Chap 8

Old and good friends share a piece
of passion, pain, and pleasure
that no one else, no family can
Begin to know or treasure.

It's as if a secret room
Held their private store,
And every time they met, they could
Go through some special door.

It doesn't matter if they see
Each other every day,
Or years and years go by before
They come and go away:

The moment that they meet it's all
there--the memories of
fierce loyalty and times of need
gratitude and love.

Jareth was sitting next to Sarah' bed deep in thought, he looked awful having not slept for 3 nights; and had not moved form Sarah's side once throughout out the time she'd been lying unconscious. He had tried every remedy, spell and potion he had but nothing seemed to work, black and purple stains marked the walls where he had thrown his crystals in frustration. He was exhausted and had bags under his eyes, and would only eat when truly necessary .Nothing he was trying was working and he was getting more and more anxious with each failure.

"She should have woken up by now, what am I doing wrong?"

He laid his head back on his chair.

"I hope the goblins aren't giving Rialle and Kherron a hard time" he laughed to himself. But he knew there would be no problem, Kherron could handle anything he had proven that to Jareth many times when they were children.

Jareth thought back to that time it was so long ago, he'd been at school with all the other Fae children destined to become royalty, it was a good school where they would teach you to control and use the powers that you were blessed with. Jareth was lonely child he didn't have any friends at that point, the other children had always poked fun at him as he was to become Goblin King when grown. A post which most found undesirable because of the reputation the goblins had for being smelly, noisy and stupid creatures.

"Hey Jareth"a raven haired boy called to a tall thin with blonde hair just past his chin. "What now" he thought.

"Hey, you know when you're crowned will that make you one of those gruesome creatures you're going to rule eh Jareth?"

The boy asked snickering at his "cleverness" his bunch of followers also joined in.

"He wouldn't need to change much he already looks like one" one added.

"And smells like one" another added causing a bunch of laughs.

Jareth got up and walked away he had this every day and quite frankly he was sick of it ,it took all of his self control not to wipe the smirks off all of their idiot faces but he knew that he couldn't he would be expelled plus this guys father was head of the Seelie court ,therefore no one ever dared touch him and the boy knew this full well.

"Hey goblin I'm talking to you" and he shoved Jareth into a wall.

"That's enough" a voice shouted over the crowd that had gathered, eagerly awaiting a duel. Another tall boy with dark hair and deep green eyes shoved through the crowd and stood in front of the boy.

"What's up with you Kherron, sticking up for old Gobi now are we?"

"Yeah that's right so clear off"

"Make Me; like you'd dare Kherron, you'll be expelled" the boy smirked

"Watch me" and a bright ball of blue thunder appeared in his hand.

"Kherron don't bother he's not worth it" Jareth called, he was totally embarrassed by this now they'd all think he was helpless to but he was surprised Kherron had never shown any interest in helping him before.

"Oh he is trust me" he replied not taking his eyes of the boy who was now starting to lose his nerve slightly. "You asked for this" and yellow sparks started coming out of the ball.

"STOP" a girl shouted freezing both of them and walked towards the front of the crowd gracefully.

"Unfreeze me now, you stupid witch" the boy ordered.

"Hey you talk like that to her again or even look at her funny and even this freezing spell won't be able to hold me back from killing you" Kherron hissed thunder flickering in his eyes now.

He calmed himself "Rialle let me go, I'm not going to bother trust me" he asked her. Rialle unfroze him and waved cheekily at the boy, they walked over to Jareth leaving the other boy frozen

"You'll get in to trouble for that you know" Jareth said to Rialle amazed by her powers

"Hey who cares that creep deserved it" she laughed "and besides if he's lucky he'll start cracking in a few hours.
