May The Force Be With You, Jareth

Chapter 4

LeAnn, in her wanderings around the castle, had somehow managed to make it into Jareth's bedroom. She smirked. She wouldn't do anything major. She wouldn't do anything J would notice immediatly. But it would still be devious. Not to mention it would probably get her in major trouble with Tights and gain brownie points for bravery from her friends. She snatche all of J's best pouches, conjured up a crystal, put the pouches in the crystal, then put the crystal away in her bra for safe keeping.

She then dashed out before Jareth to catch her. Seeing him, she dashed into the next door she saw. *Damn. Ballroom. I gotta get outta here before J turns the sprinklers on me...* She turned to leave, and bumped into a very familiar body. She glanced up to see Jareth, who had a very good grip on her arms. "Well well well," he said. "If it isn't you. And what, may I ask, are you doing?" LeAnn looked up at him innocently. "Nothing," she said. J smirked. "Nothing? Nothing? Nothing tralala?"

LeAnn frowned. She knew that tone. She'd seen the movie enough times to know she was in trouble. "Your aunt and uncle are going through the labyrinth this moment trying to rescue you," he said, pointing to a clock. It showed they had maybe 10 hours left. "If you don't behave," Jareth told her, "I'll move time. I'll move it so they'll never have a chance of getting to you on time. And to make sure you behave, I'm locking you up in one of the spare rooms. Not even this little toy," he told her, taking her lightsaber away.

"Oh no you don't. NOBODY takes my lightsaber away..."LeAnn growled, attempting to draw the weapon back to her own hands with the Force. She looked shocked that she couldn't do it. Jareth snickered. "I see you've finally found a new property of my realm. No Force ability. Magic only." LeAnn raised an eyebrow at him, then smirked. "Fine. If that's the game you want to play, then I'm willing to play it," she said, pulling the lightsaber to her hand with the Fae magic she'd stolen. She grinned as Jareth's eyes went wide in shock.

"Nice library you've got, Jareth. Very interesting books in there. Well, I'd love to stay and chat, but, I've gotta go find Uncle Luke and Aunt Mara," she said, grinning. Jareth only smiled. "Go ahead. I don't want you around anyway," he told her. LeAnn wasn't quite sure why he was smiling. She didn't trust him. Still, she made the effort to do the translocation.....

And failed. She glared at the goblin King, who was laughing. "Undo the anti-translocation spell," she told him. He didn't listen. He was too busy laughing. LeAnn was pissed. She used her thespian magic to put him back into the pink harem outfit. You realize, of course, Tights," she said, "this means war." Jareth raised an eyebrow at her, then saw what she had done. "You're right," he said. "This is very much war...." The battle between King and listian had begun.
