OOC: Toolsbergia as a note, I never had any trade with your nation. I shall reply to rest of you soon. My most honest apologizes but state of my health prevented me from posting.
Anyway, action! Please note that with this post I do not proclaim "all x are terrorist". I simply wish to write this for the story, because you will find radicals in every ideology. Thank you!
*** Mikurajima, 05.07.2015Hida Kaoru, 17 years old Nihonese teen, and a homosexual, looked at the high skyscrapers in the Mikurajima city centre as he walked towards the statue of Komatsuhime, the Nihonese national and folk legend heroine, historical wife of Chosokame no Yorimoto, the powerful Nihonese Diamyo who fought with 2 500 Samurai against 20 000 and won, becoming first Christian shogun of the land of Blazing Sun. She was seen in Nihon as one of great four of Asuka Period - alongside with Date Shinji, her husband Yorimoto and Fujiwara Kazuhiro, the "four Godly warriors" that won Nihon for Christ. Now she was the face of various Nihonese works of culture. But, Kaoru did not come here for that.
His life was not exactly most happy one. He always was rejected by his friends. Brought up by a single mother, Kaoru was raped by her 2nd husband and humiliated by her, rejected and treated like he did not exist. In school he could not learn - nobody cared about him and his family treated like air at home, thus he had no motivation for learning and often escaped school, hanging out alone in most dark parts of the town. He gotten into gay life style at the age of 15; and approximately half a year ago, he gotten recruited by small and now unknown terrorist group, Sodom Front. Some of the LGBT individuals in Nihon thought that the government will suppress them always, no matter who is in power; and only way to enforce on the government support for LGBT rights was to make it fear them. Yet after fiasco in late 2014 Sodom Front took different approach; the terrorists knew that they can not count on regular actions, for in overwhelmingly conservative and Christian society Nihon was almost nobody would support them. Therefore, their approach took different route. The Sodom Front started to inspire so called "Lone Wolves". Kaoru was perfect target for their recruiters; harmed boy, nihilist, with no perspectives in life. Boy who wanted to commit suicide many times - and Sodom Front convinced him that if he wants to do this, he can at least take those who he hates with him. They did not told this openly to him - they just suggested it and told him and sold him a gun in one of underground gay bars two weeks before it gotten closed by police raid. From that time on, that seed planted inside his young head had grown up, and right now he chosen his target. Before the attack, he practised on local shooting range to ensure he will kill the targets he wants to kill. His prey was to become local religious group.
Church of the New Covenant, small minority religious group classified as independent baptists associated with Kosunian national minority, but they seen themselves as non - denominational Christians. For purpose of worship, the church rented a small room inside the local flat, which acted both as few living areas and place where various groups rented their rooms. He choose it because the pastor was heard to say to one of neighbours that the homosexuals will not reach salvation and go to hell. That is why, he chosen to kill the pastor and his entire flock. Kosunians had their characteristic spirituality - and he hated that also.
He turned right after the statue of Komatsuhime and entered into his last path through half lightened corridor, as he already heard several voices singing. Nobody really cared about the home church, to be honest, and because the landlord was it's member, they could use it as much as they did not disturb other people living in there.
He took off his bag, and pulled out a
Colt Anaconda 0.44 Magnum and checked a
tactical tanto in holster on his belts, and placed rainbow flag armband on his arm. His final deed begun now.
He quietly opened the doors to the big hall where seven person, pastor included, were on their knees praying to Jesus Christ. He will not let them accomplish their deed. First to die was young lady praying on her knees. The bullet hit her straight into her head, killing her on place. Rest of people with exception of pastor died or were wounded shortly after, before they could even rise from their knees. The pastor survived because the revolver had only six rounds. He looked shocked at the young man who had enormous grin on his face, and his eyes with strange look, now taking out the tanto from his waist.
"
Why" said the shocked pastor, disbelieving what happened, as the young man ran on him.
"
BECAUSE I F****ING HATE YOU!" the young man trusted the knife straight into the belly of the pastor, and when he seen the pain, he pulled it out and trusted it again "
YOU THINK YOU CAN OPPRESS US?" he stabbed him again "
IT IS SAD IT IS OVER!" another stab was placed between ribs "
WE WILL GET YOU SOON. ALL WILL TOLERATE US OR YOU WILL REGRET IT!" he stabbed him again "
WE WILL SODOMIZE YOUR BOYS.... WE WILL FIGHT YOU AND RAPE YOUR HUSBANDS! WE WILL DO WHAT WE PLEASE WITH WHOM WE PLEASE, AND YOU BIGOTS WILL NOT DENY US THAT! EQUALITY FOR ALL!" with that he trusted the knife into the pastor's throat.
He took a breath. It felt awesome. He looked at cross and took another part of bullets to reload his revolver, to continue his rampage and kill other people. Then, he heard a voice.
Date Tadashi was a man living in nearby apartment inside the same flat. He was tall (taller than most Nihonese), well built man with dark, raven like hair, square face and blue eyes. Long ago, he used to be major in elite unit of Kaigun Rikusentai, the naval special landing force (308th Special Company) - but now he was just an middle aged man living by selling paintings he made. Though at this moment more than his paintings he thought about his fiancée, which belonged to the Kosunian home church worshipping down there. But his thoughts were suddenly dispersed as he heard screams and gunshots one floor below him. Grabbing his
Arakawa Type 2 rifle, he quickly loaded it, and ran downstairs, "slicing the pie" on every corner. He moved slowly, like boxer on the ring, scanning every place for potential threat. When he finally cornered the doors, he seen a young man opening his revolver to re - load it, and bodies lying on the floor.
Tadashi was well trained and did not allow his emotions take control over him. With firm and loud voice he shouted:
"
FREEZE!"
Kaoru was shocked. First time he faced a real opponent with a real gun aimed at him. He was after all just a 17 year old teen. He turned toward the former Marine with the same strange sight in his eyes and the same enormous grin.
"
You did it?" asked Tadashi, not controlling himself.
"
Yes.." the young man replied, revolver with single bullet near his chest, with the drum out.
"
Why?" spoke Tadashi, angry and in despair.
"
Because you will not repress us, gays... and if you still will, I am going to kill more!" he shouted, thrusting the drum into the revolver with his left hand, but he did not had time to do anything. Major Date did as he was taught; two 7.7x58mm bullets into the centre of mass and one into head hit the boy before he could aim, massacring his young body. He fell slowly on the ground, dead.
Date Tadashi knew there were things to do. He has been taught to assume the worst. Half an hour later - half an hour that seemed like eternity, he was sitting on the bench in the park, mourning. His beloved was alive, but in critical state, her fate unsure. But then, the sadness turned into anger. Tadashi was a modern samurai, ex - soldier of Nihon's elite. This attack meant that somebody declared war on him. And he knew that if there comes an attack, the Bushido code said that the man has to do anything to save his superiors and family. He rose his head from his hands and looked into the sky.
"
You will pay for that, sodomites" he said quietly. Fifteen minutes later he phoned his friends who served with him in now dissolved 308th Special Company. This was the end of some time, but beginning of another for him.
Beginning of his personal war.
