[7/17] I shared the line art for this page a while ago, action hasn't changed. This is that same page but with shading :>. I don't get to work on this a lot so it's not advancing fast, but I get a bit of work in every few days~

Getting elbowed in the face, no fun. Dae is NOT pleased.

A hand drawn comic page, in which Hakazi tries to hurt the guard from the back but the guard elbows him in the face, causing him to drop his weapon. Dae sees this and screams, "IDIOT" as he races back to help him. In the last frame, the guard lifts his head, he can hear Dae racing towards him.

[8/17] The unintended consequence of Hakazi's decision to turn back...

https://kokorobot.ca/site/night_terror.html

The guard cant see in the dark, but he can hear what's going on and takes a shot(in the blind) towards Dae who is still running towards him. Dae and Hazaki see well in the dark and both are concerned, both can see that the guard's aim is good.
Hakazi tries to stop him, but it doesn't work. Dae is shot in the upper thigh and falls to the ground.

[9/17] Hakazi giving the guard the finger never fails to make me laugh.

https://kokorobot.ca/site/night_terror.html

A comic page. The guard grabs hold of Hakazi, turns on his flashlight that he grabbed off the ground earlier, and turns to look at Dae(whom he shot in the previous page). He sees Dae was shot in the leg, but is disturbed at the sight of his strange-looking leg wound (no blood, skin looks brittle). Hakazi cant get out of the guard's grip "The fuck! Were you grown in a lab?!" he yells.
"I don't believe it" the guard says in the last frame, with Hakazi giving him the finger while saying "Believe this asshole!"

[10/17] Guard is properly freaked out.

Getting a bit better at weighing shadows on both the background and the characters, the action is easier to read (i think). Using both HB and 7B pencils on these.

A comic page. The guard's guard illuminates Dae, he looks frightened. Hakazi looks in turn, and sees Dae's wound (and appears to be surprised by it as well). The guard freaks out about the lack of blood, and turns to Hakazi, freaked out about what they are. Hakazi is afraid suddenly, "Whoa whoa I bleed plenty! Just look at my face man!" The guard is too freaked out, and knocks Hakazi on the ground and slugs him in the head "What ARE you?!" he yells.

Page 11 and 12. Hard to roll a giant...

https://kokorobot.ca/site/night_terror.html

a comic page. The guard has Hakazi pinned on the ground, and is punching hard. Hakazi is is protecting his head with his hands, then pushes up with his legs to knock him off balance so he can try to roll him off, but he can't manage it... "You trying to roll me? Not gonna happen kid!" the guard says as Hakazi struggles. His position is good, but he can't seem to be able to push him over.

Hakazi is looking concerned, so is Dae who is watching from afar. The guard breaks his arm loose and palms Hakazi in the face, hard.
Dae yells, "STOP!" as he tries to get up to help his friend, but his leg hurts too much.

[13/17] The altercation takes a dark turn...

Dae can't go help Hakazi because of his wound, he looks to be in deep pain as he settles back down on the ground.
Hakazi tries to show the guard that he's not like Dae, he CAN bleed, but the guard has lost his head a bit in this moment, and decides to shoot him. The bullet goes through Hakazi's left eye, exiting at the back.
Hakazi falls backwards.

[14/17] Dae is... not happy, something is stirring...

I realize that this project is really different from say, Wiktopher haha~! I feel like I ought to have said this when I first started sharing this :)... I like action/horror comics, drawing complex expressions, intense moments, etc
