Author's Note: I just HAD to write this down. I'm not promising it will continue. A few of you will know I'm on hiatus or whatever that's called (something with writer's block) for my other in-progress stories. Sorry about that. Time and my new novel take up the time I use to have for fanfiction. But atleast I can do a few oneshots for all ya. Here's one of them.

Summary: It was just a story. That's all it was. But Jane and her sisters, Alex and Sophie, began to realize that some stories are real and that some things are just meant to be hidden...

Sophie's POV

"Man, Sophie. I wish the goblins from Grandma's story would come and take you away right now!"

The world around me spun so fast, the colors of Jane's room blended together and I had to close my eyes. I felt everything settle around me and I opened my eyes. I was alone in a dirty and chicken infested. "Yuck!" I stood up and looked all around. Ok, I didn't like cleaning my room but this was disgusting! I noticed that where I sat there were dirty cushions and rags. But if one thing was cleaned, it was the throne. I hugged myself and was cold and alone for several long minutes.

Then I heard laughter and footsteps. I looked around and saw goblins! Goblins of all shapes, sizes, and colors. They were sitting around in the room like they'd been there for hours. I saw chickens too. The air shifted and I heard a faint humming. Didn't Grandma say...?

I turned around.

A blonde man with mismatched eyes and in dark armor stood before the throne, adjusting his gloves. He lifted his eyes to me.

"You're him, aren't you?" I asked him rather tmidly. "You're the Goblin King."

He twitched slightly. "Yes," he answered me coolly.

I looked around at the goblins. They were drinking, throwing things, playing with chickens, and being so obnoxious. I played with my hands. I looked back up at the king and he stared out into space. He looked back at me and I looked down, too scared too look in the mismatched eyes.

"Alex and Jane will beat the labyrinth," I suddenly said.

There was a shatter of glass and the whole room went quiet. The broken glass pieces I heard shatter landed directly infront of my feet. I stole a glance up. The Goblin King stood up, glaring at me with such hatred and I saw his fists trembling.

"My sisters don't give up easily and we always go through for one another." I wasn't afraid to say the words but I was growing a bit frightened the longer he glared at me. "Please don't hurt them," I begged. "They're my sisters."

He relaxed and sat back down. Once again, the noise filled up the room. I looked around at the goblins then back at their king. I dug into the pockets of my dress and pulled out a clear plastic bag wth chocolate chip cookies. I tried to find a clean suitable place to sit and eat but there wasn't any.

"Sit here."

I looked up to see a nice little golden chair next to the throne. I walked up the small steps and sat down. "Thank you." I opened the bag and I looked up at the Goblin King. "Want one?" I offered. He was taken back but shook his head and looked back at the clock. I glanced at the clock. "Thirteen hours, right? That's how long Alex and Jane have to solve it."

"Yes." He glanced at me from the corner of his eye. "You know a little more than you let on, don't you?"

"As being the youngest sister, I tend to observe more. It helps a lot because then I know how not to get in trouble and what to say and how to blame them."

I saw him smirk a little. "A little trouble-maker, are you?"

I shook my head. "No, sir."

"Tell me a little more about your sisters."

It was my turn to be the surprised one. "Um, well. Alex is the oldest, then Jane, then me. Alex is in college; she wants to be a psychologist. She has an attitude and a bit wild, but she's always there. Jane is closer to her. She wants to be a fashion designer."

"I know."

I looked up in surprise. "How do you know?" He didn't say anything so I continued. "She's really good at it too." I paused, wondering what else I could tell. "Alex loves frogs, so her favorite color is green. I don't know why but she thinks frogs are cute. She also likes to swim. She's always in the pool. And Jane likes the ocean. Her favorite animal is the turtle. She says she's slow like one but they're so cute and funny. Her favorite color is purple and she's always drawing." I looked down and pulled out a cookie. What happened next was like World War III. I think the chocolate scent was strong because it was silent for two seconds in the room. Then all the goblins collaborated around me, reached for the cookies. I stood on my chair and held it out of reach. Some jumped up and reached for the cookies.

"Silence!" The Goblin King stood up. The goblins looked at him. "Back to your duties, the lot of you!" He held his riding crop in his hand. The goblins hurried off but a few sent envious glares to me.

I thought only Alex, Jane, and I fought tooth and nail for them. Who knew goblins were crazy for chocolate cookies too? I sat back down and there was a clatter. I looked down to see my pink cell phone. I reached down for it and flipped it open. There was reception in the castle. I hesitantly looked at the Goblin King who was peering into a crystal ball. "Can I talk to my sisters? I won't help them cheat." I promised.

He regarded my cell phone. With a flick of his hand, the crystal ball vanished. He leaned over and plucked it from my hands. I frowned but was a bit frightened to say anything. He pushed a few buttons and held it to his ear. I cocked my head, surprised he knew how to use it. But who was he calling? I heard the familair ringback tone of PussyCat Dolls "Buttons". Jane! I grew anxious. Maybe he would let me talk to her!

I could barely hear Jane's voice on the other end. "Hello? Sophie?" I could tell she was excited.

The Goblin King smirked. "My, if you're this happy that your sister called how happy were you in the ballroom?"

Ballroom?

A short pause. "Where's Sophie?"

"Tsk, tsk." He teased. "No hello?"

"Put her on the phone." Jane demanded.

The king faked a sigh. "If I do, what will you do for me?"

"A damn good beating, that's what!" I grinned. That was Alex!

Jane spoke next with a pleading, "Can we talk to her, please?"

The king's next words gave me a shiver. "Suppose it'll be the last time you talk to her." He glanced at me and I could tell he was serious.

"What are you talking about?" Jane's voice had a panic edge.

"You're suppose to solve the labyrinth."

That could only mean one thing. They were cheating. I resisted to sigh.

"We are!" There was Alex again.

"Tsk, tsk. Such rude manners." A sly sinister grin played on his mouth. "Perhaps a little trip to the oubliette will straighten you out."

I couldn't hear what Jane and Alex were arguing now but I shook my head desperately. "Please!" I begged. "Please don't send them there!"

The Goblin King looked at me and I saw his expression softened. "Tick-tock." Was all he said on the phone. He flipped it close and leaned forward. "And why shouldn't I send your sisters there?"

"Jane can't be in the dark! And Alex will go crazy!" I told him. "Please. I know you put people there so they can be forgotten. I don't want to forget them. Please!"

He narrowed his eyes. "So cruel," he muttered and produced a crystal ball. I stared at the crystal and watched my sisters fall into a darkness.

Note: I decided to show how things from Sophie's POV was doing. If you have any ideas for Sophie's POV, that would be great. As well as suggestions for Jane and Alex's obstacles. Oh! And Exceptional, I would be happy to see that drawing. :) I can't wait!
