Heyy, so here is chapter 12! :D

Emilee's POV

I woke up still kind of tired, but I couldn't fall asleep again. I lived with my legal guardian Stephanie J. Block one of my favorite broadway stars, how luck was I? I don't know what happened to my mother, didn't know if she was alive or dead or anything. Steph, never really explained any of that. My alarm clock went of with a song. I decided to sing along...

She loves the ones with all that wounded pride
The ones who carry all that hurt inside
Who never seem to find a place they belong
She's got a heart like a sad song

And she will give them all the love she can
Even when love won't give her half a chance
And she will stay with them till all hope is gone
She's got a heart like a sad song

There's a wedding picture she still keeps
Of the girl she was and the man he seemed to be
He left her the house with the picket fence
And walked away with her innocence

There's a wedding picture she still keeps
Of the girl she was and the man he seemed to be
He left her the house with the picket fence
And walked away with her innocence

Now from the moment that love comes to call
She's waiting for that other shoe to fall
Goodbye's the only thing that she's counting on
Oh, she's got a heart like a sad song
She's got a heart like a sad song

I almost felt like crying. Sometimes all I could think about is my mom. All those thoughts that she might be alive. Did she leave me on purpose? Did she not love me? Or did she have a reason for leaving me? I mean its normal to wonder right?

I took a shower, got dressed and combed my hair, then walked downstairs.

"Good morning Em," Stephanie greeted me. "What's wrong honey? You look sad."

"Oh its nothing I'm okay Steph."

"Alright then. I made you some breakfast, its on the table sweetie."

"Thanks."

I sat down at the table and ate even though I wasn't that hungry. I packed a sandwich and an apple in my backpack then said bye to Steph and went outside and and biked to school.

I was riding down the street and there was a lady who walked on the sidewalk. She had a box, and she dtopped it and papers came flying out of it.. I got off my bike and ran over to her.

"Hey mam, let me help you with that." I got down on the ground and picked up all the papers, put them back in the box and handed it back to her.

"Thank you very much," the lady said.

"No problem."

The lady looked at me for a long minute almost as if she knew me.

"Uh, mam, are you alright?" I asked.

"Oh yes, sorry I thought I knew you from somewhere. Sorry."

"Oh that's okay, I do that sometimes." I laughed. "Anyways, my name is Emilee."

The lady looked trouble."Oh nice to meet you.. My name is Vanessa Zop.

"Nice to meet you. Well I have to go. Bye." I got back on my bike and rode to school.

Nessa's POV

Wow, I just saw my daughter. She really has grown up. I guess I should drop by Stephanie's... I think it's time Emilee knew the truth after 17 years...

I walked to her house and knocked the door and she answered.

"Nessa? Is that you?" Steph asked.

"Yes Stephanie. It's me."

"Okay then, come in come in. Would you like a cup of tea or coffee?"

"Tea is good. Milk, no sugar."

"So are you going to tell her now?" she asked.

"Yes, when she gets home from school. She's 17 she needs to know the truth."

"Yes she does, she has been rather sad lately."

"Oh my, maybe I did wait too long."

"Well it's better late than never."

Glinda's POV

I was still worried about Lin. She still hasn't really recovered her memory. Elphie and I were sitting under a nearby oak tree talking about what to do next while Lin and Heidi were swimming in the river.

"What should we do Elphie? She still hasn't recovered her memory and Boq kidnapped Hanna, and he is still getting more powerful every day."

"Well we won't give up-" Elphie was interrupted by the radio there was a news report. Thanks goodness they translated it in English...

"Breaking news. The girl who was kidnapped recently Hanna age 16, still hasn't shown up. The young army ranger recruit who was sent to investigate Alex Cayran still hasn't returned and his radio signal has been lost. The army rangers cannot track him." the lady on the radio reported

"Oh my Oz Elphie, this is all so scary."

"Don't worry Glinda. We will get Lin's memory back somehow. Boq won't get away with this..."

I hugged her, "Yes, we can't back down."

Emilee's POV

The school day went by pretty fast. When I got home that lady Vanessa Zop was there talking to Steph.

"Hi Em." Steph greeted me.

"Hey Steph." I then looked at the lady, "Oh hey you're the lady I met this morning right?"

"Yes... Hey Emilee, I must tell you something. My name is not Vanessa Zop. I'm Nessarose Thropp and you may not believe it, but you are my daughter..."

What? And wait, did she just say Nessarose Thropp like as in from Wicked the musical? I'm dreaming right? I couldn't believe it... Now it was time for me to get some answers...

Hey! So what do you think? I hope you liked it, by the way if you didn't know, the character Emilee is based on my fanfiction friend Demulrina. Well anyways remember to review! :D Bitte und danke! :)
