Towards the end of the 20th century, Japan becomes the preeminent world power. As a result, terrorist organizations begin to target the country in hopes of destabilizing world politics. One of the most dangerous is the Red May, an organization dedicated to the spread of Communism. To counter the increasing violence, the government sets up a splinter cell of crackshots: the Special Security Force, who has just gained a new member in the form of the tough-as-nails Angel. She and the rest of the S.S.F. must deal with the Red May and a mysterious outside force with its own objectives.

In this alternate "future 1990s", Japan never went through the bubble-burst of our world, but rather, became the nexus of world finance, surpassing the United States. This is brought them the unwanted attention of terrorist groups such as the Red May, who want to take down the Japanese economy in order to destabilize the world for their own purposes. In response, the Japanese government has authorized the Special Security Force: an elite unit working outside existing legal framework, with a license to kill. For newcomer Haruka Mikawa, codenamed "Angel", the Red May insurrection is the chance for her to prove her skills to her partner Raiden ... but they soon find out that they aren't the only ones hunting terrorists, and it isn't long before the hunters become the hunted.
