I stared at Jareth, he stared back. I felt Jareth try to force my eyelids closed. I waggled a finger at him; he gave up and blinked.
"Yes!" I screamed, jumping up. "I am invincible!"
"Good game." Jareth said, also standing. We slapped fists. I stood slightly shorter than he did, and my hair was a sharp contrast to his, both in length and color. Oddly, our eyes were the same shade of steel gray.
He and I had been friends ever since I could remember. Probably because I was the only stolen child who defeated him.
I was about one when he took me, and right from the start I was a nuisance. I pulled and poked everything I could. Eventually I poked Jareth in his eye.
By the time I was five, I learned the very basic spell of lightning strikes to make entrances ominous. Now, at fourteen, I was beginning to learn how to turn cloth into animals, and vice-versa. I was also learning to conjure up solid matter from nothing.
Jareth held up a crystal, "Take a look." he said. In the crystal I saw a girl about my age with long, black hair that had streaks of reddish- brown in it. She was passing through the gates of the Labyrinth. "She is called June," Jareth began. "She wished a child her a little while ago. I want you to handle it."
"Okay." I said, turning into a large raven and flying off to the edge of the Labyrinth.
