The Eternal Dragon Strikes

It was around 7:30PM when the Emperor Hachiman left the Government Hall in the city of Tokyo. A rather busy day it had been, given the state of affairs. His trusty Samurai escorts walked alongside him, and out into the parking lot where his driver awaited him. As they neared their destination, only one of the Samurai aknowledged the suspicious red dots that appeared across the Emperor's body...

"Snipers. 5 of them, at least. East By Northeast of our location." He spoke to the intercom implanted on his helmet, the iron mask preventing anyone to see his lips... But allowing all to hear him. Spec Ops rushed to the nearest possible site, and the terrorists opened fire. The escorts anticipated this, and protected their leader with their lives. The first round killed off 2, an injured as many. The kevlar armour, traditional japanese armour design adapted to modern situations, prevented the bullets from getting through their bodies and hitting their protected.

A second round ensued, killing all but one Samurai, that would not survive the attack anyway. When all seemed lost for the Emperor, the Special Forces, highly trained Shinobi, reached the snipers, and killed all except one, that would be taken for interrogation.

To be continued...

"Put your hands up now or face death...(In Japanese)" Mentioned one of the masked special forces , his gun pointing viciously at the remaining black-masked gunman.

A silence gripped the scene once again, the masked assassin refusing to comment as he held his commissioned nato weapon.

"Last chance.....Now drop your weapon" The special forces operative said in a more stern and commanding tone of voice.

Surprisingly the assailant dropped the weapon. However almost simultaneously with his other hand he reached into his own inside coat pocket, pressing what seemed was a trigger.

Upon realising that the trigger was in fact for the plastic explosives attached to the assassin, the Special Forces operative let out several expletives, before the roaring of a large explosion engulfed the room.

Debris and bodies now hurtled across the room, the sound of shrieking coming to an abrupt halt as the flames spread across the area.

Stage 1 had indeed failed, but this was not the end of it.

The Emperor had been taken to his hidden fortress in Kyoto. As other Samurai had rushed to the scene, he heard his last bodyguard's last words. "My Emperor... Avenge us... That is all I will ask in this life or the next..." He had kept his tears at bay during the assault, determined not to show any emotion. But now, alone in his bunker, he could not help but let it all out. "I will keep my promise, Hiro."

The next day...

IJN Broadcast:


Yesterday, a terrorist group attempted to carry out an assassination attempt on Emperor Hachiman. It is still unknown which group sent them, but it is suspected they are from either Chinese or Korean origin. The Intelligence Services are looking for the motives behind this attack. Emperor Hachiman has decreed that he will have every terrorist operating inside and outside his nation elliminated. In the attack, died the Samurai operatives: Keisuke Shinta, Nobuo Kotaro, Masamune Eikichi, and the Defence Corps. Leader, Nobutada Hiro. The terrorists were killed as an explosive detonated inside the room they were using as refuge.

---Eastern Apartment block 3d, near shopping mall district of Kyoto------

4 men converged around the small living room, watching the news report with consuming interest and joy. Finally after much chuckling an operative began to speak, his voice in a distinct cold Korean monotone.

"Silence...Its time......" whispered the Korean in his native tongue, his 6ft 4 medium build and black suit making him stand out from the rest.

The others almost nodded in time; their figure slightly smaller and less built then the first man. Although considering this was a stealth mission, they’re build and their casual variety of T-Shirts help attribute to that.

Nevertheless the suited man spoke once more, his eyes now converging at a wooden table where the plans schematics were located.

"Ok listen everyone.....Me and Hung enter the North exit here first." He points his hand to the exit while he speaks.

"Whilst this is happening koje and kim enter the southern gate in a second car..." He points once again as the four men look on, the bombs safely contained in a variety of carrier bags.

"Once that happens we will attract the attention of the guards by starting a fire-fight is that clear...Once that happens you start planting the four bombs at the south..North..East and finally the west pillar.." He paused for breath as he spoke for the last time.

"Now once you two have done that...The South bomb should go off as soon as you escape towards your car...After that they should all explode 15 seconds after each other toppling the complex in a chain reaction........Now then you try to escape....And if you get caught know what to do...Understood" The two Koreans nodded pointed to their vest of plastic explosives, the same kind that tried to take the president's life earlier.

"What about you sir" mentioned Koje.

"After the bombing we will try to escape if not.........You know...."

"Sir" Shouted koje and Kim in simultaneous tones.

"In that case lets begin."
================
Minutes later the boss and hung scurried to their business style Lexus, their trusty A.K 47's present at there sides.

Meanwhile Kim and Koje also got in there for sierra, this time their carrier bags by there side.

Soon after they both drove on in different directions, the boss going North which led directly to the main northern entrance, and koje and Kim drove east, north and then west again, thus leading to the southern exits.

====Kyoto Shopping Complex=======

The Lexus strode up to the entrance, eventually parking on the bay just south of the entrance.

Upon parking the boss undid his suitcase, revealing various grenades, not noticeable due to the dark tint in the window of the car. Whilst this was happening hung had opened the rear side window, his A.K.47 in hand

Finally after much waiting the fighting began, thus Hung peeked out of the window and fired a volley of shots from his machine gun at the northern entrance, it obviously being in semi-auto mode. The boss soon followed up by opening his own window and throwing out a hand grenade at the now disarrayed guards.

Upon explosion, the public scattered as guards and civilians alike were torn limb from limb, occasionally being filled up with lead instead. Seeing the chaos, the two terrorists exit the car and let loose another round of chaos and explosions, occasionally hiding beneath the back of the car to reload.

Guards now seeing the danger took cover as they called for backup, indeed the decoy had worked.

====Southern exits====

Elsewhere Kim and Koje had left their sierra and entered the southern area of the building, their carrier bag hidden bombs in hand.

Because of the attack by there fellow comrades, the southern guards had rushed to help defend there position, therefore allowing easy access to the building.

Seeing as they had not much time, Koje ran over through the chaotic crowd to the first southern pillar located just in front of the southern entrance. Once he arrived he placed the carrier bag right next to it, before swiftly making his departure to the next area. Almost simultaneously Kim had done the same with the second southern pillar, obviously not worried with stealth due to the lack of guards and sheer amount of people that were evacuating the area.

The same formula was initiated with the eastern pillars and western pillars without much trouble. However upon arriving to the last two pillars, koje was suddenly questioned by a guard who had remained behind.

"Don't move....." Shouted the fat Japanese guard, his hand trembling in fright as he aimed his standard commission 9mm gun.

Seeing the scared copper he continued planting the bomb. Unfortunately though he had underestimated the copper, who instead of running proceeded to use a round of bullets at the terrorist.

Unlucky for Koje the bullets pierced through his ; arms, legs, and finally his heart. Because of this he plummeted to the floor, blood now flowing intensely from various gun wounds.

Seeing his friend dead, Kim cursed in Korean before removing a black and silver coloured combat knife from his inside pocket, before proceeding to throw it at the cop's neck. Hence after doing this the fat cop fell to the floor, silently choking before passing away, gun in hand.

Knowing that time was short, Kim planted the last bomb and made a run through for the Southern exit. Unfortunately the escape was cut off due to a bullet entering the back of his skull, killing him instantly.

He had died a heroic death, and would not be forgotten.

====Battle at Northern Exit======

The battle raged on with both sides exchanging blows with little accuracy. However this was soon cut short by a lone bullet catching the Lexus’s fuel tank. Soon after the car exploded, tearing apart the operatives almost atom by atom.

However they did there part.

====Inside shopping complex========

The crowd on the ground floor had mostly been evacuated, although the same could not be said for the upper decks, who were still somewhat packed.

---Seconds later------

Large roars were heard as the first two pillars exploded, sending debris and bodies flying everywhere. Soon after the pillars exploded rythmatically-sending shockwaves across the building. Now that the support had gone on the upper decks the floor fell through, sending hundreds of people fleeing for there lives in utter chaos. People got crushed as shops and building collided into each other, nothing could escape its wrath

Indeed this was a war of blood against the capitalist supporters.

IJN Broadcast:

The attacks upon our country continue, as a terrorist group successfully bombed the pillars of a shopping mall in Kyoto. About 457 people died, between the initial assault and the bombing. None of the terrorists could be identified. However, a combat knife of Korean origin was found amidst the wrecks. This has narrowed the search of our Intelligence services, who strongly suspect the attack might have come from a terrorist organization known as Eternal Dragon. The Emperor has mobilized the army, and prepares for an invasion of north Korea, if the Democratic People's Republic of Korea does not agree with surrendering the terrorists to Japanese custody.

KNN========NEWS FLASH========

----A Series of music starts as the broadcast begins-------

"Today in a series of terrorist attacks on Imperial Japan, 457 was known as the estimate to the civilians killed. Many more are reported injured.

Earlier on in the day an assassination failed on the president, killing several of his body guards.

In wake of these attacks, the Emperor has condemned the atrocities and threatened invasion on the country believed to be housing the terrorists, North Korea.

The terrorists who are believed to have carried out the killings, Neo crusaders D.P.R.K posted this on a known website funded by them.

"We have said we intend to stop the raping of North Korean economy by these capitalist Infidels...Now this is only the beginning of the destruction of all there economies...Indeed this is not some Ideology or Jihad....But instead it is the rule of our former leader.. Kim II.."

Also on the website was video footage of the men in there apartment making the bomb.

The statement could not be verified for its authenticity.

======================================

And with accusations of them hiding the terrorists, Sephoto Bloodlust had this to say.

"Imperialists we understand your grief......We hope this will not affect the good ground we stand on economic or diplomatic ties...

We mourn the deaths of your people and the attempt on your life..And we can assure you that if they are the nation...We will find them...
===========================================

On other news arm shares in Korean inc fell dramatically by 2.9%, this is due to the threat of withdrawing Japanese investment.

Also Sephoto pledged to have a meeting with western nations in discussing social security and the war against terror.

The Emperor planned the next course of action. He might not be able to invade Korea... Though it would give him much pleasure in doing so... But he still had to take care of the terrorists. This would take more than simple force of arms... Perhaps... Yes, that was maybe the best idea. "Call Iga." He commanded his secretary.

The phone rang on a dusty Dojo in the Iga province, only a few miles from the bunker. "Yes, this is Honada speaking... Emperor!" He listened to the Emperor for a while, his face becoming consumed with a mixture of anxiety and grief. "I understand. I'll fulfill this task to the best of my ability." Hattori Honada was a man in his early 30s. Descendant of the famous Ninja Samurai Hattori Hanzo (that did exist, no Kill Bill reference here), he strived to carry on the family's traditions. And his chance had finally arrived.

Gathering as much as 50 of his most skilled disciples, the group, already in their Shinobi outfits and carrying their traditional Ninja-To at their back, they boarded a freighter headed for N. Korea and infiltrated. There, they disguised as Japanese tourists, and began to learn more about the status of the Eternal Dragon...

====DISUSED ARMS FACTORY IN CAPITAL OF NORTH KOREA, PYONG'YANG===

Several leaders gathered around a reinforced room, the most noticeable leaders being Blaze Bloodlust and his number two Lance. Among the table were a variety of plans.

"So...it was a sucess......No doubt they will now be sending Special forces to infiltrate our hideout....Issue this to the men.....Any Japanese recently entering the country as tourists..kill them..." Murmured Blaze in a cold monotone.

"But that will be hard to cover up....." Whispered a middle-aged lance
Blaze chuckled meekly, before speaking once again.

"Like brother could do anything..."

OOC: My last post for tonight... Gotta study, gotta study, gotta study... argh...

IC:

Honada and a pair of his students walked around a coastal city in Norht Korea. The locals had greeted them with all kinds of reactions, from welcoming, to apologetic, and even agressive. Overall, there was a strong feeling they weren't welcome, though. "Eeeh, this is a really prosperous land, isn't it?", asked one of his students, Kenta. The cause for this statement was the amount of beggars and homeless people in the streets, as well as the overall run-down look of the city. "Shut up. We didn't come here as... Well, maybe we did, but refrain from making stupid statements." Honada replied.

He stopped by a shop to investigate a few interesting knives. These weren't perhaps as sharp as his land's own, but were still interesting. As he pondered whether to get one for his wife or not, a jeep rushed through the streets, with many armed, veilled men inside. Acting on instinct, he jumped to the stand's cover. A volley of machinegun bullets echoed, luckilly without much accuracy.

His two students, who had stayed behind, managed to lure a few of the terrorists to come after them. They had to drag their pursuers to a spot where they could use their concealed weapons at ease. They came by a dead end. As the terrorists caught up with them, they drew a pistol and a frag grenade each. The gunner fired a pair of shots at them, but the goal was to measure the distance between both parties. He retreated his head back to the corner as the machineguns opened fire. he shot another pair of bullets, and shout "NOW!" His companion threw the grenade, that exploded upon landing near the target's feet. The terrorists were either dead or crippled for life. Though they'd never see the hospital, as the Shinobi killed them off.

Honada was left to deal with 2 who had not chased after the others. They approached carefully, as if something warned them to be cautious. The explosion a few quarters away made them lose focus, and Honada leaped across the stand, Sagyo (a string used for many things) on hands. He wrapped it around one of the terrorist's neck, and used his reaction to kill off the other, as he had pulled his gun's trigger. A few seconds later, they were all dead.

Across the city, other attacks ensued, and about 4 Shinobi had lost their lives. It was no longer safe to walk around the streets of the city, so the Shinobi dropped their disguises and hurried away from the city... Pillaging their foes' weaponry while at it.

======Few hours later, underground facilitie in the D.M.Z. zone======

Blaze banged the table with increasing ferocity, his anger evident.

"What......They killed some of my men..Hmm....They will pay"

-------Kangnung---------

Patrols of militants in jeeps searched the city, A.K.47's in hand. After several minutes of searching they spotted a group of Japanese women, obviously lost tourists.

Seeing this they rode up to them, eventually exiting the veichle as they spoke.

"Your coming with us...." Spoke one of the militants as he pointed the A.K-47's at them.

With no option they complied, escaping the jeep for who knows.

===NEWS FLASH================

Knn reports that militants have kidnapped 4 Japanese female tourists. The statement cannot be authenticated, although the motives obviously appear to be retaliation for the killing of two of their men, whom they believe Japanese Special Forces committed.

If they do not withdraw within 48 hours, the Neo crusaders have stated they will kill them off one by one, for every day they fail to meet. They also mentioned that it would be a slow and torturous ideal.

The Shinobi were missing one of their members, a Kunoichi (female ninja), when they gathered. "Where's Tomoe?" Honada asked her team members. "She said she wanted to have a chat with a few girls from home." The man replied. Honada, sighing in exhasperation, turned his eyes to a battery powered T.V. set one of his men had stole from the city. After hearing the news, he could barely contain his anger.

In the meanwhile, Tomoe had been taken as hostage. Fortunately, they hadn't checked for weapons of any sort, believing har innocent early 20 year old appearance. Her intercom was still on. As she came close to a city, she managed to read a plaque: "Myong'chon". She tapped her intercom lightly, and whispered: "Lord Honada. It's Tomoe. The terrorists have taken us to the outskirts of a city, Myong'chon." She waited for the terrorists to stop leering at her. "Their base is an abandoned factory. I'll try to take care of things here."

Transmission ending, the already dressed for combat Shinobi heisted a pair of delivery trucks and drove out as fast as mechanically possible to meet their foes. They arrived by nightfall at the city, being charged a few kwons for speeding here and there...

==== along the outskirts of Kangnung======

"There is no answer from the Imperial government" Whispered the masked assailant to the captain.

"Fine...That girl there....Cut her arm off....." Shouted the masked middle-aged man of Russian/Korean descent, his fingers pointing to the Imperial spy.

Soon after two of the 6 men from the terrorist group strode up to the kneeling and handcuffed hostages, machetes in hand.

Then without a moments notice they both swung their blades just below the bicep of the women, apparently slicing the bottom part of the arm clean off.

After that they withdrew back to there position along the wall, leaving the women to drown in a pool of their own blood.

====NEWS FLASH========

KNN exclusively reveals a new video shown by the Neo-crusaders D.P.R.K. In the video a hostages arms are ruthlessly cut off, an obvious sign of frustration at the Japanese government failing to respond.

Later on they posted this message.

Honada had sneaked to the inside of the E.D. base. The guards outside had been silently disposed of by his teammates. As he crouched between the cover of boxes, he couldn't help but notice they had executed one of the women... Tomoe.

In a fit of anger, he drew his pistol, and corked a silencer. They would pay. A pair of machete-wielding men came to the room where the corpse was, and were shot without a moment's hesitation. He walked on to a room where four others stood, drinking some sort of alcoholic drink. They were already half-drunk, so he had even less trouble finishing them. The occasional cry of surprise was mistaken by the others as a drunken brawl.

He managed to sneak his way to the hostage room. "Hostages found. West compartment. Kill the others." A few seconds after, flashbangs poured in through every imaginable crevice of the building, accompanied short after by rains of gunfire. The surprised terrorists, even if in greater numbers, were caught off-guard and killed. Their captain was the hardest opponent, rendering two Shinobi out of action. In the end, Honada himself killed him, with a swing from his Ninja-To.

The Shinobi released the hostages, prayed for the souls of their lost teammates, and returned to the cover of darkness, planning their next move. They had sustained losses in an early part of the operation. Now it was time to hide.

---OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE IMPERIAL HOUSE---

======Seoul, slums=========

Blaze listened to the message with protruding interest, his rage bottled up like a caged animal.

"Those fools attempting a rescue attempt....Right now they have had it...."

He stormed out of the run-down house, into a black supra.

This of course marked more trouble..

=====Ferry off the Korean coastline near Japan.=======

1 operative waited alone in the cargo hold, suitcase in hand. His intent was clear, to sink the ferry.

Indeed it had been hard for the operative to gain access to the ferry, since the shopping mall bombing the enemy military had been put on alert, guards almost sprawling from everywhere. This was no different along the ports. However the Korean ports were not as well guarded, thus allowing easy access by bribing of a few underpaid guards.

Now he would spring into action...

============The attack begins=======

Without a moment notice he began, making his way towards the various amounts of crates located his way. Upon arrival he opened the suitcase, revealing several fission-mini nuclear reactors, otherwise known as "Suitcase bombs. Indeed this much could level a city, but for now a ferry will do.
After placing the bombs at various points in the crate he removed a trigger from his right pocket.

Then unsurprisingly he pressed the trigger, sending waves of nuclear explosive material onto the crates, forcing a inevitable chain reaction. Soon after the cargo hold were engulfed in flames, killing him almost instantly.

Soon after the ferry sank in a heap of flames, its causes unknown.

=====OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM PYONG'YANG======

"We understand your anger.....However these militants are extremely volatile ....So any action good result in a bloodbath..

However we will soon try and freeze their assets...As well as hunt down the leader who has evaded our Intelligence agencies.

IJN Broadcast:

Last night, a ferry inbound from North Korea was sunk by an explosive device of nuclear nature. This has led the Navy to prevent any Korean ships from getting any nearer than 100KM from Japanese shores. Submarines and frigates patrol the shores.

---Near Conquered Base---

The Shinobi had retrieved several things from the base, and not only supplies. Documents containing information about several other bases, places where weapons were smuggled, and most interesting, where bombs were manufactured. Honada decided to take down the nearest example of the last.

He and 4 others entered the city, while the rest remained by the outskirts, hidden from sight. Their target was a sleazy bar in the centre of the city. Unfortunately, it was a full house tonight. They went through the back door, using their stealth to come close enough to the guards to finish them off by sword.

Inside, their presence was revealed by a guard dog. Even if the animal was killed, the remaining guards were alerted. Cursing, the Shinobi drew their handguns and took cover behind a few barrels of alcohol. The first few guards were taken down with out a scratch, but the second wave was heavilly armed. It took a grenade to take them out... And the lives of two agents.

The explosion triggered a chain reaction, as other explosives were caught in the range. The remaining Shinobi fled the scene just in time before the bar burst into a sea of flames. A good number of clientelle was caught, though. The mission barely a success, Honada went back to his men, determined to stay low for a few days.
