I was watching Labyrinth, again, and noticed at the end of the movie Sarah's father asks if she's home. That got me wondering--it's after midnight and she babysitting--where else would she be?

This is my first fic, please let me know what you think

Chapter 1-What's Mine



Robert bouncing Toby on his knee, "Up we go..... up we go."

Toby giggles and claps his hands.

"He does enjoy that doesn't he." said another voice from across the room.

Robert looked up from Toby to see the Goblin King lounging in the doorframe.

"What are you doing here?" Robert uttered in a shaking voice while clutching Toby to his chest.

Jareth calmly walks across the room to stand behind Robert's chair. He bends over to whisper in his ear "I've come for what's mine."

"I... I.... I" Robert stutters while looking fearfully at the Goblin King.

Jareth crosses behind Robert's chair to his other side. "That I had forgotten. No I was merely waiting till it was time."

Robert can only clutch at Toby as Jareth moves to stand in front of him. "No, not Toby, please!"

"What makes you think I want him, hmmm?"

"But why else would you have waited so long?"

"Don't worry I won't take your heir, I can understand that. But a daughter always leaves her father's house, does she not?"

"Not Sarah, she's only a girl."

"Yes, she is." He smirked at Robert. "I was going to wait until she was of age. But having spent time in her company, and her having spent 13 hours in my kingdom."

Robert's face grew ashen as he realized what Jareth meant by 13 hours.

"That I have decided not to wait."

Eyes brimming with unshed tears asked, "Your not going to turn my baby into a goblin?"

"No, I'm going to turn her into my Queen. Just as I'd planned since I first came for her when she was four. At first I was going to take her to become a goblin but she was so like her mother that I knew she would be a beautiful woman. So I decided that since she was mine to do with as I choose that I would choose make her my Queen."

Robert just stared aghast at the Goblin King shaking his head.

"You know very well that you gave me the right when you failed to complete the labyrinth in time. You said that if I didn't turn you sibling into a goblin that you would give me a child of yours. Sarah is that child and I've come to collect."
