A/N: You guys are the best. Smiles at faithful reviewers. So to answer questions. Jareth will eventually kick King Amándir's butt, remember I'm setting up the history, Jareth knows this guy is evil and deep down is relieved that the Queen took off and disappeared so that he couldn't hurt the little girl. So anyway I promise this guy will pay. This next section is devoted to catching up with Sarah.

You may also note there are large time Jumps (Im doing this to avoid a lot of what I call writers drivel)

Disclaimer: Sighs no I do not own the Labyrinth or any of its inhabitants.

Prologue Part 3: Sarah's 10 Birthday:

Robert paced back and forth he was still undecided whether his gift would be appropriate. But it was the only thing her mother had that he thought was worth saving, that and a small ring she wore on her pinky finger.

He caressed the red leather book with good lettering across it. He had read it once, it seemed interesting enough for a fantasy book but he still worried that it might be to old for Sarah or that she may not like it.

He then swallowed the lump in his throat and walked up the stairs. He knocked lightly on her door.

"Good morning princess" He said cheerfully.

"Morning daddy." Sarah replied sleepily.

"Sarah I have something very special for you."

"You do." She sat strait up in bed grinning from ear to ear.

"Sarah, your mother had this book with her, I want you to have it."

Sarah stroked the book, looked at the title "The Labyrinth" she said aloud. "What is it about daddy."

"Well Sarah you can read and find out for yourself" He answered amusedly.

For the next week Sarah could hardly put the book down, everything seemed so amazing to her, she kept the book at home and coveted it, as it was the only thing her mother had left.
