Chapter 1 - Rise of the fallen

SCENE 1 – SCHOOL CAMPUS, SUNSET]

‎Rafi and Neela are sitting under a tree.

‎Neela:

‎"You know what I like most about you, Rafi?"

‎Rafi (smiling):

‎"What?"

‎Neela:

‎"You believe in us more than anything... even more than I do."

‎Rafi:

‎"Because I know this is real. You and me? We're fate."

‎They hold hands. Camera pans to golden sky.

‎---

‎[SCENE 2 – NEELA'S HOUSE, NIGHT]

‎Neela's father is yelling.

‎Neela's Father (Angry):

‎"You will not see that boy again. Do you hear me?! He's not one of us!"

‎Neela (crying):

‎"But I love him—"

‎Neela's Mother:

‎"Do you want to destroy this family's honor? Obey us, Neela."

‎Neela looks conflicted, broken.

‎---

‎[SCENE 3 – PHONE CALL, NIGHT]

‎Rafi is on the phone with Neela.

‎Rafi (desperate):

‎"Neela... please. Tell me you didn't say yes to that marriage."

‎Neela (cold voice):

‎"...I had no choice."

‎Rafi:

‎"You promised me!"

‎Neela (quietly):

‎"Promises don't survive reality."

‎Call ends. Rafi drops the phone. Silence.

‎---

‎[SCENE 4 – DARK ALLEY, NEXT DAY]

‎Two men corner Rafi. One of them is Neela's cousin.

‎Cousin:

‎"Stay away from her… or we'll take care of your family."

‎Rafi:

‎"What did you say?"

‎Other man:

‎"You heard him. One more step... and your parents are dead."

‎They walk away. Rafi stands frozen, fists clenched, eyes wide.

‎---

‎[SCENE 5 – Rafi's House, NIGHT]

‎Rafi enters to find his father lying in blood. His mother screams.

‎Rafi (screaming):

‎"Daddddd!!!"

‎---

‎[SCENE 6 – CLIFFTOP, NIGHT]

‎Rafi stands alone, wind blowing, empty eyes.

‎Rafi (narrating):

‎"They took everything...

‎My father. My mother. My love.

‎There's nothing left for me in this world."

‎He closes his eyes. Takes a step forward. Black screen.

‎---

‎[SCENE 7 – VOID / AFTERLIFE]

‎Stars. Darkness. Then, light. A glowing figure appears.

‎The Creator (Godly Voice):

‎"You died with a broken heart… and an untold story."

‎Rafi (in awe):

‎"...Where am I?"

‎Creator:

‎"Your life was stolen. I now give you a choice.

‎Return... not just to live—

‎But to destroy the evil,

‎And protect what's left of good."

‎Rafi:

‎"…Will I see them again?"

‎Creator:

‎"You will see everything. As who you are… and who you must become."

‎A flame ignites in Rafi's heart. His eyes glow red.

‎Narrator:

‎"Thus begins the legend of a fallen boy…

‎Risen by wrath…

‎Driven by destiny."
