I wish…
Disclaimer:
I suppose that I am supposed to say that I don't own anything or
anyone within the Labyrinth. However, I may introduce a few of my own
characters.
Sarah
is sick of live Aboveground, but she thinks that her time in the
Labyrinth is unreal. That is until she wishes herself away to the
Underworld where everything seems possible and nothing is what it
seems…
Chapter 1 – Take Me Away.
It was four months later and Sarah was almost convinced that the Labyrinth didn't exist as whenever she called for her friends, they did not appear as they promised. Sarah had changed with the events of the Underworld and of the past four months. Her physical appearance was not much different except, the maturity of her porcelain facial features had grown. Her long, black hair hung in defined curls to her shoulder blade. Sarah now wore clothes that were more fitting to her figure and she had a job in order to pay for her essential necessities.
A few weeks after Sarah had saved Toby from the Goblin King and had left the Labyrinth, she had realised that she had made a huge mistake; she should have taken her dreams when she had the chance.
But it's not real. She thought.
The realisation of her mistake occurred when she woke up on her sixteenth birthday to find a deserted house; her Dad (Robert), Karen and Toby were gone, leaving no evidence that they ever existed in this house. Sarah knew that Robert had changed since Karen entered his life but she thought nothing of it. She guessed that this just proved her point and what made it hard for Sarah was that Toby wasn't even old enough to remember, in the future, that he ever had a sister.
Now three months after the cruel even of this, she found that she no longer spend anymore times in this house; in this world; Aboveground. It was worth a try.
"I wish the Goblin King would come and take me away." She said pausing, knowing that there was no turning back. 'What's said is said' she remembered what Jareth had said those months ago. "Right now," she whispered. Nothing happened.
"I knew it wasn't real." Sarah said into the silence of the room,
"So tell me, how long do you think one can deny their longing?"
This made her lift he head out of her wet pillow.
"Jareth…" she whispered as she saw a man with a blonde mane and two mismatching eyes.
"Why Sarah, you've been crying." He said as he saw her stained red eyes and began to walk towards her, slightly concerned about his beloved.
"Jareth, you are here. I didn't think you would come…I thought you weren't…" The tears rolled down her rosy cheeks.
"Shhh… Sarah I'm here now." He said, wanting so much to hold her in his embrace but to his surprise, Sarah had already taken liberty in throwing her arms around him.
"Jareth… I made a mistake."
"What was that?" He asked referring to her mistake.
"I should have taken you up on the offer of my dreams when I have the chance. Jareth…take me away from this awful place, I can't stand it any longer."
"I remember the last time you said that Sarah, right before you wished your brother away." He stated plainly but he could tell by the sorrow in her eyes that she needed to get away. He nodded as she looked up into his eyes.
"I wish I could take you away Sarah, but I am no longer Goblin King, your defeat made me lose my position. I am very sorry but the new Goblin King must take you know they are the rules." He shimmered to the Underground, leaving her in the house, waiting to the new Goblin King.
Author's note: I know, I know I am not very good at this…but it's my first attempt so…sorry.
