They appeared in a park, it was old a dark figure scuttled away as Sarah sighed. She knew this place, when it was new, a place for romance and adventure….the place where she'd dreamt as she'd breathed.
Jareth frowned not understanding her sadness for her childhood world. Sarah flicked her wrist, a golden mist flushed through showing the park how it had been, the fresh grass, laughs of children, the graffiti covered temple a shining white, then the illusion faded to grey, then to the night.
"Sarah?" A voice said behind her, slightly trembling with emotion. She twisted, ready for anything, anything but what she saw.
"Oh my gods"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Jarethhh" a voice sang beside him "Jarethhhhh" he looked down and behind and saw a small sprite.
"Hello little one"
"How are you today?" The sprite looked strange; Jareth couldn't place what was wrong. He heard Sarah speak and spun around
It was Toby! Or rather the young man he had grown into, he looked about 20 and was standing in front of her.
"Sarah? Why are you holding a sword at me?" Toby looked upset, so Sarah sheathed her sword. He held his arms out to her and they hugged.
With her back to Jareth he saw Toby hugging her and began to walk towards them. He felt a pain in his ankle, the sprite had bitten him! But sprites can't bite…..
"Don't you think they should be alone majesty? Why not sit and watch?" Jareth frowned and tried to move, his steps were sluggish somehow.
He looked up at Sarah, who was still being hugged by Toby. The boy looked at Jareth, his eyes gleamed red in the dark, Jareth's eyes widened as he came to a realisation, he tried to shout but could barley breathe.
'Toby' winked at Jareth and smirked, he then threw Sarah to the floor.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She stayed down staring at the boy in disbelief "Toby? What…?"
"Don't be stupid woman!" he snarled, he seemed to grow his shoulders widened and his shirt split to allow a large sail (like a dinosaur….not a ship) two slender horns grew from his head and he laughed a grotesque version of Toby before the illusion dropped.
He had a spiked lounge and he flicked it out, like a snake tasting the air.
Sarah had not wasted time watching his transformation; she was on her feet with her sword out in a fighting stance.
"Why my dear Queen" he hissed "are you worried by my appearance?"
Sarah didn't reply
"You should, be more worried about your dear Jareth……"
Sarah froze, willing herself NOT to look at Jareth, Not to check on him, she felt down her bond, something was wrong, his thoughts were slow. She turned to check….her fatal mistake.
The creature jumped forward, his tongue hitting her in the neck, a brief pain and then she fell. Her last image was Jareth lying in the grass staring unblinkingly at the sky.
