Background[edit | edit source]
The Wicked Witch of the West controlled three counties of Oz with her sister, The Wicked Witch of the East thanks to the power of the ruby slippers worn by her sister. One day a house came down and killed the Wicked Witch of the East. The Wicked Witch of the West came quickly to discover what happened. She looked for the ruby slippers but she could not find them on her sister's feet. Her good sister Glinda the Good Witch of the North told her that the slippers are now on Dorothy Gale's feet. The Wicked Witch of the West asked Dorothy to hand her the shoes but she won't. The Wicked Witch of the West claimed she'll get the ruby slippers from Dorothy and kill her and her dog, and she then leaves. When Dorothy's was walking down the yellow brick road with The Scarecrow and The Tin Man, the Wicked Witch of the West attacked them with fire.
Unsuccessful in a plot to kill them she returned to her castle. She decided on her next plan to kill Dorothy, make poppies that will make her fall into an enchanted sleep. When the plan began to work it was quickly foiled by Glinda who created snow to wake Dorothy and The Lion up. Annoyed, the Wicked Witch of the West flew on her broom and wrote in the sky "Surrender Dorothy". This frightened Dorothy and her friends and it didn't help when the Wizard of Oz sent them on a quest to steal the Wicked Witch of the West's broom. The Wicked Witch of the West sent her winged monkeys to go out and capture Dorothy and Toto, and they did so. The winged monkeys brought the two to the castle of the Wicked Witch of the West. Toto escaped and told The Lion, The Scarecrow and The Tinman where Dorothy is. They came and rescued her, furious the Wicked Witch of the West chased them. The Wicked Witch of the West tried to kill them off one by one, firstly she lit The Scarecrow on fire. Dorothy attempted to save the Scarecrow by drenching him in a bucket of water.
