this is just after the party that took place in sarahs bedroom right at the end of the film. this is how i think the story would continue....
Sarah woke from the middle of the night. It had been several hours since she returned from the labyrinth and her friends had come to revisit her. They had said that they could not stay long and could only see her for a few hours at a time. When everyone had left she got undressed and climbed into bed. There she fell instantly asleep and started dreaming. She was walking along the long path at the start of the labyrinth but this time she could see Jareth at the end of it. Her feet started to run and she did not know why but her speed was increasing. She carried on running for what felt like hours and never taking her eyes off Jareth who stood there with a faint smile on his face looking at her with his mismatched eyes. She started to call for him
'Jareth, why have you brought me back '
He replied simply with
'come back to labyrinth, come back to me'
She awoke suddenly and nearly fell out of bed. She looked at the time and realised that she was late and needed to get ready for school. She stumbled around her room getting changed and packing her bag. She was just about to leave the room when she noticed that in her dressing table mirror she saw a man stood on the other side of her bed looking directly at her. He stood tall looking at her through the silver backed glass. He repeated the words that she had just heard in her dream that give her a sense of déjà vu
'Come back to labyrinth, come back to me'
She whispered the words
'I can't ... I have to stay here ... they would never let me go even if I wanted'
With those words she ran out the room and shut the door behind her. She stood with her back against the door for a while and thought about what had just happened. Did she want to stay with her family or did she actually want to go back. Toby interrupted her train of thought as he started to cry and her father was coming up the stairs to check on him. They smiled and wished each other morning while passing on the stairs. Sarah continued to the kitchen where she found herself suddenly not hungry. She decided it would be best if she forced herself to eat something so after fixing herself a bowl of cereal she went into the living room to watch TV. She picked up the remote and was about to switch on the TV when she noticed Jareth looking at her once again. She tried to switch the channel but the TV didn't appear to be on just his face was appearing on the screen. She leaned closer to the TV and whispered for him to get off the screen. His face changed into a smile that reminded her of the first time she saw him in her parents' bedroom.
'You don't want to stay here i can tell this. ive watched you and your family for months. You don't agree with your father. You hate your stepmother Toby is the only thing holding you back and he's safe. Here, he doesn't need you. I need you. Come to the labyrinth away from all this fake life. Come home. Come home to me as your eternal lover and husband.'
She couldn't speak she just looked at the TV. She really wanted to leave. Her dream last night and the loneliness she felt without everyone she had met the day before made her want to go back so much.
'Will they know I have gone?' Sarah asked the television
'Not if you don't want them to. I can make them forgot you were even alive if you wanted me to. Of course they will forget all their memories with you – your father and stepmother that are. I can't erase the child's memory.'
Sarah thought about this. She knew that she would successfully go and live how she wanted and not feel guilty about having her family worry about her. But wait... what about Toby.
'Will he remember me all that happened ... my face ... my name ... the fact I'm his sister?'
'He will just think of you as a distant memory just his normal ability to remember may let him remember parts of you but I can't say.'
Sarah stopped and looked around the room. She could hear her brother crying upstairs and her father trying to calm him. She could also hear the faint sound of her stepmother complaining about why Sarah wasn't up there sorting Toby out while they slept. This finalised the decision for Sarah. She couldn't take any more of this unloving place.
'Take me. Take me back to where you are, hold me in your arms take me away to your kingdom past the goblin city.'
The face on the screen moved to a more upright position as he was anticipating the event that was about to happen.
'I wish....'
Sarah spoke louder
'I wish....'
She closed her eyes and said
'I wish the globins would come and take me to the goblin king... Right now!'
