Red-Butterfly4Cat: Ugh, so the move failed to happen and I'm still stuck living with my mother, who's 40 years older than me. Anyway, I've got Labyrinth on dvd and have been quite obsessed with it lately. I like Celtic mythology anyway, so I decided to write a story. Made a new OC for it too….thinking of making it the first in a series too.

Disclaimer: Red-Butterfly4Cat does not own Labyrinth, that honour goes to the late Jim Henson. The only things I own are Tesni, Finn, Aderyn and Eoghan. And anything that comes from my own mind.

Prologue

(Tesni's POV)

Hi there, my name's Tesni Bleddthyn. I live in Wales with my brother, Finn, my mother, Aderyn, and my father, Eoghan. I'm 22 and I was born in the autumn (fall to Americans ^_^) in September to be precise. I love to read about Celtic mythology and fairies and things like that.

I'm a bit of a bookworm and not very social. Finn's the social butterfly of the family, I'm more of a hedgehog or something. Anyway, I recently went to my local bookshop and discovered a smallish red book on one of the shelves. It didn't have a price on, which was odd, so I opened it, thinking that there might be something in it with a price for it. There wasn't anything in there that was expected. Instead there was a message.

"Tesni Sianna Bleddthyn, I left this book where I knew you would find it. Don't worry, I'm not a crazy stalker. It's me, Mr Maddox."

(Normal POV)

Tesni blushed a little. She had always been fond of the handsome Mr Maddox, the bookshop owner, ever since he had come to Bethesda. She went to the door of the bookshop, after putting the book in her bag, and looked over her shoulder at the man behind the till. Mr Maddox had smiled at her, his odd blue eyes twinkling.

His eyes were odd because in his left eye, the pupil was permanently dilated. He had told her cheerfully, when she asked him, that he had been hit in the eye, causing the dilation, in his youth. She had smiled at him and informed him that it was unique and she found that good. He had laughed at the idea of his uniqueness being a good thing.

It was almost as though he hated being unique, she thought as she got ready for bed that night. She brushed through her curly golden hair and sighed. She looked at her reflection in her vanity's mirror, noting how the moonlight made her amber-gold eyes almost shimmer. She finished with her hair and lay out the clothes she had chosen for the next day, before crawling into her bed and going to sleep.

(Dream)

Tesni woke in a strange room. She usually dreamed of waking in strange rooms, but something was different this time. She wasn't alone. A man with pointy ears sat at the edge of the bed she lay in. Obviously an elf, with piercing crimson eyes and knee length white hair, with a deep tan.

He watched her with a smile on his handsome face, illuminated by the candles in the room. He stood and bowed politely. When he spoke, his voice made her feel nervous, yet entranced.

"My lady."

She blinked and pointed at him.

"You're an elf."

He laughed lightly, a rich, warm sound. He nodded at her, smiling.

"One would think you've never seen an elf before."

She blushed slightly, hardly noticeable. Then the room shook and shimmered slightly, and then….she woke up.

Ok….so that's the end of the Prologue. Wonder what my mind could possibly have in store for Tesni…and who could the hot elf be? Maybe the answer is in the next chapter.

Review please.
