Glinda stared at the ancient page before her and froze at the sight. She sprung to her feet and walked over to the light and made sure her eyes weren't playing tricks on her. Once she was certain, she dropped the book from her grip and felt rather faint. Afraid she too would fall to the floor; she sunk into the nearby chair and rested her eyes. This was it, what she had been waiting for, what Elphaba told her to do, but yet it filled her heart with worry and lack of confidence in herself. How could she do such a huge task? Sure she had grown during the past few months, determined to expand her knowledge in the subject, she had impressed herself often with what she was learning and what she was capable of but this was something else. Despite her uncertainty in the matter she couldn't refuse. Her head was saying no, it's impossible, her heart crying out to her to do it, she had nothing to lose. After calming down a bit, she wasted no time at re-reading the spell and memorize every enchantment.
''For you my Elphie.''
Glinda walked through an endless field of tall long grass that was only just smaller than she and felt at peace. A feeling she was not common of nowadays. She couldn't be certain at first but she caught a glimpse of a figure in the distance. As she approached, it became clear the figure camouflaging into the greenness of the grass was her Elphie. She turned her slow walk into a run and called out to her. She threw her arms around her and with that she vanished.
''Elphie!'' She searched the area, but there was no trace of her.
''Elphie where are you?''
''I'm here.'' Glinda turned around and before she could speak back was pulled into an embrace.
''Elphie I love you.'' But when Glinda looked up, she had vanished once more. She woke up, hot and bothered by her dream that felt so real and felt such sadness. She would give anything for her back and was determined to cast this spell she knew so well by now once and for all.
She wrapped her shawl around her, to keep her from the cold icy air tonight and escaped her house without being seen by anyone. It was night and everyone would be sleeping, she herself would be if it wasn't for what she vowed to do. She headed as fast as she could, without running and was soon by herself in the room hidden away in the furthest side of the garden. She made sure the doors were locked behind her and unpacked the many items she needed for the spell. She placed them all in a row on the ground, bottles, liquids, the Grimmerie and most importantly Elphaba's black hat. With this she held it to her chest and kissed it before placing it amongst the rest. Grimmerie already placed before her on the dusty floor, she sighed and collected her thoughts before beginning the spell. She knew it off by heart now, but performing it was something she had yet to do. Tonight she would bring Elphaba back to life.
