Thanks for those who have started following this story. Please Review to let me know what you think. Also I don't own anything.
The bubble floated closer growing in size, what first appeared to be translucent was actually pink in color. Hook looked astonished, but Regina just stared on. The Wizard of Oz had always been one of Henry's favorite movies and although Regina thought it was a bit over the top, she did not mind it. After all it was not a story of her land; it did not remind her constantly that she was still portrayed as the Evil Queen, although she did always wonder about the Wicked Witch of the West.
The bubbled popped and Glinda elegantly floated the remaining six inches or so the ground. She was wearing a dress, which could be best described as a ball gown the same color as the bubble she floated in on. It had a skirt that poofed out so that the dress was as wide as Glinda was tall. It shimmered due to the jewels incrusted in it. And in her hand she carried a scepter which like her dress was incrusted in jewels.
"That's a bit over the top, don't you think?" Hook whispered in Regina's ear as the woman approached.
"Be quiet Hook." Regina responded back, through a sniff jaw.
"Does it smell like cotton candy?" Hook asked again.
"I said be quiet." Regina answered back.
"Why…visitors" Glinda said in a sing-songy voice that made Regina cringe a little.
"Um…yes" Hook replied, still confused about who the woman was in front of him.
"I sensed the arrival and I just had to say hello." Glinda said with a smile, her voice so high it almost squeaked.
"Hello" Hook said in his normal flirtatious way.
"Welcome to Oz I am…"
"Glinda" Regina responded with a straight tone. She couldn't tell if Hook was attracted to this woman, confused or just being his normal self but whatever was happening she needed to shut it down.
"You know me?" Glinda asked turning to Regina.
"Your reputation precedes you." Regina replied with her masking smile.
"All good I hope?" Glinda asked with a smile.
Regina narrowed her eyes slightly, was this woman really real? "Oh you have nothing to worry about, they say you are as good as they come."
"Oh stop." Glinda responded, waving her hand slightly. "I hope it doesn't sound vain but how have you heard of me. Are you here following the man who arrived not long ago. He seemed like such a gentleman. Oz has been down lately but he says he has big plans for Oz."
"Is that true?" Regina asked.
"He says he's a Wizard" Glinda replied in more of a whisper, raising her eyebrow slightly.
"And what do you need with a Wizard, this place is surging with magic I can feel it." Regina asked.
"It is, and that is always what makes Oz so great. But we haven't had anyone to control it in such a long time. It is like there is food right in front of us but we are starving. He says he can control it, bring Oz back to the greatest that it once was."
"I see, what about you. I mean, you flew in here on a bubble."
"Yes but I can only use the magic in certain ways, due to my vows."
"Your vows right…" Regina answered.
"But you, you said that you could feel the magic, are you a Wizard too then."
"Of course my dear."
"And you are with the man then, you are here to help him?"
"Yes we are." Hook said, stepping closer to stand next to Regina. "So if you could just tell us where he headed."
"Well to the Emerald City of course, it is the logical place to go."
"And how do we get the Emerald City?" Hook asked. Regina gave in a bit of a glare. She knew the answer already of course but for some reason she didn't want to hear the words spoken out loud.
"Why you follow the yellow brick road of course."
Regina closed her eyes and shook her head.
"Is something wrong?" Glinda asked.
"No of course not, I'm just anxious to get going."
"You can't go yet, we haven't given you a proper send off. I'm sure the munchkins would like to thank you for the great work that you are doing. And I don't even know your name."
"No sendoff is necessary. And I'm Regina and this is…Killian. And as you are aware we have important work to get to. So thank you for the welcome and the enlightening conversation but I think we will be going."
"If you insist."
"Believe me I do." Regina replied.
"Okay then. Safe travels. And remember all you have do is…" Glinda left off as if it were a quiz. Hook looked at Regina unsure if she was going to answer.
"Follow the Yellow Brick Road." Regina finished.
Next time on Defenders of Magic: Hook and Regina have a heart to heart.
