The crowd underneath Glinda had slowly started to move away. Glinda stood in her bubble for a few moments, and as soon as everyone was gone, she could feel Elphaba's presence all around her. She brushed away the tears that had fallen from her face, "…Elphie? Are…you here?" There was no response. Glinda knew it was hopeless. Her friend was gone. And it was her fault. She went back to the Emerald City in a daze, not believing what had just happened.

10 years later

"Miss Glinda? The officials of Munchkin land are here."

"Tell them I'll see them at another time."

"But Miss Glinda…"

"That's an order, General."

"Yes Miss Glinda."

Normally, Glinda would have jumped to an opportunity like this, but tonight she wanted to be alone with her thoughts.

Before the General shut the door, Glinda said "General…before you go, tell them I deeply apologize and will have another official of mine meet with them."

"Yes, Miss Glinda. Also, the 10th year annual Wizomania festival is being held next week, we have a lot of work that still needs to be done…"

"I understand General, now goodnight." And with that, the general was gone.

She hated Wizomania more and more as the years went on. It became less of a celebration a more of a bad memory. She sighed and took a large sip of her wine. Glinda had never been much of a drinker, but it slowly became a habit as the years came and went.

She got up from her chair and walked out to her balcony. She had a clear view of all of Oz. She thought about her life and how much it had changed. She got everything she had ever wanted. Money, power, fame. But she was so unhappy. "Glinda…get ahold of yourself you vile, wicked thing. You need to move on. It wasn't your fault. Just forget about them." She looked up at the stars and said "If there ever is a higher power up there in the skies, have mercy on me." She knew she couldn't live this way forever. "It's time."

Glinda went back into her room and got a bottle of pills from her dresser. She knew it would come to this conclusion sooner or later. She opened it up and dumped all the pills in her hand. She chuckled to herself as she imagined the headline in the Ozma News. As soon as she was about to say her final goodbye to the world, the General suddenly burst through the door.

"Miss Glinda…someone has escaped from Oz's Prison Center!"

"What are you talking about, someone escaped?"

"I don't know all the details, the guards were inattentive and I…"

"Exactly WHY were the guards inattentive? I'm not paying them to just sit around all day!"

"I understand Miss Glinda and believe me when I tell you I had a good, long talk with them and they understand that they were wrong and they are really sorry…"

"Oh, they'll be sorry alright. Do you know who escaped, General?"

"I don't know the women's exact name. One of the other soldiers told me what it was, but I can't seem to remember…odd name it was..."

"Well do you remember what cell the woman was in?"

"Cell 99…I believe."

Glinda became frozen in place. She knew who was in Cell 99, as a matter of fact; Glinda placed the women in there herself!

"General, assemble all of your soldiers IMMEDIATELY. This woman is very dangerous, and needs to be captured right away. I want to you to start looking for her. TONIGHT. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, Miss Glinda." The general left.

Glinda continued to stand in a frozen state. How did she escape? , she thought. I put her in CONFINEMENT for Oz sake! She suddenly heard a noise from her window. She turned and looked, and saw large black clouds forming from a distance.

Madame Morrible had escaped, and Glinda could feel, she was out for vengeance.
