The message

I was in my bedroom playing minecraft, and then out of nowhere, my computer shut off. I went downstairs to the garage to check the breakers, but they were all on, so I assumed that it was a power outage. I didn't know what time it was, so I looked out of my bedroom window. It was already past moonrise. Then I saw the neighbor's house. Their lights were on. Then I remembered they have a generator. But another didn't have a generator. "...but why are their lights on?" I thought. I opened the window to listen if any generators were running. I couldn't hear anything. As in, I literally couldn't hear anything. The sky was crystal clear. There wasn't any movement. I picked up the phone to call my brother, but it didn't do anything. It displayed the time and date. I looked at the clock. It read 01:38:20 AM. It stayed like that. It wouldn't change. I looked at my fish tanks, and all of my fish were breathing. I began to think that I must have fell asleep at my desk and that I was dreaming. But I knew I was awake. I went outside. My electric meter was spinning. And one of the neighbor's cats was in my back yard, but it wasn't moving. I went to my bed and fell asleep. I woke up and got dressed. I looked at the clock on the phone. It still read 01:38:20 AM. "What the heck?!" I yelled. But the power worked now. I turned on my computer, and it didn't even boot. It just immediately turned on the screen, and it was still on minecraft where I left it. I quit minecraft and returned to the desktop. I tapped on the start button. I tapped on Opera, my favorite Internet browser, and looked at the clock. It also said 1:38 AM. I started freaking out a little. I checked my e-mail. I had a new message. I received it at 1:38 AM. I opened it, not knowing what to expect. It read "Y0UR |-|4>< R G00D, 8U7 |\|07 4$ GR347 4$ |\/|!|\|3 R!" (YOUR HACKS ARE GOOD, BUT NOT AS GREAT AS MINE ARE!) I was shocked at the message. I read the rest. "But I want to know more from you that I don't know. I might share some of mine with you in return." I wasn't sure of what to do. So I replied. "Did you make time freeze?" Immediately he replied. "Yes." Time unfroze. My doorbell rang. Do I dare answer it?
