Oh my goodness, could this possibly be...
Yes!
A oneshot that is NOT Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy. Wowsers.
I saw "Wicked" on May 8 for the first time, and it was utterly amazing. I had this idea after seeing the show. So, a fair few spoilers follow.
Wickedness must be punished!
Punished...
"This is more than just a service to the Wizard! I have a score to settle with Elph-"
No. He didn't know her. He never knew her. He never wanted to know her, or meet her, or acknowledge that they actually spoke on friendly terms.
Those days were different, long gone. She had thrown all their memories away, made everyone ashamed of themselves for ever speaking to her, the abomidable green girl.
He never liked her, anyways. Sure, being Boq, the Munchkin, he always had a curious mind, and the green girl had certainly drawn his attention to her the first time he met her. Sure, it was strange, and a bit frightening, but her sister was a helpless creature, bound into that chair, with that tragically beautiful face...
But Galinda had caught his attention first. And Galinda loathed the living emerald. Everyone loved Galinda. She was so good, too good. She was never wrong. Her loathing towards the girl was not meaningless. So he, too, loathed the girl.
And her sister. Damn that girl in the chair, the leader of the Munchkins. One act of kindness, just to attain Galinda's praisings, and he had condemmed himself into slavery. Nessarose. The Thropp girl, needy of everything, and everyone. And her sister, the "phosphorecent" gir. The strange girl, who outshone Galinda in school, with her skin, her attitude, her magic...
That evil magic.
The two sister's shared it.
"You'll lose you're heart to me, I tell you!"
"Nessa, let him go!"
"Shut up, Elph- !"
"Even if I have to...magic-spell you!"
He backed away from the two girls, the Wicked Witches, both born to spread nothing but wickedness...
He felt loathsome, he felt heartless...
Heartless...
Where was his heart?!
"Nessa...Nessarose, stop it!"
"My...heart! It feels like it's shrinking...!"
A horrified, pretty face, and a horrified, green face, both fading from his eyesight...
"It's due to her I'm made of tin, her spell made this occur!" The crowd gasped, and the Tinman grinned malisciously, the same grin Boq had grinned when he recieved a higher grade mark on his paper than the smartest girl in his class...the green girl.
He'd run away, horrified. The rumours were true. Nessarose was as wicked as her sister. She enslaved the Munckins, ruling ruthlessly. The Munckins lived in poverty. She wore those glittering silver shoes. She cared not one bit about them.
And she...she was really the spawn of wickedness. Why else would someone be born such a horrific color? Green...she was envious of the goodness in others. Goodness made her sick, made her queasy.
"So for once I'm glad I'm heartless, I'll be heartless killing her!"
Boq, the Tin Woodsman, rallied the witch hunters into a frenzied cheer, and again he grinned. His sharpned ax was slung over his shoulder, and he led the with hunters towards Kiamo Ko, where that stupid prince was expectedly hiding her.
The green girl.
Elphaba.
Kill the Witch!
No. He did not know Elphaba. She had no such name. There never was an Elphaba. Only the green girl. The green, wicked girl. The girl who'd fled to the west.
The Wicked Witch of the West.
Wickedness must be punished!
Punished!
For good!
