[Scene opens — Early Morning, Dormitory Area of the Hero Academy]
Virat wakes up groggily to the sound of birds chirping and the distant roar of someone doing 500 pushups outside.
Virat (stretching):
"New day, new hostel… new back pain."
He grabs his basic uniform, a clean white shirt and dark blue trousers, and heads to the classroom block. The Hero Academy building towers over him like a castle, lined with futuristic lights and energy-sensing panels.
[Cut to — Class 1-A, Hero Academy]
The classroom is huge—like lecture-hall huge—and filled with familiar and unfamiliar faces. The moment Virat walks in, he spots his old "exam enemies" and some unexpected characters.
Virat (thinking):
"Oh boy. Jax, Ayush, Salman, Shinitsu, Xavier… is this class or a fighting game lobby?"
He spots Ali, who waves from the back row, sitting next to William Jackson and Rohan Sharma. Manish Kumar tosses a light orb like a hacky sack near the window.
Manish:
"Hey! If it isn't the aura rookie! Welcome to Chaos 101!"
Virat chuckles and waves awkwardly, before noticing the real surprise — five new faces in the front rows
[New Characters Intro — In One Go]
Narration (with style):
Let's meet the rookies who might just steal the spotlight (or steal your snacks).
1. Mackenzie Jones — blonde, blue-eyed, Aussie sunshine. Soft-spoken, kind, controls air.
2. Julie Conoley — American sweetheart, blue hair and brown eyes, water powers, very motherly.
3. Suhana bin Ameri — pink-haired tall Arabic girl, loves to win, warps surroundings (aura active!).
4. Joseph Williams — electric boy, dark-skinned with yellow eyes, teleports through tech.
5. Kenji Shirakumo — silent dessert lord. Controls, becomes, and weaponizes sweets. Prefers mochi. (Yes, mochi.)
[Scene — Teacher Enters]
A man walks in. Long messy black hair, red eyes, a tattered red scarf, and boots that echo like boss music. Everyone instantly goes quiet.
???:
"I am Mr. Acturus. Hero name — Material Man."
He places a hand on the steel desk and suddenly, his whole arm turns metallic like he's made of liquid steel.
Mr. Acturus (calmly):
"I can transform into any matter I've touched. Unfortunately… I've been nerfed."
Julie (whispers):
"Nerfed? Is he a gamer or a hero?"
Ayush (grins):
"Same thing nowadays."
Mr. Acturus:
"Villain incident. My abilities are only at 40%. But that's enough to discipline brats with lava, light, and dessert powers."
Kenji blinks and slowly pushes a mochi ball back into his pocket.
[Scene — First Lesson Begins]
Mr. Acturus:
"Today's topic: What is Power?"
Silence.
Manish:
"It's what you use to one-shot bosses!"
Rohan (gruff):
"It's what separates the weak from the strong."
Joseph:
"Power is potential. But also how you use it."
Mackenzie (quietly):
"Isn't it also responsibility?"
Mr. Acturus nods, pleased.
Mr. Acturus:
"All answers are… correct. But incomplete. Power isn't just your ability. It's your choice. Your control. Your limits."
He walks to the chalkboard and writes one word:
"INTENT"
Mr. Acturus:
"You want to be heroes? Learn your intent. The world doesn't need more flashy powers—it needs people who know why they fight."
[Scene — Light Moment Between Students]
After class, the students chat while heading toward the training arena.
Suhana:
"I hope we start combat training soon. I'm dying to test my power again."
Julie (giggles):
"You just want to warp the classroom into a volcano again."
Suhana:
"Guilty."
Kenji offers Mackenzie a mochi. She looks confused.
Mackenzie:
"Wait… did you… become this mochi?"
Kenji:
Nods slowly.
Mackenzie (drops it):
"OH MY GOD—"
Ali (laughing):
"Don't worry. He's 70% human."
[Scene — End with a Hint of What's Next]
Mr. Acturus watches from the teacher's balcony, sipping black tea.
Mr. Acturus (to himself):
"They're not ready yet. But they will be. Especially him…"
He stares at Virat, who's helping Julie control a floating water orb.
Narration:
The academy has begun. Rivalries will be born. Friendships will be tested. And power… true power… will awaken soon.
