(Mombi's Transformation)

*December 21st, 1900*

*Emerald Palace*

Ozma and Mombi stood face to face against each other as the final confrontation that could decide the fate of the Emerald City as the old witch laughed to herself.

"You fool! You may have returned back to normal; however, I was able to find a way to destroy you once and for all but first, you gotta find me!" Mombi had cried out to Ozma while laughing evilly as she used a spell to make herself disappear into thin air while Ozma remained on her toes.

"Tin Woodman! Jack! You guys handle Jinjur and her army while I catch up to Mombi, okay?!" Ozma had commanded her friends while quickly running up the stairs of the palace while Tin Woodman and Jack Pumpkinhead nodded their heads in understandment.

"You got it! We won't let these girls win! We shall restore you back to the throne" Tin Woodman had spoken back to Ozma before turning his direction to Jinjur, Rosy, Flora, and the rest of the army.

"You really think you guys are gonna defeat us? Queen Jinjur is the ruler of Oz and nobody shall get in her way unless you two want to fight?" Rosy had spoken out to Tin Woodman and Jack Pumpkinhead in a rather confident tone of voice as the battle between the pair and Jinjur's army was slowly underway.

*Upstairs*

Ozma was quickly searching each room for Mombi as she knew that she had to find the witch in a timely manner before Mombi could pull off something dreadful as she suddenly heard a voice from the potions room.

"Mombi! Surrender now or I'll have no choice but to use physical means! You know you can't hide from me forever.." Ozma had spoken out to Mombi in a tone of authority while slowly walking towards the room before discovering Mombi sitting on a black throne while holding a staff in one hand.

"Ozma, my dear! Look how much you've grown! I still remember when you was poor little Tip who served me throughout the day!" Mombi had spat out while getting out from her throne to get closer to Ozma while the young princess remained firm in place.

"Mombi, for the last time, SURRENDER or I'll have to use physical means. You have terrorized the Emerald City long enough and by that, I shall never allow you to step foot into the city EVER" Ozma had commanded Mombi while the old hag laughed at her words before getting ready to fight Ozma.

"I'm afraid that's not gonna happen, once I'm done with you than I shall kill Jinjur, her annoying friends, army, and even your little friends as well finally, I shall become the most powerful witch in Oz and NOBODY shall stand in my way!" Mombi had spat out in an evil tone of voice as she began to fight Ozma.

Mombi had fired a slew of black energy towards Ozma's direction; however, Ozma was able to dodge them with ease as each of the black energy managed to hit the walls thus destroying them in the process.

"Darn it! I should had asked Glinda to give me powers as well.." Ozma had thought to herself while continuing to dodge Mombi's attack as she could hear the old hag taunt her.

"What's wrong?! Where's that vinegar at!? How could you call yourself the daughter of King Pastoria yet you fail to defeat the former Wicked Witch of the North!" Mombi had cried out in joy while continuing to laugh maniacally as she also continued to fire the black energy to Ozma as this was rather troublesome for the poor girl.

"I just gotta distract Mombi until Glinda gets here but I feel like I have some power hidden within me but I don't know how to unlock it…" Ozma had thought to herself while quickly noticing Mombi dashing towards her direction.

Mombi had approached Ozma with such speed as the old hag used her staff to deliver a terrible blow towards Ozma as the black energy had sent a jolt of pain to the young girl as she was sent flying across the palace before landing into a separate room.

"S-She's strong! Old Mombi sure has been practicing her witchcraft the past two days but I refuse to give up!" Ozma had spoken out to herself while slowly getting up to see Mombi slowly walking towards her with an evil grin.

"Oh, I also didn't forget about getting back at that impudent girl for killing the Wicked Witch of the West, my very good friend! I'll find a way to kill her and with that, This final attack shall destroy you once and for ALL!" Mombi had spat out in confidence and rage while charging up her staff while Ozma could do nothing but continue her battle with the evil witch; however, Ozma could hear a voice calling out to her as Ozma had suddenly found herself in area filled with pure light.

"My child, you have the power to destroy Mombi, You must use it and the only way for you to use them is to believe in your heart that you have powers.." The voice had spoken out to Ozma as this caused the girl to feel a sense of familiarity.

"T-That voice?! Why do i feel like I know it..W-Who are you.." Ozma had spoken out in surprise as she felt hands gently touching her face

"Because, you are my child and by that, You've inherited a small fraction of my power but please excuse my manners but I go by the name Queen Lurline.." Queen Lurline had spoken back to Ozma in a gentle tone of voice while Ozma was surprised at this revelation; however, she wasn't able to make out her face.

Despite this, Lurline was extremely beautiful, divine and luminous and the size of a giant. the most beautiful, most breathtaking and most divine being across the universe. Being brighter than the burning sun and bigger than the glowing moon with eyes that twinkle like "falling stars shooting past Jupiter and Mercury and the many Heavens above."

"S-So beautiful and Thank you for believing in me.." Ozma had spoken out as the presence of Queen Lurline made her feel rather calm as the being quickly disappeared before Ozma was returned into the exact location where her current battle was taking place.

"So? Any last words before I finally end your pathetic little life?!" Mombi had spat out to the young princess as her words were met with Ozma smiling rather confidently.

"I have a few last words and It's that I won't allow your evil to continue any longer!" Ozma had cried out to Mombi in a tone of motivation as she was ready to fight Mombi.

Ozma had quickly extended her hands out towards her opponent before sending a pure ball of white energy towards Mombi while this had caught the old hag off guard.

"W-What the?!" Mombi cried out in confusion as Ozma had managed to hit her with her abilities, thus delivering huge amounts of pain towards her as she cried out in pain before collapsing on the ground.

"H-How?! A second ago you was helpless against my magic but now you've managed to land a blow against me! HOW?!" Mombi spat out once again in anger while slowly getting up in the process as she saw Ozma approaching her with eyes burning with anger.

"Like I said, I'm Ozma! Daughter of King Pastoria and Queen Lurline, heir to the throne of Oz! I shall never lose to an evil being like you!" Ozma had declared back at Mombi; however, the evil witch wasn't gonna lose that easily as she attempted to fire another blast towards Ozma but the young princess managed to deflect it with ease.

"I shall NEVER give up! I won't stop until you are dead! You were ALWAYS a nuisance! From the way you talk, act, and other such things! You are nothing but an annoying little BRAT! I should have dropped you off the highest cliff or fed you to the Kalidahs when I had the chance but now, I shall use my magic to KILL you, nice and slowly…" Mombi had spat out in pure rage as she quickly used one of her potions that was in her bag to create a puff of smoke as this briefly blinded Ozma's eyesight.

"M-Mombi! Where are you?! Surrender now!" Ozma had cried out to the evil witch while looking around for any signs of Mombi and after a few seconds of searching, Ozma had finally found the evil witch drinking a bottle of potion which made her raise an eyebrow.

"You see, I've been developing a potion that can ensure my victory and now! That day shall finally come.." Mombi had spat out as the effects of the potion began to take place as the old hag was coughing rather violently while holding her chest.

"Spit it out! Are you trying to kill yourself! Spit it out and admit defeat or else you are gonna die!" Ozma had cried out to Mombi; however, the evil witch smiled back at her while still choking on the potion as she began to speak.

"T-That's j-just the p-process! In a few seconds! I-I shall.." Mombi had spoken back in between each cough and gag as she finally began to transform into a rather monstrous form.

Mombi's new form was very tall, slender, and quite monstrous as it had the color of black all round her body. She also had wings similar to that of an eagle with two horns extending from each side of her head.

"Mombi, you refuse to surrender and for that, I shall defeat you, here and now!" Ozma had declared to Mombi as she suddenly began to charge up her powers while the evil witch was laughing maniacally.

"FOOLISH GIRL! You really think you have the power to defeat me in my new form?! You must have a death wish but FINE die a poor man's death!" Mombi had spat out towards Ozma as with quick speed, the evil witch had dashed towards Ozma while the young princess had done the same thing as both of their powers clashed rather violently.

*Emerald Throne Room*

The sounds of Ozma and Mombi's battle could be heard from all the way below as things weren't looking good for Tin Woodman and Jack Pumpkinhead as Jinjur's army was overpowering them.

"You boys should just give up! There's no way you two can defeat our army!" Jinjur had spoken out while Rosy and Flora were laughing at what they were seeing as Tin Woodman and Jack Pumpkinhead struggled to break free from the clutches of Jinjur's army.

"H-How are these girls giving us trouble!? I've killed forty wolves with ease yet I can't shrug them off?" Tin Woodman had spoken out in annoyance as he felt himself being toyed around by the women of the army while Jack Pumpkinhead was in a very bad position as the girls were messing and even tried to stomp his head; however, Jack Pumpkinhead refused to give up.

"My mother needs us! The people of the Emerald City need us! They don't realize that they're being manipulated by Old Mombi! I have to do something! ANYTHING!" Jack Pumpkinhead had cried out in sheer motivation as he slowly felt himself getting while fending off some of the girls in the process as this surprised Rosy.

"W-wait?! Where are you getting all that spunk from!? You're just an idiot pumpkinhead like Mombi told us! I'm glad that Mombi has blessed us with some of her magic to take care of simpletons like you!" Rosy had spat out in disgust as she stared at Jack Pumpkinhead who's eyes were filled with fury.

"I-I don't know but I will protect my mother and my friends from you people! I won't allow Mombi nor anyone else to harm those I care about!" Jack Pumpkinhead had cried back in sheer motivation while the damaged pumpkin man was holding one of the wishing pills in his hand as it was clear that he had a wish in mind but will it work?!
