"Damn it." He said as the books went tumbling. Kiamo Ko was a whole new world to him. Even as a child, he never was inside his family's Winter home much. He had always much prefered to be running around in some forest, or the like. So, it wasn't all that surprising when he accidently entered the castle's library instead of the dining hall.

And now his world was even more differant. He had married Sarima at age seven, but just that summer, right after he graduated from Shiz, they had officaily began living together. And now, Sarima was pregnant with their first child.

The sudden changes frightened him, although he wouldn't let anyone else know that.

Upon looking at the books, he noticed, a photograph had slid out of the stack. He gently picked it up, and carried it to the light a near-by window, letting the light shine in.

The photo was in black and white. He could clearly see all of his friends, the charmed circle. Avaric, with a grin, one arm around a young Fiyero, the other around Munchkin Boq. Boq apeared to be gazing at Glinda. Silly, but fun Crope and Tibbett in front of them. And the ladies. Shen-Shen, Milla, and Pfannee, all smiled at the camera, and clearly had no real thoughts in their heads. On the other side, were Glinda, Nessarose, and Elphaba. Glinda had an arm around Nessarose's shoulders, probably meant to soften her deformity. But it was Elphaba who took his breath away.

In the black and white picture, no one could see her odd coloring. You could just see her. He saw the long black hair. Strange, that day it was strewn around her shoulders, instead of in her usual braid. He saw her sharp, refined features. But it was those eyes, those lovely dark eyes that made her Elphaba. Her eyes appeared to be looking right through the camera, and at Fiyero.

Odd. He decided he liked green Elphaba more.
