DG met with Jeb the next day.

"Keep him away. I can't have anyone touching me. The OZ found me a suitor."

"Who?"

"I have an idea, but if he doesn't touch me, the easier my life will be."

"Agreed. Including my father?"

"Particularly your father."

Jeb walked up to his father and smiled broadly, reminding him of Adora wanting a child.

"Hi, Dad."

"What do you want?"

"What makes you think I want something?"

"I know that look."

"From mom?"

"Yes, from your mother."

"It's okay to miss her. She's dead, you've mourned."

"I know that." He snapped.

"I think we should spend some quality time together. You know, father-son time. It'll be fun."

"Define fun."

"You'll get to know you're son." He could see Cain's restraint waning. Then he tried his secret weapon. "DG said it'd be a good idea to get to know you."

"Really?"

"Yeah. But if you're going to be all weird about it, I don't know."

"Okay. We'll go out to the stables."

"Great. Thanks, Dad."

"No problem."

DG watched as Jeb walked back to her room. She stuck her head out and he inclined his head in acquiesce to her request. She knew that it was done.

She felt herself relive what happened before this morning's weird fest. She got the shock of her life.

She was in a room, it was dark. The room was dimly lit but she shone brightly as she breathed. She looked around in confusion.

"Princess Dorothy Gale. I have been expecting you."

"What? Who are you?"

"We are one."

"Who's we?"

"We are The Outer Zone."

"What? You have a material form?"
"No but we choose one."

"Oh."

"My name is Micheal. I am the spirit assigned to you as a guardian and translator. The OZ is upset with your family. They want you to take the reins of the Queen."

"What? I can't be Queen."

"You can and you will."

"Nope."

"You are strong and you are learning the ways of our land. We dislike your mother's reign. We need a queen that is compassionate to both sides of our land. We have the dark and the light. The Papay fields and the Forest of Dark and the Deserts are dark and you thrive there. You know you do. Caves, dark hallways, when you wake up in the middle of the night and sit in the dark- you're in your element. You prefer the dark. But you also need the light to function. You love Finaqua, water, flowers, and light. You don't thrive in it but you need it. You recognize the balance and you agree with it. You are optimistic but pessimistic in the perfect mixture. You see the conversation from both sides and then voice your opinion. You love deeply and passionately. You never stopped loving your sister but you did stop loving your real parents after you realized what they did."

"Yes."

"Well, I am here to remedy that. We have separate spirits that will come to you in your dreams. I am the first and most frequent spirit. You know that we demand a Queen to have a king."

"Yes."
"We have found one. You know him. He is a tin man."

"Cain?"

"We are in agreement."

"Hell no!" Micheal seemed taken aback by the coarse language. "Cain is still mentally married to his wife. I can tell."

"How?"

"He always stares off into the distance waiting for her to come back. He stares at his wedding ring after looking at me for more than a second more than he believes is respectful. He still yells Adora's name in the middle of the night. I promise that he still loves her."

"But is he mourning her or not letting go of her death?"
"I don't know and I don't care. I am not interfering into his life just because you want me to be with him."

"You are stubborn. I can see why they'd say I'd have trouble. Well when you wake up, things will be different."

"Really?"

"I am giving you the first piece of your magic soul back. I found it hidden in the witch. You know why. I need'nt discuss that with you."

"Okay."

"Your body will be different and you'll be in pain. Each piece of your magic soul with trigger a different feeling. Not all of them will be like this, some will be happier, some sadder. You must find the pieces before time is up or you will die."

"What do you mean time's up?"
"You have one month."

"Jesus Christ."

"Nope, just Micheal."

She smiled fondly. Stupid Micheal.

DG could hear Az tossing and turning. She knew that Az was being sepearated from Glitch. She walked into the room that her sister was occupying with her magic. She laid a hand on her sister's head and withdrew the memory unknown to her sister. DG shuddered and reappeared in her room. She laid down in bed and closed her eyes to relive her own sisters nightmares. She took all the blame upon herself.
