The Witches of Oz Page #8

Now give me the rest

of the key, Dorothy.

Do you always have to make things

more difficult than they need to be?

Stop!

How about a little fire,

Scarecrow?!

No.

The key.

Don't!

Are you going to save him?

No!

Oh, come on, Dorothy,

you can save him.

Please!

Stop all these games.

Hand it over.

No!

Oh, my God!

Get up. Let's do this

the right way.

You first.

Give it up Tin Man.

No one beats the Nome King!

Yeah!

Yes!

I can't let you die, Allen.

You're gonna be OK!

Dorothy, why?

Why did you give that to her?

You shouldn't have given it to her.

I didn't have a choice.

Oh, no. She'll destroy

everything.

I need you, Allen,

I didn't have a choice.

We can't give up.

Not now.

Finally!

it's no use.

I told you Tin Man.

No one beats the Nome King!

All right.

Pretty, pretty.

Hello.

I wish I could be there

in person, but

a deal is a deal.

I'm sure you're looking

as lovely as ever.

Before I became

the omnipotent

and all powerfull

ruler of Oz

I was a magician

with a travelling circus!

Before that, I did some time.

with the Omaha Playhouse.

My King Lear

was impeccable.

You may be asking

yourself why, at this moment,

at the time of your victory,

I would show up

and recite my resume.

I just wanted you

to understand how

I managed to bring this off

A little slight-of-hand

and some thespian work

was your undoing.

For you, my old friend,

have been beaten.

You've been tricked.

Bamboozled.

Hoodwinked.

Smoked.

What?!

The key in your hand

is not the key to the book.

Even if it were

it wouldn't matter.

The book that is undoubtedly

in your other hand,

is also a fake.

Inside is a copy of the

Declaration of Independence

and the full text

of the Constitution.

No!

Yes!

You're in trouble now.

Oh, quickly Dorothy.

OK, I've got it.

When the time is right,

the key will work.

It will unlock your memories,

so put it in a safe place.

My friends

will help me hide it.

Oh, no, no, don't tell me!

I don't like

that kind of pressure.

The less I know, the better.

Oh, shame about the book.

Give me the book, Wizard!

I'm coming.

The problem with Oz

is all the witches.

Presenting her royal

wickedness,

the Witch of the West!

You must agree to never

try and fetch it back.

No tricks.

Whatever happens, Dorothy,

stick to the plan.

She can't suspect

it's a trick.

No, she won't.

You have my word.

I will never,

ever personally

do anything against you.

- Dorothy, do it.

- I can't.

- No.

- Let her go.

You can't let her de...

But now even the Wizard

know the error of his ways.

You must see

this is not your destiny.

Leave this place.

- Where's the key?!

- Oh, oh, that.

Toodles.

No!

Too late.

Your head is mine.

Fine, then I'll take yours.

I can't believe that you...

and that miserable

wizard lied.

It's over, Billie.

You have no key,

no book, no power.

I beg to differ.

I don't like surrender,

but a fight to the death?

Now that sounds fun.

But we're friends.

You're my

best friend, Billie.

Please stop this.

Friends?

Friends.

I hate to break it to you

but I lied.

All those things

you did for me.

Lies, all of it.

We had fun together.

I was using you!

We are friends.

The cyclone

is almost coming,

I don't need to listen

to nonsense.

Shut up!

Oh, no.

We can't outrun it.

Come on, Dorothy.

You admitted that you

had forgotten about Oz.

Oz...

I didn't want to,

but this place,

it just makes you forget.

- We will get you home, I promise.

- What do you mean?

It's a vortex portal,

one-way ticket to Oz.

It's not a tornado?

Looks like a tornado.

Enough talk.

Go ahead, do your worst.

I'm ready!

I could vaporize you,

turn you into a tiny, little

bug that I keep in my pocket.

Yes, yes a beetle.

Oh, you should.

You're all powerful Dorothy.

You killed the

Witch of the East.

You're the greatest witch

this world has ever seen.

Don't listen

to her, Dorothy!

I am.

Finally!

Finally, you understand

all this saving people,

protecting munchkins

and talking to zoo animals

What's the point?

This world is dark and cold,

full of death.

But you killed

the Witch of the East.

Take her place.

Not just in Oz, here.

Everywhere.

I will show you.

Just close your eyes.

What a day.

I don't want you

to show me.

Why can't you understand?

What happened to you?

Don't you care at all?

I know who I am.

People die...

and it breaks my heart,

but all I can do is try.

Please... help me try.

Don't you see?

You could be somebody good.

Somebody great.

Don't you see?

You're just

a little girl.

Why is it so hard

to defeat...

one little girl?

You're slaves, all of you!

The word.

The Changing Word.

What have you done?

You could do anything,

and you do this?

Why?

I won't hurt you.

You're free to stay

or to go.

It's up to you.

I've never had friends.

Only slaves.

Look at me.

You made me cry.

You made me cry.

You made me cry.

Billie.

- Did you hurt me?

- No.

It's not supposed

to be like this!

Good bye.

No.

Thank you.

Is that it?

Is it over?

Dorothy.

Only Dorothy and the Scarecrow

would remember

that night.

The night that

the Wicked Witch of the West

was finally defeated.

The nigh! Dorothy Gale

remembered who she really is.

Hey, sorry I'm late.

That's OK.

I should be late more often.

- You go first.

- Hey, you go first.

- No, you go first.

- You wanna go first?

- Yeah, I'll go first!

- You sure?

- Yeah, sure.

- All right, you go first.

Yeah, I'll go first.

Wish me luck.

All right, good luck.

Bye!

That hurt?

- Stand up!

- I can't.

Try. The dog's coming.

So do you fancy

Italian or Chinese?

Fried chicken!

Not one of the choices,

but OK.

Hey, what is that song?

Just a little thing

I've been working on.

I like it.

Thanks.

I'm serious, man.

This is crazy. Where are we?

- We are in Oz.

- Where's Oz? Is that in Jersey?

- I don't know.

- Well, then how do you know it's Oz?

Because why you were asleep,

the talking sunflower told me.

I told you guys, you can't park here.

We gotta get out of here.

This is too weird.

I think there was

something in our coffee.

Hey, there! You guys lost?

Maybe I can help.
