Setting: Mumbai city, Lokhandwala, New Link Road
Day: Monday(15th February 2021)
Akshay: Well first of all both of you are physically and mentally strong but that's where your similarities end and where the differences begin. You are a merciful person and in some way upright but as of now Ranveer is ruthless, he will kill anyone who betrays him or even slightly threatens him, we've already seen this in the mall and I am pretty sure that you guys did not forget what you had seen in the mall.
Samar (Thinking): Akshay is right what I had seen in the mall was a terrifying side of him which was only comparable to that day!
Akshay: Your strength comes from trying to help people but his strength comes from being ruthless enough to finish his enemies. In the end, you are like a hero who wants to do the right thing but Ranveer is like a villain who will do anything to achieve his goal but normally he would avoid sacrificing anyone.
(Samar and Tania's eyes widen)
(Akshay realized he spoke a bit too much)
Akshay: Well that's what I think I mean I can be wrong too, you know.
(Everybody gets a bit silent)
Samar: You know you're right he's ruthless but he's far from a villain. I think he's just a person who wants to save the people he cares about.
I don't know if he cares about us but I can see that he does care for those three girls and now Tia also. I bet if we asked him about those three girls he will say that he's helping them out because he has made some deal with them.
(Tania and Akshay look at Samar)
Samar: What?!
Akshay: Nothing it's just! I know you guys were friends before he and I met so I was just wondering since what age were you guys friends?
Tania: If I remember correctly you told me that you and Ranveer were friends since the age of 4, right?
Samar: You're right!
Akshay: Wow! You guys have been friends for such a long time?
Samar: Sometimes even I forget that it has been 13 years already. Hey by the way Ranveer gave you a bag, right? What's in it?
Akshay: Oh yeah I completely forgot about the bag.
(Akshay looks at the bag that Ranveer had given him. Akshay opened the bag)
Akshay (Shocked): What?!
Tania: What happens?!
Samar: Yeah! Is something wrong?!
Akshay: How did Ranveer get all these phones, speakers, watches, blue tooth speakers and earphones?!
Samar: Are you serious?
Akshay: Yeah! Look at this!
(Akshay showed the bag to Tania and Samar)
(When Samar and Tania looked at the bag they realized something)
Tania: When we were going through the tunnel Ranveer told the others and me to move forward after that he ran back to the shop. I think he went to get all these appliances.
Samar: Yeah that's right!
Akshay (Thinking): Oh God!! Did he just go back to the shop to get these devices?! That's insane!! He risked his life for some mobile phones!! Oh Well! since he has given me these devices I will get to work.
(Akshay removes his laptop from his bag and switches it on and starts doing his work)
(Samar looked at Akshay programming and asked)
Samar: Say... for how many years have you been programming?
(Akshay thinks for a while and answers)
Akshay: I guess since when I was five years old.
(Samar and Tania get a bit shocked)
Samar: Are you serious?! You've been programming since you were that young?!
Tania: Wow! Now that I think about it what was I doing when I was that young?
Samar: How did you even learn to programme?!
Akshay: Well my uncle used to be a programmer so I learned it from him.
Samar: I see!
Akshay: Well I gotta programme these devices and it's gonna take a bit longer than before.
Samar: Okay we will not disturb you anymore.
(After that Tania and Samar didn't speak a word to Akshay. Akshay continued to programme the devices and Samar continued to drive the car.)
(The sun had started to set)
(After sometime Samar looked at Akshay and asked)
Samar: Hey! Do you know where we are going?!
Tania: Yeah! Even I wondered about that.
Akshay: He told me that we need to go to the most nearby hotel.
Samar: Did he tell you which one?
Akshay: Yeah... It's about 5 minutes far away, I will tell you to stop when we reach there.
(Samar understands and says)
Samar: Okay!
(Samar continued driving)
(After sometime Akshay told Samar to stop the car as he saw Ranveer also stop the car)
Akshay: Stop!
(Samar topped the car)
(Akshay got out of the car)
Akshay: Let's go!
(Samar and Tania listen to Akshay and they come out of the car)
(In Ranveer's car)
(Ranveer wakes up Sana, Sara and Samaira)
Ranveer: Come on! Wake up now!
Samaira (Half Asleep): What happened were we attacked?
(Sana and Sara also wake up)
Sana: Attack?! What?!
Sara: Did something happen??
Ranveer: Nothing happened! Just wake up, will you?!
(Sana, Sara and Samaira wake up)
(They look at Ranveer)
Ranveer: Get ready with your weapons!
(The girls look at the hotel in front of which the car was parked in)
Samaira: Are we going to enter this hotel?
Ranveer: Yes!
Ranveer: You already seem to understand what we're about to do so let's just get on with it!
(Sana, Sara and Samaira get ready with their weapons)
(Ranveer looks at Tia sleeping in the backseat. So he took her in his arms and he used his jacket to tie Tia tightly to him so that he could carry her without any hindrance)
(Ranveer sees Akshay, Samar and Tania come out of their car)
(Once Ranveer sees that everybody has come out of the car he looks at them and says)
Ranveer: So listen!
(Everybody started to listen to Ranveer attentively)
Ranveer: This hotel is 30 floors tall. Normally I would've just told you guys to take any room on the first few floors but this time we're aiming for the top floor which is a penthouse. Do you guys have any questions?
(Everybody looks at each other and nod their head gesturing "no")
Ranveer: Then I guess we should get going!
(Ranveer turns around and opens the hotel's entry and there are already many zombies in the hotel's lobby)
Ranveer (Coldly smiles): Well zombies...Meet my little friend!!
(Ranveer starts shooting at the zombies and everyone follows his lead and all of them start to shoot continuously at the zombies)
Tania: This is the first time I am using a gun. For some reason, it is scary and exciting at the same time.
Samar: You'll get used to it!
Ranveer: Samar! go to the receptionist table and check if there's a master key card over there!
Ranveer: Akshay cover Samar while he does that!
Akshay: Got it!
Samar: Got it!
(Both Samar and Akshay run towards the hotel reception)
(Tia wakes up and looking at the situation she gets scared and looks at Ranveer)
(Ranveer realizes that Tia was awake and she was looking at him)
Ranveer: Don't worry Tia. Just close your eyes and don't open them till I tell you to, okay?
(Tia nods her head gesturing "yes")
(She closes her eyes and duties her face on Ranveer's chest)
Akshay: Did you find it?
Samar: Wait a minute!!
(Samar continuously searches for the key)
Samar: Found it!!
Akshay: Finally! Let's go now!
(Samar quickly comes out of the reception but Akshay and he was in front of many zombies. Akshay and Samar start to shoot at the zombies but after some time, they run out of bullets and don't know what to do.)
(The zombies started to close in on them)
Samar (Worried): Damn it! What do we do?!
Akshay: Let's just hope that we get isekai'd in a place full of magic and elves!
Samar (Confused): What?!
Ranveer: You're not getting isekai'd today!
(Ranveer removes his sword and decapitates every zombie's head that was in front of Samar and Akshay)
(Samar and Akshay sigh with relief)
(Ranveer removes two magazines from his utility belt and tossed them towards Akshay and Samar)
Ranveer: Let's go! We don't have time left!
(Akshay and Samar follow Ranveer)
Akshay (Thinking): Thank God!! I was saved. I thought I was going to be gnawed on by those fitting zombies. I never thought that I would be saved by Ranveer but thank God that I was!
Samar (Thinking): Thank God!! I was saved by Ranveer I thought that I would never be able to see Tania ever again!! Wait thinking of her...
Samar (Worried): Hey where did the girls an Tania go?!
Akshay (Worried): Yeah! and wasn't Tia with you?! Where did she go?!
Ranveer: Calm down! All of them have gone to the 30th floor an they are safe!
(Samar sighs with relief)
(Ranveer, Samar an Akshay enter a lift)
Samar: Thanks Ranveer.
Ranveer: For what?!
Samar: For saving my life.
Akshay: Yeah! I thought I was about to die too!
Ranveer: I saved you guys because you are useful to me.
