Chapter 2

Sarah awoke to the sound of his voice, the voice of the Goblin King or so she thought, as always when she opened her eyes he wasn't there. She pulled herself out of bed and moved over to a darkened corner of the room to look down at the face of her son still sound asleep in his crib.

Jareth re-materialized in his throne room, a smirk playing on his lips. "So she hasn't forgotten about me." He pulled a crystal out of the air and once again saw Sarah. She had her back to him bending over something, not that he minded the view but he would rather see her face so he concentrated and the view shifted.

She was leaning over a crib, why would she be near a baby? Toby was far too old to sleep in a cot. He concentrated harder and could hear what she was saying to the child.

"And how is my little Jay today? Ready to spend the day with Mommy?" There was a fond smile playing on her lips.

Jareth could feel the rage building within him. Sarah had a son, a child that wasn't his, that was a trespass that he found unforgivable, one that Sarah would be severely punished for.

He grabbed the first goblin that strayed too near to his now enraged person and lifted him up to just below eye level to give instructions, "Get me those three traitors," at the goblins witless look he clarified, "the ones that girl turned against me." He snarled, drop kicking the goblin to the far side of the room where he hit the wall just beside the door.

A small titter ran through the rest of the goblins but they knew their Kings new moods far too well. Jareth had changed in the nine years since the girl had won Toby back, he never sang or danced any more and he certainly never laughed. The goblin that the King had kicked quickly shook himself off and ran out the door before the King could complain that he was taking too long.

Jareth sprawled out over his throne quietly seething and imaging the tortures he was going to put Sarah through. The other goblins in the throne room recognized the dark mood the King was in and saw the black clouds that sprang from no where outside the window, and rolled outwards, covering the skies above the labyrinth, they quietly abandoned the throne room, Jareth didn't even notice.

Sarah left her New York apartment with her son well protected from the winter chill in his pram and walked him to central park. It wasn't the magical park of her home town but it was close enough to feel connected to the imaginative child she'd been when she ran the labyrinth, instead of the well organised, busy actress and mother.

She still thought back to those days before her time in the underground with embarrassment at the way she'd treated Karen and Toby even the way she'd treated her Father. She looked down at the six month old child in the pram, with his dark curls and ocean blue eyes, know that she could never wish him away.

From the first time she'd laid eyes on him Sarah was entranced, he was the angel that had lifted her out of the private depression that she'd felt since she'd left home to pursue her career. Sarah had triumphed in every role she'd attempted, on Broadway, on TV, even the few film roles she that she had accepted had won her accolades, awards and public recognition, but her personal life had been empty. No man could ever match up to her ideal and he had never returned.

As always the snickering she heard from the bushes disturbed her quiet reverie and she quickly moved on away from what was either a constant goblin escort or a serious psychological problem, She found herself wishing she could talk to Hoggle, Didymus and Ludo, not that she expected many answers from the orange beast , but that connection only seemed to work in her old room in the Victorian house, her family home.

Gathering her coat around her to ward off the sudden chills she felt Sarah slowly turned the pram around and walked back towards her apartment, Jay would need his lunch soon.

Jareth looked at two of his least favourite subjects. The dwarf, Hoggle, and the one eyed Knight, Sir Didymus. Ludo hadn't understood the summons and was still wandering around in the forrest, a squad of goblin soldiers had been sent to escourt him to the castle.

"So Hogwart," The Goblin King began, putting on his most imposing sneer and raising on of his already beautifully upswept eyebrows.

"Its Hoggle!" the little man corrected, already angry at being in the kings presence.

"When was the last time you spoke to that girl?" Jareth continued as if the interruption hadn't occurred.

"A year or so ago, when she visited her family and the boy, Your Majesty." He answered truthfully, not wishing to see the inside of the king dungeon again.

"And did she have any big news for you then?"

"No Sire," Sir Didimus chimed in, "My Lady only discussed the usual information, about her work, how her family was, how big the young master Toby was getting. A trip to see a relative of her mothers later that month."

"She never mentioned anything about a family of her own?" The King demanded his mismatched gaze boring into Sarah's closest friends.

"No she ain't never mentioned nothing like that." Hoggle lied, covering a secret that Sarah had revealed during a conversion years ago, knowing that, as a knight of the old code, Didymus would have to answer with the truth.

"Then you have never seen her son? A child of six months old with his mothers dark hair?" He continued not trusting the dwarf's answer when he saw the fox's whiskers twitch.

The blank and disbelieving look on their faces was enough to convince him though. Hoggle looked the most shocked, Jareth could see the little scabs brain working in over drive to try and figure out how it was possible that Sarah hadn't told him.

"Then you both are free to go, but if I find that you have been lying to me I will be cruel." He didn't even wait for them to leave he swept out of the door and up the stairs that led to what remained of the room Sarah had destroyed on her last visit to his castle.

Hoggle and Didymus spent a moment in silence getting over their shock before rushing out of the throne room, knowing they had to get to a mirror and fast. They had to warn Sarah, she and the Child were in danger.
