Kuki starred down at the old dirt path that started down the dark woods. She didn't know why, the woods just gave her bad vibes. The tin girl on one side, the scare crow on the other, and Kuki in the middle, the group stepped down the old trail. Brittle thorn covered vines snaked their way along the sides, the forrest floor easing on to the path. Rain water from a long past storm dripped onto the backs of their necks like blood from teared skin. Toto scurried on ahead, sniffing at every bush and bramble along the way. A loud HOOT of an owl caused him to jump back, landing in the brush far beyond the beaten track.
"TOTO!" Kuki screamed, tearing off into to wood.
Vines grabbed at her dress and bare legs, causing rips in both cloth and skin. Kuki burst into a clearing. Toto sat in the middle, starring at somthing unseen.
"Oh Toto, I was so..." Kuki trailed off.
Her eyes connected with somthing in the dark. For a split second, her heart froze. Luckily, her friends appearered before the *somthing* did.
"Ow, ouch, HEY, jezze, watch it!" The tin girl cried out wile she scrambled through the brush, well, before tripping over a vine.
The Scare Crow soon followed, as a bonus, he tripped over the same vine.
"Hey Kuki, did you fin Toto, because we've got to..... oh crud." the Scare Crow gasped.
Right in front of them crouched a 5 foot tall, golden haired,......Lion. No one could speak. The Scare Crow even uttered a squeak. Which was pretty scary in itself, for most thought boys were born without a squeak gland. The lion let out a roar. The Group stared, and stared, and stared some more. It ended with a mixsture of histerical laughing, rolling around on the ground, and the clutching of ribs. You see, it was not as frierce as the roars from Lion King. No, not as fierce as the roars in the Jungle Book. Not even at eye to eye with George of the Jungle. In basic terms, Disney specials with talking rainbow colored animals had fiercer roars.

"Hey! Why doesn't my character get a feircer part?!?!!?'
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF ONE MORE PERSON STEPS INTO MY NARRATION BOOTH, I WILL ROB A TOYS R US, GRAB A X BOX, THEN BEAT SAID PERSON OVER THE HEAD WITH IT UNTILLTHEY LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS!!!"
"Ok, ok, but why can't..."
"Numbuh 2, if you say another word, I'll punch you so hard your goggles will spin.
"All I..."
"Get out!'
"But if..."
"Out!"
"Shouldn't it...
"OUT!!!"
"I just want to..."
"Oh look, there is an empty seat next to Numbuh 1000!"
"See ya!" *cloud of dust, door slams shut*
"The people I work with..."

Taking a look at his claws, The Tin Girl quieted her laughing.
"Wait, you aren't going to claw us to death, are you?" she questioned.
The Lion sighed and sat down.
'No, I couldn't hurt a fly."
"Phew, good, I couldn't take much more today."
"I'm not a very good lion, am I?"
"Well, I've seen worse."
"Really?"
"No.'
"I figured."
"Sorry."
"It's ok. But why do you have to go throught his forest? It's kinda spooky in here."
"Tell me about it. We're off to see the wizard, and so far it's been wuppin our butts." piped up the Scare Crow.
"The wizard? She could make me courageous, right?"
"Yep"
"Can I come?"
"What is it gonna hurt?" Kuki shrugged as she loaded Toto into her basket.
"Then I guess then there is one final stop untill we get to the home of the Wizard." sighed the Tin Girl
"What?" asked Kuki.
"The Emerald City."
