Lourdes & Jareth | The Library
Even in her panic she could see that Jareth was rather calm about the whole thing. She had no idea how he was so damn calm with dead men walking and attacking and other men just dropping dead for no god damn reason! Did he have some idea as to what the hell was going on?
Her panic was rising which was clearly not helping the situation. It was also very obvious on her face. The attack was still happening around them. She could see other people fighting for their lives and people falling but the attackers were kept a bay from her and Emilie by the collection of dead men standing around them. She took the opportunity to check on Emilie again. She was still breathing at the very least.
She looked back up when Jareth spoke to her. The men around her were clearly attempting to keep him away from her. Her eyes grew wide at him when he told her she needed to tell them something.
"How do I do that?!" she asked but he was already answering her. Think it clearly? So he was literally saying she was controlling all of these dead men? She would have been perfectly happy to believe that it was a coincidence. How on earth was she doing this? Her thoughts cleared as Jareth commanded her loudly. Lourdes closed her eyes and thought. Safe. He is safe. She thought loudly in her head. Release him she commanded in her heard. They listened, quickly releasing Jareth and returning to their positions around them.
"What the hell is going on?!" She asked him, her eyes wide but bouncing back and forth between him and the damaged, but still standing, dead men apparently standing guard.
