"But we can't be in Munchkin land. It would be too weird." Bridgette said.
"We're in Munchkin land. I'm a hundred percent sure." Noah affirmed.
"What makes you so sure?"
"There's a big sign behind you."
Bridgette turned around and saw a sign on which it was written with big golden letters "You are now in Munchkin land."
"How ironic." She said. "What are we going to do now?"
"Haven't you read the story?" Noah asked.
"I was eight back then, don't expect me to remember too much."
But their discussion was interrupted by a sound of cheer.
"Can you hear that?" Bridgette asked.
"I may be a dog in this story, Bridgette, but I'm certainly not a deaf one." Noah replied rolling his eyes. "It's coming from there."
Five figures approached the two, from the direction where Noah pointed. They were wearing colorful clothes and had cute little hats on their heads.
"What the…?" Bridgette started.
"I believe these are the munchkins." Noah said smiling.
But when the munchkins got closer to Bridgette she looked at them more carefully and made a discovery.
"You guys are the munchkins?!" She asked.
The five citizens of this magic and unusual land were none other than Bridgette and Noah's acquaintances: Katie, Sadie, Justin, Ezekiel and DJ.
"It looks like we're not the only ones reliving the story." Noah said.
"Oh my gosh, Katie, look, it's Bridgette and Noah." Sadie squealed.
"Bridgette, you look so cute dressed like that. You should get pigtails more often." Katie continued.
"Yeah, pigtails are definitely the cutest." Sadie commented.
"And let me guess, pink and yellow go great with pigtails?" Noah asked on his usual sarcastic tone, seeing the pink and yellow outfits the two girls were wearing.
"I didn't know you had such a great fashion sense." Sadie asked with a large smile.
"But what are you doing here, eh?" Ezekiel asked, scratching his elbow.
"I think they're supposed to be Dorothy and Toto." DJ replied.
"How do you know that?" Sadie asked.
"Mr. Squeaky told me." DJ said pointing at the squirrel in his hand.
"So squirrels can talk here?" Bridgette asked a bit confused.
"We're in a story, Bridgette. Anything can happen." Noah replied.
"So that means you're our heroes. Hurray!" Katie squealed.
"Yeah, you killed the evil witch. Or at least, your house did." Sadie added.
"Was the witch evil with you?" Bridgette asked.
The munchkins looked at each other, looking for an answer.
"Well, she did say we look ridiculous." Sadie said.
"And that's not a nice thing to say." Katie added.
"Who are we kidding, eh? We look stupid." Ezekiel said, throwing his yellow hat and jumping on it.
"Yeah, I think we do…" Katie admitted, while the others nodded.
"At least Justin looks good." Sadie affirmed.
Indeed, Justin looked hot even in a yellow blouse with red buttons, orange pants and with a pink hat.
"Wait, so let me get this straight. You're all happy because my house fell on a witch who was just saying that you look ridiculous, which is actually true?" Bridgette asked.
The munchkins nodded.
"Are you crazy? Why are you happy? That poor woman just died because of me!" Bridgette shouted.
"Actually, she died because of your house." DJ interfered.
"Whatever." Bridgette said still troubled.
"Bridgette, we live in a society where people are entertained by watching very violent shows on TV and seeing fights on the streets. Don't be so surprised that these people are happy that witch is dead. Maybe nothing interesting happened in these past few days and they needed to see something shocking, like on the evening news." Noah affirmed.
"I don't get it, eh." Ezekiel told Sadie.
"Look, she's here!" Katie squealed, pointing to a certain direction.
Bridgette and Noah turned around and saw a tall girl with red hair, wearing a long white dress and having a wand in her hand.
"Welcome to Munchkin Land, witch-killers!" She said with a large smile.
"Izzy?!" Noah and Bridgette asked very surprised.
"You're the Good Witch of the North?" Noah asked.
"Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I'm wearing white and I have a cool wand that I can use as a weapon. It's awesome!" Izzy replied moving her wand as if it were a sword.
"I thought the Witch of the West was supposed to be sane…" Noah said slowly.
"This is too weird for me." Bridgette affirmed. "I want to go home!"
"Oh, it's easy to get back home, dear old-lady assassin." Izzy said. "Just go to the Wizard of Oz and he will send you back to Kansas."
"But I don't live in Kansas. And please stop calling me a killer. I haven't done anything wrong. My house killed the witch." Bridgette said.
"It doesn't really matter. I'm not a cop, so I won't judge you. But you should get out of here before the fuzz shows up." Izzy said looking at her watch. "Don't forget to follow the yellow brick road, until you reach the City of Emeralds!"
"Well, we should get moving. Are you coming, Bridgette?" Noah asked.
"I'm coming. Bye, munchkins and good witch!" Bridgette said waving.
While everyone was waving to the blonde Dorothy, Noah looked at her with reproach.
"What? I was just following the story. And don't give me that look, you're supposed to be a dog, and dogs don't judge their masters." Bridgette said on a bossy tone.
"Dogs usually urinate on their owners' legs, but I'm mannered enough to abstain from this impulse." Noah replied with his usual sarcasm.
