Summary: There is always an opinion of a business man or a mercenary there isn't much difference except the product and the service.

In Greek Mythology Argus was a monster with hundred eyes used by Hera to watch over IO. Argus was killed by Hermes and Hera wife of Zeus uses his eyes to decorate the peacock's tail. There were reasons behind why the call sign was given to this man. He would see all and was effective in delta force being part intelligence. 

To Shi-Jin he was his role model and hero, he had read reports of that call signs and the prompted record was grand. He was enthralled when he met the man and how talented and skilled he was...Shi-Jin admits he was star strucked. Dae Young would insist he was a fan boy. 

Shi-Jin love his country. He love how they were independent and brought peace to their world through their actions thought hidden. He always believe that his comrade were the facade of what he could aspire too. 

Being friends with Argus during joint operations. Delta force with his own Alpha team and each mission the high of getting away and saving to bring peace made him buoyant with giddiness of a school boy. Then one day Argus disappeared, he no longer was in active force and each night Shi-Jin would dream of the mission that stole away his Captain. 

The next time he meets Argus, the man was in Uruk and with a local gang, shock and disbelief the man would be with a bunch of corrupt cops and mercanary. 

Where was the man that he admired? The man that sprouted independence and freedom of his country and now he was in a high power suit sprouting out words like a loan shark. The mantle Shi-Jin carried felt heavy and he watches the shroud fell away from the man in front of him, there were no marks of his military pride, and slowly realization and the rose tinted glasses he had of his hero dissipated. 

Where was the hero? Where was the man that was his comrade? What happened? 

The paperwork given to him by Daniel and information told made him clench his teeth. Argus was country less, Argus no longer was part of Delta force due to a confidential mission that went off. Now Argus was label a weapons dealer, a drug dealer, and worse human trafficking.

The days in Korea where he sat and was treated by Mo Yeon slid through into his mind of how he boasted his injury was from saving Private Ryan. Well turns out Ryan wasn't a nice man. Ryan was a criminal and he did worse to the region of people that were taken advantage by his resources and his arms deal. 

The greed of human nature had taken Argus and now he have to kill the man, because if he had to pick between a man that betray him and his beliefs. His role model, he rather take the woman that love him enough that believe him that he would save her. 

Then the devil that was reaching for money even when he shot him dead. That one scene burn into his mind and he could feel his heart bruised from the knowledge that anything like this could happen to the best of them. 

Shi Jin swore if his country betray him, he wouldn't go this way, he refused. It was against his principal and now with the heat of Mo Yeon pressed into his body, he knew the fragility that he wanted to protect this woman of his country. That he would because she didn't betray his ethnics she even through pretend of want of money, still did more good then what his broken hero had done. 

In the night, when he watches over Mo Yeon sleeping on the couch after a tired night of working on the operations room. He would pull down her sweater baring her shoulder and look at the recovered scar from his bullet. It would heal and he was sure that her doctor friends could make the mark disappear as well. He pressed his lips gently against it, but for now it was his mark even under not so wonderful circumstances. 

Mo Yeon was a trooper. Mo Yeon indeed bare with the pain and the bleeding and she was wondrous, perhaps he should change his hero to this small bundle of sharp words and calm scalpels. He gave a smile and hug her closer and fell asleep.
