A click startled the huddled clump. The front door opened, and an older woman who didn't really look like Ro stepped in.

"Oh yeah," Ro whispered. "I'm home because I don't have school, if you didn't guess."

"Rosabella, sweetheart. Why are there six strangers on the couch?"

"Mother. They're helping me save the world."

"What did I tell you? You believe the stupidest things. Rosabella, get these people out. Of. My. House."

"Uh, ma'am, we -" Light began.

"Out." Laura pointed to the door.

"Bye Ro! See you!" Hope called as she exited.

"Hope!" Fantasy sighed as she closed the door.

"Well..." Reality said, "what now?"

"Well, we need to spread love of darkness, right?" Light reminded them.

"Another meme?" Fantasy asked.

"We don't have a computer." Curiosity pointed out.

"A song!" Fantasy then began to sing. (Tune: Blank Space by Taylor Swift) "Magic is in the dark,
Yeah the dark is really cool.
I really hate to barf,
Because I am not a fool.
Light is nice,
For some ice,
Dark is better,
Maroon sweaters.
Everything is so awesome!
Yeah.
People just love the dark.
Shadows and horror movies.
Scary, like, hot sauce.
Right? People like that too.
So humans, just get this:
Dark is fun, sweet, and bliss.
So come on, you know I'm right.
Yeah 'cause I am la-dee-da!!"

Reality and Light started laughing, cutting her off. "Hey!" Fantasy said.

"I'll never be that good." Worthless mumbled.

"Does it work? Will people like the dark now?" Fantasy asked.

"Um... Sorry. I don't think so. I mean, how would they even see it?" Hope laughed, shaking her head.

A different laugh echoed across the street. Turning around, the girls saw a man holding a dark rectangular thing. "Thank you, girls. Now I will finally be famous!"
