Sadly I do not own the labyrinth...If I did it would have ended differently.
It was late,nearly midnight,and Sarah sat up in her bed reading.The golden watch sat on her lap,Sarah had not been able to figure it out yet.Outside it was raining,pouring.And lightning flashed every now and then.The clock downstiairs suddenly wrang 12,and then the golden watch began to ring as well,it seemed to be sending out a signal.Sarahs eyes went wide and she flew to the windows in an attempt to lock them.But it was no use,the windows flew open as the large white owl pushed against them.Sarah fell on her bottom and silently cursed.Jareth changed to his usual form and extended him hand to Sarah
"Sarah,my Sarah,did you need some help?" He asked with a smirk.
Sarah glared at him and pushed herself up "What do you want Jareth?" She spat his name out like it was something vile and disgusting in her mouth.
"Why Sarah,don't tell me you've forgotten already? It is our fifth anniversary today."
Sarah pushed herself farther away and gave him a look;if looks could kill Jareth would have fallen to the ground dead. "Leave.",
Jareth completely ignored Sarah,he walked around her and sat on the edge of her bed."Now,now Sarah,is that any kind of welcome?" He smiled "and how is Tobdy? I hear he is a smart little boy,must come from spending 13 hours with yours truly."
Jareth loved how Sarah squirmed when he mentioned her brother.
"You didn't come here just to chat,Spill it,and talk fast.I'm tired."
"Tell me Sarah,how have your dreams been?",
Sarah raised her hand to slap him but Jareth cought her wrist.He stared at the Watch,"Ah,I see you got it."
Sarah wrenched her wrist from his grasp and stared at it herself,she did not remember putting it on.
"Magic Sarah,magic." Sarah turned her head to meet eyes with Jareth,There it was,the look,from her dream.
"But you were right Sarah," Jareth got up and moved closer "I did not come here just to talk.I came to make you an offer;you try and defeat my labyrinth once more…"
"No way," Sarah protested,"I already beat it,and as far as I know I haven't wished away any more babies so…"
"And if you win I take away the dreams."
Sarah froze,was he serious? He would stop tormenting her? "And if I lose?"
Jareth leaned in very close,he smiled an evil smile,"You become my wife,stay with me in the labyrinth,and bear me a son."
Sarah looked away,was it worth it? Would she risk becoming Jareths wife,to get rid of her nightmares? "Fine." 'I've beaten it once,I can do it again' Sarah turned to see an silly grin on Jareths lips 'hes keeping something from me.' ,But before Sarah could say anything,she and Jareth were staring before the labyrinth.
"You know what to do" Jareth instructed,sounding very bored,"Get to the centre before the 13 hours are up.That," He pointed to the watch "Should help,and believe me,you are going to need all the help you can get!" And with a puff of smoke Jareth was gone,Leaving Sarah alone.
'but not for long," she thought "first to find Hoggle."
Unknown to Sarah,Hoggle,Ludo and sir didymus,Were in the dungeon below the castle for this special event.This rematch between Jareth and Sarah was known about by every creature in the underground.Most were ruiting for Jareth,expecially the goblins,him being their king.And only a few here and there actually believed that sarah could defeat the labyrinth again without any help,and the special changes Jareth made here and there.The only ones more excited than the rest about the event were the Fae,Jareth being of their kind.They wanted to see if a human really could defeat a Fae.
Jareth sat on his thrown surrounded by lots of messy,loud Goblins.A crystal ball in his hand which he was using to watch Sarah.She was nearing the Bog of eternal stench,maybe,he should pay her a visit.He didn't want his wife to smell bad after all.
Toby nocked softly on Sarahs bedroom door.He had heard something not too long ago,it had sounded like Sarah and a man arguing.Sarah didn't answer,and it was the third time Toby had nocked.Toby
pushed open the door slightly and called out to her "Sarah,Sarah are you there?" He looked around,he didn't see anyone.He pushed the door completely open and walked inside,she was definitely not here.Toby looked around the room and saw something shining in the moonlight,he walked over to it and picked it up,it was a small glass orb;crystal in fact.Toby inspected it,he remembered something like this,but where was it from? And did it involve Sarahs disappearance?
A 'Plink pink plink" sound caused Sarah to turn around,there,rolling down the steps was one of the crystal orbs Jareth had.Sarah was about to turn around when none other than Jareth himself came around the corner.
"I wouldn't go that way if I were you."
Sarah rolled her eyes and laughed at him "Why? Because it leads straight to your castle?"
"More like the bog of eternal stench."
Sarah put her hands on her hips and sighed,"And where then,should I go?"
Jareth relaxed his shoulders a bit,trying to look as if he didn't care what happened,But it only made his white poets shirt open up more.Sarah had to keep her eyes up'No,no you will not look.'
"Why should I tell you? What do I get out of it?"
He asked "That depends,what do you want?" Sarah asked,
Jareth raised an eyebrow at her "I think you know." He smirked as Sarah made a disgusted face at him,
"I'd rather take my chances with the bog of eternal stench! At least there I have Sir didymus."
Jareth began to laugh like a madman "Have fun with that then Sarah." He blew her a kiss and vanished with a puff of smoke.
"Whats his problem?" Sarah shrugged and turned back to the path she was already was taking.Unaware that with his blown kiss Jareth had already changed it, After all,he could not have his wife smelling bad for the rest of eternitity! But Sarah didn't know that,nor would she expect the challenge,and gift she was about to receive.
Now,Sarah wasn't stupid,far from it actually.But she was a little preoccupied with trying to get rid of her annoying dreams and not become Jareths wife to realize that she had just walked into a trap…
A/N:BEWARE OF THE ROSES,They are untrustworthy.
Anyways,Second chappie,Bah,not bad for someone who writes at 2AM Lol.
