As Always -Greengirl16
Fiyero swung from a rope he tied to the tree and landed on the gallows platform. "Let the green girl go," he said pointing his riffle at the cloaked man.
There was a gasp from the crowd and confusion in the back of the crowd, but all of them want to know what in Oz was going on.
Elphaba opened her eyes. "Fiyero! What are you doing here," she questioned. "Saving you of course," he replied with a smile. She smiled back and then glanced at Boq making a mad dash towards the lever. Fiyero saw this and chased him. He caught his cloak and it ripped off revealing the tin man. Fiyero was shocked he knew the tin man hated Elphaba, for whatever reason, but he didn't think he was capable of killing her.
The tin man sneered at the intruder, which he recognized to be Fiyero, and threw his axe at him. Fiyero attempted to dodge the axe, but it hit him below the chest. "NO," Elphaba screamed bloody murder. Her powers kicked in and her rope snapped and Boq was thrown off the platform by an unknown force.
Elphaba rushed to Fiyero's side. He was bleeding, but he smiled at her and said, "don't worry I'll be fine." His eyes were starting to glaze over. Elphaba was frantic so she started to recite a spell.
"Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen. Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen." She recited this again and again until a bright, white light shone over Fiyero. Eventually the light became so strong Elphaba was forced to look away.
The light dimmed down and Elphaba turned back to face the scarecrow. Fiyero woke up and stood up perfectly fine. "Thanks," he whispered to her. "Anytime, now let's get out of here," she replied with a quick glance around. The crowd was shocked to see that their supposedly "hero" was actually friends with the witch. As for Boq, he was still laying on the ground due to his pretty bad fall.
They both grabbed each others hands and ran and jumped off the platform. They sailed over a few of the crowd members and Boq then they landed on two feet with a thud. "She's a wicked cat," a lady shouted from the crowd. Boq glanced up and saw the witch escaping with the scarecrow…? Elphaba and Fiyero dashed into the forest without looking back.
Boq slowly stood up and shouted "well what are you waiting for? Seize them!" The guards all broke from their state of shock and rushed after the witch. Boq screwed back on his right hand and followed.
Elphaba glanced back at Boq, who had taken the lead. "He is going to catch us," she cried. Fiyero glanced at his panicked girl friend. He didn't know what to say, simply saying don't worry wouldn't calm her nerves, he knew that.
Elphaba's mind started to wander. If Nessa never had cast that spell she wouldn't be here right now. If there was only a way to reason with Boq… Wait a clock tick she thought… She then started reciting "Elaka neh man uh tam." She turned around and sure enough Boq had collapsed just like Fiyero had. "Sorry for the years of tin," Elphaba said taking one last glimpse of the tin man laying there and then she continued running through the woods.
Boq woke up extremely angry. What wicked spell did she cast on me now he thought to himself? He quickly got up and continued running in the direction he had last seen the witch run. Soon enough he found himself panting and exhausted. This hasn't happened to me since I was…human. He glanced down at his hand. He jaw dropped at the sight of human flesh. Elphaba had helped him…
