The Council
by Celina Ferreira


While they listened  the recordings which received by mail on that morning in July, Harry, Victoria, Paula and Fernando looked at one another in a mix of excitement and doubt.The excitement came from the unexpected content of the recordings and the doubt about their veracity. After listening all the tapes alone, Fernando called Paula to share with him that stuff. It was so amazing that soon they led for Harry and Victoria.
Harry was surprised because a long time he did not hear someone speak so openly about the Council.
The Council was a dreaded secret society that for decades has dominated all branches of activity in the country.The Council originated in the 70s and had been part of the Government as an advisory body so to speak, but their influence was such that ended banned. Since they restarted operations, in hiding, in the early 2000s, no one was able to prove not only their existence as any of their activities. Nobody dares to speak openly of the Council, much less dare say it was helped by it. Scientists, politicians, businessmen, intellectuals and especially bankers are part of the arms of the Council. This is known by all. Now prove it, so far no one has proved.Through the years any government never acted specifically to end the activities of the Council.
Government leaders know that to make it's necessary to expose weaknesses and flaws that nobody wants to take the risk of showing.The Council in turn makes everything not to expose himself. The Council learned from the setbacks of the past that the hiding and secrecy are your greatest weapon and so, every time it is done some investigation and reaches evidence of their existence and activities everything is done so that this evidence are discredited as false.With that no investigation can be continued.So no one in that room could not believe what was happening.Who would have made ​​these recordings, how he did it?
Would have to be someone very close to the Council, because they were made ​​listens at a meeting of the Council and if they were real proving not only gave his existence as a dimension of their work, who were their members, as they did all their arms, including arm armed security who took care of their members and performed some actions considered essential for the maintenance of order and the Council itself. The recordings brought a lot of information, but some questions remained.When the tapping would have been made? Who have done? What is your objective?Anyway, things may never know .The Daily News had tried unsuccessfully many times to investigate the activities of the Council.Now with these recordings could expose the Council had infiltrated all levels of organized society and government spheres.The recordings was clear that the Council had in its favor beyond the intellectual capacity of its members, abundant financial resources to fund its activities.Clearly they had money, influence and access to all kinds of information.Finally the Council had all the elements for the formation of a parallel power.Were only audios, any image, but it certainly was enough to get the most sensational news story of all time.They decided that Fernando and Paula would secretly transcription of audios and would mount a series of reports to be published. Surely these publications would lead to many official investigations and were so much data that it would be almost impossible that the investigations did not take more evidence.Surely a process of political and administrative changes would start in the country.That would be unavoidable.Harry made ​​it clear that he thought all this sensational and was willing to afford the risks that it represented. For Fernando and Paula was also a great opportunity.It was not a matter any tinkering, it was as they say, put his hand on the hornet's nest. And everyone there had a great notion of the size of the hornet's nest.Fernando knew, to show the material who has received for Harry that his credibility  as a journalist an ally to the editorial freedom who Harry has, allow them to play this bet, however high it was.The laurels that the Daily News will reap like them  in the professional point of view, in all aspects certainly outweigh the problems that would face.At the end of the day, they all went home with many plans for the long journey which was to begin.The next morning, everyone was surprised to get to the Journal.Um vigia noturno e dois jornalistas que estavam de plantão foram encontrados presos em um dos banheiros na redação. The newsroom and Harry's office were completely overturned.The building's security cameras had been turned off.The only thing we knew was that ten armed and hooded men arrived at dawn and arrested without violence and rolled all the hostages.Police were called and all were unanimous in their statements, nothing had been taken, machinery, computers and other electronics, everything was there.The police concluded that the Daily News was the victim of an attack.
No material damage was observed, no threats or physical aggression practiced outside, was just a big mess.
Only Harry, Victoria, Paula and Fernando, knew the inestimable loss that caused this action. Damage for them, for the Journal and for the Country.The recordings had been taken.There was nothing to do or to say to whoever it was not even the Police.Nobody would ever believe in the existence of the recordings and without them, again nothing would be proved against the Council.All that remained was a certainty, was a Council action that clearly showed his power.Fernando had said nothing to anyone, and before the facts fell silent.Experienced, after knowing the contents of the recordings he had made a copy of all content received.
In time, he would return investigate and produce the matter about the Council.Until then nobody, for security, even Paula would know that.
