A/N: Sorry for not posting for a couple days, life's been kinda hectic. Any way I have been playing around with chapter 8 a bit and came up with something that I hope you'll all like.
Wizards,witches and flying Monkees?
Slowly walking down the long Emerald green hallway,they soon found themselves infront of a big green podium with brightly glowing flames on each side.
With all of their knees shaking,the first one to run was the lion,as soon as the flames roared and the thundering voice of the wizard spoke.
"I am the powerful Oz,who dares to disturb me?"asked the wizard
"Your wizard ness, we come before you to ask for you to help Stephanie get back home."said scarecrow Mike
"I will help,but first you must do something for me."said the wizard
"You just name it,and we'll do it."said Peter the tinman
"I need you to go to the wicked witch's castle,and bring me the pull string he uses to create his minions."said the wizard "Do this for me, and I will grant your request."
"What does a pull string have to do,with my getting home?"asked Stephanie
"No questions,just do it!"the wizard roared loudly
Making a run for it as flames roared,the three of them found the lion cowering in a corner. Not sure how long they had,they left the Emerald city to go and get what the wizard had requested.
Watching from a distance,the wicked witch summoned his flying monkees,to go and bring the others to the castle. Going over his evil plan with his monkee minions,the wicked witch sent them out to perform their task.
Leaving the castle,the four flying monkees,began searching for the four weary travelers. During their flight,they began complaining about how they needed to find a new gig,since working for the witch was becoming a total drag.
"Man,once this is over we have to find a new gig."said monkee #1
"Who's gonna want four overgrown primates working for 'em?"asked monkee #2
"Fellas,there's loads of work in Oz,I'm sure we could find something to do."said monkee #3
"Should be easy for you,you could always go live with the munchkins."said monkee #2 smirking
"I'm getting tired of all these small jokes."monkee #3 sulked
"Will you two knock it off,we've still got a job to do."said monkee #1
"Hey,is that our target down there?"asked monkee #4
The entire time that the four flying monkees had been arguing,down on the ground,Stephanie and the others had started wondering where all the noise had been coming from.
All of the sudden,the sky had gotten dark and the only sounds to be heard were the screams from the lion. Screaming for monkee #2 to let her go,Stephanie soon saw the wicked witch's castle. Once everyone was back on the ground,Stephanie,the scarecrow,lion and tin man all stared at the outside of the building as they were led in through the door.
"Boy,I'll tell you one thing,this place is a dump."said scarecrow Mike
"Yeah well,it's home at least until we find a new gig."said monkee#1
"What do you guys do other than working for old ugly?"asked Micky the lion
"We're musicians in our spare time,or at least we'd like to be."said monkee#4 disappointedly
"Not to break up the conversation,but we still have a job to do."said monkee#2
Taking the prisoners to the wicked witch,Stephanie was wondering if she was ever going to get home,or if she actually was home since the wicked witch's lair looked almost exactly like the pad in Malibu.
By the time they were brought to the wicked witch,the four flying monkees were ordered to lock up the scarecrow,lion and tin man. Standing alone with the wicked witch,Stephanie didn't know whether to be frightened or angry because she had just about enough of being toyed around with.
"So my dear,we meet again."said wicked witch Babbit
"Yeah,it's definitely a meeting I wish I could have avoided."said Stephanie
"Spunky little thing aren't you?"asked wicked witch Babbit
"I come from a long line of people with bad tempers."Stephanie sighed "So how about letting my friends go.""
"All in good time my pretty."said wicked witch Babbit
While Stephanie was trying to figure out the witch's game,the four flying monkees had just finished locking the others in their cell.
"Another job well done."said monkee #2
"Hey guys,maybe we should let them go."sighed monkee#4
"Let them go? Are you mad?"asked monkee#3
"They haven't done anything wrong but help that nice young girl,so who are we to keep them?"asked monkee #4
"I think you guys,should listen to your friend and let us go."said Micky the lion
"You keep out of this."said monkee #2
"Now hang on a minute,I think #4 is right,we should let them go."said monkee#1
"I think you've all gone completely crackers."sighed monkee #3
"I knew I liked this fella."said scarecrow Mike pointing at monkee#1
Right when they were about to release the others,the wicked witch showed up with Stephanie,and ordered them to throw her in the cell as well. Doing as they were told,Stephanie had been placed in the cell and, the flying monkees followed their boss back to the lair.
Slumping down against the wall,Stephanie placed her head in her hands,and sighed hopelessly.
"This poor kid,we have to do something to help her."said Peter the tin man
"How? When we're locked up in this cell?"asked Micky the lion
"Give me a minute,and I'll try to figure out something."said scarecrow Mike
Trying to figure out how to help Stephanie,the scarecrow,lion and tin man weren't alone in planning a rescue mission,since the flying monkees were willing to help her too.
Oh one more thing...see if you can guess which flying monkee is who :)
