Long ago, there had been a girl barely out of her teens and her slightly older brother. They both lived in the Soviet Union, mainly Russia. Their father worked in a mine nearby while their grandmother took care of them. It seemed they were living happily, but that was not true.

The brother wanted to protect his sister, but she didn't like it. One day he pushed too far and she wished that he would be taken away by the goblins, which came from a fairytale that her grandmother used to tell her. He was taken, and it was then the girl realized her mistake. She wanted to have her brother back, but didn't know how. She tried to remember more from the tale and wished to see the Goblin King.

He came to her and she wished to have her brother back. He refused, however, saying that she would only wish him away again. The girl pleaded and pleaded, forcing the Goblin King to give her a chance. He took her to the Underground and said that if she could reach his castle in 13 hours, she would have her brother back. If not, then she would go home and her brother would stay there forever.

She accepted his challenge and went into the Labyrinth. Despite all the dangers she went through,, she made friends and realized her faults. And when she finally reached the castle, just before time was up, the Goblin King kept his part of the deal and released her brother. They went home and never thought of the Labyrinth again, even to the point of forgetting it. However, it was not out of their lives.

The Goblin King knew that he should keep his promise and never see her again, but he was so fascinated by the girl that he made a wish for higher powers to allow him to see her again. His wish was surprisingly granted, as he was the one who usually did the granting. But his wish didn't come out as he had hoped. He still had his powers, but could not use them. And when he saw the girl again, now the same physical age, he was unable to talk to her. She didn't recognize him, either.

But, of course, Fate decided to intervene.

I've never seen Labyrinth, exactly, but I have read Roommates (by AsheRhyder) and Girls Next Door (by Pika-la-Cynique) on DeviantArt. So, if I made any mistakes, blame me. This is just the prologue, at least until I see the movie. And I wonder if you can guess who is who...

But please, read & review!
