Labyrinth: The Return

Chapter 3

"Oh Gran," said Elizabeth. She got up and put the letter back in the box and put the necklace on. Looking into the mirror, she fully realized the beauty of the necklace in the lighting.

"I do not see any harm in wearing it to bed," she stated, looking into the mirror. Then turning off the small lamp at her desk, she made her way to bed. Curling up under the covers, Elizabeth turned off the lamp next to her bed.

"Good night, Gran," she mumbled, as she started to fall asleep. While falling asleep, she started thinking about Jareth, the Goblin King, and how beautiful his eyes could have been. That is, if she got to see him in person. Then, her pendant started to glow a bright purple and immediately, Elizabeth was transported to the outskirts of Goblin City.

Meanwhile, Hoggle, is in the middle of spraying fairies.

"59, 60," he stated. Then in the corner of his eye, he thought he saw something. He turns around and spots a girl who looked a lot like Sarah.

"Is that," he mumbled to himself.

"Nah, it can't be," he stated, turning around, getting back to spraying fairies.

"61," he counted. Then looking over again, she was still there.

"She looks a little bit like her," he mumbled. Then he put down the sprayer and walked over to the sleeping girl. Getting closer, she looked exactly like Sarah. Except her hair was different. It was wavy instead of it being straight. After Hoggle got a good look at the girl, he shook his head and turned around. 

"Sarah is at home, where she belongs. She is not here," he shouts to the labyrinth. Elizabeth, who was sleeping, thought she heard something like shouting but did not bother waking up. She continued to dream of Jareth and what his eyes would look like. Then a goblin comes from the gates and sees the sleeping girl.

"It's......it's," he stutters.

Then he runs to the castle, trying to find Jareth. It is at this time that Elizabeth disappears, and re-appears back into her bed in her parents' house.

"Your majesty," the goblin states, looking at Jareth, the Goblin King, bowing.

"Yes, what is it," looking down at the goblin.

"The girl......the girl who ate the peach and forgot everything," the goblin reported.

"What of her," Jareth added.

"She is here," the goblin shared.

"What," Jareth exclaimed.

"Where did you see her," he added.

"She was just outside the castle gates," the goblin replied. Then in the blink of an eye, Jareth appeared no outside of the castle gates. However, there was no one there!

"Sarah," he stated, softly, and a single tear appeared on the corner of his eye.
