Green Shadows
Date: 2013-03-22 05:39 pm (UTC)“I know what I bloody well need to do!” Gordon shouted. “That’s my name on the wall out there. Mine! Not yours! Not some fucking dipshit graphics designer! Mine! So they’ll get my instructions when I damn well bloody give them out! Until then they and you can shut the fuck up!” he shouted, frothing at the mouth.
After Staci ran out of the room in tears, he slammed the door behind her and walked over to his chair. For five minutes Gordon Godfrey sat silently in his darkened dressing room. The day’s show and the business of running his empire clearly weighed on him, but he wasn’t about to let other people see him falter.
It had been another great show. Of course it had been great; he was the best in the business. And his audience numbers continued to grow. His producer had showed him the most recent Nielsen ratings earlier. He was pulling in numbers higher than he or any of his higher ups had anticipated. Things were golden these days from ol‘ Glorious Gordon Godfrey. And they showed no sigs of slowing down.
As he walked over to his mirror, grabbed a wet napkin, and began to wipe his make up off, Gordon looked at his reflection. He did not like the man looking back at him. Gordon did not like what he saw at all. “Dammit” he said out loud. “It’s taking more and more of an effort to keep this up. And it’s really weighing on me.”
“You’re doing a good job” a voice said from the shadows. “If the rest of the plan goes as good, you won’t have to do it much longer.”
“I don’t know if I’ll be able to anyway” he said, keeping his eyes on his own reflection. “I don’t know how much more I can take until I start to crack.”
“Just a few more days, I think” a second voice added from the shadows. “When the bomb goes off and the investigation shows League involvement, we’ll be right where we want to be. Public sentiment is already on your side. ”
“Maybe” Gordon replied taking his eyes off the mirror and looking down. “But who is on her side?”
“That’s not your concern right now!” barked a third voice from the shadows. “Right now, you just need to keep doing what we tell you to do, when we tell you to do it, and no one gets hurt.”
“How do I know you will keep your words?” Gordon asked. “How do I know I can trust you? You’ve already kept me on the air longer than you said you would. You’ve already made me say such... such vile things about people I admire. Why should I believe you now?”
“You doubt us Godfrey?” an angry voice, the fourth distinct one, snapped from the shadows. “We could decide to end it all right now. We could just blow this building up and blame it on a gas leak. The public still listens to us. You made sure of that.”
“Because you told me to” Godfrey said, raising his voice. “If the Justice League knew what you were truly up to, they would -”
“Would what?” voice two asked. “Stop us? You have no idea how deep this goes Godfrey. You have no idea what power we possess.”
Gordon Godfrey lowered his shoulders. “I’m sorry. Please forgive me. I... I spoke out of turn.”
“You’re damn right you did” voice four shot back. “Just remember what you saw last week! Remember what we can do. Do you want that happening again?”
Gordon’s eyes were drawn to the picture of his wife and five year old daughter tucked into the side of his mirror. “No” he whimpered. “Please don’t hurt my little girl.”
“We’re not animals” voice three said. “What happened with your wife, that was nasty business. But you pushed us Godfrey. You forced us to do that. We had to show you that we were serious. We had to show you what happens when you try to cross us.”
A tear ran down Gordon’s face. “You’re right. I’m sorry. Just please don’t hurt my baby.”
“If you don’t want that to happen, then you need to keep doing as we command” voice one said sternly. “Everything is almost in place. Don’t mess things up now Godfrey.”
Gordon Godfrey, ruler of the airwaves and champion of the people, turned and faced the shadows for the first time. “Don’t worry” he said submissively. “I won’t. I have tomorrow’s script already and I promise you, it will be just like you want.”
“Good” voice one replied. The forms of four human males suddenly became outlined in green light, but their faces remained dark. “Just remember who has little Gretta. Keep thinking about her and the rest will be easy.”
“Yes sir” Gordon whispered.
One of them opened a window and the four Green Lanterns of space sector 2814 flew out into the night air slowly, one by one. Gordon watched them disappear into the night sky as he said a silent prayer for his daughter’s safety. It was the same prayer he had said for seven months.
