Chapter 22
Chapter 1
**********************************************************************************************
Megamind stared at the sickly green liquid in shock of what had happened. The Wizard hadn’t been surprised to see him … almost like he was expecting him. The Wizard had been guiding them around the room as they talked, had it been his intention to put Megamind in this pool of acid? Yet if it was, what had changed his mind? Was it that he thought Megamind could be his … Megamind shook his head, it was no use to think like this, there was only thing that mattered now … if he hadn’t of come here, the Wizard would still be alive. He was responsible for his death, oh how he had wanted to assassinate the Wizard those years ago, if only he had known how simple it would have been. Yet now he felt … regret.
Megamind wasn’t sure what to do, yet he found himself sealing off the Wizard’s quarters and fleeing the palace from its windows. When he arrived in Kiamo Ko, he was ragged and knew he had little time now before the travelers would be here for his jet broom. A gift for the Wizard who wasn’t even alive anymore, he couldn’t let anyone know he had been responsible for the death of the Wizard of Oz.
“Minion” he ran over to his companion, “I need your help”
Minion looked up at him and noticed the panic in his eyes, “What is it, Sir?”
“A little hitman gang is coming here soon to rob me of my jet broom, we mustn’t let them … we have to get the ring from that Dorothy Gale girl.”
Minion nodded, “would you prefer them to make it to the castle or be lost in the forest?”
“I would like them to make it to the castle, how else am I supposed to get the ring?”
“Then we have a problem” Minion gestured to the looking glass, Megamind looked. It showed the travelers who were indeed, lost
He sighed, “Oh, Minion, why must I always be in the presence of such incompetence? Send the alligators out to guide them here”
“Yes, sir” Minion walked off to do so as Megamind sat down in front of the looking glass, watching the group intently.
Once his alligators had reached them, the group panicked and in so doing scared his beloved pets. One of the alligators snapped at the scarecrow’s leg, however the scarecrow seemed unafraid and simply flicked some straw into the gator’s eyes, causing it to withdraw from its attack. The tin man took advantage and wielded his axe high before lowering it down and chopping off the gator’s head.
Megamind gasped as the tin man, with the Lion’s help, killed more and more of his beloved pets. He stared at the looking glass in shock, it was true that his idea of a pet was not the same as another person’s, but that was no reason to slaughter them like this! He screamed, “Brainbots!” his trusty machinations came flying to his side, “Go and bring that wretched girl … and her little dog here unharmed. I don’t care what you do with the others” he spat out the last part as he watched hundreds of his brainbots zooming out of the castle to capture the girl and bring her back.
Once the girl had arrived and some of his brainbots had redressed him a new suit and cape, he entered the room she was in, in the topmost tower. He looked at her whimpering form with disgust, “Hello, Miss Gale”
She started crying harder, “Oh, please don’t hurt me”
He rolled his eyes, “You came here to kill me, remember?”
The girl seemed surprised, “I never wanted to kill you”
“How exactly did you intend to get this?” he gestured to the jet broom he held in his hand
“I … hadn’t exactly thought it through. I really just want to go home, please … please just let me go home” She fell back into blubbering sobs
“Oh, it’s not up to me whether you go home or not” he stepped closer to her, “but if you don’t give me that ring, you’ll never leave this castle again” he felt somewhat strange threatening the crying girl … mostly because it seemed like she believed him. It was strange holding somewhat captive who was actually afraid of him
She started hyperventilating, “No, please, the good wizard of the north told me not to”
He massaged his fingers along his forehead; this girl was far more difficult than she needed to be. He turned and looked at the brainbots carrying a basket and opened the lid, showing her dog inside before closing it again. Her eyes widened, he didn’t really care about her tortured expression, if she was willing to allow his pets to be slaughtered … why should he care about hers. “Throw him in the river”
“No, wait!” she jumped up, “I’ll give it to you, just don’t hurt Toto”
He nodded and the brainbot lowered the basket with the dog back to the table. He held his hand out to the girl to take the ring only to be shocked by some kind of warding spell. His eyes widened, he wasn’t sure if it was Norman’s or Glimmer’s doing … but it was there and he would have to figure out how to break it. “I didn’t expect that, never mind, I’ll figure it out” he quickly turned
It was then that the dog jumped out of the basket and somehow managed to escape all of his guards and leave the castle entirely. He was shocked, useless guards they were … and terrible aims, he’d have to teach them a thing or two about marksmanship. He looked at Dorothy who seemed to be thrilled by this turn of events. He had to bring her back down; he couldn’t stand someone feeling so happy around him … not when he felt the way he did. He looked at an hourglass on the table and smirked … the perfect way to upset her.
“See this clock” he turned it over and saw the red sand begin to fall down into the bottom, “When the sand runs out … you’re out of time”
Her lip quivered as she dissolved into sobs once again. He left the room in a hurry; he wasn’t keen on staying in there with her. He pressed his back against the door, listening to her crying for her aunt. This was terrible, not only was he unable to get the ring, not only had he been responsible for the deaths of several people, not only had he lost everyone he cared for other than Minion, now he had set an exact time for his first actual murder to take place.
Minion heard sir’s voice coming from around the corner, he sounded insane. What was he saying? Something about an Auntie Em … Minion saw him cackling and his hands writhing about around him … he looked like a maniac. He grabbed his shoulders and shook him until he actually looked at him, “Sir … sir, you’re losing it”
Megamind took a deep breath and nodded, before looking at Minion in a very serious way, “I know what I have to do now, but I need your help to do it”
