Fate of a Baby/Labyrinth ch 12

Chapter Twelve/ The End

Jareth sad and lonely after his mother’s passing, had only one ray of hope and that was that one day he would see his one true love. He knew no other woman or fae would do. Sarah was his match and he wanted her to be his wife. But through the years Jareth had changed much. But he continued on remembering his mother’s words and he swore on her grave that he would not let her death be invane and he would turn the world upside down to have his Sarah.

After his mother died part of her went in him too and so Jareth had some of her character within him too. Though his father’s side had grown much and his mother’s side was seen little. Yet his own integrity kept alive and his hope did too.

He wanted to make everything good, he gave back all the other kingdoms to their original royal families and decided to stay king of the Goblins and the Labyrinth and that is how his career as the Goblin King began. He knew that would lead Sarah back to him as well and so he played the role of taking children and making them go through the Labyrinth.

It was all part of the rules of the game. Day after day , child after child. Ball after ball, royal engagements after royal engagements. Many fae women had come and gone but none were able to steal Jareth’s heart away. Many tried and many failed for his heart belonged to Sarah. His loneliness took a toll on his kingdom for he was always too busy to really take care of it. He was always angry, ready to send everyone to the Bog. A very feared place.

Many years had passed and Jareth aged a bit. He had become a man now and his powers had grown throughout the years.

He had become a feared king but only those who truly knew him knew he had a soft side, but only for the one he awaited for. Every day he made his trip to Aboveground looking for a sign of Sarah and finally about the time his mother mentioned he felt a surge of power. He knew someone has been reading the book his mother had made for Sarah. He knew the time had come. He decided to make preparations and to visit Sarah.

Following the power surge he went Aboveground to find her. He was ready for his Sarah, he had years of planning and he was ready to conquer her love remembering not to give up. Not to falter, not once. He flew and flew and found her. Sarah and her beautiful face, her beautiful she looked. She was as he remembered her. He flew over her overlooking at her. He knew in his heart this was the beginning of another story.
