Hey I apologize for the long wait in undate! I had totally forgotten about this story and where I wanted to go, but then I was talking to my sister's friend and she told me to add a chapter to my fourth story and on the list this was story number four so you have her to thank :P I remember now where I wanted this story to go while I was eating chocolate. Haha. I am going to try and update my stories in my winter break and I apologize I didn't get some up before Christmas like I previously had planned. The Holiday's kept me really busy, but I have basically nothing to do now, except for one project, which I am currently procrastinating xP So yeah if nothing gets in my way expect more chapters soon, if it doesn't happen I apologize in advance :D Anyways on to the story. Enjoy! As Always -Greengirl16

This chapter is dedicated to my sister's friend. I doubt she's going to read this, but if she is, she knows who she is :D

A/N: I apologize this chapter is kind of short...okay really short :|, but it's setting up the future plot :)


Fiyero sat at the train station, anticipating Glinda's arrival. He sat on a bench glancing around. Her train wasn't due for another 30 minutes so he got up to find a newspaper, hoping to find a somewhat interesting story. He glanced briefly at the front page story of the Ozmopolition Daily, but then stopped at the sight of a familiar green girl. It read: 'Oz's New Magic Grand Vizier.' His heart skipped a beat. She had gotten the job. That was wonderful wasn't it…, but he couldn't help his heart from sinking. Why wasn't he happy for her?

A woman's voice came over the loud speaker announcing Glinda's train's arrival. Fiyero jumped at the sound and pasted a fake smile on his face, hoping it would please Glinda as she unboarded the train. He saw the small blonde in the back of the crowd. He glanced around for another familiar face. He didn't see her…

Glinda slowly approached him, something was definitely wrong. He could sense it. "Welcome back," he said, hoping to raise her spirits.

She smiled slightly.

"So…where's Elphaba," he asked, praying it didn't sound suspicious.

A tear ran down Glinda's cheek, "She had work to do," she managed to say. Glinda broke out in tears. Fiyero wrapped her arms around her small frame and held her tight. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"I am so confused Fiyero."

Fiyero looked puzzled himself.

"Elphaba…she…she has changed."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know if I am allowed to tell you," her eyes wide with a fear, unknown to Fiyero.

"You can trust me, I promise," Fiyero assured her.

"Well as you know we went to meet the Wizard…well he isn't so wonderful. He has been tricking Ozians for years! He is also behind the Animal Bans and Elphaba joined him, even when he tricked her into making spies out of Monkeys to report any Animal subversion!"

"Wait what?"

"Elphaba joined the Wizard in helping hurt Animals?" This was not the same girl, he was sure of it. They couldn't possibly be talking about the girl he helped save a Lion cub with, there was no possible way!

"Yes! I don't know what has gotten into her, but she has been stripping the Animals of their speech for the past few days! I am scared Fiyero. I think she's ill."

Fiyero felt sick, but he didn't know what was happening. It felt like a dream or some kind of cruel alternate reality that he couldn't escape, "It's going to be alright. We'll figure out what's going on," Fiyero said, attempting to reassure Glinda and himself.

Glinda smiled weakly.


Little did they both know, a Mouse sat under their bench and had been eavesdropping on their entire conversation… So it was the Wizard behind all the terrible treatment the Animals had been receiving! The Mouse rushed off, with a new determination, to tell the village leaders in hope to save their race.


GASPP!!! Review? Please... :D
