The air in the grand penthouse grew thick with suspense as the final confrontation reached its breaking point.
The woman in the white suit stands on the upper landing with a smug smile, looking down at the injured woman while hiding her satisfaction.
SFX: Low tension chord
Victoria: Enjoy your final moments staring at the ceiling, Claire. The estate belongs to me now.
Claire: (Fading voice) You're... already... wearing... handcuffs... in your future...
Before Victoria could raise her hand to silence her, a thunderous crash echoed from the front security doors downstairs.
Heavy tactical boots pounded against the outer hallway as flashing red and blue lights flooded through the penthouse windows.
Detective Morris: (Voice from downstairs) Police department! Drop whatever you're holding and step away from the victim!
Victoria's pristine white suit seemed to wrinkle instantly as all the color drained completely from her face.
Victoria: No... that's impossible! How did they get the signal out?!
Detective Morris: (Stepping into view) We received an encrypted call from a dying woman who refused to stay down.
Officer hands cuffed Victoria smoothly, reading her felony charges aloud as she trembled in disbelief.
Claire closed her eyes, a peaceful sigh escaping her lips as the weight of justice finally filled the room.
