The King, The Teacher and The King's New Toy"Be down in a minute," Sarah yelled. Slamming the door, she turned around to face Jareth and Mr. Johnson.
"It's now, or never," Mr. Johnson said, exchanging amused glances with his brother.
"Or after dinner," Jareth finished.
"What are you two, twins?" Sarah asked exasperated.
"Exactly," the brothers said at the same time.
"Then why is she next-in-line for the throne?" Sarah asked, motioning towards the door wit her head.
"Because I live Aboveground," Mr. Johnson said, as if it were obvious. "Are you going to help us or not?"
"No," Sarah said defiantly.
"Oh, good," Jareth said, standing and walking towards the door. "I just love peach cobbler. Though it's probably been drugged," he turned to Sarah, "and she'll probably make us eat it anyways."
Sarah's expression faltered.
"Well, when you're thrown from the Underground," Mr. Johnson said, standing and following his brother, "I'll let you live with me."
The twins turned to face Sarah. "Coming?" they asked together.
"Fine," Sarah said, rolling her eyes. "I'll help you."
Jareth smirked and turned to his brother. "Care to join us for the night?"
"It would be good to see the Underground again," Mr. Johnson answered.
Sarah closed her eyes, rubbing her temples. Jareth was bad enough, but with her Biology teacher added to the mix, she wasn't sure how much she could handle. When she opened her eyes, the three were standing in small dining room used primarily for casual dining.
"No peaches," Jareth said to Sarah as the three sat down to eat and talk about their predicament.
