Scene 1 – Farewell at the Gate

  (Tenzai and Naomi arrive at the edge of Lightning City. The city glows with arcs of electricity, futuristic towers, and aura-charged streets. But before entering…)

  Naomi (suddenly halting):

  "Tenzai... I need to go. My own path is calling me from here."

  Tenzai (shocked):

  "Now? But we made it together!"

  Naomi (softly):

  "You helped me remember my strength. Now it's time I find my own thunder."

  (They share a quick, silent nod — no need for more words. She turns and walks into the misted forest, vanishing like a shadow. Tenzai clenches his fists, then turns toward the glowing gates.)

  Scene 2 – Entering Lightning City

  (Tenzai walks through the electric gates.

  The city pulses with energy — people wielding all types of elemental powers train in floating arenas, zip across rail-aura highways, and meditate in charged circles.)

  Tenzai (thinking):

  "So this is the heart of power..."

  (He follows the lightning symbols etched into the roads until he reaches a massive traditional dojo, lightning-shaped architecture glowing on every edge. The doors open on their own as he steps in.)

  ---

  Scene 3 – The Challenge

  (Inside, dozens of powerful-looking students are training — some sparring, others meditating, some manipulating elements like wind, ice, and flame.)

  In the center stands the Master of the Dojo — the same man who tested Tenzai on the mountain, now in formal robes, hands behind his back.)

  Master (without turning):

  "You’ve come far... Tenzai."

  (He turns to face him. In an instant, he teleports in front of Tenzai, inches away.)

  Master (sternly):

  "You came here with the will to challenge the strongest — even me."

  Tenzai (without flinching):

  "If you're the top... then you're the wall I must break."

  Master (smiling slightly):

  "Your eyes... carry a strong will. I won’t waste it."

  (He raises a hand. The students immediately stop training and go silent.)

  Master:

  "If you wish to challenge me... defeat one of my finest students.

  The choice is yours."

  Tenzai:

  "Then tell me... who's the strongest?"

  (Without hesitation, the Master turns and raises his voice.)

  Master:

  "YUMI. STEP FORWARD."

  (The students all clear the field instantly.

  From the far corner, a girl in sleek black training gear walks out calmly — Yumi, hair tied, eyes sharp. She carries no weapon... but her aura flares subtly with deadly precision.)

  ---

  Scene 4 – Tenzai vs. Yumi Begins

  (Yumi stops in front of Tenzai. Her voice is calm and chilling.)

  Yumi:

  "You want the top? Then climb through me."

  (Before Tenzai can react, she vanishes — a blur.

  He barely dodges as hidden needle-like energy darts fly past his cheek.)

  Tenzai (grinning):

  "Fast... this is gonna be fun."

  (Yumi flashes behind him, launching a series of rapid attacks — each one with pressure-point precision.

  Tenzai blocks with aura-coated arms, sending a shockwave, but she dances around him, her movements like a lightning waltz.)

  Master (watching, quietly):

  "Speed, technique, and hidden power... Yumi is no ordinary student."

  (Tenzai slams the ground, creating a Thunder Pulse to blast her back.

  Yumi flips mid-air and lands, flicking two more invisible needles at his joints — Tenzai barely blocks again.)

  Tenzai (serious now):

  "This... is a real fight."

  ---

  Narrator (voice-over):

  "A clash of raw aura and perfect technique begins.

  Can Tenzai stand against Yumi’s storm of needles and speed...

  or will his challenge end before it truly begins?"
