Northern State, Pyung yang-si, Potonggang-ku, The Peace Square.
Protesters, more likely rioters, broke the first line police barricades and flocked to Peace Square.
Riot police from other regions were urgently gathered in Pyung yang, however, citizens joining the protests were outnumbered.
As crowds flocked to the site where the bombing took place, a police officer, overseeing protests from the top of the water cannon, ranted and raved through a loudspeaker.
“Stop overthere! Stop them somehow.”
Protesters rushed even more, like a furious wave, as they heard the shouts from the loudspeaker. riot police, a company size-unit, tried to stop the crowd by raising shields and wielding stun batons but wasn’t enough.
As protesters in the front row fell down after being beaten by stun batons, hundreds of other protesters in the back row clashed with riot police.
“Shit, where is the backup support? Fire the water cannons!”
A powerful stream of water gushed out of the outlet mounted on top of the water cannon as soon as their commander gave the order,
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
The water cannon has modified its name to Chamsuri vehicle implying that ‘water should be used properly.’ as negative perceptions of water cannon arose from violation of human rights during the past rallies and protests, and so, there were 4 Chamsuri vehicles gushing water everywhere to stop the crowds.
Ouch! Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Protesters were knocked down like falling leaves by a powerful jet. Rioters kept their distance from the police, and soon after, there was a momentary lull. Suddenly, a man in a black face mask took out a fired bottle bomb and threw it at the Chamsuri vehicle.
Whizz~ Whizzz~
More than 20 bottle bombs were thrown towards the Chamsuri vehicle all at once.
Pow! Pow! Pow!
Some bottle bombs flew halfway through and fell on the ground blocked by the gushing stream, but around 10 bottles fell straight onto the Chamsuri vehicle.
Fwoosh~
The fire spread rapidly when the bottle bombs fell and exploded on the Chamsuri vehicle. Another vehicle, attacked by more than one bottle bomb, burst into a huge fire, and the officers inside the truck screamed and jumped out.
“Hey! Fire! Tackle the fire!”
Commander also jumped off the Chamsuri vehicle and yelled.
“Aaaaaaaah!”
Rioters shouted and rushed towards the riot police when their 4 Chamsuri vehicles were attacked by the bottle bombs.
“Re, Retreat! Back off, Everybody!”
After the attack, Commander, the first one to abandon the useless Chamsuri vehicles and withdraw from the site, ordered the troops. Four helicopters were flying over the south side of the Peace Square with a distinctive engine sound.
It was a security helicopter carrying Governor Ahn Dong-tae from Nothern State Government Office Building to the Peace Square.
Armored vehicles somehow arrived and lined up at the helicopter landing site located within the Peace Square, soon after, more than 300 fully armed soldiers stepped down with laser rifles.
Captian Kim Kwan-joon, who wore dark sunglasses even at night, got out of the C-161P light tactical vehicle and glared at the Peace Square which was in a total mess.
Rioters had taken over the site of the bombing as the police rushed to step out.
“Commie bastards! I’ve fed the starving bastards and now they’re going nuts,”
Captian Kim Kwan-joon, a rightist, turned his head toward the helicopter as the noise approached closer.
dubdubdubdubdubdub~
The four helicopters, which created rough winds, landed in turn at the points secured by the Security Force. Soon after, Governor Ahn Dong-tae and Mayor Kim Jin-kyu got off the helicopter landed right after the first one.
“Salute! Kim Kwan-joon, Captain of the Security Force, sir.”
“Captain Kim! Glad to get a prompt response from you. Hahaha”
Captian Kim Kwan-joon, Governor Ahn Dong-tae’s Security Force, refused the order of the Commander of the State Guard. It wasn’t a rejection per se, but he carried out the unit’s mission immediately, which is to protect the Governor’s safety in the event of an emergency.
The Governor shook hands with Captian Kim Kwan-joon and even tapped his shoulder as him being the only one who followed the Governor’s request.
“How many guards are currently deployed?”
After the handshake with Mayor Kim Jin-kyu, Captian Kim Kwan-joon answered with his firm voice.
“Here, Governor, please refer to the map as I explain.”
An ade-de-camp next to Captian Kim Kwan-joon shared the screen from his tablet computer.
“We’ve deployed 50 soldiers each to cover six different locations, and here we have 300 security soldiers.”
Their plan was to suppress rioters at Peace Square and prevent additional rioters from entering Peace Square from 6 different connecting roads.
“Sounds like a plan, make sure to subdue these men who are trying to overthrow the government.”
“Governor, are you really authorizing the use of firearms?”
“Didn’t I already tell you on the phone? Use of firearms approved. Those mobs should get their assess kicked.”
Governor Ahn Dong-tae relentlessly talked as if he had a sworn enemy among the rioters.
“But as you know, the use of firearms is likely to be a problem in the future. Governor!”
Captain Kim Kwan-joon wanted to avoid legal liability for injuries caused by using firearms, so he made an empty gesture and suggested Governor Ahn Dong-tae.
the Governor smirked and glanced at him. Implying that he already knew Captain Kim Kwan-joon’s intention behind.
“A state of emergency has been declared. As a Governor, it’s fair enough to approve the use of firearms, so go and control the rioters right now.”
“Governor! Do you truly mean to...”
“Oh, Mayor Kim, are you going to keep interrupting me like that?”
Governor Ahn Dong-tae cut Mayor Kim Jin-kyu, who was trying to dissuade him, off and ordered Captain Kim Kwan-joon again.
“Initiate the plan.’
“We will continue to monitor protest movement then initiate our plan afterward.”
“Ha ha, they are rioters not protesters. I’m telling you.”
Governor Andong-tae walked towards the protesters. He passed through guard soliders in the front who were guarding the surroundings with a laser rifle.
“It’s dangerous. Governer!”
“Oh, why are you doing this? Step back.”
Captian Kim Kwan-joon and Mayor Kim Jin-kyu shouted together.
All of a sudden, something seemed to be flashing on the roof from the building behind the protesters, then followed by the gunshot, and that’s when Governor Ahn Dong-tae fell down.
“A sniper. 2 o’clock, a rooftop on the 15th floor.”
One of the commanders from Security Force yelled, then guard soldiers shoot the lasers in that given direction.
pew pew pew pew pew~
The roof of the 15-story building was severely damaged. On the other hand, Governor Ahn Dong-tae, who fell on the ground, groaned in shock, yet wasn’t injured as he wore protective suit.
“”As of now, each company will be deployed to quell protests. The use of firearms approved. Roger that”
Captian Kim Kwan-joon, the chief of the Security Force, immediately issued an order thinking that approval of firearms is inevitable in order to protect the Govenor.
pew pew pew pew pew~
peeeeeeeewu~
Protesters helplessly fell bleeding in the sudden stream of pouring red laser beams.
Ouch! Aaaaaaaah!
“They are attacking us. Run! ”
Protesters screamed and scattered everywhere after dozens of people fell on the ground bleeding in the blink of an eye.
What was now seen at Peace Square in Pyung yang was a repeat of the tragic history of 5·18 Gwangju incident, the military that should exist for the citizens used firearms against them. Firearms also used on the six connecting roads to Peace Square, which caused other huge casualties.

November, 17, 20:00,
Northern State, Pyung yang-si, Yongsung-ku, Mountains in Imwon-dong.
In the dark mountains without a light, a black shadow was moving slowly on the hillside in the moonlight shining through the clouds.
It was Goo Sang-sik, 1st international operations force agent, who was attacked by an unidentified gunman in a warehouse and ran away into the mountains. The nine-hour chase, which he had been running nonstop, was now crawling with heavy breathing to see if he had the strength to walk.
The money backpacks on his back became tattered as several holes were formed in the pouring shooting. It was doubtless, the cash in the backpack was also severely damaged that it could not be used.
“Huff! Huff!”
Goo Sang-sik, who had not had a sip of water for nine hours, threw away his money backpack when he saw a small valley, and drank water with his face in.
“Ho! I feel so much better now.”
Goo Sang-sik, who drank a lot of water, laid on the ground and looked at the blurry night sky. When he caught a glimse of the moonlight and the twinkling starlight through the clouds, he felt burdened. he was saddened by the fact that he betrayed his comrades who had been together for many years and now he became a fugitive wandering the mountains.
He was filled with regret. However, he knew that regret will not make any difference, instead he thought about how he would live with the cash he had once he escape from this place.
Rustle! Rustle!
The sound of walking on leaves was heard weakly from the other side. Goo Sang-sik, who was specially trained, intuitively sensed that it was the sound of human footsteps and hid himself behind the tree.
‘Fuxxing bastarad is following me to the end.’
Goo Sang-sik, as he mumbled to himself, pulled out a handgun with a silencer from his lower back and slowly pulled its slide.
The sight distance was less than 10m in the cloudy moon.
‘Wait, is there more than one? ‘
Goo Sang-sik pricked up his ears when he heard the constant sound. There were at least three people in terms of the sound of footsteps walking through the leaves.
There was a sound coming very close from his back. He turned and tried to aim his gun, but his hand was struck by something dropped down from above. Followed by another heavy attack towards his face.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
His face was marred from the relentless attacks, he banged his head on the ground and fell like a giant tree as if he had fainted. His face was covered with red blood came out from his mouth and nose..
Goo Sang-sik saw distorted space when he fell, but soon something appeared above his eyes.
“We caught him.”
It was voice of Team Leader Park Gi-oong.
<ul>
Ah! The hard work is over. Good job!
Are we heading down the mountain now? Team leader?
</ul>
The voices of Youn Tae-jin and Oh Hyuck-soo were heard one after another from the silent PM-1 communicator.
“We will head down if he’s the one we’re looking for, .”
In a short time, Manager Youn Tae-jin and Assistant Manger Oh Hyuck-soo, who had their TCS mode turned off, approached from a distance. They were wearing sunglasses that could be seen like daylight even on dark nights.
“Thank you for your hard work. Sir!”
Oh Hyuck-soo grabbed Goo Sang-sik’s face with one hand and scanned it with a face recognizer.
Whoosh!
“Ah ha! He belongs to the 1st International Operation Forces named Goo Sang-sik. Wow! This is the guy
from the Emperor’s Hostless Club on the surveillance camera?”
“Really? Good. Let’s head down now! Team Leader Lee!”
Manager Youn Tae-jin asked with bright smile on his face.
“What about this guy?
Assitant Manager Oh Hyuck-soo pointed at Goo Sang-sik who has blacked out.
“What do you mean, Mr.? You have to carry him on your back!”
“Pardon?”
Assistant manager Oh Hyuck-soo frowned immediately as Manager Youn tae-jin spoke.
