Sasha, Greal

It was in the middle of the night in the city of 344 million people. John Parker was one of those people. He lived in an affordable house near the suburbs. Parker had ran for chief of his district, but was beaten by his opponent. Now, he was a critic of the Greali Government, publishing his articles on a private newspaper website. The website was small, and only a few thousand users came every week, but the GIA (Greali Intelligence Agency) decided to get rid of John Parker using the old way. First, the GIA instructed their secret agency branch (who were called the Black Skull) to do the work.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Night John." said his neighbor as Parker headed home.

"Night Andrew, see you tomorrow." said Parker unlocking his door and then going inside.

He turned on the light and found a body before him. It was his wife, Alisha. Before he could respond, two men hiding behind the door he had just opened attacked him and knocked Parker down before he could a thing. The agents each pulled out a silencer and shot Parker in the head. Then they ;left the house from the back. It was simple.

Unfortunately, it wasn't as simple as they thought. Someone was watching them....

A video flickered on to a screen within one of the restricted areas of the Abrahamic League Headquarters. It appeared to be a direct stream from a video camera. It showed two men, sitting next to a coffee table, both looking at the camera. One of them began to speak.

"I am Roger Brooks, and this is Joshua Evans." He said, motioning to the man beside him. The two looked worried, and occasionally glanced behind them at a door. "We are members of the Brahamic League embedded in the city of Sasha, Greal. Earlier today we witnessed and recorded video of the owner of a website that criticized the Greali government being killed by two men we believe to be agents of the Black Skull, a branch of the Greali Intelligence Agency. We are sending over the footage now as a seperate file." The man glanced at the door again fearfully, and from out of the camera's view picked up a shotgun before continuing. "We were able to witness this killing through the victim's webcam, and we now fear that the GIA may have discovered that the scene was witnessed and traced the download of the webcam broadcast to this location. If so, then our time is likely short. The footeage we have sent is of vital importance, as it will finally provide the league with concrete eidence of the secret police activities and government murder of dissenters that we have suspected to be going on for quite some time. We must.." He broke off, listening as a large number of footsteps came from outside the door. "They are here."

Roger Brooks stood up, crossing himself and picking up the shotgun. He walked to the door, stood beside it and waited. The camera rose, having been picked up by the second man, who moved behind a sofa and put it down facing the door. For a moment there was near total silence as the noise of footsteps grew nearer. Suddenly, the door sprung open as a man kicked it and burst into the room. He fired two shots from a pistol at Evans before being lifted off his feet and thrown against the wall by a shotgun blast into his back.

"It sounds like there are too many more of them!" Brooks shouted, slammming the door and bracing himself against it, firing another shot through it and grunting in pain as bullets struck him from the other side. "Detonate it!"

Joshua Evans rushed to a desk where a PC was sitting as well as what appeared to be a C4 bomb. He grabbed the device, and took hold of a key which served as a detonaor. "Have mercy on us, Lord," He said, "we die for the freedom of your children." He turned the key, there was a brief flash, and the screen went blank.

The Black Skull agents had broke in after the explosion sound finally went down. They found two bodies, but it turned out one was alive since Brooks was farthest away from the explosion.

"Shoot him." said the agent in charge grimly. He was looking around the remains of the room.

One of the agents stepped forward and fired with his own shotgun at Brooks. The agents knew Brooks couldn't survive with the wounds he sustained. The bodies were taken back to headquarters for examination. The Black Skull was aware of that someone was watching their moves, and they would have to be careful from now on. But unknown to them, it was already too late. Any day now, the Abrahamic League would inform their government of the situation.

OOC: Pretty tired. Sorry for the short post.
