Oz: The Great and Powerful with A Twist
Prologue:
A year has past since the events of the defeat of the wicked witches. The land of Oz was full and peaceful again. The EmeraldCity rightful ruler Glinda was doing her duties. Just like her father before her restoring faith and goodness in Oz.
She walked down the gleaming green streets. One thought crossed her mind. It was Theodora if she hadn't become wicked would she see the good in people that she once did.
If she had manage to change her ways and as Oscar had promised to let her return. Glinda hated Evanora for what she had done to everyone. Her father by poisoning him, the way she treated Theodora. And how Evanora had ruined the people's lives.
But all that was done and dusted but still that same thought again.
''What if you had see past your wicked ways'' she said under her breathe.
Glinda stared up at the palace where Oscar resided. She wondered what Oz was thinking in his mind during the late nights. Did he feel the same way as she did about all of this.
Glinda knew he never said much about it. That was him nowadays a quiet loner who spent his days in the castle.
Probably he felt heartbroken by the fact he thought he had ruined Theodora's life by turning her into the Wicked Witch of The West. No she knew Evanora had push that blame onto him as she was the one at fault.
Strangely enough she overheard some guards saying they had seen Oz slip into the night. Where was he going in a hurry and to get back so no one would notice. She thought if she confront him.
She headed inside through the heavy doors into the throne room.
''Oz we need to talk'' she said as Oscar appeared before her.
He was still the handsome man she had first saw when he entered The Dark Forest. Not a hair out of place as he had the same spring in his step.
''Yes Glinda may I help you'' he said.
''I am worried about you it seems you have change'' she said.
''Oh Glinda I am still the same old me'' he said grinning at her.
''I know but'' said Glinda as she wasn't sure.
He ushered her out the doors. After their talk Glinda had notice the change getting worst. A few days more one dark night Clinda had heard some knocking at the door. Confused but felt she knew someone needed help. She emerge from her bed slowly out her room down the stairs.
''Hello anyone there'' she asked with a chill down her spine.
Seeing no one there she was about to headin but she caught the sound of a baby cry. She stared down at the blankets in it was a baby girl. She had dark hair and dark eyes.
''Oh you poor thing you need a place to stay'' said Glinda.
She felt her heart ache wondering who would abandon their own child. Taking the child inside she didn't know what to do. Maybe she thought Oz might have the answer.
So during the years Oz and Glinda took the child in as their own raising her as their daughter. Oz named her Olivia Zelda Marie Amelia or Ozma which she was known by the people of Oz. All the time growing up Glinda taught her how to learn and use good magic. And the ways of life in Oz. Oz himself show Ozma the world of illusion and trickery.
Time had passed as it was Ozma's eighteenth birthday as she had grown into a fine young beauty. She lay in her bed as she dreamed she was flying over buildings and land.
''Oh Ozma, Ozma it is time to get up'' came Glinda waking her up from her dream.
''Hmm yes mother'' said Ozma as she got out of bed.
In truth she wished to snuggle back under the covers and continue her dream.
''I guess important matters have to come first'' she muttered to herself.
She walked to her vanity by the window. She sat as she brushed through her long strands of hair. They stayed so still down her back and over her shoulders. Also her eyes were full of hope and discovery.
Her body itself was that of a nature beauty with it's curves. Glinda told her over the years that she was a young bud blooming into an elegant flower.
After she was done as she went to get dressed. Her usual clothes was a long gleaming white dress that came to her feet with soft white shoes and a diamond collar.
She stared out her window. Everywhere was the same green buildings, green streets and lanes, green statues everything was green.
''I guess that was why it was called the Emerald City but what if one gets tired of the same thing'' said Ozma putting on her glittering tiara on her head.
In her mind she wished to leave the land of Oz and discover another world. One where she felt she truly belonged. And where everywhere was a new adventure.
''Princess Ozma'' cried a voice snapping her out of her thoughts.
''Oh China Girl I seem to be a bit distracted today'' said Ozma staring down at her vanity.
''You are always distracted Ozma this isn't like you why not we play in the garden together like old times'' said China Girl.
''I like that how about now'' said Ozma.
They had to sneak past the guards making sure not to make a noise. They entered the garden. The two friends beganto play as they laughed.
China Girl had treated Ozma like a sister even if she was bigger in height.
After they had tired out as Ozma laid on the grass with China Girl in her hands.
''China Girl do you feel there was something you were missing'' asked Ozma.
''Like what'' said China Girl.
''Oh nothing'' said Ozma as she remained quiet.
''You are like Oz I don't believe you two didn't fly in that balloon'' said China Girl.
''China Girl I would never run'' said Ozma angrily as she felt her temper rise inside of her.
China Girl didn't reply as she shook in fear in her hands. Ozma thought this wasn't like her friend. What did she had to be afraid of her. China Girl settled as Ozma was curiously by what China Girl had previously said.
''China Girl what is a balloon'' she asked.
''Oh it is strange basket attached to this large round thing that floats in the air'' said China Girl.
Ozma thought she would like to see this. Feeling this was her day as China Girl to show the mended hot air balloon. Ozma was even more curious as she stepped closer.
That moment a light breeze picked up. China Girl didn't like this as she tried to pull Ozma back but it was no use. Ozma crawled up into the basket. The wind was becoming more faster. Without warning the hot air balloon was lifted up into the air with Ozma still inside it.
China Girl watched in horror till her friend was out of sight. She run off to find Glinda and Oz. Ozma wondered where the wind would take her.
