I own nothing from this.
A/N:
Thanks for the reviews everyone, it's really encouraging! And sorry, this
chapter is kinda short cause I don't have any ideas for what should happen, so I
couldn't make this chapter any longer.

Jareth's clutch held Sarah's upper arm
tightly as she struggled against him, while he transported them to a garden
outside of the castle. He released her arm and spoke in a soothing voice, like
he was talking to a small child. "Now there are lots of people here to see
us, so don't do anything that would embarrass us in front of everyone."
"Of coarse." She replied evenly,
although, with a glance into her eyes, it was like a battlefield during a war.
Her anger was visible and Jareth just snickered at her.
"That's what I thought." With
that, he took her arm now in a formal fashion, and began a march through a
hedge passageway, to where thousands of spectators were crowded around.
~*~*~*
"...Don't do anything that would
embarrass us in front of everyone."
'Ha!' Sarah thought. 'Just watch!'
"Of coarse." Her mouth replied,
but the rest of her was screaming, "I hate you! I hate you!" And he
dared to laugh at her inner struggle. 'That man will never forget the day he
messed with me!' She thought defiantly as he took her arm in a fashionable way
and began a walk. Her mind went in a daze as she saw all those people, and
other beings. From what she knew of legendary creatures, there were elves,
fairies, fays, gnomes, and goblins.
Things around gradually became blurry and
all she saw clearly was a tall Fay, standing at the end of the path that they
were currently walking down, and Jareth; wearing a black coat trimmed with gold
braid, a jabot, tie back vest, and black leggings. 'Oh crap, this is really a
wedding.' Sarah realized how close her clothing and Jareth's looked to an
Earth's wedding attire, as well as the official looking Fay, who she assumed
was something like a pastor for a wedding.
With each step she and Jareth took,
getting closer and closer to the end of the path, Sarah thought frantically for
what she could do to distract this ceremony, when, to her amazement, a loud
crash was heard. Jareth stopped when he heard it, the people murmured, and
Sarah smiled. Large boulders came flying, rolling, and tumbling rapidly towards
the crowd.
'Ludo!' She thought joyfully as she heard
his howls from afar. Jareth, rage evident, quickly moved away from Sarah, and
practically ran through the crowd of panicking onlookers, yelling "GUARDS!".
Sarah watched him do this when she was smacked in the leg by an object.
'Didymus! Hoggle!' She cried within
herself as she saw her dear friends.
"Here Sarah, take this." Hoggle
held out to her a small vial of greenish liquid. "You'll be able to talk
again."
Sarah more then happily snatched it from
him and gulped it down. "Oh Hoggle! Didymus! I'm so glad you guys
came." She said ecstatically as she hugged them.
"There's no time for that Sarah. We
have to get you 'outta here." Hoggle said annoyed that Sarah was always so
emotional.
"Ok which way?" Sarah
questioned.
"Follow us, Milady." Didymus
told her as they all started to run from the chaotic scene of a goblin army
running around, and people running, screaming, and avoiding huge boulders.
~*~*~*~*
Jareth watched from his high towered room,
his mindless goblins chase after everything that moved, thinking it was the
enemy, his subjects stumble aimlessly around; trying to escape boulders and the
dumb goblins, and Sarah, his Sarah, running away from him again, only this time
with the traitorous creatures that she had befriended.
"What am I going to do?" He wondered out
loud at his current situation. Sarah was gone; so he had to find a way to get
her back, and his subjects, as well as several royals from the realm witnessed
this embarrassing event. The King of the Goblins wasn't know for having anyone
disobey him, and now several of his subjects, as well as his to-be queen had
openly disobeyed him. He didn't want to get the reputation of becoming soft, or
neighboring kingdoms might get ideas of conquest.
He could very well appear to where Sarah
was, and take her back. He wouldn't let
her escape again, but she'd still constantly think of him as a fiend. He needed
a plan to get her wanting to come back, and show the citizens of his
kingdom, and other rulers that he hasn't become pliable.
Jareth gazed at several crystals that
appeared, as he shifted them around and around in his hand, wondering what his
next move will be.

Nothing at all to do with the story
but:
You know what?! I got some of these
rock sphere things, kinda like J's only there like granite and I twiddle them
around in my hand just like he does, and it's surprisingly relaxing. I suggest,
for anyone under lots of stress, get some of these things, or just borrow some
from J, I'm sure he'll let ya =)
