Chapter 1 - " The Veil Exits "

[Opening Scene]

Dark screen… silence…

A low voice echoes:

"There are things in this world… you were never meant to see."

Suddenly—

The sky cracks.

A ripple spreads across the air like glass breaking.

For a split second…

another world is visible behind reality:

Shadows moving

Creatures watching

A distorted landscape

Then—

Everything returns to normal.

[Scene 1 – City Life]

Morning.

Students walk, laugh, scroll on their phones.

News screens flash:

"Increase in unexplained disappearances…"

"Government denies existence of 'Veil Phenomenon'…"

Cut to:

A large academy gate.

[Scene 2 – The Academy]

Text appears:

"Veil Academy – Tokyo Division"

Inside:

Students gather in a massive hall.

A Headmaster stands above them.

Headmaster:

"You are not normal humans."

Silence fills the room.

"You have awakened what we call… Veil Abilities."

Some students look excited.

Others… scared.

[Scene 3 – Power Demonstration]

Students are told to demonstrate abilities:

Fire bursts

Wind manipulation

Enhanced speed

Aura pressure shaking the room

A student collapses from overload.

The Headmaster watches calmly.

[Scene 4 – First Mystery]

Suddenly—

A screen glitches.

For a second…

A mission log appears:

"TEAM 7 – STATUS: LOST"

Then it disappears.

No one reacts.

Except one person.

[Scene 5 – Drakila Introduction]

Cut to the back of the hall.

A man leaning against the wall… eyes half-closed.

Drakila A. Gojin

He looks bored.

Almost asleep.

But his eyes open slightly.

"…that wasn't supposed to show."

[Scene 6 – Training Field]

Students train in combat.

Drakila is assigned as an instructor.

He barely explains anything.

Student:

"Are you even qualified to teach us?"

Drakila scratches his head.

"Probably not."

Students laugh.

[Scene 7 – First Fight]

A cocky high-rank student challenges him.

Student:

"I'll show you what real power looks like."

He attacks at full speed.

In one move—

Drakila dodges.

Lightly taps him.

The student collapses instantly.

Silence.

Drakila:

"…you should watch your footing."

He walks away like nothing happened.

[Scene 8 – Observation]

Later…

Drakila sits alone, watching the sky.

His eyes narrow.

"That glitch… wasn't random."

Wind moves slightly.

His shadow… lags behind for a second.

[Scene 9 – Mission Briefing]

Students are assigned their first Veil mission.

Excitement everywhere.

One student looks nervous.

Nervous Student:

"What if we don't come back?"

Everyone laughs it off.

Drakila doesn't.

[Scene 10 – Entering the Veil]

The team steps into a distortion zone.

Reality bends.

The sky darkens.

Sound becomes heavy.

The Veil has been entered.

[Final Scene – Cliffhanger]

Back at the academy…

A screen updates:

"MISSION STATUS: FAILED"

"CASUALTIES: UNKNOWN"

Then one line appears…

"ONE SUBJECT MISSING"

Cut to Drakila's face.

No emotion.

Just quiet realization.

"…it's already started."
