Darklady: I'm sorry everyone . . . it took me awhile to find Jareth.
Jareth: I was busy . . . you're not the only writer on this site you know.
Sarah: You know I was busy too. But she managed to find me just fine.
Jareth: You're not as well liked as me.
Darklady/Sarah: (Smack Jareth upside head) BE NICE!!
Jaerth: If you continue to treat me this way my dear Lady, I will be forced to take my leave. (Sound of door opening and closing).
Darklady: (turns and smiles at man who walked in) Hello love. What are you doing here?
Ly: I though that I would check on you. (Give Jareth deadly look) Perhaps talk with Jareth a bit.
Sarah/Darklady: (snickers)
Sarah: Umm . . . Lady . . . who is this?
Darklady: This is Ly my . . . gaurdian angel and boyfriend.
Jareth: (looks at Ly with displeasure)
Darklady: Alright everyone I think we should be getting to the story. Umm . . . (turns to Sarah) Lets leave Jaerth and Ly to talk. Everyone else read and enjoy.
Chapter 8: Sing song
Jareth and Sarah walked quietly to her house. Sarah lost to her thoughts. In one day Jareth had learned more about her then James had in 5 years. 'What the heck is so special about him that I just spill my guts like this?' Sarah risked a look at him. He seemed to be just as lost in his mind as she was in his. 'Labyrinth does Jareth ever talk to you like I do?' Sarah asked still looking at Jareth. 'No mistress he doesn't.' Sarah didn't get to ask another question, because when she looked around her she saw that she was right in front of her house.
"Alright Jareth my parents aren't home. But I'm sure the babysitter is. So you have to make yourself invisible and make sure that they can't see or hear you." Jareth nodded and followed Sarah into her house, surprising Sarah when he did so without argument.
Walking into the house Sarah and Jareth were greeted with Toby crawling up the stairs. The toddler turned at the sound of the door opening and lost his balance. Sarah screamed his name and through her books and back pack running to catch her brother. Toby came down the steps squealing with glee. As Sarah held him close to her chest as she fell hard on her head. Quickly regaining composure she checked Toby to make sure he was okay. And found that the only one thing wrong with the little runt. "Toby if you don't stop squealing like that the neighbors are going to think we have a pig over here." She gave him a kiss and held him on her hip as she rubbed her head. "What were you doing climbing the stairs, Toby? You know that you're not allowed unless I'm with you." Toby looked at his sister and then to the man behind her.
"Bobin Ing!!" He squealed happily. Jareth stepped out from behind Sarah and smiled at the young child. Sarah looked at Jareth and smirked before rolling her eyes and turning back to the toddler.
"Toby where is your mommy and daddy?" She asked keeping her voice sweet and calm.
"Ommy and Addy eft. M wiff Illy." Toby said squirming to get out of Sarah's arms and into the Goblin Kings. Looking to Jareth she smiled and handed the boy over to him.
"You watch him for a minute I'm going to find his babysitter." Jareth looked a little stunned that she was ordering him to do something but was distracted when Toby started singing 'Magic Dance'. Jareth smiled and started to dance with the little tike as he sang with him.
Sarah smiled when she left them. She had never seen Toby so happy. And she wouldn't have ever thought that children would like Jareth. Oh well. 'I have to find that baby sitter.' "Hello Tilly are you here?" Turning the corner into the kitchen Sarah was greeted by the unfriendly face of Tilly. Sarah was about 5'3, Tilly was only just 5'4. Tilly had olive skin, brown eyes and red auburn hair. She was around Karen's age and one of her friends from school. And because of this she no more liked Sarah then Karen.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were supposed to be out." Tilly said grumpily.
"I came to drop off my stuff. Do you know where Toby is?" Sarah asked not caring if she seemed rude or spoiled.
"He's in the living room watching TV." Tilly answered with certainty.
"No he's not. He was climbing the stairs and nearly fell on his head." Sarah said getting a little loud. The look on Tilly's face said she understood. But the look in her eyes said that Sarah was in trouble. "The only reason that baby was in any danger is because you are still in this house." She said pushing past Sarah and moving to the hall way, where Toby sat on the steps clapping his hands and singing. Sarah followed Tilly with fire burning in her eyes.
"What the heck do you mean by that?" Sarah asked as Tilly stopped.
"You're a spoiled selfish child. You don't deserve Toby." Tilly eyed Sarah with disgust. "And you most definitely don't deserve your father's love or a woman like Karen as your step mother." The look in Tilly's eyes would say that she was hoping Sarah would break down and cry.
"Tilly. You're right I'm spoiled and selfish. I probably don't deserve Toby, but I plan on spending the rest of my life trying to. You, my father and Karen can all go to hell for all I care." Sarah smiled at Tilly's shocked face. "And you can tell them I said so."
Sarah had come home to put her stuff away in her room. But after her little 'spat' with Tilly, Sarah wanted nothing more than to be out of the house and away from her. She kissed Toby on the cheek and told him she would be home in time to tell him a story. Toby squealed again with delight and waved good bye to his sister and her invisible shadow.
Sarah walked for only a short time before she heard Jareth clear his throat readying to speak. Sarah braced herself. She wasn't sure what was coming. But she was worried that she wasn't going to be in a very good mood when she saw James. "Sarah who was that dreadful woman?" He asked sounding both bored and interested at the same time. Sarah shook her head to try and clear it.
"That is my 'aunt Tilly' she's Karen's best friend. She and I are the best of friends." Sarah said smiling slyly. Jareth gave a short chuckle.
"If that is how you speak to your friends then I can't understand how Hedwig liked you enough to go against my orders." He gave her a genuine smile when she laughed. She didn't bother correcting him. They were acting civil 'Why ruin it?'
"Tilly and Karen believe that everyone would be better off if I went to live my mother. They have my father convinced and are trying to convince my mother." Sarah's voice didn't hold sadness or fear, just the kind of understanding that Jareth didn't understand.
"You sound quite calm." He stated.
"Jareth," Sarah stopped and looked him in the eyes as she spoke. "If you would like to know something abut me ask." She didn't sound angry or even a little upset, just tired. Jareth looked at her his face void of emotion.
"Very well Sarah. Why don't you seem to mind that your father and mother want nothing to do with you?" He asked keeping his voice neutral. Sarah nodded.
"My father has been married to Karen for about 5 years. Before that it was just me and him." She started to walk again and he followed suit. "My father married her for two reasons he told me. First I needed a mother, I needed to have another parent to love me." Sarah made a very unladylike snort and continued. "And second because he loved her." She turned her head to Jareth but kept walking. "Before Karen came into my life I was the center of my father's life. I'm not going to say that I'm not spoiled and selfish because it would be a lie. I'm not perfect. No one is. But I did try with my step mother." Sarah paused for a moment. Looking both ways and crossing the street she thought again. 'This is what I mean. He asks a question and I answer. I open up to him like I've known him all my life.' Sarah looked at Jareth who seemed to be waiting for her to say something.
"Go on." He said, more a request then an order.
"I may not be the brightest or the prettiest but I can tell when I'm not wanted and Karen most certainly didn't and doesn't want me around. My father has been wrapped around her finger since the day he married her." Sarah looked at him and couldn't read anything in his face so she went on. "When I turned ten I was asked how I felt about living with my mother. I have always been a cheeky little spit fire, and this turned out be another reason why I should never be myself. I told her that I would rather eat her crummy food everyday for the rest of my life then see my mom ever again." She looked at Jareth who couldn't seem to keep the smirk off his face. "I'm glad you find it cute, cause she didn't. She told me that I was just what my mother said. I was spoiled, selfish, and stupid if I thought that I was going to get away with that little comment. I didn't fully realize that I had said something wrong. I thought I was being honest.
"She spent the next 3 months making all of the things that I hated . . . or was allergic too." Jareth looked confused by the word so she elaborated. "When someone is allergic to something it means that their body can't handle what ever it is. And the way the body tells you that it doesn't like it depends on how much it doesn't like it. I'm allergic to pineapples and pears. When I eat them my throat gets itchy and I can't breath properly. If I don't do something to stop the reaction my throat closes and I die because I can't breath." Jareth seemed to understand that.
"You mean to tell me that because you told her that you didn't care for her food, she decided to poison you?!" He seemed both shocked and upset at what Sarah had said.
"Well on night she made my favorite dinner. Roast chicken and garlic rice, what I thought was spiced apples and some vegetables. It wasn't until I took a bite of the spiced apples that I realized she had put pineapple juice in them." Sarah's voice grew cold and hate filled. "I took medicine to help me breathe and stop my throat from itching and told my dad what she had done." Though her voice was still cold and hate filled it also had a sadness that Jareth hadn't expected to hear. "He said he didn't believe me. I was probably an accident and that it would never happen again. I told him if it was an accident she would apologize for nearly killing me. He told me I was over reacting but agreed that she should apologize." Sarah stopped, being right in front of the pizza place where she would be meet James. "My father and I went into the kitchen where she was and Karen said that she didn't have to apologize for something she didn't do. My father told me to shake it off and left. When she was sure he wasn't coming back she added that she wasn't going to apologize for something she wasn't sorry for either." Sarah looked inside real quick to see if James was inside. 'Nope late again.' she thought. She looked at Jareth and gave a smile. "I'm not upset about my father and Karen trying to get rid of me because it's all I've really known. I'm not really wanted by either of my parents and I'm fine with that." Jareth looked at Sarah and his eyes narrowed.
He could tell that she wasn't lying. She really didn't care. Yes it upset her that her parent didn't want her. But she wasn't going to spend days crying over it. Jareth wondered if she already had. He watched her. She was looking for the James boy. She looked exited to be meeting her friend. Jareth smirked at the thought of her one day looking just as exited to see him.
"Hey Sarah, who's your friend?" James asked coming up to them.
"Hey James your late." Sarah said playfully.
"I know. I'm sorry I got caught up with my art. Sorry." He didn't look really sorry but Sarah didn't mind. She was only playing with him.
"It's alright James. You already agreed to pay for dinner so I'm not TOO upset." She said smiling.
"I thank her highness for the gift of her good graces . . . OW." He added as Sarah hit hard upside the head.
"I told you never to do that!" She said sounding a little upset.
"I'm sorry majesty I'll do my best to remember next time." He winked at her and Sarah couldn't do anything but hit him again. "Ok I'll stop. Now would you please stop hitting me and tell me who tall not so dark but really handsome is?" Sarah laughed a little at her friend and turned to Jareth.
"This is..." Sarah realized that she had no clue what to say, and was surprisingly great full when Jareth spoke up.
"Jareth King, pleasure to meet you." Jareth held out his hand which James took and gave a good firm shake. James looked at Jareth and suddenly gasped.
"You're the guy Sarah drew during art class today!!" James looked at Sarah, and smiled approvingly. Sarah rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"James as much as I'd like to hear what you think about every good looking guy I happen to know I have get over to 'The Underground' by 7:30. So do you think we could hurry this up a little?" She asked opening the door for him to go through. James looked at Sarah and walked into the pizza parlor Jareth holding the door so Sarah could go through next.
They sat at the table James first asking about why she was going to 'The Underground' then saying that he would join them. James acting like the protective big brother started to interrogate Jareth. James would ask a question and Jareth would act amused and answer to the best of his ability. After about 15 minutes the pizza that Sarah and James had ordered came along, along with their drinks. Jareth looked at the pizza and looked rather confused.
"What you've never had pizza?" James asked looking amused himself.
"No, I'm afraid I've never been fortunate enough." Jareth looked at Sarah his eyes asking the question that him mouth wouldn't. Sarah smiled at him encouragingly.
"It's a cheese and pepperoni pizza. Just try it before you decided whether you like it or not." She said placing a small slice on the plate in front of him. Jareth watched Sarah get a larger piece for herself. She held the large triangle and folded in half, still a triangular shape much easier to eat. Jareth watch amused as the two people in front of him started to eat and enjoy their meal. After a few bites Sarah looked at him and said. "Jareth either you stop acting like a four ear old and try it. Or..." Sarah realized what she was saying and who she was saying it too and lost her voice. Jareth raised and eye brown to her and smirked devilishly.
"Or what, Sarah?" He asked his voice thick with mocking. He was both surprised and pleased to see that Sarah wasn't going to back down.
"Jareth just try the damn pizza. If you don't like it I'm sure I can find something you would rather have." Sarah felt a chill run down her spine as Jareth spoke.
"I'm sure you could." The look in his eyes told Sarah they weren't talking about food any more. Sarah rolled her eyes and pointed to the food, trying her best to hide her discomfort. Jareth gave her a look that said this conversation WOULD be continued. He looked at the pizza and looked lost. James looked at Sarah and mouthed 'help him'. Sarah shook her head. And then gave in when she saw how lost he really did look.
"Here let me help you." Sarah stood and walked over to Jareth. Picking up the pizza she folded it in half and held it to his mouth. "Open." She said smiling. Jareth marveled in their closeness for a moment before doing as he was asked. Opening his mouth Sarah put the pizza in his mouth and he took a bite. Sarah took the pizza away and watched as he chewed. She could tell he was enjoying it. So she put the pizza down on his plate and sat back at hers. A little dizzy from being so close to him. 'What the heck is wrong with me that I can't stand next to the guy without my head getting fuzzy?' She didn't get an answer.
"Well what do you think?" James asked taking another slice for himself. Jareth opened his eyes and looked at them.
"It's not as horrid as I would have thought." Jareth picked up the pizza and took another bite. Meanwhile James looked at Sarah confused.
"That's his way of saying 'I like it' I suppose." She picked up her piece and finished it.
It didn't take them long to get to 'The Underground'. And by the time they got there it was full with people all waiting to hear Sarah sing. Sarah walked into the café both Jareth and James right behind her and was grabbed by Sam.
"Hey Sarah." Looking behind Sarah she saw Jareth and James. She motioned for them to follow. "You'll sit here. It's the table closest to the stage. And I'll get your order in a moment. Kay?" Jareth and James both nodded and sat down while Sarah was taken to the stage with Bobby the piano player. Sarah could play the piano and normally would give Bobby a break and play some. But tonight she knew he was more than willing to play all night long.
"Hey Sarah what song do you want to start with?" He smiled at her as she thought. In the end Sarah looked at Bobby and shrugged.
"Just pick something you know I can sing." She said smiling back at him. Bobby nodded and started to find the song he was going to play while Sarah stepped up to the mike.
"Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to 'The Underground' Café. My name is Sarah and I'll be your entertainment or torture," The crowed laughed at the joke. "for the evening. Sit back, relax and join in if you know the words." Sarah turned back to Bobby and nodded as the crowed applauded for the first time of the night.
Sarah wasn't surprised with what Bobby decided to play first 'Can't fight the moonlight' since it was one of his favorites. Sarah took a deep calming breath and started to sing...
"Under a lover's sky
Gonna be with you
And no one's gonna be around
If you think that you won't fall
We'll just wait until
Tell the sun goes down
Underneath the star light, star light
There's magical feeling' so right
It'll steal your heart tonight"
Sarah started to walk the stage, performing as best she could. The crowd was singing along with her and some even dancing.
"You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
You'll surrender your heart
But you know, but you that you
Can't fight the moonlight, no
You can't fight it
It's gonna get to your heart"
Sarah went into the second verse and Jareth was spell bound. She was magical. He watched as she started to move around the stage, her skirt moving to the rhythm of the song, with her body. It was now that Jareth noticed just how much a woman she looked. Her curves though subtle were there, her breasts though large for her age, were small for a grown woman. The outfit she wore did nothing to complement her hips. 'I'll have to find a dress that will do her justice'. He thought to himself. Her face was a delightful pink, her lips a deep rose red from her nervous biting, maintained a soft and sweet look. Like a fruit that was waiting to be devoured. Her hands small and delicate with some object in her grasp. But her eyes were what Jareth was finding difficult to ignore. The dark brown orbs seem to be holding a secret, one that Jareth was bound to figure out. The song ended and Jareth was oblivious until he heard the applause.
"Thank you." Sarah said, keeping her eyes purposefully away from Jareth. "Alright I hope that you guys are in the mood to dance." She said as the music started to play.
"Come on, shake you body baby,
do the conga "
Suddenly Sarah wasn't joined by just piano but the entire house band.
"I know you can't control yourself any longer.
Come on, shake your body baby,
do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger
Don't you fight it till you've tried it
Do the conga beat."
Jareth was watching the show. Sarah was comfortable on stage, her body moving to the music, her hips and voice following to the beat. Jareth was pulled away from the show when James started to speak to him.
"You know how long it took me to get her to understand that she was sexy enough to do these kinds of songs?" Jareth looked from James to Sarah then back to James.
"Has she not always been so confident?" Jareth asked looking completely fooled by her.
"No way!!" James said looking both pleased with him self and sad for Sarah. "She has always been self-conscious when she performs. Not because she isn't confident with her voice or her acting. She is the best I've seen." James lowered his voice so that if Jareth hadn't been Fae he wouldn't have heard. "It's because she's afraid she'll end up like her mother." Jareth looked at him dumbstruck.
"How could Sarah ever think that she would end up like that awful woman?" James looked confused and shocked.
"You know about Sarah's mother?!" Jareth looked at the boy as though you would a dog you wish would stop jumping up and down in front of you.
"And why may I ask wouldn't I know?" He asked his voice and gaze cold making James wish he would look away.
"I just can't believe that she told you. I've known Sarah since fourth grade. And she didn't tell me about her mother until eighth." James looked Jareth up and down he was glad that Sarah had found someone she trusted.
"I was unaware of that." Jareth said looking lost in thought. 'Why is Sarah telling me so much about herself? Does she really trust me that much already?' Jareth turned back to Sarah and listened and watched as she finished the song.
Sarah finished and the crowed burst into applause, Jareth and James readily joining in. Sarah looked as though she were enjoying herself. She bowed to the crowed and clapped to the band. One of the band members walked up to Sarah and whispered something in her ear.
"Sarah what do you think about singing a duet?" The guy's name was Will. He was the lead guitar of the band and had an amazing singing voice. Sarah thought of him as a big brother. Since every time she had a problem with a guy he said he's pulverize the guy for her. Sarah looked at Will and smiled.
"What song did you have in mind?" She didn't really get an answer from him. He just winked and counted off.
"One, two, one, two, three, four." The band started to play a song that Sarah absolutely adored. And found strangely fitting, Will started the song.
Will: If I could turn back time.
If I could find a way.
Sarah: I'd take back those words that've hurt you
And you'd stay
It didn't go unnoticed by Jareth or James that Sarah kept her eyes on Jareth as she sang.
Will: I don't know why I did the things I did
I don't know why I said the things I said
Sarah: Love's like a knife it can cut deep inside
Word's are like weapons, they can wound sometimes
Will/Sarah: I didn't really mean to hurt you
I didn't wanna see you go
I know I made you cry, but baby...
Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars
I'd give them all to you
And you'd love me, love me, like you used to do
James kept quiet but watched the looks that Sarah and Jareth seemed to be throwing back and fourth to each other. 'Interesting' James thought to himself with a smile.
Sarah: If I could turn back time
My world was shattered, I was torn apart
Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart
Will: You walked out that door I swore that I didn't care
But I lost everything darling then and there
Sarah/Will: Too strong to tell you I was sorry
Too proud to tell you I was wrong
I know I was blind, but darling...
Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars
I'd give them all to you
And you'd love me, love me, like you used to do
Will/Band: If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
Will/Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars
I'd give them all to you
And you'd love, love me, like you used to do
It didn't go unnoticed by the band that Sarah was singing the song with more conviction then she ever had before, as though she was begging someone to forgive her for something. They were right she was. Sarah didn't know why she was doing it. But she was asking Jareth to forgive her for what she had said and done.
Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars
I'd give them all to you
And you'd love me, love me, like you used to do"
Pause for breath and just enough time for Sarah to get her message across. Jareth was just starting to understand that she was asking him to forgive what she'd done. And he wasn't sure if he could.
Sarah/Will: If I could turn bak time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
and you'd stay
If I could reach the stars I'd give'em all to you
and you'd love me, love me. Like you used to do
Sarah: Ahhh...
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
If I could turn back time
Ahhh baby...
I didn't really mean to hurt you
I didn't wanna see you go
I know I made you cry, but oh
Will/Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that've hurt you
If I could reach the stars
I'd give them all to you
and you'd love me, love me, like you used to do
Sarah: If I could turn back time
If I could find a way
and maybe, maybe you'd stay
If I could reach the stars
Will/Sarah: I'd give them all to yoooouuuuuu..."
Sarah and Will finished the song and both were completely out of breath but smiling like Cheshire cats. Will announced that Sarah would be taking a short break but while they waited for her to come back the band would play. The crowed applauded Sarah as she made her way to Jareth and James. Glad that James had ordered a soda for her. Sarah wouldn't meet Jareth's eyes and wouldn't speak. James was the first to break the silence.
"Alright Sarah, spill." He said almost a command.
"Spill what?" Sarah asked looking at him with confusion.
"You know what." James said looking at her sternly. Causing Sarah to smile amused.
"I'm sure I don't know what your talking about?" Sarah said looking amused.
"Not happening Sarah Williams. You might be able to throw other people off your scent with the half-truths and riddles, but not me. So spill who were you singing that song too?" James asked outright knowing that she didn't and wouldn't lie.
Sarah thought about it for a moment. She still hadn't looked at Jareth she wasn't sure what she would see if she did. Would he be mocking her, would he be smiling, would he be there at all? Sarah looked up and saw his eyes filled with wonder. She stared at him for the longest time. Answering James' question she walked back to the stage. As she walked away James laughed.
"I don't know what you've done to her," He said to Jareth. "But you had better not hurt her." Jareth smirked at the words of the mortal boy. 'I wonder if he would say that if he knew what I am?' Jareth smirked deeper at the thought.
"You have nothing to fear James. I would never let any harm come to her." Jareth was shocked by his words. He hadn't meant to say them but they were true none the less. James nodded and both Jareth and James watched the rest of Sarah's show.
It was somewhere around 11:30. The café would close soon. And Sarah had been singing just about all night. She was out of breath, sweating, tired, and loving every minute of it. It was the last song of the night and she always sang the same one. Turning to the band she nodded, turning back to the audience she said "Its almost time for me to say goodnight. But before I go I would like to sing one last song. If you know the words join in and you have someone to love sing to them." Sarah nodded to the band one more time and the music started to play.
"And I'd give up forever to touch you to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You are the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am"
Sarah kept her gaze locked on the back wall of the café. Not wanting to look at anyone while she sang. She was going to have a fun time with this song. It was her favorite. Jareth watched her. She was lost in the song. It no longer seemed like she was singing with her voice but with her heart.
The song broke for the solo instruments and Sarah couldn't help but look at Jareth. She looked through the darkness of the café, he seemed to be lost in thought or the song or both. He was watching the stage with a look of question in his eyes. She smiled and finished the song.
" And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am"
Sarah bowed and looked back to the table where James now sat alone, clapping. At first Sarah was worried. She looked around the room confused, and nearly screamed when she felt someone wrap strong arms around her waist. The person whispered into her ear, making her body tingle.
"I know who you are." Sarah turned and smiled at Jareth. She couldn't think of anything to say. She wasn't sure how she felt about him but she knew that she didn't want to think of life without anyone from the underground.
Darkaldy: Alright I know that alot of you are going "YAAY!!" But you probably won't be next chapter.
Sarah: Yeah, believe me. The next chapter is pretty dark and LOOOOONNNNNNNNG!!!
Jareth: Forgive me Lady. I have behaved like a Goblin and though I am King of them. I should know better. Please forgive my rudeness. (Kisses Lady's hand and moves to speak with Sarah)
Darklady: (Runs to Ly's side and whispers) What did you say to him?
Ly: (Kisses Lady's forehead) Nothing that you need know of. But I have a feeling that Jareth will come when you call from now on.
Darklady: Alright I guess . . . Umm . . . everyone else I'll see you next time. But Sarah and I were telling the truth chapter 9 has about four parts . . . maybe more. And will be rather dark. I will warn you now and at the beginning of each part. GRAPHIC CONTENT!! PAST RAPE!!! RAPE!!! ABUSE!!!
Turn back while you still can.
