Hey guys!!! Thanks to all who reviewed and I hope this chapter answers some
of your questions..
Disclaimer: I do not own the movie Labyrinth. Ok? If I did I would be making a lot more money than I am now...;)
Sarah opened wide and let out a blood curdling scream. Jareth, King of the Goblins, was lying face down on the floor with a gun by his head and a knife by his heart. Sarah didn't know what was going on or what she was doing for that matter.
"JARETH!"
"Sarah what's all the-Oh no, Your Majesty! Wake up!" Katrina had bolted into the room as soon as she heard Sarah's first scream. "Where did he get that gun?!? Oh no, oh no, he finally lost control...what are we going to do?"
"Quick Hoggle go find a doctor or someone who can help." Sarah ordered.
"O-ok Sarah. I'll be back real soon."
"Katrina, what do you mean he finally lost control? Why would he try to kill himself?" Sarah asked, tears flooding her vision.
"Well you see Miss Sarah ever since you defeated him, he started going crazy. Now, there are many myths about why, the most obvious being that he never expected anyone to beat him. But I have my own ideas and I expect that everyone shall find out soon enough anyway."
"I-I never meant to make him go crazy, but I just had to get my little brother back. You understand that right?"
"Well of course I do missy. You just did what you had to do."

Jareth laid unconscious for he didn't know how long. But he did remember what he did.. He got the gun, put it to his head, and pulled the trigger. Nothing. He cursed himself for being Fae for up until that point he wasn't thinking straight so of course he forgot that nothing besides a special kind of iron could kill him.
That's where the knife came in.
It would work perfectly for the job he had selected it to do. He would stab himself to death. And then he would be able to forget. Oh and that would be sheer bliss to not know that a girl named Sarah ever existed. Unfortunately, he fell into a deep unconscious state where he didn't know what was going on, but he did know that there were people in the room with him. He started to awaken, but decided he could deal with them later. Unconsciousness was just what he needed right now. The goblins could deal with not having a king for a while.

"Yes I did. Do you think Jar- the King knows that?"
"In my personal opinion, yes he does. I don't think he minded you winning; he only minded you leaving. Did you know that when you were here he was smiling and laughing? Not those evil laughs mind you but sincere whole- hearted happy laughs. He hadn't laughed since his wife, the Princess Lilly, died over half a century ago. He loved her more than life itself. She was beautiful and she was the only woman His Majesty ever loved. Then you came along and all of a sudden it was like he was alive again. Now I don't know how you feel about His Majesty but he thinks an awful lot of you."
"Oh my God," Sarah whispered. "I-I had no idea."
"Well of course you didn't. How would you? I mean it's not every day you come to the Underground and fall in love with the Goblin King."
"No, no, no! I don't love him! I mean of course there is an attraction but it's not anything close to love."
"Just keep on telling yourself that and maybe one day you'll believe it," Katrina chuckled.
"But it's true! I only came here because he left me a note saying that if I should want to call on him, he wouldn't answer. And-and I wanted to know why." Sarah said stubbornly.
"Have you ever called on him before? I mean, except for the time you wished your brother away." Katrina asked.
"No." Sarah said softly the shame she felt evident in her voice.
"Well, it sounds to me like you didn't appreciate the fact that he would come if you just said the word. That is, you didn't until he was gone."
"Fine! So I didn't appreciate or even acknowledge it! What do you people want from me?"
Katrina sighed. "Oh I'm sorry I got you so upset Miss Sarah. I'll leave you be until Hoggle comes back."
"Ok. Thank you, Katrina."
As soon as she was alone Sarah fell on the floor next to the once mighty Goblin King and she bawled like a baby.
"God Jareth why did you have to do this to yourself? It was just a labyrinth there was no need for you to go berserk over me beating it... It wouldn't take that much to get my attention." She said as she placed a gentle kiss on his forehead.
With that, Sarah fell into the powerful grips of dreamless sleep.
