Chapter 7- Tragic
I went to Delilah and Destiny and Destiny immediately sprayed water in my face. I coughed and sputtered and she giggled a little.
"Sorry Sabrina" Destiny said. I attempted to shrug but currently my hair was being scrubbed. As my wet hair was finally back to it's blonde color I looked to the sink, seeing the last of black going down the drain. I grinned at my normal hair and dried it quickly. It wasn't curly but hang straight. I really didn't mind. I walked out of the school and came to see Daphne and Red in the back of the Maserati. And Fern hanging over into the car.
"Get off my car" I said coldly. She looked up at me and raised and eyebrow and then she continued her conversation that she was having with Puck. But I guess it was a one sided conversation because he looked bored.
"So, can I see your wings?" Fern asked. I froze. She knew, about Everafters. Puck nervously revved the engine and his eyes darted to the trunk.
"No, not right now. Say, you know about, us?" Puck asked, his eyes darting to Red, Daphne and me. Fern nodded.
"I do know about you, Blood King of Faerie. Do you want to know who I am?" asked Fern. Daphne leaned over from the back seat.
"Do you want to know who we are?" asked Daphne. Fern snorted unattractively. I smirked. She was about to get it.
"You're the Grimms. You have no powers. I know who you are. I am Clara from The Nutcracker" Fern snapped. And I saw it. She really was from The Nutcracker. The poise, the ballet positions she really was it.
"Oh trust me, they aren't humans or they would've left" Puck laughed. I laughed with him and popped out my black wings. There were silver swirls all over it and Daphne wiped off her concealer. She's lucky nobody had noticed it when she was getting her makeup put on. Her Gaelic tattoos swirled on her head and then it penetrated the rest of the concealer along her arms, waist and legs.
"We aren't human anymore and you don't want to know our power" Daphne whispered. Her tattoos blazed black and Fern backed away. I am so proud of her. Red was looking out of the window clearly bored.
"I suggest you move unless you want to be run through with Excalibur" I threatened. Fern gave me a scathing sneer but walked away nonetheless. I folded my wings back into my body and walked into the car. I dug in my bag for concealer and through it to Daphne who reapplied.
"Thanks, that was fun wasn't it?" I asked. Puck rolled his eyes and stuck my tongue out at him. He was usually the one who was being immature. Maybe when I became a fairy we traded maturity, which wasn't the funnest idea. I blasted the radio and we drove home in silence accept for Lady Gaga's voice.
"I really hate Fern. I want to just kill her," I said. I knew I could with a few words. But I shouldn't use my powers. I still had the tiniest addiction though I was a creature of magic now.
"We all hate her but aren't you happy that I signed you up. Your together with Puck…oops" Daphne said. I snarled angrily at her and she jumped out the car and ran towards the house.
"I'm gonna kill her!" I snapped. How dare she watch our private moment? She jumped into the house and reappeared in the doorway wearing a long coat with more than 30 pockets. She ripped out a wand and she rubbed off the concealer. Damn that witch!
"Gimme some water!" she screamed. A blast of water hit my stomach and I flew backwards. I'd just gone through a bad day with me having to hear 'No One Mourns The Wicked'. I through my hands out at her and knew what I was going to do would probably only knock her to the ground but that was the goal.
"Lapsus" I snapped. She fell to the ground. She groaned and got back up, scowling. I grinned at her.
"No fair! You're a fairy with a Latin Jurisdiction. Nobody has had that in 60 years. You truly are wicked" she snapped. I smiled angrily. I knew I was wicked and was completely proud. You see I'm a special fairy. My wings proved it.
"Thanks anyway Daphne. Go practice your lines or something" I snapped. She rolled her eyes. I turned to Puck.
"So…what do you want to do?" asked Puck. I smiled and pulled him to his room. We sat on his trampoline looking into the sky. I leaned on one arm and turned to him. He looked at me, his eyes crystalline blue.
"Do you really think I'm wicked?" I asked. I knew I was. I always knew that I was wicked from the day that I arrived in this town. I've killed several people in my short life.
"Wickedly beautiful if you mean. You're a Latin Jurisdiction and you're a much stronger fairy than I. Of course you're wicked. But we all are" Puck said. Damn, that was deep.
"How so?" I asked. I wanted to see how long this was going to go on. I mean him being smart.
"Well, we are all human. The greater power made us so. We aren't meant to perfect. We're all wicked in our own ways. Your just wickedly beautiful and you use your strength to kill those who try to hurt those you love" Puck explained. I smiled and kissed him.
"You are very smart Puck. Honestly I did not know you had it in you" I laughed.

We were in the auditorium again and today there were no songs. We were only practicing lines. My hair had been rinsed again and my skin green. Daphne was in a wheelchair and she was pale and had curled hair. The kids on stage gasped.
"What?! What are you looking at? Oh, do I have something in my teeth? Okay, let's get this over with. No, I'm not seasick, yes, I've always been green, and no, I didn't chew grass as a child" I snapped. Drake looked at me in surprise.
"Elphaba!" Drake shouted. I looked down in surprise at Daphne who was looking around in wonder.
"Oh, this is my younger sister, Nessarose. As you can see, she is a perfectly normal color" I remarked. Drake glared at me.
"Elphaba, stop making a spectacle of yourself! I'm only sending you here for one reason" Drake all but shouted at me. I looked at him and sighed while rolling my eyes. See acting is so easy.
"Yes, I know, to look after Nessarose" I sighed. Drake held out a box to Daphne. She took it. And smiled.
"My precious little girl: a parting gift" Drake clarified. Daphne nodded.
"Now father…" Daphne said. She pulled out a pair of silver shoes.
"Jeweled shoes!" shouted Daphne. Drake nodded.
"As befits the future governor of Munchkinland. Elphaba, take care of your sister. And try not to talk so much!" Drake snapped. He kissed Daphne on the cheek and then got off stage. He gave me a thumbs up but I could not acknowledge him. I was still acting.
"Elphaba…" Daphne started softly. I had to cut her off.
"Well what could he have gotten me? I clash with everything!" I said, sarcastically. Then Belinda, Madame Morrible entered.
"Welcome, new students! I am Madame Morrible, headmistress here at Shiz University. And whether you're here to study logic, literature, or lignifications, I know I speak for my fellow faculty members When I say we have nothing but the highest hopes for some of you. You! You must be Miss Nessarose, the governor's daughter. What a tragically beautiful face you have! And you must be" trailed off Belinda. I snorted.
"I'm the other daughter, Elphaba. I'm beautifully tragic" I said sarcastically. Belinda didn't catch that and nodded.
"Yes I'm sure you're very bright" Belinda said. I smiled lightly but it was filled with mocking and seriousness.
"Bright? She's phosphorescent!" cried Fern or should I say the evil Clara from The Nutcracker. Die ballerina! Die!
"And stop!" Ms. Gravel shouted. I looked at her and smiled.
"How was that?" Belinda asked. She tossed her died blonde hair that looked really fake. I had to stifle a laugh.
"Amazing! This will be better than the Lion King!" shouted Ms. Gravel. I nodded and Daphne was grinning. Her hair looked too long to be Nessarose but it framed her face prettily. She looks like such a sweet girl. But she's evil, stupid evil witch who trains under Baba Yaga and wet my hair. I'll get her my pretty. I'm pretty sure they are going to need to buy her a wig when I hack off her hair.
