How about a new chapter, would that please you guys? I hope so. This one's pretty short and is pretty much filler, took me 2 hours to write though. I obviously don't own any movie rights or book rights, let alone Harry Potter or Labyrinth.

Regulus grabbed her hand yet again and nodded.

"Your wish is my command," Hermione said and squeezed his hand.

Hermione took a glance towards the clock, which showed that they had lost five minutes talking with Jareth. "All right, let's get moving," Regulus said with a sigh, interrupting her train of thought. Sharing a glance the pair slowly made their way down the Cliffside. The last thing they needed was an injury to slow them down.

On the last jump down, Hermione landed with a light thud, which would've led to a larger thud if Regulus hadn't caught her after stumbling a bit. For the second time that day. At the bottom fo the slight cliff, they were met with a stone courtyard.

Both of the Ex-Hogwarts students were hit with a wave of nostalgia. The courtyard strongly resembled the one leading to the Entrance Hall. Both were made of stone; from the floor, to the walls, to the statues. The only contrast to the stone was the overgrown vines slowly taking over the walls and floor.

"Now to find the entrance to this maze," Hermione started, which Regulus was quick to point out was obvious task at hand. Hermione, ever the mature one, poked her tongue out at him and walked off in the other direction.

"Hermione," Regulus called after her, "I was just joking… don't leave," he finished weakly. Fear crept into his eyes as they did when they first met and she was wearing his necklace.

The girl in question walked back over. "I was just checking the other side of the courtyard, what's the matter?" Concern shone in her eyes as his shifted from fear to sadness.

"I'm sick of being alone," He mumbled, "I don't think I could stand having to lose another person and be left alone again." He hung his head as he finished talking, a slight blush gracing his features. As soon as he finished Hermione threw her arms around him.

"I promise I won't leave you, and even If I do, it won't be until we're out of here and you have friends." She stepped back and entwined their hands and flashed a charming smile, which he returned, still slightly blushing.

He nodded and they looked around for a bit. While wandering Regulus thought about the girl whose hand was in his. Why did she make him blush? Girls never flustered him before, especially not muggleborns. While he was not prejudiced, every muggleborn he met was just amazed at the fact that she or he could do magic, while this girl (who his brother called the brightest witch of her age) used magic to save lost souls in the veil and bring back people who died with no cause. Like his brother. Like him.

After about ten minutes he sighed and shipped out his wand. He appeared to be thinking so Hermione didn't disturb him. "Expecto Patronum," he whispered and much to Hermione's shock and otter much like hers shot out of his wand.

The otter, again like hers, was very friendly. He jumped around the two a couple of times before Regulus asked it to find the entrance to the labyrinth, to which the otter replied by skipping over to a particularly vine covered patch of wall. The two sprinted over to the wall.

Up in the castle, Jareth was watching the pair with a wary eye. As he was twirling the Granger girl's wand between his fingers, he almost dropped it in shock when Regulus pulled out something very similar and produced a silvery, ghost-like otter with a select few words HE forgot the boy had his wand. And he couldn't restrict the almost –man from using it due to his own damn rules!

He now knew what Sarah meant 10 years ago when she said life wasn't fair. Oh well.

Yeah, I told you It was relatively short. Anyways if you know, when you review, can you tell me WTF a beta is? All my work is un-beta'd and it bothers me because I think it would be much better if it was. Please Review.
