A/N: well people this is chapter ten and that means this story's almost
over...
"Kimm!" Jareth yelled as he appeared with Mandi in his arms.
"Yes master?" the woman he was looking for asked.
"Mandi's hurt and she needs to be healed then given something to wear then sent back to finish the labyrinth." He told her
"So I heal her just well enough for her to be able to finish the maze?" she asked him before starting to heal the blond.
"No heal her fully. She deserves it." After that Jareth put Mandi down on his bed and tucked her in.
"Yes sir." The healer said to him as she shoved him out of the door. Jareth couldn't help the flash back that came to his mind.
He'd need to changed the sheets when she was okay again as the blood would make them sticky and would attract all kinds of human killing creatures. He needed Mandi to be safe from harm and be with him forever. 'It's because you love her.' A voice in his mind told him.
Matty sat on the floor in the thrown room. She was alone as one of the funny ladies had taken her little sister away for a nap.
"I bored!" She announced to herself.
"Well child there's not much we can do. Jareth is busy and Kimm is healing someone... I have no toys for a child like you but I could find you a book." The woman who was with her said.
"I no wead!" She told the lady. "I too!" She held up two fingers to emphasize her point.
"Good for you! I should teach you how to read. Would you like that little girl?" The woman asked
"I Matty." Matty told her
"That's a nice name Matty. I'm Kalicia." The woman told her.
"Petty name!" The two-year-old told her.
"Thank you Matty. Now how about I go and get a book and teach you how to read?" Kalicia asked the girl
"Otay!" Matty yelled while grabbing the woman's hand.
Mandi awoke to find herself warm and lying on a comfortable mattress. 'I must have fallen asleep after putting the two girls to bed.' She thought to herself. 'And my whole trip through the labyrinth was just a nightmare.' She opened her eyes and gasped.
"Hello Mandi how are you feeling?" Asked the woman standing next to the bed.
"Who are you?" Mandi asked
"I'm Kimm one of Jareth's main healers. He asked me to take care of you so let's get you a bath and new clothes okay?" Kimm looked at her to see what she'd say about it but Mandi just nodded.
"Okay so first things first. You need to get out of Jareth's bed. I'm sure it's very comfortable but I need to change the sheets since they're all blood soaked." Kimm said reaching to help Mandi up.
"J... Jareth's bed? I was sleeping in Jareth's bed? Oh my gods why am I in Jareth's bed?!?!" Mandi asked while raising her voice.
"Calm down Mandi it's okay. You're in Jareth's bed because he put you there so you would be safe and he could know where you were while you were hurt." The other woman explained.
Mandi allowed herself to calm down then asked, "Where's the bath?"
"Here Mandi." The woman showed her a room off to the side of the bedroom.
Mandi went into the bathroom and shut the door. The bathtub seemed to have filled itself. She undressed then slipped into the perfect water.
Kimm grined evilly. She had an hour to get the dress out for Mandi. It was the perfect plan and Jareth would never want Mandi after this.
"Well Mandi I guess I win Jareth's heart. Everything will be back to how it was before as soon as you're gone!!" She muttered to herself as she went over to the closet and opened the door. It was full of female dresses, as she had used the crystal to do so.
She pulled out one dress then a pair of shoes. After she had gotten the shoes and dress she shut and locked the door of the closet so Mandi would be forced to wear the dress.
The dress looked a lot like a balldress but it was pink and white and fluffy and matched the pink shoes that were sitting on the bed next to it. The dress would make seventeen year old Mandi look much younger. From twelve to fifteen was the age group she would seem part of when she put the dress on.
She went over and knocked on the washroom door. "Mandi Jareth has asked to see you in the breakfast room in five minutes so you better hurry up and get ready." She then left the room quickly.
Mandi left the warm steamy bathroom and returned to the main room and stood there thinking for a moment. This was an odd scene being in 'his' room wrapped only in a towel. She saw there was a dress on the bed waiting for her.
She went over and picked up the dress. "What the hell is this?" She yelled really loudly after taking a look at it. She tried to open the door she thought must be the closet but it wouldn't open.
"Damn it my only choices are to wear this nightmare or go to see him wrapped in a towel." Mandi thought about her choices and then hurried to put the fluffy dress on. She decided against the shoes.
"I'm here to take you to my master missy." A goblin said to her while walking into the room.
Mandi followed the goblin to a huge set of heavy-looking wood doors.
"This is where I'm to meet him? This is a breakfast room?" Mandi asked.
"Yes lady Mandi this is the breakfast room where Jareth is waiting for you." The goblin eyed her dress then snickered at her.
"Well then I'll go in and meet him." With that said Mandi walked into the room and stood near the table in the middle waiting for Jareth.
Slowly allowing the pictures to seep into his mind, Jareth gazed at the unkindly pink dress. The way she held her self in the dress spoke of how much she'd rather be rid of it anyway possible.
"What a fine dress, made by fairy silk and it fits you stunningly," he said out loud breaking the silence of the air as he walked out of the shadows.
"That's a lie and you know it Jareth!" Mandi said furiously.
"Now Mandi I should think you would know how to take a compliment my love." He grined watching her face go red in anger.
"I'm not yours and I will never be yours Jareth so give it up!" She yelled at him.
"Well Mandi I think you should finish the labyrinth and save that dear little girl." He said to her.
"How much time do I have left?" She asked
"One hour to get from the cliffs to here and I won't pause time for you." He told her.
"One hour? That's..." Jareth cut her off easily
"Not fair? Mandi I would expect you not to say things like that. I thought you were so mature." He said to her. "Now it's time of you to go back out into the labyrinth." With a wave of his hand Mandi appeared near the cliffs that had almost taken her life.
"Oh he's such a argghh!" She said sighing
"Mandi one last hint. Stay away from cliffs because we wouldn't want a repeat of last time now would we?" His voice asked her.
"Oh you jerk!" Mandi yelled at the air where the voice had came from.
"Who are you shouting at lady?" Asked a faerie-like voice.
"Oh gods not you faeries again. I'm not dinner got it?!" She yelled at it before turning around to see a green faerie-like creature standing there,
"I'm not a faerie I'm a maerie!" the maerie said to her
"And that means you're what a mutated faerie?" Mandi asked jokingly
"Exactly." The maerie said not laughing.
"Okay well I gotta get going now. I need to finish getting through the labyrinth." Mandi said as she started to walk in the direction her friend had been going when she had fallen off of the cliff onto a bunch of spikes that had almost impaled her.
"Let me help you miss. I like adventures and I know most of the labyrinth." The maerie said not giving up.
Mandi sighed and gestured to tell the creature to go ahead and help her so the maerie flew over next to her gratefully. They walked about a meter away from the cliff for about five minutes before Mandi stopped and sat down. She stayed there for a few minutes before she sighed and got up. They still had far to go before Alisa would be safe and Mandi could rest.
"Well where do we go now?" Mandi asked her companion.
"We just follow the cliff to the field then we walk towards the garbage piles and then we're at the Goblin City." She told Mandi.
"Well how long will that take?" Mandi asked.
"It should take ten minutes but it might take a little more depending on how fast you can walk..." she replied.
"Well let's get going now and then we'll see." Mandi told her.
They walked along a meter from the cliff for a while and Mandi sighed.
"Are we almost there?" She asked the maerie.
"I believe so... yes..." The maerie replied.
Mandi nodded and they kept walking. After about ten minutes more Mandi sighed. It seemed her new friend had lied to her but Mandi decided to keep walking until she was told that her time was up.
"Mandi." Jareth appeared in a puff of glitter and said.
"What are you doing here?" She asked him.
"Well your time is up I'm sorry to say. And you were so close too." Jareth said. "What a pity."
"Well I have a deal for you Jareth... I think you might like it...." She said
"Yes go on I'm listening." He replied.
"Well I'll offer you the one thing I think you'll want." She told him
"And that would be?" He asked her.
"Me for Alisa's freedom... I'll stay here with you until I die and you let Alisa free okay?" She asked him.
'She's offering her freedom for the child? Alisa must be very valuable to her.' "Hmmm. Well I guess I could use another slave but then you wouldn't like that... hmm..." He pretended to think it over for a few seconds and the look of blind panic on Mandi's beautiful face made him smile. "Alright Mandi you will stay here with me as a guest for the rest of your life and that child will be freed."
"Really Jareth?" She asked as her blue eyes went huge.
"Well Mandi if you don't want to then..." Mandi cut him off.
"No I'm fine with it Jareth! But how will I know if Alisa is okay? And what happens to me in the aboveworld?" She asked.
"We'll sort all that out later but for right now I think you need to have another bath then get changed into more... complimentary clothing then we need to get your room set up." He told her as they disappeared in a puff of gold glitter
The End
A/N: Well people this is the end * cries* but there will be more parts to it coming up soon so just wait!
