"Wicked always wins"
[ZELENA]
Finally the moment I was hoping would come
The moment he would realize he chose the wrong one
There isn't any curse I could cast to match this feeling
The pain I knew when Rumple turned his back on my heart
At last will be Regina's when her life falls apart
Suddenly the future's looking more appealing
Once I was filled with rage
Now I enjoy the ride
It's so electrifying
Watching all her dreams denied
Oh I will fly into tomorrow
My sister full of sorrow
Finally paying for her sins
I'll smile all the while she is crying
Inside she's slowly dying
Learning wicked always wins
Oh evil may be powerful
But wicked always wins
If mom could see me now she would ache with regret
Cause she'd witness all the glory wickedness gets
She went and made Regina queen and my blood boil
But that's all history
Time they all understood
What they call "green with envy"
I just call "looking good"
Oh I will fly into tomorrow
My sister full of sorrow
Finally paying for her sins
This strife, her life was so enchanted
She took it all for granted
Now she'll dream of could have beens
Oh evil may be powerful
But wicked always
[ZELENA, spoken]
Wait, why just revel in her demise?
When I can use it to my advantage
[ZELENA]
I'll give her a magic gift to bring The Charmings down
When Regina stands victorious
I'll swoop right into town
When he learns the spell was mine
Oh Rumple he will see
He should have chosen me
So I will fly into tomorrow
Delighting in her sorrow
As a better day begins
This time nobody's gonna stop me
No evil's gonna top me
Oh wicked always wins
A happy ending will be mine
Cause wicked always wins
This is my second tribute (here's the first) to one of my all-time favorite TV series - "Once Upon a Time", a story about a modern city where everyone actually is a fairytale character, with a lot of twists, cliffhangers, magic and drama. I hope to build eventually all of my favorite characters from OUAT as the minifigures, but this project will take much time so stay tuned.
SPOILER ALERT!
This is a tribute to Zelena, the Wicked Witch of the West (also known as Kelly West in Storybrooke). When I watched seasons 1-4 back in 2014, for a long time I disliked her - she was trying to kill my other favorite characters, and I don't mean just Emma (every villain is after the Savior, after all), no, I was extremely pissed off because she made Rumplestiltskin her pawn (poor Belle! poor Neal!), and she was trying to destroy the happiness of her sister Regina/the Evil Queen. But in later seasons, which I finally watched this year, Zelena become more sympathetic and complicated character, and as long as she started to be good to Regina, I immediately started rooting for her to become the next redeemed villainess. I was so happy when they finally become the real sisters to each other and also made peace with their mother (who was another villainess), it was an wholesome moment, one of the highlights of the season.
Also when she was evil I was creeped out by her attempts to seduce Robin Hood, and hated her when she finally succeded, and I was not a fan of this plot of "Wicked Witch wants a baby", so initially I disliked the baby as well, but then it turned out other evil forces are coming for that baby, and good characters were still mad at Zelena for what she did, so I was worried for them. Luckily, the later seasons included some time-lapse, so the next time we'll see baby Robin she's a late teenager, and she's cool! Totally not a wasted character! :)
For the character tributes I decided to pick a few (best) songs from the episode, where in the past the wish upon a star accidentally made everyone in the Enchanted forest to sing (and it was both hilarious and epic). Zelena's song is something really worth to listen - she sings about watching the sufferings of her sister, but she sings it SO HAPILLY, like it's a Broadway-type song of wanting to go at the prom or something like that. xD Also she scared the hell out of Munchkins during this one (without even interrupting her happy singing!), and it was HILARIOUS!
Also, for context, she meant that Rumplestiltskin was going to teach her as his best apprentice, but he chose Regina instead (despite the fact that Zelena is actually more powerful), and her mother also made Regina, the younger daughter, the heir, and not an abandoned older daughter Zelena. No wonder poor Zelena was feeling so alone the whole life and taking such great length to be loved... But as I said, it turned out well in the end, she was finally happy with her sister and her daughter Robin. :)
You can watch the scene here:

I hope you'll like my small Emerald City on the horizon, I'm really proud of this one. ;)
