Sadly I do not own the labyrinth...if I did it would have ended differently.

Toby to the ground, his feet ached and had blisters. It felt like he had been walking in circles for hours; though in truth it had been less than an hour. As Toby sank there was an "Allo" spoken just beside his ear, he turned his head and there, a few inches to his right, was a worm wearing a scarf. And it had spoken to him! Toby didn't know of any worms back home that could speak.

"Did you just say 'Allo'?"

"Why yes I did, you're a smart young fellow. Would you like to come inside and meet the missus?"

"I would love to, but I can't. I have to find my sister, have you seen her?"

"Tall, dark hair, doesn't take time to talk to worms, master says her name is Sarah, that her?"

"Yes it is! Which way did she go?" Toby hurriedly asked,

"You haven't taken the 13 hour challenge have you?"

"13 hour challenge? What's that?"

"Ah, good, you haven't. Then I'm free to tell you to go that way and not the other, you'll get to your sister faster."

"Thanks Mr. Worm." Toby got off and rushed to the way the worm had pointed. He didn't even bother to question about the brick wall, for some strange reason, he already knew.

"Nice boy, Should have him over sometime for tea with the missus and myself."

As Toby walked further along he found himself surrounded by all types of creatures. Some were more human like than others, though they were taller, paler, and much more beautiful than anything Toby had ever seen and even though he was only 5 he had seen a lot in his short lifetime. There were also short ugly creatures, short, stout, grumpy creatures and all kinds of beings Toby had only seen in the books Sarah read to him. Toby walked up to one of the tall beautiful beings; which he would later learn were Fae. And tugged at her dress, she looked down at him with dark knowing eyes.

"A human? Mortal, what are you doing here?"

"I need to find my sister, Sarah. Have you seen her?"

"The goblin king's chosen is your sister?"

"The goblin king? What has he chosen Sarah for?"

The Fae smiled, "Ah, you are still young. The goblin king wishes to make her his wife."

"His Wife?!"Toby gasped "No he can't, she needs to come home."

The Fae woman smiled sweetly at Toby and caught his hand, "Come little one, I will take you to Jareth."

"Jareth? Who is Jareth?"

"The goblin king."

Toby let her lead him, Fine, but this 'Jareth' Still could not have his sister!

"Announcing the Lady Morgan, and guest?"

Jareth dismissed the goblin, who happily left; Jareth didn't like surprises and he didn't want to be close enough for Jareth to kick him.

"Hello Morgan, And.." Jareth smiled when he saw Toby "Ah, little Toby. Welcome back to my home, and soon-if Sarah wishes-Yours."

Jareth turned to Morgan "My thanks. Where did you find him?"

"He found me Jareth, he was asking about your chosen; His sister. And I brought him to you." J

areth nodded "Thank you Morgan, you may leave now." He waved her off.

"Come here Toby, I'm not going to hurt you."

"Who are you? And where is Sarah?" Toby demanded, he was growing impatient; All he wanted was his sister.

"Ah, Sarah will be here soon enough. In the meantime, come and sit."

Toby recognized the man called 'Jareth' as the man from his dreams and the voice from Sarah's room. But who exactly was he? And where was Toby? Toby shook his head, this king Jareth had promised him that he would see Sarah soon. And when she got here, Toby knew she would be able to answer his questions. Toby focused on something else; The 13 hour clocks that were all around. Again they were familiar to him, like a memory that had faded away. And it seemed that they were about to chime 13 any moment now. One of the goblins had told Toby-after he had finished serving Jareth his drink-That when it did chime 13,time would be up and there would be a long awaited wedding.



Sarah, hair messy and clothes torn, fumed. She had finally gotten through the roses and barely had any time left to breathe. When she got to the castle-And she swore to herself while tying up certain spots on her clothing, she was not going to let Jareth have the satisfaction of seeing her half naked-That she would skin Jareth alive. After she found her around the massive hedges, Sarah found herself surrounded by goblins and all other types of mythical beings she had read about. Sarah looked around nervously, were they going to try to stop her? A very tall Fae woman stepped forward and nodded slightly at Sarah,

"Greetings beloved of Jareth am Morgan, and I am here to help you get ready."

"Ready for what?"

The Fae smiled warmly "For your wedding ball, Jareth sent me."She replied.

Sarah nearly fainted, "Look, I agreed to marry him only if I don't complete the labyrinth in time, I still have some time left."

"But not long Dear one, Jareth will make a fine husband, and you will not want for anything."

"Except maybe a normal life. Now if you will excuse me, this is wasting my time." Sarah pushed past Morgan and the goblins, she had time. She was not, I repeat not, going to become Jareths wife!

Toby watched out one of the large windows, waiting for Sarah to come and take him home. Though Toby had to admit, he would miss this place, it felt like home. Home! Surely by now someone had noticed that they were gone; Him and Sarah. They must be worried sick! Then Toby spotted her, Sarah was coming that way and fast. With no time to spare either. Toby shouted out to her

"Sarah!"

Sarah looked up, she had heard Toby call her name. Toby? No, he was at home, wasn't he? If Jareth had taken him again Sarah would…What would she do? Sarah felt tired, lightheaded, dizzy. Then Sarah was falling, everything was turning black. The last thing Sarah saw before she passed out was Jareths face, and behind him the clock struck 13.

A/N:AHHHH,Damn,she missed the deadline by a minute,she was almost there too.Stupid Jareth,sending morgan to stall her.

Jareth:Its not my fault,blame Toby!

ChibiFrog:You be quiet!

Next chappie;TOBY! Screaming,kicking (Mostly aimed at Jareth) ,insults and yes of course;Toby!
