Glad Gladys

    The residents in the park jumped back in fear at seeing Gladys stomping along the path. She was angry, but they couldn't comprehend the sight at first. This was Glad Gladys; no one had ever seen her convey another emotion.

    In her hands she held something oozing, and intrigued, the residents followed her. From a distance. They followed her all the way to town hall, where she entered in a rage amongst their judgemental murmurs. Some time later the mayor was launched face first out the door, with the oozing substance on his face. Immediately following him were three geese, who fluttered down next to the mayor and began nibbling at his face.

    Gladys eventually followed, and she seemed to have regained her normal composure.

    She walked out calmly, and commented as she passed the mayor "Feed your geese from my gooseberry patch, will you? I suppose you'll think twice about a decision like that next time."

    Then she walked home, and the crowd stood there looking much like the geese: unsure of what to do or where they belonged.
