last part

Scene 13: Lila’s new life is peaceful, but the unease grows each day. The small coastal town has become her refuge, but she knows that Adrian’s shadow still looms.
One evening, as she walks along the shore, the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. Someone’s watching.
Lila
Lila
(looking around nervously) It’s just my imagination... no one knows I’m here.
A figure steps out from the darkness, the outline of a man faintly visible in the moonlight. Lila’s heart skips a beat.

Voice: Thought you could stay hidden forever, didn’t you?
Lila
Lila
(whispering) No...
She turns to run, but the man is faster. A hand grabs her arm, spinning her around. It’s not Adrian. It’s someone else.

stranger
(smirking) Relax, sweetheart. I’m not here to hurt you. Not unless you make it difficult.
Lila
Lila
(desperately) Who are you? What do you want?
stranger
stranger
(laughing) I’m here on Adrian’s behalf. He’s been searching for you. Lucky for me, I found you first. We can do this the easy way... or the hard way.
Lila
Lila
(terrified but trying to stay calm) I’m not going back. I won’t.
Scene 14: The stranger tightens his grip, but before he can pull her away, a loud voice echoes through the night.

Let her go.
Both Lila and the stranger turn to see Marcus standing a few feet away, his hand resting on his gun.

stranger
(grinning) Marcus... didn’t think I’d see you here. What’s this, playing the hero?
Marcus
Marcus
(coldly) I told Adrian to leave her alone. I’m not asking twice.
stranger
stranger
(mockingly) You think you can save her? You betrayed the boss for this girl, and now you’re just as wanted as she is.
Marcus doesn’t respond. He draws his gun, aiming it at the stranger.
Marcus
Marcus
(firmly) Walk away. Now.
stranger
stranger
(smirking) You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that. But Adrian won’t forget this, Marcus. You’ve signed your own death warrant.
The stranger releases Lila, backing away slowly.
stranger
stranger
(as he disappears into the shadows) She can’t hide forever. Neither can you.
Scene 15: Lila’s knees give way, and she sinks to the ground, her heart racing. Marcus rushes over to her, kneeling beside her.
Lila
Lila
(shaking) He found me, Marcus. I thought... I thought I was safe.
Marcus
Marcus
(grim) Adrian’s men are everywhere. But I won’t let them take you. Not while I’m still breathing.
Lila
Lila
(looking up at him, eyes filled with fear) How long can we keep running?
Marcus
Marcus
(softly) As long as it takes. But there’s something we can do. I have a plan—one that will end this for good.
Lila
Lila
(hopeful) What do you mean?
Marcus
Marcus
(pausing) We have to take Adrian down. Once and for all.
Scene 16: The next day, Lila and Marcus sit in a rundown cafe, the atmosphere tense. Marcus spreads out a map on the table, pointing to key locations in the city.
Marcus
Marcus
(serious) Adrian’s empire is built on fear and control. But there are people—powerful people—who want him gone. We just need to find them and get them on our side.
Lila
Lila
(nodding) But how do we do that? Adrian has eyes everywhere. If he finds out we’re coming for him...
Marcus
Marcus
(determined) We’ll be smart about it. Adrian has enemies in places he doesn’t expect. We just need to convince them to help us.
Lila
Lila
(biting her lip) And then what? Once he’s gone... what happens to us?
Marcus
Marcus
(looking at her intently) You’ll finally be free, Lila. You won’t have to run anymore.
Scene 17: The plan begins to take shape. Marcus and Lila make their way back to the city, moving in the shadows. They meet with Adrian’s rivals—people who’ve been waiting for a chance to take him down.
Rival Boss
Rival Boss
(skeptical) You think you can take Adrian out? He’s untouchable.
Marcus
Marcus
(calmly) No one’s untouchable. You just have to hit him where it hurts.
Rival Boss
Rival Boss
(leaning forward) And what’s in it for us?
Lila
Lila
(speaking up) You get control of the territory he’s stolen from you. And we get to disappear.
Rival Boss
Rival Boss
(smiling) Interesting. You’ve got yourself a deal.
Scene 18: The night of the final confrontation arrives. Marcus and Lila wait in the shadows, watching as Adrian’s empire begins to crumble from within. His allies are turning on him, and chaos erupts in the streets.
Lila
Lila
(whispering) It’s happening... it’s really happening.
Marcus
Marcus
(nodding) Stay close. This isn’t over yet.
As they make their way through the city, they hear gunshots in the distance. Adrian’s men are fighting back, but it’s clear they’re losing control.
Scene 19: Inside Adrian’s mansion, the once-feared mafia boss is surrounded by the remnants of his empire. His eyes blaze with anger as he realizes he’s been betrayed.
Adrian
Adrian
(snarling) Where is she? Where’s Lila?
His men are silent, unable to meet his gaze. Suddenly, the door bursts open, and Marcus steps inside, followed by Lila.
Adrian
Adrian
(furious) You... you did this. You think you can destroy me?
Marcus
Marcus
(calmly) It’s over, Adrian. Your reign is finished.
Adrian
Adrian
(laughing bitterly) You’re fools if you think I’ll just surrender. I built this empire. You can’t take it from me.
Lila
Lila
(stepping forward) You built it on fear and pain. It’s time for that to end.
Scene 20: The final showdown. Adrian lunges for a gun on his desk, but Marcus is faster. He pulls the trigger, and the gunshot echoes through the mansion.
Marcus
Marcus
(holstering his gun) It’s done.
Lila
Lila
(sighing with relief) We’re free... we’re really free.
As they walk away from the mansion, the city feels different. The weight of Adrian’s empire has lifted, and for the first time, Lila feels the possibility of a new life.
Lila
Lila
(softly) What now?
Marcus
Marcus
(smiling at her) Now, we live. No more running. No more hiding.
And together, they walk into the dawn of a new beginning.
