CS: *walks in with a black eye* Hi! Don't worry I got her too! Hee hee. Any way I had a burst of inspiration at guess what time MIDNIGHT FOR CHRIST'S SAKE! God, why can't I get a good nights' sleep? Speaking of nights sleep…*grins wickedly and opens the blinds* Rise and Shine boys!
Bowie and Jareth: *moans*
CS: Well I can only deal with one of you at a time and since Bowie here has a wife… *makes a crystal and sends David home to his wife and babe* Now Jareth, I TOLD you to stay out of my wine cellar! That was my most expensive enchanted peach wine! You know how hard that is to find! *growls and puts on a nose plug* I'd get up if I were you…
Jareth: No! Sunlight bad, sleep good. *rolls over on throne until he is facing away form the sun*
CS: Oh well… *snaps her fingers and two buckets appear- one with freezing cold water, one with scalding hot water* Time for the Fezzik treatment.
Jareth: The What!
CS: *grabs Jareth by his hair and dunks him in the cold water than the hot and keeps repeating* Now while I revive our dear king, read my lovely story.
DISCLAIMER: Hmmm… yes my name is Jim Henson and I own all of you! Ha ha HA Ha ha HA uh… No. Okay Jaden belongs to Spider Girl, not me. And please, ask before you use him- thank you!
Chapter Six: A peak into the past
Celeste had fallen in love two years before the change. His name was Gabriel. His hair was fiery red and went straight to his shoulders. His eyes were like to misty fogs she loved to get lost in. He was smart and sly and always knew how to put a smile on Celeste's face. But like most Fae, his patience level was low, and she loved to tease him about it. He was a common Fae, a knight in her father's court. But to her, he was perfect. And when he proposed to her Celeste had never felt so elated. Life couldn't have been better.
But of course, Life has this terrible habit of kick people in the ass when they least expect it. The night before the wedding Jaden had burst into her room. Celeste was surprised. He was panting and looked frightened.
"Jaden! What's the matter?" Celeste went to get him a glass of water when he grabbed her arm to stop her.
"It's Gabriel. Something's wrong. Gavinn found him and he was so weak he just brought him to the castle. You have to come see him, he keeps asking for you."
Celeste nodded and created a crystal transporting them both to Gavinn's castle. She turned to ask her brother where Gavinn was when a wet cloth was held over her mouth and nose. She barely had time to react, the world spun and collapsed into darkness.
She awoke sometime later, an hour at the most. She opened her eyes to find her fiancé tied to the wall. His face was so swollen she could barely tell it was him. His exposed chest had burn and scratch marks all over it. Both of his legs were cruelly twisted stating that they were broken. Fear took hold over her heart as she took in his state. Panicking, she tried to move but found she was bound to a chair.
Finding her voice, she whispered to her husband-to-be, "Gabriel?"
His head tipped up eyes looking at her face. He managed what looked like a smiled and whispered her name.
"Ah, the two lovers are united. How sweet," A mocking British voice said.
Celeste's head swung up to look upon her captor, disgust and anger shinning in her eyes. "Gavinn. I knew you were jealous but this is crossing the line. When Jareth finds out he'll-"
"Jareth won't find out," said Jaden, coming into her view for the first time. "I'll be sure of that."
"Jaden," Her heart ached from the betrayal. "What's going on? What are you doing here?"
"Isn't it obvious, my sweet sister. I'm helping Gavinn here. To end Jareth's rule I have to weaken his heart. And with his favorite sister gone it will break his heart into a million pieces, especially when you lure him to me."
"No!" Celeste eyes welled with tears but she held them back bravely. "You may have betrayed my trust, Jaden, but I refuse to betray his."
"Yes, but if you don't do that, lover boy here dies."
"Kill me instead!" Celeste said, wanting to save both her love's and her brother's life.
"Never," Gavinn said- coming into the conversation for the first time since his opening line. "You will be my queen after I get rid of this piece of trash who isn't worthy of you."
"I would never be able to sink so low to be worthy of you Gavinn," Celeste retorted. She felt the sting of his hand a split second after she saw his hand fly.
"I'd watch your mouth. No matter, once I tame you, you won't even care for Gabriel anymore. And since I dislike the lad- it's time for you two lovers to say bye-bye."
"NO!" Celeste screamed as she watched Gavinn slit open her love's throat and 5 starving vampires start lapping up the blood.
Celeste heard a gurgle that sounded suspiciously like 'love you' but she would never know for sure. Tears finally overcame her vision- she couldn't see, her sobs echoed in her ears as she kept screaming for her lost love. She barely registered her hair being pulled aside until the fangs pierced her throat. She screamed in agony, trying to release her from his arms.
"Celeste it's okay everything is going to be fine. It's okay. Shh, it'll be all right."
Celeste eyes opened to find herself wrapped in both Sarah's and Jareth's arms. Not able to keep the mask on any longer she burst into tears, burying herself in her brother's chest.
