Nessa has survived the house that had fallen on her. Elphaba is gone, and Nessa is left in the arms of Glinda. But nothing is quite the same. But Nessa begins to wonder if Elphaba is really dead, or if everyone just likes to believe that way. Post-musical, some Fiyeraba. Rated T to be safe.

Nessa's POV

Everyone freeezes. It is clear someone broke in. The footsteps get louder. The bedroom door is burst open. Three guards run into the room. They charge at Elphaba and point their swords at her.

"We have you now!", one yelled. They pinned her to the wall. I hear Elphaba struggling to breathe.

"Any last words?", one asks mockingly.

"If you want to kill me, then fine", she says,eerily calm. "But you don't know the full story. "

I'm struggling to breathe now. One guard draws back his dagger.

"Elphie!", I hear Glinda scream.

I snap out of my trance.

"No!", I scream at the top of my lungs. The room becomes silent.

"If you need to kill someone, then it's me. I have done way worse things in a year than Elphaba has done in a lifetime. Just please, save her", I beg, tears welling up in my eyes.

The guards let go of Elphaba, and walk torwards me.

"Oh look, the little cripple is sticking up for her sister", one sneers.

I am thrown against a wall.

"Nessa!", Elphaba screams.

I am kicked in the ribs. I can't fight back. A guard takes out his sword and swipes it at me. A great amount of pain is inflicted upon my side. I bring my hand to it. A sticky, red liquid seeps through my fingers. I hear a man scream. The guards are pulled away from my body. A tall, slim man knocks them to the floor. I recognize him immediately.

"Fiyero!", Elphaba screams. I am losing consciousness. I hear Elphaba chanting some incomprehensible words, and then everything goes dark.

Elphaba's POV

The lightbulbs burst. Blinding light flashes before my eyes. The light dies down, and the guards disappear. Nessa is curled up on the floor, unconscious, and Fiyero is against the wall, moaning. Glinda had run out of the room and speed-dialed 911. I run to Fiyero.

"Fiyero! What happened?", I ask.

He coughs up blood and collapses. A large wound covers the back of his head. I realize everyone thinks I'm dead, which means I will have to hide back outside when the paramedics come. I tell Glinda, and she nods, wiping tears from her eyes. A few minutes later the paramedics arrive. I quickly slide out of the window, praying that everyone will be alright.

Glinda's POV

It is a few hours later. I am trying to think of a way to contact Elphaba. The doctor announced that Nessie will be alright, but they are not sure Fiyero will live. I keep calling the phone back at my house, but I'm not getting an answer. It is about one in the morning now. I decide to leave to check on Elphaba. I step into the carriage and start my long journey home.

Sorry? *Arms self with sloths and hides behind laptop just in case people come at me*
