My fellow Ozians, it is time to announce the people who will be characters in the story! The people will be: Doglover645 (Jade), Woodland 59 (Madison), Ella Thropp (Ella), Elphie is popular (Star) and Fae'sFlower (Nia)! Congratulotions to all who are going to be characters and I am very sorry to anyone who wanted to be a character and didn't get a spot! Originally, there were only going to be three of you and I bumped it up to five so that more people could be characters. I promise that it was nothing against you. Next time I have a story where I need characters, I will try to have different people so that everyone gets a turn. Also, just to clear any confusifacation, my character is Hailey, hence "HaileytheOzian" :)
A week had passed since the day that Elphaba and Fiyero went to get clothing and found out that the inn keeper is a wicked fan. Most things had gone very smoothly since then for the pair. Unfortunately, things weren't going too smoothly for everyone. Over on the other side of town, Hailey was hosting an end of the summer party with her friends Nia, Star, Ella, Madison, and Jade.
"I can't believe that it is already the last day of summer vacation!" said Hailey. "It went by so fast!"
"At least we will see each other every day now, going back to school." Said Ella.
"Isn't there going to be a new English teacher this year? That will be interesting!" said Nia.
Over at the inn, Elphaba was pacing franticly, trying to calm herself down. "What if I'm not good at teaching? What if I am too nice, or too strict?"
Fiyero was also trying to make an effort to calm his girlfriend down. "Fae, don't worry, you will be great! Just remember what Dr. Dillamond did and follow in his footsteps."
"Fiyero, it's not that simple, I actually, have to teach these kids! And not just that, but I also have to keep the fact that I am 'the wicked witch of the west' hidden!"
"No one will ever recognize you with the tan makeup you put on every morning. It really is convincing." said Fiyero.
Elphaba and Fiyero went to bed early that night to make sure they got a good night's rest before Elphaba's big day. The girls however, pulled an all-nighter at Hailey's house. "What if one of our teachers looks like a wicked character? Wouldn't that be Ozsome!" asked Star.
"That would be!" said Jade. Remember last year when the math teacher broke her leg and was in a wheelchair for a month and we called her Nessa the whole time?"
Madison sighed "Yes I remember because I actually did call her Nessa by accident once, and she looked at me like I had five heads!" the rest of the girls started laughing and snickering remembering that day. "Hey! It wasn't funny to me!"
"It was funny to the rest of us!" said Jade.
"I read the book over the summer" said Nia.
The rest of the girls looked at her in surprise. "It was… different" Said Nia.
"I will never read the book! Said Hailey. "Doesn't Elphaba actually melt?"
"Yes" Nia replied.
"I couldn't handle that." Hailey looked sad for a minute, and so did the rest of the fans. All of Hailey's friends were Broadway fans. They were the only ones in the school. They were kind of a band of misfits too, since everybody else was too busy fangirling over one direction and instagram.
The next morning came and all the girls had fallen asleep without really meaning too. Hailey's mom went up the stairs to wake everybody up. "Ok girls, time to get up!" she said.
"Do we have to? It's daytime!" Star complained.
"Was that a Fiyero reference?" asked Ella.
"It sure was! Star replied."
"Dancing through life, skimming the surface!" Madison sang. Ella joined, then Jade and Hailey. Soon everyone was singing dancing through life.
Hailey's mom, who was still standing in the doorway just sighed and said "Start getting ready, you don't want to miss the bus on the first day of school!"
Back at the inn, Elphaba had just woken up and started getting ready. She painted herself tan, and put on a simple navy blue frock and a matching jacket. Then it was time for the difficult task of waking up Fiyero. "Hey! Fiyero! Wake up!" she whisper-shouted.
He didn't move, so she used a spell to levitate him right out of the bed and into the air. "What huh?" Fiyero didn't know what was going on until he saw Elphaba and green magic coming out of her hand and forming a cloud around him. Then he noticed that he was floating in mid-air. "Fae! Not again! Put me down!" he said. Elphaba had learned the best way to wake him up was exactly what she had just done.
"You have to get ready for work, Mr. Dunkin-doughnuts man!"
Fiyero sighed "Oh, fine, just put me down please." She smiled and put him down. Elphaba found the whole thing adorable when she had to levitate Fiyero to wake him up. Just as Elphaba was about to leave the room, he said "Hey, good luck on your new job!"
Elphaba just smiled for a second and left. Now came the real fun. She used an x-ray spell to see through the door and see if Fiyero was getting up, or going back to sleep. She saw the latter of the two going on.
She walked back in "Fiyero! What do you think you are doing!? I'm not leaving until you get up, get dressed and leave the inn!" and that was exactly what she did. Fiyero hurried because he didn't want Elphaba to be late because of him.
Finally, half an hour later, Fiyero had left and so had Elphaba. She gave Fiyero his broom and took hers and soon, they were flying in opposite directions. Fiyero to dunkin-doughnuts and Elphaba to Rockport Middle School.
Elphaba already knew her way around the school, thanks to her new friend Whitney who had showed her around and made sure she knew where important things were. Elphaba was glad that it was a small school. She went right to the office to check in. "Hello, Principal Conrad." She said to her new boss.
"Oh, hi, you must be Emily Taber, the new English teacher. Nice to meet you, here is your schedule." He handed Elphaba a piece of paper. "And here are your attendance lists." He handed her many pieces of paper. "Good luck! You better get to your classroom for homeroom."
"Oh. Right!" said Elphaba. And she hurried to her homeroom.
Unfortunately for the fangirls, they were not all in the same homeroom. Only Hailey, Nia, Madison, and Jade were in Ms. Taber's (Aka Elphaba's) Homeroom. Ella and star were in Ms. Swanberg's (Aka Whitney's) homeroom.
"Well," said Ella "at least we are all in the same English class!"
"We don't all have the same classes for the rest of the day." Said Star.
"Oh well, we'll make the best of it!" said Jade.
When Hailey, Nia, Madison and Jade went to homeroom, they found out that their teacher looked a lot like Elphaba. "Hey, she looks just like Elphaba!" said Madison.
"Oh wow, she totally does" said Hailey.
"And her last name starts with a T, much like Thropp!" Nia pointed out.
"OOH! I think I'll try defying gravity!" Jade started singing. Elphaba looked over at them with a confusified look on her face. They seemed to be sharing a secret.
"Jade! Stop singing! What if Ms. Taber really IS Elphaba and she hears us singing! She is looking at us!"
"Oh, sorry." Said Jade.
Elphaba started to get worried, those girls seemed to know something and she was going to get to the bottom of it.
Back in Oz, someone was knocking on Glinda's door. "Lady Glinda! I have some urgent news!"
"Come in then." Glinda said calmly.
George, one of Glinda's advisors came in "I am sorry to interrupt you, your goodness, but one of the prisoners has escaped!"
Glinda jumped up from her desk. "Who!?"
"It's Donna Morrible."
I have yet again left you all with a cliffy! I just want to tell you all that I really have all of oz at my school, one of my teachers last year looks just like Madame Morrible and she was really mean! I have Elphaba this year, and last week, my Social studies teacher broke her leg and is now in a wheelchair! She had blonde hair and she doesn't really look like Nessa, but she is young like Nessa! Also, I had a teacher named Mr. Fiero last year. He didn't look anything Like Fiyero and it wasn't spelled correctly, as you can tell, but still! I promise I am not making up any of that! This whole story was inspired by all the teachers in my school. Bye!
