Part Five

Scatter

When DG and Cain returned to the castle, they found absolute chaos. The servants were scattered around the room, frantically talking to each other. Cain quickly pulled out his gun.

"What is going on here?" DG said in a commending voice.

Shoes

"Princess, it is terrible! Queen Zelda has stolen the shoes!" Glitch said in a frantic voice, as he crawled out from underneath the dinning room table where he had been hiding.

DG was confused. She did not understand what the big deal about somebody stealing shoes, "If she needs a pair of shoes, I am sure we can give her a pair. It's not like we are in lacking in shoes."

Cain stared at DG in shock, "Kid, I think you are misunderstanding the situation."

Glitch looked at her in puzzlement, "No, princess, not just any shoes, but the ruby red slippers!"

"What are the ruby red slippers?" DG asked.

Myth

"The ruby red slippers are powerful shoes that the first Dorothy Gale wore to help her on her Journey through the OZ," Glitch explained.

"Wait! I thought that was just a myth?" DG Said.

"I afraid not, princess, the slippers are very real, and they are still powerful," Cain said grimly.

"Crap! Where is my family?" DG asked Glitch.

"They were taken hostage, are being held in the throne room by Queen Zelda," Glitch was unable to control his nervous twitching.

"Does Queen Zelda have anyone helping her?" asked Cain

"No, Queen Zelda, is counting on the power of the slippers to protect her," Glitch said.
