Prologue

☆Elphaba's POV☆I waited under the trap door. I suddenly heard someone knocking. I took a quick peak to see it was Fiyero... However, it seemed that my spell turned him into a scarecrow. I opened the trap door.

"It worked!" Fiyero cheered.

"Fiyero," I stated. "I thought you'd never get here." I crawled out and went to touch Fiyero's face.

"Go ahead," Fiyero stated. "Touch, I don't mind. You did the best you could. You saved my life." I placed my hands on Fiyero's face and caressed it.

"You're still beautiful." I stated. Fiyero chuckled.

"You don't have to lie to me." Fiyero stated. I kissed Fiyero's nose.

"It's not lying..." I stated. "Its looking at things another way." Fiyero sighed and took a deep breath.

"It's time to go." Fiyero stated before taking my hand. I looked back at where Glinda stood moments ago.

"We can never come back to Oz," I questioned. "Can we?"

"No." Fiyero stated. "You can't anyways. People haven't noticed that I'm Fiyero Tigelaar, the traitor, as of now. They just see me as the Scarecrow who helped take down The Wicked Witch of the West and Emerald City's new ruler." I nodded.

"I only wish...." I mumbled.

"What?" Fiyero asked with concern in his voice.

"Well," I replied. "Glinda could know that we're alive." Fiyero nodded.

"She can't know," Fiyero stated. "Not if we want to be safe. No one can ever know." I sighed.

"I'm sorry, Glinda." I mumbled. Fiyero kissed my hand.

"Come...." Fiyero muttered. The two of us went off into the night.

Just outside the boarders of Oz was a carriage. Fiyero helped me on before getting on himself. Fiyero signaled for the horse to go. The horse began galloping through the woods. The journey seemed to take forever, but we finally arrived at sunrise to a small cottage with a small garden surrounded by a fence. Fiyero got off the carriage before helping me off.

"I have to go back." Fiyero stated. "It will take a month or so before things settle down in Oz. I have a flying monkey who knows sign language who can get me in the case of an emergency. I'll be back as soon as I can, okay?"

"Alright." I stated. "I love you."

"I love you too." Fiyero stated before kissing me on the forehead and running off. I walked in and took a look around. The flying monkey wasn't there yet, but I didn't mind. I picked up a broom and began cleaning.

"So," I stated to myself. "This is my life now."
