*March 28th*

[January, February, and March are sitting in the Everdiner. December excitedlyruns into the diner.]

December: Guys, guys! There's a magic show at the center of town that's about to start!

March: Pfft, I don't buy into those fake magic stuff. If I wanted to see magic I'd just go and see Summer try to cook.

February: I think going to a magic show would be fun!

December: Okay, c'mon! November and September are already there.

January: I'll come.

[They leave to the magic show.]

[August is painting on the wall at the center of the Sphere. Autumn walks in.]

Autumn: Hello, August.

August: Oh, hey Autumn.

Autumn: Will you take a moment to help me with an emergency?

August: Sure.

[The two enter Autumn's room and walk up to a large, dark brown box.]

Autumn: Let's head in.

[He enters through the box, August follows, and the two end up a big, circular floating platform. The skybox around them is filled with glimmering stars and galaxies.]

Autumn: Welcome to the Seasonal Hub. This is where we control Earth. The only problem is, shadows have been showing uplately.

August: Okay, but with all due respect, why do you need me?

Autumn: Because you have the power of light. And you need to train as a month.

August: Oh, okay. So, what do I need to do?

Autumn: What can you do so far?

August: I can only summon small bursts of light at a time.

Autumn: Hm... that might do. We'll start looking for the shadows, but make sure you don't trail off, alright?

August: Got it.

[The magician is preparing on stage as December, January, February, and March arrive.]

September: Oh, hey guys! Come sit next to us!

[They sit next to November and September.]

February: This is exciting! I love magic shows.

December: Me too.

[The curtains close, as the lights begin to dim. A mystical smoke surrounds the front, as light begins to grow on the stage. The curtain opens, revealing the magician floating in the air.]

Magician: It is I! The magnus of magic, the epitome of magicians, Hideaki!

[The crowd cheers, as March rolls his eyes and chuckles.]

March: I can already see the wires.

December: Shh.

[Hideaki lowers himself, landing perfectly on the stage. He then rolls out his arms, as a black staff appears in his hand.]

Hideaki: I'm sure all of you won't be disappointed by my clever, unique acts. Now, for my first act, I will need a volunteer.

[February raises her hand.]

February: ME! ME!

Hideaki: Clearly, you want to join in on this magical event. So, how about the gentleman next to you.
