Chapter Four

I didn't know, until much later, that at that time, morning had come back at my house. Time is so different between the two worlds. When mom came to my room to wake me up, she discovered me gone. She looked for me around the house and started to become extremely worried. She saw my pajamas on my bed and that my shoes and jacket were gone. She became more worried and was wondering what her next move should be, when she saw my computer was on. She turned on the monitor and saw that I was signed on in a chat room. She started getting all kinds of scenarios in her head. She then saw the name Hoggle. She was shocked. She read the messages and her mouth hung open. She hadn't heard from any of her friends from the labyrinth, since the night she had escaped it. They had said they'd always be there for her, but they never appeared again. And now, Hoggle was contacting her daughter. She was still worried, but had calmed a bit. She had survived her adventure, so why couldn't I? She then noticed something she hadn't before. Hoggle's screen name was hetraJKG. She wondered what that could mean. She stared at it until the letters seemed to magically dance themselves around. They turned the name backwards and mom gasped. It spelled out GKJareth; Goblin King Jareth. Mom's fear returned, but she didn't know what to do. She heard Hilary calling for her so mom went to send Hilary to school. She would figure out something once Hilary was gone.
