x-X-x

Jareth sat on his throne, his riding crop in his hands as he tapped it on his boot in a thinking manor. He didn't know what to go about approaching the woman, Kagome.

The Labyrinth had choosing her as his. He knew that. The whole Underground felt the shifting of the Labyrinth. They felt her enter it, and felt how everything was completed.

Jareth had a feeling many of the royals…his parents even, would show up to find out what the disturbance was just to make sure it was what they thought it was. Many knew that the shift could mean a couple of things, but one being the Goblin Queen had come.

The first way a disturbance could happen would be if he died, the second he was beaten in the Labyrinth, which hasn't ever happened….so far. The other and last reason the Labyrinth would shift…would be because a Queen was found.

Jareth knew what the shift meant…but it was hard to process. After so many years alone, waiting for her to arrive, wishing for her to arrive and when he finally gave up home to find her, she arrived.

It was hard to grasp, that she, Kagome, His queen was here. She was here and within his grasp. His queen was in his...no their kingdom.

A smirk slowly came to Jareth's face as he thought of it, but quickly turned to a frown. He knew his queen was there….but she wasn't his yet. She could reject him.

She could reject the Labyrinth.

His eyes narrowed at that thought, he would have to find a way to 'woo' her. That or make sure she didn't win.

The Labyrinth and the ones who lived in the Labyrinth would help her win, even if it was unintentionally done. It would still happen.

Jareth couldn't let it though.

She was within reach and he wasn't going to let her escape that easy.

To him this was more than a game…..and it seems he better show her that.

But how!

The scowl on the Goblin Kings face deepened as he thought, His queen was so close and he could do anything. It was infuriating.

It looks like he had a plane to think up.

Sighing He ran a hand over his face and summoned a crystal trying to think up ways to 'woo' his queen and make her fall in love with him enough to stay in the underground forever.

Kagome sighed as she took another wrong turn, it seemed like the Labyrinth was really trying to make sure she wasn't going anywhere. She kept ending back at almost the same spot!

Huffing Kagome muttered, "You are a very evil Labyrinth…"

After saying that, the next thing Kagome knew was the floor beneath her opening, and swallowing her up. The fairy that she was with looked at her and was about to follow before the floor closed up again.

Kagome bit her lip to keep her from screaming from the drop, and gave a relieved sigh when she landed on grass.

Blinking Kagome slowly got up, "NOW, where did you send me you silly Labyrinth!"

'I sent you somewhere to think…somewhere where you can see the beauty of what the underground could offer you.'

Jumping at the sound of the voice Kagome turned around to see a little girl, her eyes were red, and her hair just as gold as the sun. She wore a smile blue sundress and no shoes, across the face of the little girl was jagged black markings, tribal markings Kagome guessed but she wasn't too sure.

"Who are you?" Kagome asked, but she already had a feeling she knew. There tone of voice the girl had was the same as the Labyrinth she heard when she first arrived.

The girl smiled slowly, 'You know who I am….'the girl tilted her head to the side, 'There is no denying that you don't feel the connection we share.'

Kagome didn't understand, "Connection? What connection?"

The little girl looked at Kagome silently for a moment, 'The connection that makes you feel complete now that you are here….the whole Underground felt it.'

Kagome frowned still not understanding why she was so special. She just wanted to be normal, was that too much to ask, to have a normal HUMAN life!

'You are meant to be here….I have waited for a long time.' The girl, the Labyrinth, Kagome mentally reminded herself started to say, ' I chose you a long time ago.

The soul that would be pure, but could fight. A soul that would help us, the underground, Me, the Labyrinth grow to what it should be.'

"Why me though…I am not that…" She didn't finished what she was saying before the girl, the Labyrinth appeared in front of her.

'YOU are those things; you made me mad before…' Red tinged the cheeks of the girl, 'You talked about leaving…..wanting to leave here….leave me!"

Kagome could hear the hurt and disappear in the Labyrinths voice and felt a twinge in her heart. She didn't want to hurt anyone, but she still wanted to go home!

This place wasn't that.

Home was where her flesh and blood was.

Home was here Inuyasha and the rest of her friends were.

That was home.

With People she loved and would sacrifice everything for.

'You made me soooo mad…' the Labyrinth looked down, ' I yelled, and didn't tell you what I meant. I didn't get to tell you why I wanted you to stay. What I chose you for.'

Looking up the Labyrinth sighed and averted her eyes from Kagome, 'since I got mad…..i wanted to show you that this place isn't all bad.'

Pausing the girl turned to look off in the distance, 'I wanted to show you as the Goblin Queen, what you could have. What I am offering to you!'

Kagome looked at the girl wide eyed, "QUEEN!"

The Labyrinth smiled widely, 'Yes, You are the one I choose for Jareth. His chosen. His queen. His love. One who compliments him…one who compliments me!'

After this said Kagome knew no more and blacked out, her thoughts swirling that she was choosing to be wed, that she was to be queen, and that the girl was the Labyrinth she was to run to win her freedom.
