The pain increased and he fell to the floor with a thud. The last thing he saw was Elphaba's body lying beside him...

Elphaba opened her eyes and the memories before made tears form in her eyes, and she felt a shot of depression fill her body. She had wanted someone special but life for her wasn't fair, and what was supposed to be special had been destroyed by some unknown stranger. What she truly wanted was Fiyero.

She turned her head and gasped at the sight of Fiyero, a knife sticking out of his stomach. This made her lip start to tremble. She sat up in great pain and dragged herself to Fiyero's body, "Fiyero," she croaked, her voice wearing out. "Fiyero please," she screamed, tears freely running down her face leaving nasty burn marks.

She had to get Fiyero to safety; her eyes searched the alley. She tried to pick him up but the sudden weakness in Elphaba's body made it a problem.

She sighed. She was going to lose him. The look of his deathly pale face made her sick to her stomach. Suddenly she spotted a passing student, "Help please!" Elphaba cried, and the student turned and ran over to Fiyero and the green girl, "Please help! He needs help." The student nodded at the green girls request and the two walked with Fiyero in the students arms over to the infirmity.

After the nurses had taken Fiyero in examination, Elphaba found herself wondering, thinking maybe it was a dream of her getting raped – yes, a dream none of this had happened. But a nurse interrupted her thoughts, "Excuse me, could you tell us what happened?"

Elphaba cleared her throat, "Well I... I was attacked, and I guess Fiyero tried to defend me from the attackers but must of gotten hurt. I didn't see any of it; I was unconscious."

The nurse gave Elphaba a look of concern, "I think it would be best if you got examined, too."

Elphaba sighed and followed the nurse.

It had been over half an hour of the nurse examining her and she was worried that, the "nightmare" of her being raped would become true if the nurse finished examining her.

The nurse sighed and drew a chair to Elphaba, "You have some broken bones. And I'm sorry to say this but you were..." she took a deep breath before continuing, "you were raped." Elphaba felt a sick to her stomach; it was true. She closed her eyes and let one tear fall down her face. The nurse rubbed her forearm comfortingly, "I'm extremely sorry."

Elphaba swallowed, "Is Fiyero okay?" she asked feeling a lump forming in her throat.

The nurse replied, "Yes, but he will be asleep for some time. I think it's best for you to stay overnight and then tomorrow you can see him." The nurse looked down at Elphaba's torn dress, "Let me get you a hospital gown. The nurse walked out of the room.

She felt tears forming in her big brown eyes, she turned over onto her side and cried herself to sleep.

The nurse came in and rested a hand on Elphaba's shoulder, and the future wicked witch jumped in shock, with a look of panic on her face. "Please don't hurt me," she whispered. When she finally realized where she was, she broke down in tears. She felt disgusting; she felt dirty. How could someone do something so horrible to her?

The nurse sighed, "Here," she passed the hospital gown to Elphaba. "If you can't sleep, you're allowed to visit your little friend now." When Elphaba nodded and just stared at the hospital gown, the nurse sat on the bed and looked concernedly at Elphaba, "I know it's really hard, and you may never mentally heal from this, but life will get better."

Elphaba shook her head, "But I was only born to feel pain and suffer through life. I have never had anything happy in my life, not since… Fiyero. But now it's all my fault that he's in that state - he might even die." Elphaba cried and the nurse hugged her tight, Elphaba buried her head into the nurse's shoulder. "It's just so unfair" Elphaba whispered.

The nurse rubbed her back comfortingly, "If it makes you feel better I'll watch over you tonight okay?" She offered softly, and Elphaba nodded. "Now come on, let's get you changed," the nurse said. "Do you want me to do it for you or do you want to do it yourself?" She looked at Elphaba's face for an answer and knew Elphaba wasn't really with it at the moment. She was wracked in her own sadness. The nurse took Elphaba's dress off carefully and replaced it with the hospital gown and then laid Elphaba down in the bed and tucked her in. "Try to get some sleep" she said, and sat on a chair watching Elphaba.
