Spell 25 .: Elphaba :.Unlimited...[In person]

[1ofyour5aday]

[After her near-fatal encounter with Zarbon, and after a day or two of being room bound, Elphaba had found her way back out into the world. She meant to find Kuja at some point and thank him, and she also had to find a gift for someone called Oz. Weirdly ironic that the Author had paired them together for this particular plot, but hey - she didn't

Oh, hey there, friend. o/

[Zarbon, as Elphaba's poor misfortune would have it, is not far. As far as he is concerned, he's given Dende time enough to respond and so far, all he's gotten is stone walling. Of course, it doesn't help that the Author is forcing his hand and making him shop for a "present" on top of all this. He still isn't entirely certain that he wants to give into such demands from his captor. However, he finds himself idly glancing in store windows as he passes them and debating what to get should he decide to give in.

No matter; more importantly, he will find Dende.

He almost doesn't notice Elphaba, but he's quick to recognize her when he does. There aren't too many other green people about in this city. With a bemused smirk, he makes his way over to her, stopping beside her to mock her with kind words.]

Looks as though you're feeling better.

8D BFF!! Haaay gurl! It's been too long~♥

[1ofyour5aday]

[hsdjggkav--!!! Backing away from you now, putting on a brave face but feeling less than that]

Evidently, your powers of observation are intact..

Wanna go shoppin'? :D

[beautiful_brute]

[You guessed it, a chuckle.]

I didn't think I would be able to say the same about you. How is it you've healed so quickly? Surely you didn't manage all this on your own?

Not before grabbin' a skinny latte with extra foam 8Dd

[1ofyour5aday]

I had help from a friend of mine.

[Yeah, you're not getting any names. Very slowly, she's moving away, really not keen on being around this particular resident]

That's a must.

[beautiful_brute]

How fortunate for you.

[He flips his braid over his shoulder.]

Let me cut right to the point. It seems to me you know the particular Namekian I seek, so why don't you tell me where he is?

:3

[1ofyour5aday]

[She frowns]

I'm not telling you anything.

[beautiful_brute]

I thought you might say that.

[He doesn't make any motion against her, however.]

[1ofyour5aday]

[If anything, those words accompanied by no action freak her out more, but, she tries not to show it]

So, what? Go on - go find him. I'm not going to help you so you're just wasting your time

[Turning away, she goes to head off in the opposite direction..]

[beautiful_brute]

Then I'm afraid you're not going anywhere.

[Still doesn't move. Don't make him, Elphaba.]

[1ofyour5aday]

[She stops, her heart now pounding in her throat]

I don't want a repeat of last time, Zarbon.

Leave me alone.

[beautiful_brute]

Tell me where "Dende" is and I'll let you go about your business.

[1ofyour5aday]

[Starting to feel pretty nervous now. She turns back to face him]

Then we have a problem, don't we? I already told you, I'm not telling you anything.

[beautiful_brute]

You don't want a repeat of last time, do you?

[1ofyour5aday]

[The only time Elphaba liked ultimatums was when she was the one presenting them. And yet, despite herself, she found herself saying this..]

I'm not going to tell you. You can threaten me all you want.

[beautiful_brute]

[Zarbon frowns.]

I would prefer not to threaten you at all, but you leave me no choice.

[He folds his arm.]

However, there is no point in causing you bodily harm again. At least, not without a reason.

[1ofyour5aday]

[She steps back a little more]

And what sort of reason would you be looking for, exactly..?
