The house seemed so empty now with her father dead. Sarah walked through the house that she had not been in for about 4 years now. After she graduated she had left almost immediately for college and left her room as it was. She was no longer a child now and had begun to learn there was more outside of the fairy tales and books of her mother's world. She had taking up acting though in college as a minor nothing to big and it had been fun.
Now all that was gone, or so she thought as she walked through the house. Her father and step-mother had died only a week before in a plane crash that left her parent less and her young brother Toby also alone with no one but herself as a relative. He had been born to her step-mother and father and was really her half brother. Heading up the stairs she called out,"hello? " A elder woman came down the stairs she was all hustle and bustle as she talked to Sarah. "I am misses danvers Toby is napping now and I have to go I was your parents babysitter and he has been staying with me but I really must be off now." She patted the girl on the arm and proceeded down the stairs calling out," There is dinner in the fridge and I will be around in a few days to let you know all the things that you need to." About 5 minutes later the door shut and Sarah was left alone with her sleeping baby brother.
She headed up to her old room and it was still as it had been as she had grown up. All the animals and items of her girlhood staring at her. Dropping her bags onto the floor she went in search of her brother and was greeted by an angry looking little boy. She blinked at the tiny little tike and she dropped to her knees beside him as she gathered him into a hug."Hello Toby, its me Sarah." He shoved at her and remarked,"I want my mommy!?" Sarah shook her head and sighed softly,"i am sorry Toby, mommy and daddy aren't coming back." She reached up to stroke his hair and he kicked her int eh knee and ran to his room screaming.
Sarah winced in pain and climbed to her feet, "gees is he always like this. I loose my father and now I have to deal with a screaming kid again." She moves down the hall to the room that belonged to her brother and reached in and flipped on the light. There in the room was her brother sprawled on the bed and his room was done in a space theme. His wall paper was midnight blue the stars glowing when the lights were off. His floor was painted to look like the surface of the moon and she was impressed by the thoughts that had gone into his room. Walking closer she reached out to touch him again only to be shunned once more. "keep this up and I will wish the goblin king to come and take you and don't think I can't do it either." I tormented him some, remembering what had happened last time I had wished the boy away. It wouldn't happen again. Jareth would never hear me this time.
