Hello everyone this is my first Fanfic so I may not be perfect but I would love any and all reviews so I can improve my work and make more stories.

It's been three day's since I ran away from home. My father hates me, and my mother is dead. My only friend is myself. We make good company. We like the same books and food.

I'm currently hiding in the Great Gilikkin forest, the Great Gilikkin is awfully great. The shadows, fog and distant noises don't help ease my apprehension. I keep on walking though, despite my conscious telling me I'm crazy. I've been eating lots of liko berries to keep my energy up and I built a tree house using my magic.

I'm quite proud of it. I kind of just let my magic roam free, I've been having to attempt to control it all this time it was actually fun. I swooshed my hands every which way and the next thing I know branches and leaves are zooming through the sky and placing themselves into a little home in a tree. Nothing too spectacular, just four walls and a roof, some open windows with no shutters or blinds let fresh air in. I also created some sort of climbing wall on the tree, making grooves for my feet and hands to lift up on and manage my way into my new hiding place.

I was going to miss Nessie, she's only eight, but she won't miss me I bet. I wager father will somehow make her forget me. I secretly am sad about it, but I gotta try not to be. That's in the past now. Now I'm just Elphaba, no Thropp added. It was easy, really. I just walked out the front door and didn't look back. Nessa was asleep and even if my father heard me he wouldn't go after me.

An owl swoops over my head with a loud 'whoo' sound, sending my heart beating ten times cold is biting into me like a munchkin eating a grep cake.I didn't pick a good time to run away!

I don't know how long I'll stay here or if I'll ever go back but I do know one thing. My fathers not my only enemy, Animals have been disappearing and it's horrible. Here in oz some Animals can talk but they are being kidnapped and turned mute. Whoever is doing this must be stopped and I can't do it alone there must be someone out there who can help me.

For now though I just have to wait in my treehouse. Hopefully my opportunity will come soon, I can't wait to do something with my life!

Hope you loved chapter one can't wait to write more and I would love it if you reviewed!
