Chapter 3 - **Episode 3 – "When the Rain Fell, Legends Laughed"

Tagline: When hope arrives in a rainbow jacket, and chaos stops for a low-battery phone.

---

SCENE 1 – The Dying Light

Visual:

The camera pans up from a battlefield in ruin — smoke swirls, blood stains the soil, thunder rolls across a bruised sky. Trees stand blackened, stripped by flames.

In the center, a lone figure kneels — bloodied, broken, but unbowed.

SIM HOYUN — his face battered, one arm limp, chest rising and falling with shallow breaths.

A close-up reveals one eye still open, glowing with sheer will.

SIM (low, raspy, defiant):

🗨️ "I'm... still alive."

The camera zooms out — fallen soldiers lie behind him, civilians have been evacuated. Only Sim stands between the city... and the monster.

---

SCENE 2 – The Eye of Destruction

A towering being hovers inches above ground, cloaked in black and crimson tattered robes. Its face is hidden behind a twisted metal mask, only one glowing eye visible — burning like an eclipse.

CLOAK MASTER (voice like grinding tectonic plates):

🗨️ "You dare defy me? Witness... the Eye of Destruction."

It raises its head. The eye opens — a swirling black vortex surrounded by fiery runes.

Suddenly, the clouds spiral. The sky goes dark. The atmosphere thickens — like the calm before a superstorm.

---

SCENE 3 – The Rain Falls... and a Stranger Appears

Just as the beam is about to unleash —

Everything halts. The wind dies. Lightning freezes mid-bolt.

Then... a raindrop falls.

Another. And another.

Out of nowhere —

A bright, multicolored umbrella floats down, twirling gently through the sky like a dream.

Music shifts — jazzy, whimsical.

A smooth, flirtatious voice echoes:

??? (voice full of swagger):

🗨️ "Hold it, darling… I'll take it from here."

🗨️ "Hope has arrived — with a hint of flair."

Camera pans up —

He stands there: half tuxedo, half hoodie. Hair dyed two-toned. Bright yellow boots. Spinning a rainbow lollipop, with a grin cheekier than death.

He winks.

---

SCENE 4 – The World Watches

Every screen on Earth lights up.

People freeze, watching in disbelief.

Random Bystander 1:

🗨️ "OH MY GOD! It's HIM! Earth's Last Hope!"

Random Bystander 2:

🗨️ "Wait—what?! This meme guy is real?!"

Two Onlookers in a Void:

🗨️ "Well, well… the chaos clown is here."

🗨️ "Earth's last laugh has arrived."

Even the Cloak Master pauses, confused.

The stranger floats gently to the ground, barefoot now, shielding Sim Hoyun with his umbrella.

THE SAVIOR (smirking):

🗨️ "Tired already, warrior? Go nap. I've got Edgy Discount Voldemort here."

---

SCENE 5 – META BREAKDOWN

Suddenly—

A voice booms from nowhere, outside the battlefield. Echoing. Raw. Real.

UNKNOWN VOICE (furious):

🗨️ "Hold up, hold up! What nonsense is this?!"

🗨️ "Hey AUTHOR! Where's the hero?! What is this comedy circus?!"

The world FREEZES.

Raindrops hang midair. Lightning stuck mid-flash. Cloak Master mid-roar.

The Earth trembles.

The story is... rebooting.

---

SCENE 6 – Back to Reality (Phone POV)

Cut to a dark room.

A guy (you — the AUTHOR) is furiously typing on his phone, eyes wide.

Phone screen flashes:

Battery: 1%

The phone dies.

AUTHOR (yelling):

🗨️ "OH COME ON! Not now! The climax was right there!"

He scrambles, plugs in the charger. The screen comes back.

AUTHOR (grinning):

🗨️ "If you're loving this story… drop a comment.

Because now it's about to get REAL."

---

SCENE 7 – And We're Back

The phone revives.

The world resumes.

Raindrops fall again. Lightning crashes. Cloak Master roars in frustration.

THE SAVIOR (licking his lollipop):

🗨️ "Back to the scene? Good. Let's dance."

He tosses the umbrella — it morphs into a glowing, comedic-yet-deadly staff midair.

Lightning flashes. Sim smiles faintly.

He's not alone anymore.

NARRATOR (dramatic tone):

🗨️ "And thus began the legend of the rainbow fighter, the paused world... and the 1% battery author."

Someone off-screen screams:

🗨️ "This is NOT the time for jokes!"

The savior grins.

> "But jokes are my power.

Call me... Funny Seviar.

But you? You can call me Aroma."

He snaps his fingers. The clouds part.

---

SCENE 8 – Enter Aroma: The Real Deal

> "I only show up when the world's become a joke...

And I'm here to make it smile again."

The ground rumbles.

The Cloak Monster steps forward — flames swirl around him.

CLOAK MONSTER (deep, ancient voice):

🗨️ "You… you're different. You carry something no human does.

You are the strongest human alive."

AROMA (smirking):

🗨️ "Oh please… there are stronger folks than me.

They're just... running late. Should be here by 6.

Right now it's 4 PM. We've got 2 hours. Let's make it count."

---

SCENE 9 – Power Reveal: Dual Attribute

The Cloak Master throws off his robe — revealing his true form:

A hulking humanoid jaguar — skin like the night, eyes like eclipses.

Black-gold flames rise like a crown.

Aroma steps forward, removes his sunglasses.

His aura flares — one side glowing blue, the other red.

Water swirls on one side. Fire dances on the other.

> They meet in the middle — not clashing...

but FUSING — into STEAM.

AROMA (for once, serious):

🗨️ "Fire and Water — the universe's opposites.

Nobody controls both… unless they turn them into a joke."

He claps.

> From the mist rises the STEAM DRAGON — a beast of vapor and fire, radiant with elemental chaos.

The Cloak Monster snarls — summoning a Hellfire Dragon, its body armored in bone and flame.

Two dragons clash in the sky.

---

SCENE 10 – Verbal Showdown

CLOAK MONSTER (growling):

🗨️ "You mock me."

AROMA (grinning):

🗨️ "Not mock — lightly roast."

Aroma vanishes in a burst of steam.

He reappears behind the monster, delivering a powerful flying kick.

The monster retaliates, slamming him into a crater.

Aroma gets up — bruised, bleeding… but still smiling.

> "Now this is fun."

---

SCENE 11 – The Fight Heats Up

Aroma's style is wild — rapid martial arts, elemental misdirection.

He uses:

Steam bursts for rapid movement

Boiling geysers as shields

Flame-wrapped fists like magma gloves

He chants:

🗨️ "Get ready to cook — Steam Style: Dragon Roast Smash!!"

The punch lands. The Hellfire Dragon shrieks — part of it evaporated.

But then…

The jaguar's eyes glow fiercely.

🗨️ "In Hell, there's no time for jokes. Only endless pain."

Cloak Monster transforms fully —

Hell Jaguar Form: Shaitanik Roar Mode

---

SCENE 12 – Cliffhanger

The ground splits. Lava erupts.

The city trembles.

Clock shows: 4:52 PM

AROMA (panting, wounded, smiling):

🗨️ "In 8 minutes... either you're done, or I am.

Only one of us gets to laugh at 6."

The screen fades to black.

Text on screen:

"NEXT: Who'll Still Be Standing at 6 PM?"
