On a sunny Monday afternoon, Peggy, Rayne, Isadora, Mahi, and Addison were out shopping for Back to School supplies for their junior year. As they were walking along, Isadora found an ad for the medium vlogger, Angelina the Apparitionist. Addison felt suspicious because she'd seen fake mediums on Facetube before.

"Oh come on, Addy," smiled Isadora. "This is going to be fun. Not as fun as the Fourth of July party in Cape Cod. I mean, we got all that party food at a cute little Japanese market. I mean, there were a lot of imported snacks like ramen, boba tea, and pocky candy. I couldn't get the flavor of the sushi samples out of my mouth. They were delicious."

"Isa," Addison growled, "we have that double date with Dagger and Liam on the same night as her show."

"Right," Isadora recalled. "They're going to take us to Wonder Eyes Roller Rink. We're going to skate together, then we'll do a slow dance. I hope they play a Backstreet love song. One of my favorites is 'All I Have To Give'; it shows that the best presents come from the heart. I remember the time where I sang 'Anywhere for You' at The Palace and Dagger was amazed at how well I sang it."

"We'll go for you, Addy," Peggy suggested, "because you could be right about the medium being fake."

"And maybe we should bring the junior seance group with us, Lucky Lass," suggested Mahi.

The kids were able to tell the difference between fake, real, singing mediums. They only came to make sure that Angelina the Apparitionist was fake or not. Rayne, on the other hand, had to babysit Eliseo, Elias, and Cassie while her parents and Elsie are out as a home improvement seminar.

Later that night, Mahi and Peggy were dazzled up for another date/babysitting job. "Wewe gowing to see a medium sizey?" asked Esme.

"A medium," corrected Peggy. "They're people who contact the dead, including Grandma."

"Weill Angelina contact Grandma?" asked Esme.

"I don't know," Peggy replied.

But as they went to her room at the rec center, they had another scarier medium as the main act instead. To Peggy and Mahi, they thought the scary medium looked familiar. As the medium known as Nora the Night Spirit was about to contact the ghost of Al Capone, her walkie talkie went off.

"Okay, Asy," said the guy on the other end. "Angel is in another room and distracted and ignorant just like you asked."

Hearing this, Peggy and Mahi knew that Nora the Night Spirit was an imposter. Before they could leave, they looked at the audience and didn't want to upset them. Peggy got a quick idea. "Esme," she asked, "could you and your friends entertain the guests? There's something off about Nora and Mahi, and I need to find out."

"Okay, Peggy," Esme agreed as she and her friends did their seance routines. Amalia decided to go with them so they wouldn't get hurt.

Before Nora could entertain them, Esme and her friends started to do a little star dance they learned from Colby. Nora was so annoyed, she left the room to find Zemunth and punch him.

In the parking lot, Zemunth was juggling cars when he spotted Nora. "Hey there, Asi," greeted Zemunth. "Is show over?"

"Yes, it ism" growled Asinorth, "and this is all your fault. You shouldn't have wished me good luck."

"That's right," replied Zemunth. "You have to say 'Break a leg' in show biz."

"You'll be getting some now, Asinorth and Zemunth," growled Mahi.

Hearing these words, Asinorth knew they were onto them. "How did you know it was us?" asked Asinorth as she changed back into her true form.

"How many girls do we know who gets annoyed by a giant's idiocy?" asked Mahi.

"Only me," answered Asinorth.

Even though they went through a lot of roughness, A.J. felt better, remembering that he wasn't alone. From the window, Rayne, Isadora, Addison came in while riding on Liam in his dragon form. They explained that Dagger had to cancel early due to the substitute DJ's rude behavior. "Good timing," Mahi stated, "because we need the guardian power now."

Both Peggy and Mahi threw as much lightning and fire bolts as they could. Rayne blasted bubbles at her, Isadora did whirlwinds, and Addison shot out flowers.

"What is that noise?" wondered Angelina.

Quickly, PRIMA changed back before Angelina could come out. A girl wearing Jamaican/gypsy apparel came out. She was Angelina the Apparitionist. This made her unhappy, and she immediately started thinking of ways to make the séance real.

Amalia then got out an old scarf that belonged to her late maternal grandmother. "Thanks to those junior seance clubs and tips from my mom Queen Lamia," she whispered, "we learned the difference between fake and real mediums. Fake mediums have assistants who are in pics of different seances, have microphones and cameras, and whatnot. Real mediums, on the other hand, contact them through hand-me-downs."

"Good idea," whispered Peggy.

Amalia came up to Angelina and gave her the scarf. Feeling it, Amalia could sense that her maternal grandmother was watching her in the afterlife. This could only mean one thing: Angelina was an actual medium.

Inside, Esme and her friends were wrapping up their star dance and sensed that Angelina was near. As Angelina came in, she asked Peggy and her friends if she could keep the medium thing quiet, because she didn't want to scare away the children. With one smile, they agreed not to tell anyone.

The next day, the girls were wrapping up on dress rehearsal and found a news message on their phones about Nora's exposure. Everyone in the studio heard about Nora's performance, including the rest of PRIMA.

New medium exposed as fraud by Angelina the Apparitionist by sensing magic and walkie talkie in her pocket.

"Well," said Rayne, "that will teach her not to steal the spotlight."

"Speaking of which," Addison replied, "Principal McLean is doing a spotlight inspection before the show, and we should leave before he gets cranky again."

So the girls left with smiles on their faces and safety in their hearts.

The End
