Black ops

Lagos elite unit that handles everything the Guardians don't. Like all military measures in Lagos, they are overseen by Rahima. Any infiltration into inama territory, any rescue mission or in fact anything military outside of times of war and outside of the dome, is handled by the black ops.

While Rahima is the chief operator of the black ops, it is Ryker who leads them on the field of battle.

The mission was led by Ryker and a similar mission -- the one to retrieve diplomat Ayala, a mission under the leadership of Mase -- had recently failed. As the target, Korra, was in sights, it was noted that she was no longer wearing her air purifier. Furthermore, Korra claimed to be pregnant.

The inama virus was known to be deadly but still... there were means to contain it without any risk of infection. Thus, the order simply made no actual sense. It seemed like an agenda. Whatever it was though, Akiji refused to obey the order simply due to the fact that the pregnant Korra reminded him of the wife he'd just lost: Diplomat Ayala. Ryker passed the order further down the line and, in order to save Korra's life, Akiji executed his unit on the spot...
