Hello. This is my first self-written story after some translations. Please notice that i am no native speaker of English.
I only know the film 'The Wizard of Oz, but none of the books.
„Good morning, Toto. You wouldn't believe what I dreamed last night. It was Miss Gulch, she wanted to take you away from me, but you returned. Then we went to a fortune teller, who told me Aunt Em was ill of sadness. But when we returned here, a tornado pushed our house up in the sky. What a stupid dream! But, come on, let's make breakfast for Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. I'll just open the window."
When Dorothy did this, she screamed. What she saw outside was definetly not her farm, but a colorful garden full of strange-looking flowers and trees. She stepped out of the house and turned around in wonderment.
„Toto, I don't think that we are in Kansas anymore. Maybe my dream was no dream at all, and the tornado took us over the rainbow."
Suddenly, a beautiful woman in a white dress appeared right before her and explained that Dorothy was in fact in Munchkinland in the world of Oz. She also introduced herself as Glinda, the Good Witch of the North, and the Munchkins, who were funny little people and thanked Dorothy for defeating the Wicked Witch of the East. Only then, Dorothy saw the feet that lied exposed at the wall of her house. Before she could understand everything, another witch joined them, the Wicked Witch of the West. She wanted to take the dead witches' ruby slippers, but Glinda gave them to Dorothy and made the Wicked Witch her enemy, but, for the moment, powerless against her.
„You want to return home?" Glinda asked Dorothy afterwards. „Well, that could be a problem. But I know someone who could help you: the Wizard of Oz. To find him, you only have to follow this yellow brick road."
Dorothy did as she said, and the Munchkins watched her, repeating Glinda's words.
„Follow the yellow brick road."
„Follow the yellow brick road"
„Follow the yellow brick road""
„Stop!" Dorothy suddenly screamed. „That was one time too much. I can remember what is said to me without beeing told so every third second. It is enough, I am qite sure there are others who can help me. And, you know what? I hate the colour yellow. I will walk the red road. Maybe it will take me to somebody more competent than you and your wizard. Come on, Toto."
The Munchkins were so dismayed and shocked that they did not know what to do. They all looked to the place were Glinda had stood, but the witch had disappeared only moments ago. Finally, one Munchkin asked where the red brick road would lead to, and Dorothy could hardly understand the whispered answer.
„It leads to the South."
Sorry if Dorothy sound to agressive in this chapter. She is only overreacting because she can not understand what has happened. (And let's be honest. That the song 'Follow the yellow brick road' only consists of that one sentence is kind of annoying)
