Here's a new story I've been working on for some time. It comes in pieces. I'm editing it to make sure the time flows correctly. I've had this for a while so I think it is safe to finally upload. Enjoy! Please leave reviews if you wish.


"Do you know what you are doing?"

Jareth watched as his cousin paced back and forth in his room. He thought his way through this plan. He knew the ways in and out. Nothing could go wrong. Nothing. Tra-la-la

"I am fully aware."

"Jareth, no one does these things anymore. It dangerous! Is she really worth it? She is just a mortal after all."

The "she" he was referring to was anything but a simple mortal. She was something more, something wonderful to Jareth. She was had won the Labyrinth, beat the fearful Goblin King.

"She is to me."

"Would she do the same for you? I know you love her. Do you really want to be her Romeo? Is she really your Juliet?"

"Hopefully, it won't come to such a tragic ending like those two star-crossed lovers," Jareth chuckled and looked seriously at his cousin, "I just want you to perform the task. If you don't you very well know I'll do it myself."

His cousin laughed. Oh he knew that Jareth would do just that if he were to refuse. "You do realize that you will not have any magic that you will appear in every way as a mortal?"

Jareth knew the circumstances. He knew that cost would be if he failed this challenge.

"This isn't some game, Jareth. You can't use your word plays, riddles, or logic."

"Not a game? I beg to differ. It is a game. Are you going to do this or not?"

"You already know I am going to. Now lay down!"

Jareth lay down on his bed and threw a single crystal in the air. Jareth closed his eyes as he listened to his cousin starting to say the magic words. Jareth opened his eyes slightly he saw the crystal was absorbing his magic. He couldn't understand the words his cousin was chanting anymore. Jareth started to feel weak.

He felt his hairs on the back stand on end as his long blonde hair started to shorten. His body was slowly turning into a more mortal form.

He closed his eyes again and sighed. He heard his cousin say something but didn't understand what he had said because Jareth could feel that he was fading out of his world and into the safe house they made for him in the Aboveground.

He was on his way to Sarah Williams.
