Flames of Young Love
The old, abandoned, olympic stadium burned down on a bright, sunny, summer day, after a week of rain. Nobody was there to see it catch fire. Everyone was talking about it.
And Nobody knew how it was done.
It was a nine-day mystery among the townsfolk, talked over, wondered over, and discussed to death before the news broke that the rich young daughter of the mayor had run away with a vagabond girl.
But the two girls, when they heard the tale, only looked at each other and smiled, for they had placed a crystal ball in the middle of the stadium a week (a rainy week) before as a distraction to help them escape. And crystal balls, like magnifying glasses, are excellent at focusing sunlight so hard that it becomes flame.
Have you seen the future? We believe it ends in fire....!
