INT. MUMBAI ROOFTOP - NIGHT

The moon hangs low in the sky, casting a pale glow over the sprawling city of Mumbai. Nishastra, wearing her sleek black costume, stands tall on the edge of a rooftop, surveying the urban landscape below. Her eyes flicker with determination as she prepares for her first night on patrol.

NISHASTRA
(whispering to herself)
Mumbai, the city I love and the city I'll protect. No longer shall the innocent live in fear.

She steps forward, her figure outlined against the city lights, and leaps gracefully into the darkness, landing silently on an adjacent rooftop.

EXT. MUMBAI ROOFTOPS - NIGHT

Nishastra moves with a cat-like grace, her steps light and agile as she traverses the rooftops. She leaps from one building to another, blending seamlessly with the shadows. Her eyes scan the streets below, searching for signs of criminal activity.

The sounds of chaos reach her ears: distant sirens, the clamor of a scuffle, and the echoes of desperate cries. Nishastra narrows her eyes, focusing on the source of the commotion.

EXT. ALLEYWAY - NIGHT

Nishastra finds herself overlooking a dimly lit alleyway. Two figures, dressed in worn-out clothes, struggle as a menacing thug corners them, demanding their valuables. Without hesitation, Nishastra leaps into action.

NISHASTRA
(muttering under her breath)
Time to put an end to this.

She activates a small device on her utility belt, causing smoke pellets to billow around her, shrouding her movements. Utilizing the cover of the smoke, she descends silently upon the unsuspecting criminals.

Nishastra's movements blur as she strikes with precision, disarming the thug with a swift kick and delivering a series of lightning-fast strikes to subdue him. The two innocent victims watch in awe and relief as Nishastra stands protectively between them and their attacker.

NISHASTRA
(softly)
You're safe now. Call the authorities and stay vigilant.

With those words, Nishastra vanishes into the darkness once more, leaving the stunned victims to contact the authorities.

INT. HIDEOUT - NIGHT

Nishastra returns to her hidden base of operations, a secluded room adorned with advanced technology and surveillance equipment. She removes her mask, revealing her beautiful face marked with determination and purpose.

NISHASTRA
(to herself)
One step at a time, Nisha. Tonight was just the beginning. There's still much work to be done.

She gazes at the city skyline through a small window, the weight of her mission evident in her eyes.


Scene 2: The Dark Ride

INT. HIDEOUT - NIGHT

Nishastra stands in her hidden base, surrounded by computer screens displaying surveillance feeds and maps of the city. She studies the symbols resembling her own emblem, contemplating their meaning.

NISHASTRA
(puzzled)
These symbols... What do they signify? Who could be behind them?

Her eyes flicker with determination as she decides to investigate further.

EXT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - NIGHT

Nishastra revs the engine of her sleek black motorcycle, its low hum blending with the night's symphony. She dons her mask, concealing her identity, and takes a deep breath before speeding off into the darkness.

The city's streets blur past as she weaves through traffic, utilizing her motorcycle's exceptional maneuverability. The wind whips through her hair, heightening the sense of freedom and purpose that comes with her vigilante persona.
