"All right, whose idea was it?"

Sarah stared down the three blondes standing in front of her. All three refused to meet her gaze, their eyes on the floor. The goblins and chickens had all been cleared out of the throne room, thrown out by a fuming Sarah. Her husband finally met her furious stare, an innocent look on his face. Sarah didn't buy it for a minute.

"Why, precious, whatever are you talking about? It was merely an accident," Jareth said so seriously Sarah would have believed him if he hadn't been smirking so deviously.

"Like hell it was an accident. Which one of you shoved the Queen of Summer?"

"Mom, don't you think you're over exaggerating a bit? I mean, Dad did catch her before she fell in," Breena stepped forward, casting a co-conspirator glance at her father. Elrond nodded solemnly beside her, a familiar smirk on his face. Sarah gave her two 8 year-olds a hard look.

"No, I'm not over exaggerating. It is not over exaggerating when the Queen of Summer is almost shoved into the BOG OF ETERNAL STENCH!"

"The look of horror on her face was priceless," Elrond snickered, his blue and green eyes shining with amusement. Breena giggled as well. It should have been no surprise to Sarah that they would try something like this. The twins hated the Queen of Summer and made that quite clear whenever the pompous ruler decided to visit.

"Not funny, Elrond," she snapped at the 8 year-old, "It's obvious the three of you are guilty."

All three blondes ducked their heads, wearing matching amused smirks. She wondered how three people could be so alike, both in physical and personality traits. Her children had almost inherited nothing from her, aside from the one green eye. Both had platinum blonde hair, though Elrond kept his short while Breena's reached her waist. The two were identical in appearance, their childish angel-like faces hiding mischievous pranksters. She was sure that if they were to live up in the Aboveworld, they could become child actors. They had their father's flair for the extravagant, his magical abilities (including turning into fluffy, innocent-looking owls), his obsession for glitter and kicking goblins, and his superior smirk. Though not as egotistical as their father, they knew they were important and Sarah oftentimes had to reprimand them when they flaunted it. They had grown up in the Labyrinth and knew every nook and cranny of the place. Both were very intelligent and creative. And while the two children were the same in their physical appearance, there were slight differences in their personalities. Elrond was more quiet and thoughtful, opting to prank people behind the scenes and remain in secret. Breena was more like herself, fiery and quick to anger. Both loved their parents to death. They were sweet children but only to those whom they wished to be sweet to. And the Queen of Summer was not one of them.

"Now, would any of you care to tell me why Queen Roseria came close to stinking for the rest of her immortal life? I know you don't like her but that's no reason to throw her into the bog," Sarah held gazes with each of the three, trying to work out what they were hiding from her.

"Actually, that'd be a totally valid reason, mom," Breena smirked, "Dad does it all the time."

"Guys," Sarah growled, her gaze hardening, "Why?"

Jareth glanced sharply at his two children, giving an almost imperceptible shake of the head. The twins looked at one another and nodded. Jareth sighed, knowing he'd just been over-voted.

"She was flirting with Dad," Elrond crossed his small arms, his expression thunderous, "Even after he told commanded her to stop."

"Yep, so we pushed her," Breena giggled, giving her brother a high-five. Elrond smirked, looking immensely proud of himself. Jareth winced, noticing Sarah's enraged expression. Though Jareth knew her anger was now not directed at them, it was still a frightening sight.

"Is that so? She was flirting with your dad…Well, you should have let her fall in then," Sarah looked livid, her eyes flashing with fury. Her children looked delighted with the idea, already plotting ways to get the Queen of their neighboring kingdom to fall into the stinky bog. And this time to actually let her fall. It wouldn't be necessarily hard for the two since they knew the paths of the Labyrinth like the backs of their hands.

"Now, now, precious, let's calm down shall we?"

Jareth wrapped his arms around his wife, bringing her flush against him. She sent him a warning glance which he promptly ignored and began trailing soft kisses up her neck, ignoring her weak protests. Sarah could feel her anger melting away with each kiss pressed against her neck.

"Jareth, Jareth, JARETH…The kids are in the room," she held back a moan as he nibbled on her ear and she could feel him smirking against her neck. She could hear the twins snickering.

"Hmm…Then perhaps we should go somewhere more private," his voice had dropped into a husky whisper that sent jolting tingles down her spine and a heated flush to her cheeks. Even after all this time, he still managed to throw her off-balance.

"But what about the children?"

"Hey, guys!"

Jareth's smirk widened as he inclined his head in greeting to the newcomer. Sarah would have rolled her eyes, had she been coherent enough, at how convenient the situation had turned out. As it was, she could only manage a breathless hello to her younger teenage brother. Toby raised an eyebrow at Sarah, giving Jareth a mischievous smile.

"Geez, Jareth, what did you do to her?"

"Uncle Toby!"

Their two children threw themselves onto the blonde teenager, knocking him down on the floor. Sarah watched fondly as the three came up, breathless with laughter. She was ecstatic when Jareth had told her that Toby could visit them in the Underground. Her younger brother had been a big part of her children's lives. They absolutely adored the teen. Whenever Toby came to visit or they went to the Aboveworld to visit her parents, the three would be nigh inseparable. She was snapped out of her musings when she felt Jareth's lips on her neck once again, his sharp teeth grazing over the delicate skin.

"You're impossible," she breathed out, trying to sound stern but failing miserably. He just smirked in response before turning towards the three still laughing uncontrollably on the floor.

"Tobias, would you mind watching Elrond and Breena?"

Toby rolled his eyes but grinned, "Sure thing, Jareth. I'll make sure they keep out of trouble."

"Many thanks," he winked, before vanishing in a cloud of glitter, taking Sarah along with him. Elrond and Breena shook the glitter out of their hair before looking up at their smiling uncle.

"So, what's the plan for today?"

"We were first thinking of helping Hoggle shoot down some fairies," Elrond began.

"Then, Ludo was going to teach us how to sing," Breena continued. Toby held up his hands, looking at both strangely.

"Ludo's going to teach you to SING?"

"Well, he's going to teach us to summon rocks and make them smash things at the sound of our screams," Elrond explained, a devious smirk playing on his lips.

"And then, we're planning on throwing a few of the Fiery's heads for fun," Breena mused, her eyes twinkling, "Of course, that's only after we have tea at the blue worm's place. Not to mention that Mom gave us the okay to push Queen Snob into the Bog so we have to think up of an elaborate plan on how to accomplish that…though it shouldn't be too hard."

"Sounds like a full day," Toby grinned, "We'd better get started. It's already past noon and we need to get you two in bed before the moon comes up."

The twins nodded eagerly, each taking hold of one of their uncle's hands. With cheerful steps, the trio made their way out into the Labyrinth, their confrontation that morning long forgotten.

Back in the castle, Jareth had pinned Sarah to the bed, smiling down at her almost predatorily. Sarah could already feel the heat inside of her spike into an inferno, scorching her insides. She smiled, running her hands up his pale bare chest.

"My, My, you're awfully excited today, aren't you?"

"I'm always excited when it comes to you, precious," he purred in her ear, his hands slowly roaming down her sides. She squirmed under his touch, gasping at the electricity that shot down her body at the sensual touch.

"How about a little less talking and a bit more seducing?"

A feral smile stole over his face as he bent down until his mouth was at her ear and there was no more space between their bodies.

"Your wish is my command…"
