SCENE 1 — THE CALM BEFORE THE CHAOS
It's 2 AM.Mark's chilling at his parents' house after years of fights, wars, and broken bones.He's finally resting.His mom makes chai. His dad jokes about Mark retiring to become a yoga teacher.
Suddenly—BOOM. The lights cut. Windows explode.The house is under attack.
Mark jumps into defense mode — throws hands, breaks skulls — but the attackers are elite.
Smoke. Screams. And then…A silhouette steps through the fire.
SCENE 2 — THE VILLAIN IS REVEALED
MARK (gritting his teeth):"…No. It can't be you."
DAGGER walks in.Leather coat. Blade on his back. Scar under his left eye — the one Mark gave him years ago.
DAGGER:"Long time, brother."
MARK:"You were dead. I saw the blood. The fire—"
DAGGER (grinning):"You left me to burn. And now… I burn the ones you love."
FLASHBACK:Years ago, Dagger and Mark were teammates in an underground martial brotherhood — "The Crimson Circle." But when the group turned dark, Mark fled. Dagger didn't. He rose.
SCENE 3 — THE FIRST FIGHT
Mark charges in RAGE.Dagger counters like a demon — precise, cold, brutal.
Mark hits with Flash Knee
Dagger dodges and cuts his shoulder
Mark grabs a frying pan (Mom's) — swings
Dagger blocks and breaks it in half
They slam through a table, crash into the TV
DAGGER:"You got soft."
MARK:"You got evil."
But Dagger is too fast. Too cruel.He stabs Mark in the leg.Knocks him down.
Mark's parents try to help — but Dagger coldly walks past Mark…
And kills them. Both. Right in front of him.
Mark screams, crawling toward them — but it's too late.Blood pools. Rain falls. Dagger vanishes into the night.
SCENE 4 — THE BURNING HOUSE
Flames roar.Mark crawls out, bloodied, broken, sobbing.
He looks at his hands.At the sky.At the dagger left stabbed in the wall.
MARK (whispers):"…You started a war…"
His eyes turn dark.Fire reflects in his gaze.
SCENE 5 — THE REBIRTH
Next day.The house is gone.Mark stands at the graves. Alone. No words. Just silence.
Then:He opens a buried trunk.Inside: old fighting gear. Blood-stained gloves. A necklace from his father.
He wraps his hands. Tight.Puts on the coat.Looks in the mirror.
MARK (coldly):"…I'm coming for you, Dagger. And this time… I don't miss."
