Ch. 1
A handsome young man of seventeen sat on a park bench reading aloud from his favorite book "Labyrinth" while his dog, Bison, rolled in the grass beside him. The only other creature present was a large and radiant owl with golden feathers and sharp eyes that never left the black-haired beauty for a moment.
Suddenly, the clock in the town square struck 7:00.
Startled, the teen, Riki, jumped up and tucked his book into his jacket pocket. "Shit! I'm late! C'mon, Bison!" he called as he ran from the park. The golden owl watched Riki leave with a seemingly sad expression.
While Riki ran, it thundered and began to rain hard. "Just great! It's not fuckin' fair!" he yelled. He finally reached the front steps to his house completely soaked. His step-mother stood there angrily with her hands on her hips. "About time you got here! Don't just stand there, c'mon!"
Riki glared and pushed past her. She turned back to Bison. "Get! Go to the garage, you filthy thing!" she snapped. Bison whined and obeyed. With that, Mimea went into the house and slammed the door.
"Riki, you are an hour late. You're father and I go out very rarely and..." Riki interrupted. "You go out every fuckin' weekend!" he snapped back. Just then, Riki's father, Enif, came down the stairs.
"Oh, Riki, we were worried..." Riki stormed up the stairs calling "I can't do a damn thing right, can I?" A moment later, the door to his room slammed. Mimea shook with rage at her step-son.
"He treats me like an evil witch all the time!" She wished Riki would hurry and grow up so he would move out at last. "I'll talk to him, dear." Enif said.
(In Riki's room)
Riki's room contained many pictures of his real mother who had died in a car accident. Riki was in the car as well but had somehow survived. On his walls hung sketches he had done himself of all kinds of creatures and goblins from a far away land and, his favorite, of a handsome blonde-haired, blue-eyed man who was King of them all.
As Riki lay on his bed reading, his father's voice came through the door.
"Riki? We put Aki to bed. We're leaving and won't be back 'til midnight. Love you. Bye" Riki rolled his eyes and continued reading. An hour later, Aki burst in.
"Can you read me a story?" he asked. "No," came the emotionless reply. "Please?" Aki tried again. Riki sighed and sat up.
"Once upon a time, there was an evil child who was spoiled and selfish and treated his older brother like shit. What no one knew though, was that the King of the Goblins had fallen in love with the poor boy who everyone treated as a slave. So one night, he called on the King for help to take the wretched brat away..."
Aki began crying and ran from the room shouting "You're mean! I'm telling!" Riki laughed when, all of a sudden, his phone rang. It was his boyfriend, Guy. "Hello? Guy? Hey babe. Naw, I'm babysitting you-know-who. Yeah, I know! I wish someone would come and take him away. Right now."
As soon as he said this, the power went out. "Hello? Guy?! Shit!" He slammed the phone on the charger and went to Aki's room.
"Hey, you alright? Aki?" he asked trying the light switch. No power still. He jumped when he heard a giggle coming from the bed. "I said are you..." he yanked back the covers and was shocked to see no Aki there.
Where did the giggle come from? "Aki? This ain't funny! Where the hell are you?!" Outside, the storm grew stronger. As Riki searched in the dark, the room seemed to come alive with laughter and grotesque shapes moving about. "Who's there?!" Riki yelled.
Then, everything stopped. For a moment nothing moved. Suddenly, the doors to the balcony outside swung open and a large golden owl swooped in and flew toward Riki. Riki covered his eyes and shouted "Cut it out, you bastard!" The owl seemed to listen and drew back.
While Riki had his eyes covered he felt a large shadow fall upon him suddenly. Slowly he looked up. The owl was gone and in its place stood a tall, gorgeous stranger with long flowing, blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. He graced Riki with a small smile.
"Y-you're the Goblin King," Riki stammered. He couldn't believe the man before him was the same one who he thought he had created with his own hands. The man bowed. He wore tight black pants and a white poet shirt complete with a flowing black cape and black knee-high boots.
"My name is Iason. And you, my pet have gotten yourself into a bit of trouble, yes?" Riki stared a few seconds more before he blurted out "Where's my brother?!"
The Goblin King, Iason, smiled again and moved closer. "Riki..." he whispered...
