Chapter 21 The morning sun shined brightly through the windows in the healer’s room, where Sarah and Jareth both lay asleep. Sarah jerked awake and sat up. The sudden movement caused Jareth to wake up. “Sarah, what’s wrong?” he asked worriedly. Sarah looked at Jareth wide-eyed because his voice had startled her. “I remembered what Kieran said to me.” “What did he say?” Jareth asked. “Kieran told me that he killed your father, because he wanted everything he had,” she informs him. “Are you sure he said that?” Jareth asks her. “I’m sure. He confessed it to me.” Jareth didn’t say anything; he just sat there staring at her. Sarah looked at him sadly. “You don’t believe me” Jareth smiled and leaned over, kissing her forehead. “Of course I believe you, Sarah. I was just thinking how to get him to confess to me.” “Oh.” Sarah was relieved that he believed her, but she was also unsure how he was going to get Kieran to admit to his crimes. Jareth looked at Althea, “Is Sarah going to be okay here with you while I am gone?” Althea nodded her head. “Yes, Sire, I will take good care of her.” Sarah looked at Jareth afraid. “Where are you going?” “I am going to talk to my mother,” he said, then noticed how scared she looked and added, “What’s wrong, precious?” “I thought you were going to confront him,” Sarah said. Jareth kissed Sarah quickly on the lips, and then laid his forehead against hers and whispered “Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine.” With that said, Jareth disappeared. Sarah still couldn’t stop worrying about him, afraid that after just finding him, she would lose him. Jareth appeared at his mother’s castle in the throne room, where his mother and his sister Tiana were talking. His mother looked up and smiled warmly at her son. “What can I do for you, son?” Before Jareth spoke, he looked around the room. “Is Kieran gone?” Jolene looked at her son confused “Yes. He went away on business.” “I need to tell you what he’s done,” Jareth explained. His mother sighed. “What did he do now?” “He stabbed Sarah,” he told them. Both women looked appalled at the news. “Are you sure it was him?” Jareth looked at his mother, who was looking at him disbelievingly. “I know you think he is a good man, mother, but he’s not. “And you have proof he’s not?” Jolene asked him. “Yes, and not only that, but he told Sarah he killed my father,” Jareth informed his mother. Jolene put her hand over her mouth, shaking her head. “No, no…,” she kept repeating. Tiana looked at her mother, “I never knew that my father was that cruel.” Jareth hugged his mother, who had broken down in tears. “So how do we get father to proof it?” Tiana asked. Jareth looked at her surprised. “I never thought you want to bring your father down.” “I love my father, but if he killed someone then I want him to pay. Especially for what he did to Sarah,” Tiana said. “I have a plan,” Jareth said. “Let’s hear it, son” Jolene said as she wiped away some of her tears. Jareth shared with them the plan, they both agreed to it. Kieran was at another kingdom playing chess with his friends. They were all laughing, drinking and smoking cigars, when Tiana walked in the room crying. Kieran looked at his daughter worriedly, before she launched herself into his arms, and she was sniffling. “Oh daddy, you will never believe what I heard about you,” Tiana said in between breaths. Kieran stood up. “Come, my child, let’s talk in another room.” Kieran led her out of the room and into an empty room. “Now, daughter, what is wrong?” Kieran asked. “Jareth came and told us that you stabbed Sarah and that you killed Jareth’s father!” Tiana told him, sniffling. Kieran looked furious and he started pacing the room “That bitch lived!” he growled. Tiana looked at him puzzled and then replied, “Yes father. Sarah is alive.” Kieran looked at Tiana “Where is she?” Tiana looked at him, confused “At Jareth’s castle with the healer.” Kieran was ready to leave, but Tiana’s voice stopped him. “Did you really kill Jareth’s father?” Kieran looked at her and smiled. “I had to, dear. Everything always fell into his lap; he got to be king, he got a beautiful wife, and so much money. I wanted it all and yes I know I was married and had a daughter, but Jolene was a lot prettier and much too good for him. So I decided to take everything from him and the only way to do that was to kill him.” “Oh, daddy,” Tiana moaned sadly. A couple of guards walked in and grabbed Kieran “What are you doing?” Kieran tried to get away from them, but Jareth walked into the room and stood in front of him. Kieran looked up at him, not sure what to expect. “You are going to pay for what you did to my father,” Jareth promised, angrily. Kieran didn’t have time to reply, the guards quickly took him away. Jareth looked at Tiana, who was wiping her eyes and smiling up at him. Jareth hugged her and kissed her cheek, then looked at her smiling. “You should have been an actress, my dear.” Tiana looked at him, smiling back at him. Then her face fell, giving him a confused look. “What’s an actress?” Jareth laughed, walking out of the room, and Tiana followed him. Jareth appeared in the healer’s room and he sat in the chair next to the bed. He ran his fingers gently along Sarah’s cheek. She woke up slowly, and when Sarah saw Jareth staring at her, she smiled happily at him. “What happened?” she asked curiously. “My stepfather is going to return to his kingdom, where I figure my mother, will not be very pleased with him,” he told her. Sarah grinned happily at him and he kissed her. She closed her eyes and fell back to sleep, Jareth sat there watching her until he fell asleep. Althea was watching the couple, fondly. She was so happy that Jareth had finally found happiness.
