Marvel: The Tokyo Avengers

🪞 "If someone else wears your skin… who are you?"

🧵 [Scene 1 – Break Academy, Morning Silence]

Scarlet Onna walks the halls of Break Academy. Everything feels off.

Teachers avoid eye contact.

One janitor mumbles a name that isn't hers.

Her own shadow… flickers when she stops walking.

She checks her thread seal: it's unraveling — the name stitched into it has been replaced.

SCARLET ONNA (quietly):

"…Who stitched this?"

She grips her needles.

🎤 [Scene 2 – Starwave's Personal Studio]

Starwave trains alone, performing shockwave patterns into soundproof walls.

Her reflections in the mirrors sync — until one blinks at the wrong time.

She lunges, smashing the glass — revealing nothing.

But on her phone, a new song has appeared in her discography.

🎵 "Mirror Me (Unreleased)"

Artist: Riko Hanabusa

STARWAVE:

"I never recorded this…"

She plays it — the voice is hers. But it's not her soul.

⚠️ [Scene 3 – Identity Lockdown Meeting]

The Tokyo Avengers gather in the sigil room. Everyone's on edge. They've begun doubting even each other.

ONMYO FLARE:

"Mystique's not just replacing civilians. She's probing us. Trying on our identities like clothing."

KURO ŌKAMI (growling):

"If she mimics our powers and memories…"

SCARLET ONNA:

"…She could replace one of us next."

They each place their palms on the "Soul Mark Seal" — an ancient glyph that only reacts to true memory-soul resonance.

It glows for everyone.

Except… for Scarlet Onna.

ONMYO FLARE (shocked):

"…No glow."

KURO ŌKAMI (tense):

"That's not her."

💥 [Scene 4 – Betrayal Fight: False Scarlet Onna]

"Scarlet" smirks — and transforms into Mystique, mid-fight. Her threads whip into jagged claws.

MYSTIQUE (as Onna):

"Oh, don't worry. She's still alive… for now."

She weaves corrupted threads — Mirror Seams — mimicking Onna's combat weaving but with barbed silk and hollow emotion.

KURO ŌKAMI:

"WHERE IS SHE!?"

MYSTIQUE:

"You'd be surprised how easy it is to replace someone who doesn't really know who she is anymore."

ONMYO FLARE:

"Then we'll burn that lie out of you."

The team launches a synchronized counter-assault:

Starwave emits tempo interference to disrupt Mystique's memory mimicry.

Onmyo Flare casts a truth-binding charm, forcing partial reversion.

Kuro Ōkami uses Lunar Crescent Claw to slash the mirror silk around her.

Mystique dodges—then vanishes in a shimmer of blue skin and needles.

🔍 [Scene 5 – Rescue Site: Abandoned Theater]

They trace the real Scarlet Onna to a locked theater where her own illusions trap her. She's been lured into false memories of her past — lost friends, childhood safety — all puppeteered by Mystique's data siphons.

ONMYO FLARE:

"She's stuck in a mental mimic cage — not psychic, but emotional triggers."

STARWAVE:

"Then we give her a real memory."

They each reach out, sharing one emotional truth:

Starwave gives her the first fan-made poster with her signature on it.

Kuro drops his cracked moonstone fang — the one she fixed years ago.

Flare burns a scroll in front of her — the one with her original name.

SCARLET ONNA (awakens, whispering):

"I'm… me. Because of you."

She ignites her true threads — and obliterates the illusion cage in a snap of red silk.

🧩 [Scene 6 – Break Academy, Reinforcement]

The team begins preparing individual counter-measures against Mystique:

Thread Seals that lock memories to biological markers.

Soul Tattoos rendered via Onmyo Flare's elemental ink.

Harmonic Identity Beats that only activate with Starwave's true vocal frequency.

Lunar Scent Marking — Kuro Ōkami leaves trace markers only his beast senses can read.

SCARLET ONNA:

"She wore my skin. Walked in my silence. But she forgot one thing…"

STARWAVE:

"What?"

SCARLET ONNA (dead serious):

"I never leave a thread undone."

👥 [Final Scene – Unknown Hideout, Deep Underground]

Mystique slithers into a lair beneath Shinjuku. Her mirror masks flicker.

She places a new file on the table.

TARGET: RIKO HANABUSA – STARWAVE.

Mystique looks into the cracked mirror.

MYSTIQUE:

"Let's see what it's like… to be loved."

🎴 [END CARD – TOKYO AVENGERS]

EPISODE 25: "The One Who Was Me" — END

🩸 Next: Episode 26 — "Fake Lights, Real Shadows"

Mystique takes center stage. But with Starwave as the new target, can Tokyo survive when even its light begins to lie?
