A/N: Once again thanks for the reviews. I really appreciate it and it
motivates me to keep going with this story. Any suggestions are welcome as
well. I will also try much harder to read a few times before submitting
because I notice lots of little mistakes.
Disclaimer: Once again I do not own any part of the Labyrinth or its inhabitants.
::::Sarah felt her heart racing yet she was confused as to why. Then she heard a familiar voice. "Ah my lady, it is time." Sarah turned and smiled at the fox. "My lady you are as beautiful as the sunrise."
"Thank you Sir Didimus." Sarah reached out her hand and allowed the fox to escort her out of the room.
Sarah's breath caught in her chest. She passed through an archway through a foyer and into another room. The room was lavishly decorated with flowers and ribbons. All the people in the room stood and murmured as she walked towards them. Her eyes were however only focused on one person in the room. He smiled as she walked toward him. His eyes held complete happiness; Sarah could not recall when Jareth had ever looked so happy.:::::
The warmth of the sun hit Sarah's face awakening her. It took her a moment to realize that she had only been dreaming, it had seemed so real. She stretched and adjusted. Then she gasped. All around her the labyrinth seemed to instantly be fixed. She could see far down both ends and not see any disrepair.
Sarah stood and walked around a bit, then walked into the divided opening just past the opening on the left were some hedges, Sarah sighed when she noticed they were still gray, weathered and dying.
"Sarah is everything alright?" Hoggle's voice called after her. She went back to her small group.
"No Hoggle, still so much needs to be done." She was still confused as to why so much had repaired instantly. Jareth walked up the path towards them.
"I found some fruit, I thought you might want to eat." He handed her an apple and some grapes. He then gave some to Hoggle and sat down and ate as well.
Sarah ate the apple then she asked, "You found this?"
"Yes I was quite pleased. It means the labyrinth is healing." He said relieved.
"But there are still parts that need to be healed. I do not understand why some things have healed and other things have not."
"I am not sure I can explain myself. Have you in anyway regained hope, or had a dream maybe. Remember the labyrinth not only thrives on our dreams, but helps us to realize what they are."
Sarah pondered she remembered dreaming but now she could not remember what the dream was.
"What is wrong?" Hoggle asked.
"I don't remember what I dreamt about." She said sadly.
"It's alright Sarah" Hoggle said reassuringly and held her hand.
"Jareth?" Sarah asked. Jareth looked up at her he allowed a small smile. "Why are you being so kind to me?"
Jareth chuckled. "I have no reason not to be Sarah. You have matured and changed since our last meeting. You always imagined me to be cold and cruel and sometimes I can be as most people can be. I needed your help Sarah, I am very sure I would have not received it if I was unkind to you."
Sarah smiled then realized yes she was the one to misjudge him. "Thank you Jareth for everything."
"It is I who should thank you. You have already started to heal the labyrinth again. We should start soon, even though the left passage is quicker it will still be another day before we reach the goblin city."
"Another day?" Sarah seemed surprise after all she was able to do the other path in much less time.
"Unfortunately, but we will be able to avoid the bog and the fiery forest."
Sarah nodded, "Alright then."
Jareth stood offered to help Sarah. Then the three of them walked to the left of the division of the path.
