"Jeepers" cried Uncle Scottso, the youngest of the four rats, "Now we have an evil witch mad at us! What'll we do, Elwood?" he said looking pleadingly at his oldest brother. "Don't you worry Scottso, no evil witch is going to have us for supper!" "We'll find the other three pieces of magic cheese and be home before she knows we are gone." "Yes, we will" agreed Mars, "She's never dealt with Kansas Rats before! Why we can outsmart her any old day". Otis chimed in with more reasuring words for the smallest rat. "That's right Scottso, don't you worry about her being mad at us...well she is probably one of those even dispositioned witches...she's probably mad all the time!" Even the good witch chuckled along with them in response to Otis's joke. "I have heard the Rat Wizard has one piece of the magic cheese", said the good witch, "He will surely give it to you if you ask, and help you get back home. If the magic cheese goes home with you then we will all be safe from the evil witch because then surely she will never posses all the slices of the magic cheese and will never again have power over us.

With those words of encouragement, the little rats got directions to the palace of the rat wizard. Elwood put the piece of magic cheese in a bag and they all headed down a wonderful golden road made of cheese.
