A/N: Finally, after so long of putting of the sequel to "Nothing Compares
to You" (ya know, I gotta stay with my phantom side) I'm going to start it
now. I finally have a plot, I finally have an idea of what I'm going to
do, and I finally have a name for it. Without further ado: Beautiful Day.
The wedding was wonderful. It was held on one sunny afternoon behind Jareth's castle, and all of the Labyrinth creatures were invited. Jareth had his bumbling bunch of Goblins (he didn't want them to show up, but they insisted on observing), and Sarah gathered up Ludo, Hoggle, Didymus and Ambrosious. Ludo also took some rocks with him, but as Sarah had told him - they were inatimate objects. They couldn't WATCH a wedding. (But try convincing Ludo, it's hopeless).
Jareth had been a little uncomfortable to get married; he really didn't like the idea of the whole ceremony. Sarah had suggested it, and said it would make her happy because it was a reminder of the place she had come from, so he reluctantly agreed. Throughout the entire thing, he was burning with embarrassment, and Sarah almost felt sorry for him, for putting him through this, but he relaxed after a while, when it was time for the "I do's" he said it pretty perfectly.
The only one who objected to the two of them getting married was Hoggle, who, after making a scene, was pitched into a hedge by an infuriated Jareth, who was already irritated and stressed out. Once all was situated again, and the priest-Goblin said, "You may kiss the bride", they both finally forgot about everyone else there and were left in their own little world for the few precious seconds they had.
So they were married, and Sarah became queen of the Labyrinth, and they both lived happily ever after. Though happily ever after's don't last forever, the newly-weds were trying their very hardest to stretch their's out extra long. And three years later, they were as fresh as that happy day behind the castle...
There were four Goblins in the kitchen, slaving away furiously to prepare a dinner for Sarah and Jareth. After all; it had to be special. It was Sarah's birthday and everybody had to celebrate. Everybody loved to celebrate for the kind queen, and the parties were fantastic. Everyone but the Goblins.
One Goblin snorted while dropping a dish into soapy water, scrubbing away. "I remember those old days when we used to have fun in this castle," he said abruptly to his three companions.
"Fun, yes; there's hardly any more of that nowadays with the lady in the castle and all," another agreed, plopping vegetables into a steaming pot of water.
"Jareth is different now, haven't you all realized it?" A third piped up, tripping over a foot stool, "He never used to make us cook or clean, or make beds or do any of that servant stuff servants are really supposed to do. He was always buddy-buddy with us, but now he's leaning more towards keeping things nice for SARAH." As the Goblin said her name, he spat in the sink.
The one who was washing dishes sighed. "If you think about it, we were much better off when Jareth was a sloppy, uncaring bachelor."
The others agreed.
"And he's gotten SOFT," he continued. "He doesn't like tormenting the pathetic creatures of the Labyrinth any more than SARAH does."
"QUEEN Sarah," the fourth Goblin said, quietly correcting him.
"Yeah right," the one who had tripped grunted, "As if YOU enjoy cooking for HER."
"Queen Sarah is a very kind lady, and we are lucky to have her as OUR queen," the fourth Goblin replied.
All the others scowled at him.
"Don't TELL us you LIKE this kind of life?" The vegetable chopper asked.
The fourth Goblin look uneasy and said, "No, I never said I did... but-"
"But WHAT?" The chopper interrupted. "If Sarah were gone, we'd have LUXURY like we did in the old times.. remember the days when we used to just hang out? It's not that great anymore."
The dish washer dropped a plate suddenly on the tile floor, shattering it into a million pieces and making the other three Goblin's heads snap up.
"What was that for?" The tripper asked piercingly.
"What if.." the washer said slowly, turning around to face his buddies, "we got RID of Sarah? What if... she mysteriously fell ill?" He gave a devilish grin and motioned for his buddies to come closer, which they enthusiastically did. "There's poison under the sink for... such certain purposes..."
"Really?" The fourth Goblin wondered excitedly.
The first Goblin rolled his eyes. "Well, not REALLY.. it just SOUNDS better that way... quit ruining my evil moment."
"Oh, oops - sorry. Continue," the fourth Goblin muttered.
"One drop of that poison, and it will be a long, slow death for the queen," the first Goblin whispered.
"How are we going to do it?" The tripper whispered back. The first Goblin motioned for his buddies to come closer, and they were so near to him, that their noses were almost touching, and each could smell the other's reeking breath.
"Her drink... we will poison her dinner drink."
A/N: So that was chapter one - kinda short, and a little hurried, but I'm being bugged to get off the computer. Chapter two will be up soon! ENJOY! :)
