Deception and a New beginning

"WHAT!" her father roared in rage.

Sarah had to cover her ears not to get the worst of it but that still didn't help with the after effects that caused a defining ring in her ears. Next to her Skyler and her mother seamed unaffected by the sudden outburst as if they were use to it. Her mother just rolled her eyes and stood her ground as her father roared towards the ceiling.

"NO MATTER WHAT WE DID THE FUCKEN GOBLIN KING GOT HIS HANDS ON MY DAUGHTER AND FELL FOR HER! FUCKEN GREAT! HE COULDN'T LEAVE MY FAMILY ALONE" he roared on.

"Father but you forget the fact he's already married and there for Sarah is no longer a threat to the other species" Skyler said

Her father stopped his outburst and took in what Skyler said, he straightened up and walked towards the door, Skyler soon followed suit as did her mother by taking Sarah's arm and they all followed the King to his study, the very one where they had their final moments together. Sarah had seen it hadn't changed a bit, the walls packed with shelves full of books, scrolls and files for the kingdom, his dark wood desk facing the door and it was over shadowed by huge French doors that lead to a balcony overlooking the entire kingdom.

The fire place had a steady flame as it brought warmth to the room; her mother pulled her over to a couch that faced the fire place as they both sat down Skyler walked over to them and sat down on the floor in front of Sarah resting his head on her knees as she stroked his hair. It was a picture perfect family moment, till a tall bulky man walked through the door his red eyes beaming at the king, he was wearing an armoured chest plate with two Lilf's carved into it. His short black hair did little to conceal a scar that went from his forehead and down the left side of his skull; he bowed down at the king, queen and prince but didn't seem to take notice of Sarah.

"My lord you summoned me" he said

"Yes Izalco I called you to ask you a question of utter most importance, now as my army commander and my best friend what would happen to my daughter if she returned?" He said in a steal tone

"well she would be perfectly fine, I see no reason why she would see harm the Goblin King is married and their attentions are now on his wife baring an heir" he said but Sarah couldn't help feel a bit of jealousy when he said 'his wife' "D'Artagnan why the ask of this question?"

"Sarah come here please" her father called

Sarah stood up slowly and walked over to her father who stood up from his desk as she walked over; Izalco was slowly putting two-and-two together but still needed clarification that this breathtaking girl was the forgotten child of the North. Sarah's father placed a hand on her shoulder and gestured towards her. "Izalco this is my daughter Sarah"

Izalco couldn't believe his eyes the child given up 20 years ago was now in front of him as a breath taking woman that was the very definition of the North Kingdom heir. He was happy that his best friend and king had finally gotten the daughter he yearned for so long, he walked over to her and pressed a gentle kiss to her hand.

"Princess it's a pleasure to have you back in the North Kingdom where you belong" he said to her

"Thank you Izalco it's good to be home" Sarah said with a smile

Izalco instantly felt why the D'Artagnan and Skyler where so protective of her and he would soon follow suit.

"Izalco I would wish of you not to speak of her arrival just yet "her father said

"I understand completely D'Artagnan, but when?" Izalco said

"After I sought out a few things"

Skyler suddenly stood up and swiftly walked out of the study without a word, leaving Sarah wondering what just happened to him.

Jareth was sitting on his throne with his legs draped over the side, his hand over his face while trying to drown out the voice of his wife telling the goblins what to do as they tidied up the castle making it look 'more like a castle should'.

"Sire, sire!" a goblin came running in.

"Yes what is it" he said in a frustrated voice

"The girl! The one dat beat the labyrinth somethin terrible has happened!"

Jareth felt his heart drop, he transported himself to Sarah's house only to see a sight he thought he would never see, blood covered everything in the house, the furniture knocked over and broken, he saw a large hole in the wall and walked over to it seeing the Lilf dead on the kitchen floor with a front leg missing. Jareth walked over to her room only to see a trail of blood leading into the room, kicking the door open he saw her bed covered in blood and that she was dragged not into the room but out, turning Jareth followed the trail to the lounge room and saw his Sarah, his beauty beaten, broken and surrounded by a pool of blood. Kneeling to her he picked her up and felt white hot rage course through him her womb was brutally sliced open.

"Sarah" he whispered pulling her close to him

"Jareth?" she whispered "is it you?"

"Yes" he said feeling tear fall from his eyes "yes it's me, I'm here"

"They came in saying something about not giving you an heir...that another species had to rule...what where they talking about?"

"Sarah! I should have brought you back to the underground where I knew you would be safe"

"I'm so tired" she said signing

"No Sarah please keep your eyes open" he pulled her closer to him "please don't close them"

Sarah coughed up blood that over flowed her mouth; Jareth turned her head to expel the blood.

"Jareth I'm scared" she said starting to cry

Jareth stared down at her feeling her heart beat slow he had to give her a reason to hold on.

Cover my eyes

Cover my ears

Tell me theses words are a lie

It can't be true

That I'm losing you

The sun cannot fall from the sky

He placed his hand on the side of her head and stared into her eyes

Can you hear heaven cry

The tears of an angel

The tears of aaaaaangel

The tears of an angel

The tears of an angel

Stop every clock

Stars are in shock

The river will run to the sea

He griped her tighter to him.

I won't let you fly

I won't say good bye

I won't let you slip away from me

Can you hear heaven cry

The tears of an angel

The tears of aaaaaaangel

The tears of an angel

The tears of an angel

Jareth could feel goblins slowly coming into the room, hearing tears falling from their eyes as they watched their king lose the only person he would love.

So hold on

Be strong

Every day hope will grow

I'm here' don't you fear

Little one don't let go!

(Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh)

The goblins joined in singing in perfect harmony with their king's loss.

Don't let go!

(Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh)

Don't let go!

(Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh)

Sarah placed her hand on his cheek, Jareth could feel her slipping away.

Cover my eyes

Cover my ears

Tell me these words are a lie

Sarah slowly began to close her eyes and let out her final breath, Jareth saw the light fade from her body as her hand went slack and fell to the floor the hole room went silent as Jareth felt his heart go dark from rage.

"Sarah" he whispered "Sarah please open your eyes"

"SARAH!" he yelled at the top of his lungs

Skyler felt a stab of guilt as he watched the Goblin King witness his sister's false death but he wanted to show him the danger he put her in, as he made the crystal disappear his father's words rang through him "make the Goblin King believe she is gone from this world, now!" He knew his sister was confused why he went out of his father's study so suddenly but he knew she would have to know some time. For now Skyler walked out of his room and towards his father's study where he could hear the laughter of his family, pushing the door open he saw his sister being taught to waltz.

"Skyler, where did you go off to?" Sarah asked as she danced

"Just off doing something Father asked me to do" he replied

"And did you finish what I asked you to do?" their father asked

"Yes" Skyler said with no emotion

They both finished their dance and just as they did a dark wave shocked through the whole kingdom they all ran out the French doors and onto the balcony where black clouds loomed in the great distance.

"What's happening?" their mother asked

"It seems the Centre King has gotten some bad news" the King said with a smile

"For him to sent that kind of wave it must be tragic news"

"I wonder what it was" Sarah said

"No matter, Sarah I think it's time you learn how to ride" her father said

"Ride what?" she asked

"My little sister in our kingdom we ride different kinds of animal and they come in different shapes and forms and here they are all feared" Skyler said " and it's not just like walking up to a horse and your off, no, the rider never chooses the animal, the animal chooses the rider"

"Great, when do I start?" she asked sarcastically

"How about tomorrow morning, does that sound like a plan father?" Skyler asked

"Sounds perfect, now Sarah get some rest you've have had a big day and an even bigger life to begin" her father said laughing.

Sarah nodded she hugged her mother and father and let Skyler lead her to her room as she started to ascend the stare case when a wave of fire coursed through her body, she could feel herself burning from the inside out, Sarah let out a soundless scream before darkness consumed her eye sight.

"What happened to her!" a familiar voice yelled

"Calm down Skyler she's just going through her transformation into Fae" said an unknown voice

"But why was it so violent?" Skyler asked

"well probably because she hasn't been exposed to the underground magic during her growing that it soon became suppressed but because she arrived here the magic instantly noticed that she was Fae and it saw her magic was suppressed and unlocked it in full motion but because it was built up over the years of her growing and it become stronger and stronger that when it was released it was too much for her to handle."

"Will she wake up?"

"Give it a minute; she's becoming full Fae in a matter of minutes, now if you'll excuse me I have to record every moment of this event" the unfamiliar voice sais and she could soon her the storks of a pen to paper.

Sarah felt a hand on her forehead the cold touch made her flinch away.

"Sarah, Sarah can you hear me?" Skyler said "squeeze my hand if you can hear me"

She felt his hand gently hold hers and she squeezed with as much effort as she could muster.

"Doc I felt her squeeze" Skyler said

"How hard was it?"

"Not very"

"Sarah my name is Axon I want you to give us a sign that you're conscious"

Sarah tried to move but her body failed her, then it hit her 'if I can't make my body move make something move' she thought, but what? She could feel a flame near her, concentrating she tried to make it go out.

"Sarah?" Axon said

She put all her being into making the flame go out, but all if a sudden she felt the whole room go dark.

"Doc I think she's conscious" Skyler said his voice filled with shock

"I have to agree with you there my boy"

Slowly Sarah felt a tickle go through her body but it was relaxing her, then a charge of magic rushed through her waking up every cell in her body and charging them full of energy, she opened her eyes, seeing everything clearer than before, smells were stronger, her hearing enhanced she could hear the heart beat of everything in the castle. She gripped the sheets around her tighter, Sarah was amazed at how soft the sheets were she could feel every soft fibre when it touched her skin, she could feel a mystifying hum in the room she sat up to see that the hum was coming from her brother and a man next to him. They were both staring at her with astonishment.

"Wow this is different" Sarah said
