Sarah was trying with all her might to push her father from her yet he seemed to be shaking her shoulders calling her name to wake up. I am awake she thought. Finally he let go of her and she knew this was her chance; she leapt out form the bed as quickly as she could. She found the corner of the room and she just crouched down knowing she could never win against him. She looked up ready to face her enemy, ready to go with dignity. There standing in front of her was Jareth?
The door burst open to find Edward, Jareth's counsel bursting in completely in shock. 'What's happened? I heard screams…Oh My Fae of Fudge! All that blood.' He was lost for a moment.
'Her dreams did this to her' Jareth spoke quietly not to alarm Sarah but he needed to get to her she was loosing a lot of blood. Jareth couldn't wait any longer he took each step with caution he didn't want to frighten her anymore than she was.
She was crying, crying in pain and fear. She was huddling in the corner still cowering at her attacker who was no longer there. Jareth knelt down beside her and gently scooped her in his arms while his lips were muttering some words not knowledgeable to the English language. He slowly lifted her up and turned to look at Edward. 'I want a healer in my chambers NOW!' with that he evaporated from the room, Edward following afterwards.
Jareth appeared right next to the bed; he laid Sarah down on his bed as she was drifting in and out of consciousness. He took hold of her hand in his she was icy cold but not deathly cold. He still didn't understand what had happened back in her room he shivered with the images of his beautiful angel…the blood. No sort that out later HEAL HER! His mind was screaming at him. He looked at Sarah's pale face; he carefully placed a hand just above her face like he had done back in the apartment Aboveground. Slowly the blood from her nose was gone and any signs of bruises were cleared. He looked down at her face as a small tear left his eye and landed on her cheek.
This seemed to stir Sarah out of her slumber, she opened her eyes for a moment before they closed again, and she was unconscious again. Jareth examined her arms with his eyes he could not heal them properly they were far too deep even for his magic. He used his hand to slowly lift her top up just above her belly button; the area was all red with the force that was used against her. Jareth turned away from her to shed another tear when he heard the door to his chamber open and a little stout man entered carrying a small case and a little blue book. 'Your majesty' said the little dwarf and gave a small bow to the Goblin King. 'No need for the necessities Darwin, hurry and heal her I cant bare her to be in any more pain…could you also do something about her dreams maybe just stop them for a few nights?'
'Of course your majesty.' Darwin replied and hurried to the other side of Sarah and began the long process of healing her. Jareth didn't leave her side, he held on to her hand that was slowly regaining its warmth. He was still; worried for her and Darwin had noticed this. 'Your majesty could you leave us alone for a moment I just want to check her over fully to make sure I heal every physical injury.' Jareth just nodded, he placed a small kiss on Sarah's hand and walked towards and out the door closing it behind him.
The healer worked for a couple of hours, he had healed the marks on her abdomen and the cut on the back of her head. He finally turned to the many cuts on her arm slowly leaking trails of blood, some of them were very deep others more scratches where the knife had just caught her. He waved his hand over them one by one small silver threads sewed up the wounds and then once closed the thread disappeared to leave no trace of the wounds. Darwin made a final check and when he was satisfied with his work he opened his small case and pulled a little pink bottle from it. He opened his blue book to the correct page; double checked the instructions and he uncorked the little bottle with his sharp teeth. He placed the bottle just above Sarah's hair and two small drops fell into her hair. Darwin mumbled something in a foreign language like Jareth had earlier. He looked at Sarah he was satisfied with what he had done and he packed up his things and headed for the door.
On the other side of the door Darwin found Jareth slumped on the floor head in his hands. 'I am finished your majesty.' Jareth shot to his feet.
'Thank you Darwin. Do you need to see her again?' The little dwarf paused for a moment in thought, 'She seems fine now I will check in on her in a couple of days then we can decide if she needs another dose of the dream prevention potion.' Jareth nodded and the little dwarf bowed once again and he hurried off down the corridor.
Jareth looked as the dwarf rounded the corner before he entered his room. As he walked in he could not take his eyes off her, she looked peaceful. He resumed his position in the chair her hand in his. The warmth of her hand eased Jareth's mind, she was alright. He started to ponder; thoughts crossing his mind of why her dreams turned to reality. He couldn't make a final decision because he drifted off in to a dreamless sleep.
