Cassie was running with Robin close behind. "Where are we going?" Robin asked "To get you some new clothes" Cassie said They stopped at a large building.On top of it was a sign that read "The Dark Corner".They went inside, thew windows were tinted so most of the light was blocked out.The only other light was provided by red bulbs,giving the building an eerie feel. Robin shivered a bit "Who turned off the cheer?" he asked "Don't worry" Cassie said "You'll get used to it""Now where to start" A girl with black hair and dyed red bangs walked up "Hey Cassie" "Hey Ember" she said back Ember looked at Robin sourly "Who's he?" she asked "This is Robin" Cassie said "He asked me to help him change his image,so I brought him here" Ember's face brightened a bit "So he's a baby bat?" she asked Cassie nodded and looked over at Robin who had a confused look on his face. "It's goth slang" Cassie said "A baby bat is either a young goth,or someone who is new to the goth lifestyle" "Oh" Robin said "Let me help you out" Ember said "Hey Tom" she called out A boy wearing a long black coat walked up. "Hey I know you" he said "We met at The Black Rose" "My name's Robin" he said extending his hand "I'm Tom" he said shaking his hand Ember walked up to Tom "Robin here wants to be goth" she said "Think you can help him out?"

Ember gave a wolf whistle "Wow" she said "That's some transformation" Cassie was enthralled "So how do you feel?" she asked "Different" he answered "But not necessarily bad""I still don't know how I'm going to pay for these clothes?

"So do you want to come hang out with us? Ember offered "Sure" Robin said "But let me drop my new clothes off at home first" They walked to Robins house.As they walked, Ember would sneeze every so often. "Are you OK" Robin asked "Yeah" Ember said sniffling "I'm allergic to sunlight" "Don't believe her" Tom whispered "She has a photic reflex""She sneezes in bright light" Robin chuckled a bit as he thought about Ember being "Allergic to Sunlight". Soon the reached Robins' house and were able to drop off his new clothes. "So what do you want to do on your first day as a goth?" Cassie asked "I don't know" he said "I'm new to this".He turned to Ember "Do you have any ideas?" he asked "Well, before we bumped into you, Tom and I were planning on going to......
