Hello! I am back!

Can you believe it? I was almost going to quit on this story! Ahh! But nevertheless, I 'Got My Head In the Game' and decided to stick to my first Suite Life story! Yay!

Disclaimer ya-da ya-da.

Chapter Three: It Wasn't Me!

"AAAHHHH!"

A scream filled my ears and I woke up. I didn't remember falling asleep, but as everything came into focus, all I could see was colors.

My head started pounding.

"Oh, Max!" A Spanish-accented voice exclaimed. Surprised, I looked around.

There were a bunch of creatures huddled around me, all about three feet tall. They all looked identical… They all looked just like that bell-hop at the Tipton: Esteban!

"Max! You saved us!" The tallest (by about two inches) exclaimed again.

"DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD, THE WITCH, THE WITCH, THE WICKED WITCH! DING DONG—"

"Wait, wait, wait!" I hollered before the Estebans could finish. They stared at me intently. "I didn't do anything! It wasn't me!"

"You killed the witch!" they exclaimed, some bowing to my feet.

"I didn't do anything!"

"LOOK!"

The Estebans were pointing to a huge purse down the street, with two feet sticking out from under it.

I recognized those shoes.

They were designer shoes.

They were the same shoes Nikki had been wearing earlier.

"Nikki's the witch? Wait… what am I doing here? Where is here?"

"Oz," the tallest Esteban told me.

"What a dumb dream!" I declared.

"This is not a dream!" an Esteban screamed. Another stepped forward and pinched my arm.

"Ow! What was that for?" I rubbed the spot where I had been pinched.

"This is not a dream!" the first one insisted again.

"WHO KILLED MY THIRD COUSIN BY LAW TWICE REMOVED?" A voice boomed from the sky.

All of the Estebans but the tallest screamed and hid behind whatever they could.

It was London, flying on a broom stick in the sky in a red and purple dress, carrying Ivona in one of her hands.

"DON'T MAKE ME REPEAT MYSELF!" she screamed. She looked at me with eye daggers. "IT WAS YOU!"

"No, no seriously! I didn't do anything!" I screamed.

"What is with those hideous hair ribbons? GIVE THEM TO ME!"

"What…?"

"RIGHT NOW! THEY ARE UNFASHIONABLE!"

"No. She will never give them to you!"

Maddie, dressed in this poofy purple dress, walked up to me while all of the Estebans stared in awe.

"Oh yes she will! I will not stand for ugly red hair ribbons!" London argued.

"Max, whatever you do, never give the Wicked Witch your hair ribbons," Maddie told me as she tapped the ribbons with her long, purple wand. "Understand?"

"I'm WAITING!"

"Okay…" I answered Maddie.

Was I going to wake up anytime soon? This was getting really irritating.

"You must find the Wizard! If you don't, London will surely get to you!"

"I just want to go home."

"Then you must ask the Wizard."

"Okay, I know you're waiting for me to say this, so: How do I get to the Wizard of Oz?" I asked, reciting lines from the play.

She's going to say 'Follow the Yellow Brick Road.'

"Follow the Yellow Brick Road!" she shrieked, and pointed to the brick path a few feet away.

"Yippee."

"Off with you, Witch!" Maddie yelled at London.

"Humph! You'll be sorry!" London frowned, flying away. Ivona hissed at me, and they were soon out of sight.

"She'll be back," Maddie sighed. "As will I. Later. Now, remember to keep the ribbons with you at all times."

"What's so special about them? They're stupid ribbons!"

"Max, Max, Max. Those ribbons possess a special magic in which she cannot have! Do not surrender them for anything!"

"Gotcha," I replied. I walked passed her as she left in a poof of sparkles.

So I'm finding the Wizard by walking down The Yellow Brick Road, and I can't surrender my hair ribbons.

Yeah, I'm dreaming.

Thanks to Sketchy Ghost who told me how to spell London's dog's name! Hehe!
