A/N: A second chapter by request of my awesome reviewers! Probably not as good as the first chapter, but seeing as this was originally meant to be a one shot, I'm just winging it from here. This chapter is crap if you ask me, but it's your opinion that matters.

"Look Elphie!" Glinda exclaimed as the pair passed another sign, "One more mile! We're almost saved!"

Elphaba shot her friend a look, "If you announce how many miles we have to walk one more time, I swear you won't make it to the city".

"Why wouldn't I make it to…" a look of realization crossed the blonde's face, "HEY!" she exclaimed, "Just because I'm focusing on my goal…"

"You should really be focusing on staying alive."

Glinda, who had given up on her heels 8 miles back, stubbed her bare foot on a rock and fell into the mud. Elphaba stifled a laugh. Although she now called Glinda her friend, it was still funny to see the resident beauty queen of Shiz in a puddle of mud.

"You planned this Elphaba!" Glinda yelled hostilely, "You invited me to come with you…so we could get kicked off the train and-and-and you made it rain! And you willed me into the mud!"

Elphaba burst out giggling—yes giggling—at the absurdity of Glinda's statement. Finally composing herself after a minute of so she asked, "Are you forgetting why we got kicked off the train?"

"How was I supposed to know the conductor was a woman? Elphie she had a beard!"

"It was just stubble and somehow I don't think she appreciated being called 'sir'", Elphaba said, then adding, "and you laughing when she said she was a woman".

"I thought she was joking", Glinda sniffed pulling herself out of the mud (Elphaba obviously wasn't going to offer any assistance), "and the fourth time I forgot!"

The two walked in cold silence until…

"HALF A MILE TO GO! DO YOU SEE THAT ELPHIE! HALF A MILE! THAT'S NOT EVEN A MILE!"

"Really? I could have sworn it meant more than a mile"

"Wow I thought you were the smart one", realization occurred again, "Elphaba stop doing that!"

"Doing what?" the green girl asked innocently.

"That!"

"I have no idea what you're talking about"

"You're doing it again!"

"Doing what?"

Glinda sighed in frustration, "I'm not even going to talk to you anymore Elphaba. You're making this trip even more unpleasant than it already is."

'Finally, some peace and quiet' Elphaba thought, rolling her eyes. Glinda had been complaining, making random comments and pointing at signs the whole trip.

The stormy silence set in again until Glinda spotted another sign. Seemingly forgetting the blisters in her feet she ran up to it. Sliding on the mud, it didn't look as if she had much control as to if she stopped or not before hitting the sign.

"Uh Glinda—"

CRASH!

Glinda was once again lying in the mud on her back.

"A fourth of a mile to go" she said, apparently unaffected by the loss of what was left of her dignity.

"I have half a mind to just leave you here", Elphaba said, passing her companion who was pulling herself out of the mud.

"You wouldn't".

"I would"

"No, you wouldn't".

"Yes, I would".

"Wanna bet?"

"Huh?"

Elphaba took off running down the road.

"Elphaba", Glinda called, "That's not fair! I have blisters all over my feet and-and-and…ELPHABA!"

"You should've dressed accordingly", Elphaba called back, already a considerable distance ahead.

"I didn't…I mean…I'm not…ELPHABA WAIT!"

A/N: Yeah, told you I was winging it. I didn't exactly know what to say. Probably one more chapter after this. Depends on what you guys think! Thanks for reviewing!
