Banks of klieg lights shined on an empty podium as the crowd waited for the Attorney General to appear. The reason for the press conference, an announcement of the appointment of a special prosecutor in the Enron scandal, was nearly overshadowed by the brand new blue curtain that hung behind the podium. Bearing a large version of the Department of Justice's official seal, the $8,000 curtain obscured a pair of twelve foot tall aluminum sculptures that had caused so much controversy of late, even though they'd stood as mute witnesses to these gatherings for over sixty years. "They should have just put her in a burqa," remarked a wag from the Times of London, referring to the bare-breasted statue known as "Minnie Lou", though its official name was the lofty sounding "Spirit of Justice". "It'd be a lot cheaper, that's for sure," a photographer from Reuters said. The crowd quieted down as the Attorney General, flanked by his aides and a protective detail of Secret Service agents, took to the podium. He shuffled through his notes and cleared his throat. "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I'll start with a prepared statement and then take questions. We'll have copies of the statement available for you later this morning." A few flashbulbs went off, and the click of shutters and whir of motor drives sounded like a field of crickets on a hot summer night. "This morning the Department of Justice received instructions from the President authorizing the appointment of a special prosec..." The Attorney General was cut off in mid-sentence as the blue curtain behind him began to fall. The crowd of journalists began to laugh as the curtain covered three of the Attorney General's aides who were standing behind the podium. As they struggled under the fallen curtain, the Secret Service agents rushed to the stage to help free them. Every camera in the room went off as the hundred or so photographers captured this slapstick sight. It took five minutes for the agents to extricate the trapped aides from the curtain. A few photographers pushed their way to the front of the crowd and kneeled, aiming their up at the podium to take what might be the last shot of the strait-laced Attorney General with Minnie Lou's bare right floating over his head. The Attorney General shuffled his papers and cleared his throat again. "This morning the Department of Justice received instructions from President..." The Attorney General was cut off again by a metallic groan. It seemed to come from Minnie Lou's companion, a loincloth-clad male statue entitled "Majesty of Law". Nervously, he glanced over his shoulder at the statue. There was another groan and the sound of metal grinding against metal. Suddenly there was another sound, a ghostly moan that seemed to come from Minnie Lou. The Attorney General backed away from the podium, his notes and papers dropping to the floor as he looked up and saw Minnie Lou's upraised arms begin to move. The crowd of journalists was stunned into silence as the Minnie Lou's arms slowly lowered, her hands gradually reaching for her and cupping them. Suddenly the room erupted with laughter, hoots, and catcalls, flashbulbs popping as every photographer tried to capture this amazing event. "It's a miracle!" shouted a reporter from L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican newspaper. This wasn't the first statue he'd seen come to life, having covered numerous of religious artifacts that shed tears or manifested stigmata, but this was the first time he'd seen a statue squeeze its own breasts. "It's a Clinton dirty trick. Reno must have rigged this last year," spat a conservative columnist from the American Standard. The Attorney General stood petrified as he watched Minnie Lou fondle her shiny aluminum breasts. Her nipples began to engorge as her fingers danced over them, making a crackling sound like a soda can being crushed. Suddenly there was another metallic groaning behind him, and he wheeled around to face the Majesty of Law. The statue's normally dour expression began to form a smile, and there was a prominent bulge forming under his loincloth. "You still think Reno did this?" asked a reporter from the New York Times as the statue's loincloth parted to reveal a large aluminum erection. "Looks more like Bob Dole's work." "I don't know what to think," said the conservative columnist. "I just hope it doesn't come after me. I'm out of here." "Don't flatter yourself," the Times reporter said. She stayed, as did just about everyone else, eager to witness the most newsworthy event since September. The statues began to take short, halting steps towards each other, their limbs creaking, their footfalls booming throughout the Great Hall. The Attorney General stood still, paralyzed like a deer caught in the headlights of a truck. His protective detail surrounded him, and the quartet of agents started to drag him off the stage. They'd taken two steps when the Majesty of Law turned towards him, swatting the Attorney General and his bodyguards off the stage with the back of his hand. They landed in the second row of seats, a tangle of bodies. The agents extricated themselves from the mess and instinctively drew their guns. "Shoot them! Shoot them!" the Attorney General screamed. The agents held their fire, knowing the effect a ricochet would have in the crowded hall. They holstered their weapons and brought the Attorney General to his feet, hustling him out the back of the hall. As the crowd watched, the statues embraced, their shiny lips meeting and pressing together with a dull ringing sound. Majesty had his hand on Spirit's exposed and she slowly reached for his erect penis, stroking it with a grinding sound reminiscent of a mild fender bender. As Minnie Lou gradually sank to her knees and took Majesty's shiny organ in her mouth, a chant of "Mo-ni-ca! Mo-ni-ca!" began to erupt from the laughing crowd. More shutters clicked, their flashes reflecting off the two aluminum giants on stage. Cell phones chirped throughout the hall as reporters called their editors and described the scene. More than one freelance photographer called his agent, urging them to get in touch with Bob Guccione, hoping for a million dollar spread in Penthouse. The Spirit of Justice looked up at the Majesty of Law, a hungry expression on her sculpted face as she lay back on the blue curtain that had them. There was a loud metallic creak as she spread her long legs, her aluminum drapery flowing like quicksilver, revealing her cleft. Majesty of Law slowly kneeled, his burnished metal penis gleaming under the bright lights. They coupled slowly, becoming one on the Great Hall stage, directly on top of the Department of Justice seal. "It sounds like a slow-motion car crash," a Washington Post reporter dictated into his tape recorder, "as these two dignified Art Deco sculptures rut like a pair of hormone-crazed teenagers." The sound of metal grinding against metal forced some of those present to cover their ears, and sound technicians started fiddling with gain controls, pointing their boom mics away from the stage to keep them from overloading. Except for a couple of network news cameramen who were doing live headshots of the reporters they accompanied, the rest of the lensmen were focused on the stage, this astonishing phenomenon. Majesty of Law's lips were clamped to Minnie Lou's breast, the shining orb that had generated so much controversy. Their hips creaked and groaned as they rocked together, her hands grabbing his polished buttocks, urging him to thrust faster. Their slow coupling became a frenzied one, and the sound of their lovemaking became almost deafening, like a pair of pile drivers at a construction site. Cameramen and photographers had surrounded them, though the statues seemed oblivious to their presence, absorbed in what must have been 66 years of pent-up desire. No one dared get too close, having seen the Attorney General get swatted off the stage like a toy soldier. "What's going to happen when he comes?" a cameraman asked his sound technician. "I dunno...money shot?" the techie replied. "I got $20 that says 'facial'," the cameraman said, patting his wallet. "Yer on." The pair moved closer, edging in for a close-up of the Majesty of Law's glistening aluminum shaft plunging into the sculpted labia of the Spirit of Justice. Beneath the sound of the thundering booms of their coupling, a metallic moan could be heard coming from her lips, almost human but not quite. And then she came. As she started thrashing beneath her partner, her metal limbs quivering and flailing, the crowd surrounding them began to edge away, afraid of being crushed, spooked by the metallic cries that escaped her lips. As the circle widened, Spirit of Justice's back arched and her hips shuddered, her big metal hands coming down right where a few reporters had just been standing. Majesty of Law's hips kept pumping, though his eyes were tightly closed. "You think he's thinking about another statue?" the Times reporter asked her boyfriend, a columnist for the Nation. "Maybe he's got the hots for the Statue of Liberty," the columnist said, slipping his hand under her skirt and resting it on her bottom. "How about we stay in tonight. I'll bring the silver bodypaint." "Deal," she said, discreetly rubbing the bulge in his trousers. "Stand back!" someone shouted. "He's coming!" Majesty of Law gave one last thrust into Spirit of Justice and then pulled out, his polished metal phallus gleaming under the lights. He reached down and stroked it once, then twice, and then he erupted in a spray of what looked like mercury, a supple silver liquid that pooled on Minnie Lou's belly. When the geyser of quicksilver became a trickle, he slowly laid on top of his partner, their lips meeting with a grinding sound as they kissed. The crowd burst into a mixture of laughter and applause. "You win," the cameraman said to his tech, pulling a $20 bill from his wallet. As they zoomed in for one more shot of the statues in repose, Majesty of Law slowly turned his head and looked at them. His sculpted lips began to move. "Do. You. Mind?" the statue said, a tone of annoyance in his booming metallic voice. With that, the crowd began to disperse, filing out of the hall while the statues relaxed on the stage, reclining on top of the blue curtain. While cameramen began to set up outside the hall and reporters began filing their stories, someone placed a pack of cigarettes and a lighter on the stage. The woman from the Times and her boyfriend hailed a cab, heading to her place for a nooner. As the cabbie negotiated the traffic on Constitution Ave., they passed the Washington Monument. Suddenly the driver slammed on the brakes. "Holy shit," he said, pointing at the gleaming white spike as veins began to appear under its marble cladding and the apex began to swell into a helmet-like shape. -30- © 2002 Anais Ninja anais_ninja@hotmail.com http://www.asstr.org/files/Authors/anais_ninja/index.html
