I don't own these characters although that would be pretty cool.

Ironic Contradictions
By: LynnieB
1. I dreamed of a celebration in my honor. My death brings cheers to crowds all across the land.
2. I found someone who was willing to help me harness my powers and meet the Wizard. I was a pawn to them both.
3. I tried to help Oz and its citizens. I was declared wicked without ever intentionally hurting a soul.
4. The most scandilicious, charming, self-absorbed, unbelievably kind hearted Winkie prince in all of Oz gave his heart to me. No one knows but us and Glinda.
5. I have one friend. A best friend. I had to leave her with her last memories being that of my "melting."
I don't know what possessed me to write these down, but for some reason I needed to get them out.
I sit in my room wishing this day would end. It's the worst day of the year. Four years ago to the day we had to leave everything behind. Fiyero is as gentle and supportive as he can be; comforting me whenever he sees a tear start to fall. I've been sitting here rubbing the small glass gem I keep hidden in my pocket and it relieves the pain with happy memories for at least a short time… sigh…
I get up from the bed to watch out the window for a bit. I made sure our room faced east towards the Emerald City. I need to at least feel like it makes me a little closer to Glinda. To imagine as though I can protect my friend a little better. Maybe she can feel it too?
My thoughts are interrupted by a small giggle coming into the room. As I turn I'm nearly knocked to the ground by a 3 year old ball of energy with sticky hands. I pull her in for a hug and take a deep breath. She's perfection with my eyes and hair and Fiyero's nose and skin tone. She got my brains and her father's temper. Thank Oz.
I raise my head to smile at Fiyero and as I bend to kiss our little girl's head I catch a glimpse of us in the mirror. Of course, with my luck, she shares the same color of choice as my favorite bubbly blonde politician. I can't tear my eyes away from the image in front of me as I pull her as close as possible.
6. Pink and Green. They go together.
