Chapter One: Drunken Wishes
"G-guys, tanks for tofight," Sarah slurred as she stumbled along hanging onto to her friends for support.
"Well, it's not every day a pretty girl like you turns 21," Dale joked, making sure to keep Sarah from falling, "plus we had to make sure you had a proper taste of alcohol." Dale smiled and tighten his muscular arm around Sarah's waist. They sure did show her the meaning of good alcohol, she hadn't been this hammered in while... ever. Anytime she stuck a few of her dad's beers she would immediately pour the rest out and throw it away from the awful and bitter taste.
"Sorry we have to leave you alone on your big night, we have to fly out tomorrow," Ruby said apologetically. "Wh-what, …show more content…
Chapter Two: Back At Last
"What did you do to Sarah!" a short angry dwarf cursed at Jareth.
"What I do with Sarah is none of your concern," Jareth snapped at the small creature. He did not have time for some trivial dwarf to demand answers from him.
"None of my concern! You were the one that assigned me to look after Sarah in the first place," Over the years Hoggle earned a high place in the Goblin Court, thanks to this he now had a right to oppose the king within reason, and as of now Hoggle couldn't be any more furious at him. "We both know she doesn't belong here!" The last thing Hoggle saw of Sarah was her out with her friends celebrating her birthday. Granted, it was easy to tell that Sarah felt detach at times, and maybe a little empty- nevertheless her place still wasn't here.

Slowly Sarah felt the ground underneath her feet. "It is rather adorable how you cling onto to me, but I must regrettably inform you that this is what I wanted to show you,"
Sarah immediately let go of Jareth glaring. She was about to yell at him when she saw it. The labyrinth was in utter ruins, the once standing walls were now minuscule rocks lying at her feet, creatures of all shapes and sizes laid on the ground; some seemed to be on the brink of death. The previous splendor and childhood wonder was nowhere to be seen.
"The labyrinth can no longer exist," Jareth's face was stone cold and his voice bitter all the previous playfulness left his voice, "I have failed as a King to bring a Queen to complete it and now the labyrinth and I are slowly dying."
"You're dying?" Sarah was taken aback. She stared at the Goblin King taking in every detail, horror hit her at this sudden realization. At first, you couldn't even notice it, he carried himself the same way as before, however, as Sarah looked closer she saw the blue bags under his eyes, his skin was a pale sickly yellow, and his eyes that captivated her as a child were going dim.
