Chapter 11: You get in there
Karen was sitting down against the outer wall of the labyrinth, asleep.
"What the hell is she doing? Why isn't she going through the labyrinth?"
Jareth shook his head and looked at Sarah sadly. "I don't know love. She said she was going to try. I don't know why she's just sitting there."
"Jareth she's not just sitting there, she's asleep for crying out loud! Doesn't she care about saving Toby?"
"Calm down Sarah. I'll go and find out what's happening."
He disappeared and left Sarah standing out the hall fuming about her step mother.
"Well, well, well. What have we here?"
Karen was startled from her slumber by Jareth's voice.
"What are you talking about goblin king?"
He sighed to himself before speaking again. "What I mean is that, shouldn't you be traversing my labyrinth and trying to get your son back?"
"Oh that. Yes well you see I tried to get in but I couldn't find a door or a gate so I decided to sit down and wait to see if you showed up. You did. So, how do I get in?"
"Didn't you see the dwarf?"
"Him?" she looked at Jareth in disgust. "Yes I saw that thing. Horrible little man."
"Well did he offer you any help?"
"Oh I suppose, but he kept saying I had to ask the right questions."
"Well did you try and ask the right question?"
Karen looked thoughtful for a moment. "I asked how to get in. When he started talking in riddles I walked away."
Jareth finally had enough. "You frustrate me to no end woman! I have your son! Your only child! And you just give up after less than an hour! I can't believe that you don't care. Besides that, I have your niece. She's not even your child to wish away! I would think you would try if only to retrieve her!"
Karen looked at him blankly.
"Gods! You get in the labyrinth there!"
With that the walls parted and Jareth disappeared.
