Well the vote ended with Hornet so here’s a little bit of his story. This story is kind of a oneshot? Combination of Hornet’s lore and Jax’s story.
Note: Hornet came after Pomni so during when the gang was on Candy Carrier Chaos and it was just Zooble, Bubble and Caine.
For Jax x Kaufmo shippers, lore is in this.
Hornet was a royal guard for his queen. But when she mysteriously disappeared, the rest of the hive made a new queen…but he didn’t like her. She wasn’t her original queen and wasn’t sweet as her.
He wrote, sang and gave speeches, anything to turn his hive against the new queen to find their original one. When the new one heard what Hornet was doing, she ordered a few workers to rip his vocal cords out as punishment for going against her.
This sent a warning to the rest of the hive to not turn against her. Soon the queen gave Hornet orders to explore the human world, hoping one of them would capture him and take him away for good.
During one of his explorations, he met a large snake while he was eating the insides of a child alive. It was one of the most gruesome things he ever saw and he actually did puke at the sight.
Originally, Hornet wanted nothing to do with the snake, which he learned his name was Henock, seeing him as ruthless and no care for others. But that view changed when showed that Henock was different when not cold and guarded. He was sweet, caring and understanding, well, in his own way.
But he did teach him a lot about humans and the things they did, just not everything. Shapeshifting into being human as well, just not fully. In order to shapeshift though, for Hornet, he had to eat humans and that he couldn’t do. Soon the new queen discovered that Hornet was hanging out with Henock- a predator to their species.
So the queen banished him from the hive and declared him that if ever came back. He would be tortured for the dead. Hornet was gonna stay with Henock but he was already gone. He tried following his scent but that only got him caught by humans.
They chained him. They experimented on him. They drawn blood from him. They did extremes on him. They pushed his body to the limit. His queen betrayed him. His hive betrayed him. Henock left him for who knows where or what?
He’ll wait to escape. No matter how long it takes…
Meantime however.
Jax came to the circus when he was a teen. He was scared and confused about everything and everyone. Caine, Bubble, Kaufmo, Ragatha, and others…
After a few weeks, or whatever close to that. He developed a huge crush on Kaufmo but put up the mask of being an annoying rabbit.
At times though, he did slip his persona to reveal hints of loving him. For example, if Jax hated something and Kaufmo loves the thing, then Jax will agree with him.
Finally he couldn’t take it anymore and confessed to Kaufmo in a murder maze when it was just the two of them. They were being chased by the angel thing from TADC episode 3.
Kaufmo didn’t see Jax in that way and knew they would separate once they escaped, but out of guilt, he went along with it.
After spending some time together, Kaufmo did start to love Jax in that way. They didn’t show affection in public for Jax’s sake. They did in private, whether it be watching a movie the VR world provided or getting…intimate. *Wink wink nudge nudge.*
After being stuck for so long- don’t ask for the years because I don’t know- Kaufmo started showing signs of being insane.
Jax tried to ignore the signs and continued being his boyfriend. Pranking him, being affectionate, anything to get Kaufmo off his obsession for the exit.
Sadly his efforts weren’t enough…a newbie shows up and before Pomni can meet Kaufmo, he has already abstracted. Jax couldn’t handle it, he picked the bowling ball as an excuse to escape.
Once he was enough distance from everyone…he leaned back against a wall, sunk to the floor, buried his head in his arms and cried…cried at not trying hard enough, cried that he lost his boyfriend, cried and blamed himself for it.
He went back to the others as an annoying rabbit again. Tormenting others with pranks and harshness that distracted them from their situation. From that day, he learned he can’t let anyone get too close…
Before this… Hornet finally escaped.
He ran down the lab, using his abilities and whatever strength he had left to escape the bad men. Used his stingers, teeth, venom, fighting skills and speed.
Used his knowledge on explosives to break free from the front entrance. He ran as far as he could, saving his wings as a last resort. He wasn’t home free yet the bad men were on him. Chasing through the forest and waters. He eventually reached a city and flew on top of a building.
When he looked down at himself, he realizes he has a tracker on him. He took it off with his teeth but didn’t realize he never turned it off. He hid in the vents of the building, changing to be a small size to fit through.
At some point, he went to the very bottom levels of the building. He changed to his normal size but didn’t realize the cameras. So guards down there tranquilized him and Hornet was knocked out…
You know the rest…
