A Fight for Love
Chapter One
(Sarah is our choice)
Sarah sat in the park looking out at the trees. She had a lot of friends and her family and she had become close but she always felt like something was missing. The dark haired girl missed the magic of the Labyrinth. Sarah had always immersed herself in fairytales but they didn't seem to be enough anymore. Not after being in the Underground.
She sighed wondering if she would ever see the Goblin King again. The girl knew she'd hurt him but she couldn't surrender her brother so selfishly. It was her mistake and she had to correct it. Even at the cost of her happiness.
Hearing a clock chime she looked at it. Her time in the park was up. "I miss you Jareth. I miss you and your Labyrinth." Sadly she got up and slowly made her way home.
Sitting on a branch just out of view was a white barn owl. Even in owl form you could see his sadness. The King watched her until she was out of view before leaving the branch and heading back to his own world.
If he hadn't been so focused on Sarah he might have noticed a pair of doves.
"Isn't there anything we can do mother?" Princess Selina asked.
Queen Jasmine materialized next to her daughter. "No. Sarah must find her own way back to the underground."
"We can't help her?" Selina begged.
"Sarah…" Seeing her daughter's pleading eyes she sighed. "We cannot directly help her." The princess looked at her mother questioningly. "We can guide her to where she can gain knowledge but as the High Queen and princess we cannot interfere."
Selina smiled as understanding came to her. While they couldn't tell her where to go or what to do there were ways of giving her hints. "Thank you mother." Selina instantly transformed to her dove form and flew away.
"What are you doing?" The High King demanded appearing before his wife.
"You may have made your choice husband but Sarah is mine." Queen Jasmine announced.
"You're choice isn't even in the underground."
"Sarah will find her way. She'll be there."
"She's Human and mortal. Havanah is Fae and from a very powerful family," King Riodan reminded his wife.
"Jareth Loves Sarah and she loves him."
"You don't know that."
"Yes husband I do. You may have gotten your way where Torrance is concerned but not Jareth. I will see him married to the woman he loves!" The queen disappeared in a shower of petals.
King Riodan shook his head. "What is it with dramatic females?" He huffed. Once he knew his wife was gone he smirked. "For once I hope I am wrong." He waived his hand and disappeared.
Selina flew toward the Victorian house that belonged to Sarah's parents. She landed on a branch and watched. The girl was inside reading to her brother. The High Princess transformed. With a smile she reached to a nearby flower and with a wave of her hand a tiny fairy appeared.
"Luna, I need your help."
"Highness," The tiny creature said with a bow.
"You see the girl there?"
"Is that not the Champion of the Labyrinth?" The fairy said recognizing her. Selina nodded confirming the fairy's recognition. "What would you have me do?"
"Watch over her Luna. Alert me if danger comes her way."
"Protect her?"
"Yes," Selina told her. "Protect the woman I want as my brother's wife." The princess almost laughed at seeing the fairy beam with joy. "Careful. She must be kept secret at least until she reaches the underground. I will do what I can but you may need to assist her at times."
"I will do it!" The blue fairy said happily. "I will not fail you my Princess."
"Luna before you say yes completely you must understand your queen may object," Selina warned. "She may wish to see Havanah as Jareth's wife."
The tiny creature crossed her arms and scowled. "Havanah is not worthy of being King Jareth's wife. I will obey you and protect Lady Sarah. She will make the Labyrinth and the King Happy again."
"Even against your queen?" The High Princess questioned.
"I swear my allegiance to you first High Princess. I will look after our chosen." Selina nodded pleased and in a shower of petals like her mother she disappeared.
"Havanah…no!" Luna said and getting closer to the window sat in a flower to watch more closely.
