A/N: OK so here' a summary.
Summary: What if the Wizard knew about his little green daughter earlier? How would her life be changed? Don't know? Well read and find out!
"Father! Please I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!" Nine-year-old Elphaba plead as her father roughly pushed her out the door. In a situation that involved Elphaba, her magic, and a lamp Frex had finally lost it. He had given her a knapsack with her few belongings and gave her ten minutes before he released the hounds. She scaled the side of the building and went to her room to grab two things that she needed and her father had no idea she had. First she grabbed her green bottle that her mother had given her and gently put it in the knapsack. Second she reached under the bed and grabbed a simple doll. It was in the shape of a scarecrow. It's floppy hat was gently pushed from the scarecrow's blue eyes. She hugged it to her chest, reminiscing of when her mother had helped her make it. She climbed out the window and made her way to the Emerald City.
As daybreak came at the Emerald City, the guards changed at the gate. About five minutes into the day guard's shift a girl came out of the woods, literally shaking. She was so weak from her trek through the woods. She had barely slept because she had to keep moving. She only stopped to get away from wild animals. There was only one that had etched itself in her mind however:
Flashback
A roar echoed through the space Elphaba had made her way to. She stopped fast and whipped her head around, hoping to find the source of the roar. A very pregnant Lion made its way to the clearing. It collapsed in front of Elphaba, breathing heavily.
"Ma'am are you in labor?" Elphaba asked.
"I've been never been called ma'am before, by a human." The Lion responded with a smile on her face. "And yes. I am." She added. Elphaba knelt down and began to stroke the Lion's mane. She had helped with Nessa's birth but didn't know how a Lion's birthing process worked. Suddenly a small Cub came.
"He-He's beautiful." Elphaba said.
"A boy?"
"Yes, most definitely a boy." Elphaba replied. The Lion laid her head back and closed her eyes, though she had a content smile on her face. "Ma'am?"
"All Lions die after giving birth. It's the way of life." With that she died. Elphaba rocked the little Cub before letting it go free. A tear made its way down her face as she looked at the majestic beauty of the Lion. The moon shown brilliantly against her beautiful golden locks. She stood and continued on her way.
She hesitantly knocked on the gate. The man's face came into view. "Can't you read?" The door slammed shut. Elphaba looked around and saw the sign that clearly said, "Ring the Bell." She reached with her remaining strength to get to the bell. She couldn't do it. She fell into the door right when the door opened again.
End Chapter. He he. Tell me what you think!
