Chapter 25
Sarah and Jareth slept till the next morning missing dinner, Sarah woke up snuggled in Jareth’s arms. She looked up at him smiling, then she put her head back on his chest, she was grinning against him and wrapping her arms tightly around him. Jareth woke up stretching his arms over his head, he started to move to get up, but Sarah kept squeezing him tighter to keep him with her. “Sarah precious, I have to get up” he choked out, it was hard for him to talk since she was squeezing him hard, he grabbed her arms to loosen up, she loosened her arms around him and looked up at him pouting. “Please can you stay in bed with me?” He looked down at her and frowned “I would love to, but I have castle to run, and goblins to rule” She sulked “just for a while” He smiled big at her “okay just a couple more hours” They slept for a couple more hours; Jareth woke to his bedroom door closing. He looked around; he saw a tray with plates of food on it. He knew his goblins must’ve brought breakfast up to him. Jareth grinned at Sarah lovingly then leaned over and started to kiss her cheek; she pushed him away and mumbled “not now, I’m sleeping” Jareth laughed at her then whispered in her ear “breakfast is here” Sarah woke up slowly still tired she yawned, opened her eyes and looked at Jareth, he had a try in front of them, she sat up as he took the covers off the plates, and underneath was waffles piled high with strawberries and whip cream and two sausage links on the side. Jareth carefully handed Sarah her plate, he then took a strawberry from the top of his waffles dunked it in the cream and moved it towards Sarah, who opened her mouth ready for it, once it was in her mouth and she was chewing he licked his fingers of the juice and the cream. Sarah then did the same thing to him, then they at their breakfast, Sarah more like dove into her breakfast, Jareth watched her smirking, he never saw anyone eat so fast. “Sarah you might want to slow down” he said Sarah replied with her mouth full “I can’t help it, I’m starving” “So that is a reason for eating like a pig” he said teasingly She swallowed her food and stared at him sadly “I’m pregnant” He nodded “but that is still not a reason to inhale your food like that” She pointed to her stomach “were hungry” Jareth laughed and leaned over and kissed her forehead, Sarah went back to eating fast. After they were done, Jareth put their empty plates back on the tray, and then put it on the night table. He then stood up looking down at Sarah “I’m going to take a shower, would you like to join me?” She looked up at him “no I think I am going to take a nap” He smiled a loving smile at her, he kissed her lips and walked into the bathroom, and Sarah smiled as she lay down on the bed and closed her eyes. Jareth stripped his clothes off; he turned the water on and got into the shower, he just to wash himself up, when he felt the bathroom shake, he paused what he was doing, and stood still wondering if it was just him or it really happened. Then he felt the shaking again but it was a little stronger, he quickly turned the water off, he got out of the shower, he wrapped a towel around his waist, and he heard Sarah yell his name. He quickly walked into the bedroom, Sarah was standing there and she saw him, she started to walk towards him. The floor started to shake again; they stopped and stared at each other, they heard crackling above them and looked up, the ceiling was falling apart. Sarah saw that the ceiling was falling over Jareth, she looked at him afraid, it started to crumble down, she quickly ran to him and pushed him out the way, he landed on the floor hard, the ceiling came down on top of Sarah, she screamed then stopped. Jareth whispered horrified “Sarah” he quickly crawled over to her, a goblin walked in “sire are you okay?” Jareth sharply turned his head and said “get help, the queen is hurt” Jareth heard the goblin yell through the castle, he started to clear the ruble from Sarah. The goblins returned there were ten of them now, the cleared the rocks and debris off Sarah, Jareth quickly lifted Sarah into his arms holding her, he was still in a towel and disappeared to the healer, Sarah was unconscious still when they arrived her head was bleeding on the side above her temple, she was covered in dirt. Jareth looked down at her in his arms, she looked so innocent and peaceful, and if anything happened to her he doesn’t know what he would do. Alfred quickly had him lay Sarah on the bed, he looked over her and started to clean her off and check her for broken bones or any kind of damage, Jareth went out into the hallway to give his healer some privacy, he changed himself into a bathrobe, he saw his sister coming towards him quickly. “Jareth what happened to Sarah?” Josie asked panicked “The earthquake” he told her Josie looked at him confused “what earthquake?” Jareth looked at her puzzled “you didn’t feel it?” “No because there wasn’t one, everything is fine but your castle” she explained “Yes there was, that is how Sarah got hurt” he argued “Don’t worry mom is finding out what happened and she will let you know” she told him H gave his sister a confused look “how did mother find out about this?” “The healer contacted her, telling her Sarah was hurt, I was with mom when she got the message, I came to make sure you were alright” she said “Thanks it means a lot you’re here” he told her grabbing her hand and squeezing it affectionately His mother started walking quickly down the hall towards them. They waited for her to come up to them; once she did she spoke “I know why this earthquake only hit your castle” Jareth and Josie looked at each other than at their mother waiting for her to continue “that wasn’t a natural earth quake” they looked at her surprised but didn’t say anything they just let her continue “Tork and Raven were locked in the room, they were moved to a dungeon, they got free a while ago” their faces showed they were both surprised, their mother began to speak again “that was there father Zeik getting revenge on Jareth, that earth quake was meant to hurt you, I don’t think he meant for Sarah to save you, my army is out looking for them as we speak” she told them. Josie looked at her mother confused “who is Zeik? I don’t think I ever met him” “Sure you did dear, Zeik was best friends with your brother, until he became king and the power went to his head, and used his powers for evil” the queen told her children “Oh yeah I remember him, Jareth and him always got into trouble as teenagers, I had the biggest crush on him” Josie blurted out Marta and Jareth looked at her surprised, then Alfred came out of the room quietly, they all rushed over to him worried shown on their faces. “How is she?” Jareth asked concerned Alfred looked sadly at them “I’m sorry sire…” he saw them look down he swallowed and spoke again “she is doing alright, she has a cut on her head, and a broken arm” They all raised their heads to look at him “and the baby how is it?” “The baby is good sire” he told them They looked relieved “can I go see her?” Jareth asked “She’s still out your majesty, but you can sit with her if you like” the healer told him Jareth quickly walked in, he looked at Sarah on the bed she had a bandage on her head, and her arm in a sling, he sat in the chair next to the bed holding the hand of her good arm. “I am so relieved that Sarah is good” Josie said Her mother smiled and nodded and hugged her daughter happily. The healer watched them and smiled and returned back in his room, incase Sarah woke up and needed medicine for the pain, he was sure she would be in. Two guards walked up to the queen and her daughter “we found the guy Zeik milady” They brought Zeik forward but held on to him, the queen looked at him “why did you go after my son?” her face shown anger His face full of rage “he went after my children” “That’s only because your children went after Sarah and my grandchild” the queen told him getting angry herself Zeik walked up to the queen “oh that’s right Jareth is in love with a human” “I heard you married one” the queen said “Yes I did, she is the mother of my children, but unlike Jareth’s human, mine didn’t want to marry me, I forced her” he told them “I can see why, who would want to marry someone so evil” Josie finally spoke up Zeik looked at her “well if it isn’t Jareth’s twin, I remember you well my dear, if I am not mistaken you had a crush on me” Josie blushed and turned away from him, Jareth heard voices in the hallway, and he gently kissed Sarah on the lips, then leaned down and kissed her swollen belly softly. He got up off the chair and walked into the hallway “well if it isn’t my old friend Zeik” They all turned to look at the doorway of the healers room, Jareth stood there leaning against the doorway, his legs crossed and arms folded against his chest. “Hello Jareth” he said snidely “What can I do for you?” Jareth asked him calmly “You tell me, your mother’s guards brought me here?” Zeik asked Jareth strolled towards him “the earth quake on my kingdom was you” Zeik gave him a wicked smile, that smile angered Jareth, he grabbed him by his throat and pushed him against the wall choking him. “I’m gonna check on Sarah” the queen said leaving them alone Josie went to stand by the guards that waited there if Jareth needed them. “You almost killed my queen!” he yelled “I’m sorry about that, the quake was meant to hurt you badly, possibly weaken you, so I could kill you” Zeik told him Jareth let go of his throat and moved away from him “how could you become so cold?” “Easy I am king of the shadow lands, where the dark things live; I have my queen by my side, my children. My parents are not too happy with the changes I made to my parents kingdom, but they won’t be around forever” he told Jareth Jareth got angry again “if anything happens to Sarah you will pay” he promised Zeik bowed his head and smiled cruelly, the guards took him down the hall, and he was laughing wickedly. Jareth closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose, Josie put her arm around Jareth comforting him “don’t worry Sarah will be fine, you’ll see” Jareth and Josie walked in to the healers room, and was not prepared for the site they saw that shocked and surprised them, their mother in a lip lock with the healer Alfred, he wasn’t a unpleasant looking man, he was an older fae, but the way it looks this wasn’t a new thing, this has been going on for a while, which might explain their mother’s visit in her son’s castle more frequently, but still it disgust Jareth and Josie as it would any child to their mother or their parents kissing. Jareth and Josie quietly backed out of the room and stood in the hallway and giggled like children from there embarrassment of what they saw.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
