Veins of Valor Unexpected Sparks

Author

Let's begin

In Neo-Versailles, a high-stakes heist at an upscale tech firm.

An office in a high-tech security company that is barely lit. There is a tense mood as background alarms ring gently.

Luca DiFalco (ML)

Max, get the backup plan ready. Looks like we’ve got unexpected interference.

Max Riley (ML's Friend)

Got it. Any idea who’s messing with us?

Luca DiFalco (ML)

[Firmly] Someone’s hacking into our system. I need you to find out who.

A security room, filled with monitors showing various security feeds. Leo Carter is typing rapidly at a console, surrounded by digital chaos.

Leo Carter (MC)

Almost there… just need a bit more access to bypass their firewall.

Suddenly Luca entering the room with authority

Luca DiFalco (ML)

Who the hell are you?

Leo Carter (MC)

(Glancing up, slightly startled)

Leo Carter (MC)

[With a sassy tone] I'm the one who's about to make your life a whole lot more complicated.

Luca’s eyes narrow as he watches Leo work.

Luca DiFalco (ML)

[Coldly] You’ve got guts, but you’re messing with DiFalco business. That’s a bad idea.

Leo Carter (MC)

And you think you can stop me?

At a backroom in the tech firm. Luca and Leo are standing apart, while Luca’s team watches from a distance.

Luca DiFalco (ML)

You’re talented, I’ll give you that. But you’re stepping into dangerous territory.

Leo Carter (MC)

(Curious) Why? What’s your interest in this?

Luca DiFalco (ML)

(Smirking) Let’s just say I like keeping my operations secure. You’re going to be more involved in this than you realize.

He left

At Leo's apartment, filled with tech gear and gaming consoles.

Eli Turner(MC's Roomie & hacker buddy)

Hey, how did the job go?

Leo Carter (MC)

Interesting. Met a guy named Luca. He’s trouble, but he’s also intriguing.

Eli Turner(MC's Roomie & hacker buddy)

Be careful. Sounds like he’s powerful.

Jordan Lee(MC's Friend)

[Texting Leo] Are we still on for our study session later?

Leo Carter (MC)

[Texting Jordan] Yeah, I need to relax after all this craziness.

Back at the Mafia HQ

At Luca’s office, decorated with Mafia symbols and surveillance monitors.

Nina Shaw(ML's PA)

[handing Luca a file] Here’s the latest report on that hacker.

Luca DiFalco (ML)

Thanks, Nina. Keep an eye on him. I have a feeling he’s more involved than he appears.

Nina Shaw(ML's PA)

(nodding)Will do. I’ll stay on it.
