Hey people! Sorry about the deranged Elphaba last chapter. I just felt that the Lion Cub scene needed a crazy person. Anyway...Chapter 8!
*Elphaba is in the train station. Morrible gave her the invitation from the Wizard, and she is currently waiting for her friends to see her off*
Elphaba: *is slightly irritated* Geeze. Where is everybody? I mean, If I knew that they were gonna make me late I just wouldn't have told them! *checks her watch*
*Galinda, Boq, Nessa and Fiyero run onstage*
Galinda: *trying to catch her breath* Sorry Elphie! *pant* Nessa *pant* just HAD to go and make us LATE! *glares at Nessa*
Nessa: WELL, I WASN'T GOING TO LEAVE THE DORM WITHOUT MAKEUP!
Fiyero: *whispers to Boq* I think Galinda's at as much fault here as Nessa is.
Galinda: *smacks Fiyero* I HEARD THAT!
Elphaba: *looks at her watch again* Well, it was really nice to see all you guys...but you see; I'm really gonna be late, and...
Galinda: BUT WE GOT YOU PRESENTS! *pulls out a giant box from her tiny purse* This one's from me! *smiles & hands it to Elphaba*
Elphaba: Oh sweet Lurline. *opens the box and pulls out a bright pink witch hat* Gee, Galinda...um, you really didn't have to get me anything. *Galinda looks disappointed* But...ah, it's...um...really REALLY pink.
Galinda: *looks happy* You really think so?! Oh, I just knew you'd love it! *pulls another box out of her tiny purse* This one's from Nessa!
Elphaba: *takes it and opens it* It's empty.
Nessa: *shrugs* I didn't know what to get you. And Father wouldn't raise my allowance! *pouts* But it's the thought that counts, right?
Elphaba: *looks skeptical* Yeah, sure Nessa. *pats her on the head* But that usually only applies when you actually get the person something.
Galinda: *pulls yet another box out of her purse* And this one's from Fiyero!
Elphaba: *opens it very slowly*
Fiyero: Oh, don't look so scared! IT'S NOT GONNA BLOW UP!
Elphaba: Are you positive?
Fiyero: YES!
Elphaba: *finishes opening the present* What in Oz?! *pulls a banana out of the box*
Fiyero: *looks very proud of himself* You're welcome!
Elphaba: *stares at the banana* WHY?
Fiyero: *shrugs* I figured you'd get hungry on the train ride.
Elphaba: *is slightly confused* Oookaay...*turns to Galinda* Anything ELSE?
Galinda: *pulls another box out of her purse and hands it to Elphaba*
Elphaba: *stares at the preset* SERIOUSLY! HOW DO YOU FIT FOUR BOXES IN THAT TINY LITTLE PURSE?!
Galinda: I DON'T KNOW JUST OPEN THE PRESENT!
Elphaba: *opens the present, which is a green Shiz t-shirt* OKAY! WHO'S THE WISE GUY?! GREEN?! SERIOUSLY?! *looks slightly murderous*
Boq: *hides behind Nessa*
Elphaba: YOU PEOPLE REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF GIFTS, DO YOU?! *looks at her watch* OH GREAT, NOW I'M LATE! THANKS A LOT!
Galinda: YOU'RE WELCOME!
Elphaba: *looks disappointed* Now how am I gonna get to the Emerald City?
Galinda: Never fear, GALINDA is here!
*Galinda pulls a train out of her purse*
Galinda: TA DA!
Elphaba: *looks surprised* HOW?! JUST HOW?!
Galinda: *smiles* I'm MAGICAL!
Elphaba: Sure...okay...*looks at the train* Is that safe?
Galinda: Of COURSE IT IS, Elphie! Why wouldn't it be?
Elphaba: Alrighty, then... *boards the train* Bye everybody! *waves*
Everybody: BYE!
*train pulls away from the station and disappears offstage*
Galinda: WAIT! I WANNA GO WITH YOU! *is freaking out*
Fiyero: Okay, Okay! Galinda, CALM DOWN!
Galinda: *slaps Fiyero* I WILL NOT CALM DOWN! *runs after the train* WAIT FOR ME ELPHIE! *disappears offstage*
Fiyero: *turns to Boq* Do ya think she'll catch the train?
Boq: I honestly don't know.
Now Elphaba (and possibly Galinda) are off to see the Wizard! How was this chapter? Good? Bad? Please review & let me know! :D
