A/N: I would like to thank every one who reviewed for this story; it makes me so happy.

When Elphaba arrived at Glinda's estate in the late afternoon it had stopped raining but everything was still damp and covered in water. The sun was shinning when Elphaba landed in the garden. There was no one there when she landed so she was able to hide in the bushes. Not long after she got herself situated a girl came outside. She wasn't really a girl but a teenager, who looked to be about 13. She twirled around then collapsed onto the damp earth. She then laughed pure joy; she thoroughly enjoyed being outside.

"Miss Crystal, come on inside. Your mother won't be pleased by the fact that you ruined one of your dresses."

This is Glinda's daughter? She doesn't look it in the least. Elphaba was right the girl had no resemblance to Glinda at all. She had dark brown hair with matching dark brown eyes, almost like chocolate. When she is older she will be a beautiful woman.

"Oh well I guess I just gave her another excuse to go shopping then," said Crystal as she got up and tried to straighten her dress. It was a nice dress, a pretty light blue. Elphaba might not have chosen it for herself but it looked nice on the girl. "I'll come in as soon as I check on my flowers I planted last week." she walked over to the bushes were Elphaba was hiding. Crystal was mumbling under her breath something about being "cooped up in that house for two days because of the rain and they expect me not to run outside at the first hint of sunshine?" Elphaba peered out of from her hiding spot to watch Crystal check on her plants. When Crystal looked up she thought she saw some on in the bushes, but when she looked harder all she saw was green.

"Crystal! Come inside now!" Someone yelled from an upper room or balcony. It was a voice that Elphaba recognized, even after 5 years of not hearing it. It belonged to Glinda.

Both Crystal and Elphaba looked up at the balcony. The blonde stood there with her hands on her hips. Elphaba couldn't help but notice that hat she assumed to be Glinda's room faced the western sky. It's probably is just a coincidence that it like that. Elphaba scolded herself.

"Yes, mother. I'll be right there." With that Crystal huffed and stalked away.

Thank goodness, that was close she almost saw me and hopefully they eat a late dinner, so I can sneak into Glinda's room.

A/N: I know it's short. I'm sooo sorry hopefully the next one will be longer. Please review. You'll get a freshly planted flower.
