Black Squad – Episode 7: "Final Duty"

---

Opening Scene – The Midnight Ambush

Location: A deserted alley in Mumbai. The eerie silence is broken only by the distant sound of sirens. A police patrol car cruises cautiously, headlights slicing through the darkness.

Inside the vehicle, two police officers, Sub-Inspectors Rakesh and Vishal, sit tensely, scanning the surroundings.

SI Rakesh (into the radio): "Control, this is Unit 12. We're checking Sector 4. No suspicious activity so far—"

Before he can finish his sentence, BANG! BANG! BANG!

A rain of bullets shatters the windshield. Blood splatters inside the vehicle.

The officers don't even get a chance to react as masked gunmen emerge from the shadows, unleashing a brutal hail of gunfire. The patrol car's siren wails in protest, its flashing red and blue lights casting a macabre glow over the blood-stained road.

One officer crawls out, coughing blood, trying to reach his radio.

SI Vishal (choking): "Officer down… we need—"

A masked man approaches, aiming his gun point-blank.

Masked Gunman (coldly): "Tell your Black Squad... this is just the beginning."

A single gunshot. Silence.

The attackers vanish into the darkness, leaving only two dead cops and a city on edge.

Scene 2 – The Aftermath at Black Squad HQ

(Black Squad Headquarters – Briefing Room. The atmosphere is heavy. The squad watches grainy CCTV footage of the ambush.)

ACP Sulaiman Qazi stands at the front, his face unreadable. His eyes, however, burn with controlled fury.

ACP Qazi: "Another ambush. Fourth attack in two weeks. Two more of our own are gone."

Inspector Imran Wani (gritting his teeth): "This isn't just a gang war. This is targeted. They're hunting us."

SI Zoya Bhat (analyzing the footage): "Look at their formation… military precision. These aren't street thugs. They're trained."

Constable Arjun Patil (fuming): "Then let's hunt them back."

SI Raghav Sharma (clenching his fist): "No more funerals. No more fallen officers. We take this fight to them."

ACP Qazi turns to Imran and Zoya.

ACP Qazi: "Find their base. No mistakes. No loose ends. This ends tonight."

The camera lingers on Raghav's determined expression. He doesn't know it yet, but tonight will be his last mission.

Scene 3 – The Setup (Black Squad's Trap)

Location: An abandoned warehouse district – 11:30 PM

The Black Squad moves like ghosts in the darkness, setting up a sting operation.

A lone undercover officer acts as bait, dressed as a regular patrolman, "accidentally" stranded near an empty street.

In the shadows, the squad watches. Raghav grips his Glock, sweat trickling down his brow.

Imran (whispering into his earpiece): "Stay sharp. They'll come fast."

Zoya (watching through a sniper scope): "Any second now…"

Then – the moment they've been waiting for.

A black SUV speeds into view, headlights off. Armed men jump out, weapons gleaming under the dim streetlights.

Gang Leader (grinning): "Another easy kill. Say goodnight, officer."

Just as he raises his gun—

BANG! BANG!

Shots fired! But this time, it's the Black Squad ambushing them.

A chaotic gunfight erupts.

Raghav moves like a storm, taking down two attackers with precise headshots.

Imran rolls behind a car, firing in bursts to suppress the enemy.

BOOM! A grenade explodes, shattering a nearby vehicle.

Zoya snipes a runner, dropping him before he can escape.

Amidst the chaos, Raghav charges forward to flank the last wave of shooters.

ACP Qazi (shouting): "Raghav, wait—"

But it's too late.

Scene 4 – The Fatal Shot

Raghav takes down another gangster, breathing hard. He looks back at his team—just for a second.

And then—BANG!

A hidden sniper fires. The bullet slams into Raghav's chest.

He staggers back, blood spraying from the wound. His breath hitches, pain flashing across his face.

Imran (screaming): "NO! RAGHAV!"

The squad watches in horror as Raghav crumples to the ground, gasping for breath.

But even in his final moments, he refuses to fall without a fight.

Raghav (gritting his teeth, raising his gun): "Not today, you bastards."

BANG! His last bullet takes out the sniper.

As the last enemy falls, Raghav collapses. His blood stains the cold pavement.

Scene 5 – "Stay With Me!"

Imran rushes to Raghav's side, pressing against the wound.

Imran (desperate): "Hold on! Just hold on!"

Raghav (smiling weakly): "Told you… I'd get them."

His grip tightens on Imran's arm.

Raghav (whispering): "Make sure... they never do this again."

He exhales one last, shuddering breath. His hand goes limp.

Silence.

ACP Qazi (softly, eyes filled with sorrow): "He was a warrior till the end."

The city sirens wail. But this time, they mourn one of their own.

---

Scene 6 – Justice and Vengeance

The remaining criminals are captured, beaten, and broken.

In a dark interrogation room, Imran faces the gang leader—now bruised and handcuffed.

Imran (coldly): "Raghav Sharma. Remember his name. Because he's the reason you'll rot in hell."

One punch.

Two punches.

The screen cuts to black as justice is served, Black Squad style.

---

Final Scene – "A Hero's Farewell"

Location: Mumbai Police Headquarters – Funeral Ceremony.

Raghav's coffin is draped in the Indian flag. Officers stand in silence.

Zoya places Raghav's police badge on the coffin, her hands trembling.

Zoya (whispering): "You were more than a friend… You were family."

ACP Qazi salutes his fallen officer.

ACP Qazi: "A warrior fell tonight. But his fight lives on… in all of us."

As the gun salute echoes in the air, the Black Squad stands together—stronger, but forever changed.

FADE TO BLACK.
