Part 4: Pleasure and Pain

Glinda awoke to see night had descended upon them. A small fire had been made and the moon was nearly full so with the two one could still see what was around.

Glinda scanned the open area, but Elphaba was no where to be seen. "Elphie?" She whispered as she stood up and walked out towards the line of trees. Nothing happened at first, so she tried again. "Elphie?" Just then Glinda felt a pair of hands wrap around her waist.

The blonde gave a gasp of surprise, but was soon comforted by a familiar voice, "It's just me, my sweet." Elphaba's voice cooed to her.

"Elphie I...ohhhhh." Glinda began as the green woman started to trail kisses on the back of her neck. When the kisses on her neck finally stop Glinda felt herself being turned around so she was now face to face with the green witch.

Elphaba then took Glinda's lips for a passionate kiss. Lips feasted on one another for several long moments before they parted to regain air. Once they recovered their breath Elphaba lifted Glinda up into her arms cradling her in a protective and tender manner before laying her on the blanket where they had their picnic not too long ago. They shared another kiss as Elphaba got on the blanket herself and settled her own body on top of Glinda's. After they parted Glinda peered deeply in Elphaba's brown eyes as she began to caress a green cheek.

"I love you, my sweet." Elphaba whispered. "There is something I want to do to you. Something that I haven't done since that time we shared a bed on the road to the Emerald City to see the Wizard of Oz."

"And what's that?" Glinda asked, all ready knowing the answer.

"I want to make love to you." The green witch replied. "Will you let me?"

"Yes, please, Elphie." Glinda answered her voice husky.

Elphaba then started to run her hands down Glinda's sides and across her stomach. The blonde witch then closed her eyes as she savored the light, tender, touches of her green lover. Elphaba's hands started to crawl back up and cupped Glinda's breasts as she began to massage them gently through the fabric of the dress. Glinda moaned as Elphaba hands began to make circular motions. The blonde witch then reached her own hands up to touch Elphaba, but the green woman just pinned Glinda's hands above her head.

"Tonight it's all about you, my sweet." Elphaba whispered, her voice charming.

"But, Elphie..." Glinda began, but was silenced when a pair of green lips crashed against her own.

"You're so beautiful." Elphaba replied, as her hands lingered by the buttons of Glinda's dress.

"Oh, Elphie." Glinda answered, her voice heavy with desire.

The green witch went right to work on the buttons on Glinda's dress. Every time the dress was pulled lower Elphaba would place a kiss on the newly exposed skin. Once the dress was full removed Elphaba wasted no time throwing it to the side. She then removed her own black attire until she was naked before traveling her hands down from Glinda's cheek to her stomach and back up again to take a hold of Glinda's breasts. Her fingers teased the nipples before removed the bra so Glinda's breasts were exposed. Elphaba then leaned her head down and started suck on one of Glinda's hardened nipples.

Glinda's breath started to come out in short gasps as she moaned, "Elphie, oh yes, Elphie!" Glinda soon started to squirm as Elphaba pinched the nipple with her teeth. Using one of her free hands Elphaba began to massage the blonde's woman's other breast. Glinda in turn moaned louder in response. The green woman smiled when she saw how much she was affecting her. After giving ample time to Glinda's breasts Elphaba continued downward and tenderly planted kisses on Glinda's stomach and legs.

"Elphie, I need you to, ohhhh." Glinda replied, as her arousal began to heighten intensely. Elphaba only grinned and then moved up a little to placed kisses on the inside of Glinda's thighs. The blonde woman then started to writhe in pleasure as Elphaba got closer to where she wanted her to go.

The green witch then slowly removed Glinda's pink panties and placed them to the side before trailing her head back up to take Glinda's lips for a fiery kiss. Elphaba drew out the kiss until her blonde lover's breath became ragged. Then and only then did the green witch dip a hand downwards so it rested between Glinda's legs. "Elphaba, please, oh please." Glinda begged, as her legs started to buckle.

The green woman pressed her lips again to her lover's before thrusting two fingers into Glinda. With a loud moan Glinda began to ride the waves of pleasure her green lover was giving her. After a few quick thrusts Elphaba started to develop a steady rhythm. The blonde woman in turn gave off soft cries as the pace became more defined. Elphaba then took her free hand and started to massage one of Glinda's breasts. "YES, ELPHIE, OHHH YES!" Glinda moaned, as her body throbbed and shook with great force as the pressure her body was building at an enormous rate. Elphaba then added another digit to her rhythm.

"Let go, I want to hear you, Glinda." Elphaba replied, as she picked up her pace a little when she saw her blonde lover was at the edge. With a few more strokes Glinda climaxed hard and her body went limp from the overwhelming feelings still rushing throughout her slender frame.

As Glinda was catching her breath Elphaba rolled off of her blonde lover and pulled her against her in a comforting and protective manner. "Are you all right, my sweet?" The green witch asked.

"I'm better than all right. Thank you for that, Elphie, thank you. I love you." Glinda answered, as she cuddled into Elphaba's embrace and gave her a searing kiss before laying her head in the crook of the green woman's shoulder.

Elphaba grinned widely at her lover's response and watched as her lover's eyes fluttered close before whispering, "I love you too. Now sleep, my pretty. Tomorrow we leave Oz."

...X...

It was very early in the morning when Elphaba gently shook Glinda awake. "Glinda? Wake up, my sweet, we must go now."

"Elphie, the sun hasn't even come up yet. Why must we leave so early?" Glinda asked, as she rubbed her eyes and yawned.

"We must leave when a rainbow is present. Also we can't let anyone see us when we make our escape, so the cover of darkness proves to be the best option." The green woman answered, as she stamped out the all ready dying camp fire. "Come on wake up, rise and shine."

"After what you did to me last night how can you think I would be awake?" Glinda asked, with a giggle, as she pulled herself from the blanket, and started searching for her dress. "Elphie, have you seen my dress?"

"It right here." Elphaba replied as she picked it up and brought it over to Glinda. However, before handing the dress into her lover's hands the green woman leaned her head down and captured Glinda's lips for a quick kiss. "I'm sorry we have to leave so early, but I promise after we leave Oz I will make it up to you."

"Good to hear." Glinda answered, as she started to put her dress on. Once she was nearly done she turned to Elphaba. "Elphie, can you help do me up? I can do it myself but it's faster if you help."

Elphaba walked over to Glinda and started buttoning her lover dress and said, "I thought I all ready did you up last night."

"Behave yourself Elphie." Glinda replied with a giggle.

"If I must." Elphaba answered, as she finished buttoning the dress. She then made sure they had everything before getting on her broom and hoisting Glinda up behind her and taking off into the sky.

As they neared where closer to the Emerald City Elphaba looked towards the sky and saw dark clouds coming in, and her face dropped. There was no way they could leave now. The green witch feared she would be melted away by the army of rain drops that looked like they were going to fall from the sky any minute now.

"Elphie, where are you going? I thought we were leaving?" Glinda questioned as she noticed the broom had stopped moving was just hovering.

"We can't leave now." Elphaba answered. "By the looks of those clouds it's going to rain soon and well you know me and water. So we're just stay at my old tower until tomorrow then we can leave." With that Elphaba led her broom in direction of her tower.

"All right." Glinda replied, as she nuzzled her face in the back of the green woman's neck. Glinda didn't care that they weren't leaving right away. As long as Elphaba was with her she didn't care where they went.

It was early morning when they made it back to the tower. With great haste Elphaba directed her broom inside. It was still early so Elphaba hoped no one saw them. After getting inside Elphaba could see Glinda was tired from what had happened the previous night so she lifted her blonde lover into her arms and placed her on a layer of blankets she had used as a bed for the pass five years.

"Elphie?" Glinda whispered, when she felt her back hit the padding.

"Rest, my pretty. I'll be back very soon. I need to get some more food from the farmer's fields before they start making their rounds." Elphaba answered, as she kissed Glinda's cheek before getting back on her broom, and flying out the window towards the fields.

Unfortunately someone had seen them and his body was fulled with shock and rage. He couldn't believe that the Wicked Witch was alive, but what shocked him even more was he couldn't believe that Glinda was willing to be by this green woman's side. He didn't know how the Wicked Witch of the West had survived being melted, but he was going to make sure she wouldn't live too much longer so it didn't really matter in the long run.

...X...

About ten minutes passed before a loud noise woke Glinda from her sleep. She opened her eyes confused where the sound came from. Just then she heard pounding footsteps coming up from the staircase of the tower, and before Glinda could think twice three of Sir Chuffery's guards burst through the door.

"Your Goodness! Thank the Unnamed God we found you." One guards shouted, as he rushed to her side. "Sir Chuffery we found her!" The other two guards were searching the tower as Chuffery walked into the room.

"Do you find the her captor, the Wicked Witch?" Chuffery asked.

"She's not here, Sir." The second guard answered.

"Shit, oh well, we'll get her all in good time. At least my wife is safe." Chuffery replied, his voice crude, as he pulled Glinda to her feet and kissed her roughly. Glinda tried to pull away but he held on to her with a painful grip. His breath smelled of whisky. Not to mention his clothes stunk of smoke. "Let's get out of this abomination of a place." With that he pushed Glinda in front of him as they started down the stairs.

'Oh, I hope Elphaba is safe.' Glinda thought to herself as they made it down the stairs and out of the tower.

"We have much to talk to about once we get back home." Sir Chuffery spat in Glinda's ear as he dung his nails into her skin in anger. "Much to discuss."

"Sir look!" One of the guards yelled, as a figure riding on a broom could be seen passing over them with great speed.

Sir Chuffery saw the pointed hat and the black cloak and quickly shouted to his men, "There's the Wicked Witch of the West! Shoot her down! Shoot her DOWN!"

His guards took up their rifles and began shooting at the her. Many bullets flew into the sky aimed to kill. Just then as the last bullet was fired and even though it was hard to tell it seemed like it had hit, for the group watched as the Wicked Witch started descending down in the direction of a small lake.

Glinda's heat began to beat wildly when she saw was the figure on the broom heading in the direction the water. 'Sweet Oz, pull up Elphie. Pull up!' Glinda screamed, in her mind, as she watched the figure on the broom fall towards the lake. But Elphaba didn't pull up and Glinda watched in horror as the figure on the broom fell violently into the water with a great splash.

'Sweet Oz, NO! Elphie!'

"HA! The Wicked Witch of the West has crashed into the lake!" Sir Chuffery shouted, in victory once she saw the figure on the broom collided into the water. He then grabbed Glinda's arm harshly and dragged her down to get a better look. Sir Chuffery and Glinda only made it down a few moments after the guards did.

"Those items are the only things left of the Wicked Witch." One guard said, as he pointed to Elphaba's black hat and cloak that was floating out in the middle of the lake.

"Elphie." Glinda choked when she saw the two objects. She could feel her heart braking in two. No doubt the water had burned Elphaba's skin to nothing.

"She's dead!" Sir Chuffery answered in joy. "The Wicked Witch is dead!" Then his eyes landed on Elphaba's long broom's handle that was floating towards them in the water. "And here is the Wicked Witch's own tool to fly around." He said, as he walked out into the water a little to pick it up. "Here is her very own...mop?" Sir Chuffery replied in confusion when he held it up from the water.

Just then a figure burst out from beneath the water. The figure was wearing Elphaba's hat and was holding her cloak, but anyone could see it was not Elphaba who had crashed into the lake, but in fact Chistery. The Winged Monkey had used a mop and wore some of Elphaba's attire to make his identity look like the Wicked Witch.

Chistery flew as fast as he could away up towards a line of trees. There hovering above them on her broom was the real Wicked Witch of the West. She gave a might cackle at them and before flying away she called out, "You can't kill me that easily, Chuffery. But don't worry I'll be back, FOR GLINDA!"
