Just then, Oscar heard a loud screech from deep in the forest. " What was that?".

The woman's face turned ashen. " The Wicked Witch's monkeys". She pointed toward the forest. " She sent them to kill you".

Oscar gave her a puzzled look. " What do we do now?".

" My suggestion". She pointed toward the forest. " Is run".

They ran across ravines and down hills. Eventually, they found a cave by a waterfall. They crawled inside to hide.

Oscar frowned. " I don't like witches".

She smiled. " That's interesting".

" Why is that?".

" I am a witch". She grinned. " I'm Theodora the Good".

Just then, Oscar heard a loud screech by the cave's entrance. " What was that?".

Theodora frowned. " One of the witches monkeys". She stared at Oscar. " Wizard, is there anything you can do?".

Oscar reached into his coat pocket. He took out a dove. He let it fly out the entrance to the cave. The screeching stopped.

" Smart idea Wizard".
