"You have no Power over me"

Jareth's heart shattered at those 6 dreadful words. His world crumbled around him much like his crystal ball that disintegrated with her touch.

And forever bound to his word he let her and her brother go back to their world. He even let her keep her powers to summon her friends whenever she wanted. And she dare mocked his generosity! His power may be finite over Sarah and though he tried to deny it he knew that deep down Sarah had an infinite power over him. And that's what infuriated him more.

Fine…let her keep her naïve dreams. He could have given her the moon on a string but no. Was he that repulsive to be around? He didn't need anyone! He never had and never will!

He held his crystal ball in a tight grip while appearing in his bed chambers and looked at himself in his full length mirror. He snarled at his reflection, watched in horrid fascination as the almighty Goblin King cried.

"Never Again!" Jareth shouted throwing the crystal at the mirror watching both of them shatter much like his soul was.

He transformed to his owl form and landed on a tree branch outside her window. He watched as she played and laughed with her friends. His heart clenched painfully at the site. Deeming that he had put himself through enough torture he flew off into the night wanting to forget his strong willed love…Sarah Williams….

11 years later Sarah lay crumpled up on the floor gritting her teeth to keep from crying out in pain. It only made him hit her more and harder. 'Actress' shouldn't show their weakness' He would whisper coldly in her ear while he constantly beat her. Whatever happened to the kind man who's smile made her weak in the knees… The man she fell in love with years ago.

She heard two little gasps from the doorway and she looked up and stared at her children. Her daughter was named Astrid, the Greek word meaning star, while her son was named Daniel as her husband had picked his name.

She noticed her husband had gone still and she feared that he might go after them. "It's alright children; Daddy is just helping Mommy rehearse for her play." Sarah spoke softly while managing a small hint of a smile.

They both stood there as if frozen in place and continued to stare at them as if they had mutated into aliens. Richt smiled at his children and went to them. "Go to your rooms so daddy can continue helping mommy." Richt said smiling brightly at his children.

Luckily they both left obediently. Astrid was 8 while Daniel was 6 years old. They were very brave kids. Sarah was glad they were smarter then most kids their age. She had told them long ago to always obey their father. Thank God they did as she feared that he might one day snap and go for their children as her substitute. She would rather die then to have him go after her babies.

He shut the door locking it behind him. 'Oh god no…' She thought. Richt smiled sickly at her as he flipped on the loud music that would hide her screams and cries. With a cold smile he started towards her. 'God please no…not again…please…someone…Save me!' her mind shouted as her husband ripped her skirt off and yanked down her panties.

"No!" she cried out as she felt him entering her unprepared. She could feel the blood trickling down her thighs as she silently cried. 'Please…someone…anyone…Jareth' She thought on her last though of consciousness.

Jareth's eyes were hooded over in Anguish and malice as he watched Sarah being rapped by her husband. It tore him up inside to see his beloved strong willed Sarah take all his beatings.

He could always hear her calling out his name but he was bound to his world unless she 'said the right words.' He cursed viciously as he listened to her ragged breathing and her gasps of pain. He swore if he ever got his hands on her husband Richt he would make sure he suffered a worst fate of being trapped in the bog of eternal stench.

He turned back as he saw that His beloved was now unconscious and her husband just left her lying in a ball on the bed as she cried. His heart clenched painfully at the sight of his broken beauty. How could he save his precious Sarah? Suddenly his vision flashed to her children's bedroom. He suddenly gave a small light warm smile. He loved her children as if they were his very own. They were every bit as beautiful and smart as their mother. And just as brave he thought looking upon them now through his crystal ball.

They were huddled on Astrid's bed. Astrid was holding her sobbing brother while she cried silently as if trying to hold back the tears while she comforted her brother. She was every bit as strong willed as her mother.

Watching her sharp green eyes and Idea suddenly struck him. Problem was could he pull it off without pissing off the Fates? Only one way to find out.

With a bit of magic he made the book 'The Labyrinth 'appear on Astrid's dresser knowing she would find it.

Now all he had to do was wait….
