Chapter 11: The Tale of the Goblin Kingdom

Elsa

I slowly open my eyes to see I'm in a junk yard. I look around feeling trash under my hands and my feet. I move around trying to get up, where was I? "Elsa?" I hear a dark biter voice. I turn and smile a little, "Grunt, what are you doing here? Where is here?" I ask as he gives him his small hair covered hand and helps me up. "You're in the junk yard, what are you doing here?" He asks and I look around, it was so dark here.... Why was it dark? "I... I don't know, I was with Jack and he gave me this ring..." I say as Grunt grabs my hand and looks at the ring. He quickly slips it off and throws it. "Hey! I really like that ring!" I yell as Grunt looks at me with a glare.

"That ring had black magic on it, mostly form the King trying to stop you that explain why you're here." He says. I was about to ask what he was talking about when I heard a noise behind me. I turn to see different kind of goblins with tons of junk on their backs. "What are those?" I ask and point to one of them. Grunt looks, "That would have been you if you bite into a peach, but you didn't so now you're just a confused girl who was almost seduced and kept asleep in a dream for infinity." Grunt says and well grunts after. I give him a dark look but then sigh, he was right, I was tricked, Jack tricked.

"Jack... Jack gave me that ring; I guess the King gave it to me. I just remember being home again, and Jack and I were dating and it was kind of nice." I say and rub my arm. "Jack is in-between his light and dark side, they are fighting within him. But it seems like since you've been here; his light side is taking more control." Grunt says as he takes my hand again and helps me down the pile of trash. "How do you know that?" I ask as we finally reach the bottom. I start to dust off my jeans, I feel so gross now, I just want to get Anna and get out of here.

I watch as Grunt starts to rub his neck, "Well... I... I had one of my fairies follow you..." I raised an eyebrow, "Like one of the evil things that bite me?" He nods, "Yeah... I got worried when you stepped in the labyrinth so I sent one to watch you. The fairy has been keeping track of you and Jack, and I've notices his been changing... That's how I knew you were here." He says with a look of worry on his face. "You really kept track of me?" I ask as we start to finally walk out of this hell hole, how far away was I to Anna now?

"Well... yeah, I mean no one has given me a gift before and well... I just wanted to protect you." He says not looking at me. "Well... Thank you. I mean, if you didn't I would have been screwed." I say and look around, to see more of the weird trash goblins. "Grunt, you told me I would become one of those... goblins if I ate a peach, what did you mean?" I ask as I follow Grunt through trash and dirt. I could tell on his face, he was scared to tell me and he was upset. "Not all of these goblins in this land were born here. Some were made."

I didn't understand what he was talking about, "What do you mean they were made?" I ask. He sighs, "A long time ago, before Blaise became ruler, we only had a few goblins here and everything was fine and peaceful, but when our King at the time... I don't even remember his name anymore had Jack and Blaise... it just went to shit. The king died and since Blaise was the oldest, he took over. He started to mess with black magic and became immortal so he could rule forever.

"Blaise wanted more followers, so he would wait until someone would wish for their family or friends or really anyone to disappear and Blaise would take them, nine hours later, they become goblins and forget about their old home." "And the trash goblins? Are they born or created?" I ask. I could see some tears form in his brown eyes, "Created..." He looked over at me and points at it. I look to see a goblin with long black hair with different toys on her back, about ten bears, a ballerina and some other stuff. "You see that goblin over there?" He asks. I nod, "What about her?" I ask. "Her name is Sarah, she had to babysit her little brother one night and when he wouldn't stop crying, she wished that the Goblin King would take him, and he did.
