Back In Kansas (Dorothy Must Die Series Fanfiction)

Chapter Three : The Search for Order

Nox point of view
...

I stumbled and felt my legs grow weaker by the second. I grabbed hold of anything I could, I was disgusted by the thought of all magic in Oz being gone.

Dorothy and her comrades had taken the magic to Kansas.

I slid down the dark gray wall for strength, I couldn't believe this.

I waited until I regained strength and pushed myself up, I couldn't afford to lose Am-

I nearly choked.

What are you thinking?

I cursed and scolded myself.

I tried hard not to remember what Amy had become at the wall but the image haunted me.

I wished she wouldve been wiser with her magic.

I shook my head and brought myself to think of Mombi and The others.

I walked into the abandoned building and looked around, there weren't any signs of life.

Not even a mouse.

I sighed a deep, longing sigh and walked along, my back slouched.

If Gert could see me now.

I felt warmth at the corners of my eyes and forced myself to stay calm and collected.

I needed to find a way to Kansas.

••••••

Amy's Point of View.
...

I stared in shock, my knees buckled and tiny beads of sweat started to form on my forehead.

"Amy?" Said a small, familiar voice.

I nodded, as though she didn't know it was me.

"Mom." I finally forced out.

She ran toward me and I braced myself.

I couldn't be wasting time.

I quickly hugged her back and told her she needed to run from me and Dorothy.

Her mouth dropped open when i said Dorothy, clearly she knew.

The plaid dress, the red heels, she figured it out pretty quick.

"But- but Amy I haven't seen you in months." Her voice wavered as she managed to get out that last part.

I winced.

My mother might have been a shitty mom, but she's all I've got.

"Let's go," I started, sounding more confident than I felt. "We need to get somewhere safe."

Just as I finished, something hit me.
