The Other Side

Betrayal

Location: Dosker, New Orderia

POV: Leo, everyone's favorite insurgent

Me and the other resistance members that escaped the raid had arrived in Dosker a day ago and we had broken into an abandoned motel. The first day here was really just tending to our injuries and making sure the cops weren't following to closely. We are decently sure that we aren't going to be raided so we began to talk strategy.

Me: What is the plan? You insisted we come here but why?

Resistance member: The Dosker Nuclear Plant. 2 nuclear reactors, all we need to do is get close to them with the bombs we have and we can wipe out this entire city.

This is fucking insane, 400 thousand people live in and around Dosker. If we bomb that reactor it will kill them all. At the same time they all support the government and the reactor powers a lot of military installations.

Me: There has to be a better way though? Wouldn't innocents be killed if we do that?

Resistance member: We do what needs to be done for a perfect communist society. Everyone will be equal and the tyranny of New Orderia will be wiped out even if we need to kill millions to make it happen.

This is to far. It was all just fighting back before, right? I mean we detonated bombs but they weren't killing civilians, at least not that many. The government is bad but not so far as to intentionally kill 400 thousand innocents to turn off the power temporarily. 

Resistance member: If you aren't going to do it willingly we are going to force you. Or we could just kill you here, your pick.

Me: I'll do it, just don't kill me.

I need to get the hell out of this now, I am in too deep. I can't get any help because I have so many fucking warrants for killing cops and some for terrorism. I would need to contact someone high enough up in the government to even have a shot at surviving this, if they are too low ranking then I will just get shot when some military task force raids us.

Insurgent: Good, try anything and we will beat you then we will gut you alive, chop up your body into tiny cubes and mail them to everyone you ever knew. 

Me: Understood, I just want to stay alive. I will do whatever you say so I don't die.

I had to sit through a brief explanation of what we are doing before I was allowed to go off. I could go anywhere but could not leave the abandoned building so I walk into a room away from everyone and closed the door. I look through my pockets for anything useful. Burner phone, not without a number. Gas mask and gun, not helpful unless I want to fight 4 insurgents with AKs, assuming that no one else shows up. Not likely for that to happen, I already see more people sneaking in. While scrambling around I notice a crumpled piece of paper in my pocket.

Holy shit this is what I needed. The documents I had were supposed to be given to another member of the resistance, I mean now I am switching sides but you know, but I fucked up while grabbing them and I shoved some into my pockets. I thought I gave all of them over but I left a few crumpled ones in my pockets. Conveniently they parts of a phone book for some top secret government office, the RCM's IDTF Tau apparently, no clue what that is but I am short on options.

I called the number and hoped for the best.

Phone: RCM Tau, state your PC.

Me: I don't have one, I was an insurgent and am trying to switch sides. I have intel about a coming attack.

Phone: How large will it be and where?

Me: The Dosker Nuclear Plant is about to be bombed, they plan on destroying the whole thing.

Phone: Please hold, I am patching you through to NOJOD.

Me: Hurry, they are going to kill me if they find out I am doing this.

I waited while pretending to sleep. Every time someone passed I assumed they would open the door and torture me. Finally I heard a voice on the other side of the phone.

Phone: Marshal Ventuas here, who am I speaking with?

Me: Leo, I have warrants out of Ardonia for terrorism and killing some cops. 

Phone: Bold of you to call a government agency. I was told you have intel on an attack on the Dosker Nuclear Plant?

Me: I will tell you if I am guaranteed that you won't kill me.

Phone: If your intel is good we will fake your death and give you a new life. Now tell me what is going to happen,

Me: Alright, we are in an abandoned motel somewhere in Dosker. Other insurgents are showing up every minute and they plan on bombing the Plant in three days. At about 4 AM the attack will begin. There are at least 9 here already. There will probably be many more though.

Phone: If what you said is true you just saved countless civilian lives. Good work, we cannot get you out until the day of the attack. Maintain your cover and do not tell anyone about you switching sides, act like a supporter. Just stay alive until the last minute, if you have any more intel call the number (INSERT NUMBER HERE). Whoever answers that number will pretend to be a drug dealer until you say "I want to by the good stuff, ksalam".

(Ksalam is used in NO code to and means that whatever said is not true it is used with "Malask" to guarantee no one unauthorized can send transmissions. If I wanted an air strike I would say "Requesting airstrike on red smoke, Malask." Any false orders given would be followed by "Ksalam".)

I finished up the call and cleared my call history after writing down that number on the tag for my socks. I tore up the paper with the first number and ate it to make sure I wouldn't be found out. I waited until the day of the attack and called 4 more times with any updates I got. I was told that I needed to stay to the right wall, assuming I am facing north or east. Hidden cameras would follow me so group of soldiers could drag me to cover before shooting the other insurgents.

I just really hope this shit fucking works or else I am going to suffer a painful and long death.
