Hello! So I have finally decided to get my lazy self to start writing fanfics again! Only this time it is Wicked! Please don't read my other story, its bad! I hope my writing has improved since then and maybe if I get some reviews I'll know! Teehee! :P
Ok, so this is the first chapter/prologue of 'I Should Tell You.' Some things you should know before you read the story. I would have included this information in the story, but I have no idea how! :\ Anyway, Boq was never turned into the Tin Man so he holds no grudge against Elphaba. Second, Fiyero was never turned into the Scarecrow and Elphaba doesn't know he's alive. This means that they didn't run off together. Third, or is it fourth(?), Elphaba is based off of Idina, Glinda is based off of Kristin, Fiyero is based off of Norbert… Get my drift? Whoot! Go OBC!!! =D
Also, sorry if this chapter is boring, but I needed to be able to set up a base for the story. And sorry for the really long Author's Note!
Any mistakes are mine, yes that means I don't have anyone but my computer to help me! Hehe, ok so you probably don't want to read my author's note, just the story, right? Well then read on! =D
Disclaimer: Can't forget these! Don't want to get sued or anything… Here goes: "No I do not own Wicked, no I do not own RENT, no I do not own any musicals or songs. However I do wish I owned Norbert Leo Butz." *Ahem* Did I say that last part aloud?
Chapter 1/Tune Up
It had been two weeks. It had been exactly two weeks since she had lost her best friend and ex-roommate. The week before that she had lost her ex-fiancée. And now that the wizard was gone and Morrible in South Stairs, she was left alone to rule Oz.
Glinda didn't know what to do with herself, or anything else for that matter. Oz was in terrible condition and all of the Ozians were looking to her to fix it. After the "melting" as the Ozians called it, Glinda was sent in front of all of the Emerald City to confirm that her best friend was dead. How she kept that smile she would never know. Maybe it was plastered to her face after all of the other times of faking happiness when all she wanted to do was cry.
As much as Glinda wanted to cry and scream and drown in grief, she knew she couldn't. She had made a promise to her best friend and she intended to keep it. She was going to make Elphaba proud no matter what, even if it was the death of her.
Glinda had found it easy to clear the Animal banns once the Wizard was gone. All she had to do was lift the banns and make sure that word spread through all of Oz that the Animals were free. Once the announcement was made, it wasn't hard at all after that. However, there was the devastation of the Animals that had been capture under the rule of the Wizard. All of them had been silence, no speaking out for what was right, even poor Doctor Dillamond. Glinda knew that all these Animals should be allowed to speak again, so with a little help from schools she had set up and some magic, the Animals were well on their way to speaking once again.
She now found Oz in a much better state physically, but there were still some emotional scars. Since Glinda was now in charge of Oz, those first two weeks she had been very busy. Now that things had settled somewhat, she decided that it was time to heal the emotion scars for the Ozians.
She remembered that one of the first things she did as ruler was that she got rid of the lie known as "Wizomania." Now that the theatre was empty she decided it was time for a new show to come into place. She still wanted the theatre to hold a musical because they always seemed to bring out strong emotions, whether happy or sad. She also wanted this musical to remind the Ozians that they could get through these tough times.
After a day of searching through screenplay after screenplay she finally found the one. It was written by a man from the Emerald City named Jonny Starson. The musical was perfect and she new just the right people to play most of the characters in this musical, RENT.
***
She had found everyone she wanted and they were all now conversing with each other in the theatre. This was more of a reunion then a meeting for as you see, they all went to school together.
Thanks for reading! So please review? =)
