Real or Not Real?
Wicked Two-Shot
Disclaimer: I, The39thThroppDesending, do not, nor will I probably EVER own WICKED or its epicness, nor am I making any money off this. Happy Now?
All of the Ozians were in a joyous mood, spontaneously breaking into song and dancing in the streets, laughing, throwing parties in celebration of the death of the Wicked Witch of the West.
That is, all but one woman. Logically, she had every reason to be happy; evil had been vanquished! The Terror of Oz was long gone, never again to take to the skies. Goodness had won,
right?
'No,' Glinda though bitterly. 'Not at all. In a sick and twisted way, this is a victory for the corrupt society of lies and evil that Oz exists in…' Tears sprang from her eyes.
'Ephie…. Why did you have to go, just like that?' As it would be forevermore, there was no answer. Glinda's vision swam in and out of focus. She gripped her scepter tightly.
"Enough of this bullshit," She whispered softly to herself. 'You're just going to make yourself sick…. Besides, you have to keep up your image. Don't give them a reason to doubt you."
She peeked outside her room. Seeing no one, Glinda promptly shut the door, and screamed; unleashing only the smallest part of her pain. She took a quick breath, applied another layer of
lipstick and left her lonely room. Once outside the palace, she looked at the sky.
It was a beautiful night, with a grand and full moon. Perfect for the assembly announcing the Wizard's "retirement". As she composed herself and practiced her smile, Glinda found herself
drawn to the moon. She glanced up and closed her eyes. Almost at once she heard a distant cry of fright.
She opened her eyes and looked around. No one was near her. She looked upwards once more and gasped.
There, across the moon, standing out against the bright white was the strangest shadow Glinda had yet to see…. Almost as if someone- no, it was either a person with two heads or two
individuals- was riding a broomstick!
Glinda blinked rapidly and rubbed her eyes furiously.
When she looked up again…. It was gone.
