Chapter 21

"Morrible!" Elphaba sneered. "Why are you everywhere?"

Morrible smirked. "I guess it's one of my many talents."

Fiyero grabbed Glinda's arm and pulled her to where she was just as Elphaba cast a shield around the three of them.

"Good job, dearie, very clever. You're protecting yourself from us but you've also gotten yourself stuck there as well. But don't worry I'm very patient." She said with an evil grin. She turned to face the members of the gale force who had followed her in "Be ready to wait." She warned as she walked off.

"I thought you said you were patient?" Glinda asked.

"Oh no dearie. I have more important things to concern myself with." She grinned and walked off.

"Now what?" Glinda whispered to Elphaba.

"Now we wait."

"Until what?"

"Until they start to get drowsy. It is after all past midnight." Glinda nodded. That seemed reasonable. So Glinda sat down on the ground and crossed her legs.

Elphaba started whispering quietly under her breath.

"What are you doing?" Fiyero asked her.

"Shh! I need to concentrate!"
"What's she doing?" Glinda whispered.

"Concentrating." Fiyero answered.

"Oh."

"What do you not understand about concentrating? I need silence!" Elphaba snapped. Fiyero and Glinda immediately got silent. Elphaba felt sorry for snapping at them but she really did need silence. She closed her eyes, trying to gather energy.

Suddenly she felt a little pull from her midsection. She jerked her eyes open and looked down.

"Fae?" Yero asked. She said nothing but she was beginning to feel a strange sensation. Almost as if her magic was doubling in power. She felt energized all of the sudden.

"Ma-tin-terre-bou- ge-to-nous," She whispered, hoping it was the right spell.

"Fae?" Fiyero whispered just as in a burst of light they appeared back at Kiamo Ko.

"Woah! What just- Elphie?" Glin asked, confused.

"Did you just?" Fiyero asked. Elphaba said nothing just nodded her head.

"I- that's never worked before." She confessed.

"Then how-"

"I think-" She realized how silly she was going to sound right before she said it but she did anyways. "I think the baby helped." Fiyero's eyes widened as he stared at her midsection.

He knelt down, placed his hands on her stomach and whispered, "Thank you."

"Fifi, it don't be silly-"

"It just moved." Elphaba said.

Fiyero grinned. He waved at your stomach. "Hi! I'm your daddy." He said in a baby voice. Glinda didn't say anything just stared at the two (well three) of them longing for what they had. Elphaba stared at Fiyero, who was continuing his conversation with the baby, smiling bigger than she ever had.

Yeah I kinda update fast. I don't like leaving you guys in agony. So heres so happiness to hold you over but don't worry it's not over yet. Does anyone have a gender prediction (or any sort of prediction) for the baby? I love hearing what you think is going to happen.
