The Witch of the West looks mockingly at the 4 boys and points to Nobita and Doraemon. -You two are about to fall into disgrace, give up and give me the ruby shoes if you don't want me to turn you into a toad and a raccoon completely!-
-UUUUGH, I ALREADY TOLD YOU THAT I'M NOT A RACCOON!- Doraemon demands angrily.
-And I'm not going to give you the shoes, the little fairy Shizuka entrusted them to me and I'm not going to let them go!- Nobita says but he thinks -It's not like she can take them from me either-
-Then you better get ready Nobita, because when I catch you and your blue friend, I'll also turn that tin boy into a beehive and the straw boy into a pillow! HA HA HA!-
-I'm not afraid of you, ma'am! You can't hurt my friends!- Says the scarecrow
The witch vanishes again with her magic, but not before throwing a fireball at Scarecrow Dekisugi, but Tin Gian manages to block the fireball with his ax while the sky turns blue again. -Thank you very much, if that fireball had touched me even by a touch, I would have ended up in flames- Says the straw boy
-Bah! It's nothing, I never liked that witch and I'm not afraid of her either- The tin strong boy looks at Nobita and Doraemon -Why do you have problems with the worst person in the entire land of Oz? Is it because of the shiny red shoes you have?- Tin Gian asks, pointing to the shoes on Nobita's feet.
-Let's say yes, but we can't give them to her, a cute fairy have entrusted them to me and I can't give them just like that, they are supposed to be powerful.- The boy says -And I can't use them until the end or the simulator is going to reset, although I don't remember exactly how Dorothy used them either- he thinks while scratching his head in confusion.
The blue cat points to the silly boy -Nobita and I are now heading to the Emerald City because we come from another place, we will ask the wizard to help us with returning home. I'm Doraemon by the way- Doraemon points to Dekisugi scarecrow -Our friend Scarecrow Dekisugi joined us so he could get a brain so he could be smarter.-
-Although I still think that he needs to ask for one- Nobita says and looks at the tin boy and exhales again -You say you need a heart to feel things, right? Come with us to see the magician so that he can help you like he helps us- He says it with a smile
-OF COURSE! I'll go too, I need a heart and the wizard is very powerful, he'll surely give me one! Besides, they need someone strong like me if that witch attacks you again! I'll show her what I'm made of the next time I see her!- says the Tin Gian, keeping his ax inside its hollow interior.
Nobita whispers to Doraemon -He's definitely like the real Gian and that makes me a little nervous-
-Remember that it's an interpretation that the simulator made of how you see Gian, although you are right, it isn't very different from reality- Doraemon whispers and they both laugh nervously while the tin boy stares at them.
-Anyway, let's go, I want that heart!-
The 3 boys return to the walk along the yellow path, this time accompanied by the Tin Gian, the path continues until it enters a forest that little by little darkens as they continue advancing along the path, Nobita gets nervous and hides behind Doraemon. -Isn't there a way to go around this place?- Says the boy with glasses nervously.
-Remember that we have to follow the yellow path, don't be afraid, you are the protagonist of this story- Doraemon says as he lets out a sigh.
-Going around would delay us a lot, this path is more practical, although we can hardly see much- Straw Dekisugi says that and Doraemon takes out a flashlight and turns it on, surprising the straw boy and the tin boy -That's better and it's not a flame.-
-What if a monster appears here or the witch?- Nobita says, a little fearful.
-Don't worry, if it's a monster I'll throw it into the air!- Tin Gian says while he hits his chest.
A roar sounds in the environment making everyone startle, the bushes next to them begin to move and the 4 retreat, preparing for the worst, a feline creature appears jumping out of the bushes making Nobita scream. But to his surprise, it didn't reach the size of the silly boy, apart from the fact that it had a shining crown on its head, it was a lion, whose fox-like face resembled Suneo's.
-But he's just a kitten- says the Tin Gian.
-Suneo?- Nobita says, stopping being afraid.
-Something like that, commoner, Suneo is my name, but I am mostly known as the Lion, the bravest animal in the jungle, that's why I have this king's crown!- The kitten points to his resplendent crown that he made himself.
-You know this is a forest and not a jungle, right?- Doraemon says.
-I know, don't ruin my presentation!- Claims the lion -I challenge you to fight me, but I know you won't be able to defeat me!- He says in a half-mocking tone while pointing at Doraemon -I'll start with you, raccoon!-
-Ugh, I'm not a raccoon, I'm a cat and...!-
At that moment Suneo the lion throws himself on Doraemon and doesn't let go of his face, causing him to run around trying to get the lion off of him.
-LET GO OF MY FACE, LET GO OF MEEEEE!- Doraemon shouts but he barely understands him because the lion had him firmly held
-Do you see how you are afraid of me? I'm the true king of the jungle, and if you are a cat like you say you are, technically I'm your boss for being the best feline! - Says the kitten, smiling mischievously.
-We have to do something- Says the scarecrow boy.
Tin Gian was going to stop them but Nobita acts quickly, grabbing Doraemon from behind and pushing Suneo away, pushing him hard, causing him to fall to the ground. -Don't bother my friend!- Nobita says annoyed while Doraemon breathes a sigh of relief.
-Thank you Nobita- Doraemon says smiling.
The lion, instead of getting angry for having been pushed so abruptly, begins to tear and cries scandalously -MOMMYYYYYYY!- The feline's tears fly like waterfalls, making the tin boy step back because he didn't want to rust again. -YOU ARE RUUUUUDE!-
-You started trying to fight with Doraemon for no reason!- Nobita claims annoyed -Aren't you supposed to be the bravest in the jungle or something?-
The lion continues crying while placing his face on the ground apologizing -SORRY! Actually all of you scared me, I just acted strong so you don't do anything bad to me!-
-Wow, but this is a scaredy-cat- Says the Tin Gian.
-I'm supposed to be brave for being the king of the jungle but I'm scared. DON'T HURT ME, I IMPLORE YOU, MOMMYYYYY!- Lion Suneo trembles with fear while he continues crying.
-I don't even cry as much as this one- Nobita says and sighs -Anyway. What you lack is courage, right?
Lion Suneo nods fearfully -Other lions take advantage of that to make fun of me, I wanted to leave to show them that I could be brave, but not only did I end up here, but now some strangers are going to turn me into a foot coaaaaat!- He shouts crying scary
-Calm down, we aren't going to turn you into a coat- Says Scarecrow Dekisugi
-Really?- The kitten's snot was hanging from his nose and the straw boy nods -Thank goodness. But still, I'm still a coward-
-If you had not pressed the button, Nobita, you would have been in Suneo's place, although he exaggerates a little- Nobita looks annoyed at what Doraemon says -I was just joking, don't be angry buddy- the cat is only limited to laugh scratching the back of the neck
-Anyway, I don't care. I'm Nobita, this is Doraemon and this is Scarecrow Dekisugi and Tin Gian. We are going to the Emerald City so that the magician can help us with what we want, we want to return home- Says the silly boy
-I have a brain to be very smart- says the straw boy
-And I have a heart to feel sorry for your case, but you don't even make me feel that- Says the robust boy, crossing his arms.
-Come with us and it's possible that the magician will give you courage so that you no longer fear anything- Nobita says to which Suneo the lion jumps into his arms.
-I'm in! Thank you, thank you commoners!- Says the lion boy and Nobita looks at him indifferently.
-Yeah, but don't call us commoners- says the boy with the glasses and the kitten gets off happily.
-Okay! Come on, we have to go see the magician!- The 5 boys begin the walk again along the yellow path -Such elegant and shiny shoes. Can you lend them to me?-
-No- Nobita says as everyone continues walking.
What they didn't know is that far from there, on the top of a mountain in a dark and gloomy castle, the Wicked Witch of the West was watching them with her crystal ball, watching as they were reaching the exit of the forest, focusing on the view of the ball in the silly boy and the ruby shoes. -Soon, soon the ruby shoes will be mine and when I wear them I'll be unstoppable!- The witch laughs madly and sees the field of poppies that was near them -And I already know how to get hold of that pair of fools-
The witch uses her magic to throw a kind of poison to the poppies through the crystal ball as a sleep aid. The 5 see how there was a fork, one path led straight through the poppy field and the other went around it but was a little longer. -And now where are we going?- Nobita asks.
-The poppy field obvious, it's shorter!- Answers the tin boy.
-Are you sure it's not better to go around...?- Doraemon was suggesting the other path but the boys were already reaching the poppies, the robot cat just sighs and follows them. Suneo smells one of the poppies.
-How elegant the poppies are, they are like me- says the ktten, adjusting the crown on his head.
-Don't show us off your crown, you scaredy-cat- Gian says and Nobita yawns.
-Don't tell me you want to take a nap now- Doraemon says behind the human boy.
Nobita was beginning to lose visibility because his eyelids were heavy and he barely sees Doraemon when he turns to look at him. -Suddenly I want a nap...- The boy falls asleep on the blue robot's head.
-Nobita?!- Doraemon says stunned and sees how the little lion also falls asleep on the floor
-Hey! Wake up Lion! -The tin boy moves Suneo the lion, but he was drooling and had a little balloon on his nose indicating that he was very asleep.
-Oh no, this is bad! -Doraemon shakes Nobita but he was still asleep -They don't wake up for anything!-
Scarecrow Dekisugi looks at the poppies and then at his friends -Surely the poppies were the culprit, the only thing I can think of, I think, is that the witch is behind this. But we have to wake them up before she tries to take the shoes!-
-And why didn't she make us sleep?- Gian asks.
-I don't know, but we have to do something- Doraemon says and then thinks -But if I use a gadget, the simulator could restart, but I can't let her take Nobita away- The cat thinks as he sees his sleeping friend lying on the ground while holding him with his arm -I'm not going to risk-
Doraemon puts his hand in his pocket about to take out a gadget but the straw boy starts shouting for help just like the Tin Gian, seeing how they are trying hard to help, the robot cat takes his hand out of his pocket and also screams for help. The good fairy of the North Shizuka appears approaching in her pink sphere of magic and sees the situation.
-Oh, it's terrible! -The fairy Shizuka uses her magic to create a snowfall to neutralize the venom of the poppies, Doraemon looks at the girl helping them
-Thank goodness, is the good fairy of the north- says the scarecrow boy.
-Ugh, I'm going to rust again. Thank goodness you can help me with that now- says Tin Gian.
The snowfall manages to neutralize the sleeping pill, causing Nobita and the Lion to begin to wake up, the good fairy comes over to see if they were okay. -Fairy Shizuka- Nobita says, waking up little by little.
-Are you okay Nobita? Thank goodness I was nearby when I heard your friends asking for help.- The fairy smiles at him while Nobita blushes with worry.
-Yes, I only slept for a little while, thanks for waking us up.- Nobita said blushing while the lion let out a yawn similar to a roar, Doraemon gives the oil can to the scarecrow to help the tin boy while the fairy dissipates the snowfall that it had already neutralized the poison.
-Thank you Northern Fairy- Doraemon smiles and sees Nobita -I admit that I was going to use the Anywhere Door to keep you away from the poppies, but they tried hard to save you.- The blue cat looks at the scarecrow and the tin boy. -Although it's a simulator, they are made based on how you see them and even though you don't like certain things about them, you consider them trustworthy at the end of the day-
Nobita looks at all the beings he made friends with in the Land of Oz and smiles -I guess so-
-I'm so sorry you're going through all this because of the ruby shoes, Nobita. But I have the feeling that you are a good person and that you could handle this situation in the face of the evil of the witch- says the little fairy, somewhat sadly.
The silly boy shakes his head -It's okay, if I can do something to help you, it's worth the risk- That makes fairy Shizuka smile at that answer.
-I'm glad to hear that, I have to go. you are already close to the Emerald City! Be very careful with the tricks of the evil Witch of the West, she will do whatever it takes to get hold of the ruby shoes. Good luck to everyone!- The little fairy flies away through the blue sky while the 5 return to the road, getting closer and closer to reaching the Emerald City and seeing the magician to help them fulfill all of their wishes.
