"Elphaba, he's…he's…he's your brother."
Elphaba stared at Idina. "Haha, real funny. Seriously, what does the paper say?" She stuck out her hand for the paper, all the while darting looks at the sleeping Fiyero.
Idina looked at Jae. "Go ahead." The Broadway star handed her the paper.
"Bloodlines…" Elphaba murmured, skimming through the paper.
Wizard
Son of Mr. and Mrs. Poindexter (from Earth??)
Morrible
Daughter of Sir Morrible and Miss Malady
Jae
Son of the Wizard and Morrible
Elphaba
Daughter of the Wizard and ??
Must find out who.
All written in Madam Morrible's crisp, neat handwriting.
Elphaba raised her head and stared at Jae. Idina finally raised her voice. "Jae, your bloodlines stink. How did you come out so good?"
"Because my bloodlines stink." Jae grinned at Idina before a loud crashing noise was heard downstairs. With Elphaba motioning them to go down, the threw open the door and disappeared.
"You leave Cheno out of this!"
The Witches of Oz kids had formed a ring around Allen and Nicole, who had been fighting for a good five minutes now. All because Allen had said, "Elphaye."
"Well, she's interfering where she doesn't belong!" Allen ducked, missing Nicole's fist. "She should just let everybody follow their hearts!" And he tackled her.
Mikayla gasped. "I'M HER BODYGUARD, NITWIT!" And she jumped onto Allen's back, pulling his hair.
On the sidelines, Kaylee and Holli high fived. "Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Allen tripped, falling onto the fallen Nicole, who promptly began thrashing.
Tiana groaned. "Oh, yeah. I'm her other bodyguard." With that, she leapt into the fray.
Carley sighed from the sidelines, and took a deep breath. "Stop!" She wiggled her fingers at them.
"Stop!" She waved her whole arms.
"STOP!" She got up and did the Elphie dance.
But they wouldn't fly apart like her magical powers dictated they should.
"WOULD YOU ALL JUST STOP IT!" At Elise's monkey screech, everybody flew apart, Allen and Tiana crashing into the ceiling and causing the chandelier to fall before falling to the floor – to land on Kaylee and Holli.
"Whoa."
The group untangled themselves, shocked into silence. Jae and Idina came darting into the room a second later, looking around in shock.
"Okay…" Cheno darted in behind them, followed by Kerry. "How did you all manage this?"
"She did it, she did it!" Nicole, Kaylee, and Holli all pointed towards where the human-monkey was fluttering nervously.
"I would have thought Carley…" Idina blinked. "Elise, you know who your father is, right?"
"Um, yeah. I found videos of my, um, making by, uh, accident and was never able to look him in the eye again… besides, I look like him. Well, not now, but you get the point."
Idina frowned, looking at Carley. And then at Nicole. And then Mikayla. "I think you have to have magical abilities to control a magic broom…"
"No wonder you had problems, Mikayla," Nicole muttered under her breath, rubbing her ribs and glaring at Allen. The battered Wicked fan stuck his tongue out at her, rubbing the bump on his head.
"No. I think… you all… have the ability." Idina sat down where she stood. "This is getting complicated. First we have Jae, a child of the Wizard and Morrible-"
"He's a Wizzible child!" Kaylee started laughing. "Omigod, I love this place."
"Wizzible..?" Jae raised a brow.
"Rumor and speculation, innuendo – outuendo – leads many to believe that there was more to the line, "He will do /much/ for you," than meets the eye." Nicole beamed at them all. "And now it's true!"
"Ewwwww." Holli wrinkled her nose. "That's… gross."
"You're telling me," muttered the Captain of the Guard, snorting.
"But why do you all have powers-"
"Oh! I know." Tiana grinned. "We're so obsessed with the musical that we've become spiritually close to Elphaba and poof! We get her magic in dire needs! Like when Carley cast that spell… or Elise right now. Allen was getting beat up bad."
"Was not."
"Was too."
"Was not."
"Was t-"
"Shut up!" Elphaba whirled in, her black dress swirling around her ankles. "What is this about you all being spiritually close to me? I don't want to be spiritually close to any of you hooligans."
"OH! That makes sense! Idina would then have the powers-"
"Because she originated the role of Elphaba-" Allen picked up from where Nicole had left off, Mikayla interrupting.
"And they're the closest emotionally-"
"And personality wise!" Kaylee and Holli, who had said the last things together, high fived each other.
"Okay…" Elphaba sighed. "I'll accept that. So Fiyero's back, everybody has magical powers, all the respective couples are reunited-"
Nicole grinned triumphantly, sticking /her/ tongue out at Allen.
"And we've put a temporary halt on the Wizard's plans. A fairly good day."
"Shoot." Everybody looked at Kaylee.
"What?" Mikayla blinked. "It's been a good day."
"I know. But that means it's the eye of the storm."
"WWLD?" Everybody looked at Nicole.
"What in the name of goodness is that supposed to mean?" Glinda, who had managed to hide behind everybody in her poofy dress, looked around at the group.
"What would Lily do? What commotion would she cause? Because-"
And that's when, upstairs, Chelsea screamed. "Morrible-outside-guards-Wizard-she doesn't look too happy-they have guns!"
"That's what's about to happen next." Nicole grinned. "So who's ready for a fight?"
Beautifullywicked
"They're WHAT?" Glinda exclaimed looking at Chelsea who frantically nodded at her. "Sweet Lurline..." she muttered to herself hearing the noise.
"So..." Tiana said looking around, "What do we do now?" she asked looking around at everybody, "I mean... we can't exactly just stand here." she said and they heard banging on the door, which they had barricaded, but that was slowly breaking.
All the WoO members, actresses and everybody else gathered in the middle of the room ready to face whatever came through that door. It was them and one gun, against a bunch of guards and a whole hades of a lot of guns. And then the doors burst open.
Before anything else JT and Fiyero came running out, guns blazing.
"Fiyero?" Elphaba said looking at him shocked, "Are you... okay?" she asked looking worried
I'm fine!" he yelled as he started shooting people down. Suddenly, everything seemed to be happening in slow motion. Glinda watched as JT fell, blood flowing from a wound to his abdomen. "No!" she yelled, running to his side. At the same time, Morrible came striding through the door, an evil smirk plastered across her face; however, the look was wiped off her face as she fell to the floor, shot in the head by Fiyero. The guards froze for a moment as their leader hit the ground, but quickly raised their guns to return fire. Suddenly, all the WoO members leaped forward, yelling as they moved towards the guards. The guards were pushed back by an invisible force, so far that they found themselves outside the door. Slowly regaining their footing, the guards gazed at the WoO members as if they had three heads, then ran for their lives.
Nobody moved for the next minute, and the only things you could hear were everybody's out of breath breathing, and JT moaning in pain. Elphaba slowly turned around to face them, "How in Oz did you do that?" she asked in disbelief.
"I guess it's kind of just what we were talking about earlier, we all just kind of... what would you call it, felt it I guess." Elise said quietly shrugging.
"Yeah, that has to be it," Mikayla agreed slowly nodding, "but... Sweet Oz!" she suddenly cried, "JT! Glinda, Oh Oz are you all right?" she said rushing over to them, followed by everyone else.
"Elphie... Elphie do something!" she pleaded with her best friend, "He's dying... I mean, it can't be good if he got shot there! There are so many internal organs shoved in the middle!"
"Shh Glinda... it's okay. Let's get him upstairs..." she said motioning for a few of the other actresses for help. While they were getting them situated she looked over to Taye who was walking over to her, "Could you... er, go bury... uh..." she nodded her head to where Morrible was laying.
He quickly nodded and he and Fiyero walked over to pick Morrible up and bring her outside.
It had been 4 hours now since JT had passed out from the pain of being shot. Elphaba had been able to get the bullet out, and stop some of the blood, but nobody was sure yet on what would happen. Glinda had been at his side every minute asking Elphaba every 5 seconds if there was anything she could do, or if he was going to be okay.
JT stirred a bit, muttering something under his breath. "JT?" Glinda said turning around from the window, to his lifeless figure laying on a bed.
"Glinda?" he asked turning to look at her, "That you?" he said weakly smiling.
Beautifullywicked
"JT!" Glinda said relieved, rushing over to his side, "You're awake! Oh thank Oz!" she said taking a seat next to his bed. "I've been so worried!" she said smiling at him.
JT looked up at her worried face, "Worried about me? Glinda..." he said shaking his head, "you shouldn't have... but how long have I been out?" he asked sitting up the best he could with a little help from Glinda. "Hopefully not too long."
"Oh, about 4 hours now... and you say I shouldn't be worried," she said shaking her head in disapproval but with a smile on her face. "But you displayed such braverism, fighting the guards like that!" she said pushing a strand of dark hair off his face, letting her hand linger there a little.
JT chuckled a bit, "Oh it was nothing Glin... I mean, I couldn't just stand there and let them hurt you..."
Glinda smiled down at him, "Still. But... are you all right? How are you feeling? Elphaba got the bullet out, but..." she trailed off not wanting to worry him, or herself for that matter.
"I'm fine... like I said, don't worry about me!" he said lightly taking her hand looking down at it. He smiled back up at her, "Well, I probably should get up now..." he said bringing his legs around to the side of his bed. Glinda helped him up and them almost tackled him in a hug.
"I'm just so glad you're okay." she said laying her head on his shoulder, her arms clasped tightly around him. She pulled back a little and looked into his face, with his dark hair falling around his eyes... his dark eyes, that were so easy to get lost in. And before she knew anything else their lips met.

"Hey Elphaba," Idina said walking up to the green witch sitting in her room looking over the Grimmerie.
"Oh hey there," she said turning around, and she smiled at the actress, "What's wrong?" she asked.
"Oh nothing!" Idina said smiling, "I just wanted to ask... well... what did you do to Morrible?" she said gazing curiously at Elphaba, "Because well, Taye told me that you never buried her..."
"Well... we sent her to Earth." she stated very matter of factly.
"You WHAT?" Idina said looking at Elphba, her jaw dropped.
"Yeah, well... we thought it would be better if we just got her out of Oz..." she said trailing off, when Idina just burst out laughing. "What?" Elphaba said confused by her reaction.
"Nothing! It was just... brilliant! It just sounds like something one of the fans would do," she said shking her head.
"Well..." Elphaba said shrugging innocently, "That's all I'll say," and she grinned.
"That is so not true!" Tiana said shaking her head at Nicole, "The Wizard of Oz Munchkin hair totally rules all!"
"Psht! You think? Come on! Picture Boq with hair like that... honestly." Mikayla said rolling her eyes, "They look MUCH better with perfectly normal Wicked hair!" she said arguing with Tiana and Nicole about Munchkin hair-do's.
Nicole burst out laughing. "Boq, with Wizard of Oz hair... that would be a sight!" she said catching her breath, "I guess... well I absolutely loathe how they look, but they are absolutely hysterical," Nicole said in all seriousness.
Megan was sitting with Ellen, and the two of them were watched the three of them having a very heated discussion about Munchkin hair and whether or not the Wizard of Oz Muchkin hair was better or the normal Wicked hair was. It was hard not to just burst out laughing any moment. at the sight of them.
"I think I'm going to go check on Glinda and JT," Ellen said quietly to Megan while getting up and walking over to the stairs.
"I bet they're together," Holli said grinning at Kaylee, "Wouldn't that be perfect?" she asked, "First Glinda has to marry the father, and now I bet she's with the son."
Ellen came running back down the stairs where upon all conversations stopped, "You do NOT want to go in there," Ellen said shaking her head, but laughing. "They're... umm... having a er... bonding moment." she said.
"I told you!" Holli said, and she and Kaylee high-fived.
