Never-ending Story

Today Hoggle was peeing by a small pool when a young girl rudely interrupted him. She never asks the right question so Hoggle can never tell her the right answer. He helped her through the labyrinth and played his normal role of letting her do all the work and toddling along, not really giving a care at all. How many times he'd watched the girl do this he wasn't sure anymore.

He cursed her for making the same stupid mistake every bloody time! When you capture the heart of a King you do not let him go! Even the most idiotic of creatures, the goblins, could figure that much out for themselves. But still again and again she'll say the words, and until she breaks her habit of messing up the story with her precious 'no power over me', the rest of the labyrinth and its occupants will be stuck inside this time loop: getting angrier each time she fails.

Today she came closer. Today she almost took a second longer, at the end of her 13 hours, deciding to climb the stairs to the room the rest of them are not allowed near.

Hoggle was clueless as to what Jareth kept up there, and as Sarah says, every time she leaves him with the fox and the orange fur ball, she 'has to do it alone' therefore there's simply no way Hoggle can ever help her up there. He may not like Jareth, but even Hoggle can see how much it hurts him to see Sarah repeat everything she does: never changing anything but the small details. Like which way she turns in the maze, which door she goes through and in turn which way she asks the helping hands to let her go.

Tonight Hoggle watched the clock rewind again, as it had done every night for the past forever.

But what Hoggle doesn't know is that tomorrow the King may just decide to enlighten Sarah on the trouble she's causing everyone.

Tomorrow Hoggle will be peeing by a small pool when a confused young girl will come stumbling up to him and will ask him to take her to the Castle to meet the King. Tomorrow, for the first time in forever, Sarah will ask the right question and Hoggle will do exactly as she asks.
