Strange Magic
Prologue
It had been months since Aimee and Priscilla had traveled to the Labyrinth and saved it. It had been months since the girls had seen Tarrant or Jareth and their parents had noticed their change in behavior.
They seemed melancholy though they laughed and smiled when they were in a crowd, but when their parents caught them alone they would be staring at nothing or crying silently. Also, to their great alarm, they noticed scars on the girls that were not there before. The girls told them they were from old accidents.
Their parents tried to talk to them about it, but they didn't tell them anything more. They finally decided to leave them alone and just to be there for them when they needed it. For the mean time each girl was busy with their own productions.
Priscilla's family, who ran the Silver Palace Theatre Company, was busy with the production of 'Phantom of the Opera'. They had been performing it for a month, two weeks, and five days. A few more shows and they would take a break for a month then start a new show.
Aimee's family, who owned the Celestial Stage, was performing an acrobatic ballet version of 'The Frog Prince'. They had the same running time as the Silver Palace Theatre Company.
The girls had thrown themselves into their work and were putting their all into it as a distraction against the grief and memories. The performed their rolls with little to no mistakes. Aimee was the Princess and Priscilla was playing Christine.
They did all they could to keep busy and away from their thoughts.
