The Rainbow Crystal of Oz

The Rainbow Crystal of Oz

* The Wizard of Oz has been my favorite book since I was little, and now I am undertaking a new concept, very few characters are mine, Jeff, Kara, Steve, Sorcera, Bonqua, and Elvara belong to me.  The Ruby Shoes are not mine either, and most of the other stuff in here as well. At points you may think it sounds like a video game, for which I apologize. So read on! *

PROLOGUE

          "Ozma, I have a funny feeling that something bad's gonna happen today," Dorothy told her friend.

          "Oh stop, nothing is going to happen." Ozma told her.

          But Dorothy Gale was right, for at that very moment a young witch named Elvara was busy working in her hut.  Elvara was tall and slender, her skin had a slight purple cast to it, and her long black/purple hair shone beautifully.  Elvara was evil and showed it in her long deep crimson dress, and matching cape with silver lining.

          She stood over her bubbling cauldron, clutching a massive spell book.  Her servant, Nathaniel, (one of the last surviving winged monkeys) was mixing in the last of the ingredients; it was dark before the spell was completed.  As the potion simmered she spoke the magic words, which I shall not write here for they are very powerful.

          The hut shook violently, and was blown apart by a massive explosion, and from the cauldron stepped Allia, The Wicked Witch of the West, everything was the same as you remember her, except, in the spell, the silver shoes had been added, which were now on her feet.  These shoes were the very same that had taken Dorothy back to Kansas over a hundred years ago, and only found recently.

          "Curse you Dorothy Ga- what? Where am I?  Where's Dorothy?" she asked.

          "You are in, what was my hut, as for Dorothy, she is in the Emerald City.  But, you have the slippers, and Oz is now conquerable." Elvara told her.

          "I thank you, and now…"

          "… Make me the ruler of OZ!"

          Dorothy, Ozma and Aunt Em had just put their forks down when Scarecrow came rushing in.

          "Ozma, look!" he said showing her the magic picture. 

          Across it scenes of Oz crumbling and withering flashed.  Around them Emerald City rose into the sky.  The beautiful green marble slowly turned to black. The emeralds became onyx and, worst of all, Ozma was no longer queen.  They ran to the throne room, only to discover…

          "Oh no!" Dorothy cried.

          "Oh, yes!  And now, I can finally be rid of you!" Allia said.

          With a wave of black magic she captured Scarecrow, and Dorothy.  Ozma frantically cast a counter curse (which shall be dealt with in detail later) before she was caught in the wave as well.  More waves were sent for Tin Woodsman, Cowardly Lion, Glinda and The Wizard of OZ himself.  She sealed them in the great temple atop Rainbow Mountain.  Only Ozma's child, who she thought did not exist, could break the seal and save Oz from Allia's clutches.
