"There is one last thing, Jareth."
He turned to the pale skinned woman, still slightly in shock that the woman was his mother. "What else is there? I have the map, just have to pick up the ritual ingredients, and get to the location before 2 weeks in up and I will have my magic back."
"You will get to the location swiftly, but I must warn you that Cianan will try everything to stop you. I fear that he will call upon the last of his followers to aid him. That is why he must not know that you are doing this."
Dread filled his very being. "Well, how do we keep him from finding out?"
She smiled sadly at him, shaking her head at him. "I do not know, my son."
"I can help you with that." A small voice giggled.
Jareth turned and gasped.
There a little girl stood, with beautiful dark brown hair wearing a pretty blue dress. Her green eyes shimmered with a wisdom far beyond her seemingly young appearence. No, it cannot be.
His voice caught when he tried to speak, so he cleared his throat and tried once again, managing a strained, "Anna?"
The little girl shook her head. "I'm not Anna. I just took a more comfortable appearence for your sake. I do not think you would like to see my true form right now Goblin King."
"But, how did-"
"I am sorry, but we do not have time for chitchat. We are running out of time. Sarah has gone back to retrieve your body and Cianan is still there."
Anger burned through his veins like fire. "Damn him! If he lays one hand on her, I swear he will pay for it with his life!"
He was startled by the touch of a hand on his arm. He looked down as the Anna look-alike smiled up at him.
"There will be plenty of time for that after you get your magic back. Now, Velaria, you must go and retrieve Sarah and her friends. Take her to her home."
As his mother slowly disappated from the air, he turned to the Anna look-alike once again, a question falling from his lips. "What about me or should I say my body?"
"No need for it. If Cianan has it, he will not think twice about the denizens of Underground rising up against him. Gives you more time this way."
That made sense to him in a strange sort of way, but it still shocked him that he would not be inhabiting his body anytime soon.
"Wait, where are we going? Will I even be able to touch anything? Will I be solid enough to?" Will I even be able to touch Sarah? I don't know if I will like this journey if I wouldn't be able to touch her at all.
"You will be solid to the touch. Do not worry. Now if you do not have anymore questions. Let's go."
"Where are we going? Do I at least deserve to know that?" He questioned one last time.
"Why, Sarah's house of course."
The small rag-tag army moved slowly and when they finally reached the doors leading outdoors, they could hear sirens and people shouting.
Sarah turned to everyone, "You guys have to go. No one can find you in here. They'll think you killed all these people. Go back to the Underground."
Hoggle moved to speak but a small goblin voice was heard, "Not me, girly. Must get kingy back. Can't go back until have kingy."
Sarah looked down at the small goblin with big ears and gangly limbs who had spoken. "What's your name?"
The goblin's chest puffed with pride as he answered. "I Garbo. I a fixer. I help you."
"Alright Garbo, you can stay, but you have to keep them outside from seeing you. The rest of you have to go back to the Underground. No arguements. Jareth would want all of you to fight to keep the Labyrinth safe from Cianan. I will try to figure out something up here, okay?"
She received a lot of nodding heads in assent. They turned to go the other way as she looked at her three friends.
"Hoggle, you, Didymus and Ludo need to go too. Go to the castle and get the rest of the army out of there. Cianan will more than likely go there first."
"Sarah, be careful." Hoggle wrung his hands in worry.
"I will, Hoggle. You three be careful as well. I will talk to you more through the mirror later, okay?"
"Fair maiden, be safe upon your journey." Didymus replied with a bow.
"Sawah safe. Sawah friend." Ludo whined, his big eyes shining with tears.
And with a teary farewell, the four friends parted once again, not knowing if they would meet again.
She made her way out of the doors, stopping at the carnage that was in front of her. There were cars overturned and bodies strewn everywhere. People were screaming in fear and agony. There were numerous ambulances and firetrucks parked nearby. EMTs scrambled here and there, tending to the wounded, dying, and comforting those that were beyond saving. Police were there taking witness accounts from the unscathed bystanders. News reporters stood off to the side, updating the rest of the world as new leads would come up.
All this becuase of Cianan's insane infauation with power.
The scene was too much for her and she collapsed. She was saved from jarring her ribs further as a pair of thin, strong arms wrapped around her, pulling her upright, and securing one of her arms around their shoulders.
A voice sounding very familiar whispered in her ear. "You are safe now. We need to get you home. We don't have much time."
Sarah blinked as she finally looked at the person holding her. It was a woman with pale, blonde hair and beautiful mis-matched eyes of green and gold.
Her head swam as she tried to think of why the woman's eyes reminded her so much of Jareth.
Then it all clicked as it fell into place for her.
"You..you're-"
"Hush now. Everything will be fine. Lets get you home."
A shout got their attention and they watched as an EMT ran over to them, "Are you alright, ma'm? Come with me and get you checked over for injuries."
The woman holding her up replied, pointing back behind Sarah. "I got her. I will take her to the ambulance, that man over there behind you looks really bad."
He nodded and made his way to the badly injured man behind them. With the EMT otherwise occupied, they slipped away from the scene of pure carnage un-noticed.
The woman whispered again in Sarah's ear, "My name is Valeria. I was sent here to make sure you make it to your home safely. We cannot let Cianan get ahold of you. Where is your car?"
Sarah's head was spinning as she spoke. "Who are you?"
She shook her head, "All will be explained once we get to your home. Once again, where is your car?"
So much like Jareth.
With a weary nod, she lifted a hand up and pointed to the small beat up Ford Escort. "I lost the keys when Jare- when we were running from Cianan." She couldn't even think of him without choking up. Even though they were against each other in the Labyrinth, it didn't mean they had been enemies. Her jaunt through the labyrinth was more like one test after another.
But a test for what?
"Keys will not be a problem. Come now, get in."
Sarah shook her head, "You don't understand, the car won't move without a key in the ignition. Plus the doors are locked."
"And I told you that keys would not be neccesary. Jareth told me you would be stubborn, but by the goddess, you are just as hard-headed as he is."
Sarah was about to speak when Valeria opened the car door and ushered her in. To say she was shocked was an understatement. I could've sworn I locked the door when I got out.
Valeria shut her door and went around the car to climb into the driver's seat. She turned to Sarah with a smile on her face.
"You know, I have always wanted to drive one of these things. Please buckle up."
Sarah's eyes widened in fear, "You've never drove before."
"Of course, I am dead after all." She replied nonchalantly.
The terror in her voice could be heard when Sarah screamed, "You're a ghost! You're a ghost and you are driving my car!"
"Yes, now if you would buckle up, we can start heading to your house."
"No! I am not letting a ghost drive my car! Move to the back! I'll drive."
Valeria shook her head again, "I'm afraid I cannot let you drive in your condition."
Sarah moved to grab the steering wheel, when all of a sudden she felt a warmth wash over her. She stilled as her eyes closed and she slumped back into her seat, fast asleep.
The female ghost smiled at her, brushing strands of haif from her cheek, "I am sorry for doing this to you, but we have very little time. I can see why my son loves you so much, Sarah. You are such a fighter. I would be proud to have you as a daughter-in-law."
She waved her hand over the ignition and the car came to life. She placed it in drive and sped out of the parking lot. "Now lets take you home."
