(LOCATION: Bilal's shelter, the next day.)

(A heavy silence. The loaves of bread are gone. Hunger is setting in.)

MERENJI: (Angrily) "I can't believe we're stuck here waiting to die with empty stomachs."

TAHER: (Looks at Maddah) "You're being too quiet… Do you have a plan?"

MADDAH: (With a sly smile) "Actually? Yes. But you're going to hate it."

[SCENE 2]

(They gather around Maddah, who draws a quick map in the dust on the floor.)

MADDAH: "There's a small supply depot guarded by a squad from a minor gang affiliated with the Bee Gang. They're failures, but they're armed. We need precise coordination… without relying on any superpowers. We still don't know each other well enough for that."

MERENJI: "So we finally get to steal? I love this kind of education."

[SCENE 3]

(LOCATION: The dark alleys, near the depot's perimeter.)

MADDAH: (Whispering) "We need a small fire as a diversion… You got something?"

(Merenji smiles and pulls an old lighter from his pocket.)

MERENJI: "I'm always prepared."

(He lights a pile of rags behind a barrier. Smoke slowly rises.)

MADDAH: "Taher, the back wall. There's a small window. When they're busy, you go in."

TAHER: (Sprinting lightly) "I'm faster than your shadow."

(Taher scales the wall with ease, finds his footing, and jumps quietly through the window.)

MADDAH: (Looks at Qassem) "You're our lookout. If you see any traps, alert me immediately. We can't take any risks."

QASSEM: (Calmly) "Understood. My eyes are open."

[SCENE 4]

(Inside, Taher quietly opens the door. The rest slip in and move quickly.)

MADDAH: "Take only what we can carry. And don't touch the shiny things… those are traps in themselves."

(Everyone works with speed and synergy. Merenji carries two sacks, Taher supports a crate, Qassem watches the exit, and Maddah wipes away their footprints.)

[SCENE 5]

(Back in the shelter. The food is distributed, their breathing is calm.)

MERENJI: (Eating and laughing) "First time I feel like I'm part of something… Not bad."

TAHER: (Looks at Qassem) "You were strangely cautious… You don't seem new to danger."

QASSEM: (In a low voice) "We learn… through pain."

MADDAH: (As he divides the last loaf of bread) "Congratulations, geniuses. Our first successful group operation without getting killed… or burning something down."

NARRATOR (V.O.):

"It wasn't a battle, nor was it an act of heroism. It was the moment they understood that survival… is not an individual talent, but a necessary integration. And on that night… the team was formed, not with words, but with action."

(The screen cuts to black.)
