[Scene 1 – Industrial District, Night]
The wind blows hard. Abandoned warehouses, broken lights, and a silence that cuts through the air.
On one side, Claws' gang, about 20 members, led by Caio "Cobra", a tall man with a tattoo on his neck and a cold stare.
On the other side, the rival gang, the Iron Rats, nearly 30 men, led by Mauro "Shark", a bulky guy with metal teeth and a hoarse voice.
Cobra (spreading his arms): "Mauro… long time. I thought the peace treaty still stood."
Shark (laughing, spitting on the ground): "It stood until your kid messed where he shouldn't. Now it's war, Caio. And I'll finish you all."
Claws is there, even wounded, standing beside the leader. His body aches, but his eyes remain firm.
Claws (low voice): "If I fall here… at least it's face forward."
---
[Scene 2 – First Clashes]
One of the Iron Rats shouts:
Rival Member: "ENOUGH TALK!"
The brawl explodes. Chains, baseball bats, makeshift knives.
The sound of iron striking echoes in the warehouses.
Claws faces two rivals at once, dodging even through the pain.
Claws (thinking, gritting his teeth): "My body's giving out… but if I fall, they fall too."
A steel bar strikes his shoulder; he staggers, but counters with a punch that drops his enemy.

[Scene 3 – New Characters Enter the Field]
Among the Iron Rats appears Bia "Blade", a skinny girl with shaved sides and a knife in each hand.
Blade (laughing): "Look at the TV star. Cutting you up is gonna be fun, Claws."
She charges, but Renan, Cobra's right-hand man, steps in front.
Renan (shouting): "If you want the kid, you'll have to get through me first!"
On the other side, a brute called Rogério "Hammer" lifts a sledgehammer and smashes it into the ground, sparks flying.
The battlefield turns into hell.

[Scene 4 – The Police Arrive]
Out of nowhere, sirens wail. Police cars slide onto the asphalt, headlights blinding everyone.
Police Officer (megaphone): "EVERYONE DOWN! THE AREA IS SURROUNDED!"
Panic erupts. Some flee, others attack the police. Tear gas bursts.
Claws looks around, shocked.
Claws (thinking): "Damn… how did they know the exact spot?"
Cobra grabs his arm.
Cobra: "Run, kid! This turned into a trap!"
---
[Scene 5 – Claws Almost Caught]
Two officers grab Claws, who struggles despite his injuries.
Officer: "You're under arrest, punk!"
Claws (desperate): "I… I shouldn't be here!"
Cobra and Renan rush back, pulling him out of the officers' grip. They escape through an alley, but many are arrested, including key members from both sides.
The war ends in total chaos.

[Scene 6 – The Friends]
Meanwhile, Isa, Rafaela, Matheus, and Diego are at home, watching TV. The news shows:
> "Gang clash ends in police operation in the Industrial District. Several arrested. Witnesses claim the young Claws, involved in the previous incident, was present."
They all freeze in shock. Matheus clenches his fist.
Matheus (nervous): "…He went. He was there."
Rafaela (trembling): "What if… what if he doesn't come back?"
Isa (furious): "Why did he do this alone?!"
Diego notices something odd: Lucas isn't reacting the same way. He's pale, staring at the screen.
---
[Scene 7 – The Conflict]
Diego turns to Lucas, suspicious.
Diego: "…Wait a second. How did the cops know the exact location?"
Everyone turns to face Lucas. The silence is crushing.
Matheus (eyes wide): "Lucas… what did you do?"
Lucas swallows hard, his voice cracking.
Lucas: "I just… I just wanted to save him. It was the only way to end this."
Isa (screaming): "YOU BETRAYED HIM?!"
Rafaela (tears in her eyes): "You put him at risk, Lucas! He could've died!"
Lucas tries to speak, but the pressure is unbearable.
Lucas (desperate): "I did it to protect all of you! If I said nothing, we'd all be dragged into this war!"
Matheus' face darkens as he steps toward him.
Matheus: "You don't get it… now Claws will carry the mark of betrayal alone. You destroyed his trust."
The scene closes with Lucas lowering his head, tears falling.
