Abbi's Fan Fic Draft One
Why the Wicked Witch Really Hates Dorothy and Toto. (First Darft)
Everybody who saw the strange bunch gathered together would realise that this was a strange affair. Between the kaleidoscope of colours, mis-matched outfits, witches hats, robes, munchkins and flying monkeys anyone could see that what was taking place was a little out of the ordinary. These she lay her face as green as the emerald city with her robes ebony black she lay motionless, the wicked witch of the east. Her sister, of course the wicked witch of the west, was front and centre sobbing into her witches hat with her monkeys at her side, and Dorothy with her sparkling ruby slippers standing to her left. Despite the fact that Dorothy’s house had landed on the WWE and she had stolen the prized Ruby slippers the WWW had appreciated Dorothy turning up to share her condolences. After all it wasn’t her fault and the WWW wasn’t an unreasonable lady.
Dorothy having lived in Kansas her whole life had never seen anything like this before and was amazed by all of the different creatures that had arrived, as many of them were with her. A pretty young girl with dark brown hair and beautiful brown eyes she was quite a stunner and many of the old warlocks and wizards realised this (to their wives dismay). Standing so close to the deceased family gave all of these men chance to get close to her and introduce themselves. After meeting Merlin, Albus Dumbledore, Gandalf she finally met Harry Potter. Young and handsome he caught her eye immediately, and I’m sure she would’ve caught his if his pesky ginger wife hadn’t have been around.
After the beautiful service at the wake Harry and Dorothy’s paths crossed again. Dorothy was in the kitchen getting some more ice and Harry had wandered. Ginny (Harry’s wife) was in the dining room talking to one of the old wizards Dorothy hadn’t met in the corner so this was the perfect time to make an impression. “Did you know the WWE well?”
“Oh yeah she’s Ginny’s great Aunt. Didn’t really have much to do with her, you know since she was into the dark arts and stuff but I heard she was ok, left us lots of gold too. How about yourself?”
Dorothy suddenly became more intrigued with the mention of gold. “Gold, wow how much did she leave you?” She realised she sounded a bit desperate so toned it down a bit. “ I uh…” she thought she better not tell him she was the real reason behind her death so instead she thought on her feet “I used to do her hair. Don’t you think it looks great? Almost as beautiful as my hair, don’t you think?”
“Oh yeah”, harry replied slightly confused because even from under the hat no hair was even visible.
He turned to have a real look at Dorothy to see how really beautiful her hair was and was blown away at what a looker she really was. He hadn’t noticed it before but now he could really see how stunning she was. “Well I’d have to say your hair is very beautiful but it is nothing compared to your amazing body”
She leaned in slowly and their lips touched. With every second their embrace became more passionate.
“What are you doing Harry?” Ginny shrieked and she saw them locked together.
“I … Uh… " he stumbled
“That’s it after the skank Hermoine you said never again! Expellidogarius!” and with a loud crack Harry disappeared and on the floor in a crumpled dark heap lay a little
Cairn terrier.
Dorothy quickly scooped him up and ran to the door. People were looking around for the commotion that was happening around them. Just as she made it to the door way the WWW appeared in front of her. “Where are you going” she said with a snarl, obviously the new had already gotten to her.
“I um I have to go back to Kansas”. Dorothy lied.
“You’re a liar and a murdered. And I am going to get you my pretty! You and your little dog too!” and with that Dorothy ran down the yellow brick road as fast how she could until she came to a fork in the road with a scarecrow hanging in the middle…
This is my first draft, not how correct the spelling and grammar is. I found it really hard to write and am nervous about posting it so any feed back would be awesome!
Thanks

I like it sounds imaginative and well written.
ReplyDeleteAbbi I find your fanfic to be quite comical, in a good way. I didn't realise that yours is another crossover fanfic as well, until the end.
ReplyDeleteAs outlined in your last comment, I did pick up a bit of errors. But hey, it is a draft after all.
Keep the idea going because it does work well.
Looks interesting - a bit of editing is needed here and there - the odd comma - murdered >>> murderer
ReplyDeletecan quite follow this:
"These she lay her face as green as the emerald city with her robes ebony black she lay motionless, the wicked witch of the east"
some nice turns of phrase
that should read can't quite follow this ...
ReplyDeleteordinary. "These she lay her face as green as the emerald city with her robes ebony black she lay motionless, the wicked witch of the east"
Having only seen the movie once it's a little hard for me to relate the plot to the post. The idea sounds good almost, written in a cartoon like fashion which I think keeps with the movie very well. Dorothy needs love just like all of us. Kind of impossible in the early movie to include this plot due to the time of production the 1940's I think. We defiantly need a modern revision. Look forward to see how it all unfolds.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frank I know I really should have proof read more thoroughly. I have made the changes for my final copy.
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
Like Alex the last time I saw the Wizard of Oz was when I was 10, so I only have a vague memory of what happened.
ReplyDeleteNonetheless I thought the vivid description of the opening scene meant it didn't really matter if the reader have never seen the movie before.
I thought the crossover of the Harry Potter fan fic was quite seemless and gave the fan fic a hilarious twist which I liked (reference to Hermoine was classic!).
Some grammatical errors made the fan fic a bit disjointed at times, but once those are amended I believe it will not be an issue.
I just have to say you guys all seem to have a very active imaginations!
