Woah check out this crazy fast update. XD
"Fiyero, look out!" Yelled Elphaba as she started swimming for the shore.
"Huh-wa?"
"Fiyero, get out of the water! There's a shark!"
And with that, Fiyero started to frantically swim toward land, but to no avail, he was splashing around in a circle without actually getting anywhere.
"Sheesh, who taught him how to swim? A half dead camel?" Said Avaric as he shook his head in pity.
The shark, alerted by the splashing, started to circle around Fiyero.
Oh crap! I'm going to die!
"Don't eat me! I'm too pretty to die! Look at this face!" Screamed Fiyero.
The shark, in response, started to swim even closer to the panicking Winkie.
"C'mon man! Be cool now!" Stuttered Fiyero nervously.
"Fiyero! Dive down! Sharks rarely attack unless they're above their prey!" Screamed Elphaba.
Fiyero took a big gulp of air before diving below water; he went down five feet, then ten. He tried to relax as he looked up; the shark was still circling above, but wasn't advancing on him.
Maybe it'll go away? Thought Fiyero hopefully.
"Oscar…what are you planning? I don't like that look on your face…" Said Avaric warily.
The Wizard smirked and pressed another button.
Fiyero was suddenly aware of a sharp pain in his left leg, he was bleeding!
When did that happen?
The shark was instantly aggravated by the scent of blood, and immediately dived down to attack the Prince. Fiyero let out an under water scream before swimming as fast as he could toward the surface. As his head broke the surface he screamed again, the shark had got him!
Rows of jagged teeth pierced the Winkie's right leg, and he was being violently shaken by the great fish.
"Getting…dizzy…blood loss…leg going numb…" Mumbled Fiyero.
Elphaba Thropp readied her bow from the shore.
I can't miss. She thought to herself.
She had no idea how much a little pointed stick would do against the rough skin of the shark, but if maybe, just maybe, if she hit the eyes, Fiyero might have a chance.
She steadied her bow and took aim, holding her breath, she released the arrow.
The arrow struck the shark in the centre of its eye.
"Bulls eye!" Cried the Wizard.
"Shark's eye you mean." Corrected Avaric.
The Wizard smacked Avaric upside the head.
"Ow! What was that for?"
"For being a smartass!"
The shark reeled back as it released its grip on Fiyero, now mumbling incoherently about strawberries. As it shark swam away from the Winkie, Fiyero started to sink.
"Elphie! Save Fiyero!" Cried Galinda as she realized what was happening to the Prince.
Elphaba cursed colourfully as she leaped back into the water, she swam out to where the Prince was last seen, before taking a deep breath and diving underwater. The green girl's heart nearly stopped when she saw him lying on the lake floor, unconscious. Elphaba quickly grabbed Fiyero and started to swim toward the surface, after she towed him to the shore, she realized he wasn't breathing.
"Is he going to be ok, Elphie?" Whimpered Galinda.
"I- I don't know. Wait let me try something."
Elphaba started to push at the Winkie's chest with her hands, thrusting them up and down, and after doing this thirty times, she took a deep breath, pinched his nose, tilted his head up and tried forcing the air into his throat. She then resumed compressing his chest.
Galinda stared in confusion.
What's she doing?
At that moment she heard a loud engine accelerating towards them.
Avaric was speeding towards them in a maserati bird cage, with a content look on his face. When hopped out of the car, he went over and put a hand on Elphaba's shoulder.
"Elphaba? I'll take it from here. Don't worry." He said with a smile.
"What are you talking about?"
Avaric, with a slight grunt, picked up Fiyero and placed him in his car.
"Where are you taking him? He's not even breathing! He needs medical attention!" Exclaimed Elphaba.
"That's why I'm taking him with me, sweetheart." Said Avaric with a chuckle.
Galinda draped an arm around her friend.
"Don't worry, Elphie, he knows what he's doing."
Avaric gave them one last wave as he hit the gas pedal and sped off.
Galinda sighed as azure eyes met chocolate ones.
"Three down…" She mumbled.
"Two to go." Finished the Green one.
