Disclaimer: I own everything, cause I stole it from Jim Henson...don't ask
me how but I did. Anyway...anyone who believes that is dumber than my
sister...and that's saying something.
Chapter 12
Jareth looked into the crystal to watch the Aboveworld. He was watching something intently. And it wasn't Sarah.
*In the crystal*
Sarah's father and step mother were talking to the police about Sarah.
"Yes officer, she was left here by herself for a few hours whilst myself, wife and son went out. No I didn't think she'd ever attempt suicide. Sure she might have the occasional argument with my wife or myself...but never anything that might cause her to attempt something so drastic."
"Well thank you Mr Williams. We'll put out a missing persons profile on her, see if we get anything. You'll just have to wait and see Mr Williams. I'm sorry."
The policeman and his partner walked out the front door and down the drive to their car.
Robert sat down heavily in the nearest chair and put his head in his hands.
*Back to Jareth*
"Serves you right little mortal. You didn't deserve her and now, you have lost her. "Such a pity."
Jareth sat in his study, savouring the silence and time away from those goblins he was meant to rule over. What a joke that was. They didn't do anything right. All they really did was eat, sleep and get drunk. Even the ones in his goblin army weren't much use. They were defeated by a mortal teenager girl for crying out loud! Granted that it was Sarah, and she...defeated him too. But come on! They were still hopeless. Oh well. Luckily Sarah was the only person, or being at all to defeat his Labyrinth. So it didn't overly matter if his army wasn't up to scratch.
Jareth summoned another crystal, this time to look in on Sarah. When he had left her she had been asleep, but she could be awake now. When he saw that she was still asleep he made to dispose of the crystal, until something in the corner of the room caught his eye.
"What's this?"
He looked closer and smirked at what he saw.
"Come to see your friend have you?"
It was an image of Hoggle in the crystal.
"I suppose I could let him off this once. He is her friend after all. Oh Gods, I'm going soft with her around. Doesn't really matter anyway," he sighed and the crystal disappeared.
*Sarah's room*
Hoggle had snuck in, hoping to see if the rumours that there was a mortal girl in the castle. And not just any mortal, the one who had beaten Jareth's Labyrinth.
He wanted to see her, but he also kind of hoped that she wasn't back here. With him.
He made his way over to the bed that held the sleeping mortal and saw that it was indeed Sarah.
"Sarah, what are you doin' back in this place?
Sarah stirred a little and Hoggle backed slowly away, not wanting to wake her. He would come visit her properly another day. He couldn't risk her mentioning anything to Jareth about seeing him there. He would come back though.
A/N: I know it's short, but I'm about to start the next chapter so there's more to come soon. And remember to review! Hope you like it. RW
