AN: YO GUYS! I'm going to London tomorrow and I won't be able to post on friday like I usually do... I'll still be on FF I just won't be doing stories for awhile. Anywho here's the chapter!
"And why have you tied me up?" Maria prodded when Horrible Morrible was done with the coral knot
"You have powers don't you?" Morrible rolled her eyes
"No" Maria lied
Morrible narrowed her eyes "Really? I thought they would've come in by now… hmm" Maria shrugged best she could, she was tied up in a chair. "I'm not buying it Morrible"
"What? there's nothing to buy" Morrible said coolly
"It's obviously not me that you want."
Morrible shrugged this time "Good point. But I need you… And I don't plan on lettin you go afterwards" She sneered, moving round the dark room once more
"Why is jack helping you?" Maria was stalling, just until everyone came and got her
"I think Jack's the one who has to tell you that"
Maria slammed her foot down "Seriously? Morrible! for the last time I don't have whatever it is you want! so stop avoiding each question I ask and tell me already!"
"Jack if you won't tell me then me and the girls will put some knuckle into it!" Nia was joined in agreement by Bonnie, Peach, Raé and Cecelia
"Okay one: stop threatening me. Two I can't tell you where she is. Three I can't tell you why otherwise you'll have to join her" Jack explained that so solemnly that Peach couldn't contain her anger any long and grabbed the front of his shirt pulling him eye level "Look blondie, if you don't at least tell us where she is tell us why you aren't and why Morrible kidnapped her. We all know that just because she's Elphaba's grand daughter doesn't mean Morrible or Angela" Peach shivered "Whatever her name is. Would kidnap her." Bonnie stepped closer smashing her fists together, Nia did the same while Raé tried to calm Cecelia down. "Fine! Fine! just put those things down before you hurt someone… or me" Peach rolled her eyes and let go, Bonnie and Nia let their guard down "Morrible, is my adopted mother" everyone gasped "Yes. I know shocking."
"So If I make this deal with you then you'll not bother me or my friends or family until it's time?" Maria asked cautiously lifting the fountain pen to the paper
"Yes… but does Jack count as a friend?"
"Yeah" Maria shrugged
"really?"
"Yes"
"really?"
"Yes"
"really?"
"Yes"
"really?"
"No"
"Really?"
"Yes"
"Oh"
"Okay fish face shut up so I can sign this" Maria groaned signing the paper "Okay what happens now?"
"You go try and find your friends, tell them that you got out and that I got what I wanted. Your powers. Tell them they've gone but be warned your powers will eventually show through your physical appearance as well." Maria nodded and looked for an exit "Which way?" Morrible pointed towards a staircase "Of course." Maria mumbled before bolting off
Derek found her in central park sitting on the bench that they sat on, on their first date. He noticed she was crying. "Maria?" she looked up and nodded "Are you okay?"
"No"
Derek offered a hand to the green girl "Why don't we go find everyone and take you home" maria nodded again, taking his hand they walked off towards Bonnie's house
"BONNIE! I FOUND MARIA!" Maria winced at the shout, everything had been so dark and quiet in the room she was kept, he green skin was now almost a lime green in result, Bonnie rushed downstairs with everyone including Maria's dad and Bonnie's parents. "Sweet oz Maria! are you okay what happened?". Derek noticed she was a little shaken so he took her to the couch and laid her down, pulling up a blanket for her "Shhhh. She needs sleep" he shushed the worried teenagers and adults. "I need to get to work" Tome groaned when he looked at the time, tracy sighed dragging her husband out after her. "Derek… we need to get to the Gershwin"
"I'll call in sick" he muttered stroking Maria's hair as she slept
"O-okay" Ali stuttered
"But-"
"No 'buts' missis! your need to get greenified! and Derek needs to spendify time with Maria!" Ali rambled dragging the confusified actress out the door into the car and speeding off. The teenagers gave Derek some space getting food or water, doing chores, the occasional TV everything to give Derek space. It was a day or two later that Maria finally woke up, more shaken then when she first came back might I say. Maria shot up breathing hard "D-Derek?" she yelled as tears fell down her face
Derek came running into the room "I'm here, I'm here it's alright" he cooed stroking her hair and hugging her "Everything is fine" he kissed the top of her head
"No it's not" Maria whispered pushing away
"Why isn't it? your home aren't you?"
"Mor- morrible m-made me s-sign a contract" Derek listened closely "A-and now she's- she's gonna-" Maria burst into tears with out another word, Derek didn't know if he was confusified, upsetified or just plain concerned for Maria. "Calm down, calm down" he rubbed circles up and down her back "take a deep breath. That's it. Now what were you trying to tell me?"
one last sob escaped her lips before she explained "M-morrible's g-gonna c-come back for me s-so she can t-take the throne"
"What throne?"
"The Emerald city throne"
