Lady: Hey everyone! See, I am updating on time. Don't touch that cake!

Gk: I wasn't going to touch the cake, although I must say precious, If you offered me a slice then I could stop the goblins from trying to jump up high enough to reach it.

Lady: Not going to happen Glitter King. Anyways, off topic but there is a carrot cake on the kitchen bar the goblins have been trying to reach since I got it out of the oven, you should have seen the looks on their faces when I offered them the beaters and other implements used to make the icing. Hilarious. Anyways Your royal glitteriness, I'm not afraid of the goblins getting the cake, its you I should be worried about.

Gk: How touching, you find it necessary to worry for me.

Lady: -Facepalm-

-While Lady of the Lily is facepalm-ing jareth cuts off a slice of the cake. She looks up to see him eating said cake-

lady: Oi! Stop eating the cake! Your making the Goblins Jealous and the cake feeds 10, if you hadn't noticed, there are more than 10 goblins so some are going to miss out. I'm not going to be cleaning up that mess.

Gk: What can I say, getting passed you defences is a piece of cake.

Sarah: STOP STEALING MY LINES! -humpf-

Lady: How about this slice! -magically gets icing pie and smacks it on his face-

Gk: You're going to pay for that.

Lady: -whilst running from an angry gk- I don't own the Labyrinth or anything related to the Labyrinth, if I did there would be changes to the story. I only own characters you do not recognize from the story.

Goblin: Enjoy!

When we arrived at my room I took the crystal out of my dress pocket and placed it on my night table where I noticed there was now a beautiful multicolored stand for it. Daria stood over near the dressing table with a simple emerald green dress with a round peasant like collar and a ribbon around the waist. I took it off Daria and walked behind the changing screen. My predictions were right, a comfortable dress.

"So what's the go with all of this? I don't know what to do when someone else is running the Labyrinth."

"Nicole just sit in room, read a book, play with make-up, whatever you like. Kingy makes it so its day time till the runner gives up. I think you can even watch what is happening through that crystal." Daria said.

"Daria can you show me how to watch it through the crystal, and possibly make it bigger?"

"Sure, just say show me what is happening. Then press the crystal in your hands and think of the size you want it to be."

"Thanks Daria, hey could you grab me a bowl of apples and a knife?"

Daria ran out of the room and I walked over to the crystal, no harm in trying right?

"Show me what is happening." I brought the crystal to my eye to see Jareth and a younger man of possibly 20 or so. He was wearing a leather jacket with light blue faded jeans and what appears to be a plain white t-shirt underneath.

"I don't know what you're talking about man, it's not that far." The young man said with an attempt to keep up his cool façade.

"Its further than you think Johnny. All you have to do is take this crystal and all your dreams come true, just forget about the baby."

"Oh no man, I can't do that my girlfriend would kill me." Johnny replied pulling a cigarette from his pocket and into his mouth.

"Very well then, you have 13 hours in which to complete my Labyrinth or your baby becomes one of us forever."

I put the crystal into the palm of my hand and squashed it with the other thinking about the size I wanted it to be. In seconds it had morphed into a flat clear screen the size of a regular book cover, Jareth had just faded away but the clock remained. Johnny began to run down the hill, ditching his cigarette. I put down the screen as I heard the door fling open.

"Daria has your apples Nicole-y."

"Thank you. I'll call you if I need you. Oh, and Daria? When I have finished all my training and stuff to be a member of court, I promise you we can play dress ups and make-up."

The young gobliness ran out the room with a wide smile. I looked back to the screen to see the Labyrinth's new contender had reached a set of doors and was being attacked by fairies. He was beating on the door to get in, but the door wasn't going to let him in without a fight, or at least the right words.

"Let me get into the Labyrinth." He yelled and the door flung open. Just as quickly as it opened it was shut, leaving the fairies on the other side of the wall.

"Just a stupid wall, what is this?" He said kicking the wall, but what he didn't know was that the wall was not really a wall but an opening into the labyrinth which when he lost his balance left him freefalling down into a pitch black pit of nothingness.

The pitched black lighting (or lack thereof of light) stopped and a dirt room with three mattresses piled onto the floor cushioned his fall. It was lit up with torches and Johnny was beginning to get restless, his hair which looked like it had been combed every few minutes that weren't spent smoking was now a disheveled mess, his white shirt now had dirt smeared over it from the fall, he was beginning to panic like a mouse in a maze.

"In a bit of a pickle are we?" Jareth came into view.

"Hey man, this is not cool alright? Just give me back my kid and everything will be alright." He said looking through his pockets for something.

"Or what? I am king here, therefore what I say goes, it's a lovely little system. The offer still stands, I could let you sit in this oubliette for the next 12 hours and 10 minutes and you walk away with nothing or you could take the crystal and forget about the baby."

Johnny looked at him, thinking over the deal. After about a minute he spoke up. "All my dreams will come true, if I take that crystal right there in your hands?"

"Yes."

"Jeez, why didn't I just take the thing sooner?" He said walking over to the Goblin King and snatched the crystal out of his hands.

It wouldn't have been a few seconds later when disappeared with a pop. A news article flashed up onto the crystal screen that read:

"Johnny Witlock is the newest sensation with his new guitar style…"

So just like that he gets to be a famous singer whilst a young mother is without her child and the baby will grow up in a life without parents, because that seems fair I thought to myself.

I picked up one of the books that I picked up from the castle's library about the history of Fae leaders and their kingdoms and grabbed an apple from the bowl. I laid the book on my lap and began to cut pieces of the apple off to eat. I was so engrossed in reading that I didn't hear the flutter of wings enter my room.

"Good to see you are researching my people."

"Good to see you like making grand entrances. I have a door; you don't need to go in through the window." I said looking up with a smile.

Gk: You never did tell me who the cake was for.

Lady: Good point, if I did you probably wouldn't have stolen a slice.

Gk: Unless it is Sarah I don't see how the mysterious cake receiver should change my views on my king tax on the cake.

Lady: King tax? You don't rule over this land and I don't believe anywhere a King can tax people not of his own land.

-Phantom of the Opera theme music starts playing-

Lady: See what you've done? He's not going to be happy with you after I tell him you took the slice of the cake.

Gk: -beginning to go pale- He doesn't scare me.

Lady: Judging my your pallid complexion, I find that hard to believe.

-Lady walks through the mirror with a cake, Jareth is finding excuses to keeps his hands at the level of his eyes by fixing up his hair.

Erik: Please tell Jareth thank you for sampling my cake, makes me certain those Goblins didn't try and poison it by 'helping'.

Goblin: Please rate and review!
