Kera's POV

"You too!" I heard Kimiko call back. I was walking down one of the temple hallways, to meat Clay in front of the vault. I felt this strange mixture of happiness and nervousness. I walked outside and found myself standing in the bright, full moon's light.

"Howdy." I heard a very familiar voice greet from behind me. I turned around to find Clay standing there with the Silver Manta Ray, activated, behind him.

"Hey," I greeted, "So where are we going?" He smiled and handed me a blindfold.

"It's a surprise," He smiled. I raised an eyebrow suspiciously, "trust me." I put the blindfold on and he led me to the Silver Manta Ray. In a few seconds we were off the ground, flying. At first there was an awkward silence, until I thought of something to talk about.

"So do I get a little hint of the place were going?" I asked smiling.

"How, about it's almost as big as Texas?" he asked, I could tell, smiling.

"Oh, that helps." I replied sarcastically which made him laugh. For the rest of the ride, which was 15 minutes, I guessed the different places it could have been. All were wrong, of course.

"Ok, I give up!" I threw my hands up in defeat.

"That's alright," Clay replied as the Silver Manta Ray landed. We got out and I landed on hard, pavement. Clay stood behind me and took that blindfold off. This was definately a surprise! My eyes widened and my mouth literally dropped. I never thought that people's mouth's actually dropped.

"Are we..." I started when Clay nodded, smiling. There in front of my stood a tall building, among many tall buildings, with the Wicked billboard on the side. Clay had taken me to see Wicked in New York City! I walked over to him and gave him a huge hug.

"This has got the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me," I whispered in his ear, "thank you so much!" I gave him a quick peck on the cheek and made him blush a deep shade of red, which made me smile.

"Um…" he stuttered. I assumed he was going to say 'you're welcome' or 'my pleasure, lil' lady'. I grabbed his hand and ran toward the theater. Before we were inside, I could've sworn that I saw a bird circling around above us.

When the show started I grabbed his hand and smiled at him, quickly looking into his sky, blue eyes. He looked back me and smiled back. I still couldn't believe I was there, seeing Wicked, with Clay! I couldn't have been happier.Of course, I knew all the songs, but I was even better hearing them on stage. By the time it was over, I was almost crying. The finale was so sad and great at the same time. When the show was over, Clay and I, walked out of the theater and just kept walking down 'Broadway'.

"Tonight has been so much fun!" I said for probably the millionth time.

"I had a feeling 'Wicked' was a good choice." He smiled. I stopped walking which made him stop walking, just as I hoped. I leaned in so my face was only a few inches away from his.

"Tonight is fun because I'm with you." I whispered before I did the boldest thing I've ever done in my life. I leaned in farther and kissed Clay. Clay was really surprised and I could've sworn that there were fireworks. I heard a loud bang and realized there really were fireworks! We both turned our heads to see flashes of red and pink light exploding in the sky. This made us both laugh; this was definitely a perfect date! On the trip back home, we talked about 'Wicked'. I knew I would love it because I was already obsessed with it but Clay loved it too, surprisingly.

"You know that song, 'I'm Not That Girl'? Isn't that so sad?" I asked. Clay nodded.

"But at least the lil' lady gets the guy in the end." He stated.

"True," I agreed.

When we got back to the temple, we both put the Wu back in the vault and walked into the part of the temple where our "rooms" are. We stopped in front of my room where I smiled at Clay and said: "I know I haven't said this much, but I really had fun tonight." Clay smiled and blushed. I leaned in and kissed him again, this time he wasn't as surprised. When I broke the kiss, Clay whispered, "I reckon that tonight was as perfect as you." Oh my God, he was soooo sweet! I smiled and said goodnight before I walked into my room and fell fast asleep on my "bed". I guess I didn't realize how tired I was! Or that my window was open.

As soon as I was asleep, I was dreaming. I looked around and saw that I was on the same stage that 'Wicked' was on. I saw Clay who was dressed as Fiyero and some blond girl as Galinda standing on the bridge that was there, during the "I'm Not That Girl" scene, holding hands. That is not cool! Clay is mine! I was about to run up there when I noticed that I had green hands!

"Oh My God! I'm Green!" I yelled in shock.Then I realzied that if there was a Fiyero and a Galinda, then I must be Elphaba. I looked around again and saw that no one was moving. Time absolutely stood still.

"We're waiting for you sweet pea." I heard a strange, yet familiar voice call out to me. I walked over to the edge of the stage and saw a bean in the conductor's spot. I heard Master Fung and the other monks speak of a "Hanibal Bean", so I assumed that this was that evil bean. I mean, really, how many evil beans are there in the world?

"Are you," I paused, "Hanibal Bean?" He smiled evilly back at me, confirming what I already guessed.

"What are you doing in my dreams?" I asked and then I pointed at the frozen Clay and blond girl and asked, "What does this dream mean anyway?"

"You will find out eventually," he stated mysteriously as my dream started to fade, "it is after all your destiny."

"Destiny's the last word I want to hear!" I managed to say before everything turned black. My eyes opened and I saw the ceiling of the room.

"Great, more weird dreams." I mumbled to myself. I suddenly felt a cold, wind blow by me. I looked up and saw my window open. I walked over and saw something flying off into the distance. It might have been a bird but I wasn't sure. I closed the window, but when I saw what was on my hand I felt even colder then I did when my window was open.

"Shit!" I whispered, because there on my finger was 'The Seven Deadly Sings Ring', glowing green.
