The clock struck the thirteenth hour just as Sarah found Jareth. He
sat on the wall of a room with no up or down, in or out, beginning or
ending. the room wound around itself like a coiled serpent.
Toby was there, but Sarah couldn't reach him. The walls and ceiling
kept changing places.
'Give up Sarah,' Jareth said, 'and I will give you anything you
desire. Look!' A spinning crystal ball hung in front of him, and in
it were things that Sarah had only dreamed of.
Sarah's eyes remained fixed on Toby.
Toby sat at the top of a staircase that led into nothingness. Sarah
screamed.
'Give up, Sarah!' Jareth thundered. 'Why is the baby so important to
you? Why must you have him?'
'Because I love him!' Sarah eyes blazed. Her gaze split Jareth's
heart in two, for Jareth had no strength at all against the power of
love. He shrank into himself and uttered a terrible cry.
Then the castle and everything vanished.
Sarah found herself in the hall way of her own home. She rushed
upstairs to Toby's nursery.
'Toby! Toby! She called. Toby was there, lying in his crib, smiling
up at her. she picked him up gently.
'I love you, Toby,' she whispered to him, 'and I always will. I
promise.'
Sarah has kept this promise. She keeps it still, though Toby has
since grown up, and Sarah is now a strikingly beautiful woman.
