Having Much In Common
*Roselea's POV*
Then I woke up to a scream from Sarah's bedroom.
"What's wrong?!" I whispered but Sarah would not answer. I was still out on the tree branch, my face stained with tears. I must have cried myself to sleep, looking at the full moon and thinking of my father.
"Sarah! Answer me! I can't help you if you don't tell me." I said, as I looked closer, Sarah was just having a dream, she woke abruptly.
"No!" She screamed and then I jumped in and ran to her.
"What happened, Sarah? Did you see something?!" I asked, actually feeling concerned for her.
"I wasn't really sure, but that dream was so real. I thought I was falling... like I was going to fall forever, then I was getting closer to the ground and no one saw me. Then I saw flames under me, I thought I was going to be a goner!" Then I tried to calm her down.
"That's what my dreams were like, when Flare would knock me out. Nothing but dreams of flames... then I finally had a dream that took me over the edge, almost losing my sanity..." then I stopped. I didn't want to plague her thoughts with such a nightmare.
"Go to bed, you need your rest. We might not get much when we are in the Labyrinth.". Then I saw her little music box out of nowhere. It looked like the dress Sarah wore in that dream world my father made for her.
Then it played a familiar tune to me. It was As The World Falls Down...
I liked that song, though it was for Sarah, it was still a beautiful piece of music.
"Roselea? How was it, I mean, what was it like growing up in the Labyrinth?" Sarah asked me, at first I was about to not reply, but I was a little bored... why not spin a tale or two.
"Well, Sarah, growing up in the Labyrinth is very different from this place. It was mostly peaceful because my father ruled the Goblins with a iron fist. I helped my father sometimes when I was little. I was the little princess, and everyone appreciated that I was different from my father. Though, I could not imagine how much different I was to him... he taught me all he ever knew, he took care of me so much. He would do anything for me, he still will do anything. He told me stories in the night, we celebrated Underground holidays like Labernismas, and we would always be together. We have been through so much together, I could never stand losing him..." then I started crying a little more, then Sarah had a paper tissue for me.
"Thank you... I must be changing since I am in this world with you. I never usually share my feelings, other than with my father, of course."
"Is okay to let your feelings out, it helps the people around you try to help. Now, I never would have imagined Jareth, The Goblin King, being so nice." Sara said, which then got me into a rant.
"Sarah, he is a very generous Fea! You asked the child be taken, he took him! You coward before him, he was frightening! He had reordered time, turned the world upside down, and he had done it all for you! He got exhausted living up to your expectations of him! Isn't that nice and generous! And for what?! To have his heart broken by you, a spoiled girl who got all my father's undivided attention and wasting 13 hours just to have you turn him down after he had danced with you and offered to be a slave to you, and offered your dreams..." I said, trying to defend my father in his absence.
"But you helped me find him..." she said...
"I did, but that was just so I could get rid of you, and your little brother too! I knew you would say no to my father, so why not make the pain last less than it had to be. I had to try to heal that broken heart of my father's... but instead... he went back to this vary tree branch, hoping some day you may choose him. But no... this will never happen... you got your life here that you need to live. You don't need the Underground like I do..." I said, now tears in my eyes and I transformed into a owl and went back out to that tree branch. I transformed back and Sarah came to the window.
"I am sorry, for what I have caused... I should have never brought up this..."
"Its ok Sarah..." I interrupted, "I have sort of forgiven you for that... I just wish to be back home, with my father..."
I thought about what I just said, then I needed to have Sarah go to bed, we needed our strength for the Labyrinth.
"Well, goodnight Sarah, may the Fae of Good Dreams protect you tonight, for tomorrow is a brand new day and adventure awaits." I said, then she smiled.
"Where did you get that from?" She asked, she asks the silliest of questions.
"My father would tell me of the Fea, the one of Good Dreams, Good Fortune, Good Health, and then the Guardian Fae. My grandmother is a Guardian Fae, she protects my father and I."
"Like a Guardian Angel?" Sarah interrupted and I smiled. "I guess so, now please go to bed, I don't want a whiny Sarah on my hands." I said with a chuckle and I looked at the moon after she layed her head on her pillow.
"Father, I am coming... may the Guardian Fae protect you and I, for we have a long adventure in our hands." I said, leaning my head on the tree and falling fast asleep.
