Scene 1 – The Call of Shadows
Location: Cruise Ship – Communication Room (Late Afternoon)
Damien's phone vibrates.On the screen: "Vanya – Incoming Call."He answers calmly.
Damien:"Yes, Vanya?"
Vanya (serious tone):"Damien, I just received information — there are still some dangerous people on that cruise ship.Keep yourself and all the trainees safe."
Damien (nodding):"I understand."
Vanya:"You'll reach here by tomorrow evening. Just… stay cautious."
Damien:"Yeah, I know."
Vanya (softly):"Alright. Malric and I will be waiting for all of you."
Damien:"Got it. I'll hang up now."
He ends the call and quietly places the phone down, his expression thoughtful.
Cut to:Location: Vanya Headquarters – Modern Glass Building
Vanya and Malric stand beside a tall window, city lights reflecting off the glass.
Malric (curious):"What's wrong, Vanya?"
Vanya (slightly uneasy):"I don't know… talking to Damien felt strange."
Malric (smirking):"Hmm, I always found Damien strange."
Vanya laughs softly, covering her mouth with her hand.Then she turns and walks down the stairs.
Malric (thinking, innocent tone):"What was so funny about that?Anyway… she looks nice when she laughs."
He smiles faintly as the scene fades.
Scene 2 – The Waves of Rivalry
Location: Cruise Ship – Pool Deck (Golden Hour)
Golden sunlight reflects on the water.Ren and Zeno stand at the edge of the pool.
Zeno (competitive):"Ren, how about a race?"
Ren (grinning):"Why not?"
They dive in together — water splashes everywhere.Both swim fast, side by side, laughter echoing across the deck.
From the dining hall window, Lyra and Fynn watch them.
Lyra (softly):"I don't get it…Every time they're happy or relaxed, trouble somehow finds them again."
Fynn (nodding):"Yeah… I feel the same way, Lyra. I don't know why."
Lyra glances at Zeno.
Lyra:"Zeno isn't a bad person.Even though he's from an assassin family… he's not like them."
Fynn:"I agree with you on that too."
Lyra (thoughtful):"Do you think Ren changed him?"
Fynn (calmly):"Maybe… yeah."
They smile as Ren and Zeno continue splashing and racing,their energy lighting up the golden deck — just for a while, the world feels simple again.
Scene 3 – The Vow of Revenge
Location: Cruise Ship – Top Deck (Late Afternoon Shifting to Evening)**
The wind picks up gently.The sun begins to sink into the ocean, painting the sky in hues of orange and violet.
Emi stands by the railing, her hair swaying with the sea breeze.Her eyes are calm, yet filled with determination.
Emi (thinking):"Ryen… I will find you.I'll reach Nyra Island soon — and I'll take revenge on the Troupe."
She clenches her hand tightly.
Emi (continuing softly):"Takeru… I'll avenge you, and everyone who was killed that night.And the Nyrox Stone — it will return to its rightful place… soon."
