Chapter 2

(Candy County Court Room)

"ORDER IN THE COURT!" Judge Jawbreaker shouted, Mallow was standing next to an old looking scarecrow, his skin was black and his eyes were a dark green. He wore brown rags and a brown cowboy hat. "Marshall Mallow, what is the crime?" He asked.

"Sparrow murdered a gingerbread baby." Marshall replied sadly, everyone started to whisper to each other.

"ORDER IN THE COURT! What does he plea?" Jawbreaker asked, Sparrow just smirked. "You to jump of a cliff." He spat. "Very well. Sparrow I hear by sentence you to death by beheading. Marshall Mallow please take him away." Jawbreaker ordered.


That night Sparrow spent in a rotting dungeon. "Hey Mallow." The guard at his cell door called to the marshmallow. "Good day soldier." Even though Sparrow couldn't see them he could tell they were smiling. "Shouldn't you be getting back to your princess?" The guard asked.

"I'm going to be picking her after I drop those papers off at King Scarecrow's palace in Emerald City." Mallow replied.

'KING SCARECROW! That no-good, double crossing worthless pile of straw!' Sparrow thought to himself. "Yeah I hear he's having a rough time since Dorothy left." The guard said. "Indeed, I must leave you now. See you tomorrow." Mallow smiled and left.

"So he's king now is he, we'll see about that." He sneered through gritting teeth, pulled out some golden paper and started to write.

After he sealed the note Sparrow walked over to his bard window and through the note out the window, he looked down and saw it land in Mallow's open saddle bag full of paperwork. "Let the fun begin."


Drums filled the air as people gathered in the town square. "The prisoner Sparrow has been found guilty of murder." General Candyapple started as people gathered around. The leaders of Oz were there as well along with Lion, Tinman and King Scarecrow.

"The sentence DEATH!" People began to throw food and rocks at Sparrow as he was dragged towards the stool.

"The time has come Sparrow, do you have anything to say for yourself?" Candyapple asked, Sparrow looked up at Scarecrow before saying. "Goodbye brother." He laughed at the look on Scarecrow's face, however when the axe came down Sparrow grabbed a glass shard and forced it into the guards stomach and grabbed his sword.

"GRAUDS!" Mallow ordered, soon every guard in Candy County was surrounding Sparrow.

"Bring it boys." The mad man smirked. One by one the guards fell to the ground in pieces leaving only Marshall Mallow standing. "Farewell you horrid lot." Sparrow bowed before vanishing in a cloud of smoke. "We shall not rest until that mad man in dead!" Candyapple bellowed, Scarecrow looked like he was about to have a panic attack.

"You ok?" Lion asked when he noticed his friends face, the king just nodded and left.


It was beginning rain furiously, Sparrow ran for what seemed like hours until he came across an old barn. "Well lucky me." He smirked and ran into the barn just as it started to rain. "So he really is king." Sparrow started to laugh.

"Who's there?" Came a voice out, before Sparrow could hide, a tall farmer holding a candle and bat.

"HELP!" He yeld but Sparrow grabbed his bat and wacked him across the head knocking him out cold. "I think I need a change off clothes." He said to himself and stripped the farmer of his clothes, took off his rags and put them on.

"Ah much better, now to make sure I leave no trance." He smiled and trough the candle on some hay and locked the barn door, letting the barn and the farmer burn to the ground...
