"They drink the potion?"
"No!" said Old Magda with a cackle. "You are the only one foolish enough to do that."
"What do you mean?" said Dorothy. Old Magda simply laughed her creaky laugh.
Dorothy remembered the tingling feeling of the water in the pool. How much had she drunk? A lot. She'd even soaked in it. Her stomach growled. The sleeves of her shirt suddenly seemed tighter around her arms.

The towering figure coughed and spat out wet globs of earth that stuck to the ground, forming craters.
"Ohhh..." it said, rubbing showers of dirt from its face.
The Wizard and Toto craned their necks upward, ready to run again.
"Dorothy?" shouted the Wizard.
The figure looked around, huge eyes blinking in the dirt-caked face.
"Dorothy!" shouted the Wizard again. Toto barked.
The figure seemed to hear, and looked down at them. "Oh, no," she said. "I-I grew."
