Here is Ch3 like I promised. I would like to thank all my reviewers and my editor. Tell me what you think.
Ch3 The Cousin of Jareth
Toby and Jareth were walking down the hedge pathway when Toby turned to Jareth and said, "I know you like my sister." Jareth looked at Toby startled. The statement had come out of nowhere, but Toby continued, "I'm whiling to help you out."
Jareth was surprised and yet not. He knew that Toby was both smart and observant.
"I made you a list of what she likes, and dislikes. Use it wisely." He started to walk off but turned around to add, "And Jareth, if you hurt Sarah you will pay dearly."
Then Toby ran off to where the door guards were and started to talk with them.
Jareth was a little stunned by Toby's bravery; this was a five year old boy making a threat to the almighty Goblin King. He just shook it off and followed Toby on through the labyrinth, and strangely enough Toby had taken all the same paths through the labyrinth that Sarah had.

Sarah finished her book and wanted to take a break. Sam jumped up off the bench and stretched in the cutest way imaginable and gave a big yawn. He started to wag his tail and barked like he wanted something. Sarah go up and asked, "What is it boy?" He barked again and ran off toward an opening in the garden. Sarah ran after him a little worried because Sam had never run off like that before. Sam was at a full sprint and Sarah was barley keeping within two yards. Sam made so many turns she couldn't keep track of them.
Sam jumped on a man looking around at the scenery. He hit the ground with a loud "umph." Sam jumped on the surprised man who started to laugh when Sam began liking his face.
It was Jareth's cousin, Deon. Deon was sweet, kind, and the elf prince. It had been a very long time since Sam had seen him plus every time Deon and Sam saw each other they would play the strangest games. Sometimes Deon would turn himself into a dog and they would play a game of hide and seek or something like that. Deon was Sam's best bud (not including Sarah).
Sarah caught her breath while Deon got up off the ground. "Hi, Deon. It's been a long time. Sam agrees."
"Hi, Sarah. I see you have been taking good care of Sam." He patted Sam's head and said with a smile, "So how long are you going to be here, and were is that cousin of mine?"
"Toby and I are going to be here for the weekend, and Jareth is giving Toby a tour of the labyrinth as we speak. How is Cerenity?" (Deon's wife)
"Oh, she's great and she wants to see you again, but she had to take care of something. She said something about caching up with you later or something like that."
"It has been a while since we really were able to talk. Oh well. We'll get to catch up soon I hope. Why are you visiting Jareth today if you don't mind me asking?"
"Not at all. I just wanted to talk to Jareth about something. Nothing to worry about though. Shall we head back toward the castle or would you like to stay here longer."
"Heading back would be nice."
They started toward the castle after Sarah used a search crystal. When they reached where Sarah had been before she summand another book and Deon transformed into a brown Shepard and played tag with Sam.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jareth and Toby saw Sarah sitting on a bench. She was half way through a historical text. Loud noises could be herd coming form somewhere nearby and in two seconds they could see Sam and Deon running and barking as loud as they could. When Deon saw them he transformed to his Fea form and said, "Hello dear cousin."
"Deon what are you doing here?" Jareth wondered why he would show up now. Usually his wife would give him a very long to do list around this time of year.
"I have some info you might want to know later but first let's have dinner. I'm famished"
