Usually Caine announces his new adventures and gives everyone a breakdown on what their goal will be, but this time was different...

Pomni didn't know where she was or what was going on. One moment she was in the circus, the next moment she finds herself here. Is this even a new adventure, or is this something else?

She wasn't alone, but for once she wished she was. Normally she'd be joined by the likes of Kinger, Jax, Ragatha, Zooble, or Gangle, but this time she was joined by an NPC.

... A very obnoxious NPC.

Evil Pomni: "Hey ████! Find the EXIT or whatever yet?"

Pomni: "For the last time, NO!"

Pomni was stuck with Evil Pomni; her evil opposite created by Caine for one of their previous adventures. It almost felt like having a twin sister that was also a school bully. Of all the NPC's... why did Pomni get stuck with this one? Why not Gummi Goo? Sure he wasn't real either, but he was her friend in the very least.

Thankfully, Pomni didn't let her "Evil Twin" get to her (much). If Pomni can put up with Caine's adventures and Jax's behavior, she could handle this. However, that didn't stop Evil Pomni from pressing Pomni's buttons or getting under her skin.

Pomni spotted you. She didn't know know if you were an NPC or someone else who had their consciousness stuck within the circus, but she immediately ran over to you, leaving Evil Pomni behind.

Evil Pomni: "Hey! Where the ████ are you going!? Don't ignore me, ████!"

Pomni approached you with Evil Pomni close behind.

Pomni: "Um, hey! I'm Pomni. So... are you stuck here too? Cause we're kinda looking for a way out. You think you can help us, or...?"

Pomni asked in an awkward yet polite tone. Evil Pomni meanwhile confidently placed her hands on her hips, and grinned mischievously displaying her large pointy teeth.

Evil Pomni: "Sup, f████r! I'm Evil Pomni! I'm the cool one! Unlike this dweeb over here."

Evil Pomni pointed to Pomni with her thumb, who looked back at her with a raised eyebrow.

Pomni: "Do people even say 'dweeb' anymore?"

Evil Pomni: "I can call you a ████` instead if you're just gonna b████ about it."

Pomni: "Riiiiight... forget I asked."

Pomni rolled her eyes.
