Chapter 4

Lin's POV

"Come on Lin you can do this." Luce encouraged me as I tried a hand at my light magic spells. They were harder than they looked, and it really took the energy out of me. Making up your own spells was never easy. But I had to get this. I had to learn this or be short of chances when I faced Zandra.

The small ball of light forming in my hands grew a little brighter as more sweat ran down my face. Come on, come on just a little bit more.

"HEADS UP LIN!" I turned my head to see a piece of a battle dummy smack me right in the side of the head, the light magic vanished and I fell to the ground with a loud squeak. Daken and Luce rushed beside me.

"You okay honey?" Daken asked as he touched my face where my temple was. I nodded with a laugh. "Yes, I am fine love." I turned to look at the dark haired girl walking as quickly as her weak body would let her.

"LIN! Im so sorry I didn't know it would shoot that fair." Arya said, the guilt already in her voice. I shook my head.

"Hey Cuz, its okay. It was an accident." I said laughing as Daken helped me up. I sighed as I looked at Arya, her body still tired looking and weak. She had some scars on her arms. And it made me feel horrible.

"Arya, darling. Its time for your healing session. And I thought I told you to be more careful!" Aunt Riley said as she picked up the piece and made it disappear. Arya only smiled.

"Sorry Mom, I couldn't help it." Arya said putting her sword in its sheath.

"My ladies, my I escort you to the healing room?" Daniel said politely with a bow. Arya smiled nervously and Aunt Riley nodded.

"Thank you, that's very kind of you Daniel." Aunt Riley said as she followed Daniel away. But I could see the mixed emotions running through Arya's eyes.

Arya you okay?

Yes Lin, Im fine. Don't worry. She said before following her mom and Daniel away. I sighed, this had been going on ever since she had woken up. And it worried me.

Daken pulled me closer to him, wrapping his arm gently around me. "Hey, she said don't worry. Follow orders your loveliness." He whispered with a soft laugh and I blushed heavily. Whenever he called me that, I couldn't help but blush. He made me feel so different than anyone else could ever make me feel. Like I was worth something and nothing could make him change his mind.

Suddenly Luce gasped, her hands shaking and her eyes wide with worry.

"Luce what's wrong?" I asked feeling panic come over me. Whenever Luce did this it meant she was having a vision. That was her gift that we had soon discovered after Kerry was took. Lucy's magic allowed her to have visions of what was to come within the day. Good or bad we never knew. But when her eyes filled with worry like that I knew the vision was bad, and to my dismay I was right. Luce grabbed my hand and squeezed it tight.

"Go to your mother. Now! Before its too late!"

Glinda's Room.

Glinda the Good picked up some of her clothes in her and Norbert's room in the underground, feeling much calmer than she had in the past few days. Maybe it was just the side effect from what happened at the Tony's, or was it just her nerves after everything that has happened. She wasn't sure.

Her smile returned to her face once she saw a pink rose on the bed. No doubt left from her love. She held it close smiling to herself, unaware of what dark shadow was sneaking under her door.

The shadow began to gain shape and the figure grinned evilly at how Glinda seemed so happy and soon that would end. The figure stepped closer to her when Glinda sensed someone near her.

As she turned around she gasped only to have the fiure shoot a whip like of dark magic and allow it to wrap tightly around Glinda's neck and pinning her against the wall and it choked her.

Glinda's eyes widened in fear as the figure laughed. "What's the matter Aunt Glinda, surprised to see your god niece Talley here to get rid of what's standing in her way." Glinda couldn't believe it and she didn't believe that it was Talley who was beginning to choke her. She gasped for air trying to break free.

"Y-Your..N-No..t…" She coughed as the magic tightened around her neck. Talley shook her head.

"Ah now we don't want anyone to hear you now do we Auntie." Glinda could feel her body growing weak, her lungs begging for air. She looked at the Talley standing before her, bright red eyes, dark hair, and pale skin. This wasn't the Talley they knew, she knew it. She could feel the dark magic radiating off of her. Glinda gasped trying to gain her breathe but it was no use. She found her eyes closing.

"Goodnight Witch of the North…forever."

"NO MOM!" Lin burst through the door with Luce, Daken, Elphaba and Norbert behind her. She quickly shot a bolt of air at the Talley she did not recognize and somehow the dark magic released Glinda, causing her to fall to her knees, gasping for breathe.

"Glin!, Love are you okay?" Norbert asked as he bent down beside his wife. Glinda nodded as she gained her breathe. Lin looked from her mother to the shadow that she saw as Talley. It growled, its red eyes looking dead at Lin and Daken. Her face turning into a twisted smile.

"If I cant get the witch of the north out of the way I might as well get you two for my master." Daken pulled Lin close to him, he covered her like a shield. Talley raised her hand and shot dark magic at them. Lin raised her hand trying to block it with her elements but it was no good. The magic busted through the elements and crashed right into Daken and Lin. Daken yelled in pain and Lin looked at him worried.

"DAKEN!" the magic swirled around them and Lin felt her chest tighten in pain. She backed away from Daken feeling it worsen. Talley smirked.

"I'm still not finished with you. Not even close." With that she vanished leaving All of them shocked.

What had just happened?
