Well, here is my sequel to "The Scarecrow's Baby"! Now, many of you will find the storyline to be somewhat similar to that of my first story. There are also some major differences as well though. I have introduced some new OCs in this first chapter, as well as another Oz character that was not in the original movie, but in the books/sequels to "Wizard of Oz". Sorry if I'm not saying much. It's just that this is the very first chapter and I don't want to give too much away. I WILL say that this is an mpreg story, obviously. Like I said during the introductions to the chapters in my previous stories - If you do not care much for mpreg, then just don't read it. Anyways, on with the story!

Chapter 1: Tin Man's Good News

Just one day after Scarecrow gave his son, Tincrow to Glinda, Dorothy, Toto, Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion are all taking a walk together. Tin Man starts to feel a little bit ill and is looking a little bit green, which is very unusual for a man made out of tin. "Scarecrow, I'm feeling a bit ill. I hope I'm not coming down with something." he said to his friend Scarecrow, who replied, "Well, I'll take you back to the Wizard of Oz and then he can take you-" but before he could finish, Tin Man started to throw up. "Oh, Tin Man! Are you all right?!" said Dorothy after Tin Man was finished being sick. "Yeah. I'm fine." he said weakly. Toto whimpered and looked up at Tin Man. "Tin Man. Maybe you're expecting, like Scarecrow had been!" said Cowardly Lion. "Maybe, but sometimes we can't exactly be sure." said Tin Man, thinking that he could also have the flu. So everybody went off to see the Wizard. When they got there, the Wizard was surprised to see them. "Back so soon?" he asked everyone. "Yes." said Tin Man. "Well, why is that? Do you want Tincrow back?" asked the Wizard. "No, no!" said Scarecrow. "Why we are here is because Tin Man isn't feeling too well, and we wanted to see if maybe you could drop him off at Dr. Skeleton's." "Oh! Gladly! Come with me Mr. Tin Man!" the Wizard said, taking Tin Man with him to see Dr. Skeleton.

After the Wizard had dropped Tin Man off at Dr. Skeleton's office, Dr. Skeleton tested Tin Man to see what was the matter with him, and as a matter of fact, he was pregnant! "Oh, boy! I can't wait to tell Mr. Scarecrow!" the Tin Man said with excitement. Just then, a girl, who like Dr. Skeleton, looked more like an animated character than a real person, walked into Dr. Skeleton's office. She looked like a scarecrow with a pumpkin head, eyelashes, big white eyes with pupils, (which is strange for a pumpkin or jack o lantern because they usually have pitch black eyes), shoulder-length wavy brown hair, no stem on her head, a white ruffled shirt, a black skirt, and black and white striped stockings. "Who is this?" asked Tin Man. "This, is my friend, Molly Pumperdink!" said Dr. Skeleton. "Molly! This is one of my clients, Mr. Tin Man." "It's good to meet you," said Molly. "You, too." said Tin Man. Molly looked at him and asked, "If you don't mind me asking, why are you seeing the doctor?" Tin Man laughed a little. "Oh I don't mind at all, you see, I'm pregnant!" said the Tin Man joyfully. Molly laughed. "How awkward. I've never heard of such thing." she said. "Ask your mother or father. Maybe they know." said Tin Man. "All right, I'll do that." said Molly. "Hey, take good care Mr. Tin Man! And take good care of your baby when it is born, too!" "All right! Take care yourself!" said Tin Man. After Molly left, Tin Man said, "She seems pretty cute." "Yes, she's a lovely one." said Dr. Skeleton. "I once knew her older brother, Finn. He was killed by the Wicked Witch of the East." "That's sad." said the Tin Man. "Yes, it is." Dr. Skeleton agreed. "Well, let's get back to examining you and your baby." "Sounds good!" said Tin Man. "I'll run the same tests that I ran on Mr. Scarecrow." said Dr. Skeleton. "Okay." Said Tin Man. So Dr. Skeleton ran several exams and made the startling discovery that Tin Man's baby didn't contain very much tin and that he had the traits of a scarecrow. "Ooh, Scarecrow must be the other father!" said Tin Man, buzzing with excitement. "I think he most definitely is!" said Dr. Skeleton. "I sure can't wait to share my exciting news with him!" said Tin Man as he grinned from ear to ear. "I'm going now. I'll see you soon!" said Tin Man. "Good luck, Mr. Tin Man! Say hello to Mr. Scarecrow for me!" said Dr. Skeleton. "Don't worry! I will!" said Tin Man as he left Dr. Skeleton's office.

Meanwhile, at Molly's home, Molly was talking with her parents. Molly's mother looked a lot like Molly, but with grayish shoulder-length wavy hair and she wore a blue dress with an apron. Molly's father, who was also a scarecrow with a pumpkin head, had a beard, wore a straw hat, and wore a red flannel shirt with trousers, depicting a farmer-like appearance. Unlike female pumpkin headed scarecrows, Molly's father had a stem on the top of his head. Molly was telling them how she met a man made out of tin who was actually pregnant. Like all male"Wow! That is amazing!" Molly's mother, Patsy Pumperdink said, shocked that a male could actually get pregnant. "Well, I wonder if your father would know how males get pregnant." said Patsy. "I don't know. What about it, Father? Do you know how a male can become pregnant?" said Molly. Molly's father, Harold just stared at her like she was crazy. "It's true. I promise." Molly said. "I have absolutely no clue, but we do live in Oz where anything strange and unusual can happen." said Harold. "Well, I'd like to know." said Molly, as she started to help her mother prepare dinner.

Meanwhile back at the Emerald City, Scarecrow was talking with Glinda. "So, how is Tincrow doing?" he asked her. "Oh, he's quite healthy. He's with the wizard now. I left him with the Wizard because I wanted to talk to you. Would you like to see him?" she asked Scarecrow. "Oh, naw! That's all right!" said Scarecrow. Just then, Tin Man came running towards them. "Scarecrow! Glinda! Guess what?!" he said excitedly and out of breath. "Hmm, let me guess. You're pregnant!" the Scarecrow said. "Yep! And you're the other father!" said Tin Man. Scarecrow jumped. "Hooray!" he said. "But wait!" "What's wrong?" said Tin Man. "Will I have to watch over our new baby when you need a break?" asked Scarecrow. "Why of course you will! You're my baby's other daddy! That's your job!" said the Tin Man. "Well, I'm a little bit concerned because of what happened with me and Tincrow yesterday." said Scarecrow. "Yesterday? What happened yesterday?" Tin Man said, confused. "You know." said Scarecrow. "Oh, yes! The poo-poo!" he recalled after Scarecrow reminded him about what had happened the previous morning when Tincrow's bottom hatch had automatically opened up and a flood of poo came out and stunk up Scarecrow's whole house. "Well, I think you can survive taking care of my baby. Who knows? Maybe he won't be as bad as Tincrow." "Maybe..." said Scarecrow. "Just keep your mind open! Mr. Tin Man might be right. Maybe his new baby won't be as bad as Tincrow was." chimed in Glinda.

All done with the 1st chapter! Next chapter, as many of you readers will probably assume, does involve the birth of Tin Man's baby. I picked out yet another clever name for this baby as well. Hopefully, the 2nd chapter should be up within the next few days...
