Being stuck in a circus-like program and unable to get out is already freaking Pomni out. But now her hand spontaneously glitches and grants her a rather unusual ability? Even more so. But with access to pretty much the whole digital world at her fi...
The current scene where we find ourselves ISN'T in the present day Digital Circus. However, instead, it takes place 15 years in the past. In the main floor of the tent, 5 Avatars stand about; a long green and orange worm, a purple dinosaur with rainbow spikes on its back, an egg-like creature with a jester hat, a turquoise rat-like puppet, and an anthropomorphic yellow dog with a red shirt on. The dog currently trying to converse with an oblivious Caine, who floats nearby.

Dog: *hushed* Uh, is there any way we can get out of here?... What exactly is this place?!
On the stage nearby, a younger and more recent Kinger sits nearby, looking forlorn and ashamed before he's soon joined by the familiar fellow chesspiece, Queenie, who sits next to him.
Queenie: Another chess piece, huh? How are you holding up?
Kinger: *sighs* ....I just don't know what's happening.... We never made anything like this.
Kinger and Queenie: I just hope that...
However, both stare into each other's eyes, before they're hit with recognition.
Kinger: Wait...
Queenie: A-Are you...
Kinger: It's... you.
Queenie: *emotional* Oh, my God....
The two hug each other, while Kinger sniffles happily.
Kinger: *sniffles* I- I... I wish I could remember your name.
Queenie: Yeah.... Same....
Kinger: I'm... I'm so sorry I roped you into this with me.
Kinger lets out a small weary chuckle before he and his wife separate, the couple holding each other's hands as Kinger speaks.
Kinger: Listen... No matter whats happens, I promise, I'll ALWAYS-
Interrupting his dialogue, the scene cuts to 6 years after. Kinger is looking incredibly distraught while he stands beside an equally distraught and miserable Ragatha as Caine takes and sends an Abstraction, most likely Queenie, to the cellar.
Caine: And into the cellar you go! *drops Queenie into cellar* ....Golly, uh, we're running out of humans here. *laughs nervously* Now, don't you two go Abstracting on me, too! Hehehe.... Uh... Seriously.
After Caine disappears, Kinger looks down, depressed before he trudges off. Ragatha tries to go after him, but seeing that the chesspiece is most likely wasn't going to respond, she decided to give him a bit of space... at least for now. Meanwhile, Kinger wanders mindlessly alone through the circus. Suddenly, just as he passes the stage, a bipedal green frog with a red bowtie and eyelashes appears on stage, who looked INCREDIBLY confused as it spoke in a young woman's voice.
