Her life went down hill after school was over with. She let her parents down. Though it wasn't her fault. Her little brother, Toby had tragically died of SIDS. She saved him from the goblin king but he would have been safer with him.
Now a very depr...
That owl was the goblin king. He came to her in owl form. In the dead of the night flew in the window to her side. Sarah went over to her window. Opening the shutters a bit. She had rain splatter on her face.
No owl was in sight. She was imaging things.
She got her book out about the goblin king. The underground world. She wondered if she could ever return there? She was an adult now after all. Maybe she could never return to see them. Her friend Hoggle. To Jareth. Would she never see them again? Was it all a dream after all?
Was she really crazy?
Sarah grew tired trying to figure it all out that night. She gets in her bed. Crawls under her covers. Tears come to her eyes as she lays her head down on her pillow. The storm really brewed out there.

"I wish...."she speaks out loud.
It was no use to wish. She was no longer a child. Wishes never came true.
"If I could wish, well I wish the goblin king would come take me away from this awful place" yawns Sarah as her eyes grow heavy as she stopped fighting her sleep.
She hugged her pillow to her chest as she fell into her slumber for the rest of the night.
"Sarah..."
"Sarah..."
"Oh Sarah"
"Who is there?" stammers Sarah as she wipe the sleep from her eyes.
She sits up awakened in her bed. She had been in slumber for a few hours. She glances over at her clock that was on her night stand.
"Sarah" a male voice calls to her.
"Jareth ?" she answers.
"Why do you want me to take you away from here? You're not a babe?" he laughs softly as he forms before her glitter dust settles in a fog there around him.
"I hate it here Jareth" she says. "they all think I am crazy"
"But you're not crazy" he says to her.
"I know that but they think I am" she tells him. "I can never do anything right"
"Sarah, you know that is not true. It is all in your mind" he tries to tell her.
"Can you take me away or not? Was that all a lie before?" she challenges him.
"No, I can give you all your wildest dreams come true. You know I can Sarah" he offers.
"Then do it. Take me away from here" she begs him.
"Away from this awful place" she says.
"You're wish is my command dear Sarah" Jareth says softly to her as he rolls a crystal ball in between his hands. Her eyes focus on the ball in front of her.
"Sarah, Sarah you were having a bad dream. Wake up" calls her dad as he shakes her wake gently.
"Dad, was I? Was it a dream? Did you see Jareth?" yawns sleepy Sarah she looks up to see only her dad there before her. Jareth was gone.
He had promised her. Maybe she imagined what she wanted to. He never really was there after all. Sadness comes over her. Of course it was all a dream. Everyone always told her it had all been just a dream.
"Sarah want me to get your medicine so you can sleep?" offers her dad.
"I will be fine. I promise dad" she yawns. He hugs her.
"It will be fine Sarah. We all will be okay. Things like this take time. Healing" says her dad. "good night Sarah"
He leaves the room.
"I wish the goblin king would come take me away" Sarah yawns as her eyes flutter back close as she heads back to slumber for the rest of the night.
