The War for Oz( A Penn Zero Part Time Hero/ Dorothy Must Die crossover)

Talk Under the Stars

Takes place 3 days after the last chapter! Enjoy!!

Penn groaned as he collapsed to his bed and buried his head into his pillow. It had been three days since he agreed to kill Dorothy Gale. He knew what he was getting into once he agreed. He knew that the training would intense, but he didn't think that it would be this intense.

Now, that didn't mean that he wasn't doing well. On the contrary, Penn was improving greatly day after day. But, he just found the training a little too much at times. "Ugh. Why does this have to be so painful?" He asked to no one in particular. And not only he had to train daily , but he also had to find his spirit animal. "I mean, a spirit animal. Seriously?! Where am I supposed to find that?!" The redhead gave a deep breath. "You know what? I need some fresh air."

Getting up from the bed, Penn walked over to the attic. Once doing so, he opened a latch and went outside. Climbing to the top of the roof, the redhead sat down, pulling his legs close to his chest. "Ugh? Why does this have to be so complicated? Why?! I mean, sure Dorothy is a bitch, but does she really deserve death? What even happened to her?"

"Good evening, Penn Zero." A deep voice was heard, one that was alarmingly close to Penn. Not even thinking, he whipped around ready to punch who ever was going to sneak attack him, only too see something he couldn't believe. It was a Lion. A freaking lion was next to him. "The hell?" Penn muttered. He rubbed his eyes. "No. It couldn't be. Is this my spirit animal? If so, why does he look and sound like Mufasa form 'The Lion King?'" Indeed he was right. This Lion did look like the Lion King character.

"Surprised to see me, eh?" The lion asked. Penn nodded. "Are you my spirit animal?" He asked. "Yes. I heard that you were the chosen one to defeat Dorothy." "Yep, that's me." Penn said. "Every well then." The lion looked at the stars. "This reminds me of the time where I talked to my son, Simba, about him being the ruler of Pride Rock." The lion said. "Wait. You mean you're actually the Mufasa?" Penn asked. The lion nodded. "Sweet Jesus, there's Disney character in front of me." Penn said in shock.

"Rather shocking eh?" The lion asked. "Well. Kind of. I mean, I traveled around the multiverse and saw stranger things-" "The show or the phrase?" Mufasa asked. "The phase. Though the show's really good. But still, I actually never thought that I would actually meet a Disney character. Let alone one who is dead." Penn said. "Understandable." The lion said.

"Okay. So, why are you my spirit animal?" He asked. "Well, us lions are known to be wise and powerful leaders. You may be a child and not royalty, but you have the heart and strength of one." The lion said. "Yeah right." Penn scoffed. "Oh really? Well, then." The lion looked around and noticed a brick wall. "Punch that wall." It said. "Seriously? You know I could possibly break my hand, right?" "Just try it."

With a sigh, Penn got up and walked over to the wall. "Why is there even a wall here?" He asked. "I have no idea." The lion said. "Do I really have to do this?" Penn asked. "To quote what I heard once: do or do not. You must not try." "Using a Star Wars quote on me, eh? Okay you got me there." He said. Taking a deep breath, the redhead closed his eyes. "Now remember. Let it go." The lion said. Turning his left hand into a fist, Penn let out a war cry and punched the wall as hard as he could.

Opening his eyes, Penn was surprised to see that he actually made quite the damage to the wall. He nearly created a hole on the wall. "Woah." He quietly said. "See. I told you that you had the capability of being a leader." It said. The redhead looked down at his bruised hand. He cracked a small smile. "Yeah. Guess you're right." He said. He snapped his fingers form his other hand and a bandage roll appeared. "Ah. Getting good with magic, huh?" The lion asked with a smirk. "Yeah. If this keeps up, I'll be facing Dorothy at no time." Penn said as he wrapped the bandage around his left hand. The roll disappeared once he was done, and Penn went back to sit down with the lion.

"So, does your girlfriend and friend know about this?" It asked. Penn sighed. "No. But I'm telling them in the morning. But I'm not sure how they will react." He said. "If they really care for you, they will understand what you have to do." Mufasa said. "You're right." Penn said. Then, Penn remembered something that was on his mind for a while. "Say, do you by any chance know what happened to Glinda and Toto? I already know that the scarecrow, tin man, and cowardly lion are evil, but what about those two?" He asked.

"Yes. I do know. Toto was transformed into a wild, giant three headed beast by Dorothy." It said. "Wait. He has three heads?" Penn asked. "Yes. As for Glinda, she was apparently evil all the long. She killed her twin sister, Glamora and took over her body." "Glinda had a twin?!" The redhead asked. The lion nodded. "Anyways. Before you kill Dorothy, you must take care of the other five." It said. "Wait. What about the wizard? Is he part of this as well?" "He was, but Dorothy killed him." Penn let out a low whistle. "So. What do you think I should do?" He asked Mufasa. "Well, that's for you to figure out." It said.

Penn sighed. "I think that I should fight the other five. I overheard Gert say that I needed to kill them anyways, so I should get it over with." Penn said. The lion nodded. "You're correct. In order to kill Dorothy, you must need three special things: the scarecrow's brain, the Tim man's heart, and the cowardly lion's courage. Then, you will be ready to fight Dorothy." Penn nodded. "Okay. Thank you Mufasa." Penn said, slightly bowing down. "No problem. Just remember that I will be here when you need me." The lion said, touching Penn's left arm, creating a tattoo of a lion in his arm. Penn looked up and saw that Mufasa was gone. "Well. Now I have a cool tattoo. Can't wait for Boone and Sashi to freak out."

With a smile on his face, he went down stairs back to his room. He changed into his pajamas and fell onto the bed. Penn looked over to his alarm clock. 2:00. "I need my rest. I have a big day tomorrow." He said. Getting under the covers, he closed his eyes and fell asleep. "Dorothy. If you can hear me, let the war for Oz begin."
