Catfight
The lights went up and Fern stood in her final outfit. She had her stupid staff/wand in her hand and she had the ridiculous crown in her hair. I sneered at her from the side and glared. You could see the house and the edge of the Yellow Brick road. She waved at someone not on the stage.
FERN
That's right you just take
That road the whole time
I hope they don't get lost!
I'm so bad at giving directions (People laughed…I don't know how that's funny. My dad looked okay now but still was extremely pale. Wonder what'll happen when I tell him that I'm in love with the fairy boy. He had almost died from oxygen loss when I told him I was an Everafter. She picked up flowers and placed them near what looked liked my sister's feet and without my ruby slippers)
Oh Nessa. (I choked back a sob and looked down, shaking slightly with anger, rage and sorrow as I watched. I had to constantly remind myself that I hadn't failed my sister and that currently, she was sitting backstage, sipping that mocha she had sent a stage hand to get from Starbucks across town. I stormed on the stage and stood towards the side, near the Yellow Brick road, absolutely infuriated.)
SABRINA
What a touching display of grief
FERN
I don't believe we have anything (She stood abruptly and crossed away angrily, not looking at me at all. Where the hell was my best friend in this cold girl's eyes?)
Further to say to one another
SABRINA
I wanted something to remember her by.
And all that was left of her was those shoes
And now that wretched little farm girl
Has walked off with them! (I glared at her with anger that you couldn't fake yet the crowd laughed anyway…they knew who the farm girl was. It was obviously Dorothy who would never show her face in this show. Thank God!)
So I'd appreciate some time alone to
Say goodbye to my sister (Fern held her hand out and walked away as I crouched near the fake legs that resembled Daphne's. The more I looked, the more grief filled me. And so much rage…so much…)
Nessa, Nessa please…please forgive me (Fern looked at me with a softer expression and turned to look at me)
FERN
Elphie…Elphie, you musn't blame yourself! (She rushed over to sit by me, not even realizing I was shaking in anger. She was unbelievable. She made hints that she'd hurt my sister because I'd taken Puck from her. Yeah, right! He was always mine from the moment I met him)
It's dreadful, it is, to have a house fall on you
But accidents will happen (She sounded sad but I looked at her in anger, my expression sharp yet cold. I began to control my temper but I was still angry at her. Not angry enough to run her through with her ridiculous staff that I was sure was real, but close)
SABRINA
You call this an accident? (I rose to my feet and Fern followed my example, my voice raising slightly)
FERN
Well…maybe not an accident but…
SABRINA
Well what would you call it!
FERN
A regime change! (There was so much laughter to that, that people had to kind of quiet the audience. I glared at the audacity she had to say that. How dare she even suggest…)
Caused by a very bizarre
And unexpected twister of fate
SABRINA
So you think cyclones just appear (Wow…sarcasm was spilling out of me like a waterfall today. Maybe it was just my chracter…nah, I'm sure it's me. I'm always sarcastic)
Out of the blue?
FERN
No, I never really…
SABRINA
Of course you've never!
You're too busy telling everyone
Had wonderful everything is!
FERN
I'm a public figure now! (Public figure my ass! She's a liar and a sore loser! She first pretended to be my friend, stabbed me in the back, became my best friend and then got angry when she saw how in love we were!)
People expect me to… (I cut her off and glared at her angrily)
SABRINA
Lie?
FERN
Be encouraging!
And what exactly have you been doing?
Besides riding around on that
Filthy old thing? (I refused to look at her and I had an angry pout on my face. I was facing the audience and I turned my head slightly.)
SABRINA
Well, we can't all come and go by bubble… (There was a roar of approval and people broke into applause and some even stood up. Finally, a standing ovation! I never freaking get a big applause like Fern!)
Who's invention was that, the Wizard's?
Or even if it wasn't I'm sure he'd still
Take credit for it (I got another applause. Wow, I'm on fire tonight! Sarcasm is a tool that can be bring me far in life…I'm sure of it now!)
FERN
Yes, well…a lot of us are taking
Things that don't belong to us, aren't we? (She sounded pathetic and I looked at her angrily and coldly. I turned to her slowly)
SABRINA
You just wait a clock tick
I know it might be difficult for that
Blissful blonde brain of yours to
Comprehend that someone like him (I was walking towards her quickly and I wanted to lunge at her, right then and there. The only thing that stopped me was the fact that we were on stage. And on stage was not a place to pick a fight when it wasn't supposed to take place…well not yet. Daphne was better than me at hand to hand combat but if someone gives me sword…well someone was going to die!)
Could actually love me
But it's happened, it's real!
And you can wave that ridiculous wand
All you want! You can't change it! (She looked at me in surprise as I stormed up to her and got her in face. She was finally realizing that I was right…I mean who would love me. The Grimm girl. The person who was trapping the Everafters in here if they didn't have the Vorpal Blade. Who wouldn't love the beautiful Sugar Plum Fairy? She loved him, that was obvious. But no, Puck liked a challenge, which meant loving well…me)
He never belonged to you!
He doesn't love you! And he never did! (There were gasps from everyone, including Fern. Every word I said was like a slap to her face and she felt the sting because it was true)
He loves me! (Everyone was quiet and then Fern's hand flashed out. Instead of doing a fake slap her palm connected with my face. The slap rang out like a gong. I gasped and grabbed my cheek. She hit like a GIRL! She was angry and I had been completely cruel to her…but…suddenly, the most witchy cackle erupted from me and everyone stared at me in shock. I could see my father. I didn't cackle. I never had. It was reserved for a witch so when I cackled they knew I was what I was playing. A witch)
Feel better now?
FERN
Yes I do (She said nodding. She was still incredibly angry I knew but not enough to slap me. That was good. I rolled my shoulders back and stood tall, dropping my hand from my cheek)
SABRINA
Good (My hand snapped forward and I didn't hold back. She spun in a couple of circles from the force of my slap. I smirked and held my broom tightly)
So do I! (We growled at each other and I grabbed my broom with two hands and she followed with her wand. We ran in circles and then Fern began twirling her staff like a ninja. There was a roar of applause and laughter when we launched at each other. We hit broom to staff twice before settling on the old fashioned way. She began to hit me with my hat and I pushed into her. Guards rushed on stage and pulled us apart. They held me secure with disdain)
GUARD
Halt! In the name of the Wizard!
SABRINA
Stop! Let me go!
FERN
Let me go! I almost had her (Yeah right. I could've had you flat on your back in a second. She's lucky we're acting or we would've had a fight to the death. My wings would be out and I definitely be torturing with the Latin Jurisdiction)
GUARD
I'm sorry it took us
So long to get here, Miss!
FERN
What! What do you mean? (The evil little girl was pretending not to know! Yeah right, stupid bitch! Yeah I said it!)
SABRINA
I can't believe you'd sink this low…(I can!)
To use my sister's death as a trap to capture me?
FERN
Elphie! I didn't mean for this to happ…en… (Puck swung on stage on a vine, in his Captain of the Guard outfit and a gun in his hand. He was walked on stage and went to the middle)
PUCK
Let the green girl go! (He sounded hot and he swung the gun over his shoulder and pointed it, looking incredibly badass all the while. Everyone cheered and got on their feet. Well except for my dad but that's beside the point. He got up and smirked. His ego's even more inflated. I didn't know it could get bigger)
SABRINA
Fiyero, how in Oz?
PUCK
I said let her go! (He crossed to Glinda and pointed the gun at Fern's head. Okay…now I didn't really want him to shoot her. I'd kill her myself but not by blowing her brains out. That was too gory…yes, even for me)
Or explain to all of Oz how the
Wizard's guards watched while
Glinda the Good was slain (The guards moved forward towards Puck and I bit my lip. I didn't like seeing him in danger. It's just too…weird)
FERN
Fiyero, no!
PUCK
I said let her go… (Fern waved her hand and they released me and he moved towards me. He picked up my broom, moving back and he tossed it to me.)
That's right!
Elphaba, go…now!
SABRINA
No! Not without you
FERN
Fiyero, please… (She was getting weaker in her resolved and it was almost heart wrenching. ALMOST. I hadn't lost all of my anger towards her even though she was my 'best friend'. Not until she said sorry she wasn't)
PUCK
Hush…GO!
I'll just add it to your tab! (OKAY! That was NOT A LINE! What the hell is he doing? Is he trying to be funny? It's cute but are you serious? There was laughter. I mean serious intense laughter. They were cracking up so much that they couldn't stop. I looked at Fern as they finally quieted down)
FERN
Do it… (She tossed me the hat and ran off stage. Puck moved and then the guards maneuvered around her. Suddenly he resigned and dropped his gun. They watched him)
GUARD
Seize him! (They grabbed him and tugged him off and he was resigned. His silver eyes were dulled to a blue now that he couldn't see me and I think he was getting involved in this as well…his emotions were definitely heightened)
FERN
Wait what are you doing?
Stop it! (They forced him to his knees and put him on poles. I looked at the corn field back drop and I slid into area below where the trap door opened and I stepped on the platform)
In the name of Goodness, stop! (The name of 'Goodness'. You bitch! You're anything but Good)
Don't you see! He wasn't going to harm me!
He just…he, he loves her (I TAKE BACK EVERY BAD THING I EVER SAID! YES! She gave up. HE'S MINE! ALL MINE! I win. She loses! Ha!)
PUCK
Glinda, I'm sorry (He means Fern, I'm sorry. But nope)
GUARD
Take him up to that field there
FERN
No wait! (She ran over to get a better look as they lifted him and they started to playing the instrumental of 'No One Mourns The Wicked'.)
GUARD
Put him up on one of those poles
Until he tells us where the witch went!
FERN
Don't you hurt him!
Please don't hurt him
FIYERO!
I shook, about to let out the most anguish cry I had ever uttered. He be much, much, much worst than Fern's…because I loved him more than she could ever hope to. My delusional best friend didn't know how much anguish and anger I had kept pent up that I was about to unleash…
Well she'd know in literally 2 seconds…
