Erik's POV
I awoke in a strange room in a strange bed a beeping noise seeming to be the only sound I could only hear, my head pounded I moved an inch to the left and groaned in Agony as my side felt like it was on fire, I tilted my head to the left seeing Fiyero and Galinda. Fiyero had his arm around the small Blond girl comforting her she seemed to be crying
"W..What happened?" I asked Groggily, The blond girl went to open her mouth but fiyero whispered something to her she nodded and he started to speak.
"Erik, Elphaba she nearly killed you!" i reached my hand down to touch my side and the slightest contact burned like hell but the day before came to memory all I remember was Elphaba getting mad at me for thinking I was seeing someone else behind her back, which i of course wasn't I wouldn't do such a thing I'm not like the other men who would do that. I then spoke up in her defence
"Elphaba..S..She didn't..t..try to kill me she was just..Scared..that's all" galinda looked up at me she had a hint of guilt in her blue eyes she then spoke up
"Its all my fault."
"What's all your fault girl!" i asked
"I forged a love note pretending to from you to christine" I clenched my fist trying to hold in the abuse but I then exploded from complete Anger and my hand wrapped around her pale throat
"How Dare you!, You selfish inconsiderate little Bitch!" fiyero tried to grab my arm but i glared at him screaming
"If you dare intervene I will crush her pretty little neck" he backed away and I continued
"Why did you do it?" she didn't answer and i noticed her face was turning a shade of quite worrying purple I took my hand away, as she fell to the floor gasping for air, Fiyero ran towards her
"Get out of here!" I turned away but didn't hear them leaving
"Now!" I then heard them run away together slamming the door behind them I stood up from the stupid bed and walked towards the dresser where there was a pair of fresh clothes waiting there obviously Fiero picked them because of how they did not match whatsoever. I sighed and threw threw them Looking at my freshly new stitch a stretching across my lower abdomen
"another one to the collection caused by the one I love the most, Great" I muttered, I must find her but where to look first? I asked myself worriedly, The gardens!
Elphaba's PoV
As I ran through the halls tears rushing down my face, I could feel the cold air piercing my skin, the tears burned through my skin as I screamed in pain. I sprint to my dorm room and frantically smash at the old, delicate, bronze lock. Eventually, after several tries, I managed to open it, I ran over to my room leaving the door wide open and launching my keys upon the kitchen counter. I barged through the doors sending it off of its hinges, my shoulder aching in pain, and I grabbed my broom. I mounted upon it and started conjuring a spell, suddenly, sparks of fire flew around the room, the broom became alive with sparks and colours. I groped the end of the broom and pushed my heels of off the ground as the large broom reached for the skies. I could see the flint skies blinding my emerald green eyes. The tears came to me and burned my eyes, my eyes became bloodshot and I started to loose focus, my thoughts drifted to Erik and his burning state I left him in I remembered the way I shoved Galinda out of the road and left Nessarose to be squirming like a turtle on its back. All these thoughts blinded my focus as I came crashing down. The last thing I saw was a large, fresh, green pasture beside a lovely spouting fountain, the water spouting out of two fish's mouths launching into the air. I could feel the sting of the water as I felt the rough dirt fly toward my face. I tried to life the broom up, I put all my might into it but I came tumbling off of the end of the magical stick. I could see a faint bright light approach my eyes, before I faded into darkness.
I awoke in a dark room, hearing loud banging voices bouncing upon oblivion. I stood in the middle in a trance unable to move my body. My face was emotionless, I could see a tall masked figure off into the distance, only his silhouette, I could see a small girl waving her arms frantically in a big fluffy dress. I then saw a peculiar shaped figure, one sitting down yet moving with no arms and finally a large man, a bit smaller than the masked man with wavy hair dropping down to his shoulders. I tried to approach them and as I moved closer and closer the silhouettes stayed in the same position. The small stout girl waving her arms screaming of some sort, the tall man shouting back, the chair girl sleeping, so it seemed and the wavy hair man standing stroking someone's hair. I could make out some voices in the distance, one a high pitched squealing it sounded like a dying pig, hideous, treacherous. The second a deep, dusky voice with a rough breathing behind his throat. The wheel girl, said nothing, cripple I noticed, no girl, was that her name. The third man had a very strong african accent. I could finally put my tongue on one of the names, Galinda my best friend since childhood. She was the one with the pig voice, my best friend. I can't believe I thought of my best friend like that! I was appalled at myself. I managed to croak out a single word, "Galinda," and then I fell down upon the floor my arms flailing about before they lay dead on the floor
I awoke surrounded by faces, the only one I recognised was Galinda the rest were unrecognisable, I noticed one, not the name but I knew the face, I could make out what happened, he loved me, well he said he did then he betrayed me, something I could not forgive. I cowered in fear as I saw his unmasked face, he noticed my eyes fluttering trying to move my head to the side but it was strapped down. I was forced to look at this monstrosity, I started to squirm around until Galinda noticed me staring in fear at the unmasked man.
"You idiot!" She screamed raising a hand before backhand striking him upon the scars, he whimpered in pain and backed off, "Put that damned mask back on bastard!" She screamed again before backhand slapping him again, Galinda in her small blue fairy dress slapping a tall man with a hideous face. It was coated in scars all across his skeletal face except from his mouth but his lips were bloated and twisted, he did not have nose except a big gaping hole in the center of his face. The scars were blue and purple, his eyes surrounded by eternal black rings, these rings giving the illusion of a glowing sensation projecting from his mismatched eyes. One blue and the other green with a large scar stretching across his left eye. The most of his left, green eye was corrupted in some areas with white blindness, I could tell he was blind in one eye. I noticed a large red rash coating his face, it looked like burn marks, who ever he was, I bet he got beaten and burned for a reason, hideous creature, backstabbing cretin, bastard as Galinda would address him. He lifted a large, black, porcelain mask and placed it upon his scars, all that was left to be revealing was the twisted mouth. Ugly.
"Galinda?" I managed to croak out, she darted around just finishing a strike upon the masked man,
"Yes my dear Elphaba?" She squealed in happiness.
"Where are we, and who are these misfits?" I asked. Elphaba, that was my name, Elphaba Thropp. Has a nice ring to it.
"Well my dear, this is Nessarose, the bitch who lost her arms," She said showing me Nessarose. "This is the diamond man, Fiyero Tigelaar, he is mine so hands off!" She said throwing her arms around Fiyero. She finally moved over to the masked man in disgust. "And this is the Bastard of Destler. Hideous thing. I refuse to tell you his real name, the doctor informed us you had received a small dose of amnesia and I would not like to send the memories of him flooding back!" She said.
The Bastard tried to say something in pain, "I am Er-" He was interrupted by the strike of Galinda's hand upon his stomach, he coughed and she slapped him again, whilst he was bent down, on his face.
"Shut up, it was your fault she is like this! She loved you Bastard and you go behind her back with Christine Daae!" She screamed, she sounded like a banshee when she was angry.
Suddenly, all the thoughts came flooding back to me, Erik Destler, reffered to as Bastard due to him being unwanted, I loved him, he would not scream at me, I don't know why people would scream at me, I wonder why. Anyway, I loved him with all my heart and one day Galinda found a letter upon which it stated that Christine Daae went behind my back with him. Now I know why Galinda was slapping him, I tried to get back at him by throwing a large fireball at him and then taking off into the skies without anyone noticing, I was too distracted by the sadness that I crashed. I was tempted to do it again.
"Get him out of here." I suddenly commanded.
"Yes Miss Elphaba," Fiyero said mockingly.
I unstrapped the belts holding me down before standing up and brushing off the creases in the clothes before seating myself back down. I received many treatment to help me with the pains in my head get better for many days.
Over several weeks I would get several visits from the Bastard, he would gift me with chocolates, cards, balloons, stuffed animals and much more. I would accept these gifts with open arms but then send him straight out after. I had noticed he would bring me drinks as well, mainly hot drinks but today he brought me my least favourite. It was hot chocolate. He strolled in holding the hot chocolate in a mug before handing it to me whilst I was sitting reading a book titled, 'The West of the East', I said all about old fairy tales and mythological beasts. It also said about witches and spells. I had tried a few in the hospital and I had noticed that I was good at the dark spells and some of the casual spells. In the end I concluded that I was a warlock, a user of dark magic. He handed me the hot drink, I took it thinking it would be milk from the doctors water filler, I noticed it burned a bit, maybe it was my mind playing tricks on me, I was hungry and thirsty after all. I groped for the drink, my eyes still glued on the book, I grabbed it by its handle and took a sip of it, I gagged in my throat, I hated the taste of chocolate let alone hot chocolate. I glanced up and saw the unmasked bastard, I screamed in disgust, he was staring at me through his mismatches, scare infested eyes. I jolted causing some hot chocolate to spill over my dress, I picked up the mug and threw the hot drink at his face before standing up and kicking him at the back of his spinning legs. He roared in pain and swiped around the room furiously, knocking over vases and other glasses
"Damn you!" He screamed falling to his knees
I legged it for my room before kicking opened the door and slammed it shut behind me. I ran in and saw Galinda sat in my room with her tabby cat, ready some spells. She also had a broom of her own which was perfect for my next plans.
Erik's POV
she ran from me Galinda had corrupted her mind and ran from me. That day where I had no mask on was Galinda's fault too she said to me
"Take off your mask let her see you for the true bastard you are" and I did Galinda screamed in horror and started striking me that's when Elphaba woke up oh, and how she hated me I saw that look in here eyes Galinda started beating me once more I felt like crushing her neck, which I could. But I couldn't bring myself to do it not when Elphaba was there, And Galinda knew that, that's why she continued, I left, I kept returning bringing small gifts and attempting to say what Galinda had done but she kept sending me out and today she threw the hot beverage In my face it went under my mask and. Scolded the scars, oh how I wanted to tear that damn thing off but I didn't want to scare her so I couldn't, she ran from the room leaving me in complete agony and hell
