A/N: This is a compilation of a series of oneshots and drabbles completed within the last two hours. Please excuse the fact that they may be slightly off of the plot line, and may not be in order either. Sorry! Also, please take the time to review. I really appreciate feedback :)
Gregory Maguire owns these wonderful witches and Winkie princes; and Horrible Morribles and not-so-wonderful Wizards. I don't. Dang it.
…I couldn't be happier…
Glinda's stomach lurched, whisking a sideways glance at Fiyero. What a mess you've made, Glin. The Winkie prince shook his head, an over exaggerated smile adorning his face. Her dreams hadn't come true. They never had. Elphaba was still hated; and what for? For nothing; reviled because of carefully constructed lies! The witch looked out, over the excited crowd as they awaited her final words to end her public address, with the smallest hint of a tear playing at her eyes.
"Thank goodness for today!" She smiled. This is truly awful, Glinda thought to herself. Glinda bit her lip, waving merrily to the crowd below. As she turned to exit the raised podium, she felt a strong grip on her arm, sharp nails digging into her soft, lotion-treated skin. Morrible glared at her when their backs were completely turned from the crowd of Ozians, and gave the young witch a slap to the back of her head.
"How selfish are you, Ms. Upland?" She snarled into Glinda's ear. "You wear your emotions on your sleeve, you damned fool."
"I am selfish. Surely so, I am selfish enough to care about the future of my career, and people's trust in me, unlike yourself. You're nothing but a lying, conniving, sniveling coward." She sneered, her sweet voice suddenly turned livid with disgust. With that statement, Glinda promptly ripped her arm from Morrible's tenacious grip, and proudly descended to the waiting throng of people, oblivious to the hidden quarrel that had just transpired. All that they knew was of an elaborate public engagement of the newly-appointed Captain of the Guard, Fiyero Tiggular, and the Good Witch of the North, Glinda Upland, of the Upper Uplands.
