Chapter 6


Author's Note :
Ok, so that everybody understands my little underground world:
1. Not everybody can wish somebody away. There has to be magic involved. For instance, Jareth was in love with Sarah and gave her the power (as said in the movie) and Harry is a wizard (and although his cousin isn't, is Harry's destiny being messed around, so, it's allowed).
2. If you wish someone away you have one chance to solve the labyrinth. You have 13 hours to get to the castle and get the person back or the person belongs to the underworld.
3. The person you wish away must "belong" to you. You have to be in charge of this person even if its just temporally (Petunia most likely told Dudley something like "watch him while I"¦-whatever it was-" and that put Dudley in charge of Harry and with the power to wish him away).
4. A child may wish someone away but she has 7 years to make up her mind about getting the person back and you are only a child until you are 13. Harry and his cousin are six, therefore Dudley has until he is 13 to go and get Harry.
5. When you became part of the underworld you became fae, your original traits define what you will became.
6. The underworld is pretty much stable. Almost no changes at all (a few unimportant births, deaths, marriages or other minor changes) unless a fairy tale is born. The new legend will change whatever it needs to make room for itself, in this case major changes may occur.

Harry woke up at sun rise and almost jumped out of bed. He was going to the human realm today. The place where he and his mom were born. They told him he was to attend a school with other children his age and he was nervous. He could remember going to school before he came to the underworld and the other children were not nice to him.

"Well, if they decide to play with me, I'll just have to play with them too he though with a smile. There was no way that Prince Harry, heir of King Jareth, would allow anyone to walk all over him. Let a goblin (or most of the fae for that matter) do that and you are in for some serious pranks and a lot of pain.

"Good morning, father" said Harry entering the balcony where his mother liked to have breakfast.

"Ah! Harry. Good morning, son. Excited about our little trip?" greeted Jareth setting aside his papers and looking at his son, a miniature Jareth with black raven hair standing up in all directions, black trousers and boots and a golden silk poets shirt.

"He looks more fae each day Jareth though with pride.

Harry was now 11. Today was in fact his birthday and this little trip was being treated was a birthday gift to ease his mind about going the whole affair. It had been Sarah's idea and it seemed to be working, Harry was warming up to the idea of going to school. Either that or the little chat he secretly had with Harry about how fun it would be to defend himself from the bullies... Sarah would not approve of that even if the said bullies were wizards and witches and not common humans. Oh, well. As long as she didn't know it would be ok.

"Father, do you think we'll meet a lot of humans?"

"Yes, Harry, but I think they will all be wizards, not many plain humans at Diagon Alley"

"Oh! Ok" said Harry drinking his juice "How are we going to get there?"

"We will go through the bank. Griphook will send us a cart in a few minutes and someone from school will be waiting for us at the bank"

"Good morning" said Sarah. Harry looked at his mother and saw that she was wearing what she called `normal human clothes`. It was a grey suit with a white silk shirt underneath. Her hair was tied in a bun and she had small diamond earrings on her ears and a short pearl necklace.

"Harry, dear, you need to get change. We are going shopping in the non magical part of London after we shop for you school"

"but, mom, I don't have human clothes anymore, remember. Hylte dropped mine at the bog of eternal stench"

"Oh! That's right. Blasted goblin and her crazy ideas. Well, it's not a big problem, darling. We will just get you new ones. You are growing very fast, anyway, those clothes would probably not fit you even if they could still be brought in the castle"

"Well" said Jareth getting up and kissing Sarah's face "I, madam, am ready and at your disposal"

"So am I, mother" said Harry imitating Jareth´s action.

"Well, off we go them" said Sarah taking Jareth´s arm. Harry followed them to the dungeons of the castle, where in one of the hallways a goblin was guarding a door. He opened the door and bowed to the royal family as they walked in.

Inside it looked like an old mine with many rail tracks going at all directions. It was the connection room between all the banks at all the realms, his father had explained to him long ago. From there they could get to every branch of Gringotts anywhere.

The small cart arrived almost immediately, they got in and the cart started to move through the tunnels taking them to the Gringotts at Diagon Alley.
