Chapter 35: The Epilogue

Mai blinked against the dazzling light of the sun four months later as she rode a horse out of the woods. Jareth was going to be away for a few days and Mai was taking every opportunity to have some fun around the Labyrinth. As she grew bigger and rounder, Jareth had started putted more restrictions on what she could do. So while he was gone, she was little rebel.

"Clay, let's go home," she said, patting the tan horse's neck. "Before it gets too hot out here."

Clay nodded and started trotting towards home. Mai's senses were picking up something, drawing closer to her. She brushed it off, thinking that it was some small creature that would pass her up on its way to wherever it was going.

Something hit the horse, spooking it. Mai tried to calm down the horse when something else hit the both of them. Clay panicked and bucked Mai off of his back. Mai landed on her stomach and didn't move.

Mai sat on a bench outside an Aboveground hospital a couple of days after Clay had bucked her off. Now she didn't have to wait five months to regain her slim waist to fit into a wedding dress. Nor would she have to throw up every morning.

After experiencing a lot of pain in her stomach when she moved after the accident and seeing blood, Mai had gone to an Aboveground doctor. There her worst fear was confirmed.

The baby was gone.

Mai knew she could not face Jareth after this. She had already sent her ring and a short note back to the Underground. Anna Look-Alike was going home to the Underground because Mai was selling the house and almost everything in it.

She looked up when she heard a car stop in front of her. It was Sarah, who had helped her by moving certain things out of the house that she wanted. Mai sighed and made her way over to the car.

Jareth would never find her, she was sure of that. She blocked her magical signature and had done the static thing again to the people looking for her through crystal balls. She did this to protect him and keep his anger away from her while she was too busy hating herself.

Mai made up her mind to disappear as her mother had years before she had been thought of. She'd never go to the Underground or have contact with its inhabitants. She would simply fade from their world and come to life in Sarah's.

"So where to?" Sarah asked, pulling away from the hospital. "Home to see the rest of your stuff?"

Mai nodded and looked out the window. She had known something bad was going to happen to her and Jareth. She had known it and she had told no one. Yet, something told her that it wasn't over and she would be forced to return to the Underground to end the new war. And face the only man she'd ever love…

"Jareth…" she breathed.

A/N: And there is the end of 'Get Over It' after so many years of working on it. It kind of seems like there's going to be a sequel, doesn't it? Well, maybe there will be, but I haven't really thought about it.

Thanks for sticking with me for this long, even if I wasn't so generous with the updates. Thanks for making this possible and please send me some reviews to tell me what you think. Thanks guys! ~Scarlet
