Chapter 28
Megan's POV
Oh my oz!, I couldn't help but feel hot tears run down my cheeks as Daken and Daniel sat Lin and Lucy down on the underground infirmary beds. I wasn't sure which one was worse. Lin's chest or Lucy's burns. They were both so horrible. I wasn't sure who I should start healing first. Lucy was still out cold and looked very pale.
"Meg, please heal Luce first please.." Lin sobbed weakly as Glin held her close making sure she didn't touch her chest. I nodded and ran over to Lucy, oz the burns were red and black around the edges, they stretched from her cheeks down her neck and ended at her shoulders. I could only imagine what pain she would feel once she woke up. I began to heal them as gently as I could but they were so deep, so tender. I knew for sure that these burns wouldn't go away they would scar Lucy's neck and shoulders. The burns on her face might heal to where they are invisable but the memories and pain will always be there.
"Lady Glinda, I got here as soon as I could." The young nurse came running in, her face in worry. Well I don't think you could count her as a doctor or nurse she was too young. Glin nodded with wet eyes.
"Its okay Oakley just please help Lin. Her chest..." Glin couldn't control her tears any longer, she cried and burried her face in Lin's curls. Oakley was Jacob's daughter, the leader of the Underground. She had been here her whole life and knew a lot about injuries, her mother was the head doctor here but Oakley helped any chance she could.
Glin gently laid Lin flat onto the bed, I could feel she was so weak. Oakley looked over Lin's chest, she cringed when she saw the full wound.
"Oh my...A shot of Dark Magic, this isn't good Glinda. The only way to heal this wound for healing treatments and time. I'm sorry I wish there was more I could do. " She explained with a sigh as she began to warp a bandage around Lin's chest and her collarbone to keep the bandage steady. Glinda stroked Lin's hair sadly. "Thank you Oakley...Thank you." she whispered kissing Lin's head softly. Finally I had finished healing or at least what I could do for Lucy for now.
"I will have to heal her again later on tonight. She should wake up soon." I said as Riley sat down in the chair beside Lucy's bed. She began to cry softly.
"GLINDA! LIN!" Norberts worried calls filled the room as he Fiyero. Elphie, Dimitri and Kerry ran in. Once they saw Lin and Lucy they all gasped. Norbert immediately pulled Glinda into his arms.
"Oh Glinda, Love I was so worried, what happened to my baby?" Then Dimitri pulled me into his arms and kissed me.
"Never do that to me again." He said tightening his grip around my waist. I nodded.
"I promise, I promise I'm sorry." I said choked with emotion and kissed him back.
Elphaba's POV
I sat down on the other side of Lin's bed and saw her chest. "Oh Lin! Your chest..." Then I saw her face, she looked so weak and frail. This was the worst I had ever seen her. It broke my heart and I'm sure it broke Kerry's and Norbert's just as much. Zandra was going to pay! Oh Oz I was going to kill her myself, she had shot Lin with dark magic. Something that made me want to go and kill her now. I looked around to Lucy...Oz. Then I noticed the small brunette sitting at the side of her bed crying. There was no way that was her. I turned to face her,
"Riley?.." I whispered and she lifted her head and I saw it was Riley! Glin's sister I couldn't believe it. She smiled softly when she saw me and hugged me.
"Hi Elphaba...I see you have a little..one on the way.." She began to choke up. Why was she so-? Then that's when it hit me.
"Where's Arya! Where's Amanda!" Kerry asked before I could ask the question myself.
"MANDA!" Lucy yelled weakly as she woke up. Megan held her down gently.
"Luce be still. Your hurt be still or you will be in more pain." Lin began to cry harder and tried to sit up.
"Arya...NO I have to go. Arya, Manda, they have to okay.." She gringed in pain as Glinda pushed her back to lay down. I could already put the pieces together just by seeing how Lin and Lucy were acting. Arya and Amanda had stayed behind so they could leave. By Oz let them be okay.
Elphie, Arya has to be okay...I don't think Riley and Lin could take it if she never came back. How can we make sure? Kerry asked nervously and I sighed. Kerry I don't know what we can do. All we can do is hope.
Lin's POV
Arya...Manda...Please be okay. I cried and felt myself in worse pain. Not from my chest but my heart. If Arya and Manda wasn't okay because of me, I would never forgive myself. Arya was like..no she was my sister. Blood or not, she was. I had to fight this pain, I had to go back. I tried to get up again and was stopped by pain and by Dad.
"Lindy, lay down baby. Please be still. I will make sure Arya and Amanda is fine. I promise Lindy." Dad's soothing words calmed me down a little as he stroked my hair. "We both promise, Riley, Lucy. Amanda will be back. They both will come back." Fiyero said sounding very hopeful.
"They will make it kiddo I promise. Now you just rest." Fiyero whispered in my ear he kissed my head. I sighed feeling more tears fall and Fiyero moved and went to Lucy, as Kerry and Elphie came into view.
"Lin, you will be okay. We will call Jen and get her here okay. Would that help you?" Kerry asked wiping the tears gently from my cheeks with her thumb. I only nodded.
"I..missed you guys." I whispered feeling myself growing weaker .. Kerry smiled softly,
"And we missed you more than you can imagine baby." Elphie said and Kerry kissed my head.
"Lucy..?"
"Yes Lin.." She asked weakly. "Manda, is proud of you. I know she is.." I said feeling more tears come to my eyes.
"Thank you Lin." She whispered before closing her eyes again and falling sleep with Riley stroking her hair. Daken and Daniel stayed off a bit, I guess so I could see my family. I felt stronger in the sense that I had my family back...well not all of my family.
Arya...Manda..
Just then there was a sound of someone running.
"WHERE IS SHE! PLEASE TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!" Then the door flung open and I gasped to find Mala standing in the doorway. But there was something different about her. Her eyes were lighter and so was her hair. She looked scared and worried. Like a different person, then she spoke on the verge of tears.
"Where is Lucy! Where is my Daughter!"
Say WHAT! Lol I know HUGE Cliffie right? Sorry I couldn't resist, what does this mean. You will see in the next chapter. Reviews make me happy.
