Chapter Text
Caine was zooming around the circus, searching for any bugs, when suddently a flash of light appeared before an new member appeared out of the blue.
"Where the fuck am i?" The new member was a jester, with red and yellow stripes.
"Oh, hey! W-welcome", Jax greeted her, but before she could respond someone else came behind him and punched him in the gut.
"Hey loser, welcome to hell", Ragatha taunted her with an tap in the nose and faced Caine, "Whats the adventure for the newbie, Dentures?"
"OF COURSE! BEFORE THAT, LET ME ASSIGN HER A NEW NAME! YOU ARE POMNI NOW!"
"... Why?"
"BECAUSE I SAID SO! ANYWAYS, TODAY'S ADVENTURE IS... BUILD THE TOWER" Various blocks appear, aswell as an npc.
"Hey, im Evil Ming! You should assume im evil, but you also should assume i need help, my tower has been destroyed by natural causes and corruption! Could you help-" Ragatha kicked the npc and ran off to gather the blocks.
"Why is the bitch so angry today?" Orbsman tries to understand it as Jax finally gets up from the strong punch.
"I-im not sure, s-she is mean like that"
"Ill punch her back, dont worry mate"
"Okay, what the fuck is going on? What am i?", Pomni finally left her trance and got up.
"Uh, basically, youre stuck here now, thats your new body and your new name is... Pomni, was it?"
"I think so? Who is everyone?"
"Im Orbsman, hes Jax, the guy in the back there is Dictatorer" he points to him, which is trying to revive the fallen npc, "And theyre Bazooble"
"And that weird karen?"
"Ragatha, shes... like that, dont worry"
"Its fine i mean... ive dealt with 50 losers like her, shouldnt be bad, what are we supposed to do?"
"Were supposed to gather the blocks, but since the npc is dead, we can do whatever really"
"Im gathering the blocks, 'kay?" Bazooble ran off to gather some blocks.
"SOLDIER!" Suddently Dictatorer appeared behind Jax, startling him, "What happened?"
"Uh- theres a new member, s-shes Pomni"
"Oh, hello Private Pomni, nice to meet you, only tip i can give is to stay away from Ragatha, shes a bitch.", Dictatorer offered a handshake.
"Uh, sure, uh- Sergeant?", Pomni was hesitant, but accepted it.
"Thats right soldier, now lets get these bricks and build the watch tower!" He ran off.
"Its just a tower, mate", Orbsman grabbed a block and placed it down, a click sound playing and it locking in place, becoming static.
The group started grabbing blocks and placing them down, the tower slowly building, Ragatha eventually returned with two blocks and a broken bit of Evil Ming.
"Hey losers, i got two blocks but i also tortured that fucking npc to death"
"So cool, Licorice hair, i almost forgot you were supposed to build the tower with us", Orbsman gave her a glance before continuing his work.
"Be grateful im helping you at all, i could have just ran off into my room like always"
"It shouldnt be an exception, dumbass"
"And it is, so cry about it"
"Youre gonna start crying when i punch your ass down this tower once its done"
"I'd like to see you try"
"Ill do it when its finished, now stop crying like a spoiled kid and help us build the fucking tower"
"Nope" she walked away without any resistance.
"For fucks sake, ugh" he sighed then continued building the tower.
"Is she always like this?" Pomni asked from the other side of the tower.
"Yes" Bazooble, Dictatorer and Orbsman said nearly at the same time.
"Damn"
"Dont mind her too much, she stops trying if you fight back, Jax has a lot of trouble with her since he cant fight back"
"And you guys didnt try and help him?"
"We try, but some things are just unpredictable and we slip up, we've been trying ways to stop it for months but it just doesnt work"
"I'd say shitty people get shitty prizes, just do what she does and she wont have time to do that if she is being pranked back every time"
"I guess, its a good idea-" an sudden slam startled them as the tower glowed yellow, Caine popped in.
"CONGRATULATIONS MY FUCKING GANGSTERS! YOU HELPED- Wait wheres Evil Ming?"
"Ragatha murdered him", Orbsman pointed to Evil Ming's remains.
"ANYWAYS, YOUR REWARD IS A LARGE DINNER BY OUR CHEF BUBBLE!"
"Made with all the love i can illegally give *burp*"
"Welp, im going, see yall soon", Orbsman then skipped dinner.
The group sat down in the dinner table, it had exactly 6 chairs, the empty ones were all beside Jax, it would have been a pain for him if it wasnt for her grumpiness.
"H-hey, Pomni"
"Hey, whats up?"
"I-if you need any help, i-m here, okay?"
"Uh, yeah, thanks..."
They ate in silence, the only sounds being the silverware and the occasional chair repositioning, it was finished faster than Pomni was used to.
She went through the hallway, finding her room, it had her with a smug smile and glowy eyes, she stared at it before opening the door, her room was very based on a circus, with red and yellow stripes in the walls, and a large red bed in the wall.
She was too tired to explore yet, so she just dropped in, snoozing off in what felt like seconds.
The world was shaking, she couldnt find anyone, then the floor suddently curved around as she fell in a endless hole, she could see the hole's entrance, everyone looking down on it, as their voices echoed in the endless void.
"I guess she was never fit for a soldier" Dictatorer taunted, laughing off.
"Another loser, what a surprise" Ragatha gave the middle finger towards the hole.
"Damn, already?" Orbsman was seemingly confused, but also lightly laughing at the absurdity.
The void slowly consumed her as the world became darker... and darker.... and darker.. and darker.. and darker... and darker-
