"Yero you can't be serious." Fiyero shook his head.
"What other choice do we have?" he told her. Elphaba frowned and turned to everyone in the room.
"Can you give me and Fiyero a moment?" All three of them nodded and walked silently out of the room and Elphaba turned to him.
"Fiyero there is no way we can beat them. They have an army and you can't even walk!" Elphaba regretted the words as soon as they came out of her mouth. She looked at his eyes that were averted to the ground.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean-" But what did she mean? It was the truth, he couldn't walk. But Elphaba would change that, she would find a spell. Fiyero shook his head.
"No, it's alright, I know what you mean." He told her but she could see sadness in his eyes. Elphaba grabbed his hand.
"I can't lose you again" she said with tears threatening to fall.
"Hey come on, that will never happen. I'm right here I'm not going to leave you." He reassured her. She smiled.
"Well then, what should we do about Morrible and the Wizard? They have an army." Fiyero sighed.
"Like Jakin said, we have to kill them, it's the only way. I'll think of a plan, I swear they won't get away with this. I won't let them get near you" Elphaba nodded, still a little unsure of what was going on inside of that brainless head of his.
Elphaba walked out to the hallway and brought Jakin, Glinda and Fiyero's father back in. All three of them sat back down and looked eager to hear what the two came up with. Fiyero spoke up.
"We are going to do it; we will get rid of them. I just need some time to think." He paused for a second, looking at the faces around them knowing they wouldn't stand a chance against an army. "We won't fight them, that's for sure." Jakin butted in.
"But sir, how will we kill them?" Fiyero looked at him, almost smiling at being called sir again.
"We'll invade the palace; get to them from the inside. Jakin, Glinda and I know it inside and out and they think Glinda's on there side. We can do this, but we all have to stick together." They all nodded in agreement. Fiyero continued; "Just give me a couple days to think of a plan. In the mean time, Jakin I want you to go back to Oz, act normal like you know nothing." Jakin nodded, he wouldn't tell anyone anything. He went to leave but he heard Fiyero call to him.
"And Jakin promise me that if they take you and torture you, tell them. I don't want this happening to you." Jakin was going to argue but he knew his former caption wouldn't back down.
"I will" he told him and exited the room. Fiyero turned to Glinda.
"Glinda, go back with Jakin. Try to find out how many guards are actually in the palace and try to figure out where Morrible and the Wizard are. Come back in three days" She smiled
"Ok, three days, got it." She said and left the room. Fiyero looked at his father.
"Dad, go to the Vinkus. Try something, anything, to hold the army off." Fiyero knew there wasn't much his father could do to stop them but stall.
"I'll try." His father said doubtfully and left the room as well. Fiyero looked at Elphaba and smiled. He motioned for her to come lay with him. She rolled her eyes but couldn't help the smile that crept on her lips as she lay down next to him. She rested her head on Fiyero's chest and wrapped her arm over his abdomen, but couldn't get that close thanks to her large bump on her stomach. Fiyero wrapped her arms tightly around her and kissed the top her head.
"I love you." she told him as she was drifting off to sleep. He kissed her head again.
"I love you too." he said she could practically hear him smile. She began to fall asleep when a thought came into her mind.
"Fiyero?" he called to him hoping he was awake.
"Yes love?" she took a deep breath.
"What if the baby is…" she trailed off, not able to finish her sentence.
"Green?" he finished for her. He felt her nod on his chest, he held her more tightly "I don't care Elphaba, I will love the baby as much as I love you. Why can't you see that you're beautiful? If this baby is green, I won't look at it any differently then I do you." Elphaba let out a breath that she didn't know she was keeping in. She remembered how her father hated her for her skin, and didn't want the same thing to happen to her child. It was clear that Fiyero would never do anything to hurt their child but there was always this thought lurking in the back of her mind. With that thought at rest she drifted to sleep. Elphaba woke up in the middle of the night, which was very unlikely for her. She realized she was still in Fiyero's tight embrace and looked at the clock, it was 3:28AM, why was she up? Then she felt it pain coming up her spine and her lower stomach and abdomen, she bit her lower lip to keep herself from crying out in pain. She sat up as the pain started to subside, hoping not to wake Fiyero. She sat there for a short while, thinking it was just a coincidence. She could not be in labor, it was too early, she still had another week. Soon she felt the pain again and couldn't help but let out a small whimper which immediately woke Fiyero up.
"Elphaba?" he asked, turning on the light. He took one look at Elphaba's face and was quickly alarmed. "Elphaba what's wrong, are you okay?" he asked her frantically. He sat up as much as he could before he started to feel dizzy.
"Yero I-" she was cut off from another wave of pain and she cried out. It was clear now that she was in labor. Fiyero bolted upright and ignored the pain and dizziness in his head. He began soothingly rub her back which made the pain die down a little.
"What is it Elphaba?" he asked again but in a calmer tone this time.
"The baby's coming Fiyero."
