(NOTE): Just so you know, I have read the book 4 times completely through so I know the differences in the book and musical. This continuation just kinda fuses them together..
Fiyero woke up the next morning with his arms around Elphaba. He smiled and kissed her bare shoulder as her eyes slowly opened. She turned her body to look at her husband.
"Morning, Fae! Happy anniversary!" Fiyero said. Elphaba smiled. "Oh, I can't wait any longer!" he continued "I have to give you your...other...present now!" He gently released her and reached down over his edge of the bed and sorted through his clothes.
"Oh really?" Elphaba said sitting up, raising an eyebrow playfully "I thought you gave me all you had last night, and I must say it was quite...sufficient."
"Only sufficient!" he said, rising back up "Well if it was so sufficient, I guess you won't be wanting little, flat, hexagon-shaped ruby surrounded by smaller, similarly-shaped diamonds dangling from the middle.
"Yero" she gasped "it's absolutely gorgeous!"
" It was my great-grandmother's. My mother gave it to me before I went to Shiz, to give it to my 'one true love when I found her'.That's the main reason they even sent me to Shiz in the first place. To find a bride for myself. And, well" he slid behind her and she raised her hair up as he clasped the necklace around her neck "I'm positive that I have definitely found her." He put his hands on her shoulders as he planted small kisses on the side of her neck. Elphaba moaned and brought his hands down to her breasts.
"You know" she said softly "I have another suprise for you, too."
"Oh? And what might that be?" he said between kisses.
"Well, Yero my Hero, I'm going to..." but before she could say have a baby,the door opened and Kaphion walked in. They both looked up as he said "Well, guys, the guests are just leaving and..." he cut off as he saw what he had just interrupted. "AH HA!" he exclaimed pointing at them "Now we're EVEN! You catch me with my wife, and I catch you with yours!" Elphaba was both relieved and embarassed that Fiyero's hands were still covering her breasts. She brought the sheet up to her chest and Fiyero placed his hands back on her shoulders.
"Alright" Fiyero said,trying to look unnerved "fine, you caught us. So we're even."
"By the way, dear brother, I certainly hope you're 'properly protected'."
"Are you kidding? Proper protection is rare and expensive! Especially around here!"
"Then what made you think I had any?"
"Like I said: we're even."
Elphaba grinned as she rolled her eyes. "So Kaphion." she said "What did you want?"
"Well, as I was saying, the guests are just leaving and I was wondering if you would like to join my wife and me for breakfast in the Banquet Hall?"
"We'd love to." Elphaba replied "Just let us put on...something more appropriate."
"Alright then" he said bowing "I shall see you soon then." He walked out the door, but before he shut it, he turned back and said"And, by the way, about my wife" his voice went lower "I have told her all about you and she's extremely nervous about meeting you so...be gentle, huh?" he smiled and closed the door.
"Well, Fae" Fiyero said, getting out of bed "I guess we'd better get going. But, what did you want to tell me?"
"Um...I think I'll leave it a suprise a little while longer.I have a feeling I'm going to need something look forward to today. I have a lot of questions to ask your little brother."
After they were dressed, Fiyero and Elphaba went down to the Banquet Hall. They saw Kaphion sitting with his wife, who was looking very nervous. "Fiyero, Elphaba" Kaphion said " this is my wife, Inchea.Chee, darling, this is my brother and his wife, Elphaba."
"Ch-ch-charmed, I'm sure." she stuttered with a weak smile. Elphaba smiled as looked at her young sister-in-law. She was a slightly plump, pretty thing with kind brown eyes and dark sandy hair.
"Please, sit down" Kaphion said "Fiyero, come sit across from me.Elphaba you can sit across from Chee. That's great. So, now, tell me, what brings you to Kiamo Ko since you obviously didn't come for the wedding?"
"Kaphion" Fiyero said "We heard that the Wizard and Madame Morrible are back in power. Is it true?" The smile on Kaphion's face vanished. He gave a large sigh and said "Yes, I'm afaid. It is true. But how did you find out?" They gave an account of what had happened two days earlier up to point when they arrived at Kiamo Ko. When they were done, Inchea nodded. "It was right of you to come here." she said "I've always disliked the Wizard, and Kaphion and I would be pleased to help in any way we can."
"Could you tell us about Glinda?" Elphaba asked "What's happened to her?" Kaphion and Inchea quickly glanced worriedly at each other.
"Sh-she was arrested and tried at a public hearing for callaborating with...you" Inchea said relunctantly "They...whipped her in front of the entire Emerald City and sentenced her to life inprisonment." Elphaba's eyes widened in shock and anger.My best friend was beaten and imprisoned because of ME! she thought.
"But that's not all theWizard has done." Kaphion said with disgust "He's allowed slavery to be legal. The Gale Force is raiding Muchinkinland left and right and selling the Muchkinsas slaves all over Oz. He reason for this is 'The Wicked Witches of the West and the East were both born to Muchinkin parents. Clearly evil must run through Munchkin veins. We must supress them before they can give birth to another wicked witch!' And people are actually buying this shit! Elphaba! Hey, wait! Where're you going!" Elphaba had lept from her chair and was running out the door, anger and sadness carved on her face.
" Elphaba!" Fiyero shouted.
"No, don't!" Inchea said as Fiyero started to get up "Give her some time to herself. Poor thing. What she must be feeling!"
