. . . ."She looked like a dead zombie honestly she's so ugly I hate sharing a room with the monster" Galinda said smugly, then she noticed her friends weren't looking at her but someone behind her she turned her head, eyes widening and her mouth open. It was Elphaba.

"Elphie.." Galinda said horrified her roommate said, Shen-Shen and Pfannee laughed. Elphaba could only glare, something hurt inside, was it her pride or her heart.

"Elphie say something" Galinda said hopping the green girl would forgive her, Elphaba had to say something but what came out from her mouth was one of her sarcastic comments which always led to fights "You know you can take the blonde away from her bitchy whore friends but you can't take the bitchiness out of the blonde" she said smugly, Galinda was horrified, "Why don't you go and live under the rock you first came frog" Shen-Shen said, Galinda just stayed still, keeping her eyes on Elphaba's sad eyes "So, you want me to crawl under a rock and die eh?" she said challenging the other students, Galinda was speechless.

Nessa and Boq threw Sympathetic looks to Elphaba, the green girl looked at everyone with her angered eyes "Fine" she said her eyes glowing in rage, she turned and walked out of the dinning room.

Galinda kept opening her mouth then closing it, what did she do, was that her fault? Galinda thought, just then she felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to meet eyes with an angry Nessa she looked to Boq who was standing right next Nessa, she couldn't work out his expression normally he was ecstatic to see her but he looked blank, "oh I bet you love me talking to you Boq, I know you have a little wittle crush on me" she said giving the best fake smile and laughing awkwardly.

Nessa was becoming more angry at the second even Boq was displeased with her, the pair shook their heads at Galinda and walked past her or wheeled and walked.

Now Galinda did feel bad.

Elphaba was not in lessons and no one had seen her or even cared if she was here or not except for Nessa and Boq, she was getting more anxious at the second were did the green girl go did something happen to her?

Night finally arrived and the time was closing into curfew and still no Elphaba, this was galinda's fault but she couldn't tell anyone that Elphaba did not come back because they would blame her especially Boq and Nessa.

Elphaba sat outside on the dry grass looking out into the sky, she preferred being alone but still the aching feeling in her was still intact, she looked at her watch it was just past curfew, she would get in trouble going back now or tomorrow so she decided to stay out here because it would just be awkward sharing a room with Galinda tonight.

She had been staying out for some hours and it was beginning to get chilly suddenly she heard a rustling in the forest she tilted her head to see if she could see the being or wind, she started feeling uncomfortable and turned to Crage hall, she turned again to see if there was someone there, then she saw a tall shadow coming closer to her, the only thing she could do was run, she finally arrived to the door of Crage hall and she started to thumble through her bag to find the key, she could tell by the clouds it was going to rain any minuet, when she looked she could feel a cold breath on her neck she turned round but before she could make out the figure, the figure slammed her to the wall and everything went blank.

She was on her own outside, the rain started to fall, seeping into her skin, the pain like daggers burning her skin, she was unconscious.

A tall stranger walked up to Elphaba and picked her up, he moved the hair from her face away, to reveal the green face. She opened her eyes slowly to see blue diamonds and that was the last thing she saw that night.

She woke up to feel soft silk on her skin but when she properly opened her eyes the pain on her burnt skin was increasing, and including the incident last night. A young man round her age with blue diamonds and tanned skin sat in the chair asleep, when she looked over to his sleeping figure her body jolted and she started shaking, was this the man who attacked her?

She whimpered quietly and resulted in the young man opening his eyes, "are you ok" he said concerned to the shaking green women. She looked under to covers to check she was still fully clothed but she only had her underwear on, she quickly grabbed the blanket and ran to the door, Fiyero didn't understand what was running through her head.

"Hey calm down what's wrong" he said moving a hand to touch her shoulder, she quickly moved away, she glared "how dare you" she said coldly, he looked at her again then realized what she had thought what happened, "oh no" he said shaking his head "its not what you think, you had nasty burns so I tried to put cream on it but I never touched you in away that would dishonour a women".

She looked terrified "give me my clothes" she said shakily, he grabbed the pile and gave it to her he smiled trying to lighten the mood but she grabbed it and glared again, she stormed into the bathroom and changed, "may I say it was not a pleasure to meet…" she looked at him waiting for an answer, "oh Fiyero my name is Fiyero and yours?" "Well Fiyero I would of preferred if your introduction did not include beating me up, and its Elphaba" that was the last thing she said before slamming the door and storming to her dorm room.

Walking up to Crage Hall she noticed crowds of girls in groups crying, when she walked past they all glared at her, she turned to find Nessa and she was shaking her head in disgust "I can't believe you Elphaba, wait till father finds out, I know for sure he will disown you" then Nessa wheeled off muttering insults about her sister to Boq.

What the hell had happened, she walked the rest of her way to her dorm and unlocked it, there was Galinda crying her head in hands, Elphaba sighed "what's wrong" she said concernedly, Galinda looked up and immediately ran to her she hugged her "oh your back" she said happily, she stopped her hug and slapped the green witch "you are in a huge amount of trouble, first for well missing curfew and secondly …" while Galinda was scolding her Elphaba felt a tad dizzy, the room starting to spin. "EXCUSE ME!!!" the blonde shouted "ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME!!!" Elphaba looked back to the blonde "I need a lie down" the green witch said but Galinda wasn't having it until Elphaba was fully scolded for her actions "No you are going to listen to me greenie", while Galinda carried on, Elphaba felt a trickle of liquid down her neck she put a hand on the back of her hand and then looked at her hand, it was covered in blood.

"I SAID ARE YOU LISTENING!!!!" Galinda shouted, but Elphaba couldn't hear the blonde and now not able to see her, the blonde then looked concernedly at Elphaba and lifted the green girls chin up so she could see what was wrong, Elphaba let out a whimper and collapsed onto the floor.

"Elphie" she said softly, she kneeled next to her lifeless friend and moved her head then noticed a bleeding gash on the back of her head, Galinda was in tears, she had been nothing but mean to her green friend, if she survived she would make sure she would be a better friend to Elphaba.
