After this chapter it's only the epilogue left! Yay! And then the new story will come out. It's called: Rent
Make Me
As I walked from the stage, still in my costume people were rushing up to me and touching Fern, Puck, Daphne and I. I hadn't let go of Fern since we walked off stage. I was clinging to her like I was a baby. Instead of feeling like a child I just felt as if I couldn't live without hanging onto her.
"Please don't touch her!" warned Puck who was back to wearing his 'Captain of the Guard' costume. Fern had her staff/wand and I had my broom. Daphne looked severe and she was walking slowly.
"Where are we going?" asked Fern. I smiled, softly at my best friend and kissed Puck on the cheek.
"We're going to talk to my parents about me renting an apartment for us. Well, moving to New York in general. I can go since I'm almost a legal adult but…Daphne is another story" I explained. She nodded and I walked up to them.
"You were great Sabrina and congratulations" Mom said, hugging me. I could only hug her back with one hand, since my other was intertwined with Fern's.
"Thank you. You know…instead of whining, long ago I should have seen…all the things I could have been. Now, I understand that I had been careless and unthinking. I only cared for myself and now I see that instead of trying to be someone I'm not I should be someone I am. I am an actress. I am a singer. I am a dancer. I am Fern's best friend. I am an Everafter. And most of all I am Wicked. This book, Mom is the Grimmerie…it is mine. I am able to read it" I said, quietly. Mom gasped and reached out to touch it, to run her finger over the leather cover.
It wasn't me who stopped her. It was Fern and she glared at her.
"Don't touch the Grimmerie. It's not yours to touch. I am Fern the Good, the Sugar Plum Fairy. Glinda…" Fern whispered, looking at the corner. I could see the blonde witch standing in the corner, sobbing. Three people were in the corner. The man had diamond tattoos on his face. He was holding a pale woman in his arms.
"Nessa!" Daphne screeched. The three people stared in shock. I attacked Daphne.
"Give me the shoes!" I shouted. Daphne nodded and snatched them off. We ran over and I tackled the man and the woman.
"Here! I made them during the show! Here take the shoes" I said, breathless. Daphne nodded. The man stared in shock and I smiled slowly.
"W-who are you? How did you know who I was?" demanded Nessarose. Daphne smiled and stepped forward. I could see how alike they looked. They both were slim and pale with dark hair.
"I…I knew it was you. I played you in the musical. I'm similar to you. That boy thought he loved Fern. Your emotions were affecting mine. I was so…angry that I actually made his heart smaller…you're Fiyero" Daphne said, simply, looking at Fiyero. I was looking at the woman standing deeper in the shadows. Her emerald skin was glowing and Puck walked over, studying Fiyero.
"You're that guy who was in my head during the musical. Why the hell were you in my head?" demanded Puck. Fiyero grinned.
"Wow…brainless much" Fiyero smirked. The woman in the shadows rolled her eyes.
"Right! You're just as…now, my pretty, why don't you hand over the Grimmerie and we can just leave" demanded the woman. I raised an eyebrow.
"Over my dead body. I know you aren't capable of killing anyone Elphaba Thropp. The Grimmerie is mine now. You gave it up after running from Oz like a coward! Glinda offered to clear your name. You should've stuck it out and tried to convince them instead of running away" I snapped. Elphaba stepped from the shadows and I flinched. She looked like an older version of me…
"I am not a coward. There was nothing left in Oz for me!" snapped Elphaba. I snorted and crossed my arms.
"Except for your best friend. Do you know that we're so similar that your emotions amplified my own? I was about to tell Fern to take a hike. I then realized I didn't want to be a coward like you. Why don't you stay here and try to do things right. You came here for Nessarose and the Grimmerie. You can have the slippers but not my book!" I snapped, angrily. She looked at me in surprise.
"Shut up, child. You know nothing. Long ago I should have seen…all the things I could have been…I could've changed Oz. Careless and unthinking I moved onward. I hadn't even given Oz a thought. I cared only about the fact that I was lied to. I know that now!" she shouted. Over the din nobody but my family heard her. They were looking at us curiously. My Dad was coming to and I could see Mom telling him what had happened. He looked enraged. He stormed over.
"I said the same thing about my problems…" I whispered. She stared at me in shock when Dad interrupted.
"You're not going to the city young lady without us! And I'm not leaving now that Basil's old enough to be a junior detective!" Dad said. Suddenly, Elphaba was in front of me and Nessa was in front of Daphne. I stared in shock.
"Leave them alone, sir. I don't give a damn if you're their father. I had a father who yelled at me and tried to control me. I won't allow you to do the same to them" Elphaba sneered. Dad's mouth dropped open and Glinda was next to Fern.
"Y-you're the Wicked Witch of the West. And the East!" Dad gasped. Elphaba smirked and fixed the brim of my hat.
"And your daughter is Sabrina Grimm. Though unknowingly she has my powers. She unknowingly recreated my life story. She chose differently and now she's being rewarded. Deny this child of both worlds and I will find you and end your miserable existence. I have long accepted my wrongly given title. I will embrace it even more" Elphaba snapped. Dad turned to Daphne.
"She can go. But Daphne may not. She's only 8…14!" Dad snapped. Daphne stared in shock and whipped out a wand. It wasn't her who responded. Nessarose stepped forward.
"I am Nessarose Thropp. I will not allow you to deny this child her dream. She will receive what she deserves. She is not 8. She is not a little child who needs her mother. She is high independent and a teenager. I offer to watch over her in New York City" Nessa snapped. I stared in shock and Elphaba nodded in agreement and looked at me.
"I…I'm not a maternal person. But from afar I will make sure they will stay out of trouble. Fiyero offers to watch over King Robin and I will watch over Queen Sabrina. Glinda…Glinda? Will watch over the Sugar Plum Fairy?" asked Elphaba, becoming nervous as she spoke to her former best friend. Glinda glared at her.
"You left me, thinking you were dead! Are you out of your mind!" snapped Glinda. Fiyero held up a hand.
"Don't, Glinda. She wanted to tell you but I wouldn't let her. It wouldn't be safe for her or you. We couldn't bring you with us!" Fiyero snapped. Glinda glared at them in anger.
"Why not? I would've been better with you!" she shouted. People were starting to look. I stepped in front of Elphaba and I was just as tall as she was. I hid her from view and looked at Daphne.
"Daphne, now!" I snapped. She nodded once and slid her wand from her sleeve. She raised it.
"Gimme some darkness!" she commanded. Darkness spread and surrounded our little group. Mom suddenly appeared next to Dad.
"Maybe you would, Glin, but Oz wouldn't be! Oz needed their Glinda the Good! And don't pretend you didn't know I was alive! I know you knew" Elphaba snapped. Glinda sighed and looked away.
"Elphie…all I heard was your voice singing with my own. I was depressed. I hated ruling over Oz. That's why I left…" Glinda whispered. Elphaba looked into her best friend's eyes.
"I know and I've wanted to see you but it was too dangerous. Nessa shouldn't even be alive. They screwed up the facts. I saved her and I made sure you would never know. You're my friend, Glin. Help me…look after Fern for me, while I look after my own protégé" whispered Elphaba. Mom stepped forward.
"Who is your 'protégé'?" demanded Mom. I smiled and raised my hand.
"I am…Mom, I want to go to New York to perform in Wicked and I want Daphne to come with me" I said. Mom shook her head.
"Absolutely not! No! Not at all…she's staying here!" Mom snapped. Daphne glared and her tattoos blazed so dark that I was even frightened. Daphne slid the wand back in her sleeve, slowly.
"Make me" she whispered, quietly. Mom looked at her in shock and Daphne only snapped her finger when the darkness cleared. Daphne walked, past her slowly. She stopped when they were right next to her. Mom was tall so Daphne only met her shoulder but Mom cringed away all the same.
"I've always been all about family duty. I convinced Sabrina to stay true to our family but now it's my turn. Now I say it again. Make me" she whispered, coldly. Mom flinched away and looked at her. Daphne walked away slowly. She stopped and looked at me.
"Are you going to be devoted to a family business you never wanted to be apart of? Or are you going to support me?" she asked, quietly. I walked up to her and we faced each other. She looked up at me and I could see the similarities between us. But…Daphne…she was colder. She was turning into…Nessarose.
"I'll come with you. It's better this way. Just me and you" I whispered. Daphne smirked and leaned forward.
"That's a wicked thing to say, Sabrina" she said, quietly. I laughed quietly and shook my head.
"But it's true. Mom…Dad…you never wanted us to be apart of this. And now that we don't want to, you're trying to hold us back. But I won't accept it. Fern…Puck, are you with me?" I asked. They both nodded, obediently.
"We're leaving after graduation…with or without your blessing" I warned. They looked at us in shock and before I was out of earshot I heard them.
"When did this happen? When did they become adults?" Mom asked. Dad sighed.
"When we weren't there for them, I suppose."
I turned to Daphne and her tattoos were still blazing. I touched her shoulder and she nodded once. The Gaelic tattoos decorating face calmed down into her skin tone and I turned to Elphaba, Glinda, Nessarose, and Fiyero.
"You'll be watching over us?" I asked. They nodded in sync.
"From afar. We will watch you and wait…and if you ever need our help we will be there. Now, can you get us out of Ferryport Landing?" Elphaba asked. I nodded once.
"My sword is the only thing that can cut the barrier and we used it once. The cast are all children of various Everafters. Daphne and I can go through because we weren't born Everafters. The Vorpal Sword…" I said, quietly. Elphaba nodded once, without showing surprise.
"Then I will take my leave. I can find the hole in the barrier. Congratulations" Elphaba said. I smiled and Glinda waved goodbye.
"Congratulotions!" she said.
"My congrats" Fiyero answered.
"Thank you for the shoes. Fiyero used to have to carry me everywhere. I wanted to be here for this. Thank you" Nessa said. She surprisingly hugged Daphne and Daphne returned it. They turned and left and Fern stood next to me. She looked at me, her brow furrowed.
"Now all we have to do is find a penthouse…any suggestions?" she asked.
"Oh Fern…"
