Sarah realized that Halloween was coming fast. She and the goblins really like the holiday. Jareth did not mind the Halloween at all. She got the goblins to decorate the castle for Halloween. The goblins did a good job of it. The castle was really spooky.
Sarah decided that she was going to pull a prank on Jareth on Halloween. She had to decide what kind of prank to pull on him. She had a hard time coming up with one. Finally, she got an idea for a prank.
Sarah went aboveground and got a pair of glass doors from a glass store. She then took the glass doors very carefully back to the underground so she would not break them. When she got back there she cleaned the doors with magic so that it looks like there is no glass at all. Then she put a spell on the doors so that a fresh breeze could be felt coming form them. Jareth would feel the breeze but not see the doors so that if he investigates he will run into the doors.
Sarah set the pair of glass doors at one end of the throne room when Jareth was not around. It took awhile to set up the doors for the prank. When Sarah was done, she checked to see if it was done right. It was just perfect.
Jareth came into his throne room, because he had heard a funny sound coming from it. When he got there all that was in the room was Sarah. Even the goblins were not around. That was strange for there was at least some goblins. She was not doing anything that would have made those sounds. It was then that Jareth noticed a fresh breeze coming from her direction. He walked toward Sarah, but then he had bumped into something. He put his hands out and felt something, but what it was he did not know. It was this something that the breeze was coming from. He realized that he had run into glass doors.
"Sarah did you put these glass doors that which I could not see, but ran into just now. Is this another of your pranks." asked Jareth.
Sarah just smiled, and did not say anything at all. She just walked away from him and disappeared.
Jareth knew it was a prank. He made a crystal and threw at the glass doors and they disappeared then he went to look for Sarah but he could not find her anywhere. Sarah had gone aboveground for a while to enjoy Halloween on her own. She did not want to hang around the castle, because she did not know how Jareth felt about the prank she pulled on him.
Meanwhile Jareth went aboveground and found Sarah watching children going trick or treating. He silently walked up to her and said boo. Sarah jumped and turned around and saw who said boo to her.
"You startled me Jareth." Sarah said.
Jareth just smiled at her, and said nothing. He grabbed her and took her back to the underground. He then played his own prank on Sarah in their bedroom. That prank turned out very well.
A/N: The idea for this prank came from Satan'sPixie.
