Okay here you go… Sorry it took so long but first impressions are important. If you think I completely messed up this meeting tell me because this is the first time I've done this type of scene. Please, I beg you, REVIEW!

Allie arrived at the park fifteen minuets before the police showed up to make sure no hoboes or homeless kids were sleeping here. I don't see what the big deal is. Nobody else uses the park at night. She thought as she headed over towards the river that ran through the park. All along it were cypress trees and, while difficult to climb, they had to be the best hiding spot if you got high enough because no one ever looks up.

She was too short to reach even the lowest branch on these trees. Luckily there was a tree that sat by itself, near the bridge with slightly lower branches then all the rest. By getting onto the railing of the bridge she should be able to reach the lowest branch. Allie pulled herself up on to the railing and slowly stood up by balancing herself on the tree. It's okay. Just get yourself into the tree and every thing will be fine. She said to herself. I know I'm scared of heights but this is the only way. I've got to get in the tree.

Carefully she looked up the tree that was supporting her and reached slowly for the first branch. "WhoWhooooooo!" Came the angry war cry of a white owl swooping out of the tree. It came strait at her and Allie tried to shrink backwards and protect herself with her hands thrown in front of her face. The railing was too small for this though and all she managed to do was fall backwards into the river.

Now I'm wet and cold. Allie thought angrily. I'm not going to let that bird stop me from getting into the only sleeping place I can think of. I refuse to be caught again! She got up and climbed on to the bank. Glaring at the owl who had decided to watch her from the railing at the end of the bridge she shouted "Who you want to know who? I'll tell you who I'm Allie and you better remember that name because your going to pay. I'll…" She stopped talking when the owl turned into a strange man leaning against the bridge, watching her with an amused smile on his lips.

"And what, pray tell, will you do? Run away again? Maybe scream and cry like the baby you are? Hmmm?" Said the man. He was dressed strangely, in tight pants and a long billowing cape. His hair was blond and his eyes were mismatched, one was brown the other was blue. "What? Out of words little girl? Or would you like me to turn you into a Goblin?" He squatted down so that he was eye level with her. "Why did you call me Alexandra?" He said quitely.

Allie was terrified, but refused to let it show. "So you're him? This big and important Goblin king?" She asked in a tone that said I thought so, but I expected more. She thought that this would make him mad and she didn't want him mad, but since he said she called him here she had power over him. He stood up. "Is that the deal, then? I tell you I'm the Goblin King and I get you to be one of my subjects?"

Her mouth dropped open and any thoughts of power over him fled. "No!" she shouted. When did I call him here? She thought franticly. If I remember why I asked here for maybe I can get him to go away. Oh no! I wanted him here to make a deal to find out about my mom. He can't leave, yet. "I… I called you here to ask about my mom." Allie said, finding her voice. The Goblin king sneered. "And what, pray tell, makes you think I know your mother?"

He saw her indecision and panic rise. Maybe I was wrong about her. Maybe she's not the one. Then her face flushed red with anger and she opened her mouth to speak. "'Just believe in me, and you can have everything you want ... everything you have ever dreamed of ... your dreams, Sarah ...'" she quoted "Oh I think you know my mother. I think you know her better then anyone else did." She smiled, most likely thinking she now had the upper hand. We shall see little one, we shall see.

Allie had been smiling, anticipating victory, but her smile faded as the words had no effect on the Goblin King. He just stared at her curiously as if she were an animal he'd never seen before. "Ah, your Sarah's daughter. Yes I do remember her. But why should I tell you about her?" He said, arrogantly smirking. She glared at him. "I'll run your labyrinth and when I win you'll tell me every thing I want to know." He smirked. "And when you lose?" He made it a question though his voice clearly indicated that he believed she would lose. "If I lose, you can make me into one of your subjects."

The Goblin King stuck out his hand. "Deal." She shook his hand and then gasped as she looked around her. She was on a hill overlooking the labyrinth.

So what do you think? Let me know ; )
