Chapter 5
Sarah wandered around the castle aimlessly. She felt so at home there. She seemed to know every inch of it. She finally decided to go back to the throne room and what she witnessed there made her laugh harder than she ever had before.
Jareth was sitting on his throne with his leg resting on a stool when Lynn approached him. She had undone the top buttons of her blouse revealing a lacy pink bra. She had also tied the bottom of the shirt so that it revealed her navel. Lynn sauntered up to Jareth and straddled his lap. He looked up at her with emotionless eyes. She started grinding a little on his lap, but was obviously not receiving a response. She growled.
"What the hell is your problem? You've got a beautiful woman crawling all over you here, but you are pining of that Plain-Jane, Sarah."
It was Jareth's turn to growl.
"She is not plain. She is wonderful and caring and gorgeous. You on the other hand, are a slut."
Sarah laughed and walked into the room.
"Jareth, I'm touched that you would stand up for me, but I can do that myself."
She turned to Lynn.
"Get off him Barbie."
With a quick flick of her wrist, Sarah sent Lynn flying onto the floor without laying a hand on her. Lynn looked at Sarah in shock, as did Jareth.
"How the hell did you do that, Silent Sarah?" asked Lynn.
"None of your business Barbie, now scram before you see what this crystal ball can do," Sarah said as she formed a crystal ball in her hand. Lynn scowled but got up and inched her way out of the throne room, trying to avoid Sarah as best as possible. When she was gone, Jareth turned to Sarah.
"How can you do that?"
Sarah sighed.
"I have no clue. I know I couldn't do it last time I was here; at least I don't thinks so. It was like when I came back, I could feel the magic of the Labyrinth and then all this magic I'm performing is like a sixth sense or something. Does that even make sense?"
Jareth contemplated what she said for a moment and then nodded.
"Yes, it does make sense. I feel that sensation all the time. I can literally feel the magic that is around me and I don't even have to think about how to use my powers. I've had that feeling every since I turned into a fey adult and received my powers."
"So what does that mean for me?" Sarah asked.
"My dear Sarah, I do not know."
Sarah sighed and formed a crystal in her hand. She then through it to the right of Jareth and it formed into her favorite easy chair from home. She then went and sat down in it.
"I don't know what to do, Jareth. This is really starting to scare me. Not to mention the fact that Brad is down to 11 hours, and has just gotten into the Labyrinth. I'm going to be stuck here forever with these powers and I don't want to be. I don't want to be stuck with these people forever and I don't know what to do!"
Jareth got out of his throne and walked over to Sarah. He gathered her into an embrace and let her cry on his shoulder. When she was finally done, she lifted her head up and looked into his mismatched eyes. She was drawn into them and didn't realize she was moving forward until his lips were on hers in a searing, heart pounding kiss. Sarah let herself get lost in it, until she realized who those lips belonged to.
"No!" she said pushing him away. She was losing control fast, and she planned on being in control and driving Jareth crazy for want with her, not have herself wanting him. It was just a revenge game, or so she wanted to believe.
Sarah stood up and turned to Jareth.
"We will never be that way. I'm going to make sure Brad gets through the Labyrinth and make your life a living hell while doing so."
She then walked out of the room, leaving a very confused Jareth in her wake.
"Women," he muttered.
Two pale blue eyes peaked into the room again.
"You two must be free of controversy before you can become one."
