Disclaimer...I own nothing except for the characters that had never been
seen before. Okay basically the only ones who are in here that I don't own
are Jareth, Sarah, and Hoggle. I wish I did tho...that would be nice. But
at looking at everyone else, I have to wait in line...
Author Note...My normal beta reader Kenraie and I were discussing the best
way to introduce the bad guy. I had come up with three possibilities...
1. Put a big sign on him that says 'I'm the bad guy!'
2. Make a blow up doll of him and let Corsair beat him around the
Underground for a bit..
or
3. (my personal favortie) Do the Darth Vader to Luke Skywalker, whole I'm
your father type of thing.
One and two were horribley dismissed and number 3 was also dissmissed when
I finally got it through to my typing fingers that having him be Daddy
would be an even worse thing and would ruin a up and coming bad, little
kids shouldn't see this, type of chapter. Ah well...on with the chapter.
(Mind you I never said little kids should look at this chapter either.)

The man slumped back in the chair, he was weak, he knew it too. But that's
not what bothered him. What bothered him was that others might also figure
this out. He needed a way to make himself more powerful, he only had one
more chance. Damn that Alden...damn Damn DAMN! Slamming his fist onto the
arm of his chair he only felt a bit better. If he hadn't come and ruined
everything...the underground would have been his.
Standing slowly he walked over to a window and looked over the trees that
blocked his view of everything. His body shuddered when he felt the power
surge that the young girl gave out. Opening his mind he smiled, she would
do nicely...and part of the very family he needed to hurt. Catching onto a
few stray and very recent memories he called out to her using her own name.
She had come...for a second he thought she was going to finish walking to
him. And in such a weak state he would have had all her power and her mind.
Something called her away and it infuriated him to no end.
Picking up the goblet from the window sill he suddenly turned and threw it
hard against the wall. It didn't shatter, he knew it wouldn't have. He
wasn't that strong anymore, but soon he would be. All he needed was to find
someone or something so new to it's power that he could wrench it away.
This coming festival was working nicely into his plans, looking down at the
long line that appeared on the stolen dragon's egg. Placing a hand on the
egg he slowly dug his nails into the crack making it grow.
Blood seeped down his arm as he violently killed the young dragon inside.
Before it died he pushed his mind into the hatchlings, stealing it's power
of magic and life. A violent power surge struck him back as the dragon gave
off it's dying cries. Even the youngest dragon knew that it's dying cry
could kill those who were weak. But this creature stealing what was not his
wasn't weak anymore...he now had a strong power...and a very dangerous mix
of power.
