"Yes, my furry companion. You've never heard of courage being on the outside, it must be inside to be brave! Now drink up, that's a good lad." the Rabbit watched as the Lion quickly lapped up the liquid, and shivered in the aftermath. "How was it?"

"Ick." the Lion made a face.

"But how do you feel?"

"...full of courage! Oh gracias Senor Bad Rabbit Wizard!" the huge beast flung himself at the Rabbit, wrapped his large and powerful arms around him and hugged the living daylights out of him. "I es no scared anymore, I es all proud and brave and, and, gracias senor! Gracias!" But once the Lion returned to the group they all realised what kind of a mess they were in. Could the ex-Wizard now Rabbit really have a way to get Mac and (albeit reluctant) Bloo home again? They all looked to the Rabbit in silence, awaiting his decision.

He smoothed his moustache out (or was it thickly grown whiskers?) in thought. This lasted for quite a while, but no one (not even Bloo) lost interest in watching him to see what he'd do. Finally he smacked his fist into his open palm. "That's it, I've got it. Young master Mac, master Bloo, I can get you back home again quick as a wink! ...well not especially that quick, but I know of a way to get you home."

"You do? For real?" Mac asked, hating to sound so in awe of a liar.

"Yes dear boy. For you see, I came to this land by air. A hot air balloon to be precise. And you yourself was transported here by air as well, whilst yours was an actual house which wasn't designed for flight. Either way, using my old balloon we shall both return to our good ole' land of the brave, and home of the free." Despite the Rabbit being a bit of a humbug, a liar, and a bad wizard, all gathered had to give a happy cheer. It was mixed with sadness, though. Mac and Bloo were going to be leaving, and they had grown oh so close in their time together. But alas, Mac wanted to go home and in his heart of hearts, Bloo did too. Not only for his paddleballs but without Mac how could he continue on, really?

The following day, everything was ready. The large balloon had been set up in the now defunct field of poppies, no longer poisonous or sleep inducing. The whole population of the Emerald City had gathered to finally see their Wizard descend into the heavens from where he apparently came. The red poppy field was over run with the colour green, that being the colour of choice for all the citizens of the city. Surprisingly, unlike how Mac and his friends had reacted, they weren't at all surprised to see their Oz was a Rabbit. He was hailed even more, it would seem. But there was an air of sadness amongst them. To finally see their Wizard, only to see him leave! Irony is a cruel mistress.

"...and so, dearest citizens of Oz, from all walks of life," indeed, there were humans, some Beanielanders, some of the more oddly shaped creatures like the guard of the doors, and a lot of animals as well, "In my stead, I leave the Scarecrow to be in charge of the Emerald City by virtue of his magnificent brains. Treat him as you have me, with all the respect one should expect of a leader." a hearty cheer went up from the crowd as the Rabbit known as Oz shook hands with the Scarecrow, who looked so embarrassed and humbled you'd swear he'd collapse under his emotions.

"I'm sorry but that is so so nice of you to do, really! I'll be the best ruler Oz has had, n-next to you, sir." he had to keep a charade up of course, let them know the Rabbit is still a grand Wizard even if he wasn't.

"And thus, farewell my friends! Think of me, soaring triumphantly through the skies, out shining every star..." the Rabbit went into his speech and as he did, we'll just leave him to his hot air (and not just his balloon) to see Mac stood by the basket the Rabbit is already in. The Scarecrow, having thanked 'Oz' many times already joins him to fix his hair.

"So, are you ready Mac?" he asks,

"Yeah... I guess so. I mean, I wanna go home but I'm going to miss you guys a lot."

"Co coco co co co, coco coco..." the Tin Bird said, her metallic palm leaves atop her head drooping slightly. The Lion was visibly upset, but he luckily wasn't bawling how he has in the past or else he would have rusted the Tin Bird and made the Scarecrow soggy. No one wants a soggy leader.

"We is going to miss you so much senor Mac!" the Lion wept, pulling him into a hug in those massive purple arms.

"I'm gonna miss you all too and-wait. Where's Bloo?" All looked around. The blue imaginary was no where to be found. Was he late, or had he run away so he wouldn't leave? Who knew, when it came to Bloo.

"Uh oh." the Scarecrow said. "This isn't good, from what I've heard the 'Wizard' is very strict and doesn't allow for delays! He's set the balloon launch for two pm sharp, and it's already one fifty something!"
