-Following is a chapter-by-chapter '''summary of ''Saving Charlie''''', a novel about [[Hiro Nakamura]]'s quest to save [[Charlie Andrews]].
-__NOTOC__
-{{Saving Charlie TOC}}
-==Summary==
-===Chapter 1===
-In the bathroom of the [[Burnt Toast Diner]], [[Hiro Nakamura]] peacocks in front of the mirror, smitten with [[Charlie]], despite having just met her and not knowing her last name.
-===Chapter 2===
-[[Hiro]] and his traveling companion [[Ando Masahashi]], weary from their long journey from [[Las Vegas]], stop at the [[Burnt Toast Diner]] for breakfast. Not yet caffeinated, Ando complains about the lack of food choices, while Hiro is just happy to be out of the car. [[Charlie]] is their server and asks to take their order. Hiro is immediately attracted to the waitress and kicks himself for not knowing enough English to talk to her. He tries to have Ando (who speaks English fairly well) talk for him, but Ando doesn't want any part in helping Hiro hit on "some poor defenseless girl". Charlie listens to them speaking Japanese and tries to use some words she learned from a Japanese phrase book she got for [[Charlie's birthday party|her birthday]]. She says that lately she has been able to [[enhanced memory|remember]] everything she reads. They settle on their order, and Charlie leaves to continue working.
-While she is gone, Hiro laments his bad luck in love, but feels that today is his lucky day. He debates asking Charlie out on a date, and Ando doesn't have any faith in Hiro's luck with women. When Hiro works up the courage to talk to Charlie, he gets scared and excuses himself to the men's room. There, he wrestles with his confidence, painfully remembering a bad experience he had with [[Miyoki Akayawa]]. Finally deciding that this time would be different, Hiro walks out of the bathroom full of confidence. However, the atmosphere in the diner is suddenly completely different. Ando approaches Hiro, says "It's Charlie", and motions to the diner's storeroom. In there, [[Lloyd|an officer]] is sobbing and giving orders, a [[Lynette|waitress]] is on her knees, and everybody is whispering, crying, and scared. Charlie is dead.
-===Chapter 3===
-[[Hiro]] remembers that in his final year of high school, he met with the [[Reiko Asakawa|guidance counselor]] and told her that he believed his destiny was to follow in [[Kaito Nakamura|his father's]] footsteps, work at [[Yamagato Industries]], and eventually take over the company. But when asked what he ''wanted'' to do, Hiro expressed his desire to become [[Bushido]] warrior.
-Years later, he finds himself working at Yamagato. Bored and frustrated with his life's direction, Hiro manages to [[space-time manipulation|turn back time]] by about one second. He excitedly tells [[Ando]], who doesn't believe him and teases him instead. That night on the [[Tokyo subway|subway]] home, Hiro successfully teleports to [[Times Square]] in the future. He sees a ''[[9th Wonders!]]'' comic book with his picture on it, and decides to seek out the comic's writer-illustrator, [[Isaac Mendez]]. However, when Hiro gets to [[Isaac's loft]], he sees a [[painting]] of an [[explosion]] in [[New York City]], paintings of himself, and he finds Isaac murdered with his [[brain removal|brain removed]].
-===Chapter 4===
-In the present, [[Hiro]] connects [[Isaac]]'s murder with [[Charlie]]'s murder, calling the killer "[[Sylar|Brain Man]]". As [[Sheriff Davidson]] mournfully interrogates suspects, Hiro resolves to go back in time one day and somehow save [[Charlie Andrews]]. Ando protests, and tries to encourage Hiro to stick to his original missing of [[Future Hiro's message|saving the world]]. Hiro leaves anyway.
-===Chapter 5===
-When [[Hiro]] was four, [[Kaito]] explained the meaning behind the small plaque that was kept on the wall of his [[Yamagato|his office]]. The plaque read, "This is not a fairy tale". Kaito explains that there are no happy endings. Hiro agrees, but is more interested in the "happiness in the middle".
