Chapter Two:

A Turn in the Road

Sarah arrived home just before seven, not wanting to talk to her dad or Karen; she bolted up the stairs and closed the door behind her. Once in her room she let out a sigh and sunk into her bed. Jareth, Jareth, Jareth, Jareth… (You get the point) She rolled over onto her back, and stared at the ceiling. She continued to think of the Goblin King, until she started feeling weird, like she was falling. The feeling grew stronger; she closed her eyes trying to make the sensation go away. She made a fist as she felt that should hit the ground. She tightened her closed eyes and all of the sudden she felt arms around her. Her eyes snapped open, and she looked up to see Jareth hold her, only she wasn't in her room, she was in the throne room. "Wha..?"

Sarah had no time to finish before a clock cut her off. Her head snapped to the sound and she saw that it had just stricken thirteen; with shock filled eyes she turned her attention back to Jareth. "Time's up Sarah, you lost." He said with a smirk.

Haha, I've always wanted to do the fake stop thing… okay now that that's out of my system.

Unable to think Sarah screamed. "TOBY!"

"The boy is now mine, unless….." He looked down at Sarah.

Sarah was mixed with strong two very strong emotions, sadness and anger. Sarah's head snapped up to face the Goblin King. "Unless what?"

"Unless of course, you'd like to trade places with him. It would be such a pity to not let this poor baby to never experience life." He looked at her, seeing as she looked like she wasn't quiet sure he continued on. "Although he would make a great goblin, of course all the positions are filled so I suppose he could be a slave."

Sarah's eyes widened. "Slave! Oh, please no, I'll do anything, please let him go." Tears filled her eyes, and Jareth smirked at her.

"So you will take his place?" Sarah nodded, looking pitiful. A smile grew on Jareth's face, "Well, then I guess the baby's free. Say good-bye Sarah."

Before she could say anything Toby poofed away, "Bye" she whispered. Then her sadness turned to anger and confusion. "What the hell happened? WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO ME?"

Okay now I'm ending, and no I wouldn't pull the stunt twice. Don't worry all will be explained in the next chapter, which will be posted shortly. I hope you all still stay to read the story, the plot I have planned is good, and well quiet frankly I like the reviews. Don't be to mad, it's going to be better in the end.
