PARADOX

Part One

(Gerard Way is sitting in his office doodling on paper while jotting down ideas for a new comic. He turns on his computer and notices that his usual screensaver of a print changed to a black screen.)

Gerard: What the heck?

(He reboots his computer.)

Gerard: That's weird.

(Gerard continues to draw until a loud beep came from his computer speakers.)

Gerard(alarmed):Jeez!

(He quickly turns off the speakers and took a sip of coffee.)

Gerard(muttering): This is not normal.

(Then a straight neon blue line appeared on his screen. A voice came from the already turned off speakers.)

Voice(calm): There is nothing wrong with your computer.

(Gerard tried to turn off his computer, but it did not.)

Gerard(scared): What the-

Voice: I had to hack your computer, it's the only way we can communicate for now.

Gerard(jumping into conclusions): You're just one of those fangirls, aren't you? You just want to stalk me!

Voice(a bit annoyed): Listen to me, Gerard. This is important.

Gerard: Yeah right.

Voice(firmly): Gerard, the whole comic book universe is falling apart.

Gerard(confused):W-what? This is a joke-

Voice: No Gerard, there is an evil corporation which has the power to get rid of all comics in the world. This means characters, ideas, the whole gist of it really.

Gerard(confused): I-I don't understand. Why would anyone-

Voice: I don't know. The Legendary Comic Book Writer knows why, but he disappeared a long time ago.

Gerard: What happened?

Voice: It's rather left unsaid. Anyway, Gerard Way, you have a mission-

Gerard: A mission?

Voice: Yes. A mission to destroy the evil corporation and save all comics. You will be known as The Executor.

Gerard: Really? Rad name though.

Voice: Your first mission is to go to the high school science labs. I heard that some people are hacking Batman's Bat-a-rangs to hit innocent people instead of The Joker. I advise that you leave soon.

Gerard: That's great and all, but I have to take my daughter to school.

Voice(rather disappointed): Well, you can kiss your comic writing days goodbye-

Gerard: Fine, I'll do it, but let me drop her off first.

Voice: Okay cool. I'm going to be checking in with you for awhile. Oh, and by the way, I do have your cell phone number, address, email, and any other things.

Gerard(alarmed): Wait, what?

Voice(nervous laughter): Never mind that Gee, I'll talk to you later.

(The computer goes back to normal.)

Gerard(talking to himself):"Gee"? I bet that it's just another MCR fangirl....but they sounded so serious. I guess that I'll do it then...

(He takes a sip of coffee.)

(There was a knock at his office door. Gerard's wife, Lindsey, opens the door.)

Lindsey: Gerard, are you taking Bandit to school?
