Master is here

Early Morning

Isobel on call

Unknown Voice (mysterious, calm):

"I will be there soon..."

Isobel:

"Hmm. Okay."

Call ends.

Next Morning – Living Room

Nahru (yawning):

"Why'd you call us so early? It's Sunday..."

Juliet (stretching, annoyed):

"Yeah, I didn't even get time for my morning skincare..."

Isobel (calm but serious):

"Wait for Ryan. I'll explain everything once he's here."

Everyone waits impatiently. Tension slowly builds.

Damian (worried):

"...I think something's wrong. Should I go check on him—"

Door creaks open

Juliet (relieved):

"Ah, finally you're here."

Ryan (smiling brightly):

"Sorry, got caught up in something."

Isobel (nods):

"It's fine. Now, onto the main topic."

Everyone turns toward her, curiosity visible.

Isobel:

"He's coming to see you all..."

Damian:

"...Who?"

Isobel:

"The one who sent me here. After Ryan."

Juliet (nervous):

"Wait, really ? Nahru, let's practice our intro. I'm so nervous."

Nahru (nervous grin):

"Okie dokie... even I'm kinda scared."

Ryan (teasing):

"Look who's confused."

Nahru (snaps):

"You got a problem? Wanna fight?"

Damian (stern):

"Guys, not now. Save it for later."

Ryan:

"You always ruin our fun."

Nahru:

"Agree. 100% agree."

Damian:

"You really want a fight now?"

Juliet sighs.

Isobel (suddenly alert):

"...He's here."

A loud buzz echoes through the room.

Isobel:

"Oh—He's here."

Everyone (in panic):

"WHAT?!"

They scramble. The door opens slowly. A man enters—black-haired, young in appearance, calm as death.

Juliet (blushing):

"Is he the one...? *Damn... he's hot."

Ryan (grinning):

"Well... that's one good-looking guy."

Damian (nodding):

"He sure is..."

Nahru stares intently, serious.

Isobel (proudly):

"Meet him—the one who beat Shadow Shun Kazama... the one who sent me here."

Shun (emotionless):

"Call me Master from today."

Only Shun hears the voice within him.

Inner Voice:

"Thank god you didn't ruin the intro."

Shun (replying him):

"It's easy. I just copy what you say."

Introductions Begin

Everyone introduces themselves. Nahru speaks last.

Nahru:

"You already know about me."

Shun (coolly):

"Yeah. I know."

Inner Voice (in Shun's mind):

"Is he... Zien?"

Shun:

"Yes."

Shun (aloud):

"I don't care what you've done. And I won't stop you from fighting them... I'm here to observe."

Shun thinks silently:

"I might've found a really strong one here."

Nahru (bowing):

"Thank you. It's an honor."

Damian:

"You... know him?"

Nahru:

"He's famous. Across the universe."

Juliet (amazed):

"That's... incredible."

Ryan (thinking):

"Something's... off about him."

Shun Looks at Each of Them

Shun (to Ryan):

"Show me your strength."

Shun (to all):

"I'm here to test you all."

He turns to Juliet with calm eyes.

Shun:

"About your accidental powers... If you stop now, you can live a normal life. But if you continue—those powers become yours. Are you sure?"

Juliet (without hesitation):

"Yes, Master. I've made my decision. I want to fight with them."

Juliet (curious about something ):

"But why did you... smile when you looked at Isobel?"

Damian:

"Yeah, I saw that too."

Isobel (sighs):

"...I didn't tell you before. He's my father."

Everyone:

"WHATTT?!"

Ryan (shocked):

"How old are you?!"

Shun (calm):

"970."

Everyone (again):

"WHATTT?! Then how do you look so young?!"

Shun:

"That's just... how I was born."

Ryan (confused):

"What...?"

Shun:

"Nothing."

Nahru (grinning):

"Oh, I'm just 20 years younger than you."

Everyone stares at Nahru in disbelief.

Training Room – Trial Begins

All stand before Shun.

Shun:

"Attack me. All of you."

Damian:

"All together?"

Shun:

"Yes."

Juliet:

"Powers too?"

Shun:

"Do as you please."

Nahru (whispering to Ryan):

"I'm not going all out. He's beyond us."

Ryan:

"Is he really that strong?"

Nahru:

"Way more than you can imagine."

Action Begins

Isobel charges, kicks—miss.

Juliet hurls a fire blast—Shun vanishes.

Nahru chains him—Damian punches—Shun escapes like smoke.

Ryan turns into air, creates an air-ring trap—Juliet and Isobel join.

Damian forms a chamber behind—traps him. Nahru prepares a white blast.

Shun (smirking):

"Impressive..."

He breaks the chamber.

Shun:

"You must train harder to truly restrain an enemy."

He appears beside Juliet—punch—sends her into a wall.

Kicks Isobel—blocks, but fails.

Grabs Nahru and Damian—smashes their heads together.

Nahru (groaning):

"Damnnn… that hurts..."

Shun (gently):

"Train harder. Reach your true power. You are... a worthy opponent."

Nahru (grinning):

"I am still hard to handle ..."

Shun:

"Heh. I know."

Now he rushes Ryan—dodges, then lands a heavy blow.

---

Aftermath

Everyone lies bruised, exhausted.

Shun:

"Do not be disheartened. This was only the beginning. You fought well—together."

Juliet:

"...So, did we pass?"

Shun:

"Yes."

He pats her head, gently wipes blood from Isobel's face, then pat Nahru head , nods at each one with pride, then turns to leave.

One Last Question

Ryan:

"Master... That day when I was being bullied... when I insulted Juliet... I saw you. But I sensed no power from you. Still don't. Why?"

Everyone stares, waiting.

Shun (without turning):

"Because... I have no powers."

Everyone:

"WHAT?!"

Ryan (in disbelief):

"...Then how strong are you?"

Shun:

"I'm among the six strongest in the universe."

Inner Voice:

"You mean... third?"

Shun (mind reply):

"No."

Unknown Location

A dark room. A man sits in shadows, fury in his eyes.

Unknown Man (growling):

"I can sense you..."
