Sarah was standing in the library trying to find something that could help her. Ever since the talk she had have with the high queen a few days a go she had spent every waken moment trying to figure out what kind of spell that was in use.

High queen Melora herself was trying her best to find out what was going on as carefully as she could. They could not risk her cover being blown before they knew what was going on. A task Melora told her was much harder then she made it look.

During the few days after the new power was given to her Melora and the spirit had been keeping a very close eye on Sarah. They had even come to a point when to two ladies has started to work together to make sure she was alright.

Something that was starting to go on Sarah's last good nerve. Because the bubbling anger she have had for the past week was giving sings of not leting go. Something that only worried Sarah, everyone else seemed to be alright with it.

Sarah closes the book she was holding on to with a deep sigh. She have been reading through every single book at least twice on mind control but she have come out empty handed.

"The child of the labyrinth." A voice said behind Sarah and she could not help but to roll her eyes when she heard who it was. She slowly turns around and bows down a little. "High queen." She said.

Melora looks at Sarah. She really didn't like talking Sarah out in the open. "Still with that nose in your books." She said with a half hallowed voice and Sarah narrows her eyes.

"Still trying to tell that lady of yours how to act?" Sarah answered her with just as much of a hallowed voice. "She is a good fit for the land, she don't need to be told how to do anything." Melora said simply.

Sarah just shaked her head and she turns around and she puts the book she was reading back in to the bookshelf. "Well then you most miss something or you judgment has been flying out the window." She then said and she walks past Melora heading towards the door.

As she walks past Melora she could hear the woman whisper I'm sorry and Sarah barley nods her head. She pushes open the doors and walks down the corridor but soon stops as she could hear footsteps walking towards her.

She narrows her eyes and steps closer to the wall and she puts a hand on it. A second later a new wall was made infront of her, a wall she could see through and just a few seconds later Leira walks past her new hidding spot.

But the fea woman was not alone. Jareth was walking beside her and Sarah looks at him. His expression was hallow and his eyes were empty. It almost looked like he was a walking doll without a soul.

Sarah follows the two as they keept walking down the corridor and once they were gone she steps out from her hidding spot. She puts one of her hands on her head and she could feel a small headache creep in.

"I really need air and a change of scenery." She says to herself and starts to walk once more. She just keept on walking, not really knowing where she was going.

She was in deep thoughts and she jumps when a sudden voice was talking to her. "Oh! A young girl!" A voice said.  "WHOO WHOO WHOO!" Was soon followed in another voice and Sarah turns around and she smiles seeing an old friend of sort.

Without realising it Sarah had walked in to the Labyrinth and was now standing eye to eye once more to the Wiseman and his talking bird hat. The old Goblin was looking down at her from his book chair.

"Wiseman, it has been a long time." Sarah said and she takes of the necklace. Ever since the spirit had given her the full control over the Labyrinth Sarah has been able to walk around out here as her true self without anyone in the castle or any other to find out about it.

"WHOO! WHOO! WHOO!" The bird hat said once more and it leans forwards to take a better look at her. "And who are you?" The Wiseman asked and Sarah could not help but to giggle a little.

The bird hat looks down on the Wiseman before it looks back at Sarah once more. "How's that for brain power, eh?" The hat said and the old Goblin looks up at the hat. "Be quiet!" He calls out and the two of them starts of their small fights once more.

Sarah just shakes her head and she keeps smiling. "Wiseman." She then said, putting an end to the fight before they could get deeper in to it. The old Goblin and the hat looks at her once more.

"It's me, the champion you gave advise to 10 years ago. Sarah Williams." Sarah said and she puts her hand over her heart. "So, young woman, the way forward is..." The Wiseman said and Sarah rolls her eyes. "Sometimes the way back." She and the hat finished together.

"That's what you told me the last time we meet to.  It didn't help me back then and I'm not sure it will now either." Sarah said and she sits down on the bottom of the big book chair. "To fight through hard times is the only way of reaching the truth." The Wiseman said and Sarah could feel the old goblins hand on her shoulder.

She turns to look at him. "You are making no sense like always." She said, letting anger taking over once more and along with it the headache that had been gone since the moment she meet her old friends. "Will you listen to this crap!" The hat said and Sarah looks up at it.

"Words down here has powers. You should know that." The hat quickly said before the old Goblin was able to tell him to be quiet once more. Sarah looks down as the hats words was echoing through her head. "Words has power." She says with a low voice.

A snore soon breaks Sarah's trail of thought and she looks up only to see the old Goblin sleeping once more and she smiles. "Ah! It's so stimulating being your hat." The bird hat said and Sarah laughed a little and she raises up.

She takes out a small coin and she puts it in to the wooden box the old Goblin was holding on to. "Gracias, senorita." The hat said and Sarah nods her head. "Thank you. You might have helped me out after all." She said with a smile.

She waves the to hat before she turns around and heads back to the castle with determination. When she was getting closer to the end of the Labyrinth she pulls on the necklace and she steps in to the half empty goblin city.

Sarah's mind was set on heading to the library once more but she soon stops when she could feel a though on her magic and a small voice was echoing around her. "I wish the goblins would come and take you away right now."

Sarah's eyes grows big as she could feel how the world around her was shifting.  "No, no, no. Not now!" She said but the second later she was gone in a cloud of glitter and smoke.
