In a parallel Japan, the government struggles to handle the urban guerrilla called "Sects". To confront Sects' activity, "Shutokei" (Metropolitan Police) was organized and its Special Armed Garrison "Tokki-Tai: Kerberos" standed at the front line with their heavy arms. Although Tokki-tai achieved a triumph over Sects, people started to oppose their violent and bloody measure. Politically isolated, Tokki-tai made a final decision on their own fate... 

The elite sniper Eito Kurosaki aka "Afghan Hound" is sent after the exiled Kerberos Koichi Todome who led the Kerberos Uprising. The once brothers in arms are now deadly enemies.


In a very different Tokyo from the one we know today, the totalitarian government rules with an iron fist. But a group called "the Sect" is staging demonstrations and challenging the government's martial law. Constable Fuse of the Capital Police's Special Unit is on a mission to stop a Sect demonstration when he encounters a girl in the sewers under Tokyo. 
 
When he fails to shoot as ordered, he is put on trial, questioned, and "re-conditioned" as a soldier. But the dead girl haunts him, both in his dreams and in the face of her sister, whom Fuse has befriended. But Fuse has made himself a target for some very powerful men... And as the world comes crashing down around him, Fuse is continually challenged to decide what is real and what is right.
