chapter 5
Cheer up:
Animaria is a policeman who intends to arrest Huguel, the leader of the favela at all costs.
is to arrest him and bring him to justice. She knows the girl's father is dead and he didn't tell the truth because his wife and daughters didn't want him to put them through more of his misery and have to suffer more pain so he took his own life.
Animaria has seen plenty of cruelty and dealt with criminals who hurt others without remorse. She knows that if she fails to capture Huguel, the leader of the favela, she will have to kill him to protect herself from the consequences of what she has done.
Animaria is the same age as the girl. She is a smart young woman, she is one of the youngest police officers ever to become head of the police force. Her job is to stop gang violence and she enjoys doing it.
Animaria is a kind girl, but unfortunately she wasn't born a cop because she stays in jail every night and spends all day trying to protect people from criminals and bad people who would love nothing more than the chance to destroy the police force violently. and use their power as they wish. She hates crime and she is a fighter to get justice, when she does her job she takes no pleasure in it like the rest of the cops on the force.
Animaria wants to do good and save people. So she tries her best to do whatever it takes to get justice.
Animalaria is from a wealthy family who have worked hard to keep their money safe. It would be exciting to see news in the newspaper where the leader of the favela Huguel cuts off the head of another criminal and puts the head on a stake. newspaper reports that the man's head is a symbol that the leader of the gang is not a monster.
Animalaria believes everything the article states and believes it to be true.
Animalaria arrives at work on Monday morning ready to solve the case she is determined to catch Huguel, to prove he is a murderer and a terrible human being who should have been executed rather than let loose. innocent people when they are in danger, but she only managed to save someone's life by not bringing justice to those who were wrongfully killed. That's why she loves the city she lives in. It's her hometown, it's where she came from and now it's where she stays because the mayor and the favela police are the most powerful organization in the country and everyone in the city knows that the mayor and the favela police can't be threatened or committed.
but the mayor is the favela police are very afraid of Huguel what is the leader of the entire favela capable of doing, Animalaria knows that there are many other gangs and organizations hidden among the favelas that would love nothing more than to get rid of Huguel to that they be given power.
The problem is that there are many groups and organizations that would like to eliminate it, and how they are going to do it. Animalaria believes that once the mayor sees that it is possible to overthrow this leader who is the greatest threat to society as a whole and to its freedom, she will decide whether to follow through with that idea. Animalaria believes that if anyone has any information that tells them how this leader is going to be arrested and put behind bars, then they will be the first person to get it because it will come from the mouth of a community member.
Animalaria decides to go to the mayor's office at 6 am. She knocks on the door twice in a pattern that means she is there to speak with Mayor Cazador who is the leader of the Mayor's office. She has worked there for years, years since the mayor became a high-ranking leader throughout the favela. Animalaria has known her for years and is like a sister and friend to her. Mayor Cazador opens the door and invites Animalaria into her office to talk about the case.
Mayor says arrest Huguel the leader of the favela
Animaria says yes mayor
Mayor says Look you don't know Huguel she's doing everything to keep citizens safe, Huguel Ta killing criminals for the safety of the favela is your community's responsibility.
Mayor Cazador said I have nothing against you Animalaria, but if I find out that you were part of the plot to kill Huguel then you will be fired immediately.
Animalaria apologizes, mayora. I didn't mean anything, I promise.
Mayor says Don't worry, I'm just making sure you're aware of the situation I'm in, because if we get caught in an illegal conspiracy, that means my reputation as mayor of this city is ruined and there isn't anyone to take over as my successor.
Animalaria says I understand you, mayor. Thank you for understanding everything you told me.
Mayor asks Animalaria why the police are arresting a gang leader, why?
Animaria says because it's his fault that all the people in the neighborhood are suffering, the whole area around the favela is suffering because of him.
mayor says Huguel the leader of the favela is killing criminals for the good of the favela community he is doing what is right so there is no need to worry.
Animalaria said he is using favela security as a cover and is putting citizens through unnecessary suffering to protect his image as a hero and leader.
Mayor I ask you do you think this guy will stop if you expose the truth and let everyone know what he did
Animalaria said no, the public has enough evidence, as long as he doesn't stop killing criminals, he has no hope of getting away with it.
Animaria thanks you for everything mayor.
Animaria I left the office on the streets of the favela, her car was stolen so I'll wait for her on the corner until she comes to pick me up or until the police give up looking.
Animalaria walks along the main street of the city and sees several children playing ball outside and some people having fun.
two men go up Animaria is hit on the head Animaria is falling to the ground passed out.
Two men come down to get you Animaria is knocked unconscious and passed out.
Animaria wakes up a few minutes later.
It would be refreshing to see a man in front of you in a black shirt with a skull on it and black pants with two large pockets and a brown belt with a knife in each pocket and a gun in each pocket.
Animaria says it's you
Huguel looks at her smiling and says I am Huguel, the leader of the favela.
Animaria says you have to get out of here. You killed a lot of people who deserve to live in peace.
Huguel smiles again and says If you knew me better, you would know that I'm only doing what the law says I'm a great leader, I'm protecting my people. Don't you believe it? Animaria says no, you are a criminal and a monster. you never changed
Animaria attacks Huguel dodges the attack by elbowing Animaria in the face and hitting her with his fist. Animaria falls to the ground and hits her head.
Huguel says do you think you would be an easy opponent for a strong man like me? Bet you've never been punched before, have you Animaria?
Huguel says I'm only doing this because I care about my community, and I want it to be free of criminal rapists, sexual abusers, pedophiles and murderers. Animaria says no, you've killed people just as much as the rest of them, don't you see the difference? Huguel says Of course I saw a lot more than just a lot more, but I still feel compassion for all these children, they are not animals, they are people who lost their homes, their jobs and who had their families taken away from them... what else could I have done? If I had let him go on, he could have gotten away with murdering all those people! Animals no longer have rights
Animaria does not respond.
Huguel says that I was abused by my father when I was 6 years old, it traumatized me a lot, that's why I don't want other children to go through what I went through
Huguel says that the world is not a rose-colored joy, there will always be criminals or deaths, deaths will never stop, criminals will never stop committing their crimes until our rotten race of humans is extinct in the world.
Animaria looks into Huguel's eyes which remind her of a shark, they shine, and are filled with hate and hate so pure she fears him, she has never seen this kind of hate before. doesn't belong to a human and that she can't let him control her.
Huguel says that humanity was God's mistake It would cheer us humans we are the worst species on Earth and God regretted having created us because we are weak. it works. Humans should be extinct in the world, nobody deserves a happy ending, they should stay in their cages and pray for death. Humans are the source of destruction and misery in the world and that'
Huguel says humans will only understand when they feel the same pain you felt. The same pain your mother felt every day when she gave birth to you. The pain you felt every time you saw your father with another woman. The pain you feel every day. time you see the cop who arrested your mom when he got drunk. The pain you felt when the policeman raped you.
Huguel says that you would hope that you were born into a rich family full of expensive resources, expensive materials, your house is a mansion, why waste time trying to arrest me if you already have a happy life. the suburbs than the poor neighborhoods? People have to make sacrifices to survive, do you understand that?
Animaria responds Yes sir, I understand that.
Huguel says then go back to your house millionaire it's your country that is to love it's your boyfriend if you have one it's to let me take care of my citizens who need me to take care of their safety it's their families who are starving. do they deserve happiness? You know where these things come from.
Humanity needs to learn that it needs to be happy if it wants to get rid of its problems, so that's what I'm going to teach them.
Humanity needs to stop fighting
Huguel goes to the door and looks at Animaria, Huguel says Remember what I said Animaria, life is hell, but death is the salvation of the oppressed.
Huguel turns and leaves.
Animaria reflects on what Huguel says to her as she walks away and gets into her car.
