"I have to go there!" Amy said quickly as she looked through a crystal at Sarah. Amy hadn't liked Carl, at all, but seeing how upset Sarah was broke her heart. "I have to see if she's ok!"
"No Amy. You cant" Wyatt said, the sadness clear in his voice. He didn't want to make Amy upset but he knew that without Sarah asking for her, Amy couldn't go there.
"But I cant just leave her Wyatt. She needs me"
"If she needs you she'll ask for you, you know that my love. Those are the rules." He put his arms around her, but she pushed him away.
"Screw the rules! Im going to help her!"
Before Wyatt could stop her, Amy had disappeared.

Sarah was finally going back to the flat, although she wasn't sure se wanted to. Everything had changed now. Without Carl, the flat wasn't her home. It was just somewhere she was staying.
She had nowhere else to go.
She had no one.
It was late when she got back to the flat building, so there was no one around. The lobby was empty and so were all the corridors. Sarah was glad of this. No one could see her tears.
The key shook in her hand as she tried to open the door. She managed to hold it still long enough to get it in the lock and opened the door.
Silence greeted her. It was too quiet. She hadn't really noticed earlier, she had made herself busy. But now it overwhelmed her.
She went up the stairs and into their room. Her room now. She picked up Carls pillow and led on the bed, holding it close to her. It still smelt like him. She was all alone and she couldn't stop the tears from flowing. She thought there would be no tears left, but there were. She cried herself to sleep, and tried to think of Carl.
--
"Sarah"
Sarah heard her name being called and stirred from sleep.
"Sarah"
Who was calling her? There was no one else in the flat.
"Sarah"
She sat up on the bed and stared at the open door. It was coming from downstairs. She got off the bed quietly and grabbed a wine bottle that had been placed near the door. She still hadn't got round to cleaning up after the party, but at the moment she had other things to worry about.
"Sarah"
There it was again. Getting louder as she descended down the stairs. She had the bottle held up in front of her as she pushed the door at the bottom of the stairs open…
"Sarah!"
She dropped the bottle and it made a resounding smash as it hit the floor.
Amy.
Amy.
Amy!
"Sarah, Im so sorry about what happened. And I just thought you might need a friend" Amy said, putting her arms around Sarah. Sarah was still, frozen with her eyes wide.
"You…You cant be here. Your not real" She whimpered, pushing Amy's arms away.
"Sarah I am real" Amy said, taking Sarah's hand and putting it on her own cheek. "See. Im real, flesh and blood."
"But…you left. You were gone…and I thought you were dead. That man, that horrible man took you away"
"He's not horrible Sarah. Anyway, I came to see how you are, not to talk about me"
"How I am?" Sarah said, her voice rising with anger and sadness. "How I am?! How the fuck do you think I am?! Ive just lost the one person in the world that means anything to me! My boyfriend, my best friend! What am I supposed to feel Amy?! Should I be glad that now you have shown up to torment me? To remind me of my past? You have no idea what I felt like when you were taken away do you?"
"Sarah don't do this, you'll only make yourself feel worse. Let me get you something to eat, what do you want?"
"I don't want anything. Just go away" Sarah turned to leave but found herself sat at the table.
"Oh no you don't, Ive been through this with him already, you will eat something or you'll make yourself ill"
"I don't care!" Sarah ran out of the room and back up the stairs into her room. She slammed the door, and locked it and then threw herself on the bed.
When Sarah looked up from the pillow moments later, Amy was stood next to the bed.
"Sarah you cant live like this, Im taking you back with me."
"Wha…?" Before she had chance to argue about it, Amy had taken Sarah away. She found herself in a huge room on a canopy bed. "Where am I?" She said drowsily, her eyes beginning to drop.
'Why do I feel so tired?'
"Sleep." Amy ordered, pulling the quilt over Sarah. "You'll feel better in the morning"
Within seconds, Sarah was asleep.

Amy appeared in Wyatt's throne room just moments after Wyatt. He looked shocked to see her there, but quickly pulled her close to him when he saw the look on her face. She looked lost. "I told you it was a bad idea. You cant do anything for her, and now its made you feel terrible" He sat down on the throne and pulled her onto his lap. She loved this because she could tuck herself next to him with his arms around her and she felt safe.
"But I can do something for her. She's here now so I can look after her."
"Sarah's here? But that really isn't a good plan, Jareth arrives any moment. He's coming to stay. Remember?"
Amy got up and stood in front of Wyatt. "Yes I remember, but I don't care. She has as much right to be here as he does."
"But Amy she hates him, as soon as she see's him she will wish herself home and you wont be able to help her. I don't like seeing you upset me love but we have no other choice here. Sarah must go home."
"She doesn't."
"Doesn't what?"
"Hate him. She doesn't hate him. Quite the opposite in fact." Suddenly realising what she had said she covered her mouth, not wanting to reveal more.
But from the look on Wyatt's face, she had already said enough. "Then this is perfect!"
Amy giggled. "I know!"
"We can make them both feel better now. Jareth gets Sarah back and Sarah…well I don't think you can replace someone you love that much. I think this will just be a time away from everything."
"She didn't love him. He was her best friend really, her only real friend. But she missed Jareth. There's just something about her at the moment, she knows she needs someone, and she will call on him eventually. We just have to give her time. She'll get over this."
"I do hope your right my love" Said Wyatt, planting a tender kiss on her forehead. He smiled as he looked down at her. His gorgeous wife.

Sarah tossed and turned in her sleep. She was dreaming but she wasn't sure what it was about. Everything was a blur. She tried looking harder at it, and noticed she was running. Where was she going? What was she doing?
There were walls all around her, turning different ways and meeting dead ends. She was in a Labyrinth.
She turned another corner and saw a baby in the path. The baby was wearing blue and white stripped pyjamas and looked familiar. She moved closer and picked up the baby.
"Toby?" She exclaimed, pulling him close to her. She looked around her and watched as the scenery changed. she was now in a dirty room, with a huge chair at one end, and a hole in the middle. The room was empty, but she could hear laughter. She walked to the window and looked out, over what looked like a city. She looked down into the streets and saw things there.
Goblins?
"The castle beyond the Goblin City?" She said to herself, looking at Toby, then back into the room. "Throne room? The Goblin King?" She was remembering everything from her past, it flooded back to her.
She turned around and found herself in a different place again. She was at the top off a hill looking down on the Labyrinth before her. "You have…Sarah?!"
Sarah turned around and looked into the miss-matched eyes of Jareth. She smiled and threw her arms around him. He tensed for a moment, but then wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close to him.
"Sarah" He whispered, his head buried in her neck. "You came back to me?"
"Yes. I came back to you!"
