AN- yes the next chapter! I don't know if I really like this one but.. Oh well im tired of re-working it.
The characters originally from the movie don't belong to me, any not from the movie are probably mine, like Lanceton.
Scattered Thoughts
Sarah sighed has she parkers the car. She had recently gotten her learners permit and was trying to learn how to drive. It was slightly difficult because she couldn't see over the front of the car, and using the mirrors confused her. She got out of the car and started to head for the house, he dad also getting out and following her.
"Don't worry sweetheart, you'll figure it out soon enough. It may take a while to get used to it but it'll happen."
"I know dad but I was horrible. I could barely stay on the right side of the road and it seemed like I was going to hit everything."
"Yes I know what that's like but you'll just have to wait and get used to it."
"But I don't want to wait. I wish I just knew how to drive, like naturally or something." Robert laughed at his daughter, she still didn't understand why everything didn't come easily to her. She wanted to get everything right on the first try and was frustrated when she didn't.
As they entered the house the smell of chicken greeted them, dinner must be ready. As if on que Karen turned the corner to meet them.
"Oh your back, just in time for dinner. Wash up and come and eat." Sarah and Karen still didn't get along well but they didn't fight as much either. They both tried to be somewhat civil with one another. Sarah washed her hand then joined everyone else at the table. the only good thing bout Karen, Sarah thought to herself, is at least she can cook a decent meal.
Dinner had been spent chatting about how the day went. Robert had finally gotten the raise he wanted, but would be traveling more. The down side was that meant Sarah would be stuck with Karen. After dinner Sarah went upstairs for a quick shower. It was finally the weekend and she wanted to kick back and relax. Entering her room Sarah found and handsome young boy sitting on her bed. Sarah was about to ask what he was doing but he cut her off.
"Hello my name is Lanceton. I come from the underground and I need you to come with me." he felt like a complete idiot. He could think of anything more intelligent to say?
"And just WHAT makes you think ill go back there?" Sarah glared at the stranger In her room. Lanceton had expected this, he seemed to zone out for a minute and their surroundings changed.
"Im sorry but you have no choice." Sarah was thrown off balance for a moment and leaned against a nearby wall to steady herself. She hadn't expected the sudden change. Lanceton spoke again before Sarah could utter and single word.
"Please take a seat." Sarah glared at him for a moment then took a seat in a blue chair by a fireplace. Lanceton told her Jareth's depression and waited for her to respond. She just looked dumbly at him before being filled with rage.
"So YOU want ME to help YOUR king?! Are you crazy? Why on earth would I EVER *WANT* to help HIM?!" Sarah stormed around the room. What was this guy thinking? To just show up at her house, kidnap her then expect her to help Jareth, this guy must be nuts!
"I understand you don't exactly like him but please at least think about it." Lanceton left the room locking to door behind him. He would get in so much trouble when the king found out he brought her here.
Inside her room Sarah paced around muttering profanities under her breath. She had no idea what to do, help so the servants and subjects didn't have to deal with Jareth's temper or leave and forget about it? well, she thought, its not my problem. Ill just tell Lanceton in the morning to find someone else. Satisfied with her decision she climbed into the large bed. She wished she could just leave but she knew the door was locked. Sarah had had a rough night and needed some sleep so she let her anger subside for the moment and she cuddled down in the bed. She could do more yelling and screaming in the morning, now was time to rest. Sarah fell asleep a few short seconds after her head hit the pillow.
that's that, im off for a break⦠*snore*
