Violet's point of view:

I jogged down the hill and to the wall of the Labyrinth before I saw some fairies fly over to me, "Fucking bite me and I will crush every bone in your body, got it?" I threatened angrily - mostly because I realized Hoggle wasn't here.

They stopped and quickly zipped away and I nodded, "Good" I soon found the opening the of the maze and walked in, "Right we go" I sang and skipped, the timer on my watch was still going so I can see how long i've been out this for.

Why did he give me only Eleven hours? What a arse, I wonder what changed him - I stopped and looked around, the walls were crumbling, but taller and more dark and 'scary' looking.

I guess he changed... maybe because of Sarah - or was that just a character that was made up to warn people - that's why they made a movie!

I smacked my forehead and continued on my way, my hand running along the wall, waiting, hopefully, the worm to say ''Ello'.

I found a gap on my right and stopped, "Hello?" I called out, hoping to hear the British worm. I ignored the little plant with eyes on my right and waited, biting my lip.

"'Ello!" I gasped and turned to see a blue little worm with an orange scarf on.

"I'm Violet, how do you do?" I asked hurriedly - since I do have a limited time and all.

"I'm good, would you like to pop in for a cup of tea? We just put it on the stove-"

"Oh no thank you, maybe another time? But out of curiosity, which way of these two go to the Goblin King's castle?"

"The left, but you better head right" he says.

"Thank you, i'll try to come back for some tea, okay?"

I smiled before I darted left, "Wait, that's the wrong way!" I hear the worm shrill as I continued down the maze, skipping as I kept my hand on the wall, waiting for any twists or unexpecting turns.

I came to one and went through that, and another... and another... and another...

Well, this is boring. I stopped for a second before face palming,  I always knew I what to do if I ever 'magically' got into this blasted place. My back hit the wall and I ran across the ground and then up the wall, I grabbed onto the top and hung there for a second before I slowly pulled myself up.

Balancing I stood up and looked around, "I spy with my little eye, a Goblin King's Castle" I mused before I walked along the top of the wall with my arms out for balance, humming as I easily started to make my way there.

"That's cheating!" I heard a gasp near me and I paused, looking around.

"Should we so somethin'? King say to do somethin' to-"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" I heard some voices chant quietly - i'm guessing Goblins. Oh I knew the King wouldn't make this easy for me.

I quickly hurried along the wall, moving closer to the Castle, until I felt the wall crumble underneath me, I couldn't help but let out a surprised squeal as I fell from the top of the wall and then down a whole in the ground.

I hear laughter fro above me as I slid down the dark tunnel, still in shock... the Goblin King, oh it is so on.

The Goblin King's point of view: 

I glared into the crystal ball, the Goblins stared from all around me, "She's in the Cormen!" the Goblins snickered.

"Shut it, she isn't supposed to get this far  - in an hour nonetheless" I seethed, gripping the ball in my gloved hand and made it dissappear into dust before standing up and walking over to the new child.
