Chapter 7: Battling the Witch

The four walked out of the building, and started thinking of a way to get the wand from the witch. "So where exactly does the witch live?" asked Cassia. "I heard she lives in this really dark forest, far away from everyone." said Leena.

"Okay, so we just need to figure out a way to get there." said Scarecrow Freddy. "I bet those guardians would know how." said Mick. Then like that, Josh appeared, from a ball of light. "Oh, Josh just in time. Do you know how to get to the witch's forest?" asked Cassia.

"Indeed I do. Just follow the red path back to the field of tall grass, then turn right , that's where you'll find the forest where the witch resides. But be warned the forest if full of dangerous creatures." said Josh, then he disappeared.

"Well let's get going." said Scarecrow Freddy. So they all walked back down the red path until they got to the field of tall grass, then they turned right, and after walking for about ten minutes, they were at the edge of a large forest.

"It seems really dark in there." said Leena, nervously. "Ah don't be such a baby, so it's a little dark and...that guardian did say there's some bad animals...in there." said Mick, who was started to get a little nervous himself.

"Come on guys, you heard the wizard, to prove our worth we have to get that wand." said Cassia. "The kid's right." said Scarecrow Freddy. After taking a deep breathe, they all walked into the forest.


After about walking about ten minutes into the forest, the four had to admit the forest was creepy. The trees were so tall and their leaves were so dense that they blocked out the sun. The branches were all bent and grew in strange places.

But the creepiest thing was that it was extremely quiet. "Gee this place gives me the creeps." said Mick. "Uh guys, I have the strange feeling we're being watched." said Cassia. "Don't be so paranoid Cassia. Probably just your imagination." said Scarecrow Freddy.

However in the back of his head he had the same feeling. They were being watched though, by the witch's snake minions in the trees. Back at her lair, the witch watched the four making their way through the forest.

"I have to say this certainly one way to prove our worth. Getting the wand of the witch." said Leena. "(Cackles), so they decided to try and prove their worth to the wizard, eh? This is too easy." said the witch.

Then she got on her intercom to communicate to her snake minions. "Here this everyone, capture that little koala and bring her to me." she ordered. When the snakes heard their order, they all gathered together, and waited for the four to walk by.

When they came in sight, they attacked. "What the?" asked Scarecrow Freddy, as he tried to get the snakes off him. "Get off." said Leena. "Hey, what's the big idea?" asked Mick, as he dodged the snakes.

"Leave us alone." said Cassia. The snakes then grabbed Cassia's arms and legs, and started carrying her off. "Cassia." said Scarecrow Freddy. "Guys, help." she called. The three tried to grab her, but the snakes flew away with her.

"We got to save her." said Leena. "Then let's get cracking, follow those snakes." said Mick. And with that being said, the three hurried after the snakes.


No matter how much Cassia protested, the snakes would not let her go. They flew her to a scary looking black castle, and they went in through a window, and dropped her on the floor. Cassia looked up, and saw the witch smiling evilly at her.

"Well hello my little koala." she said. Frightened, Cassia tried to run, but the snakes wrapped themselves around her to restrain her. "Good work my pets, now to get what's rightfully mine." said the witch.

But when she tried to take them off her feet, they shocked her. "Ow, why you little.." said the witch angrily. "What, what are you gonna do?" asked Cassia in a frightened voice.

"First, I'm gonna do something about this burn, then I'll take care of you. Keep on her boys." the witch said, and she left the room. Meanwhile Scarecrow Freddy, Leena, and Mick had come to the witch's castle.

"How do we get in there?" asked Mick. Scarecrow Freddy thought about it, and then he saw a window with a light coming from it. "Leena, use your trunk to lift Mick up to that window, and then Mick see if Cassia's in there." said Scarecrow Freddy.

"Me go in there with those snake creeps slithering around?" asked Mick in disbelief. "Come on, Mick, we have to save Cassia." said Leena. Mick thought about how scared Cassia must've been in there with the witch and those snakes.

"All right, let's do this." said Mick. Leena lifted him up, and once he got on the windowsill, he looked inside. He saw Cassia in there tied up with snakes. "I found her." he said. "Great, now once you get in there, find a way to distract them, and find us a way to get in." said Scarecrow Freddy.

"Got it." said Mick. He quietly, slipped in, and landed on the floor. He scurried up to Cassia and the snakes and said, "Hey, snake over here." Spotting the mouse, the snakes let go of Cassia and started slithering after him, as he ran away.

"Mick." said Cassia, worriedly. "Don't worry about me, kid. The others are outside, find a rope or something so we can hoist them up." said Mick, as he ran. Cassia did so, and Mick ran towards a wall, made a sharp turn, and the snakes crashed their heads into the wall.

"That's teach ya to mess with me." said Mick, to the unconscious snakes. Cassia put a pail over the snakes, and luckily the two found a rope, and used it to hoist Scarecrow Freddy and Leena up.

"Glad you guys came." said Cassia. "Now we just have to get the witch's wand." said Leena. So they quietly snuck out the door, and went looking for the wand. About a minute later, the witch came back into the room, and was shocked to see Cassia gone.

"What the..." she asked in disbelief. She walked over to the pail, and lifted it. "You pathetic snakes, where's the girl?" she snapped. But the snakes just hissed in pain. She stomped to her computer monitors, and looked on them.

She saw the four in another of the room looking for her wand. Using her powers, she teleported from that room to another. As the four looked, they were shocked when a puff of smoke appeared, and the witch emerged.

"So you misfits thought you'd come save your little friend, huh? Well try this." she said. She took her wand out of her pocket, and tried to zap them, but they got out of the way. They ran all around the room, and the witch tried to zap them.

Cassia ran, but she accidentally bumped into the witch. "Now I'll get those shoes my little koala." Cassia backed up, and bumped into a shrunk, and a vase full of weeds fell, and shattered on the witch.

"No, not water!" shouted the witch. To everyone's surprise she started to melt into a big gooey puddle. "Oh my gosh." said Leena, as she looked at the giant pile of goo. "She's...she's dead." said Mick.

"The witch is gone!" Scarecrow Freddy said happily. The four cheered happily, and Cassia grabbed the wand. "And we've got the wand." she said. The four then hurried out of the castle, and ran back to Theater City.
