Chapter: Two – I Just Cleaned Up a Bit
9 Hours Later…
Jareth appeared in his throne room. His jaw dropped as a goblin ran, screaming, to hide behind his leg.
"Please, yer highness, save me! She's trying to... clean me!"
Jareth looked around the throne room, unable to believe the sight which met his eyes. All around the throne room were little, neatly groomed female goblins, wearing dresses, cleaning. The males were all huddled in a corner, trmbling with fear. As Jareth watched, Henrietta, now weaing rubber gloves, grabbed the goblin behind him and unceremoniously dumped it in a washing tub.
Scrubbing the goblin, Henrietta cooed to it, "There, there...That's not so bad, is it?"
The goblin screamed.
Henrietta caught sight of Jareth just then and, at her gesture, two of the female goblins took over scrubbing the wailing male. She started yelling at Jareth. "Where the Hell have you been?! I had to handle these... things" she gestured at the goblins, "all by myself. AND clean this pigsty!"
Jareth gained back his voice. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, WOMAN?!"
"I just cleaned up a bit."
Jareth promptly disappeared, covering everything with glitter.
Henrietta sighed. "Great. Now I'll have to sweep again."
