Marvel: The Tokyo Avengers

🧧 [Scene 1 – Tokyo's Abandoned "Mirror District," 3:00 AM]

Rain pours on a shattered street filled with antique shops and forgotten shrines. Shattered mirrors litter the sidewalks. In the moonlight, one cracked mirror flickers—

a face moves inside, but not the viewer's.

NARRATOR (V.O.):

"Before Onmyō warriors carved seals into steel, they sealed their own reflections—lest the spirits see too much."

A talisman peels off the shrine gate. An unseen voice whispers from the mirror:

???:

"…Come home, Renji."

🎬 [Scene 2 – Downtown Tokyo, Safehouse]

Renji sits alone in meditation. Sacred scrolls, fire bowls, and charm-blades surround him. Suddenly—his shrine mirror flickers. A kanji seal cracks.

ONMYO FLARE (opening his eyes):

"…No."

SCARLET ONNA (entering):

"What happened?"

ONMYO FLARE (gripping blade):

"The Mirror District woke up. My original seal… broke."

🚉 [Scene 3 – The Ride to the District]

The four ride a near-abandoned bullet train. Thunder rolls in the distance.

STARWAVE:

"I've lived in Tokyo all my life and never heard of a Mirror District."

KURO ŌKAMI:

"It was sealed. Hidden from memory and GPS. That's Onmyō magic."

SCARLET ONNA (softly):

"If the seal failed… something inside escaped."

ONMYO FLARE:

"Not escaped. Reflected."

🎥 [Scene 4 – Arrival: Mirror District Gate]

Massive torii gates sag under the pressure of forgotten spells. Fog clings low. They pass rows of cracked reflective panels—each reflecting twisted versions of themselves. Kuro's reflection snarls. Riko's wears a mask. Sayo's threads are stained black.

STARWAVE (nervous):

"Okay, creepy meter's maxed out."

A mirror in the center of the street ripples. A figure emerges—identical to Renji, but with black flame eyes and cracked sealing tattoos.

???:

"Hello, brother."

🔥 [Scene 5 – Flashback: The Other Renji]

Ten years ago. A younger Renji trains with a mentor in fire casting. Behind him, a mirror glows red. His clone steps from it—accidentally formed during a failed sealing rite.

YOUNG RENJI:

"Seal it!"

MENTOR:

"No—it's too late!"

They imprison the clone inside the mirror dimension—sealed and forgotten.

⚔️ [Scene 6 – Battle Begins: ONMYO FLARE vs. REFLECTED FLARE]

Reflected Flare wields corrupted black talismans, casting chaotic fire sigils that explode unpredictably.

Onmyo Flare slashes twin blades through kanji fire runes—"火" (Fire) and "浄" (Purify)—countering each strike with discipline.

REFLECTED FLARE:

"You abandoned me. I am the part of you that wanted to burn it all!"

ONMYO FLARE:

"Then you were never part of me."

🌪️ [Scene 7 – Team vs. Mirror Ghosts]

Dozens of mirror-echo clones swarm from the buildings—each one twisted, faster, sharper, crueler than the original.

Kuro Ōkami battles a silver-maned beast form of himself that doesn't hold back.

Starwave fights a silent, broken version of her pop idol self with blank eyes and echo-dead boots.

Scarlet Onna faces a threadless version of herself that sews destruction with poisoned wire.

KURO ŌKAMI (growling):

"These aren't just copies…"

SCARLET ONNA:

"They're what we could have become."

🧨 [Scene 8 – Renji's Final Duel]

The real and reflected Renji spin around the cracked heart of the district, leaping through mirror shards, slicing spells in midair. Sparks fly with every talisman clash.

REFLECTED FLARE:

"Tokyo's falling apart, and you still cling to discipline?! Let it burn!"

ONMYO FLARE (voice rising):

"I don't seal to control. I seal to protect!"

He slashes one blade into the air, drawing a glowing symbol—"焔" (Blaze). The kanji lights up the district. He charges.

ONMYO FLARE:

"Let me show you what real fire looks like."

He strikes with BLAZING SEAL STRIKE, incinerating his mirrored twin in a burst of sacred fire.

☁️ [Scene 9 – Mirror District Collapses]

The reflections shatter like glass. The fog lifts. The mirrors crack one by one, falling into dust.

STARWAVE (panting):

"Anyone else feel like they just fought their trauma?"

KURO ŌKAMI (smirking):

"Felt like punching a version of me I'd hate to be."

SCARLET ONNA:

"The seals are fading, Renji. We may not be able to hide places like this much longer."

ONMYO FLARE:

"Then we fight in the open. No more shadows."

🕳️ [Final Scene – Unknown Chamber, VANQUISH Core HQ]

A figure in red armor reviews battle footage from the Mirror District. Beside him, a chained humanoid wrapped in golden bandages breathes heavily.

VANQUISH COMMANDER:

"They're stronger than expected. Send in... the Phoenix Cage."
