Through the Looking Glass

A Labyrinth fan fick by Kagome

Chapter 4 Its just a story, right?

I awoke felling safe, warm, and protected. I had a wolf curled up nest to me with his tail curled around my ankles, and strong arms wrapped around my waste, a lean chest pressed up against my back. I curled up closer the chest behind me, fitting perfectly to his form. I lay there contently, letting myself slowly wake up. I looked around the room.

It was a dark room. Draped in read and black with little pits of color splashed randomly about the place. With a start I realized how big the bed was. It was at least as big as my small room back at home. (Think of the size of a large bathroom) I shook my head finally awake. It was still dark outside the hug bay windows and I started to look around, trying to find what had woken me up. I ground silently when I found out what it was.

Both Jareth and Inu where snoring rather loudly. Occasionally they would make a really weird sound that could not be duplicated if they were awake. Mental note to self: make fun of the boys when they wake up about there snoring.

I looked at Jareth's arm and tried to figure out if he was holding me to him in his sleep, like I do with my security blanket. I think he was but I was still able to slide out from under him and make my back to my room. I got there and started looking through the clothes I was given and settled on a midnight blue dress.

Lisa walked in and started helping me into the dress. She must have been tired because she kept stifling a yawn.

"Lisa, are you a vampire?" I asked.

"Yes I am, miss. Your not going to hold that agenst me are you?" She asked in a worried voice.

"No I will never hold that agenst you. If anything I'll ask for your help with things that I know only a vampire can do. If its not to bold to ask, could you tell me what kind you are?"

"I'm of the Forest kind miss. I can be up at all hours of the day and night. I don't take the blood of humans or fae unless I can help it."

"That's asome, and will you please stop calling me miss. I would be greatly honored if you would just call me Lilly, I only want friends not servants."

"Ok, that sounds better than being formal all the freaken time." She stifled yet another yawn.

"Go back to bed, I didn't mean to wake you up." She went off, back to her room I presume, and I went to go sit by the fire in the library and started reading the book titled The legend of the wolf Queen.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Three hours later I started to realize that I was a bit hungry. I got up and stretched, and walked right back into Jareths' room without even trying to. Inu was still sleeping, he could sleep all day, Jareth was no were to be seen.

I walked over to the bed. I shook Inu to wake him up, all he did was role over.

"Inuyasha If you don't get your lazy but up I'll give you back to your former owner." I threatened. That got him up. I laughed at him and randomly picked a door. Honestly I was trying to find a way out and into the halls. What I did manage to find was a, thankfully, fully clothed Jareth admiring himself in his bathroom mirror.

"Finally awake sleeping beauty?" I asked, casing him to jump.

"There you are. I was getting worried."

"It didn't look it; looks more like you were making sure your makeup was just right." I countered. He just laughed.

"Come, we must eat breakfast." He led us out of his room and down the hall. We talked about anything, it was just a leisurely chat. He stopped in front of a pair of large oak doors and pushed them opened. There was a huge wood table with two places set next to each other. Jareth pulled out a chair for me and I stat down, he sat next to me, on my left. I motioned for Inu to sit on my other side. Jareth made a grand jester and goblins brought out our breakfast of pancakes. Fresh fruit was set on the table and one goblin set down a bowl of something for Inu. When the goblins left we started eating.

"How long were you up?" Jareth asked, trying to make light conversation.

"'bout three hours. I finished reading Legend of the wolf Queen."

"Oh really?"

"Yep, and I've never been freaked out more by a book."

"It was that scary?" he asked with one eyebrow threatening to disappear in his hair.

"It wasn't scary, it just described my life and who I am for the most part. No book has ever done that."

"That is scary. That book is a true story, the wolf queen is real. Were having troubles locating her."

"Really?"

"Oh yes. We thought we had located her some were aboveground, in Los Lunas I think." My eyes went wide at this and I almost dropped my fork. "She just disappeared one day and we never have been able to track her back down. She is suppose to have this werewolf friend, we found him but he disappeared to. He was always popping up in the Underground but now he's just no were to be found."

"Did you get the address of were this girl was, the exact place?" I asked eagerly, wanting to help. Los Lunas was my home town. (For those of you who don't know, it's a little town in New Mexico, USA)

"Um…. I think the address was something like 1100 Elm st. The werewolf lived some were else, out in the geto I believe is how you say it." At this point I was visible shaking. "I only know because this girl loves the Labyrinth. Is something wrong?" he asked, noticing my shaking hands.

"Only if you call being tracked down by fae wrong, I'm officially freaked out now."
