Disclaimer: I do not own the Labyrinth, nor do I own the characters who appeared in the movie. I do, however, own Tiani, and some other characters which I have made up.
If you in the future wish me to write about some character please send me an e-mail where you tell me about it. I won't be claiming to own those either…

Where are my shoes?
Intro:
The sun had just crept over the Labyrinth, and those nightly creatures late to their daily sleep hurried off before the golden rays scorched their delicate skins. The ones who didn't hurry off were shunned by every one else, and with good cause: they were all insomniac, and insane out of too little sleep. The rest had just begun their daily activities.

Inside the castle the king had just awoken. Stretching the stiffened muscles he looked sourly at the golden orb.
"I can do anything I please, but to move my room to an other part of the castle…" he muttered as he stood up. "… Why can't I sleep a moment longer?"
Sighing he went to the bathroom to take his morning bath, much too drowsy to notice a couple of dark eyes following him with amusement. As the slender form of the king was well under water a sigh escaped his lips, covering another sigh among the shadows.
Behind his back a dark shape tore itself from the rest in his closet, and a faint giggle was to be heard as it vanished through the open balcony door.
When he was done, he walked in to the huge wardrobe and magically lit the dark room.
Casually he got the clothes he wanted for the day and took them on. It wasn't until he stood there fully dressed that he noticed something was missing. Looking down, he saw his shoes were gone. Sighing he created a crystal and threw them at his feet, expecting them to be covered by his customary boots.
But no: The feet still remained bare. Walking over to the part of the wardrobe where his shoes normally were, he was met by an empty shelf.
Slowly it dawned on him, and the Labyrinth stopped up as a furious roar filled the air. Every one cowered at the sound. All but one, who sat in hiding amongst a huge pile of soft leather boots, laughing to her self.
Someone had stolen his shoes!

Authors note:
Well, I got the idea for this fic while watching the Labyrinth, and found myself being fascinated with his boots. Don't ask me why, but during the Magic Dance song, I wrote the intro. I wonder if it is funny at all…
In honour to my shoe-mad friend Shanice, who probably has more spiked heals than anyone I know…
Read and review, as I am eager to do the same to you…
