Ext. Outskirts of the Emerald City-late afternoon
(nearly two months later, ELPHABA and IDINA are flying on brooms)
ELPHABA
Come on Idina, I'm winning!
(she looks over her shoulder and IDINA isn't there)
Idina?
(IDINA emerges from a cloud ahead of Elphaba)
IDINA
Who's winning?
(they laugh as they land)
IDINA
(suddenly serious)
Elphaba?
ELPHABA
What is it?
IDINA
I think it's time for me to go.
ELPHABA
That was sudden. Are you sure it's time?
IDINA
I'm sure. I just have a feeling that I'm needed.
ELPHABA
If you're sure, then I have something for you.
(ELPHABA pulls out a leather bound book)
This is a book of all the spells I know. I made it in the Badlands after I gave the Grimmerie to Glinda, but now I think you should have it.
IDINA
(taking the book)
I don't know what to say. This is amazing.
ELPHABA
I also wanted to give you this.
(pulls out an emerald jeweled key on a chain)
This is a Key to Oz. It allows the wearer to travel between worlds any time they wish.
(puts the key around IDINA'S neck)
Make sure you come and visit soon.
IDINA
To quote Wicked,
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have rewritten mine by being my friend
Like a ship blown from it's mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird in a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
(ELPHABA laughs)
ELPHABA
You and that musical. But I guess it's true.
(IDINA hugs her)
IDINA
I'll be back soon. Now go make sure Glinda isn't turning the Emerald City into the Pink Glitter City.
(they laugh. IDINA turns the key in the air and a glowing doorway appears)
ELPHABA
Goodbye.
(IDINA steps through the doorway and disappears)
