Chapter 11 - Episode 10: Reinforcements and Resurgence

Opening Scene – The Ruins of the Hideout

(Smoke and fire rise from the remains of the team's hideout. Angel Victor, Patricia, and Teni stand amidst the wreckage, their expressions grim. The battle had been brutal, and they had barely escaped with their lives. The loss of Dayo, Femi's betrayal, and Amara's capture weighed heavily on them.)

(Angel Victor clenches his fists, staring at the destruction.)

Angel Victor: (low, furious) "We're running out of time. Mr. D is winning."

(Patricia nods, wiping blood from her forehead. Teni remains silent, deep in thought.)

Teni: (quietly) "We need more allies."

(Angel Victor turns to her, his expression unreadable. Then, he nods.)

Angel Victor: (determined) "Then let's find them."

Gathering New Blood

(The team splits up to find new warriors. They need strength, skills, and people they can trust. Patricia and Teni head to the underground fight clubs, while Angel Victor searches the city's black market for those with special abilities.)

---

The First Recruit – Zainab, the Shadow Assassin

(Patricia and Teni enter an illegal fight club, watching as a cloaked figure takes down a group of five men with inhuman speed. Her movements are fluid, deadly, and precise. When the fight ends, she removes her hood, revealing a scarred but beautiful face—Zainab, an ex-assassin with shadow-manipulating powers.)

Patricia: (grinning) "I like her."

Teni: (nodding) "She'll do."

(Zainab studies them cautiously, then smirks.)

Zainab: (intrigued) "You want to fight Mr. D? Count me in."

(One down.)

The Second Recruit – Uche, the Warlock

(Meanwhile, Angel Victor tracks down Uche, a mysterious warlock who controls powerful elemental magic. Uche lives in an abandoned temple, surrounded by floating symbols and glowing runes.)

(When Angel Victor approaches, Uche's eyes flash with recognition.)

Uche: (calmly) "Sango… you finally came."

(Angel Victor frowns.)

Angel Victor: (cautious) "You know who I am?"

Uche: (smirking) "I know power when I see it. And I know war is coming."

(Lightning crackles around Angel Victor's axe. Uche grins, stepping forward.)

Uche: (grinning) "I'll fight with you."

(Two down.)

The Third and Fourth Recruits – Jason and Amina

(Back at a secret underground resistance camp, Patricia and Teni meet Jason, an expert weapons engineer, and Amina, a former special forces operative with superhuman reflexes. Both have been fighting against Mr. D's forces in their own way.)

(After a brief conversation, Jason crosses his arms, skeptical.)

Jason: (raising an eyebrow) "Why should we follow you?"

(Patricia smirks and gestures toward Angel Victor, who steps forward, his presence commanding.)

Angel Victor: (firmly) "Because I'm going to burn Mr. D's empire to the ground. And I need warriors."

(A tense silence. Then… Jason chuckles and nods.)

Jason: (grinning) "Alright, I'm in."

(Amina simply nods in agreement, her expression unreadable.)

(The team is complete. Four new warriors have joined the fight.)

---

A Message from Amara

(As the team regroups, ready to plan their next move, a strange signal interrupts their meeting. A hologram flickers to life—Amara.)

(She stands in a dark lab, wires connected to her body. But her eyes… are different. Cold. Empty.)

Amara: (robotic tone) "Angel Victor… you should have saved me."

(The screen glitches, revealing Mr. D standing beside her, smirking.)

Mr. D: (mocking) "She's mine now. And she's coming for you."

(The signal cuts off. The room is silent.)

(Angel Victor grips his axe, his eyes burning with rage.)

Angel Victor: (darkly) "Then we take the fight to him."

(The war has begun.)
