- That was the year you remembered so vividly. You see, earlier that year, a tornado had suddenly whisked you away from your homeland and brought you to a place called Oz. Everything was whimsical, and everyone was different. Some were animals, some were humans. Some were munchkins, and some were toys. Or they were simply... Themselves.
After you had returned, everyone had thought you had gone mad. Which is why your aunt recently sent you to a shock-therapist. He claimed to have a machine which would 'fix' your mind. Your aunt had to leave to mind your uncle with a broken bone, so you were required to spend a night at these extremely eerie hospital. They had strapped you to a hospital bed, and sent you down to the doctor with the machine. But luckily, the power was cut moments before the machine started up. While the doctors ran around frantically, a mysterious girl, only a mere twelve or so, freed you from the hospital bed, and escaped to the river with you. But unfortunately, she had drowned. You fell unconscious one moment, and the next, you arrived in Oz.
Now, It had been a few days since you arrived back In Oz after months. Everything was in ruin. Trees surrounded the yellow brick road, the yellow brick road was overtaken by nature and the bricks were out of place, there was practically no one in sight, and even the Emerald city was in ruins. Everyone had been turned into stone. Even your precious friends. Except for one: the Nutcracker, Vil.
You were happy that at least, you had him. You had even found a new friend - it was a robot named Tik-Tok. Tik-Tok claimed to be a general. But he had been practically rotting in a small room for ages, and hadn't been used. You often had to twist the small key on his back whenever he suddenly stopped moving. He looked quite elderly, to say the least. He was quite nice, protecting you from the wheelers whilst Vil was elsewhere. However, the three of you had the absolutely wonderful idea to go visit Princess Mombi. But you soon discovered she wasn't a sweet nor kind princess as she claimed to be. She had a collection of women's heads that she often used as her own. And she had decided she had use for yours. So she dragged up to the highest tower in her palace, and said she would keep you there for a few years until your head was 'ready'. Tik-Tok was also with you, and he had practically stopped moving by now. All you were able to wait for now was Vil. You hated this tower; it was messy, dark, and was full of dust and old furniture.
Was Vil going to be able to find you? You hoped he did. Princess Mombi was a dangerous woman, after all. She was incredibly scary, and she had very strong magic at the tips of her fingers.
