Subway Station
Araki Katsuo Police Sergeant Third Class from Seosu City's 5th Divison, was visiting the Ri District of Jingbai City invited by his estranged wife Shiba Ayumi (who had changed her name and joined the "terrorists," she really dislikes her husband) a high powered business executive at the Harano Corporation.  Katsuo was left to cool his heels in a back room near a party for the movers and shakers.  When the party was interrupted by criminals Katsuo fought back killing about a dozen of them so far.  


The Lobby
The fight has gone from the nightclub, through the offices up onto the helipad.  When I left the Protagonist he was about to try to exit via the subway station beneath the building.  Only a few dozen more criminals stand in his way.

Katsuo is surprised by Takao Yamamoto Q2, C4 and four ExtraQ4,  C2

Katsuo spends a Chi Point for a jump, into cover behind a section.of tunnel wall.

One terrorist down

Katsuo takes down another of Yamamoto's men

It must be excellent training in the Tokyo Police, Katsuo guns down two more.

Yamamoto flees, up the escalator,  Katsuo gives chase.

Yamamoto escapes, feeling lucky to be alive, he flees for the Lobby.

The Lobby, with two of the terrorists behind the desk.  Yamamoto runs in, Katsuo in pursuit.

Katsuo enters, winning three actions.

One of the terrorists hits Katsuo, knocking him back.  He ducks into cover behind a column.

Katsuo gets a bullet into Yamamoto.

Katsuo shoots one of the terrorists posing as Lobby guards.

Then he takes down the second.

Yamamoto is hit again.  He runs away

And Katsuo shoots him in the back

And Katsuo makes it out of the main door.  He has escaped the Plaza and pretty much won the game.
