This is the second to last Chapter! SOB! Sorry it's a bit short. Please enjoy!

Chapter Twelve: Being dead and Revenge

"Bye!" Toby yelled, giving his final goodbye from the carriage window as he waved to his friends. It had been a slightly tearful goodbye, Hermione had given him a book on old magic, Ron had given him his spare pair of Fred and George's Ear Wiggs he had been given and Harry had given him some Chocolate frogs and Every flavour beans. Toby intended to use his new gifts as soon as he got home. It would be easy getting to the Underground from Hogsmead train station, where he would be dropped off outside the schools magical influence. He was looking forward to curling up in bed with the book while eating the frogs and beans and listening out for his mother so she wouldn't tell him off for staying up late to read.

Before he knew it, he found himself outside his house. The mid afternoon light shone on the door handle as he turned it, pushed down and entered the house as quietly as he could, so as not to alert his mother. Toby paused his creeping when he heard sobbing and, quietly, ducked into the coat closet to summon up a crystal of the living room and find out what was going on. He saw his mother crying on the couch surrounded by Sarah and his five best friends who all looked upset, except Sarah who glared in his direction, and tried to comfort the distressed women. Toby jumped when a bang of the front door was heard and his father rushed into the room to embrace his mother, obviously straight from work.

"I… I… I don't know where he is…" Karen sobbed into her husbands chest.

He shushed her and rocked her slightly whilst rubbing her back. "It's okay, honey. It's okay. I'm sure Toby's okay."

"He… was never in bed. He didn't come home last night…" Karan continued to sob, clutching her husbands shirt like it was a life preserver.

Sarah glared at Toby and mouthed. 'Get here, Now!' Two of Toby's friends, casual a mousy brown haired boy called Allen and a scruffy dark haired boy called Jules, looked at her strangely. Toby only shook his head at her, fearing his mothers wrath. His sister glowered as she pulled up her sleeve and muttered to him, "Fine, if that's the way you want it." as she used a handy pencil to scribble down something on a scrap piece of paper lying on the coffee table. "Read this." She told the nearest of his friends, a blond little girl in a green dress. Gwen, as that was the girls name, looked at the paper oddly as Allen, Jules and his other friends, a baseball capped tomboy called Tracy and a dark dressed boy with dark red dyed hair which stuck up called David, come over to look over her shoulder at the note.

"'I wish the Goblin Prince was here, right now'?" They all quoted together in puzzlement.

'Deuce!' Toby swore as he pummelled through the air to fall and land on his back in the middle of the living room, clad in Goblin Prince attire, with a meaty thump.

He was lucky he didn't land on the coffee table…

Karen screamed, his dad and friends all jumped and Sarah gave him a wicked smile as Toby groaned, sure he had broken something. "Do you know how nauseous I feel?" He growled to his sister. "Not to mention the fact my back is killing me." Laughter started in the back of his head and Toby frowned up to the ceiling, sensing Jareth watching and was responsible for the wardrobe change.

"Sarah thought this would be an opportune time for you to 'face the music', as it were, and take some responsibility." Toby heard the king whisper as he tried to sit up.

'Haven't I got enough responsibility? I'm the Goblin Prince!' Toby thought sarcastically as he stirred.

"You've got to start getting use to teleports anyway." Toby heard Sarah mutter.

"That's it," Her baby brother muttered as he succeeded in partly sitting up. "I'm warding myself." Jareth only laughed again.

"Toby!" Karen rushed to her son's side to suffocate him in a hug, only pausing for a second to whack him over the head. "I'm gonna kill you!" She half cried and laughed.

"Yeah." Toby wheezed as he watched his dad stare suspiciously at the ceiling and his friends come over. Sarah only smirked from her seat on a chairs arm with her arms folded.

"Where have you been!" His mother interrogated.

"Umm…" Toby looked to Sarah for support. All she did was sigh and roll her eyes as she pulled over a chair for Toby to sit on.

"Let him talk." Sarah said in her brothers defence as she brought the chair over.

"The truth." Karen insisted as she release the boy.

"Okay." Toby sighed before explaining, "I was in England doing a routine check up on the House Elves in a school for witchcraft and wizardry, called Hogwarts, for a few days. I would have come home this morning but Krypton, a Troll lord and Loam, the fourth Brownie Prince called on me, at 3 in the morning, to settle a dispute. So I only had a couple of hours sleep and I had a bit of a lie in when I went back to my room in Hogwarts." Allen had gone white while Sarah looked mildly interested and everyone else was looking at him like he was fresh from the funny farm.

"Well?" Sarah broke the silence. "What did Prince Loam and Lord Krypton want?" Now everyone looked at her like she was the crazy one.

"Apparently they wanted to know who was faster, a Troll or a Brownie. So I set up a race from one end of the Goblin Castles Gardens to another."

"Who won?" David asked, enjoying Toby's story.

"No one." Toby shrugged. "Krypton tripped over and ended up falling on Prince Loam. When I left they were still trying to peel him off Krypton's tunic."

"Oh, how horrible." Gwen cried.

"He'll be okay." Toby assured everyone. "Brownies are amazingly elastic creatures. You could ping one off your fingers like an elastic band if you wanted, but I don't think they'd like it. I expect he'll just need a bit of rest." He distracted himself by dusting off the front of his white poets shirt as everyone took in the information.

His parents only blinked at him, while his friends found it a good joke. "Nice one Toby." Jules laughed as he slapped the Goblin Princes shoulder. "But seriously. Where've you been? A theatre troop? Look at what your wearing." He indicated Toby's outfit.

"This is the usual attire the Goblin Prince is required to wear." Toby sighed. 'They're just not getting it.' He thought as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Of course they don't 'get it'." Jareth's voice sounded in his ear as the world around Toby and Sarah froze. Jareth appeared in a puff of glitter on the seat Sarah was leaning against, causing her to jump in alarm and fall into his lap. With a chuckle he scooped her up properly and let her curl up against him.

"Why Aboveground didn't you just wipe everyone's memories of me being away?" Toby started to rant.

"Because," Jareth purred. "as you are the one who went away, you are the one responsible for your actions."

"How can I wipe someone's memory if I'm not there! And if I was, that defeats the entire idea of wiping their memories in the first place!" The boy protested, standing in front of the couple with his hands on his hips.

Jareth only smirked at the boy having a hissy fit. "That's you're problem too."

"You haven't even shown me that memory spell yet!" Toby was ready to throw something at the king when Sarah saved the day. She turned to the Goblin King, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him deeply. The kiss left both parties breathless as they stared into each others eyes, Toby only rolled his eyes at the display.

"Don't worry, Toby." Sarah assured him after her romantic interlude. "Jareth's just being difficult."

Jareth humphed and frowned playfully at her. "You were the one who wanted to see your brother squirm." He accused Sarah, prodding her side and making her wriggle.

"So this was your idea of revenge the entire time!" Toby practically screamed.

"Way to drop me in it, Jareth." Sarah muttered as she slapped the grinning Kings arm.

"I live only to serve." He teased.

"Good grief!" Toby was beside himself. "Why didn't you just broadcast my baby photos around school, or something!"

"Toby." Sarah interrupted. "This wasn't my revenge."

"What?"

"Why would I want revenge for being caught playing 'Twister'?" Sarah asked.

"Oh, no reason." Toby sighed, relived. If Sarah wanted revenge, she could come up with something even Jareth would consider cruel. "So, Mum and Dad and everyone, won't remember a thing?"

"That's right." Jareth grinned.

"Oh." Toby scratched the top of his head "Just checking." He muttered to the grinning pair as he made his way to the stairs to go to his room and lie down.

(I'm sorry. I had a whole lot of answers to reviews all written up, but them my computer spazzed out and I lost them! Forgive me! The next chapter is the final chapter, (Sob!) and as such will be based on Toby. If you have read my previous notes, you will see I wrote one (Somewhere) that this fic is based on Toby.I put Sarah in the first chapters bacause I thought it would be boring if Toby just found out his sister was injured and somwhere in England. If you guys want a sequel, which will have more Sarah in it, please give me your suggestions. Maybe I'll do lots of little one-shots from each idea and dedicate it to you guys. But for now I am contimplating Sarah's revenge on Toby! AF laughed at some of my ideas, but I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. --; Anyway here's my re-written shout outs! Not as good as the origanal's but still decent.)
