Prologue
The story starts with flashes of Okabe's experiences; Kurisu and Doctor Nakabachi, her father choking her, charging to attack Doctor Nakabachi when suddenly Kurisu rushes in between, and lastly Kurisu covered in blood fallen against him. The time machine's hatch opens upon world line divergence 1.129848%, 2010/08/21 17:56:01hrs.

Suzuha pulls the bloodied and in shock Okabe from the time machine. Mayuri and Daru rush over in concern, and Suzuha sends her father for a towel, water, and some clothes. Okabe, wishing desperately for nothing but to be left alone, falls to his knees under his extreme fatigue, the hopelessness, and the crushing weight of having killed Kurisu.

When Mayuri asks what happened, he admits that he killed Kurisu and everything is his fault. Suzuha tries to reason with him to try again, but fails as Okabe knows how impossible it is to escape world line convergence no matter what you try. Suzuha comes to the point where she is going to slap Okabe in an attempt to bring him back to his senses, but Mayuri stops her. Mayuri does not believe that it is alright to force someone who is so shattered. Suzuha argues that at this rate the future will not change, but Mayuri asks her why Okabe alone has to shoulder the burden of the future. Suzuha explains that Okabe has the ability to observe the world, but Mayuri does not change her opinion. That ability was something that Okabe had not wished for, and she thinks that Okabe might only get hurt once more if they try again. For one person to change the world's future must be impossible.

Suzuha starts to mention the Steins Gate, but stops and explains instead that she understands Mayuri's feelings, but she traveled to this time with the future on the line and can no longer return to 2036. Giving up so easily is not an option for her. She addresses Okabe telling him that the time machine has a limited amount of fuel, but there is some surplus. However, it is only enough to travel 344 days. Before a full year has passed it will become impossible to reach July 28 even when making a one way trip. Before it comes to that, she will jump to the past again even if it is only her who goes.

However, by this time Okabe is so far gone in his exhaustion and shock that though he can tell that someone is speaking to him, he cannot make out the words. As he begs internally to be released, Mayuri embraces him. She calls out to him that it is alright to not keep trying, that he can cry, and that she is by his side. Okabe begins to brokenly sob.

He doesn't know what brought Mayuri to say such things, but as his tears overflow, he decides to forget everything and that is why from that day forward he never visits the Future Gadget Laboratory.
