Chapter Two
Down in the Underground, there is royalty of all kinds of creatures. There is the queen and king of the fairies, the king of goblins, the king and queen of the elf people, and we have the queen of the whole underground Amelia. Today is her day to retire because she feels she is too old to go on alone and rule without a king by her side. She has never found love after her beloved King Richard died. Amelia can still remember the way he looked, he was tall probably taller than any Fae male she has ever seen. He has long, flowing brown hair that he always had pulled back in a ponytail, his eyes were a deep, dark brown that made one think of fall, so easy to get lost in, and they were that beautiful. Everyone liked Richard, well… maybe not everyone, Jareth didn't like the way he ruled or maybe it was because Amelia chose Richard to rule beside her and not him. She wanted a good king someone nice, someone who loved her unconditionally. After Richard died everyone around the kingdom thought that Amelia lost her mind talking sometimes in a way people got confused and did not understand, almost like she is talking in riddles. In their throne room in the king's chair is a portrait that was painted of the king that the queen sits in his chair and she won't let anyone go near it. For those in the kingdom they believe that is the reason why Queen Amelia has decided to step down she is too tired of being alone, and she is wasting away from a broken heart and the responsibilities of ruling the whole underground. The Throne Room. A place where everyone in the queen's castle knew where to find her especially her lady in waiting, Krysta. She stands in the doorway watching the queen kneel before the king's chair talking to his portrait. She can't hear what is being said but watches sadly knowing how much she misses her king. Krysta thinks back when she met Amelia and Richard, it was a century ago she was a teenager watching her home get invaded by the evilness in the next kingdom over. The kingdom always dark, full of hatred, and scary monsters you only see in your nightmares. Krysta was hiding in a room watching her parents and siblings getting murdered for the belongings, she ran as fast as she could she ended up in the Labyrinth crying, alone, and scared. Jareth found her and took her to Amelia and Richard; they gave her a home and adopted her as their child. Amelia always wanted children of her own but found out the devastating news that was not possible for her. She cried her dream was always to have a big family with lots of children and maybe grandkids someday, but they loved Krysta liked she was their own. Even though Krysta is of an elfin race. A lot of woman would be envious of Krysta, they would put makeup on to make them beautiful, and Krysta is naturally beautiful. She has dark black hair, very shiny that goes to her shoulders, her bangs are spiky and hang in the middle of her forehead. Her hair is pushed back behind her pointed ears, she has eyes that look like violet jewels in the sockets that are shaped like diamonds. Being the lady in waiting, she could have the most beautiful gown, but she decides to make her own clothes. Krysta is wearing a pink shirt with a spaghetti strap over her left shoulder, her right shoulder is bare. The shirt goes a little bit below her breasts, leaving her mid-section bare and very toned looking, her arms are also muscular not big just well-toned, she is wearing a long flowing ruffled blue skirt that goes to her ankles, she is also wearing what looks like sandals that a human would wear but more odd looking. She wears a velvet purple cape over her shoulders that buttons at the neck, rounding out her outfit is a pendant giving to her by the queen. It's a silver chain around her neck with a violet jewel in the center the size of a silver dollar. Every kingdom has pendants. Royalty and the town's people wear them to let everyone know what kingdom they are from. Royalty has the biggest pendants, people living in the castle are a little smaller, and town's people are smaller than that. After Richard died two years ago from the war, Amelia decides that Krysta will learn how to fight and also besides being her daughter, and lady in waiting she will also be her personal body guard. The queen had the general of her army, which held Fae, Elf, and other numerous creatures. Krysta is good fighting hand to hand but better with weapons. Her weapon of choice is the Sais; she always gets her target whether she aims for the heart or the head. Krysta's loyalty is to the queen, but will she be loyal to the new queen. Krysta cleared her throat loudly from the doorway to make her presence known, the queen quickly stood up wiping her eyes, and she turned around slowly staring at Krysta, her daughter, friend, and protector. The queen then sat down in her chair as she grabbed a goblet next to her on the table and held it in her hand before she took a sip of the wine in the glass. Than talked to Krysta. "What can I do for you dear?" Amelia asked her with gentleness and love in her voice, Kyrsta walked slowly towards her as she got in front of her she bowed down on one knee. Amelia didn't say anything just made movement with her hand for her to rise. She stood up looking the queen in the eyes. "The dwarf is here, your majesty." Kyrsta replied softly. "Show him in." said the queen again with the wave of her hand. Krysta again bowed her head. She turned and walked away to the door she opened it motioned for the dwarf to come in. The dwarf got to the door. "It's Hoggle." He replied mad that no one in the kingdom can ever get his name right. As he passed her, she looked him in the eyes and replied back in a non-caring tone of voice. "I don't care." She walked out of the room closing the door leaving Hoggle alone with the queen. He rolled his eyes at Krysta in annoyance as he walked past her, and made his way to the queen. He bowed his head and looked at her, waiting for reason on why she called him. "Hoggle, you may be wondering why I called upon you today." The queen looked at him trying to read his expression but he looked confused. "Yes, your majesty." Hoggle replied with his head down, scared. The queen looked down at him and smiled. "You don't have to be afraid of me; I am not cruel like some." The queen stated. Hoggle looked up at the queen, waiting for the reason he is there. "You are here today, to bring an old friend back to the kingdom." The queen said smiling at Hoggle. "Who is it, your majesty?" Hoggle requested. "Sarah." The queen replied continuing to smile at Hoggle. His face lit up, he hasn't seen her much, after she defeated the Labyrinth, Sarah called upon him, Sir Didymium and Ludo every once in a while when she had something to share that she couldn't share with her other friends or family. He was happy, that she was able to come back but has never told anyone he missed having her around, which is hard for him to admit to her or anyone else, she would make it easier for him to deal with Jareth since he still worked for him. After Sarah left Jareth took all his anger mostly out on him, because Jareth was more jealous of him than any of her friends, so Hoggle would have nasty jobs to do around his kingdom, but he put up with it knowing that he was able to do something the Goblin King couldn't do, he could talk to Sarah whenever he wanted to, but he would never tell the king that. Jareth thinks Sarah forgot all about her friends after she left the Labyrinth and seen them for the last time in the celebration in her room, Hoggle wonders what Jareth would do if he knew Sarah talks to him and not to Jareth she never even mentions his name. The queen sent Hoggle to go to Sarah and bring her back immediately. At The Goblin City, inside the castle, the king is sitting in his chair with his legs over the side, his mind on one thing and one thing only, who will be the new queen. Jareth so busy in his thoughts he didn't hear anyone come in. "Your highness." A goblins voice squeaked as he said that. Jareth turned his head to look at him. "Yes?" Jareth demanded in a bored voice. "The queen had a meeting with the dwarf, who works for you." The goblin replied, the king quickly put his feet on the ground and walked towards the goblin. "Where is Hogbrain now?" Jareth demanded in an angry voice. "He disappeared sire." The goblin said, as he backed away from the angry king. "FIND HIM!" Jareth yelled so loud the castle shook, the goblin ran out of the room scared looking for the dwarf. "I need to pay the queen a visit." Jareth said with a wicked smile and disappeared from his castle. In the Above ground. Sarah was looking around her childhood bedroom, everything was packed In bags in suit cases, she was surprised she got into a school like Harvard, she got good grades before she went to labyrinth, when she came back, they started to go downhill. Later that year her grades went back up again. She knows her time spent in the Labyrinth, the friends she met, will always be close and dear to heart. She even has a soft spot for the king, but her feelings for him, if there were any, are really too complicated to think about. Some days she looks at him as the villain others like a prince. When she came back from the Labyrinth is was harder to talk to her school friends, but easy to talk to her friends from the Labyrinth, she went on dates like her step-mother always wanted her too. She never found the right guy; they didn't fit the kind of guy she wanted. A guy to go on adventures with her, or give her one, kind of like the way the king did, and she liked him for that reason, sometimes he made her feel special but as quickly as those feelings came they vanished. At times she would go believing maybe she had some sort of feelings for him besides hating him. As she thought about him more as she got back, her feelings for him got more and more complicated that it almost frustrated her, that she never thought about him much after that. He would occasionally enter her mind but he never lingered for too long. Sarah sat on her bed looking around her bedroom, that she spent so much of her childhood in through her teenager years, she looked down on the right side of her bed seeing her cap and gown, she reached out to touch it and it felt like cool silk. She smiled she was excited to move forward in life, but also afraid not sure what was to come. She hoped for life full of excitement and romance, maybe that is the child in her or the woman or both. She was ready to put her gown on when In the distance of her room she heard someone call her name, she looked around her room, she looked over at the vanity and saw Hoggle in her mirror. She smiled really big and walked over to her vanity and sat down in the chair. "Hi Hoggle. Did you come to wish me luck?" Sarah asked happily. Hoggle smiled back. "Uh... no." He said looking sad that he forgot today was her important day she was graduating high school, she only kept telling him almost every day, how much she was looking forward to going out on her own. "Than what did you come for?" Sarah wondered. "I need to take you back to the Labyrinth." he replied. Sarah quickly stood up shaking her head no fast, she than looked back at Hoggle. "I am not going back to see the king," Sarah stopped than continued "no matter how bad he wants to see me, I won't go." She took a breath, but before Hoggle can talk she continued. "He can beg me all he wants. I am staying here." Sarah looked at Hoggle sadly. "I have a life to get to; I can't go because he needs me." She stopped took a breath never hearing Hoggle say her name she kept talking. "Damn him, I want to move on, forget I ever met him." Sarah was ready to say more when she heard Hoggle yell. "SARAH!" She stopped and looked at him calmly. "What?" "The rat didn't send me." Hoggle said as he looked at Sarah. She sat down back in the chair sadly. "Oh." She replied sadly. He looked at her and wondered why after her angry rant why she would be sad that Jareth didn't send him here to get her. "The queens sent me." Hoggle replied to her. Sarah quickly jumped out of her chair. "THE QUEEN?" she yelled he just watched her again. He knew when another rant was coming. "He's married?" Sarah said in disbelieving tone almost jealous sounding. "No." He replied softly. Sarah looked at him. "What did you say?" "No, he didn't get married. This is the queen of the Underground, not goblins, that wants a word with you." Sarah looked at him and started thinking. She felt that it was strange that a queen wanted to meet with her; she didn't know what this was about. She defeated the Labyrinth and Jareth almost three years ago, she thought maybe had he died and she wanted her to be the queen of goblins. She shook her head from that thought; she knew nothing would ever kill Jareth. Or she at least hoped nothing would. "Okay, Hoggle I'll go with you." Sarah smiled at him, Hoggle moved out of the way, so she could climb through. A couple of minutes after she did, her bedroom door opened her father stuck his head in looking for Sarah. "Sarah?" he called looking around. Where had his daughter gone? Jareth appeared in the queen's castle, he saw Krysta standing in front of the door. He proceeded to walk up to her quickly. She saw him approaching and stood in front of the doors blocking them. She faced him with her arms crossed over her chest. "I need to the see the queen." he demanded. She looked at him calmly. "I'm sorry she is a meeting" she replied. "With the new queen?" he asked with a raised brow. She looked at him in the eyes. "That is none of your business." She said standing her ground. Jareth moved in closer to her, she still looked him in the eyes. "Don't forget, I am the one that found you." He looked at her before continuing. "I could have just left you there to rot." He smiled cruelly. "You remind me of that all the time, Your Highness." She matched his cruel tone. "Let me see the queen?" He requested. "I can't do that my loyalty is to my queen, not you." She replied. Jareth walked away from her angry so angry she could feel it. She took a chance to ask because she was curious. "Why do you need to know who the queen is?" She asked looking at him, he looked back at her she continued speaking "What is so important who the new queen is?" Jareth smiled at her and walked up to her very close she could feel his breath on her face. "Because my dear," he looked at her face as he said it, knowing that she hates when he calls her that. He smiled at the annoyance look on her face. "I am going to seduce her into letting me be king." He smiled. "You actually think your charms are going to win her over." She replied with a smile on her face. "Yes." He continued to smile. She looked him up and down than smiled and looked him in the eyes "Wow, your ego must be bigger than your..." Jareth raised his hand to silence her "Don't forget I can have anyone I want." "Then why isn't Sarah here by your side?" She asked. She could see Jareth getting really angry he put both hands palms down on the door next to her head. "You're walking on dangerous ground, don't ever say that name to me again, I don't care who your queen is I will punish you for it." He said angrily. "What are you going to Jareth, put me in the bog?" She asked sweetly. She looked at him and continued as he just glared angry at her. "You have been saying that for centuries it's getting old." Jareth continued staring at her like he wanted to kill her. She reached behind her and grabbed her Sais if she needed them; she has no problem killing Jareth. All he has to do is make a move or the queen wishes it and it is done. An Elf male turned the corner and saw Krysta and King Jareth in what looked like a heated argument, which isn't surprising because Jareth could always get under Krysta's skin. The elf male has long blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail, a green poets shirt, over that a brown vest buttoned down, blue pants a little looser than Jareth's. In height he is a little taller than Jareth. Kyrista's height is in between both of them. The Elf male approached them. "Krysta is he bothering you?" The Elf male asked. Jareth and Krysta looked at him; the Goblin King looked annoyed at the interruption. "What's your name Parsley?" Jareth asked annoyed. The Elf male rolled his eyes and kept his anger down. "No sir, it's Farley." He replied. Jareth smiled wickedly. "What a nice feminine name." The king replied back. Krysta crossed her arms over chest and gave Jareth an annoyed look. "Oh, and your name is a manly name." She raised a brow at Jareth. The king sighed loudly and walked away. "Good luck seducing the new queen." Krysta called to him. Farley looked at Krysta concerned. "Are you okay? He didn't hurt you, did he?" She blushed bright red and avoided eye contact and replied in a low nervous voice.
