What if Galinda wasn't knocked out by the sleep spell Elphaba accidentally did after Dr Dillamond was taken?
__________
"We're going to set him free."
It's a simple statement, yet the fast pace of Fiyero's breathing as he walks back towards them tells Elphaba that he's probably feeling a degree of anxiety. Either that or he's just really excited. It's hard to tell with him sometimes. But he's most definitely tense, his arms in a weirdly stunted position as he holds the cub under his jacket.
As he comes to a stop next to Elphaba in the aisle leading towards the exit door, she has half a mind to take the cub from him, if only to save the poor thing from what's most likely a highly uncomfortable situation. However, the determination in Fiyero's eyes has her deciding not to. For now, at least.
"What?!"
Honestly, Elphaba didn't even know it was possible for Galinda's voice to get so high, and she can't help but roll her eyes in very slight exasperation. "We're saving him."
