Covering some ground

These events happened after the coming out ball and before Sierra met Jeremy.
More or less I'm doing background control.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The suns rays glowed on her face causing her to stir from her sleep.Before opening her eyes she nestled under the covers and stretched in the warmth and comfort of her bed.

"Is miss awake" came a soft female goblin named Abera who was instrusted to help her.

Smilling and sitting up she yawned slightly "Yes it seems the new day has arrived"she commented.

"Indeed it has my lady "she said while she started the fire."Miss can sleep in after all you must be tired from the ball last night" the fire started and she left the room momentarily.

The ball Sierra thought sitting back amongst her pillows.She remembered how can one forget the night where you displayed your heart and soul.The only comforting part was that no one except that person knew.A smile graced her lips as she remembered Jareth's words,he had been pleased which made her more than happy.

Crossing her legs she sat up.She didn't regret it she never would but know he held her heart,and it was up to him how much heartbreak it would suffer.Trust she had so much trust in him regardless .Sighing she flopped back on the pillows.

Chuckling at the display Abera started laying out Sierra's clothes.
"Love is a strange thing is it not my lady especially when it comes to our king"she questioned

Surprised sierra sat up instantly "How did yo...."she stopped and looked down a blush evident on her face.

The goblin smiled kindly." I am older than most and can see with these eyes.Last night among almost all of the eligle men in the underground only one truly held my ladys intention"

If it were possible her blush deepened."I must seem like a fool to you"she gave the goblin a week smile.
"No not in the least you were brave and couragous to tell the truth about how your heart feels.Its not many who could confess there love.Rare it is "she said softly"Now breakfast is ready so get to it "she said leaving her to change.


Chuckling Sierra undressed she put on a pair of skinny jeans and a poet shirt and some shoes after all she wasn't planning on staying in the castle today.While putting her hair in a pony tail she looked at the medallion the labyrinth gave her in the mirror.
It made her proud to be apart of the Goblin Kingdom she finally felt like she belonged.Travelling to the next room she saw the that one of the other goblin assistants were taking care of Philip.Seeing that she was not needed she decided to skip breakfast and head into the goblin city.A storm had come in the night and some of the goblin houses had been destroyed and damaged.

Making her way quietly out of the castle she met up with Ludo,Hoggle,Sir Didymus and Ambrosias they all were going to help out she just hoped Jareth wouldn't mind her doing this but why should she.

As they came closer she could see that the damage wasn't that bad some of the goblins shrinked back from Ludo and other ran up to her ."Lady has come to help"a handful of them said at various times while jumping."Of course my friends "she replied Hoggle muttered something under his breath before going to collect some tools.Clearing the useless debris away Sierra began to admire her surroundings but was quickly brought back to the task at hand when a chicken surprisingly squaked and flapped in front of her.


Many times Sir Didymus appealed for her to instruct and not be subjected to manuel labor, being the valent knight that he didn't think ladies should such things.
At his last attempt she finally spoke."I will do my part in this kingdom and help at all costs regardless of my gender"her voice was gentle yet firm and with that the fox knight ceased his attempts.

Hours passed and the work proggress soon everything was back in order at least for a goblin city that was.Saying goodbye to her friends who decided to stay in the goblin she started her walk back to the castle.
The walk was peaceful as the birds started singing and a slight breeze drifted in the air.Walking past the gardens she thought So peacefu,,,,,,,,,
"Those are mine they came from my hen.
They were on my land"
Stopping short when she heard the two squabbling goblins she made her way over to them.
"The king will sort this out one of them huffed"and started walking torwards the throne room.

"Well what do we have here"she said confronting the two goblins,she refrained from putting her hand in front of her nose to keep what smelled like rotting eggs from assulting her nose.She already gathered that these two were on there way to Jareth's court which he had everyday to solve the problems in his kingdom.

"This hen is mine and laid some eggs on his land"he said gestering to the other goblin" and he thinks they should be his"The other goblin nodded in aggreement "We was on the way to see the king we was but maybe you could help us since you are lady of the labyrinth and you might not bog like the king might"the goblin said smilling.

Sierra kept her expression neautral although she was dieing of laughter on the inside only goblins would bring rotten eggs to court but then again most of his subjects were goblins.She held a new respect for him his impecable patience was somthing she admired.She froze slightly when she was called lady of the labyrinth but in a sense the words were true enough.Deciding that she could help Jareth as well and not have him in a foul mood for goblins making his room smell like rotting eggs seemed to be a win for everyone.

Taking in the goblins story she came to a conclusion."Give half the eggs to him even though it was your bird it was still on his property"her voice held authority as if she was reprimanding a toddler.
The goblins smilled and hugged her legs "Thank you"they both said.

The two goblins made there way out of the garden,but before they could one said "Lady will make a great Queen"


Sierra put her hands to her forehead and chuckled slightly,imagining what Jareth's face would have looked like .Noticing her shirt was dirty she made her way back into her room.Clossing the door she noticed that Abera was not there.Shrugging she strutted into the bathroom and began running herself a bath.Once the tub was filled she stripped and eased herself into the water.

Just as she was beginning to relax the labyrinth reached into her mind.
{This conversation is held in Sierra"s mind the labyrinth chooses to speak to others this way}

"You seem happy"the labyrinth noted
"I am"she thought simply
"You have done well I was right about you" th labyrinth purred.
"About what exacltly "She asked
"Well I judged your character or rather your heart before changing you.Your heart is pure your selfless and in the rare times that you are selfish its not for material or power gain.Your quite stubborn but loyal and steadfast to your friends and the ones you love.You would give your life for those you love."the words were a statement.
"I can"t be that much"she argued
"That and more"the labyrith said
"what is it that you wanted"she asked knowing that it wanted something.
"Just to say you did really well last night at the ball that is all"the connection severed and Sierra was once again alone.
