History Fanfic / TheNeverendingHell

* AdaptationExpansion: Though the fic is mostly based on ''Film/TheDeparted'', it also adds in numerous elements and scenes from the ''Film/InfernalAffairs'' trilogy that did not make it into its American remake, such as the radio shop and audiophile scenes, [[spoiler: Fernando’s interrogation and release after his arrest following the Russian deal (which is combined with dialogue from a similar scene from ''Film/TheDeparted'' where Queenan and Dignam confront Costello at a church gathering outside)]], the entire plot involving the Nitta family (inspired by the Ngai Triads from the second ''Film/InfernalAffairs'' film), [[spoiler: Ken’s death while driving Sayaka away after the deaths of Mizuki and Hibana,]] and some dialogue added to [[spoiler: Fernando’s death from Hon Sam’s death scene.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Almost everybody dies. Mizuki is thrown off a building after being beaten by Fernando’s gang, after which Hibana is shot and killed in a shootout with the gang. The entire gang is almost entirely killed by Lycorises and NPA agents, with any survivors being arrested. Yumeko personally confronts and kills Fernando after finding out Frank was informing on the NPA and the FBI and fearing he’d rat her out (If he had to he probably would have, given the tapes he made of their conversations.), as well as a partial desire to abandon her life of crime. Saeko goes to confront Yumeko in her apartment, only to be killed by her and falsely accused of trying to murder her and soiling her reputation as a Lycoris. Sayaka, after outing Yumeko, is killed by the other mole, Ren, who Yumeko was unaware of was working for Fernando too, before she murders Takina, who was going to assist Sayaka. Yumeko kills Ren to cover her tracks since Direct Attack is unaware there is more than one mole. A grief-stricken and angry Chisato then kills Yumeko, after which Sayaka’s therapist Sau-ching helps her cover her tracks. All the bad guys are either dead or in jail, but a lot of the good guys had to die to achieve that.]]

In Tokyo, notorious Yakuza boss Fernando Koyama, a Japanese Brazilian ''dekasegi'', instructs several orphans, including the recently-orphaned Yumeko Kamimura, to infiltrate Direct Attack and become Lycorises. Yumeko, herself also descended from ''dekasegi'' like Koyama, rises through the rank and file, becoming a 1st Lycoris and garnering a reputation as a hard worker and an effective Lycoris. She manages to get herself placed on an investigation unit that is working with the National Police Agency (the Japanese equivalent to the FBI) to bring down Koyama, and intends to sabotage it.

When both sides of the law realize what is happening, both Yumeko and Sayaka attempt to discover the other mole's true identity before being found out. Meanwhile, an older Yakuza family, the Nitta family, attempts to bring down Koyama and wage war on DA and the police after he has Yumeko assassinate their leader and his direct family, angered that he had betrayed and usurped them as a dominant player in organized crime in Tokyo after they had initially taken him under their wing in the past. At the same time, Koyama is selling microprocessors and drugs to the Russian mob in exchange for money and drugs, which the Russians intend to turn over to their government to help in their war against Ukraine, and both DA and the NPA attempt to stop the transaction.
