I have writers block for my other stories.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Labyrinth. If I did, there would be a sequel and Sarah would not be that whiny and dramatic. I own Lilith.
The Wraith In The Labyrinth
Chapter 2: Accidently Meeting Jareth
Lilith is splayed out on her younger friend's tan couch. Her clothes are the usual. Black ankle boots, black jeans, a white button up with a grey vest over it, and her leather jacket thrown over the couch.
She sighs in annoyance at the fact that her friend is being overdramatic again. Though she would be irritated too if someone she was not genetically related to and did not love ordered her around. That doesn't mean she would take her irritation out on a half-sibling like her friend is doing to little Toby.
Lilith slides off the couch with a sigh of annoyance. She grabs her jacket and ties it around her waist. She can hear Sarah telling little Toby the story. She better not say the words or I will slap her and scold her. Possibly even use a spell of mine on her.
Lilith is just about to enter Toby's room when she hears Sarah threaten, "Oh Toby. Don't make me say it. Don't make me say the words."
Lilith's eyes narrow and she growls, "Sarah!"
Sarah ignores her. She raises Toby in the air and exclaims, "O'Goblin King, Goblin King. Take this child away from me!"
Lilith sighs in relief, she didn't say the words. Lilith then frowns at Sarah when she walks over to her.
The silver haired girl scolds her friend, "You're lucky you didn't say the correct words. What would you have done if Toby was actually taken by the Goblins?"
Sarah scoffs, "If only that could happen. I wish the Goblin's would take Toby away."
Toby is still crying in the background. Lilith points a finger at Sarah angrily and growls out, "Don't you dare finish that sentence Sarah Williams. You will regret it." Lilith walks to Toby to calm him down.
Sarah frowns, "I wish the goblins would take Toby away." Sarah closes the door behind her and Lilith can hear a muffled, "Right now."
Lilith curses at her friend in her head, but freezes when she can no longer hear Toby crying. Lilith slowly turns her head to look at Toby, only to see him gone. She ignores Sarah when she enters the room and asks why Toby isn't crying.
Lilith, finally fed up with her, quickly faces Sarah and snaps, "Toby isn't crying because you wished him away! You know that magic is real! I showed you! Then you go and ignore my warnings!"
Lilith stalks to the bed and plops down with her head in her hands. Her shoulders seem to sag out of exhaustion as she ignores what she knows are Goblins freaking Sarah out. Lilith chuckles mirthlessly in her head, Heh. She deserves that for wishing Toby away.
Lilith looks up when she hears the balcony doors slam open and the flapping of wings. She watches as a beautiful white barn owl transforms into an unnatural majestic man. He has wild blonde hair and startling mismatched eyes. One blue, the other gold. A fae's eyes. The fae wears a black cloak over black leather armor. Oh my. He's wearing tights.
Lilith almost turns red, her head is level with the man's, who she believes is the Goblin King, waist. Luckily she holds down the urge to blush. Lilith stands up, catching the King's attention, and walks over to stand next to Sarah.
The kings lips twitch slightly, She's the one that warned little Sarah to not say the words. She's smart, and powerful. A bonus. Lilith, child of the night, what has drawn my Labyrinth to you?
