Chapter 3 - The Spark of DNA and the First War"

Scene: The Mutant's Awakening

Location: The shattered crossroads of the old city

Time: Moments after Jesh and Auri's first meeting

---

Scene Opens

Auri steps back.

Jesh hovers mid-air, his eyes fixed on the monstrous, mutated being growling before him.

> Its bones jut from its flesh.

Dark blue and black markings cover its skin.

Each breath releases a hiss of toxic steam.

---

[Jesh – narrowing his eyes, gathering gravitational energy in his palm]

> "This isn't an animal.

It was human. But its DNA lost control.

Mutation without balance… only brings destruction."

---

[The Creature – roaring, leaping toward Jesh]

With a thunderous snarl, it lunges.

Jesh surges upward, twisting mid-air — narrowly missing the creature's snapping jaws.

The impact shatters the ground below; dirt and debris explode outward.

---

[Auri – shouting from behind a fallen wall]

> "Jesh! Be careful!

That creature doesn't just attack the body—

it attacks the mind!"

---

Mind Attack Begins

The creature's eyes flash black.

A wave of darkness shoots into Jesh's pupils.

And suddenly—

Jesh sees himself.

A fractured reflection — weak, broken, exhausted.

---

[Shadow Jesh – echoing inside his head]

> "Your training was a lie.

The Devil's Routine stole your heart.

You're alone.

Even this Earth will reject you.

You're no savior, Jesh…

You're just a weapon."

---

[Jesh – trembling, wiping sweat from his face]

> "I killed my emotions long ago…

but this planet—

it's forcing them back to life."

His DNA flares again, fury and focus merging into raw power.

A crimson-black surge bursts around him—

> Gravity Pulse Burst.

---

Battle Begins

Stones, steel, and lightning orbit Jesh like satellites.

He stretches his arms forward and roars—

> "Satan Protocol: Gravity Lockdown!"

A dark gravity field collapses around the creature.

Its body compresses, convulses—then shatters into dust.

---

Silence

Auri approaches slowly.

Jesh trembles—not from fear or exhaustion,

but from the fracture within himself.

> "You said there's nothing left inside you," Auri whispers.

"But I can see it, Jesh.

There's still something—something that can save others."

---

Twist at the End

The sky ripples.

A faint blue vortex forms above, humming with metallic resonance—

"TEEE-NANNNNN."

Jesh's eyes widen.

> "Another sphere… it's activating.

Someone else has awakened—

or the Devourer has made its first move."

---

Part Two – The Call of Titanium and the Second Warrior

---

Scene Opens

Location: A high ridge overlooking the endless forest**

Time: Later that day**

Auri and Jesh track a faint electronic signal pulsing in sync with a Titanium Node.

Jesh kneels, placing his hand on the ground.

Vibrations hum through his fingertips—alive, resonant.

> "This energy… it predates mine," he murmurs.

"Someone else has awakened.

If they mutated before me…

they'll either stand beside me—

or I'll have to end them."

---

Scene Shift – Beside a Silent Lake

A boy stands at the water's edge.

Sixteen years old.

Name: Kael.

Blue lines glow across his skin.

His eyes are half-white, half-brown, and titanium dust drifts around his body like fog.

He touches a nearby tree—

and the wood begins to melt.

Its very structure unravels.

> His mutation bends reality itself.

---

[Kael – softly to himself]

> "Something inside me has awakened.

I dream… and the dreams become real.

When I fall silent…

the world starts to speak."

> "This power… it doesn't feel like mine.

It's as if something else is speaking through me."

---

[Jesh and Auri arrive]

Kael turns.

Auri steps back, but Jesh walks forward.

---

[Jesh – firm, commanding]

> "Do you even understand what's happening to you?

Your DNA is mutating.

If you can't control it,

you'll become the first vessel of the Devourer."

---

[Kael – calm smile]

> "So you're the Gravity Warrior they whisper about.

Maybe I was awakened… to stop you."

The air thickens.

Reality around Kael bends, shimmering like heat haze.

---

[Jesh – angry]

> "You don't realize what you're turning into!

This power isn't yours—it's consuming you!

You're human, Kael!

Not the Devourer's puppet!"

---

[Kael – eyes glowing, voice distorted]

> "But what if I am the Devourer now, Jesh?

Will you still be able to kill me?"

Kael lifts off the ground—

and releases a violent shockwave.

Jesh is thrown backward, skidding across the earth.

Auri screams—

> "JESH!"

---

Final Scene

Jesh rises slowly, blood dripping from his lip.

Gravity spirals around him like a storm.

> "So this is your evolution?

Fine, Kael.

If you're not afraid of yourself—

then you'd better start being afraid of me."
