(Random thing I’ need to say: Larena doesn’t support Vinkus-which is the town off the coast of Oz. Ok, start the story now.) 

“You okay?” Glinda asked. Elphaba nodded, which made Glinda frown, simply because  it occurred to Glinda that she wasn’t ok. Elphaba immediately shook her head. Nessarose gasped. “What’s wrong, Fabula (Nessarose came up with this nickname for Elphaba)?” She wheeled herself closer to Elphaba. “Well.. I..” Elphaba stammered. “All of the negative feelings hidden inside of you are surging forward, Elphie. You’ve hidden the bad feelings for too long now. I’ve noticed how you look fine sometimes but really, you don’t feel fine. That’s another reason I’m taking you to Gillikin.” Glinda explained. Elphaba was speechless. “Oz! You’ve been  stalking me!” Elphaba shuddered. “Nu-uh. It’s just.. I’ve been realising how you’ve been acting. Quiet. Extremely quiet.” Glinda replied, flicking her hair, making all the Ozians stare. “Are they staring at me? Or you?” Elphaba whispered to Glinda. ‘Ding ding! We have arrived in Gillikin! If this is your stop, get off now or else!’ The train speakers appeared to be very ridiculous.

The three got off and Nessarose giggled, “Rude train! That train is rude! That’s something i never thought I’d say!” Glinda and Elphaba soon caught the giggles, well at least until Glinda caught sight of her hometown; Gillkin. “Wow..oh, it feels great to be back!” Glinda smiled, gazing dreamily around the streets of Gillikin as the fresh spring air blew through her blonde hair, making it look wavier that it already was.  Glinda interlocked her arm with Elphaba’s and they continued walking to the palace of Gillikin, where Larena was.

When they arrived at the palace, Glinda gave a brisk knock at the large door and Larena opened it. “Galinda?” She gasped.  Glinda shot Larena a look. “It’s Glinda now.” Glinda said, “and this is Elphaba. She is my best friend and I feel she needs life support; she thinks that her father, Frexpar, hates her.”  Larena nodded. “Okay, come in.”

Glinda, Nessarose and Elphaba walked inside, and Elphaba interlocked her hand with Glinda’s. “Are you ok?” Glinda whispered.  Elphaba nodded. “I just feel… Shy, that’s all.” Glinda smiled slightly and squeezed Elphaba’s hand. “Don’t be. It’s fine.”

After arriving in the room, Nessarose and Glinda let Elphaba talk to Larena in peace and went to see Highmuster. “So, Elphaba, is it? What’s making you so insecure?” Larena asked softly. Elphaba sighed. “Frexpar-my father and the govenor of Munchkinland-hates me. About a week ago, he wanted to talk to me about me killing Melena because I was born green so apparently it was my fault. I just feel ilke I’m responsible for my mother passing away.” Elphaba explained.

Larena nodded. “I get it. I’ve helped a person who went through a similar experience.” Larena moved closer and placed a hand on her back. “Is it because of your skin colour?” Larena asked. Elphaba nodded. “I’ve been teased about it for many years. People thought I ate grass as a child; that really annoyed me.” Elphaba explained.         “Oh my, I bet it did! I’d have hated to be bullied like that!” Larena gasped, immediately feeling immense sympathy-along with something else, something she couldn’t identify. “Ignore the bad comments and take in the good ones. You are unique and are a beautiful woman; you need to see that in yourself. That’s the only thing I can suggest. But if the bullying gets worse, tell Glinda or a teacher at Shiz. They’ll help.” Larena smiled warmly and Elphaba smiled back. “Thank you.” Elphaba said. “No problem. See you later.” Larena smiled.

“Elphie!” Glinda gasped, running up to Elphaba and hugging her. “Glinda.” Elphaba smiled. Glinda perked her gaze to Highmuster. “We really should be going back to Shiz now.” Glinda said. Highmuster nodded. “Okay. It was nice seeing you, Glinda.”

Elphaba, Nessarose and Glinda arrived back at Shiz and went into their dormitories-they’d been allowed the day off. “Soooo..how are you feeling now?” Glinda asked curiously. Elphaba thought for a second.    “A load better. Thank you so much for taking me to Gillikin, Glinda. You really are the best friend I could ever want. Thank you for being part of my life.” Elphaba smiled. Glinda blushed and beamed. “You are as well, my sweet.” Glinda replied, hiding an urge to hug her best friend in a non-friend sort of way.. “What are you doing?!” Elphaba stared at Glinda.

End of part 4! Should this be the last part or not?! I don’t know. I enjoy writing about this stuff but probably need to do a different topic on ‘Wicked.’ So.. It’s decided.

The end!! I really hope you have enjoyed(or if you aren’t finished with the other chapters enjoy) reading this series!!
