Pinch Punch...First of the month! And that means the brand new chapter!

But before that, here's some responses to some of the reviewers:

GalindaTheGreat- Yes, you were right about tresse meaning hair! Great Job!

blufair- Awesome spell idea! Even though you got it wrong (But you were right about tress being hair), it was still pretty funny for a spell!

And now here's the Chapter you've all been waiting for!


A while later, Galinda was getting herself ready for Open House. Her nails were neatly polished, her dress was without one crease...

All she needed to do now was fix her hair...

Unfortunately at the time, Elphaba was not in the dorm at the given moment (Her and Nessarose went to buy another pretty pink brush at the dollar store for Galinda), so she wouldn't see what happens to poor Galinda just yet.

Galinda brushed her hair for a while, when all of a sudden she heard something...

Hissssss...

"Elphie?" Galinda said nervously. "Is that you?"

Hissssss...

"Elphie, answer me!"

HISSSSS...

"ELPHIE!" Galinda yelled, but then looked in the mirror and screamed,

"MY HAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRR!"

Her blonde hair was no more. Instead, coming from her scalp were green snakes. Live ones, to be exact (Try imaging that and getting a good amount of sleep...Ew).

"HOW DID-" Galinda screeched, but then thought of the first thing that crossed her mind. "Elphie...THAT WITCH!"

Boq came in the room again (Apparently he too went to the dollar store to get a brush for Galinda).

"Galinda!" Boq called her. "I have something pretty and...er...Pink for you!"

Galinda came out of the bathroom and Boq screamed. (And to make things even more freaky, Boq screamed like a little munchkin girl...And fainted.)

"Bick!"

Boq got back to consciousness, but then fainted again at Galinda's hair. Galinda shook him.

"BICK, WAKE UP!"

"I just have one question for you, Galinda..." Boq said as he got up. "What shampoo did you use?"

"Why do you need to know that?" Galinda asked.

"You're a Medusa!" Boq said.

"What the heck's a Medusa?"

"It's what you are!"

"Do you know where Elphie is?"

"Last time I saw her, she was at the dollar-Uh, I mean, the really expensive store down at the corner!"

"Are you sure about that?" Galinda asked, her wand pointing at his face and lighting up a mysterious purple. "Or does my wand think different!"

"OKAY, I'LL CONFESS! She's at the dollar store, I was there too, and I am taller than your average munchkin!"

Galinda just looked at him stupidly at the 'taller than your avereage munchkin' confession.

"Do you know when she's coming-" Galinda began, but Elphaba came in the dorm with a brush. She dropped it the minute she saw Galinda.

"YOU THINK THIS IS WHAT MY PARENTS SAW BEFORE THEY LEFT?" Galinda yelled at her.

"Not intentionally..." Was Elphaba's thought, but said,

"Er, no."

"I CAN'T SEE THEM WITH MY HAIR LIKE A REPTILE HOUSE!"

"Galinda, I can explain everything."

"What, you wanted to see my parents freak out so that they'll take me out of Shiz so you can have the dorm all to yourself? I THINK NOT!"

"No I didn't!"

"Yes you did!"

"No I didn't!"

"Yes you did!"

"No I didn't! It was by accident!"

"More like on purpose!"

"I swear to The Wizard I did it by accident! I was practicing spells and one spell was casted upon your brush! Sue me!"

Elphaba picked up the brush and threw it at Galinda. She shouted,

"HERE'S A REPLACEMENT FOR YOU!"

And walked angrily out of the dorm.

"FINE THEN!" Galinda shouted back, throwing the brush out of the dorm (And knocking Fiyero out cold with it). "AND KEEP YOUR BRUSH!"

She kicked Boq out of the dorm and slammed the door.

"Women can be so confusing, can't they, Fiyero?" Boq told Fiyero.

All Fiyero did was groan.


Note: So now you know the spell! How this? Here's how:

Tresse- Tresse is another word for ponytail or hair.

Ka- Don't think it's Kansas because it's not. I was writing the spell and I had to conjoin the words together. So no, Dorothy's not showing up in the fic, thank goodness. Besides, this is set in SHIZ, not afterwards; Dorothy doesn't know a thing about Oz yet.

Reple- Reple (Pronounced rep-lay) sounds like reptile (To me...Maybe not to others, but to me it does). Also, if letters rearranged, it can spell 'Repel', as in disgust. And it would look pretty disgusting to have reptiles for hair, wouldn't it?

So now everyone knows what the spell was, and hopefully all confusion was ridden off!
