Chapter 3! Sorry it took so long to update!
"That doesn't make any sense! Amnesia only affects a person's brain!" Nessa said. Galinda just stared at her roommate in shock. "That's it. This is beyond us. Take her to the infirmary."
"Me?" Galinda said, finding her voice. "Why me?"
"Because you caused this problem, now you have to fix it!" Nessa said. Galinda pouted, but the brunette would not be swayed.
"Fine." Galinda said huffily. "Come on, Elphaba." The two girls left the room and Galinda led Elphaba to the infirmary.
"How can that girl be my sister? She's not green." Elphaba asked.
"You're the only one who is green." Galinda replied bitterly.
"Oh." Galinda spun around, causing Elphaba to stop.
"How did you do it?"
"Do what?"
"Cure your water allergy?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Galinda threw her arms up in frustration and continued walking. "Besides, no one is allergic to water. That's strange."
"Green skin is strange too."
"That's true." The girls were silent for a few more minutes. "How long have we been going out?" Elphaba finally asked. Galinda froze.
"W- what did you say?!"
"You said I was your girlfriend. How long has that been going on?" Galinda mentally slapped herself. She had completely forgotten about that.
"Well, uh… it's new, so we don't talk about that. So be quiet and don't tell anyone!" she said quickly.
"Oh. Okay." The two girls finally reached the infirmary and Galinda sat Elphaba down in a chair.
"Just wait here." she said before going up to the window. The woman sitting there opened the window.
"What do you need?"
"Well, my roommate seems to have bumped her head and… gotten amnesia." Galinda said. The woman looked behind the blonde.
"Where's your friend?"
"Roommate. And she's the green one right-" Galinda gave a small shriek. Elphaba was gone. She turned back nervously. The woman was giving her an annoyed look. "Would you excuse me for just a few minutes while I find my roommate?" Galinda ran from the room and looked down the halls. No sign of the green girl. Galinda started down the halls, cursing under her breath.
"What are you doing? Why aren't you in the infirmary?" Galinda cursed her luck and turned around to face Nessa. The brunette was sitting with her arms crossed.
"Okay, I was at the infirmary and I told Elphaba to sit in the chair and I turned to get her help and when I turned back… she was gone."
"You lost her?!"
"No! I just don't know where she is!"
"You lost her. How could you?"
"Very easily, it seems. Look, I'm sorry, but she just wandered off."
"You should have been watching her!"
"I can't do everything at one time!" Nessa sighed and shook her head.
"We'll have to split up and look for her. Hopefully we find her before she gets into any trouble."
---------------------------------------------
Elphaba wandered around Shiz, not really sure where she was going. Outside, the storm raged and students were gathered in front of fireplaces, warming up. She passed through several of these rooms and each time, students would look at her, then whisper to each other. Elphaba was a little unsettled by this and wanted to get back to Galinda, but couldn't remember where the blonde was.
"Miss Elphaba?" she heard a voice say. She stopped and saw a munchkin boy approaching her. "What are you doing?"
"I'm… not quite sure." she replied.
"Are… are you alone?"
"Well, I was with Galinda, but I can't seem to remember where she is… I'm sorry, who are you again?" The boy laughed.
"Oh, you almost had me there for a second."
"What do you mean?"
"Pretending as though you don't know me."
"Oh, I'm not pretending."
"You… you really don't know who I am?" The boy looked upset and Elphaba felt bad.
"Don't take it personally. I forgot that I had a sister. Hmm… what was her name again?"
"Nessarose?"
"That's it! Thank you, Master…"
"Boq."
"Boq. What a nice name. Short. I like it. Could you tell me how to get to the infirmary, Boq?" Boq sighed.
"Follow me."
-----------------------------------------
"Did you find her?" Nessa asked. Galinda shook her head. "We've searched everywhere. Where could she be?"
"Maybe she wandered back to the infirmary." Galinda guessed.
"As ridiculous as that sounds, we could check." The two girls made their way back to the infirmary.
"Oh, no." Galinda groaned.
"What? What is it?" Galinda pointed and Nessa looked. There was Elphaba, sitting in the exact chair Galinda had left her in. Elphaba saw the two and waved.
"She was here the whole time." Nessa said. Galinda nodded. The two sighed.
"This is really getting annoying. I'm starting to like the old Elphaba better." Galinda said. Nessa just nodded in agreement before heading into the room. Galinda collapsed in the chair next to Elphaba and sighed with the brunette.
"You guys look tired. Whatever you were chasing must have won."
End of chapter 3! What a fun chase that was! Hope you all enjoyed it and please, please review! Thanks!
