"I see a little silhouette of a man, Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango. Thunderbolts and lightning very very frightening me. Galileo, Galileo. Galileo, Galileo. Galileo Figaro. Magnificoooooo"

They all sung in unison while driving in the car. Sarah looked over to Toby who was trying to say the words he thought they sounded like but was getting them completely wrong. Sarah looked at him and smiled, he was only 7 so he could be forgiven for getting one of the worlds most popular song lyrics wrong. Especially with how tongue twisting they were.

Karen and Robert laughed as Robert drove, they'd had a wonderful family night out to dinner and were on their way back home. Robert glanced back at his children "I hope you guys are looking forward to tomorrow, we have a big day planned" he smiled back at Sarah and Toby, "What are we doing Dad?" asked Toby excitedly, Robert turned back to look at Toby "You'll have to wait…" before he could finish his sentence Karen screamed "ROBERT!".

It was too late, a drunk motorcyclist was riding down the wrong side of the road, Robert swerved to miss hitting him. He swerved so tightly the car hit the curb and barrel rolled 3 times before hitting a tree, landing upside down. Sarah felt pain in her head as she woke up from the wreck.

She went to feel her head and it felt wet, she looked at her hand and there was blood. As she lifted her head up she felt the blood drip down her face. She looked over to Toby who was unconscious, "TOBY" she called, he had blood coming from his ears and nose. She tried to move to get to him but her leg hurt really bad and was trapped, she cried out in pain.

She called out again "DAD! KAREN!" she was met with silence. She heard sirens in the distance before she passed out.

"And I always wake up after I pass out" Sarah explained to her therapist, wiping tears from her face. "Why do you think you wake up at that specific point every time you have that dream?" asked her therapist Sharon, handing her a tissue.

"Thanks. I don't know, I would have thought it would be at the point of the wreck" Sarah surmised, "Not necessarily" said Sharon, "It might be that there was something poignant that happened at the moment you passed out, what was the next thing you remember?".

"I woke up at the sound of the firemen calling to me, helping me cut me out of the car" said Sarah, "Keep going" Sharon advised, "The medics were standing by so they could check me over, then put me in the back of the ambulance, examined my head and leg and the police asked me questions about what I paramedics couldn't understand how I had survived such an awful accident, and told me how lucky I was to be alive. After a few moments one of the cops came over to inform me about my family before taking me off to hospital" explained Sarah.

"When the policeman told you that your family were dead, what was your reaction?" asked Sharon, "I was in shock. Thought I might be dreaming and that I was going to wake up any minute" Sarah replied, "And when you realised you weren't dreaming?" Sharon pushed, tears fell from Sarah's eyes again "I was devastated. I had no other family. I was 22 but I wasn't ready to have to take care of myself yet." Sarah wiped her eyes again.

"I don't think anybodies really ready for when the time comes to have to look after themselves Sarah, but you just do, and I think you're doing a mighty fine job" Sharon patted Sarah's knee in comfort, "I'm trying" Sarah sniffed.

Sharon looked at the clock on the wall, "Well, I'm afraid our time is up." Sharon informed her client.

When Sarah arrived back home, she fixed herself a salad with some boiled chicken breast for dinner, she hated her therapy sessions. They always made her feel like crap. Having to drudge up the loss of her family. Even though it was 3 years prior, she felt like it was yesterday. Not a day went by where she didn't think of her brother, Dad or stepmother.

She had no other family. Her birth mother had abandoned her, she didn't know where she was, or if she was even alive. She had no grandparents, no cousins, aunties or uncles. She was all by herself.

She still lived in the house, when the accident had happened the mortgage had automatically been paid off, Sarah was already working at that point so could afford the bills on her wage, but had been on benefits for a while after because her femur had broken so she had been off work, which took months to repair and lots of painful physiotherapy sessions to even begin to feel better. Even now, she still walked with a slight limp.

As she sat eating her dinner at the kitchen counter, she began to think about her session, and previous sessions with her therapist, particularly, she thought about a hypnosis session they had done where the therapist had stumbled upon a memory of Sarah's that Sharon couldn't altogether understand or explain.

"Where are you?"

"The Labyrinth"

"What's the Labyrinth?"

"It's a place where Jareth brings wished away children"

"Who's Jareth?"

"The Goblin King"

"Why are you there?"

"He's taken Toby"

"Why?"

"Because I wished him away when he wouldn't stop crying"

Sarah was aware of what she was saying while she was under, but couldn't control it.

She hadn't told anybody, and her therapist didn't know how to handle it, so had prescribed her antidepressants and anti anxiety medication in the hope it might help.

Sarah had felt embarrassed revealing her most secret memory, she knew no one would believe her, and she had a hard time explaining it to Sharon. She thought Sharon probably thought her crazy, but she had never given Sharon concern that anything drastic needed to be done.

Sarah didn't feel like she belonged in this world, and often wished she had stayed at the Labyrinth, if she had, Toby would still be alive, and that thought made her feel guilty.

Sarah was snapped out of her thoughts about therapy by the phone ringing.

"Hello?" she asked.

"Hi Sarah, it's me. Listen, Louise and I are going bowling tomorrow night, we've met these really cute guys, Wayne and Jake, and they have friends. You wanna come?".

It was Sarah's work colleague Cate, she loved to go out and party, which Sarah wasn't keen on, she would rather stay at home with a good book or a movie, unless it was for a special occasion like a birthday.

"Nah, I'm not really…" Sarah started but Cate interrupted "Oh come on Sar! You never want to do anything fun! Please! I told them you'd come meet their friend Kevin".

Sarah sighed down the phone, she really wasn't in the mood, but maybe a fun night out bowling with friends would do her some good, "Alright, I'll come" she caved "YES!" Cate hissed down the phone excitedly. Sorting out the details, before letting Sarah get back to finishing her dinner.
