A/N: What could be funnier than all your favorite Buffy characters (that are still alive post Sunnydale) traversing to many different worlds and discovering that as of now anything is possible? If I make any mistakes I beg you to correct me, but some of this is intended to be out of character. And to explain why Kendra is not even mentioned in this story, I hate her! She is EVIL!

Chapter 1: The Universe Hates You

They had no way of knowing it, but the universe was improbably against them. At the moment the anomalies and paradoxes in their future were incomprehensible to them. Of course this unfortunate group was none other than the soon to be ruthlessly tossed together again post Sunnydale Buffy crew.

Now, regarding a certain blonde vampire, Spike, and his loss of solidness and such, it must be understood that the same forces that brought them all together had turned him human. It must also be understood that most of the experiences during his duration with Angel have been erased. (Mostly because the author has never seen any of the episodes of Angel with Spike on them, so no body get all huffy about it!)

Coming around respectively; Buffy, Dawn, Xander, Willow, Giles, Faith, Spike (newly turned human), Wood, and Andrew each made various groaning noises while coming to terms with their strange surroundings. Unfortunately for him, before anyone could notice he was even there, Andrew was sucked into a portal that sent him back where he came from. (This is because it is common sense that Jonathan should have been the nerd that survived.)

Our little group found that they had awoken, and that was all they really got the chance to notice before they were being attacked by a dozen little green creatures. Sadly for the creatures everyone was able to easily toss them to the ground while standing up.

"Bloody hell" Spike yelled as one of the green creatures bit his hand. He quickly dealt it a blow that knocked it out without any thought at all. Then it hit him that he had actually gotten hurt for the first time in a long while. "What the …" he began before he noticed the warmth of the sun on his face and that it wasn't harmful. "Bloody…I mean…there's got to be…am I human?"

"Wait, you're human" Dawn stopped to ask and gawk at Spike. While her attention was otherwise occupied she got a sharp whack on the back of her head. She turned around quickly, effectively dislodging one of the creatures from her shoulder.

"What are these things" called out Buffy.

"I think they look like a species of goblin" Willow replied and backhanded one of the offensive little things.

"Yes, yes" said a particularly puke green goblin. "King give order. Him say bring people to him."

"There's a king" Xander stopped struggling with the goblins tugging on his pant legs long enough to picture a bigger and uglier version of the goblins. He shuddered and suddenly looked up.

They were all beginning to notice the city around them, but even more so they noticed the towering castle in the center of the city. Even more notable was the labyrinth surrounding the city that stretched on to meet the horizon.

"Where are we" Wood asked bewildered.

"Indeed, most people who end up here know very well where they are" an extravagantly dressed man with a British accent and an annoyed tone appeared in front of them. "You are in the goblin city beyond the labyrinth." Then to the goblins that had begun to slowly back away in fear, "It is very clear that you lot can not do anything therefore I am forced to do it myself. If you can't shape up and stop getting beaten by mortals, even when they are mortals paired with a witch and two slayers, I shall be forced to relieve you of your positions! Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes your majesty. You clear King Jareth" babbled the goblin that had spoken to the group before.

"Good" said Jareth his mismatched eyes, one a cold ice blue and the other brown, giving the goblin a death glare. The goblin promptly turned tail and ran after the others. "Now, if you would kindly inform me why you are here" he turned back to the bewildered group.

"You're the goblin king" Xander's one eye widened.

"Yes, yes and they are quite useless creatures. Now I assume you do have a reason for being here" Jareth tapped his foot impatiently.

"Actually we have no idea how we got her or why" Giles began cleaning his glasses on his shirt.

"Well, this hasn't happened during my rule" Jareth crossed his arms and frowned. "Just what I need, first Sarah and now this" he muttered.

"What'd you say" Faith spoke up.

"Nothing" snapped Jareth.

"It's a girl guys" a smirk spread over Faith's face.

"I don't think it's a good idea to get this guy mad Faith, he's Fae, a purely magic being" Willow hissed.

"I suggest you listen to the witch, slayer, I'm much more powerful than I look" Jareth growled.

"Well so is she" Faith retorted.

"I've read a bit on this place, I think we need Jareth not to be mad at us. I think he just may be able to figure this stuff out" Willow said.

"Good luck getting his help! He's been mad as a raging basilisk ever sense the little lady left" snickered a dwarf that had walked over to stand next to the group.

"Hogwart-"

"Hoggle"

"Whatever, I suggest you shut your mouth and leave before you even think about saying another word" Jareth ground out.

"Yes your majesty" Hoggle bowed and shuffled off. As he did so he muttered, "Wouldn't haveta be like dis if he'da just left Sarah's brother out o' it."

"Hogbrain" Jareth called warningly and the dwarf picked up his pace. Then to our group, "Shall we proceed to my conference room?"

"Just one thing, did anybody notice that I'm pretty sure I'm human" Spike said. This caught everyone's attention and they all turned to stare wide eyed at him. "Just sayin" he said a little self-consciously.
