## Story Arc

The official origins of Jayden Tries are unknown, but it is revealed in Jayden Tries 2: Save the World Again that he originates from Reality-EJEA. In his reality, most of society has fallen flat and the world is in a post-apocalyptic state. Jayden Tries: The Battle for Zero reveals that Jayden, Alexia Mourao (Reality-EJEA) and Alex Williamson (Reality-EJEA) are the lone survivors of the war that cost them their home.

Time works differently in Reality-EJEA, so it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when the following events occurred in continuum with Reality-JTCU.

Years ago, Jayden witnessed the death of Alex to the hand of somebody who looked just like him. After the variant left, Jayden found a small shining object in a bush - which after studying he found was a fragment of the Zero Point. After years of questioning what he should do with such an item, he decides to dedicate his living days to tracking down the variant of himself responsible for Alex's death.

He recruits Freddy Fazbear, Scott "Animdude" Cawthon and Creeper to try to kill the variant, but all three are unsuccessful so he decides to take matters into his own hands. After studying the space-time continuum for years, Jayden discovers the ability to travel between realities, and heads to Reality-JTCU himself. Upon his arrival, he tracks down the variant to confront him, but is pushed down a flight of stairs. Upon restabilising, Reality-JTCU's Alex reappears and forces him back to Reality-EJEA.

A year later, Jayden is forced back to Reality-JTCU by a frustrated Alexia. While there, Jayden appears much more reluctant to attack anybody because of his prior failure, so he gets side-tracked and buys a new pair of sunglasses. However, the JTCU heroes track him down and confront him. After a slight beating from Reality-JTCU's Alexia, Jayden decides to speak with them. In an attempt to see if Jayden is lying about his past, he and the other variant use the Fragment to view one another's memories. Shockingly, it would reveal Jayden was wrong about his other self and profusely apologises for his actions before heading home.

Later on in the year, Jayden feels terrible about the pain he'd put Reality-JTCU's heroes through and decides to deliver Christmas gifts to them to make up for his mistakes. He finds presents for Alex, Jayden, Alexia, Alfie, Keira, Leo and Sam and heads out to deliver them. Whilst delivering gifts to Alfie, he meets Daniel Chapman, who we learn is the one responsible for Reality-EJEA's Alex's death at the end of Battle for Zero. It wouldn't be until Jayden visits his other self that he would learn this. Upon racing back to Alfie's, Daniel had already gone. He returns home to Alexia, who forces him to enjoy Christmas instead of stressing himself out again, so Jayden enjoys one day of calm for the festive season.

Not long after this, Jayden finds his Fragment to be glowing abnormally. Upon touching it, he is thrown into The Last Reality, where he once again comes face to face with Chapman, who he now beats in anger. He expresses his fury that Daniel had the potential to do some real good with his abilities, but wasted it on a totalitarian idea that requires annihilation. Daniel simply laughs and sends him back home, but suggests they meet again to test his skill. Once home, Jayden recruits the help of Reality-JTCU's heroes - who he has now befriended - to take Chapman down.

During the Fight for All Reality, Jayden is badly beaten by Daniel, and is on the verge of collapse. Daniel mocks his inability to save his friends, but Jayden insists that he will always try, no matter what. In an instant, the Zero Point deems him worthy of being it's herald, which grants him the Finale Suit and he claims the heroic title of The Amazing Jayden Tries. After the battle, the JTCU heroes suggest that Reality-EJEA's Jayden and Alexia - alongside Millie - could probably return back to their reality as opposed to living in the ruined one the once called home. They agree to this, and Jayden and Alexia find a new home in Reality-JTCU.

A few months into his new life, Jayden is finding the hero life difficult, so he enlists the help of Joe to become a corrupt lawyer. He finds cases in Sam and Ethan, but overall decides the profession isn't made for somebody like him and that he should return to being Reality's greatest protector. Alexia isn't happy with Jayden's decisions and has Hannah Danderson sue him. Jayden then hires Saul Goodman to help him escape these legal troubles, and he and Alexia presumably make up off-screen.

Upon embracing his position as a powerful vigilante, Jayden notices a disruption in the time stream in the 1600s. He goes to investigate and discovers a weary and confused Harry Dignum, Nathan Wightman and Spencer Digby who have just defeated The Kraken, through harnessing the powers of The Otamatone (with the aid of Oliver Cromwell). Demanding answers he takes the three with him back to present day, it is to be assumed that they are on good terms after this.
