The Wonderful Land Of Oz

Chapter 10: (Oz's Terrible Requests)

(Oz's Terrible Requests)

*June 11th, 1900*

*Emerald Palace*

*Day 7, Morning*

Scarecrow was taken by surprise at the beautiful angel as he was expecting the giant head whom Dorothy encountered as he began to speak.

"G-Good Morning, My name is Scarecrow and I came here to seek some of your wisdom or rather a brain so I could become smart and think for myself.." Scarecrow had introduced himself to Oz as the beautiful angel simply stared back with a serious expression.

"I already know who you are and what you seek. I'm running low on  time today so I will make this visit quickly. If you truly want brains then you must kill the Wicked Witch of the West and if you do, I shall give you some of my knowledge..." Oz had spoken back in a calm voice as Scarecrow simply looked down before looking up to object to the request.

"B-But, We don't have the power to kill her, I heard she's rather terrible! Dorothy has also spoken to me about this situation as well.." Scarecrow had objected as this made Oz shake their head in disappointment before speaking once more.

"I see, you and your little friends thought you guys were gonna come here and ask me to do these favors without any form of payment? You truly don't have any brains which is why I'm offering you this chance, Do you NOT want brains? Do you NOT want Dorothy to return home? Well, answer me" Oz had spoken back in a defensive tone of voice as these words made Scarecrow look down before shaking his head in denial as he wanted some brains and for Dorothy to go home.

"N-No! I do want Dorothy to go home and I do want some brains!" Scarecrow uttered back as he knew it was pointless to argue with Oz any further while the beautiful angel smiled.

"Good, now get out of my sight and don't come back here until you've defeated the Wicked Witch of the West, got it?' Oz had spoken back in a stern tone of voice as Scarecrow nodded his head in defeat as he turned around and walked away as the angel disappeared.

"Oh maan, Oz has told me the same thing that Dorothy had to endure, how could we ever defeat the Witch.." Scarecrow had spoken out in a sad tone of voice as he opened the doors to see his three friends jumping up in anticipation but unfortunately, Scarecrow had shaken his head in defeat as Dorothy and the others knew what happened.

"Oz told you the same thing as well, didn't he? I only killed the Witch of the East by accident so I don't know why Oz thinks we have the power to kill the other one..." Dorothy had asked Scarecrow as her friend nodded his head in agreement.

"I'm afraid so but when I met Oz, it wasn't a man but rather a beautiful woman but her personality was quite the same as you described it.." Scarecrow had responded back as this surprised Dorothy and the others as this was different than how Dorothy described Oz to be as Cowardly Lion began to speak.

"Maybe Oz was sick today and he had someone to fill him in however, whoever was filling him in decided to pull off a prank or something" Cowardly Lion had chimed in while Tin Woodman nodded his head in support.

"This might be the case. Either Oz changes forms or somebody was playing a trick but I think it's best to head back to our motel rooms until tomorrow.." Tin Woodman had spoken back to Cowardly Lion and everyone else as for the rest of the day, our heroes remained at the motel while thinking about their future encounter with the Wicked Witch of the West.

*Day 8, Morning*

*June 12th, 1900*

The next morning had arrived as it was Tin Woodman's turn to see Oz as the tin man walked through the corridors of the palace room while expecting to see either a giant head, an angel, or rather something unexpected as Tin Woodman was now standing in the exact same room that Dorothy and Scarecrow were at.
