**As jake7, Mai, and Soul head down the hallway toward DinoLand, jake7 can't help but think there something familiar about this...**
Suddenly, I feel like Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, all we need is a dog, a yellow brick road, and one more person to make the scenario complete!

"Wait...so who does that make me? And who is Mai, for that matter?"
Soul ponders it for a moment.
"I guess I could be the Tin Man. No clue where my wife or daughter are, much less all my friends, so the lack of a heart would probably work better than no brains or courage--"
At that moment, Mai leans forward and blows gently on the back of Soul's neck, causing him to yelp and jump, spinning around while clawing at the back of his neck. "Get it off! Get it off!!!"
In between laughs, Jake7 manages to proclaim Soul to be, "Cowardly Lion!!!"

Well we do have flying monkeys!
Also, clearly I would be Glenda! (apart from the pink sparkles, she is made of awesome just like me!)

Suddenly, the halls fill with mist, and an eerie grinding of stone on stone echos across the room.
An obsidian sarcophagus opens, the heavy lid landing on the floor with a crash as it shatters to pieces.
From the depths of the now exumed "grave" a red eye glows dimly.
"I gotta stop waking up in these eerie ass places..." the figure mutters to itself before sitting up and cracking his neck in a few dozen places. Vaulting nimbly from the stone, the figure reaches back and draws forth a battered black duffel bag before settling his leather trench coat about his shoulders. Jake Wolfe has returned, looking years older, slightly wiser, and more demonic as his eyes have changed to a faintly glowing blood red, and his hair to a jet black.
He looks up, squinting through the mist at the figures discussing the Earth-That-Still-Is movie/book/play...thing that is The Wizard of Oz.
"....Mai?!"

Hey Jake, Soul... did one of you order a dead guy?

**At Mai's question, jake7 is shaken out of her confused state, brought on by stumbling across this stranger in the hallway who appeared out of nowhere in an odd, rock sort of thing**
Um...no...Soul?
**she looks at him and finds him staring confusedly at this stranger in their midst as well. She nudges him**
Soul??

Suddenly, A wild pool table appears! From under it crawls your beloved ex-captain, and commodore-for-life, Ebo!
She is still a girl but forgot her password years ago.
Hows' it going, kids!?

**jake7 sees their old captain crawl out from under the pool table and shrieks**
EBO!!!!!!!!!!
**she runs over and gives her a bone crushing hug**
It's been too long! How are you? Where have you been?
**the questions just come rushing out and jake7 stops to take in a calming breath**
It is seriously good to see you again!
