Chapter 5 :Rebel Assault

     
     "So, you mind telling me the whole plan? Now that we're safe?" asked Kevin.
    
    Armedius and Kevin were cruising towards the QuAd Office. Thankfully, they went off-road and into the lush forests of Zercrom. Zercrom is a huge flora haven. Unlike the bustling cities of the country, Zercrom is one of the very few sanctuaries where plants can flourish and grow peacefully. There has been a scare among the environmental citizens that the government was planning to destroy more jungles to make way for development, but the citizens campaigned against it. Alexender Markowizch, a famous environmentalist dabbled in politics and rose up in the ranks. He was soon made "Minister of Green" and had the power over future government plans involving trees and whatnot. He was often made fun of, being called "Kermit" ( for having the title of being a Green Minister). Even though he cared for the environment, his views towards citizens differ greatly. It seems that all their leaders were no good scum. Cowards looking for wealth and power.

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.
