Disclaimer: I don't own anything related to the Labyrinth except this
story's plot line. I also don't think I have anything of value to anyone,
if I was to be sued.
AN: Let me know what you think. Should I continue with this? Or toss it on the shelf, like the junk I think it is?

Chapter 2
Diana and Cleo looked at each other as yet another piece of glass broke on the tiled floor of the kitchen. Things were getting worse, this was the second one that day. Toby had gone out to grab something for them to eat, seeing as Karen no longer cooked. Shrugging they turned back to what they had been doing, working on drawings for their respective art classes.
"Fuck," Cleo swore softly. "It doesn't look right." She stated looking down at the painting in front of her.
"What doesn't look right?" Her twin inquired.
"The Escher room. I can't get the lighting right."
"Why are you drawing that again?"
"It's for school. We have to work out a version of our own off an artist's piece, whom we were assigned. Ironically I got MC Escher."
"You're kidding."
"No."
"Asked for him then?"
"No."
"You must have rigged it then."
"Diana" Cleo screeched. "Do you know what you are suggesting?"
Peels of laughter stopped her angry tirade. "Relax Cleo. I was just kidding. I know you wouldn't cheat any more then I would. Beside," Diana continued. "You know Sarah would catch you if you tried to pull anything."
Cleo nodded ruthfully. "Yeah. There is always that. I swear that Sarah. It's like she has a."
"She has a what?" A voice rang out from the doorway.
The girls twisted to see a figure standing in the doorway. "Sarah!" Immediately both were on their feet and squeezing the life out of her.
"Um Girls, need to breath here," Sarah managed to gasp out.
Diana and Cleo pulled back quickly, and grinned. "Sorry. Guess we got a little carried away." Cleo shrugged sheepishly. "We're just happy.."
Her sentence was cut off by a crash from the first floor. "What was that?" Sarah exclaimed.
The twins looked at their feet, nervously.
"Girls? Would you care to answer my question?"
"Mom," Diana mumbled.
"What did you say?"
"It's Mom, she's having another one of her 'episodes.' It's almost normal now."
Sarah looked thoughtful for a minuet. "I think," she said slowly. "That you need to tell me exactly what has been going on." With that she settled herself on the floor. "And there is no time like the present to do that."
