Chapter 8 Back in the Labyrinth

Sarah knew that she was back in the labyrinth because of the peace she felt in her surroundings and looked up and saw Jareth looking at her worried.

"Sarah are you okay I know how hard that was for you to do what you did?" asked Jareth.

"I am fine I just wish that it could have been different our meeting. I knew it was you watching me in the park before I went back home and saw what had happened," replied Sarah.

"Yeah no one should see that in their life and now I have someone who would want to see you. You there go fetch Hoogle," commanded Jareth.

"Jareth his name is Hoggle you know that," replied Sarah as the goblin went to go fetch Hoggle.

"Yeah but I just feel like it today and… ah Hoggle I have a friend of yours that would love to see you," replied Jareth as he stepped aside and let Hoggle see Sarah.

"Sarah what a won… what is wrong?" asked Hoggle.

Sarah went ahead and told him everything that happened and ended up crying and passing out. Jareth luckily caught her.

"Maybe it was a little too hard of a subject for her to be talking about it," thought Hoggle sadly.

"HOGGLE get over here I need you to open the doors while I carry Sarah to her chambers since it seems she is going to be staying with us for a while," told Jareth a little annoyed that Hoggle wasn't paying attention.

"Sorry your majesty I was just thinking that we could probably get Sarah to feel a little better about being here," said Hoggle.

"Really what is that you are thinking in your dwarf brain?" asked Jareth.

"Well I was thinking that we could bring her dog Merlin here to the castle. If that is alright with you your majesty?" asked Hoggle.

"What a fantastic idea Hoggle I am surprised that you thought of it," replied Jareth impressed.

Jareth than summoned a crystal and summoned the dog Merlin right in front of him and Hoggle.

"Whoa um nice doggy, good doggy, here boy," said Hoggle a little nervous of the dog.

Jareth was amused about how the dog went up to Hoggle licked him and then sat down in front of Sarah's bedroom door and didn't move a muscle. When he was satisfied that Sarah would be fine he made his way back to the throne room. It would be around another two hours before Sarah would wake up.

"Your majesty I have come to report that the stupid human wench has woken up," replied the goblin pleased with how he addressed Sarah. That is until Jareth stood up and grabbed him.

"NEVER call Sarah that again UNDERSTAN! For if you do it will be STRAIGHT TO THE BOG OF STENCH BEFORE YOU CAN BLINK!" yelled Jareth.

The goblin bowed and apologized over and over until Jareth dismissed him and went to go see Sarah himself with Hoggle tagging along.

"Sir you know the bog of stench is currently um how shall we say it not working properly why did you use that on the guard?" asked Hoggle.

"You know that and I know that but he doesn't what great leverage to keep them doing what I want them to do right," replied Jareth with a smirk.

Hoggle just rolled his eyes and continued walking with Jareth to Sarah's room. First he had to dodge Merlin and then ended up climbing up onto Sarah's bed. Sarah, who had just woken up, laughed a little on her bed.

"Sarah I have a little surprise for you. You boys can come in and even the other dog," announced Jareth.

Just then Sir Didymus and Ludo came walking in with a big grin on their face. Sarah beamed with happiness and ran towards them but didn't get far for her legs didn't support her and Jareth caught her.

"Careful Sarah you just went threw one awful experience and I want you to take it easy today," requested Jareth.

"Indeed my lady you must rest I will protect you from everything," bowed Sir Didymus.

"Sawah friend of Ludo. Ludo protect," said Ludo.

"Sarah this reminds me I have a gift for you I made it last time you were here I just never got around to giving it to you," replied Jareth as he took something out of his pocket.

"OHHH OH MY GOSH Jareth it is beautiful!" gasped Sarah.

It was a necklace that had a big Diamond in the middle most part that dangled down that was surrounded by Rubies and sparkled at the smallest movement.

"I am glad you like here I will put it on for you," said Jareth as he put the necklace around her neck and clamped it together.

Then Sarah did something he didn't expect her to do. She turned around and threw herself into Jareth's arms.

"What should I do she is hugging me. Well of course idiot I should hug her back. Here she is in my arms free of will and I am standing still like a dead fish," thought Jareth and put his arms around her.

They stayed like that for hours on end until it had come time to eat and they enjoyed each other's company until night.

(How was that I hope I did a better job on the paragraphing this is the first fanfic I have tried this with.)
