Jax's Secret

I don't have a specific time where this story takes place, but it does take place after episode 2, after Kaufmo's funeral and Jax was the only one who wasn't there, so this is my fanfiction of what happened after that scene.

Pomni was walking down the hall, where she noticed that Jax's door was open and noticed that he wasn't anywhere to be found. At first, she thought that maybe he got abstracted, but then thought that there's no way because of his sociopathic personality. She looked to her left and right just to see if he or anyone else were around before taking a peek inside. She noticed that his room had a bed, a desk and some pictures of him on the walls and a few pictures of Kaufmo. At first, she was confused until she saw a framed photograph of them together on Jax's desk, so she picked it up and said to herself, "Jax? He was friends with Kaufmo? Why wasn't he at the funeral?" 

Suddenly, she heard Jax's voice behind her saying, "What the [%$OO!#] are you doing in here?!" Pomni jumped out of her skin, before it reattached itself back to her body as she quickly turned around to see Jax in the doorway and he makes his way towards her with a livid expression. She stammered, "Jax! I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...I-I thought you were--" Jax quickly noticed the framed photograph of him and Kaufmo in Pomni's hands, so he quickly snatches it from her, asking, "And what are you doing with that? That's mine!" Ponmi tried to explain, "I-I just noticed that your door was open and you weren't in, so..." Jax, interrupted, "What, you'd thought it'd be a good idea to barge into people's room and look at their private stuff? Didn't Caine tell you it's rude to do that kind of thing?" Pomni was aware that Jax had done that himself since he had the keys to everyone's room, but she decided to ignore that for now. She looks at the framed photograph in Jax's hands and back at him and asked, "Were you friends with him? Kaufmo?" Jax was taken aback by that question, then a moment later, he grinned his usual grin and started to laugh hysterically. Pomni was confused. Almost a minute later, Jax calmed down and wiped an imaginary tear from his eye. "You asked..." He tried his best to hold back his laughter. "You asked...if I was friends with....K-Kaufmo?" Pomni said, "Well...yeah," Jax laughed again, not as long this time while Pomni still had a confused look on her face. "Oh, man. You're even more of a loser than I gave you credit for, shorty," Jax said condescendingly. "You thought I'd be friends with a loser clown like Kaufmo. Ha! That's hilarious to even imagine. Quite the sensitive one, aren't you?" Pomni felt slightly annoyed at Jax, but she tried to stay calm.

"Then why do you have that picture and...pictures of him in your room?" Pomni asked. Jax's face quickly turned to scowling and he snapped, "That's none of your busisness. Now get out before I use Crybaby to tie you both up." He pointed his arm towards the door. "O-okay, but first I wanna know something. I hear you cry in here sometimes and you probably don't want anyone to know, so I won't tell the others, but...do you ever feel sad or lonely? Like you have no friends, no family or anyone who understands you except for Kaufmo?" Jax looks at Pomni with a surprised expression before grinning again. He asked, "Heh, you think I cry?" He laughs again before asking again, "You think I cry? Or feel, what was it? Sad and lonely?" He laughs again before continuing. "I was right about you being sensitive and now you're trying to get through to me like I have some sad, traumatic, angsty backstory that makes me act like an intolerable jerk? Well, I hate to tell you shorty, actually, that's a lie, I love to tell you, shorty, that that isn't the case. I've always been this way, ever since I was a human...I think." At the last part, he made an unsure face before grinning again. "So don't even try to make this more pointless by trying to get me to reveal such a backstory that doesn't exist. I guess it was fitting that you look like a jester 'cause that was the funniest thing I've heard in a long time ever since I saw kicked Kinger and Crybaby in a hole." Pomni was more annoyed and Jax took notice of that and decided to tease her. "Oh, what's that I see? Getting a little hot and bothered, aren't you? Well, good. 'Cause I like it when I see people annoyed and irritated. Makes me know I'm doing a good job being an intolerable jerk." He scowls again. "I still want you outta my room, though, so go." "Fine," Pomni says, turning her back towards Jax as she makes it out of the room. She turns back and says, "You know, Jax, ever since I came into this circus, I was scared and confused and slowly going insane, but when I made friends here, they helped get me through and now I don't feel too scared anymore. Don't get me wrong, I still find this who situation freaky, but I still appreciate the friends I made here 'cause they went through the same thing I did. Now, I don't know if you were ever like that, but that doesn't make it okay with the way you act, not just to me, but to everyone." She counted her fingers, listing out her friends, "Gangle, Ragatha, Zooble, Kinger, Caine and Bubble. In fact, you should consider yourself lucky if Kaufmo really was your friend 'cause I can't imagine anyone who would wanna be friends with a [%$OO!#] [%$OO!#] [%$OO!#] like you. You're right, this was just pointless and I shouldn't even waste my time talking with you. And you know what? I think you deserve to be trapped here the most, especially when you got tied up and gagged. Now I'm leaving." She turns to leave again. "Good, and make sure the door hits you on the way out," Jax responded. He stands with a scowled look with his hands at his sides as Pomni leaves the room, closing the door behind her.
