Okay let's get the legal crap out of the way-
Disclaimer: I, Katania Ella Morri, in no way, shape, or form own Labyrinth or any other of the works of Jim Henson. I only wish I could come up with something good of my own to rival it. I also own none of the characters in this story, except for the one's that I inject into it. They are my own creation and should not be used without permission.
Basic summary: Sarah and Jareth fic, Jareth will be evil-I like him that way. Sarah is at college now and has forgotten about the Labyrinth, only in her dreams can she remember. She had councelling after her ordeal in the Labyrinth and she was convinced that it had been part of her over-active imagination in her childhood. The consultant convinced her that it had all been regression since her mother left and she had looked to her fairytale's for her comfort. She believed this-until now. The King is back, and he wants something...something that only Sarah can give him. His purpose for-revenge.
It's only forever,
It's not long at all,
Lost and lonely.
No-one could blame you,
For walking away.
But too much protection,
Na na,
No love injection,
Na na.
Life can be easy,
It's not always swell,
Don't tell me truth hurts,
Little girl,
Cause it hurts like hell.
But down in the underground,
You'll find someone true,
Down in the underground,
A land so blue,
A crystal blue,
Ah haaa.
It's only forever,
It's not long at all.
Lost and lonely,
Thats underground,
UNDERGROUND!
Prologue-
The world before her was fuzzy, like her vision was clouded by fog. She felt cold, the air was full of danger and she was here, in amongst it. Again. She had been here several times before in her dreams, she could not remember where it was. All she knew was that she was scared, scared of something unseen but familiar to her. Something that her soul remembered, but which her mind did not. She crossed her arms before her and tried to block out the cold by rubbing her arms to create a friction of heat.
She gazed around her surroundings. The sky above her was one of thunder clouds and lightning streaks that did not make a sound. Everything was quiet, she hated the quiet more than anything else here. It was so...deafening. She frowned and closed her eyes to pick up any sound as she stood on charred remains of once long grass. Her eyes opened once again and now the world before her was burning, the blaze was so high that it stifled the world in which it had begun. The world she was in was dying. She cried out as the blaze began to move closer to her, sweeping the grass before it, she stumbled and fell, onto the dryness of the cracked, red, earth. The girl screamed as the noise of crackling drew closer to her. She would never out-run the fire. Even if she were to try, it was already upon her, she could feel it's heat boring into her flesh and her eyes closed.
A few minutes of waiting for the touch of hot, raw heat was all she waited for now. But the fire never came. She opened her eyes and stared, frightened at what the scene may be behind her, but instead of being charred or broken, it was whole. There were tree's and plants everywhere, walls that were crumbling, but because of corrosion and age, not because of destruction or chaos. The sky was still cloudy and menacing but everything under it was calm.The relief swept over her so strongly that it left her lying on the lovely, long, green grass, panting and rubbing her face in it's lushness, the blades tickled at her rosy cheeks and she breathed in the deep scent of fresh, dewy grass, the smell she remembered from home, after her daddy had mown the lawn and it had rained. It was that smell, it was the same. Suddenly she felt more comfortable and lay on her back staring at the stormy sky.The soft feel of the grass numbed her scared senses and left her closing her eyes on a sigh of pleasure.
Then she heard it, the noise she hated, the noise she feared, a laugh that sent chills down her spine. Her eyes opened and she shot up from the ground. The earth was no longer grassy and beautiful, it was once again as it had been before, red, broken and dry. The horrid laughter ensued again, this time closer than it had been before and she took the sudden change in her heartbeat as good a 'go' signal as any. She took off at full speed, ignoring the pain that ensued in her bare feet, she just kept running for all she was worth. She had no idea where she was running to-all she knew was that she had to rid herself of the sound of that laugh. She didn't know why she was running from it-all she knew is that it meant something bad for her if she didn't get away.
She was beginning to tire but she heard the laughter echo behind her as if it was following her. She turned around once, all she saw was the world behind her being swallowed slowly by darkness. When she turned back around she saw a open set of huge gates in the middle of the ground before her, it wasn't attached to anything, it was just there, in the middle of the path she was running. It was as if some architect had given up on doing anything more with it for some reason.
She ran towards it until there was no life left in her limbs and she collapsed into a heap on the ground, gasping like a fish out of water. Her gaze started to blur as the feeling of tiredness swept upon her again, reaching a cat-like position she managed to crawl a bit on her hands and knees to the gates that were now shutting. Panting harder she pushed up with all her might and she managed to stagger to her feet finally,just as she saw the gates close before her.
She reached out as if to stop them, she was only a few feet away, she reached them and went to push them open as the darkness swept over her, choking her. Her eyes closed against it and she found herself falling in a void of complete darkness, as she fell she closed her eyes once more and cried out, as she felt her descent slow she heard a woosh of air to her left and she opened her eyes. An owl. It circled around her for a little and then strong arms grasped her from below, she screamed as she heard the laughter beside her now. Then she woke up.
Somewhere in the pits of a castle a pair of mismatched eyes glittered, "The game has now begun"

A/N: I think an OOC Jareth is boring and uninteresting. Some of the content in this story may be a tad disturbing but if you love J&S you will love this story. Please remember to R&R after you have finished reading this and chapter 1, which, coincidently was posted right after this prologue. I hope everyone will enjoy my work, I have been on FF.NET for a while now but I have not been able to write as we have moved, I have just gotten the internet back again-thank god-so bear with me here guys. The first 2 chapters may have been posted okay but I can't say there wont be a little wait for the rest. I will hopefully finish 2 chapters a week,1 at the least. I have already written idea's up about this and I know roughly how it will go-I'm really weird as I already have the ending written but then again, 'Planning ahead is planning of the future,' that's a sad little quote of mine. Chowies!
Also-Please look up my site, it has lots of fics, pics and other things that are cool! Please also-if you can or want-leave a 'comment' in the guestbook for me please as it is a brand new site!
