A/N: Well, here it is, the sequal to Friends. Family, Love. Thank you to everyone who reviewed that story, and encouraged this sequal. This is also my first attempt at a crossover, and therefore I have some notes. First and foremost, this is a crossover between Labyrinth and Harry Potter. Second, I know that timeline is going to be a little skewed, but that is because the actual timeline in the books is so convouluted. So I jsut decided that this starts during Harry's fifth year, and will be quite AU from here on, Potterverse wise. This also takes place three years after FFL. To those who were hoping for Sarah and Jareth's wedding, I apologize. My muse hit me with this idea late last night, and I just ran with it. Also, this will NOT be HBP or DH compatible. While the books are incredibly written, and I greatly enjoyed the stories, I am going in a different direction for this story. And finally, as alwayas, I do not own Labyrinth or the Harry Potter series. I only own Rin, and all her mischief. Now then, on with the story!


Labyrinth 'Rin' Jones sat on the edge of a great stone window, looking out over a beautiful garden. Sighing with boredom, she produced a crystal and tossed it from hand to hand, lost in thought. She smiled suddenly, her mismatched eyes twinkling with remembrance, as she recalled the painting her best friend Sarah had made just one week before both their lives changed forever. Even now, three years later, Rin had trouble believing that she really was Fae, much less a princess in the High Court. However, it was days like today that she wished her life was once more the normal life of a mortal Aboveground.

"Rin, are you going to answer these invitations?" Rin turned to look at the pinched face of Estra, her court instructor. Rin was polite to a fault to the Elven woman, but she seemed to only be interested in getting the princess married off. Today, Rin had received no less than fifteen letters from unmarried royalty of the Underground, requesting her company at dinners, or balls. Rin had absolutely no desire to waste her time with sniveling lords and lesser kings who were only interested in her titles.

"Send polite dismissals to all of them." she replied, looking out the window once again, her mind drifting to the view of her namesake from her brother's castle. From behind her, Estra let out a breath in a huff, her temper frayed.

"You cannot keep ignoring the populace princess. There are ladies of the court who would give anything to have all these gentlemen paying them court." she snapped. Rin stood suddenly, flinging the crystal in her hand at the wall, where it shattered into a thousand pieces.

"Then let them have the men! I have no desire to see them when they are only interested in my title!" she shouted. Estra sneered at the princess, obviously pleased that she was throwing a fit.

"You will do as your station demands." the Elven woman said coldly. Rin let out a roar of frustration and produced another crystal, throwing it to her feet. She vanished in a haze of smoke just as High Queen Madrea stepped through the doors.

"Where is my daughter?" she asked. Estra curtsied low before the queen.

"She only just stormed off, Majesty. She threw a fit when I asked her if she would reply to her correspondence." she said sweetly. Madrea regarded the elf before her. Estra had come highly recommended as an instructor in court etiquette, but Rin always seemed to be upset after spending time with the woman.

"My daughter is not in the habit of throwing fits. She is far from the spoiled nobility that some in our court have raised." she said, moving to the window. Estra kept her head bowed so the queen would not see her sneer.

"I'm afraid that living Aboveground has made her quite unreasonable. The mortals have rubbed off on her in a rather unpleasant way." she said. Madrea glared at the woman, and caught sight of the shattered crystal by the wall. If their was one thing Madrea knew about her daughter, it was that she only threw things when she was livid at being insulted.

"Rin is a very grounded woman. She does not enjoy the petty desires of most young Fae today. She will return when she has calmed down. When she does, I suggest you are not here." Madrea said, raising herself to her full regal height. Estra bowed even lower as the queen walked out of the room.

******************************************************************************************

Luna Lovegood was quietly wandering near the edge of the lake, humming to herself. She had awoken to the sound of whispering in the shadows, and had slipped out of her dormitory, then out of the castle, following the whispers. As she approached the edge of the forest, she saw a woman kneeling by the water, a dark emerald gown flowing around her in a medieval fashion. Her dark red hair spilled over her shoulders in waves, and she clutched her arms around her waist. Luna could feel the frustration, and sadness rolling off her in waves. As she approached, the woman, she noticed that her skin seemed to glow in the moonlight.

"Don't be sad." she whispered, and the woman's head shot up. Her features were soft yet angular, obviously of a noble bloodline. But it was her eyes that drew Luna in. One was the blue of the lake in the sun, but the other was the exact shade of Harry Potter's. Tear tracks ran along her lovely face, but did not detract from her beauty. Luna kneeled before her and laid a gentle hand on her shoulder.

"I'm not exactly sad. Just, weary." the woman said, and Luna could detect the slight Irish lilt in her voice.

"You're very pretty. Like a fairytale princess." Luna said, a dreamy look in her eyes. The woman laughed, a gentle musical sound that washed over the water and the trees, and Luna blinked in surprise as she watched the trees appear to bow to the woman, almost honored the woman had laughed in their presence.

"You are quite perceptive, child. I am, in fact, a Fae princess. My name is Rin." she said, holding out her hand. Luna kneeled down properly next to Rin and shook her hand.

"Luna Lovegood, fourth year Ravenclaw." she replied. Rin's brow creased in confusion, and Luna gestured back towards the castle. Rin's mismatched eyes widened in delight, and she seemed to drink in the magic of the castle. After a moment, she turned to look at Luna once more, and Luna was struck once more by that intense gaze.

"I had feared there was no magic in this world. I am pleased to know that I was mistaken. I have a question, Luna." she said, and Luna sat up straight.

"I would be happy to answer it, Princess, if I can." she replied, and Rin laughed again.

"You don't have to call me that. Just call me Rin. Luna, I can sense that something malicious is happening in this place. Will you tell me what you can?" she asked. Luna looked back at the castle, her eyes glazing over slightly.

"Hogwarts has been around for many centuries, and the Ministry of Magic almost never interferes with the school. But ever since the Dark Lord was revived at the end of term last year, the Ministry has been doing everything possible to deny the truth. The keep making rules that punish the students who know the truth, and they won't teach us the spells we need to defend ourselves against the Dark Lord's army. Poor Harry Potter gets it the worst. The Toad Umbridge doesn't like that he told the truth, and she punishes him at every turn." Luna said. As she spoke, Rin produced a crystal and viewed the things Luna told her. Her heart went out to the students at the school, and she felt a bit of pride at the actions of the young Harry Potter. Focusing, she saw the boy wizard slipping through the halls under some kind of cloak, a thick piece of parchment in his hand. Smiling slyly, Rin pushed her magic at the parchment, watching with satisfaction as Harry's eyes widened at the message that appeared on his map.

It's a lovely evening for sneaking out and visiting at the lake with a friend. Won't you join us?

Luna giggled as she watched over Rin's shoulder. The redheaded Fae smiled and tossed the crystal into the air. When it came back down, it burst in a shower of magic dust, and a pair of earrings lay in her hand. They were matching crystals hanging from silver thread. Rin held them out to Luna, who smiled and immediately put them on. The crystals shimmered in the moonlight, and Luna's eyes widened as she gazed around them. Rin smiled. The crystals had given Luna the ability to see her brother's subjects.

"The creatures you see are the mischief goblins. They are my brother's subjects, and only those who have been to the Underground, or who are blessed by the Fae may see them. They will not harm you, in fact, they will protect you. And I can guarantee that this Umbridge person will have quite a bit of trouble for the rest of the year." Rin said. Luna smiled, and Rin blinked, a bemused expression on her face as she took notice of the girl's slightly pointed teeth. At that moment, another figure appeared by the lake. Rin took in the appearance of the fifteen year old boy before her. Unruly black hair, deep emerald eyes that reminded her of her left eye, and round glasses, as well as black robes, which must have been the school uniform. Rin noted that he held a wand on one hand, and the thick parchment in the other. She smiled at him.

"You must be Harry Potter. It's lovely to meet you." she said. Harry was looking between her and Luna, who was still enraptured by the sight of the goblins.

"Princess Labyrinth Athena Jones?" he asked hesitantly. Rin blinked in surprise, and then noticed that the parchment he held was a map, with little moving dots that were labeled with names.

"Call me Rin, please. Will you join us? Luna was telling me about your world, and we were plotting against a toad called Umbridge." she said. At her words, Harry relaxed and joined them by the lakeside. Rin noticed that he was rubbing at a bandage on his right hand. Concerned, she reached out and took his hand, unwinding the bandage.

"What are you doing?" he asked. Rin glanced up at him.

"Helping you of course. What happened?" she asked. Harry bowed his head, and his left hand curled into a fist.

"Professor Umbridge gave me detention for refusing to take back the truth. She made me write the line 'I must not tell lies' with an enchanted quill that carved the words into my hand." he replied. Rin gasped as she looked at the raw words carved into the back of his hand. Red hot anger flowed through her as she took in the damage. In a second, she produced a crystal and pressed it to the back of Harry's hand. A soft glow filled the crystal as the wound was healed. Harry was staring in shock. Rin smirked a little.

"Gotta love Fae magic." she said casually. Harry gazed up at her in amazement. Luna looked over at him, grinning widely.

"Rin is a Fae princess, the sister of the Goblin King." she said, bowing to the princess. Harry looked back at Rin.

"The goblins have a king? I thought they were bankers." he said. Rin laughed again, the musical sound lifting Harry's spirit.

"The goblins that run your bank are just a part of my brother's kingdom. For the most part, they are autonomous, as my dear brother has his hands full dealing with the wished away children. The Aboveground goblins are quite a bit more intelligent than the goblins that reside in Jareth's kingdom." she explained. Harry thought about that.

"In a strange way, it makes sense. Thought now I feel worse for them. The Ministry doesn't afford them the same rights as the more human races. My friend Hermione gets livid over it." Harry said. Suddenly, Rin sensed the shift in magic around them and sighed.

"Did Madre and Da send you after me, Brother?" she said aloud. A barn owl swooped down and transformed into the familiar shape of her brother. Jareth had their father's wild pale blond hair and facial features. His eyes were mismatched, similar to Rin's, one blue and one brown. This evening, he wore a black poet's shirt, black leggings with knee high boots, and gloves. The vest he wore was covered in silver embroidery that glowed in the moonlight, and his shirt was opened enough to reveal the pendant that was his symbol of office. Luna was staring at him in her normal dreamy fashion, while Harry sat with his mouth open, amazement in his eyes.

"Dear Sister, they have done no such thing. Although I still do not understand why you don't simply bog that horrid instructor of yours. She has no sense of propriety." Jareth said, sounding bored. He produced several crystals and began to juggle them. Luna giggled as she watched the goblins swarm from the shadows to greet their king. Rin pressed one hand over Harry's eyes for a moment, and when she lifted her fingers, he could see the small creatures surrounding their king, whose expression had warmed at the appearance of his subjects. Rin leaned over to whisper in Harry's ear.

"I forgot that he can always hear his name. That's what brought him here." she said softly. Jareth gracefully sat down next to Rin, pulling a goblin into his lap.

"So what made you come to a mortal magic school to escape that horrid woman?" he asked. Rin sighed and gazed out over the lake.

"I'm not sure. When I left, I just wanted to go somewhere where I wasn't expected to act like a vapid royal brat. I like feeling useful." she replied. Jareth nodded, absently scratching the goblin's head. The goblin in his lap immediately took on an expression of utter contentment. Ever since their king had married the Lady, he had softened considerably, becoming more like the kind king that had first taken up the Goblin throne.

"Then you must be needed here. This world is on the edge of war, but the High Court is forbidden from interfering." he explained. Rin's shoulders slumped, and Jareth chuckled.

"If the High Court can't help us fight Voldermort, then how can Rin help?" Harry asked. Luna smiled as she stood up.

"Rin isn't the High Court. Come on Harry. Professor Dumbledore is on his way." she said, looking down at the map. Harry leapt up and grabbed his shimmering cloak.

"I'll walk you back to your dorm so you don't get caught Luna." Harry offered. Rin produced another crystal and tossed it to the boy. As he reached up to catch it, it transformed into a gold ring with jade inlay. The band fit perfectly around his thumb.

"For your protection. If you need me, just call for me." Rin said. Harry smiled at her and wrapped his cloak around himself and Luna, and they vanished from sight. Jareth turned into his owl form and flew up into the trees to watch the coming interaction. Rin stood regally as an older wizard approached. His long silvery beard blended well with his grey robes. He had a friendly enough face, with a crooked nose. Upon his nose sat a pair of half moon glasses. As he approached her, he took in her appearance, then stopped and bowed before her.

"I am honored by your presence at my school, your Majesty. Might I enquire as to why a Fae Princess has graced the grounds?" he asked politely. Rin smiled and curtsied to him.

"I merely came here for some peace from my court instructor. The woman is insufferable, and treats me like a vapid imbecile. If I have disturbed your school, I apologize." she said. The kindly old wizard held up a hand.

"You are not disturbing anything. However, I would like to invite you into the castle, if only to avoid our High Inquisitor." the tone in which he said the title said he truly disliked the person and position. Rin nodded and allowed the wizard to lead her into the castle, and up to his office, past a statue of a gargoyle. In his office, Rin gazed over the many odds and ends laying on the shelves, as well as the sleeping portraits. Finally, her gaze was drawn to Fawkes, who bowed his head once he met her eyes. To Dumbledore's bemused surprise, Rin dipped into a full court curtsey before the bird, murmuring something he did not catch, but which the bird seemed to approve of. The pair sat before the fireplace, and Dumbledore waved his wand, conjuring a tea tray and serving the princess.

"I certainly appreciate your hospitality, Headmaster. Your school is a delight to see." she said. Dumbledore smiled at the young princess, noting the way in which she relaxed, slumping comfortably into the chair, which spoke of a normal Muggle upbringing.

"I was under the impression that the High Court forbid interaction between our worlds." he said. Rin smiled.

"My brother and I are the exceptions. I was raised here in the Aboveground, and my brother's duties require him to come here often, to take away the unwanted children." she replied. Dumbledore nodded his understanding, and Rin set her teacup down.

"Professor, if I may be so forward, I would like to offer you my assistance in removing a certain pest from your school." she said. Dumbledore sighed and set his own teacup down.

"While I appreciate the offer deeply, your majesty, I must decline. I would not want the tentative peace between our worlds to be broken by our actions. I am sure we will be able to deal with Dolores Umbridge, and the Ministry's interference with my school." he assured her. Rin sighed and rand a hand through her hair.

"Do you know what that woman did to one of your students, simply because he would not retract the truth? She used a cursed quill to carve his words into his hand." she said, producing a crystal to show Dumbledore the angry wounds she had healed from Harry's hand. She watched as his hands tightened into fists, then he slumped lower into his own chair, looking his age for the first time in many years.

"I fear I have failed Harry in so many ways over the years." he whispered. Rin sat up in her chair.

"Then perhaps now is the time to make things right. I can sense something in the boy, but it has been suppressed, buried by cruelties he has endured. I would like to help him, and your other students. Will you accept the help of this Fae?" she asked. Dumbledore looked over at her, his eyes twinkling with an idea.

"How are you at teaching? My Divination teacher is about to be sacked, and I will have need of a replacement, or else the Ministry will try to plant their own in my school." he said. Rin smiled, the grin that matched her brother's so well.

"It will take a bit of work, but I am willing to do it." she replied.

"Excellent. I would like to assign a guard to you, for your protection, of course." he said. Rin's mismatched eyes glittered with amusement.

"To protect me? Or to protect the toad from me?" she asked demurely. Dumbledore laughed softly.

"Perhaps a bit of both. Do you like dogs?"

******************************************************************************************

Rin and Dumbledore appeared in the house at Grimmauld Place an hour later by way of Rin's own magic. As soon as they appeared in the front hall, a woman's voice began screaming at them.

"TRAITORS! FILTHY MONGRELS! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!" Rin's head snapped around to face the huge portrait of the Black matriarch. A wizard with bright red hair appeared in the door from the kitchen.

"Welcome back Albus. Who is this?" he asked. Rin had put a simple glamour on herself to hide her Fae bloodline, but her clothes were the same.

"Let's make our introductions in the kitchen. Just ignore the painting, my dear. Mrs. Black is not very pleased with our little group." Dumbledore explained. Rin glanced at the portrait for a second, before following the two wizards into the kitchen. Rin's eyes took in the people crowded around the table. Dumbledore turned and bowed slightly.

"All the people in this room are trustworthy. You can tell them anything, and they will guard your secrets." he said. Rin nodded, and dropped her glamour.

"My name is Labyrinth Athena Jones. I am the daughter of High King Arneth, and High Queen Madrea of the Fae. I am here to help you in your fight against Voldermort." she said. The people at the table were staring at her in amazement, all but one. In the far corner sat a man with long black hair and a goatee. He appeared impressed by her appearance, but wary.

"So the High Court has agreed to align with us? Why not go to the Ministry?" he asked. A young witch with violet hair smacked him in the arm.

"Sirius!" she scolded. Sirius rolled his eyes and tugged on her hair.

"It's a valid question, cousin." he shot back, and Rin smirked a little.

"He is right. The simple answer is no, the High Court is not taking a side in your war. It is not allowed." she replied, moving to take the only empty seat, next to Sirius.

"Then why are you here?" this from the wizard with one strange eye that roamed all over the room, never settling down. Rin gave him her best arrogant smirk.

"I am not the High Court. I offered my help, and only my help. Although my brother will likely send his subjects to join with you as well." she replied easily. The violet haired girl leaned forward, and her hair turned a bright pink.

"Sneaky! I think I'm gonna like you. I'm Tonks." she said, offering her hand. Rin took it with a genuine smile.

"Call me Rin." she replied.

"So how are you going to help us?" the red haired wizard she had first seen asked.

"Rin will be taking the place of one of my teachers. Umbridge is about to sack Sybill, and Rin has graciously agreed to be the new Divination Professor. She assures me she knows enough to fake her way through." Dumbledore said.

"My main duty at the school will be to help Harry, to protect him from that horrid woman. Professor Dumbledore says that I will need a guard, and has recommended a member of your Order." Rin said. The men and women at the table looked at each other in curiosity.

"We are all well known to the Ministry, Albus. We can hardly protect her at the school with Umbridge there." a man with several scars on his face said. Rin caught the scent of the wolf on him.

"They know our faces, true. But they are not aware of Padfoot's appearance." Dumbledore replied. Sirius sat up straight at the Headmaster's words.

"That woman would recognize an animagus the second I walked onto the grounds." he protested weakly, yet a spark of hope lit his dark eyes. Rin smiled slyly at him.

"Not once I work my own magic. The woman is a fool, and we shall slip right under her nose." Rin replied. Sirius was quiet for a moment, head bowed in thought. When he lifted his head, a broad grin was on his face.

"When do we leave?" he asked.

"You'll arrive first thing in the morning. Remember, Princess, you must keep up the appearance of mortal witch, so no using a crystal to appear in the middle of the Great Hall." Dumbledore said. Rin rolled her eyes and nodded her head.

"We'll see you in the morning, Professor." she said. Dumbledore nodded, before he Apparated away. Introductions were made, and then Sirius and Rin left the room to prepare for their trip. Sirius led her to an empty room, and she sat down on the bed, producing a crystal and tossing it lightly between her hands.

"How do you plan on getting past the old toad? You are quite memorable, Princess." he said. She laughed, a musical sound that trickled down his spine like a warm caress, and he had to repress a shiver.

"A simple glamour will hide my Fae features. Another simple dampening spell will make you appear to be anything but a large dog." she replied. Sirius nodded.

"I guess I can trust that. At least this way I will be doing something for the Order." he said quietly. Rin took the moment to look over the well dressed man before her. He was quite handsome by mortal standards, and compared to some of the nobility that had been recently vying for her attentions, she found she preferred his company.

"You should get some sleep. We will travel to the village near the castle in the morning, and Dumbledore has arranged a carriage from there." Rin said, standing up, crystal in hand.

"Where are you going?" he asked, surprised at the ripple of displeasure that flowed through him at the thought of her not being there. She smiled warmly at him.

"I'm afraid I left home in a bit of a snit this evening. I need to inform my parents that I am safe before they send the army out looking for me. Or worse, my brother." she said, an affectionate smile on her face as she thought of her brother.

"And who is your brother? You implied that he might also ally with us." he asked. Rin smiled widely, and Sirius thought how much lovelier she was when she smiled like that.

"My brother is the Goblin King, who comes to your world to take away the unwanted children. Part of his kingdom lives here." she replied, tossing the crystal at her feet and vanishing in a haze of sweet smelling smoke.


A/N: So what do you think? With any luck, I will have another chapter up this week, unless life gets in the way. Please let me know what you think. Also, I would like to take a moment to thank those on this sight that have written L/HP crossovers before me. They have inspired me to write this myself.
