Ok, people. This is a latteral thinking puzzle. You have to explain the situation. Like, we've all seen the one that says, 'two people come home to find a dead body on the floor surrounded...explain?' And you would reply, 'The body is a fish.'

This is story of Wizard of Oz.
the gal named Dorothy other characters are Toto, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion
One day a cyclone appears outside and before Dorothy can reach the storm cellar, the farmhouse is caught up in the cyclone . The falling house kills the Wicked Witch of the East, who had established a reign of terror over the Munchkins.
As Dorothy, Toto, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion travel across the Winkie Country, the Wicked Witch sends wolves, crows, bees, and then her Winkie soldiers to attack them; but each threat is dispatched by the travelers.
At Glinda's palace, the travelers are greeted warmly, and it is revealed by Glinda that Dorothy had the power to go home all along. The Silver Shoes she wears can take her anywhere she wishes to go. She tearfully embraces her friends—all of whom will be returned, through Glinda's use of the Golden Cap, to their respective sovereignties: the Scarecrow to the Emerald City, the Tin Woodman to the Winkie Country, and the Cowardly Lion to the forest. Then she will give the Cap to the king of the Winged Monkeys, so they will never be under its spell again. Dorothy and Toto return to Kansas and a joyful family reunion.
Some scholars have asserted that the images and characters used by Baum and Denslow closely resembled political images that were well known in the 1890s. They state that Baum and Denslow did not simply invent the Lion, Tin Man, Scarecrow, Yellow Brick Road, Silver Slippers, cyclone, monkeys, Emerald City, little people, Uncle Henry, passenger balloons, witches and the wizard. These were all common themes in the editorial cartoons of the previous decade. Baum and Denslow, like most writers, used the materials at hand that they knew best. They built a story around them, added Dorothy, and added a series of lessons to the effect that everyone possesses the resources they need (such as brains, a heart and courage) if only they had self confidence. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was a children’s book, of course, but as Baum warned in the preface, it was a "modernized" fairy tale as well.

It could be Dorothy and the story of the Wiz. of Oz but...she didn't actually MEET the Wicked Witch of the East...her house just landed on her. She didn't know about the witch's death until it was pointed out to her. The first person Dorothy actually MET was Glinda the Good Witch...and Dorothy didn't kill her now did she...All of this is leading to IF the The Wiz. of Oz is the answer to this lateral thinking question...other than that - consider me stumped.

the first killing was inadvertant- it was a result of a crash landing she had no control over. She soon finds , though, that the death was beneficial to the inhabitants of the country she crash landed in. In her journey to find her way back home, she meets three strangers who are on their own journeys but coincidently are all going in the same direction. On the way they realize that the country is still under oppression by a cohort of the person she killed inadvertantly and in order to expediate the realization of their journey, they seek to kill the second person and free the inhabitants of the land from the oppression once and for all
