Disclaimer: Don't own labyrinth, or anything else you recognize. please don't sue me…
Okay, well here's the deal. This is actually my second Labyrinth fic. My last one kind of died in the idea department, though if ya'll go read it and leave me reviews maybe it will give me some ideas (it's called "Kingdom Keepers.") Soooo I hope ya'll will forgive me, and give this one a shot. I won't make any promises, but I'll try and I hope you like it. Please leave reviews, they help me write, I swear….

These Powers that Be
I hope you know this isn't how I normally operate. Stealing children, creating nightmares and dreamworlds for a…child. That's all Sarah is, despite what I may want her to be. Though to be fair, a child for which I left all the responsibilities of my kingdom, my subjects and my life for thirteen hours.
Give or take. For me, take.
Though it is really my fault she called me in the first place, and her adventure is what I made of it. The call, that is. Sadly, I have to tell you that if your little sister lost your favorite earrings, or you got stuck babysitting your brother for one too many times, saying the words would not bring me to you. There are ways, of course to reach the underworld if you are meant to be there. There are ways all around you that you cannot see. But your words do not have the power to call me.
The problem is, you didn't listen to the story. At least, you heard only what you wanted to hear.
"For the goblin king had fallen in love with the girl, and he had given her certain powers…"
That's how it was supposed to be told, anyway. So now you begin to understand. It was not any power of Sarah's that called me, except the power I gave to her. And she refused me, despite the way I turned the world around for her.
But it doesn't matter. There is fun yet to come. Because Sarah hasn't discovered the other traps, the other tools she unwittingly, perhaps unwillingly, yields to bring her back to me. There are worlds yet to be built and challenges unmet…
But next time, of course, Sarah will not win.
