And they have Chistery!
Glinda gasped at what she heard and her eyes widened in shock and fear. "No, no. They wouldn't attack you. They know better." Glinda then broke away from started pacing.
"My sweet you are going to have to slow down. The people of Oz have every right to attack the Wicked Witch of the west and her minions."
"But they don't. Your name is cleared my love; you have nothing to fear," Glinda said with deadly seriousness.
Elphaba's mouth hung aghast until she fully realized what Glinda had said, then her eyes shown with anger. "You broke your promise? How could you I thought that you promised me that you wouldn't ever try to clear my name. Even after I returned to you I made you promise me that you wouldn't. How could you?" Elphaba's eyes flashed dangerously.
"I'm sorry Elphie I really am. But I couldn't stand it any longer and some one asked me why I cared so much about the animals and one thing lead to another and everything just came out." Glinda said in a hurried rush and was almost to the point of crying. She knew that she had broken her promise to Elphaba and knew that it could lead to her leaving again. And that scared her more than anything.
Elphaba saw the tears welling up in Glinda's eyes and her heart melted some. She knew exactly why she was about to cry. "Shh my sweet it's alright." Elphaba pulled Glinda into an embrace and whispered in her ear. "You aren't going to lose me not ever again. But how could you? They could have rioted right there in the streets and try to hurt you."
"It wasn't all my fault though." there was this little girl who, I think, helped change the mind of many of the people. Then my parents, Shell, and even Fiyero helped clear your name elsewhere."
"Did the little girl say where she was from?"
"No, she just said that she used to live in one of the Resistance camps."
"Mirvina! I should have known that she would come and try to clear my name when she became older." Elphaba let go of Glinda and started to pace.
"What? You know this girl?"
"Of course I do! There's not very many children in the Resistance camps. She was very nice and always interested in what I had to say. She did not understand why I had to hide away from the world. She said I was the nicest person in Oz and everyone else was wrong."
"Well then I would say that she is right you are the nicest person in Oz." Glinda said stepping in front of Elphaba stopping her pacing. "Just breath Elphie. This will all work out you'll see."
"How can you know that?"
"I don't."
"You told all of Oz that I'm alive and you don't know whats going to happen?"
"Yes I did and it will be fine. You just have to trust me."
"I do trust you I just can't see why you would risk getting your self killed to clear my name." She said gently cupping Glinda's cheek.
Glinda sighed softly, "I did it because I love you to much just to let you hide away from the world."
"But what would have happened if something went wrong and you got hurt what would have happened then? Would it had been worth it then?"
"Yes it would have because you would have been able to live a better life."
"No I wouldn't have I would have lost you and that would have devastated me."
"Elphie your sweet." Glinda said kissing Elphaba softly. "I understand but what is done is done. And I don't regret it. Now I'm sure Chistery is fine it's late and we should go to bed."
Glinda didn't bother show Elphaba to her room yet and they were almost asleep when there was a knock on the door.
"Miss Glinda we have a problem."
A/N: I'm sorry that it took me so long to get this up hopefully I can get it up faster. Life just got in the way. Thanks for still reading this though.
