Forbes was getting more and more fed up with this propaganda, but he had been ordered to wait until told otherwise.
OF EVERY LUNARIAN, THEIR MILITARY WILL....
"Forbes, come in" Forbes hidden mike suddenly burst in to life
NO LONGER USE IT IRON FIST TO....
"Carry out your orders colonel" came a voice over the mike
"Yes sir" replied Forbes
KEEP THE LUNAR PEOPLE UNDER ITS THUMB
Forbes whipped the assault rifle from under his garb and fired into the crowd, other undercover operatives did the same throughout the square. Men, women and even children were cut down indiscriminately by the soldiers while a sniper on the roof of a nearby building placed a bullet firmly between Jonas Hite's eyes blowing him from the podium in a spray of red foam. The flagstones of the square were running with the blood of the massacred civilians.
"Down with the separatists, freedom for the moon!" Shouted Forbes while his counterparts screamed other bits of moderate propaganda
"OK, thats enough all of you get out of the square" piped the mike
The murderers left the square firing as they went mowing down more civilians, except one who became trapped and was 'silenced' by the roof sniper. Forbes slipped into a back alley and removed his shoes, he hadn't come this far just to be tracked by a few footprints stamped out in blood along the streets......
The massacre was blamed on the moderates, leaving to many dark satirical jokes (so long as they murder in moderation it all right is it?)
As horrific as it may seem this event was to be dwarfed by all others that were to follow it.
