My powers are far superior to those of my pretty little sister; unlike her I was born with them. And yet it's not enough, I am once again rejected. I don't need this dark curse at all to take Rumpelstiltskin to the place he desperately wishes to go. The gemstone shoes I wear would allow me to take him there, but he chooses Regina over me.

I return to Oz to seek out the wizard again. By now I understand what I need to do, finally I'm going to get the chance I deserve. I will change the past and make sure Mother chooses me and never gives birth to Regina. This self-proclaimed magician is nothing but a thimblerig who owns no real power. He is just one more who has taken advantage of me because he is longing for the magic he does not possess.

"What you seek does not exist. No spell is this powerful", he tries to persuade me as he crawls on the floor by my feet.

I am no longer that desperate woman, who left the only home she ever knew. Now I am fully in control of the gift I own. It can be a thunderstorm, if this is what I want it to be. A force of nature that no one can stand. It's ridiculously easy to knock this fake magician off his throne. His tricks and illusions are worthless. I am what they have always seen in me, and I will no longer hide it. I am the wicked witch of Oz!

No one will ever treat me like rubbish again and deny me the respect I deserve. No one will ever dare to hurt me or even touch me unless I want them to. I am still far from reaching my goal. Yet I don't how or when but one day I will make it. I am going to rewrite my messed up life and erase all the haunting memories and the nightmares. I am twenty-five.

A/N: So these were my 20 cents about Zelena's past. It's kinda obvious for me that her father could have done such things and it makes me sad. Thank your for reading. I would be curious what you think.
