Gangsters:Rise To The Top

Scene 1 – The Calm Before the Storm

Dibrugarh Academy – Classroom 2-B (10:30 AM)

The classroom was chaotic as usual. Students were laughing, chatting, and some were throwing paper balls across the room.

Mri, Ishu, Kai, and Aamon sat at the back, trying to blend in.

Kai was leaning back in his chair, balancing a pencil on his finger. "So, we're officially on everyone's hit list, huh!"

Ishu sighed. "Yeah. But we can't waste time on small fights. We need to find out where 'he' is."

Mri stayed quiet, staring out the window. His fingers lightly drummed against his desk.

Aamon glanced at him. "Mri, you good?"

Mri snapped out of his thoughts. "Yeah. Just thinking."

Kai smirked. "Thinking about how to beat up that scar-faced idiot?"

Ishu rolled his eyes. "Kai, stop obsessing over that guy."

Kai grinned. "Hey, I just don't like his face."

Before anyone could respond—

> BANG!

The classroom door swung open violently.

A student stumbled inside, bleeding from the forehead.

Everyone went silent.

The boy collapsed onto the floor, gasping. "T-The Vultures… They attacked—"

Another student ran in behind him. "It's a fight! They're jumping people in the courtyard!"

Mri, Ishu, Kai, and Aamon exchanged glances.

Kai grinned. "Finally."

Ishu sighed. "We're seriously doing this?"

Mri stood up, cracking his knuckles. "Let's go."

Scene 2 – The First Fight

Dibrugarh Academy – Courtyard (10:45 AM)

By the time they arrived, the courtyard was a battlefield.

The Red Vultures were attacking a group of students—some fought back, but most were getting beaten down.

A tall guy in a black jacket with red stripes stood in the middle, watching. Scar-faced guy.

> "Where's the new guy?"

His eyes locked onto Mri.

Mri stepped forward. "You looking for me?"

Scar-face grinned. "Yeah. You disrespected our people. So now, we send a message."

He snapped his fingers. "Get them."

> Twenty Vultures rushed forward.

Ishu muttered. "They don't waste time, huh?"

Aamon smirked. "Alright, let's warm up."

Kai cracked his neck. "Time for some fun."

Then—

The fight exploded.

Scene 3 – The Three Souls vs. The Red Vultures

Kai was the first to move.

He ducked under a punch, spun, and drove his elbow into someone's ribs. The guy crashed into another Vulture, knocking them both down.

Another came at him with a flying kick. Kai sidestepped and grabbed the guy's leg—then SLAMMED him into the ground.

Ishu fought with cold precision.

A Vulture swung a metal pipe at him—

Ishu dodged, caught the pipe, and drove his knee into the guy's stomach.

Another rushed him from behind—Ishu spun and smashed his elbow into his jaw.

Aamon fought differently—brutally.

He grabbed a Vulture by the collar and slammed him against a wall.

> "Pathetic."

Aamon let go—and punched him so hard he fell unconscious.

Mri?

He was a different beast.

A guy rushed at him with a knife—Mri caught his wrist, twisted it, and snapped it.

The guy screamed, dropping the knife.

Mri stepped forward and drove his fist into his gut, sending him flying back.

Two more attacked him at once—Mri ducked, kicked one's legs out from under him, then uppercut the other into the air.

In less than three minutes—

> Ten Vultures were down.

Scar-face's grin disappeared.

"Tch. Looks like I underestimated you."

He stepped forward, cracking his knuckles. "Let me fix that."

Mri smirked. "Bring it."

Scene 4 – The Real Fight Begins

Scar-face moved fast.

In an instant—he was in front of Mri.

Mri barely dodged the first punch, but the second one grazed his cheek.

Kai's eyes widened. "Damn, he's fast."

Ishu analyzed. "He's different from the rest. He's trained."

Scar-face kept attacking—punches, elbows, kicks.

Mri dodged, blocked, countered—but the guy was relentless.

Then—Scar-face's fist connected with Mri's ribs.

> CRACK!

Mri staggered back.

Aamon's eyes darkened. "Mri—"

Mri exhaled sharply. Then he grinned.

Scar-face blinked. "What?"

Mri wiped the blood from his lip. "You hit like a kid."

Before Scar-face could react—

Mri exploded forward.

One punch—Scar-face blocked.

Second punch—he dodged.

Third—

> Mri spun and landed a kick straight to his jaw.

Scar-face stumbled.

Mri didn't let up. He grabbed his collar and drove his knee into his stomach.

Scar-face choked, eyes wide.

Then—Mri SLAMMED him into the ground.

Silence.

The remaining Vultures froze.

Mri stepped back, staring down at Scar-face. "Stay down."

Scar-face tried to stand—but his legs gave out.

He fell back onto his knees.

The Vultures panicked.

> "B-Boss is down?!"

"Impossible—"

"Screw this, let's get out of here!"

One by one, they ran.

Mri sighed, cracking his neck. "That was annoying."

Kai laughed. "Holy shit. That was badass."

Ishu smirked. "So much for a 'message.'"

Aamon watched the fleeing Vultures. "This isn't over."

He was right.

Because from the rooftop, someone was watching.

A figure in a dark coat.

> "Interesting. Very interesting."

The real war was just beginning.
