Emergency meeting was held in Washington D.C in special room in the White House, for action that occurred in Argentina rippled toward all parts of the world, in this meeting were the heads of national security. It was a large group of known and unknown personal. Something was different of this meeting that many time had gather together, this time there were faces that had never been seen before; as if the measure of the problem was extremely major. The room had long table that all gather and sat down with commotion as if extremely alert on something that they had found out, once the group of nearly fifteen sat down, one of the personal spoke. She was tall with mix color to her skin, with short black hair that gave her a professional look, with a lean fit of her black suit with tight skirt she began to speak.

"Hello, my name Lauren Smith and I'm head of sector of national security that focus on internet security, this is the first time we have all met under one roof; as you can see we all excel on cyber security and you wonder why we are ask here to begin with. So sit back and place give your order for dinner to my secretary that is by the door because we are going to be here for a while," she firmly stated pointing to an attractive young lady, who held a note book so to add the information of what each wanted to eat.

"Please take your time to place your order, because the information we have been given is cause for national security, please take your time to settle in because we are going to be here for a while," Laura smith said in a gentle but firm voice.

The group seem tense to eat but gave their order any way to the beautiful blond sectary, who took their order after each person order she would adjust her glass as if they were made size bigger than they should have. In a brief moment all were settle back into their own personal seat and a man in his near forty began to speak, slim with slick hair back.

"Miss. Smith, please enlighten us on the situation at hand, we all guess we are here because the issue of what occurred in Argentina earlier today. But please fill us in on what you know so that we can assist you in proper means, by the way my name is Scott Lincoln." He replied in a voice of authority.

"Mr. Lincoln I know who you are, your specialist a numeric code and master in programing from MIT, as for the rest of you. You are well verse in many aspect of cyber world. We are brought here today because Argentina information system that includes bank information was hit by a computer virus that we have never seen before. This virus seems to be a test virus a Trojan Virus that was downloaded simply while a security guard downloaded a movie to watch in his shift, from there on the virus became active and began erasing data, but what seems to be off, that when all data is erase the virus itself was also deleted or had a life span." Miss Smith stated while she picked up a tablet from the table, each member was assign with a tablet. Typing away gave way to writing in the big screen behind.

"What make this even more interesting is that the virus seems to be a test run, to see if it would even work… We have no confirmation of any group and we could not trace it were about…" Miss Smith was cut short by long black hair beauty in her thirties.

"Sorry my name is Stacy Adams, I believe what we are seeing here is not just a virus but a practice run to see what major damage this virus can have and I believe that this virus is not completed, also nobody stepped in and took charge of what happen, this is a new wave a terrorism, the next evolution terrorism that is focusing on data." Miss Adams specified while she fiddle around with a pen between her fingers.

Stacy Adams was head of international affairs and her major was computer programing, terrorism and counter terrorism. Her body frame was very athletic due to her obsession with being part of field agent but she was only given desk job due to her quick thinking and abilities of using the computer.

Miss Smith sat down on her leather chair that they all had, doing so she gave Miss Adams place to talk. Miss Adams seeing this stood up and address this special meeting with care, it seems to her that was only the beginning of this virus popping up and shed her concern with the rest of the group, that was special made to handle cyber-attacks. All and all this was the first time all were in one room, but almost everybody had known each other because of their outstanding reputation in their field of computer tech.

Miss Adams was in her late twenties and she showed this with her energy as she walked around, always moving as she stated her concern and showing her youthful energy. Her main concern that almost all agree that why did whoever hit Argentina first, if this was a test run why in South America or was this just a random hacker who wanted to show what he was capable? But as soon as these question popped up a man in his forty and lean, stepped in to give his two cents.

"Call me Mark, but I know they infected Argentina first, it is a country that has never seen stability and has weak political structure. This was done on purpose to show the world and the media what would happen when all the data and bank account were cleared. This is something like Robin Hood fantasy this is a major statement, this was done to shake the core of country and to leave it in chaos, like what they say with chaos comes opportunity. Like also what you said Miss Adams this only the beginning and that we most bring this information to the President as soon as possible for a counter measure, because to me the virus is not complete this was only a test run and I feel that something massive is coming."

Thanks Mr. Evan, we all know you are expert on foreign affairs and you are here to oversee all of over sea situation that we will run into, I believe what you said it is extremely important and we most keep one step ahead of this group who has started this what I would call attack." Lauren Smith replied stepping in.

Mark Evan had a lean body because his early life he was in the Navy Seal program but he was not like any other navy man he was specialist in electronic and earlier life build computer out spare parts, for him it was a hobby when he ever he finished a tour. But as he grew older the Navy put him in charge of strategic part of the combat make him work with a mic and computer, because of his Navy Seal background soldier were very respectful to him and obey his order to this day his handling of combat movement left zero causality in his three years in charge. His mind was that of chess player he would look at all the situation and find the least risk, so not to risk his teammates' life at any moment. He was a man ready for everything and welcome all the danger head on. Believing that man prepared for all outcome, was a man who will never see war but always ready for it. Mr. Evan adjusted himself in the chair and was in a proper position, this was his way of showing respect to all in the room.

The group slowly began to ease in the situation, same time they reach for their order of food that just came in; they debated on all position in the situation and all gave respect to one another. Miss Smith told them that she would be in touch with each one of them group, and that job is to find the people responsible of this cyber-attack knowing very well that Argentina did not have the resource to dig deep into this situation. At the moment Argentina was in uproar and this situation broke the country and half, many lost their savings in banks and other hand many people debt was erase, every information connected disappear when the date was erase, set back Argentina to age before computer connected everybody together. Even the internet had trouble keep the people in touch showing the group that it could affect the internet made everybody a little un ease; knowing very well that the major countries are joined joint to joint with the internet world.

Group was dismissed but Miss. Smith asked, Miss. Adams, Mr. Evan and Mr. Lincoln to stay for a special meeting. Miss Smith ask them to take a chair, the three sat at one end of the long table. Miss. Smith began to speak again. "Well you might be asking why you three were ask to stay back, the thing that you did not know, while the meeting was taking place The President was listening in all the conversation that took place in the meeting. And The President has sent me a message that you three, I mean us four would become part of counter group in this issue until it resolved, we are going to be accompany two more other people from abroad. This group that is created will have access to all the power need for this situation to not occur again."

"So let's put it this way, this meeting was try out and we made the cut," Mr. Evan said with a jest tone.

Mr. Lincoln step and replied "Ok we get the picture but who are the two who will join us?"

"To this moment all I know is that they are specialist from Russia and Japan, tomorrow they will arrive in Washington D.C and we must meet them first thing when they arrive here, all I know that the head of state all around the world is a unease by the way Argentina collapse over an unknown virus, as you can tell this has an economic outcome so let all rest, we have an direct order that will be spend the duration of the time in the same hotel, private floor at the Hyatt Regency Hotel." Miss Smith replied lean over to get up.

"Seems like this is really serious the way they treating us like royalty," listed Miss Adams.

Mr. Evens jumped in said slightly "This is ripple effect taking place, if one whole country can fall out and shatter like this, who is to gain if not the wealthy people under the radar who can come in a buy out the whole country in matter of days, this will happen to Argentina and this is very good news for the people that work behind curtains and who move in the shadows. I believe also that there is a bigger picture then just take over of country, I cannot believe to this moment nobody is putting their name on this. If this doesn't happen in the next days, we are looking at small group of people or one that are try to make a statement and this is really bad make a movement means more attacks will happen. It is hard to stop someone who wants to make a change or even has strong believe. So let's hope this we deal with a group with a big ego that is all I can say."

"Very true Mr. Evan, so let's get some sleep and meet the rest of the group early tomorrow morning," Miss. Smith said in a relax way.

The four stood up and made their way out of the White House where an SUV UCONN waited for them to take the four to the Hyatt Regency hotel. They all made their way into the SUV a close the doors, then the SUV slowly made its way into the night into the back drop of Washington DC, set a silence of the capital that was met with slight wind that blew the United States flag that gently flutter on top of the White House.
