Kung Fu Oz

Chapter 10: The Giant Ogre of Oz

Meanwhile, as they get out of the Dark Forest, they find themselves in a lava-flowed mountain in Oz where they see lots of pterodactyls and eagles as they fly right past them.

"What is this place?", asked Mei Ting, "It looks very... deadly and covered in lava."

"I've been here six years ago", said Lion, "These mountains steal the flowing lava from a volcano in Oz and transfer them to make them look deadly. Once any kind of person would enter here, he or she will be killed. These pterodactyls and eagles are savage creatures and if they get you, you're all dead."

"We might as well be careful", said Tin Man, "I can see three of them watching us right now."

The pterodactyls and the eagles watched the five as they walk through the old bridge that has been covered in vines. Later, they enter another cave filled with dusty cobwebs and empty holes. The giant spiders that live in this cave crawled past them.

"This place sure looks a lot more creepy than the Dark Forest", said Scarecrow.

"Keep on guard with us in case there's anything dangerous", said Lion and suddenly, they hear a growl that is far away from the others.

"What's that?", asked Po.

"Sounds like a monster", said Tin Man.

"It is a monster", said Lion, "It's roar is... very familiar and I think I recognized it before."

"What do you mean, Lion?", asked Mei Ting.

"It's a creature sent by the Wicked Witch of the West", said Lion, "Mei Ting, do you know that Oz has the most wonderous creatures in history? Well, most of them are extremely deadly especially that creature when its roar is heard by some who came here. They tried to fight it, but ended up being killed."

"What kind of creature is it, Lion?", asked Po.

"The Wicked Witch's creature is dangerous, even more so than the others", said Lion, "The creature... is the Giant Ogre of Oz."

Then, in about four meters from Mei Ting and the others, they see the Giant Ogre of Oz, a green creature with a pig-snout nose and a rhino's horn.

"Sure looks deadly alright", said Po, "What should we do now?"

"One of us would have to distract this thing while we try to get out of here fast", said Tin Man.

"Leave that to me", said Lion and walked towards the Ogre of Oz.

"Be careful, Lion", said Mei Ting and Lion charged towards the creature with a loud roar from his muzzle. He clawed it in the face and the legs, but gets knocked out, but not unconscious.

"Lion", said Mei Ting and takes out a sword from a dead skeleton, "Guys, take care of Toto. I'll take care of this hideous beast."

"Mei Ting, now!", shouted Po, but the black panther charged towards the creature and stabs the Ogre in the butt, causing the creature to growl in pain. The Ogre picks up Mei Ting and growls at her face.

"You two dare strike against the Ogre of Oz?!", shouted the Ogre.

"Why are you trying to block us from getting out of this terrible place?", asked Mei Ting, "We're trying to get to the Emerald City. The Wizard of Oz will help us get what we want when we get there."

"You're so brave for a black panther to arrive in Oz", said the Ogre, "Battle me first and I will grant your freedom to the Emerald City."

"You're on", said Mei Ting and bites the Ogre's hand.

"OW!", shouted the Ogre and Mei Ting shouted, "Run!"

The Lion and the others ran towards the exit door out of the cave and into the jungle in Oz while Mei Ting battles the Ogre in a sword against shield combat. When Mei Ting seems to be overpowered by being beaten in the face a few times by the Ogre's shield, the creature then prepares to strike the black panther.

"What should I do now?", thought Mei Ting, "Come on, think!"

Then, Mei Ting has an idea and quickly dodges the Ogre's final attack before he climbs on its back and stabs it. The creature growls and says, "You have won, black panther. You will now be on your way to Oz."

"Thank you", said Mei Ting and continues her way out of the exit and goes with the others who are almost out of the jungle.

"Thank goodness you're alright", said Po, "Did you kill the Ogre?"

"Yes, I did", said Mei Ting, "and I... I can't believe it. I actually did it by myself. I guess I did something right since this is my first time in Oz, did I?"

"Of course, Mei Ting", said Lion, "Besides, when I become a great leader, you can make a great soldier for my army when I make one."

"Thanks, Lion", said Mei Ting, "Now, come on. We have to get going."

Meanwhile, back at Lady Xaisha's castle, we see her getting angry at what Mei Ting had done.

"NO!", shouted Lady Xaisha, "That meddling brat killed my precious creature! Now, I have to come up with something else that would bring her death."

Lady Xaisha then takes her magic potion and brings it towards her crystal ball.

"When Mei Ting's dead, I will have those Ruby Slippers and my powers will be the greatest in oz", said Lady Xaisha, "Now, something with poison in it. Something that makes it attractive to the eye and soothing to the smell. Poppies are the only thing that would put her to sleep and then.. she will die."

The crystal ball shows the poppy flowers and Lady Xaisha chuckles evily.

Again, sorry for making this shorter. I wanted to kill some time before the Poppyfield scene from the original 1939 classic. Enjoy!
