[OPENING SCENE – EARLY MORNING, VILLAGE OF DAWNS]
Wide aerial shot of the peaceful village, birds chirping, villagers preparing for the upcoming competition.
Narrator (V.O):
"As the competition to choose the strongest hunters draws near, the Village of Dawns prepares for the challenge… but not all is peaceful under the skies."

Scene 1: Training Grounds
Camera pans to Tenzai, Midori, Zetsuya, and Eva training.
Midori (focused):
The competition’s only three days away. We need to be sharper than ever.
Tenzai (grinning):
Heh, I’ve been dreaming about this since I could walk.
Eva (smiling at Tenzai):
Try not to get too cocky. You still trip over your own punches sometimes.
Zetsuya (quietly):
Let’s not forget—we’re not just training for the competition. Something darker is coming. I can feel it.
(Tense silence. Midori nods slowly.)

Scene 2: Village Council Hall
The Village Elders sit around an ancient stone table. Aura orbs float around them.
Elder 1:
The energy waves we felt last night... they weren’t natural.
Elder 2:
It’s the sign. The upper-class monsters... they’re approaching.
Elder 3:
We must ready the defenses. The prophecy mentioned chaos before the awakening of the Chosen.

Scene 3: Evening – Waterfall Spot
The group gathers at the waterfall again, this time more serious. They sit around a small fire.
Tenzai:
Do you think we’re ready? For the competition? For... whatever’s coming?
Zetsuya:
No one’s ever truly ready. But we’ll fight anyway.
Midori (smiles gently):
We have each other. That’s what makes us different from monsters.
Eva:
...I believe in us. Especially you, Tenzai.
(Tenzai blushes slightly. Midori gives Eva a teasing glance. Zetsuya looks away, smiling slightly.)

Scene 4: NIGHTFALL – ATTACK BEGINS
Sudden tremors. The sky turns dark purple. The moon is covered by black clouds.
SFX: (Roars echo through the mountains)
Guard (shouting from the watchtower):
INCOMING! MONSTERS APPROACHING FROM THE EASTERN RIDGE!
Upper-Class Monster (deep, distorted voice):
"Break the bonds. Swallow the light."
(A horde of mutated monsters charges forward.)
Chaos erupts. Buildings explode. Villagers scream. The camera follows the kids racing into the chaos.
---
Scene 5: Battle for the Village
Zetsuya (activating dark aura):
Let’s split. Protect the elders and the village core.
Midori (activating forest barrier):
I’ll hold the front line. Tenzai, take Eva and cover the children!
Eva:
I want to help too!
Tenzai (serious tone):
Then fight with me.
Fast-paced fight montage:
Midori holding off monsters with giant vine walls and precise kunai strikes.
Zetsuya singlehandedly taking down a giant beast with a new move: “Shadow Explosion.”
Tenzai combining electric and water to trap and fry a charging monster: “Thunder Flood!”
Eva unleashes a surprise technique: “Light Beam Shard,” hinting at unknown power.
---
Scene 6: The True Threat Appears
Silence falls. A tall, horned, upper-class monster emerges from the smoke, wings spreading wide.
Upper-Class Monster (voice like thunder):
"So... these are the seeds of resistance? Pathetic."
He blasts a dark beam toward the village temple.
Zetsuya (eyes widen):
That power... it’s the same aura that controlled my parents...
Midori:
We can’t beat this one. Not yet!
Tenzai (grits teeth):
We’re not running!
The monster overpowers them, easily slamming Tenzai into the ground. The team regroups, bloodied and bruised.
---
Scene 7: A New Awakening
The ground glows beneath Tenzai as an aura surge erupts from him.
Tenzai (screaming):
I WON’T LET YOU DESTROY MY HOME!
He activates his hidden potential temporarily: Storm Heart Mode – his body flickers with unstable lightning and water energy.
Midori (shocked):
That’s... new!
Eva (whispers):
He’s glowing like the prophecy…
Tenzai launches a massive attack: “Tempest Wrath” – a cyclone of water and lightning. It injures the monster but doesn’t defeat it.
Monster (snarling):
I’ll return... and next time, your souls are mine.
The monster vanishes in a cloud of smoke.
---
Scene 8: Aftermath
The village lies in ruins. Injured people are treated. The kids sit quietly, bruised but alive.
Elder (approaches them):
You’ve done more than we could ask. But this was just the beginning.
Zetsuya:
I need to know what that monster was. If he’s the one who twisted my family...
Midori:
We’ll find answers. Together.
Eva (holding Tenzai’s arm):
And we’ll grow stronger. The competition... is more than just a test now.
Tenzai (looking at the horizon):
Let them come. We’ll be ready.
---
[ENDING SCENE – NIGHT SKY]
Stars twinkle again. Tenzai’s aura flickers faintly as he looks at his palm.
Narrator (V.O):
"As the storm fades, the true battle begins. Destiny stirs... and the world watches the rise of hunters."
