Chapter 6

Sibling Reconcile

Sarah looks towards Aphrodita and saw that she had a mischievous look in her eyes. Judging by that look, Sarah knew that Aphrodita had a way to get back on Jareth's good side.

"But, how can you be so sure that he won't stay mad at you for so long?" Sarah asked with a look of confusion.

"Because, no matter how many times Jareth gets mad at me, it never lasts long." Aphrodita answered. "All I need to do is get back on his good side."

"How are you going to do that?" Sarah asked.

"Don't you worry about that, Sarah dear. You leave that to me." Aphrodita answered, while smirking. "Why don't you wait back in my room and I'll go handle that stubborn Fae brother of mines?"

And with that, Sarah went back into Aphrodita's room and Aphrodita went down the hallway to find Jareth.

Okay, there are only three places Jareth goes to when he's annoyed with me; the library, the garden and his room. Aphrodita thought to herself. Let's try the library first.

Aphrodita snapped her fingers and she was in the library. She looked around the area, but she didn't see her brother anywhere.

"Okay, he's not here in the library. Let's try the garden then." Aphrodita said.

Aphrodita snapped her fingers again and she was back in the garden where she and Sarah were sitting down at. Aphrodita looked around and then she saw a barn owl perched in the tree, looking out towards the Labyrinth.

"I had a feeling I'd find you out here." Aphrodita smirked, looking towards the bird. "Are you going to sit in that tree all night Jareth, or what?"

In response to that, the barn owl flew off towards the castle and landed on a balcony. Aphrodita sighed, snapped her fingers and reappeared on the balcony, sitting on the railing next to the barn owl.

"Oh c'mon, Jareth. Don't tell me you're still mad at me, are you?" Aphrodita asked, looking at the barn owl.

What do you think, Aphrodita? Jareth's voice bitterly said in her mind, as the barn owl look back at her.

"Jareth, I told you already that I would accept full responsibility for what I've done." Aphrodita sighed. "I was just trying to help and make you feel better. I've done this all for you, y'know."

Aphrodita… Jareth's voice started, but Aphrodita cut him off.

"Please, just listen, Jareth. I just couldn't sit around and do nothing. I hate seeing you sad, lonely, and miserable like this. So, I did what I had to do and brought your precious Sarah back to you." Aphrodita explained, as she reached her hand out and softly stroke the barn owl's feathers.

The barn owl leaned in and moved closer, burying its head in Aphrodita's hand.

"I hope you can forgive me." Aphrodita said softly, continuing to caress the bird's feathters.

Suddenly, the barn owl flew off the balcony railing and into the room behind them. Aphrodita carefully gotten off the balcony and followed the bird into the room. Jareth's room was almost decorated like Aphrodita's room. The only thing that was different was the colors were red, gold, and black and there was also some furniture in the room. Then Aphrodita saw Jareth sitting down in one of the armchairs with one leg up, resting on the arm of the chair while putting on his black leather gloves.

"Jareth, can you at lease tell me you're not too mad me?" Aphrodita asked, walking towards her brother.

"I'm not mad, Aphrodita. Am I annoyed? Yes, I am." Jareth answered, looking towards his sister, as she knelt down beside him. "I know you mean well."

Aphrodita then wrapped her arms around Jareth, hugging him tightly as he did the same.

"It's only forever, not long at all. The lost and lonely." Aphrodita sang softly. "No one can blame you, for walking away. But too much rejection, no love injection, na na."

"Life can be easy, it's not always swell." Jareth sang, joining in with Aphrodita. "Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl. 'Cause it hurts like hell."

"But down in the underground, you'll find someone true." Aphrodita sang again. "Down in the underground…"

"A land serene, a crystal moon." Aphrodita and Jareth sang together. "Ah,ah."

"It's only forever; it's not long at all…" Jareth sang.

"The lost and lonely…" sang Aphrodita.

"That's underground. Underground." Sang Aphrodita and Jareth.

Aphrodita and Jareth stayed like this, hugging each other for quite some time, neither one of them moving. Then Aphrodita decided to break the silence between them.

"So, I take it that you're no longer mad at me and that you forgive me?" Aphrodita asked, looking up at her older sibling.

Jareth looked down at Aphrodita for a few minutes before smiling at her.

"Of course I forgive you." Jareth laughed, hugging his little sister tightly, as he kissed her on the forehead. "I can never stay mad at you for too long."

"So, Sarah can stay?" Aphrodita asked.

"She can stay, but she's your responsibility." Jareth answered.

"Great, I can't wait to tell her!" Aphrodita exclaimed happily, as she broke away from Jareth.

Then she snapped her fingers and disappeared. Jareth couldn't help but to laugh at how enthusiastic and happy his sister was. Then his thoughts went back to Sarah. His precious Sarah. Something was telling him that this was going to be beneficial for him and things will play out in his favor.

"Now…the real game begins." Jareth smirked, as a plan began forming in his mind. "Oh yes, precious. You won't be able to escape from me this time, Sarah."

And there you have it readers! it looks like Aphrodita's not the only one with a plan in mind. i do wonder what Jareth's up and how does it involve Sarah and maybe his sister, Aphrodita. i'm not sure when the next chapter will be up, but i do hope soon, so please be patient. so please, leave nice reviews and stay tuned...
