Where everything seems possible and nothing is what it seems.
'Delilah's eyes widened, and she shook her head. "I can't! You know I can't." She turned away.'
Way before Sarah Williams, this is the "prequel" story of Delilah Anderson and her tale with Jareth, the Goblin King. After hearing about a myth about the Goblin King supposedly stealing babies after a certain statement is repeated, Delilah finds herself stuck in Jareth's labyrinth to try and get out.
Will she have great difficulty or will it be just a piece of cake?
(Note: I really recommend watching Jim Henson's 1986 Labyrinth with David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly, you will have a better time reading and understanding this story.)

Now it's their senior year and things in their lives have gotten wild. Franklin had been adopted by her Forster family. Sarah started to wish her father never remarried so that she wouldn't have an annoying little brother. One afternoon the girls realize that Sarah is out past curfew. They had been practicing their lines for their last school play as seniors. Labyrinth. Their rushed journey back to Sarah's house resulted in a rainy argument. The dad and stepmom were leaving to go on their weekly date, making Sarah watch the baby, Toby. Franklin willingly stayed instead of going back home. She witnessed Sarah have a crazed outburst as soon as the adults left. Causing poor Toby to wail and wail. Sarah grew angry and started to yell at the child. Even told him a silly story from their play to shut him up. Then a flash of lightning strikes and there out of nowhere a strange blonde man appears.
