The Citizen Connection (Chapter 4)

The Citizen Connection

Chapter 4 : Decoy Attack


    "Freeze!"

      Ben stood still. He wasn't risking being shot at. His body was turned at angle in such a way that he couldn't see the person that shouted at him. Sweat began to form on Ben's forehead.


    "Wait-, Kevin ?"


    Ben immediately recognized that name. It was his other name. He is a man of many names and he is also known as Kevin Travenstein. Kevin turned his head. It was his old friend Armedius. 


    "Armedius! What's going on? What's with the attack?" Kevin asked.
    "The rebels are launching a decoy attack!" answered Armedius.
    "Decoy attack? You mean this was all just a distraction?"
    "Yes, the main attack is at the Quartan Administration Office.,"


    Kevin knew what the Quartan Administration Office was. The Quartan Administration Office, or shortened as QuAd Office, is one of the Business District's main administration center. Lots of laws were made there. It also serves as a secret weapon building facility. That ensured that the QuAd Office was well equipped with big guns. Many attacks were launched before this, but all failed. Many lives lost.


    "So, what's the plan this time? H-how are the rebels going to take over the QuAd?" asked Kevin, slightly confused.
    "Simple. I'd tell you but we have to escape now!"

    Armedius tossed a Submachine gun to Kevin. It was an MK 59. Light but with a fast firing rate. Easy to smuggle around. Kevin smiled and reloaded the weapon.

   The two men quickly in search of an escape. It didn't help that the entire facility was a maze. Gunshots could be heard close by. Screams of men alike. Blood spillage everywhere. The rebels were putting up quite a fight.


    Finally, they reached an exit. Good thing it wasn't blocked. They took off quickly. Parked close by was an APC. They hopped in. 


    "What now?" asked Kevin.
    "What? We head to the QuAd Office," answered Armedius.
    "I'll man the guns," said Armedius.


    Armedius. You'll never change. Always looking for the best weapon smiled Kevin. It was time for them to take off. Armedius utilised the Heavy Blaster Cannons. He shot at any visible Citizen Guardians. The CGs were calling in reinfocements. The plan is working. In a moment, another attack will be launched. This time, the QuAd. 


    Helicopters were rushing in the scene. More CGs were being propelled into the battlefield. Some helicopters were equipped with mines. The helis proceeded to drop the load. Explosions occured everywhere. The rebels have to keep on fighting or else the plan will fail.

   Kevin drove the APC avoiding any mines. Some brave CGs even propelled onto the APC itself. Armedius made quick haste to them.
  
   "Kevin, be careful!" shoueted Armedius.
   "Relax, how many times have I done this?" assured Kevin.
   "Hmm, many," laughed Armedius.


    They were headed to their target. Nothing can stop them. Soon, the corrupt government can be brought down.

Candlelight Dinner

    I had a candlelight dinner last night. Yeah, it's true. But, what I meant by candlelight dinner is having dinner in a house that's experiencing blackout with no electricity whatsoever not a romantic dinner. Hah. At around 7 PM last night, our house all of a sudden became dark.

The blog has been promoted?!?!

     This blog has been promoted in another blog! Today I joined Gengblogger, a malaysian blog community. It seems like a rich & vibrant community and I'm hoping to increase traffic just for fun, I've got no AdSense or NuffNang :( .

Chiptuning (SkyNorth Bay)

    Hey everybody. Lately, I've been experimenting with FamiTracker (available for free  here). This porgram can create chiptune music that was native to the NES and Famicom. I'm a fan of chiptune and old school games (even though I wasn't even born then). What made old school games awesome was the old graphics, gameplay, extreme difficulty and the chiptune music. Back then, gamers had to replay levels over and over again in frustration because of the game's difficulty. But now, if you can't pass a level, just look up a cheat on the Internet. God. Gamers are lazy nowadays. Man up and beat it yourself!

     Okay, back to the main story. The end result of my experimentation is this. SkyNorth Bay. My own personal chiptune. It's okay by beginner standards and I'm hoping to increase my skill top produce music as awesome as the Megaman franchise or Castlevania. *death sound in Castlevania*



    Also, this song is available to download for free. Link is here. Comments on the song would be helpful. Enjoy.

Original Artwork: "Aurora Borealis"

 

     If you're wondering what's up with all the artwork I'm posting, this is my own little project. I'm tasking myself with drawing/colouring a piece of art everyday for 30 days this school holiday. I've got free time, so why not?

Thinking Of Home

Comic Geek?!

 For your info, I'm a comic fan. Ever since I was small I liked drawing. Drawing for me seemed to take all my day's troubles away and locked it all up. I'm also quite a (maybe) huge fan of comics. I just loved the different artstyles each artist would use to weave a story together in a form of comics. As far as I can remember, my first comic was Doraemon. You know him. He came from the future with a task to help Nobita escape his cruel fate. I always wished that I had Doraemon with me. He had all these crazy gadgets that he keeps in his magic pocket. I'd imagine that I had the 'Anywhere To Go Door' (Pintu Suka Hati). If I had that, my family and I wouldn't even need a car anymore! Fujio F Fujiko was really a master in his own right. He brought us the readers, into many mystical worlds and fun adventures. I loved every bit of it.

 I remember that in one of the comics, Nobita was reading the ending of an anticipated comic (odd itsn't it? a comic in a comic!) in a weekly magazine. I read the Malay translation of the title : 'Pemain Pedang Angkasa Lepas' (But in a recent reprint of the same comic, it's changed to 'Pemain Pedang Angkasa Bairon'). An idea then leaped onto me: if I loved comic that much, why not draw one. Soon my first epic masterpiece was born.

  I based my comic on the protagonist in the 'Pemain Pedang Angkasa Lepas' comic. In the ending, it was shown that a city was completely destroyed. I guess that the hero saved the city. He climbed into his spaceship and set off into the unknown space. Two men waved him goodbye as their hero flew away.

I took many sheets of paper and folded them into half. I drew the cover first with the exact same title : 'Pemain Pedang Angkasa Lepas. The comic was a mute comic meaning that there was no dialog. There was only sound efects. To me at the time, the dialog took up alot of space in the comic panels and was a waste of time. But even without dialog the comic was easy to understand. I used a pencil (my first love when drawing. Soon replaced by mechanical pencils) and drew panel after panel. It wasn't boring. It was fun seeing the story progress. I didn't have much time for my comic as school was in the way. But after a couple of days it was finished. My brother is also into comics and he drew as I drew my comic. I have to admit, he is the better drawer in the family. He dubbed my character Slash for he slashes many enemies throughout the comic.

 In a nutshell here's the story. In the future Earth was in chaos. Aliens took over control and destroyed anything in sight. There was only 1 man to save the Earth: Slash! With his laser sword he killed many aliens that opposed him. But he was soon captured by the leader : Alien Pumpkin Man (I don't have a name for him!) The leader was an evil pumpkin with face and limbs. Slash was imprisoned but he finally escaped and fights the leader. He quickly slices the leader. However, the boss turns into a ricocheting ball and slams into Slash! Slash was forced to use his secret weapon: His ultimate bracelet of power! He activates it and explodes. The mothership was burning and slammed into earth. Miraculously, SLash survived! He saved the world. Two humans wave at him. He climbs into his ship and flies off. The Earth is no longer enslaved by aliens. The End.

My comic was awesome and I showed it to many of my friends. They too seemed impressed. I kept my comic as a trophy that I, Muhammad Hasif, drew a comic. Skip a couple of months later, disaster struck! My comic was thrown out with the trash! It was an honest mistake but the damage was done. My first ever comic is gone. I wished I still had the comic with me. It was pretty depressing, all my effort down the drain.

Trying blogging again...

I haven't updated this blog for a long time ><. So, I'm trying hard to blog (again!). I didn't update cos' A: Facebook! B: What should I blog about C:Anything else that's stopping me from blogging.

Okay, my topic today is : What is a blog?

A blog can be anything. During the 1800s blogs were those tiny metal rods on new fangled devices. Okay, that's not true at all. So what is a blog? If you don't know already, blog is a word derived from bloggorious which is another word for cat. Thus, blogs are cats. Case closed. Don't disturb me with e-mails asking me what's a blog. Blogs are cats. You don't believe me? Ask a cat.
