Black Squad – Episode 30: "Shadow Games"
Opening Scene
Location: Mumbai – Emergency Meeting Room – 9:00 AM
The Black Squad headquarters was filled with tension. The Specter's return had shaken them.
A.C.P. Sulaiman Qazi stood at the head of the table, his face grim. The team gathered around, reviewing the latest intel.
> Qazi: "The Specter was declared dead six years ago. We were wrong. He's back… and he's targeting us."
Arjun Rathore flipped through crime scene photos, his jaw clenched.
> Arjun: "He isn't just killing random victims anymore. He's leaving clues. Taunting us."
Neha tapped on her laptop, pulling up surveillance footage.
> Neha: "I tracked his movements after the Juhu Beach murder. He disappeared into South Mumbai… but there's one place he kept returning to."
A warehouse near Colaba.
Qazi's eyes narrowed.
> Qazi: "Then that's where we go."

Scene 1: The Warehouse Ambush
Location: Colaba – Abandoned Warehouse – 11:30 PM
The squad moved in silently, their weapons drawn. The warehouse was eerily empty.
Then—a flickering television screen came to life in the center of the room.
A distorted voice echoed through the speakers.
> Specter: "Welcome back, Qazi. You took something from me once. Now it's my turn."
BOOM!
A flashbang exploded, blinding them. Before they could react, a barrage of gunfire erupted.
Masked mercenaries stormed the warehouse, forcing the squad into cover.
> Arjun: "It's a trap! We need an exit—now!"
Qazi fired back, taking down one of the gunmen. Imran and Neha moved towards a side exit, but it was barred shut.
Then, a figure appeared in the smoke.
The Specter himself.
His cold eyes locked onto Qazi.
> Specter: "You're still too slow."
Before anyone could react, he vanished into the darkness.
The squad fought their way out, but by the time they reached the street, the Specter was gone.

Scene 2: The Betrayal
Location: Mumbai – Black Squad Headquarters – 2:00 AM
Back at HQ, tensions ran high.
> Qazi: "How did he know we were coming?"
Silence.
Neha hesitated, then spoke.
> Neha: "There's only one explanation… We have a leak."
Arjun's eyes hardened.
> Arjun: "Someone inside is feeding him information."
Imran ran a trace on the security logs.
Then, he froze.
> Imran: "It's coming from one of us."
The room went dead silent.
> Qazi: "Who?"
Imran hesitated, then turned the screen.
The data logs pointed to one person.
Officer Raghav Sharma.
Raghav stood up, his face pale.
> Raghav: "No. No, this is a mistake!"
Arjun grabbed him by the collar.
> Arjun: "Then explain this."
Neha played an audio clip.
It was a call recording.
> Raghav's Voice (whispering): "They're coming. Be ready."
Raghav's expression changed.
A chilling smirk spread across his face.
> Raghav: "You really think you can stop him?"
Before anyone could react, he pulled a hidden knife from his belt.
A struggle ensued.
Qazi disarmed him, pinning him to the ground.
> Qazi: "Lock him up. We'll deal with him later."
Arjun and Imran dragged him to the holding cells.
Qazi exhaled sharply.
> Qazi: "The Specter has someone inside. Which means… he's always one step ahead."
A chilling realization dawned.
They weren't hunting him.
He was hunting them.

Location: An Underground Bunker – 3:30 AM
Zain Qazi stood in the shadows, watching as the Specter examined a set of blueprints.
> Zain: "You delivered a message tonight."
The Specter grinned.
> Specter: "They still don't know what's coming."
Zain's eyes gleamed.
> Zain: "Then let's make sure they never see it coming."
FADE TO BLACK.
