Everyone is in the main room watching Pomni hold her breath until she turns blue in the face. She eventually exhales, unable to hold her breath in any longer.
Pomni gasped out "I can't hold it any longer."
Jax said "Sure you can. We can't die from oxygen deprivation, remember?"
Pomni said "But, it still feels like I'm gonna die.
Kinger: Try not thinking about it."
Jax said "Or you could toughen up!" He pulls Pomni's arm "I wanna see what your funny cartoon body does."
Ragatha said "Hey, take it easy."
Jax mocked her. "Ooh, take it easy!" That's you."
Pomni said "All right. Here I go." She takes a deep breath. A few seconds later, her face turns back to blue.
Zooble said "All right, we've entered the blue zone." Now it's pink.
Jax said "Hey, there's something new!" Red, now... Goopurr said "Okay we're in the red zone." Her face becomes orange now. "Its %&#&ING orange now." Java spoke, curling an iron.

Next yellow
Zooble said "Yellow."
Then green
Gangle said "Green.
Then back to blue...
Kinger said "Whoa, look! Now she's turning blue!"
Zooble said "She was already blue." Her face rapidly changes colors until she exhales and tries to catch her breath.
Ragatha said "Huh. Guess the hue shift just gets faster."
Pomni asked "Why am I the one doing this? Why not one of you guys?"
Jax replied "Because something different happens with each person!" As he says this thought bubbles appeared on the person "For instance, Kinger starts glowing, Ragatha's hair noodles stick up, Gangle's mask starts spinning, Goopurr inflate like a balloon, Java's spots move around and Zooble turns straight."

Zooble said "My limbs straighten up-" Not all of them. In response, Zooble flips the bird. "Oh, %$!# off."
Pomni asked Jax "What about you?"
Zooble replied "He refuses to show us because he's a coward."
Jax said "I wanna keep the mystery alive." He points to the camera. "What do you, the viewers, think it is?" ...Correction: He's pointing at thin air. "The %^# you aiming at, Rabbit boy?" Java spoke, his usual aggressive tone present as he snarled at Jax "Finally loose your head, Trickster?"

Caine asked "Why is everybody just standing around when there's ADVENTURE to be had?" Caine was on the main stage "Today's adventure is... 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕸𝖞𝖘𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖞 𝖔𝖋 𝕸𝖎𝖑𝖉𝖊𝖓𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖑 𝕸𝖆𝖓𝖔𝖗! That's right! This big, spooky mansion has been rumored to be filled to the brim with paranormal activity! It's up to you to solve the house's deep mysteries and capture all the ghoulish ghost activity you can. And for the first time ever, you can..." He stops speaking. His eyes phase through his teeth and glance around the room.
Caine said "Where's Zooble? I made this adventure really cool and "m-m-matoor" just for them." No one knows, either. There was a low growling from Caine.
Bubble spoke backwards!ɿɘɈƨnom ɒ ʇo ƨɘɿɒmɈʜϱin ɘldiɿɿoʜ ɘvɒʜ oɈ ɘɔnɘibυɒ ɘʜɈ ni nɘɿbliʜɔ ɘʜɈ llɒ ɿoʇ Ɉiɒw Ɉ'nɒɔ I
Caine asked "...What?"
Pomni asked "The NPCs aren't gonna become self-aware in this one, right?"
Caine said "How should I know? I'm not the boss. Oh, wait, yes, I am! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Caine spawned the portal "Anyway, everybody into the fractal noise. It's adventuring time!"

Our heroes and Jax have ventured forth through the portal and into Mildenhall Manor.
Ragatha said excitedly "Oh, this place is spooky. I wonder how hard Caine's gonna go with the scare-factor?"
Pomni said "I hope this adventure doesn't end up being another horrible nightmare. I'm not really a fan of horror, and I don't really handle jumpscares that well." Goopurr said "Me neither. Lat time i got spooked it took me forever to get down." Flashback to show Goopurr stuck to the roof of the tent as everyone looked up. Jax said "Maybe I should..." Java then shocked Jax sending him to the ground "You helped enough, Rabbit."Jax said "Boo!" A spooked Pomni begins stammering in fright as Goopurr yowled then clawed at Jax. "Get her off! Get her off!" Java watched this  He laughed "Idiot." Jax got her off and he said sarcastically "Thanks for the help Java." "Shut it, before I snap you like a twig." Java snarled. Ragatha said "Hey, be nice to them. They had a rough couple of days.
Jax said "Then and everyone else. Right, Gangle?" A mysterious giggling is heard.
Gangle asked "Does anybody hear that?" The giggling gets louder as a ghost emerges in front of the crew. Pomni screams her eyes out.
Ghostly became suddenly very friendly "Hey, I'm Ghostly!"
Pomni asked "Wha?" Her eyes splat to the ground.
Ghostly said "And I'll be your guide today!"
Pomni picks her eyes up "Why won't they go back in?"
Kinger chuckled "I remember my first wild take. I don't know why they're not retracting, though." He puts Pomni's left eye back in the socket, but it falls back out. "That didn't happen for me."
Ghostly said "Before you continue on your adventure, you have to choose which door you're gonna go through! The door on the left is the NORMAL door!" "ℝ𝔸𝕋𝔼𝔻 WOW 𝔽𝕆ℝ 𝔸𝕃𝕃 𝔸𝔾𝔼𝕊!"
Ghostly said "The door on the right is the really scary door." "ℝ𝔸𝕋𝔼𝔻 𝔸𝔸𝔸𝔸𝔸 𝔽𝕆ℝ 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕌ℝ𝔼 ℤ𝕆𝕆𝔹𝕃𝔼'𝕊 𝕆ℕ𝕃𝕐!"
Ghostly said "It's up to you to deci-" Ghostly gets sucked into the vacuum that Jax turned on. Ragatha stammered "Jax!"
Jax asked "What? I thought we were supposed to capture all the ghosts?"
Gangle asked "Uhh... Which door should we choose?" In the background, Kinger continues attempting to put Pomni's eyes back into their sockets, but with no luck.
Jax said "Hmm, not sure. Let's try this out." He grabs Gangle's comedy mask and throws it at the door on the right, where it gets eaten by the door which suddenly came to life.
Gangle said "Aww..."
Kinger said "Don't worry, Gangle! I'll get it for you!" He leaps into the beast's mouth, oblivious to the fact he's still holding Pomni's left eye which is also wrapped around Goopurr and Java's legs. The three get dragged screaming in terror through the mouth as the door returns to normal.
Jax said "...Oh, THAT'S the scary door."

Back in the circus, Caine is still looking for Zooble. Caine said "Zooble, come on out! I just want to talk to you! Hmm... Oh, I know!" He snaps his fingers and Zooble pops up.

Zooble stuttered "What th-" Zooble scoffed "Could you have done that the whole time?"

Caine said "Zooble, I-I just want to get to the bottom" He puts his hand on Zooble's shoulder, but they smack it away "of why you keep skipping all my amazing adventures. You could end up really hurting Bubble's feelings."

Zooble asked "Uh, Bubble's feelings?"

Caine said "E-Enough about Bubble's feelings! How about your feelings?" He snaps his fingers again. The area turns into a therapist's room. Zooble lies down on a sofa while Caine sits in a chair.

Zooble tried to say "I-" Caine asked "So, what's on your mind, Zooble?"

Zooble said "I... would rather not." They try to get up, but get stopped. Caine said "Hahahahaha! That's hilarious! Go on." Zooble said "No, I mean, I've already told you what my problem is. You just never remember because... Oh, never mind."

Caine said as he holds his brain in front of him "My mind is a beeswax-polished coconut." Now the brain poofs away "Nothing ever escapes these cakes. So, what can I do to make my adventures more... appealing to you?"

Zooble said frustrated "See? This is exactly what I'm talking about. All you're thinking about is your adventures. It has nothing to do with the adventures. It's more just... Ugh, forget it. You're probably not even listening." Caine said "Zooble, look at this cool bee I drew!" He holds up his bee drawing. Zooble responds by twitching their eye at having their point proven.

The four land in a dark room.
Pomni groaned "Wha-? Where are we?" Thunder claps and lightning strikes as the room lights up, revealing the heads of Pomni and her friends mounted onto the walls as trophies.

Goopurr said "Oh...yikes." "Get off me." Java grunts. They got up then Java saw the trophies. "What the?" The gang walk up to a particularly ghoulish looking trophy. Kinger asked "I wonder what this thing is?" Java saw the tape. "Play it." Java spoke. Kinger presses play.

Mildenhall said on the tape "My name is Baron Theodore Mildenhall. Hunting has been a hobby of mine for as long as I can remember, although one could say it eventually became more of an obsession. The creature you see before you is one I've been pursuing for years. Not quite a man... but not quite an animal. Something... unholy. Something evil. I took it upon myself to spend every waking moment doing all I could to protect my family from the creature, hoping that when I'd eventually killed it, I would be freed from this awful feeling. This inescapable dread. I was wrong." The tape ends.
Kinger said "You know, I'm starting to think..." Pomni looks around horrified.
Pomni asked "How about we try to find a way back up to the others?" They turn around as Goopurr opened a door, only to be greeted by a brick wall. "Well isn't that something." Java spoke

Kinger walks over to a lift.
Kinger said "We could always ride this thingy up." Pomni tried to open it then let go going crazy "It's locked. It's locked- of course! It's locked! I LOVE that it's locked!" They open a door to the late Baron's office. They open drawers and check through his desk, hoping to find a way out. Goopurr plays another tape on the desk, startling Pomni in the process.
Mildenhall said on the tape "Tuesday, December 4th. Although I had shot the creature multiple times in its vitals and severed its head to keep as a prize on my wall... my troubles were just beginning. I took my eyes off the body for what felt like only a minute, and when I looked back, the body was gone." As it continued Goopurr was spooked "The creature was not dead, and it would be back to reclaim what I'd taken from it." Goopurr looked towards the trophy room "If anyone is listening to this, all I ask of you is one thing: Do not let the head out of your sight. You have been warned." The tape ends. Goopurr said nervously "Well, okay. Not creepy at all." Pomni held up a key "I got it!" Without warning, the lights go out. Only their eyes are visible in the charcoal black dark.
Kinger said "... This is some rather inconvenient darkness."
Pomni screamed after she felt something touch her "AHH!!! What was that? Was that you Java?" "Yeah, that was me...sorry."

Kinger asked "Wait who's this?" Then goopurr's eye closed a bit "That's my eye." Kinger said "Yes, but WHICH eye?" Goopurr said "I really don't think that ma-" he poked her eye again "Will you stop touching my eye?"
Kinger said "Oh, yeah. Sorry." They were quiet for a bit then Kinger yelled. Making the others shocked.  "Whats wrong?" Java asked Kinger said "I just remembered a really funny joke." Pomni shattered "A j- Y-You-" she sighed "Why did you scream, then?" Kinger said "Maybe it wasn't actually that funny..."
Goopurr said
"Oh, Jesus..." Java got an idea "Lets just go back to the other room. Grab my hand." Pomni said "Okay." They trekked through the darkness back into the trophy room. Pomni then heard a creaking noise "What was that?" "What was what?" Pomni heard the noise again "That."
Kinger said "It's probably just magnets. Or a boat."
Pomni stammered "...A boat?"
Kinger said "W-Whatever the case, I think we should be completely quiet."
Pomni said "I -- Okay, yeah. I agree. You know, you're really hit-and-miss with these things, sometimes."They were silent again. Then a fly can be heard buzzing, which Kinger slaps.
Kinger said "There's a fly in here." He repeatedly slaps, hoping to kill the insect.
Pomni stammered "Don't you think that's making a lot of noi- Oh, God, there is a fly." Kinger tried to slap it again. "Did you get it?" Java asked. Kinger said "Aaaaaand... Gotcha!" The buzzing stops. "I think I got him. I can't see my hands." "Your hands on my pec, Kinger."

Pomni asked "Wait you have pecs?" Goopurr replied "Yes, have you not seen his workout routine with rocks?"
*flashback*

Ragatha, gangle, Zooble, and Goopurr, was on a picnic blanket drinking a cup of water watching something. Pomni walked up "Hey guys, I was wondering if you've-" she saw them staring at something. Pomni asked "What are you all looking at?" Gangle replied "Not much just taking in the view." Pomni looked over where they were looking "View? What view are you talking abou-" She saw Java lifting rocks "91! 92! 93!" He tossed it away and wiped his brow seeing sweat "Welp, that was a good workout." Java spoke to himself. He wiped his face with his shirt showing his muscles. Pomni blushed then took Ragatha's drink and drunk it.

Pomni said "Oh yeah." Unbeknownst to them, a large pair of eyes emerge from the darkness behind them. The creature reveals itself with a roar. Its face is black and white, with red rings around the eyes and mouth, and razor sharp teeth.

Kinger asked "...I'm sorry, could you speak up? I couldn't quite make that out." "Yeah, I didn't get that either." Java spoke Goopurr shouted "Forget the fly! Run!" She runs to the lift and tries to put the key in the lock.
Pomni said "Come on come on come on come on come on come on come on!!"
Kinger said "Pomni, I think this might be the creature from the tapes!"

Goopurr grabbed a fireplace took and held it out like a
weapon "Yeah no kidding."

"How's that door coming, Pomni?" Java asked, actually using her name instead of some offensive nickname

Pomni said nervously "Almost got it." She went back to try to unlock it. "Come on come on come on come on come on come on come oooon!!" Kinger looks back at the beast. Its mouth is open for long enough to show many eyes inside. Kinger starts acting dazed.
Kinger said "You look beautiful, honey..." Goopurr asked "Kinger?" Pomni finally unlocks the lift.
Pomni said "Got it!" She looks back to see Kinger in his state. Goopurr grabs him to move "Come on!"
Kinger snaps out of it "Huh? Oh, yeah." They rush into the lift. "Prepare for take-off, 'cause this boat is going UP!" ...It's going down.
Kinger said "Huh?? That's not up! That's not up at all! Why aren't we going up?! UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!" The lift plunges below. "Ahhhh $^@#!!!!"

Back with Caine and Zooble...

Caine said "I DO NOT use my adventures to torture my guests! Any torment I inflict is 100% accidental, like any good war criminal!"

Zooble scoffed "We weren't even talking about that! I really couldn't give less of a crap about the adventures."

Caine said "Then what is your problem, Zooble?! I'm trying my best to remember, but both you and my brain won't tell me!"

Zooble sighed "...It's me, remember? I don't like... myself. I hate this body. I hate all these stupid removable pieces. I just want to find something that feels... good."

Caine said "Oh, yeah, now I remember why I couldn't remember. It's because that problem is already solved!" A box of Zooble parts pop up.

Caine said "Simply swap out your undesirable Zooble parts for better ones!" Zooble said "I've been trying to find parts I like since the day I got here." Caine said "So, back to the adventures!

Zooble said "Forget it." Caine asked ""Forget it"?" Zooble said "Just forget it. Caine asked "Forget what?"

Zooble said being brutally honest "Caine, nobody likes your stupid adventures." Caine said "Ha-ha! Good one, Zooble. Zooble said "Ragatha's just too nice to say anything. Jax just likes to %$!# with everybody. Gangle's too shy to speak up. Kinger's insane. Goopurr's tries too hard. Java will punch anything. And- And Pomni... She looks traumatized every time she comes back from one." Caine said "Oh, Zooble, Zooble, Zooble. Making adventures is my art! It's all I exist to do! All I'm... good at. A-And, uh..." he chuckled "...W-What you're saying could imply that I'm bad at the only thing I'm good at, and that..." His weak chuckling turns to stammering. "That'd be..." The area around them glitches out. Zooble asked scared "U-Uh, whose therapy session is this, again?" Caine said "Oh, yeah! We need to get to the bottom of your behavioral issues! I'm gonna show you some ink blots, and you're gonna say the first word that comes to your mind. Caine holds up a drawing of himself. Zooble reacts with a "Really?" look.

Back with the four. Their lift crashes down and they are flung out.
Pomni groaned "What...? Oh, God, where are we now?"
Kinger said "I'm not sure. A cellar of some kind." It looked like a wine cellar. "First things first, everyone alright?" Java asked, genuine concern laced his voice Goopurr said "I'm alive." Pomni said "I'm good." Kinger said "I'll be fine."

Goopurr said walking to a barrel "I hope they have something." She pulled a cork but all came out was dust. She coughed it out. "Oh god." "Empty." Goopurr said "Oh." She put her face in her hands "I know we don't need anything to feel stuff. But I feel like I needed a drink to feel at least something." "Its alright, Goopurr." Java spoke "Lets just focus on getting out of here." In front of them a few feet away lies a decaying corpse. One no doubt belonging to a Mr. Baron Theodore Mildenhall. Also in front of them is yet another recorder. Goopurr asks "Do we have to?" "Most likely." Goopurr hits play.
Mildenhall said on the tape "Things have gotten far worse than I could ever have imagined. My paranoia had driven me to the point where I was no longer the protector my wife and theoretical children needed. Jumping at every shadow, every noise. I ended up shooting the love of my life, mistaking her for the creature. It's ironic, isn't it? In my attempts to protect her, I ended up becoming the monster myself. Now I wait down in my cellar, no longer having anything to protect but my own soul. If nothing else... I will slay the beast that took everything from me." The tape ends.
Kinger asked "...How's about we take his gun?" Goopurr said "Yes, but who'll get it from the dead guy?"

They all looked at it then at each other. Pomni asked "Rock paper scissors for it?" "Ill do it." Java spoke, approaching the corspe He kneeled to the corpse "Come alive I beat you down, so don't please." Java stated, taking the gun. The corpse said "Okay I won't." Java was shocked at the talking corpse "Okay, Kinger, catch." Java tosses the gun Kinger caught it then checks to see how much ammunition is inside.
Kinger said "Looks like we've got two shots. Let's make them count."
Pomni said "Uh, yeah." A clanging noise is heard.

From the deep darkness of the pipe emerges a headless, naked, living corpse. And from the shaft behind them, the white-faced creature descends upon our heroes.
Pomni laughed nervously "Uh, Kinger? I-I think we may have a problem this way, too!" "Kinger, now would be a good time to act pal." Java spoke, getting in front of Pomni, fists ready to strike "Stay behind me, kid."

Kinger said "Just leave it to me. I can handle this." He takes aim and fires at the corpse, knocking it back and killing it. He then turns and fires the remaining single bullet at the large creature, killing it also.
Kinger said "Well. That wasn't so bad." Goopurr walked up to the body then saw something then lifted it up to show a wing with eyes "Uhh guys?"

The tape then turned on again. Mildenhall said "Which is what I would be saying if I didn't know that the creature was actually one of God's angels."
"Excuse me, what?" Java asked, rasing a brow.

"And anyone who brings harm to it will be dragged down into the cold, spiraling pits of Hell, where my soul resides. I apologize, dear listener, but I need a living host in order to escape the hall of the damned, and your bodies will be my only means of doing so."  "What?!" Javas body ignites in shorts bursts of Flame

Kinger asked "...Now, wait. How did he record this if he was in Hell?" At that moment, four sets of arms emerge from below to drag the duo into the realm of the damned.
Pomni shrieked "Oh, no! Let go of me!"
Mildenhall said on the tape "I hope you're ready, because the next breath you take down there will be your last, and your bodies will belong to me."
Pomni struggled to free herself "Let go of me! I hate this stupid adventure!!!" The four gets dragged below. The four scream as they fall

Meanwhile, above, Ragatha and Gangle are having tea with the ghost of Martha Mildenhall.

Ragatha sipped her tea "Mmm, good tea. Sorry again about your husband killing you, and everything."

Martha said "Oh, you know how men are. Always having the silliest priorities."

Ragatha chuckled "Don't I know it." She glances over at Jax, who has been tied up with his mouth covered under tape as a form of retribution for his behavior. He tries to speak with no luck, for obvious reasons.
Martha said "If your friends see him, I only hope he doesn't bore them to death with his endless monologues. That man could turn a 57-second story into a Greek tragedy."
Ragatha said "I'll be sure to ask them next time I see 'em." She gets up to leave. "Thanks again for the tea. I had a really nice time here.
Martha chuckled "Oh, don't mention it. Feel free to visit any time."
Ragatha said "Definitely!" She and Gangle leave, with a bound Jax being carried on a red wagon. The trio reach the exit.
Caine said in a voice over "C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S, my little ironclad waffle cones! You've taken the PACIFIST ROUTE, and you should be proud of what good people you are! Unfortunately, we still need to wait until your other teammates finish their adventure before I can grant you permission to leave."
Gangle asked "I wonder how long that'll be?"

The four have landed below in Hell. Goopurr landed on her four feet as her back was perked in fear. Java landed face first on the floor with Kinger and Pomni on his back Kinger said "Not really typical of what you'd think Hell would be."
Pomni said "We... are LITERALLY in Hell right now. HELL!" She gets up and walks around crazily. "Of course I'd be in Hell. How could I not be in literal Hell right now?" "Huh, honestly expected more fire."

Goopurr said "And I expected demons." Java then gets up and dusts himself off "So? Wants the plan?" Kinger said "Not sure, but I'm sure Caine included a way to escape." They walk forward to a swarm of souls floating." Pomni was about to step forward...
Kinger said "Hold on..." He ponders "Let me try something." He takes his left eye and tosses it into the souls. It looks around
Kinger said "Hey, there's actually a staircase down there. It could be a way out. Maybe it'll work for us since we still have our bodies? Though, I'm worried about what that tape said earlier."

Goopurr said "I'll go first, I'm the fastest."

Java then squints his eyes "No Kid wait-"

She runs forward, but stops as souls enter through her mouth. Her body twitches as if she is being possessed. Her face distorts and her eyes glow orange. "Uhhh, Kid?" 

The possessed Goopurr turns her head around, laughing maniacally making the three scared and shocked.

Goopurr said as her voice distorted "Freeeeedooooom." Kinger shouted "Goopurr!" He extends his hand out and grabs her, forcing her back towards him. Her body twitches on the ground. Java walked up to Goopurr "Im sorry about this kid." Java then socks Goopurrs face with a right hook "BEGONE SPIRTS!!" He shouts socking her in the ribs Goopurr asked as her voice was distorted "How's your wife, Kinger and your brother Java?" Java only socks her in the face again Eventually, the souls leave Goopurr and she returns to her normal self. She begins coughing and panting scared as her fur perked up a bit as she hugged herself. "You okay Kid? Need me to punch you again?" Java asked, standing up. Goopurr said "No, no I'm good." Kinger said "I'm guessing the souls are attracted to living things. Just want a vessel to be able to leave with. Man... Seven years of computer science for this, huh? Heh."
Pomni said "Why? Every day we spend here is one nightmare after the next! I knew it would end up like this!" She sits on the ground. "He- He just wants us to suffer." Pomni curls up and buries her face into her legs. "I really am in Hell..." Goopurr and Java looked at each other then at Pomni. "Hey, kid, how about we rest up." Java suggested  Overcome with all the stress and horrors she went through recently, Pomni begins to quietly sob to herself. Kinger attempts to reach out to her.
Kinger said "It was my fault we went down this path, wasn't it? I'm really... sorry for that..." Pomni stopped sobbing and wipes the tears from her eyes. Pomni asked "Why have you three been acting so different lately...?" Kinger just chuckles "I guess I have, but I haven't been the only one." Kinger then looks at Java, whose back is leaned against the wall. Kinger said "We're normally not too good with memories. But being surrounded by darkness always... brings us back to a certain time."
Kinger flashes back to when the three saw the abstraction take place. It showed the pillow fort Kinger said "Right after my wife had- had abstracted...and Goopurr and Java's siblings abstracted too." The three were looking at the abstracted people. "I don't recall the exact string of events, but we both ended up in the fort together. And it was dark. The darkness seemed to calm them down a bit. The harsh, jagged edges smoothed out, and she didn't seem aggravated anymore." The three reaches their hands out to comfort them.
Kinger said "They weren't the same as before, but they were calm enough to touch one last time... before they got sent to the cellar." The flashback ended. Kinger said "We're always taken back to that moment when engulfed in darkness."
Pomni asked "You had a wife? Like, here in the circus?"

Kinger replied "Yeah. She was funny, creative- really into entomology. I used to hate bugs, but... she somehow got me to like them." He chuckled lightly. Pomni turned to Goopurr and Java "You two had siblings? Like a sister and a bother?" "Yeah, Hella smart too, usually keep me calm and stop me from making dumb decisions." Goopurr said "Yeah, taught me everything I know. I was small and a little nervous about heights but she taught me to be this good at the ropes. Just so you know sometime things may not have the most cheerful memories, but... there are  ones you can at least have control over. We know how it can feel in this... circus. Sometimes it all just feels... pointless." Pomni said "Yeah..." "Heh, don't we know that." Kinger said "But it's not. Not if you have people who care about you. Good memories can do a lot. Hold onto them. And cherish the people around you. You never know when they'll be gone. In this world, the worst thing you can do is... make someone think they're not wanted or loved.
Pomni said as she scoots a little closer to Kinger "I'm glad you three are here with me." They sit in silence, enjoying each other's company in this time of distress." Soon, Java thought about the tape. "The next breath you take will be your last." Java recalled  Java then got an idea.   "What if, we just don't breathe." "Then how about we don't think about it." Pomni stammered lightly "If we leave and we go back to the circus... Kinger's just gonna go back to being crazy. You're not gonna remember any of this. Are you...?"
Kinger said "Don't worry about me." He gets up. "As long as you remember it, things will be okay. You're very strong, Pomni. And I know you'll be able to get through this. Just hold onto us." He held out his hand "We'll get through it together. You ready?" Pomni grabs Kinger's hand as he helps her up to her feet, Pomni held onto Goopurr's hand as Java held onto Goopurr. "You lot ready?" They nodded. "Let's go." They took a deep breath. They inhale, hold their breaths in, and walk through the souls. As Pomni's face shifts colors, Kinger starts glowing, bringing light into the darkness as he guides Pomni to the staircase on the other side, like an angel guiding a soul into peace, Goopurr's eye was popping out. Javas spots started shifting They soon reach the other side, exhale, and ascend up the staircase. The four make it back to where Ragatha, Gangle, and Jax are waiting.
Ragatha said "Oh, Pomni! Kinger! Java! Goopurr! Are you guys okay? "Was it scary?
Pomni said "I'm fine, actually." She notices Jax tied up in the wagon. "What happened up here?" Ragatha said "Uh, don't worry about that." Java walked up to Pomni then lightly punched her shoulder Goopurr said "She was very brave." "Was she? I--I CAN BARELY REMEMBER! WHAT THE $%%# HAPPENED?!" Java shouts, completely back to his angry and short tempered self  Goopurr winked at Pomni "don't worry it'll be okay." Pomni smiled then walked over to Ragatha. "Hey, Ragatha."
Ragatha asked "Yeah?" Pomni replied "I just want to say..." she sighed "Thanks for always being concerned about me. I feel like, through everything, I haven't really been appreciative enough about that."
Ragatha said "O-Oh! Thank you, Pomni. I just want to make sure you're doin' alright. You know, we care about you."
Gangle asked "Did you remember to get my comedy mask?" The four stood silent shocked that they didn't remember it. They four then all looked at eachother They said "%$!#"

Back in the circus, Caine is now lying down on the couch and Zooble is sitting in the therapist's chair.
Caine said "And- And now, I-I'm just starting to wonder if the "Wild West" was... e-even a real direction at all..." He checks his non-existent watch. "Whoopsie-daisy! Looks like everybody completed the adventure and they're coming home! Quick, pretend we weren't having a therapy session!" He quickly leaves.
Zooble asked "Okay...?" Caine flies over to the portal to welcome back the gang.
Caine said "Welcome back, my meowing milkmaids!"
Jax said annoyed "Don't ever call us that again." Pomni watches Kinger go back into his fort, as the others left to their rooms. Jax approaches her.
Jax said "Heh, so, what was it like being stuck with the nutcases?
Pomni said "It wasn't that bad, actually." Jax leaves as Pomni continues happily staring at the directions of her friends.

End credits played.
