A/N 1: I own nothing of the Labyrinth. It all goes to the wonderful Jim Henson & Co.

A/N 2: I need to have feedback that tells me whether or not to continue this or delete it and burn the pages on which it was written. Thank you.

A/N 3: This is highly off the mark of the movie or the book. It involves child abuse, neglect, thoughts of suicide, harsh language, and other such topics. Please, please, PLEASE don't flame me for this.

Sarah Williams was born on February 25, 1971. This was to an 18 year old Linda Williams, who hemorrhaged out before the doctors could do anything to help her. So Sarah's birth was the main cause for her father's pure loathing of her. Still, he took her in out of his sense of duty, ignoring her when possible. This caused her to bury herself in fantastical stories, a way to escape a harsh reality of having nobody to care for her and having to fend for herself. This went on for 10 years, when her father married a woman named Caryn who already had 3 children. That was when her life went downhill.
