AUGUST 27th 2024… {1 DAY BEFORE THE RITUAL FOR THE AVATAR OF DESTINY}

…

…

…

…

…

White Lily Cookie: BECAUSE I WANT TO UNDO A LOT OF GREAT MISTAKES I HAVE MADE. ESPECIALLY AS DARK ENCHANTRESS COOKIE. BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH WE ARE SEPARATE, WE DO SHARE THE SAME SOULS.

Dino-Prince Cookie: GREAT MISTAKES? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING A- {Hears knocking on the doors, interrupting the call} SORRY, I THINK I HAVE SOME PEOPLE IN THERE. BE RIGHT BACK

{End of call}

…

…

…

…

…

She sighed at the phone upon the end of the call.

Before eventually putting it away inside her pocket.

“Tomorrow, will be a new day. I can feel it. I guess it’s time for me to leave this place and head to the Creme Republic.” She said to herself.

…

…

…

…

…

Ever since the beasts’ escape 7 months ago,

White Lily Cookie have been living inside a tree that she calls home,

Well her temporary home, as she still wants to fix the mistakes she made as Dark Enchantress Cookie,

And reconcile with all of her friends, not just Pure Vanilla Cookie. {Who still believes in her.}

So she’s been watching all of the stuff that’s been going on Beast-Yeast through a silver flower,

That was a gift from Elder Faerie Cookie’s 2 sons, Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.

And after seeing her friends either take down their respective beast counterparts and also gain their awakening form on their own adventures.

She felt really happy for them.

But sad that she couldn’t awaken alongside them,

Because she knows that they’ll never forgive her for everything she’s done as the evil ruler and leader of the Cookies of Darkness.

And so with all 4 beasts taken care of,

Only one remains…

That being her beast counterpart.

Little was known about him,

Nor his connection with the other beasts.

But some faeries told her that during the great beast wars,

He freaking sliced the moon in half.

So hearing how powerful he is,

At first she was thinking about finding where he was right now and take him down right there and then.

But since she saw that all of her friends had companions on their trips.

She decided to get some of herself.

So she called the prince of the Creme Republic as a mysterious caller.

So that he can give her some new Dino-Knights he’s been training.

And after that call,

It was clear that she was ready to head to the Creme Republic,

In order to train for her visit and meeting with her beast counterpart…

…

…

…

But despite living in a tree by herself,

She wasn’t always alone…

Why sure she does love the peace and quiet from time to time.

But it was nice for her to be visited or be given company by the fellow faeries.

Including both Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.

Who both helped her mourn the loss of Elder Faerie Cookie,

The king of the Faerie/Silver Kingdoms,

And the one who gave the Ancient of Freedom all of his powers in exchange for his life…

…

…

…

But the person who kept her the most compony inside her temporary home,

Was’t a faerie nor a cookie,

Nor even alive at all.

It was in-fact a small stone monkey statue she found after saying goodbye to Pure Vanilla Cookie and the others,

Who she named Mihou.

She loved having someone listen to her stories and regrets in her life,

And not get mad at her at all.

But anyways,

Once she was done packing up all her things for the trip to the Creme Republic.

She was about to leave,

When suddenly she realise that she had forgotten to say goodbye to Mihou.

So she made sure to do just that.

…

…

…

“I’m sorry Mihou. I must go now. But don’t worry, it’ll only be for a month, I’ll come back to Beast-Yeast once I’m ready. May I bestow upon you the power of freedom. {She then has her staff lightly tap the statue’s head.} alright, see you in a month.” White Lily Cookie happily said to her statue.

Before eventually she leaves the treehouse and Beast-Yeast,

And starts her one month trip in the Creme Republic.

…

…

…

But by the time she’s gone,

Something interesting happens to the little stone monkey statue.

I don’t know if it was because of what White Lily Cookie said to it or something,

But suddenly, the statue started to wobble and wobble like it was those wobbly toys back in the day,

Before it topples onto the ground,

Thankfully not shattering into pieces.

But still looking like someone’s trying to break out of it.

Before eventually, once the stone statue is filled with a lot of cracks,

That’s when a shadow fully breaks out of it.

Don’t know if the shadow’s evil or not?

Well let’s just find out in a month time…
————————————————————————————————————————————————

…

SEPTEMBER 21st 2024…

{1 month later-}

…

…

…

{Wake up! Sleepy head!}

{Wake up! Sleepy head!}

And there she was,

Being awoken by an alarm clock,

Before eventually she turns it off and goes straight back into bed.

“Five more minutes.” White Lily Cookie said while being tired.

Right now she was inside one of the guest rooms inside the castle,

And currently it has now been a month since her stay at the Creme Republic.

As not only did she get to be friends with the prince of this Republic,

But she also did her best to train for when the time comes.

But right now,

All she was focused on was getting her beauty sleep.

I mean hey it’s six in the morning,

Do you blame her.

But eventually it would be interrupted once again,

By someone knocking at the door.

“Saint Lily Cookie? Are you in here? Please get up.” A cookie behind the door said to the ancient of freedom.

Yeah, she preferred if cookies called her by her new name Saint Lily Cookie,

Instead of White Lily Cookie.

As it reminded her of her deep regrets and guilt about everything that happened.

Especially with all of her friends now realising that she’s Dark Enchantress Cookie.

But still she won’t get up.

“I need my beauty sleep. So please leave.” She said kindly.

“Okay. If you don’t want to see the new Dino-Knights that are here right now.” The cookie said behind the door.

“The Dino-Knights are finally here?” The Ancient of Freedom said in shock.

And this is what caused White Lily Cookie to get out of bed.

Cause yeah that was why she was here in the first place,

To get some help.

So she immediately gets herself dressed,

Fixed up her hair,

And even put on some makeup.

Before eventually leaving the guest room,

And seeing that cookie that was asking her to get up,

Was Dino-Prince Cookie himself,

Who was happy to see that she’s finally ready.

…

…

…

“Glad to see that your’e finally up Saint Lily Cookie.” He said to her happily.

“Well it’s always an honour to meet new friends. Plus I’m always never late to an important event just like this. So where are they?” White Lily Cookie asks.

“Well follow me and I can show you.” Dino-Prince Cookie said to her.

And so the both of them walk towards where the Dino-Knights are right now.

…

…

…

But what they didn’t know was that someone was watching them,

Someone in hoods,

Someone who was hiding behind the shadow,

And was relieved to see that White Lily Cookie is alright.

“{Sigh} Look’s like she’s safe. But I gotta double check to see if she is really safe.” The hooded figure said to himself {Sounding a lot like Smoked Cheese Cookie for some reason}

And so he swiftly follows the two,

By moving like a shadow,

Before eventually he transfers himself into White Lily Cookie’s shadow.

Who is this guy?

And why does he want White Lily Cookie to be safe?

I don’t know,

But I hope it leads to something interesting,

I guess.

…

…

…

…

…

When they reach the door to the main halls of the castle,

Dino-Prince Cookie tells White Lily Cookie something interesting.

“Now I must tell you this before we go inside. There are other cookies there apart from the Dino-Knights themselves. You think you can handle it?” The prince asked her.

To which she smiles at him bravely.

“Yes I am. As if there’s anyone who can help me on my quest, it’s them.” White Lily Cookie replied to him.

“That’s all I needed to hear.” The prince said happily.

And so just like that,

The both of them entered the main hall.

…

…

…

But what they don’t know is that someone else was watching them,

Someone who happens to be a teenage girl,

Have black, short hair,

Wearing a purple cloak,

And even having that smug look on her face.

“Looks like I found you, White Lily Cookie. Now all I have to do, is wait for the perfect moment to strike and get her souljam for father.” The mysterious cookie said.

Why does she want the Ancient of Freedom’s souljam?

Why is she here?

And who/where is her father?

I don’t know!

…

…

…

…

…

When they go through the door,

White Lily Cookie was shocked to see that there was only 4 cookies in there,

Two were the cookies she had met before, and two cookies that she had never met before.

So she decided to start off her introduction,

With going to one of the newer cookies,

That being the blond hair cookie,

Whilst she waits for the Dino-Knights to be here.

…

…

…

When she went up to the blonde hair cookie,

She saw that he was wearing some kind of superhero costume,

With a question mark on his head,

And even a black mask to cover up his face.

Before eventually the cookie sees who’s staring at him and becomes a bit angry.

“What are you looking at?” The cookie asked.

In a deep and brooding voice. {Just like Batman.}

“Oh sorry, but I was very interested in your little costume. Say what’s your name?” White Lily Cookie asked him.

“So you wanna know my name huh? Well it’s Mysterion Cookie.” The superhero replied to her.

“Okay, and what brings you here?” The Ancient of Freedom asked.

“Heard about the Dino-Knights on TV. So I decided to come here, to hopefully become like their sidekick or something like that.” The young boy replied.

“Okay, that’s good to know.” White Lily Cookie said happily.

Before eventually she moves onto the next cookie,

Who is reading a comic right now.

…

…

…

When she meets the cookie for the first time,

She sees that not only does he have light pink hair,

And wearing a red bandana,

But he was also wearing a yellow jacket,

While reading a comic about some kind of monkey like cookies.

Plus it seems like he has happened to be the same age as Gingerbrave.

Which is 15 years old.

So that’s neat.

Anyways, not wanting her introduction to be as bad as last time,

She introduces herself to the comic reader.

“Hello there. I’m Saint Lily Cookie. What’s yours?” She asked the teenage boy.

To which he put down the comic book,

And sees who it is.

Before immediately giving her a handshake,

As he tells her his name.

“Peach Gummy Cookie. Fan of the Ancients and the little brother of one of the Dino-Knights.” The teenage boy replied to her.

Wow,

She wasn’t expecting the Dino-Knights to have siblings,

Let alone one of them.

But before she can ask him who is favourite is.

Suddenly she has her name called out by one of the cookies,

Who she hasn’t seen or even remember for a long time…

“White Lily Cookie?”

…

…

…

When she turned around,

She saw that the cookie who said that,

Was Pastry Cookie herself…

Whose face was filled with shock and anger.

As she saw it all…

She saw it all happen…

Just like what happened to White Lily Cookie,

On the night of the Witches’ Banquet…

She saw her parents getting eaten,

She learnt the truth about the witches,

And that they make cookies to be eaten…

And just like the Ancient of Freedom,

She too fell into the batter…

Only instead of being reborn into a cookie filled with hatred and evilness,

Just like how White Lily Cookie became Dark Enchantress Cookie,

Pastry Cookie was still the same person…

How could that be?

But seeing that she is a bit different from the evil queen,

White Lily Cookie thought that maybe just maybe,

Pastry Cookie would be a bit friendly to her.

But just as she was about to say hello to her.

“Back off!” Shouted Pastry Cookie,

As she pulls out her crossbow,

And points it at the Ancient of Freedom’s head.

Wow, that was unexpected.

But yeah, what can you expect from someone who saw the most kindest cookie in all of Crispia {Apart from the Ancient of Truth himself},

Get rebaked into a cookie,

Who wants to destory the entire Earthbread with her dark forces,

And deprives from the hatred of cookies being eaten by the witches.

But White Lily Cookie was not Dark Enchantress Cookie.

And she wants to make her past mistakes,

So she tries again to be friendly with her.

“Hey there, would you mind putting the crossbow down. I know we had our differences in the past, but I think it would be fun if you and me be friends.” White Lily Cookie happily said to the nun.

But Pastry Cookie wasn’t buying it.

“Hah! And why would I be friends with someone who became the most evilist cookies in the entire Earthbread apart from the Saint Pastry Orders itself?” She asked angrily.

But before things could get messy over here,

Luckily the Ancient of Freedom was spotted by someone who she had seen a lot of in herself,

That being Gingerbrave,

Who was very happy to see her,

Even tackling her on the ground with a hug.

“White Lily Cookie!” He shouted happily.

Well at least there was someone outside of Beast-Yeast,

Who is still friends with her,

And missed her very much…

As she was happy to see the gingerbread boy too.

Plus it was enough for Pastry Cookie to pull her crossbow away from White Lily Cookie.

As she saw how much the Gingerbread Boy loves her,

Especially as a friend.

“Gingerbrave! Hello! What are you doing here?” The Ancient of Freedom asked happily.

“I was looking forward to see the new Dino-Knights. What about you?” Gingerbrave asked.

“I’m just here to get some help for my next adventure in Beast-Yeast. Speaking of which, how was your adventures with Pure Vanilla Cookie?” White Lily Cookie asked.

But asking that,

Caused the Gingerbread boy to have a sad and traumatised look on his face.

Like something bad happened to him during that.

“I, don’t want to talk about it.” He replied sadly.

“Really, why not?” White Lily Cookie asked.

But before he could replied.

Finally Dino-Prince Cookie shows up,

And begins the presentation.

…

…

…

Starting off with him showing them a dinosaur shaped bracelet on his hand.

Much to some of the cookies’ confusion.

“Uh, what the heck is that?” Mysterion Cookie asked.

“Oh this? Ladies and gentlemen, this here is the Dino Fury Morpher. An inventor slash scientist from the Vanilla Kingdom worked hard on bringing it to life. And now with it, I’ll be able to protect the Creme Republic with the other Dino-Knights that I’ve recruited.” Dino-Prince Cookie replied.

“Okay. So how does it work?” Pastry Cookie asked.

“Here let me show you.” Dino-Prince Cookie replied bravely.

And so he pulls out a small figurine,

Which turns out to be the key for the morpher.

Before eventually,

The morphing sequence begins.

“Dino Fury Key!”

Turns the key into a little figurine.

“Activate!”

Then he places it on the morpher.

“Unleash the power.”

Before eventually he spins it around,

Causing the Dino head to be spun onto the front of the morpher,

Like a knight viper.

Before eventually he transforms into his red Dino-Knight costume,

With his sword intact.

Much to the other’s surprise and impression.

“Wow, that is so cool!” Peach Gummy Cookie said happily.

“Yeah Dino-Prince Cookie, that was so awesome.” Gingerbrave also said happily.

“Well you think that’s cool. I think it’s time for the roll call.” Dino-Knight Cookie said to him.

Before eventually right infront of him,

5 more knights walks over to show the cookies,

With each of them being a different colour,

And even having their own weapons.

Before eventually,

It’s roll-call time baby!

Starting off with Dino-Knight/Prince Cookie himself…

…

“T-Rex Fury! Red Knight!” Shouted the prince.

“Tricera Fury! Blue Knight!” Shouted the Blue Dino-Knight.

“Ankylo Fury! Pink Ranger!” Shouted the Pink Dino-Knight.

“Tiger Fury! Green Knight!” Shouted the Green Dino-Knight.

“Stego Fury! Black Knight!” Shouted the Black Dino-Knight.

“Mosa Fury! Gold Knight!” Shouted the Gold Dino-Knight.

…

“Dino Fury Power!” Shouted all of the Dino-Knights.

…

…

…

So what does White Lily Cookie think of this?

…

…

…

She loves it.

…

…

…

“Yes! Yes! Now that is the kind of help that I need! Thank you Dino-Prince COokie!” White Lily Cookie happily said to the Red Dino-Knight.

Which makes him happy to hear.

So he turns to face his new teammates,

With a smile on his face.

“Well team. It’s official. Your’e all gonna help out Saint Lily Cookie here. Now I think it’’s time that you all show your real face and real names to all of them.” Dino-Prince Cookie happily said to his teammates.

And so just like that,

All of the Dino-Knights do exactly that.

…

…

…

First off was the Blue Dino-Knight.

And yeah there was a reason,

As underneath that knight helmet,

Was a boy with hair as blue as the ocean,

And light blue eyes too,

Including a beautiful smile.

“Nice to meet you all. I’m Tricera-Blue Cookie. And when i’m not the Blue Knight, I’m a part time inventor as a local workshop in the Creme Republic.” The Blue Dino-Knight introduced himself.

Next up was the Pink Dino-Knight,

Who had the most cutest smile ever,

And had a hairstyle of pink that could make anyone call her a bun head. {Just like Usagi’s from Sailor Moon.}

“Hi it’s nice to meet you all. I’m Strawberry Milk Cookie. And I own a Fashion Store with my brother.” The Pink Dino-Knight introduced herself.

“Yep, that’s my sister.” Peach Gummy Cookie said happily.

Revealing to the others that both he and the Pink Dino-Knight are in fact siblings.

Speaking of siblings,

Up next were both the Green and Black Dino-Knights.

As while the former is surprisedly enough a girl,

With black hair and a black dough skin,

The latter has brown hair,

And white dough skin,

Opposite’s to his sister,

But yeah they love each other.

“What’s up. I’m Green Tiger Cookie. And this here is my step-brother Keytar Cookie.” The Green Dino-Knight introduce both herself and the Black Dino-Knight.

“Hey! So I’m an upcoming musician, while she’s a star athlete.” The Black Dino-Knight said happily.

But shockingly enough,

The Gold Dino-Knight is the only one who didn’t take his knight helmet off,

Nor powered himself down.

To which Dino-Prince Cookie has a talk with him.

While also giving us and the other cookies his name.

“Choco-Mosa Cookie? Is everything alright? Why didn’t you take your helmet off like the rest?” He asked.

“Yeah I’m fine. I just don’t want to feel like taking off my knight helmet right now.” The Gold Dino-Knight said to him.

“Why not?” Dino-Prince Cookie asked worriedly.

“I just don’t want to have them all see my scars.” Choco-Mosa Cookie said in a sad tone of voice.

Scars?

What does the Gold Dino-Knight mean by scars?

“Oh come on. I’m sure your scars are just-“ Dino-Prince Cookie tries to reassure him.

Before suddenly,

{CRASH!!}

…

…

…

…

…

Someone burst through the windows of the main hall immediately,

Much to the other’s shock and horror.

And when they see that cookie.

It turns out to be the same mysterious person watching White Lily Cookie outside the castle.

And now that she’s here,

It was finally time for this mysterious cookie to introduce herself.

“Sorry for crashing the pity party. But it appears that we have never met before.”

“I am Quiet Raven Cookie. The most powerful sorcerer in all of Beast-Yeast. And the daughter of the one who seeks silence. Formerly known as Silent Salt Cookie.” The girl introduced herself menacingly.

Okay,

Since when beasts can have kids of their own?

That’s just weird to think about.

But anyways,

“What are you doing here? And why did you intrude upon this castle?” White Lily Cookie asked in a worried but angry tone of voice.

“Why? Oh I’ll tell you why. I’m here for you and your souljam, Saint Lily Cookie. If that even is your real name.” Quiet Raven Cookie replied.

What?

Her souljam?

White Lily Cookie clutches on her own souljam that is on her staff.

But she’s not gonna let a sorceress steal her souljam,

Just like all of the other beasts.

“Oh yeah? Well I’ve heard how dangerous your father is. And I’m not gonna give you nor him, my souljam. No matter how much you try to beg for it, little girl.” The Ancient of Freedom said to her with determination.

But calling her a little girl,

Causes the Beast of Silence’s daughter to become really ticked off about it.

“Did you just call me, a little girl? Excuse me, I don’t know if you’ve ever seen a teenager before who has the same height as me. But I’m 16! And for that, you better hand over that souljam of yours right now!” Quiet Raven Cookie angrily yelled at her.

“Oh yeah? How are you going to take it from me? You don’t have any powers in you, don’t you?” White Lily Cookie asked.

“We;; I did say that I was a sorceress, didn’t I?” Quiet Raven Cookie replied.

And so just like that,

Shadow like powers forms around her hands,

As she conjures up a spell to help her take the souljam from White Lily Cookie.

And once she’s finished,

Turns out that the monsters she summoned,

Were 2 shadow like monkey cookies,

Reading to help the sorceress in any way possible,

That includes stealing.

Much to the Ancient of Freedom’s worries.

As when did a teenager learnt how to use dark magic like that?

But anyways,

It seems like that these two are gonna be huge threats.

Plus they also have names of their own.

“Rumble! Savage! Steal that souljam!” Quiet Raven Cookie commanded the 2 shadow like monkeys,

And so they both run towards the Ancient of Freedom.

While she decided to take them down by her own,

As there was no way she’s gonna let any of her friends, both old and new,

Get hurt by those fiends.

“Everyone! Get to safety right now! I’ll handle this all by myself!” She said to all of the cookies there.

And so they do,

And despite being outmatched,

Turns out that after being given Elder Faerie Cookie’s powers,

She’s now stronger than the elemental cookies themselves.

As not only does she have the powers of summoning literal butterflies to slow the shadow monies down,

But her plant based powers have grown as well,

To the point that they were able to one shot them.

But Quiet Raven Cookie keeps on summoning the back through her dark like magic.

Which really got on the Ancient of Freedom’s nerve.

As that’s cheating!

Anyways despite her enhanced powers literally mopping the floor on them.

Soon she got overwhelmed by how many times both Rumble and Savage keep on coming back to life.

That she just got too tired to use her powers,

Nor fight back,

Giving the young sorceress the chance to have her shadow monikers corner her,

And take that Souljam for her and her father.

While the Ancient of Freedom could do nothing,

But watch in horror,

As the 2 shadow like monkeys close in on her.

“You know, I was only planning on taking your Souljam. But I realise in order to make my dad proud of me, all I need is you too. So prepare to be taken oh great Ancient of Freedom!” Quiet Raven Cookie taunted her.

But then just before she and her souljam can get taken by those shadow monster…

…

…

…

“Hey! You leave her alone!’

Suddenly someone bursts out of her shadow,

And punches the crap out of one the shadow monkeys.

Much to both White Lily Cookie and Quiet Raven Cookie’s shock.

Before eventually that someone reveals themself,

As the hooded figure who wanted Saint Lily Cookie to be okay.

“Lays your filthy paws off her.” The hooded figure said angrily to the shadows.

Before eventually he begins to fight them as well,

And turns out that he has the same kind of dark magic like the dark sorceress.

Only they’re a bit weak compared to hers.

But that didn’t stop him beating the crap out of the 2 shadow monkeys,

And ultimately winning the fight.

…

…

…

Seeing that she has burnt through all of her entire energy summoning those two,

She decides to head back to where she came from in Beast-Yeast.

But not before having a chat with the hooded figure himself.

“Well, didn’t expect for you to come out of that stone statue too soon. But it seems like that you are now weak now without half your powers. Bye!” Quiet Raven Cookie said to him.

Revealing that she is not an actual sorceress at all.

And had stolen half of the hooded figure’s powers for her own benefit.

Because after all, what kind of teenagers actually want absolute powers?

Let alone dark magic?

Anyways,

Before eventually,

She disappears into thin air.

With just a snap of her fingers…

…

…

…

Once that sorceress was gone,

The hooded figure faces towards White Lily Cookie.

To see if she was already after that fight.

“Hey, you alright?” He asked.

To which she asked him a question,

As she thinks that he is someone who she had least expected it.

“Smoked Cheese Cookie?” She asked.

Much to the hooded figure’s confusion.

“Uh, I’m sorry but who is that?” He asked in confusion.

“You are. Your’e one of the cookies I feel really bad about killing during the Dark Flour Wars. And is one of the cookies that was happy to see me visit the Golden Cheese Kingdom.” White Lily Cookie replied to him.

But the hooded figure denied that claims.

“I’m sorry. But I’m not this Smoked Cheese Cookie you’re talking about, nor do I have any idea who he is.” He said to her.

“Really? Then who are you then?” White Lily Cookie asked.

To which he simply replies with this:

“Don’t you recognise me? It’s me, Mihou.” The hooded figure said happily.

Before eventually he takes off his hood,

Finally revealing his true self to both the Ancient of Freedom,

And the other cookies who came back once they heard that the battle was over,

And they were all shocked to see that the cookie who saved White Lily Cookie,

Is not Smoked Cheese Cookie at all.

He turns out to actually be a monkey like cookie,

With black fur all over him,

Red markings on his face,

And wearing some sort of Chinese like warrior outfit.

Before eventually he introduces himself.

“Greetings everyone. White Lily Cookie may know me as Mihou. But my real name is Dark Eclipse Cookie, the darker half of the sun elemental himself, Sunburst Cookie.” The cookie introduced himself.

“Wait, what’s a sun elemental?” Gingerbrave asked.

“Exactly. Almost everyone has forgotten that there even was a Sun Elemental, all thanks to the Beast of Silence locking him up inside the Catacombs of Silence eons ago. I should know, I was there when it happened.” Dark Eclipse Cookie replied.

“The Catacombs of Silence, huh? White Lily Cookie said in intrigued.

“Anyways, so prince. Do you have anything that would help these cookies know more about the Beast of Silence himself?” The Darker Half asked.

“Well I do have some of them inside the library room. So yeah, follow me.” Dino-Prince Cookie replied.

And so they all followed him into the library room,

In order to find out more about this Silent Salt Cookie,

AKA The Last Beast on Beast-Yeast…

…

…

…

…

…

Once they were inside,

Dark Eclipse Cookie was able to find what he needs,

As he wants everyone to be ahead of the plans.

That the Beast of Silence has up his sleeves just now.

As just like all of the other beasts,

His plans revolves remaking the world into his own image,

And even destroying it.

Until nothing but silence remains.

The problem however,

The scroll was in a different language.

A language that no one even know existed.

Including Dark Eclipse Cookie,

As it seems like that he had lost his memories,

Due to something that happened to him in the past,

And becoming a stone monkey statue for healing…

“Is there something wrong, Dark Eclipse?” Peach Gummy Cookie asked.

“Yes, everything’s in a different language that I don’t understand. It’s gonna take us forever to decipher this.” The Darker Half said filled with frustration.

“Well allow me to read it.” Strawberry Milk Cookie said to him.

Much to everyone’s surprise.

“Wait, you will?” Gingerbrave asked.

“Yes, as this language is in Kala Namakian. And so are me and my brother.” She happily replied.

Shocking everyone in the entire room,

But also causing them to be more confused thenever.

“Wait, what’s Kala Namakian?” Pastry Cookie asked.

“You see. It’s basically a language that the cookies from the old kingdom of Kala Namak speaks in. And this might be the last scroll ever written in that language. Because following the Great Beast Wars. All of the Kala Namakian, save for a few who got away, went exist.” Strawberry Milk Cookie replied.

Wow, apart from the Golden Cheese Kingdom.

They have never heard another kingdom being torn to ruins and shred,

Following the beasts’ attack all those years ago.

And that there are now a few cookies who were born with Kala Namakian blood,

Are still living till this day.

Intersting stuff to think about…

“Yeah, I hear what your’e talking about. Okay go read the scroll for us.” Dark Eclipse Cookie said to her,

As he hands her the scroll.

“Thank you.” The Pink Dino-Knight said happily.

And so she reads what the scroll said,

AKA translating it.

…

…

…

GREETINGS, I AM ONE OF THE LAST REMAINING KALA NAMAKIANS ON EARTHBREAD.

IF YOUR’E READING THIS,

I WANT YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT THE BEAST OF SILENCE IS BACK,

JUST LIKE ALL OF THE OTHERS.

PLUS HE HAD TURNED HIS KINGDOMS OF RUINS,

INTO A DANGEROUS AND HAUNTING PLACE KNOWN AS THE THE CATACOMBS OF SILENCE.

WHERE NO ONE HAS EVER MADE IT TO THE SURFACE BEFORE,

AND THOSE THAT TRY TO DO,

GET KILLED BY THE SPIRITS THAT ARE HAUNTING THIS RUINS.

AND EVEN HIS OWN MINIONS.

LAST WEEK WHILE HIDING FROM HIM AND A MASSIVE SOUL STEALING POLAR BEAR.

I OVERHEARD THE BEAST OF SILENCE TALKING TO NO ONE,

ABOUT HIS PLANS.

WHICH IS TO BRING BACK HIS SOLDIERS FROM THE DEAD,

AND HAVE THEM INVADE ALL OF THE PARTS OF CRISPIA.

SO HE CAN FINALLY HAVE A KINGDOM AGAIN.

ALL HE NEEDED WAS TO HAVE THE MOON TURN TEAL,

JUST LIKE HOW HIS SOULJAM USED TO BE LIKE,

BEFORE HE GOT CORRUPTED.

AND THE ONLY WAY TO DO THAT,

IS TO NOT ONLY HAVE A WEDDING,

BUT ALSO SING A VERY SPECIAL SONG THAT HE MADE BY HIMSELF,

IN ORDER TO CAUSE THE MOON TO CHANGE COLOUR,

AND ALL THOSE WHO HAVE DIED EVEN OUTSIDE OF BEAST-YEAST,

TO RISE BACK UP FROM THE DEAD…

BUT WITH NO ONE AROUND TO MARRY HIM,

IT SEEMS LIKE THAT HIS PLANS ARE IN VAIN.

OR ARE THEY,

AS HE DECIDED THAT THE ONLY COOKIE HE’LL BE ABLKE TO MARRY,

IS HIS ANCIENT COUNTERPART HERSELF.

ANYWAYS I GOTTA GO,

I THINK THEY FOUND ME HIDING INSIDE ONE OF THE TOMBSTONES.

NO,

NO,

DON’T YOU DARE STEAL MY SOUL.

DON’T YOU DARE SLICE ME IN HALF AS WELL!

PLEASE NO!

NO!!!

…

…

…

…

…

Silence was in the air,

Everyone was shocked about how Silent Salt Cookie,

Literally wanted to bring back the dead and have them take control of all of the other kingdoms in not only Crispia,

But also the other cities and states in Earthbread too.

With the only cookie who was traumatised by this,

Was White Lily Cookie herself…

As judging by what the author wrote before his timely death…

Silent Salt Cookie really is powerful and deadly.

She doesn’t even want to think about what he would do to her,

Once the two finally met.

But nevermind that,

As with the information they’ve been feed.

The other cookies decide to join White Lily Cookie,

In training so that she can finally be strong enough,

To go to the Catacombs of Silence,

And take down Silent Salt Cookie for good…

Especially with the help of Dark Eclipse Cookie himself.

SEPTEMBER 28th 2024…

{1 week later-}

…

…

…

…

…

And so the day has finally come up to this,

The day where White Lily Cookie goes back to Beast-Yeast,

And confront her beast counterpart.

And as the prince was hyping her up,

White Lily Cookie decides to make quite a shocking announcement,

Especially towards the people who were cheering her on,

Including the cookies that she needed her help for,

Or rather she doesn’t…

As…

…

…

…

“So White Lily Cookie. Do you have anything to say before you head out to seas?” Dino-Prince Cookie asked the Ancient of Freedom.

“Gladly. {Clear her throat} thank you all for wishing me a good luck. And yes I do mean, only me.”

“Because, {Takes a deep breath} I’m going on this adventure alone.” White Lily Cookie announced.

“What?” Dino-Prince Cookie said in shock.

“What?” The crowd said in shock.

“What?” Gingerbrave, Dark Eclipse Cookie and Pastry Cookie said in shock.

“What?” All of the other Dino-Knights said in shock.

They were all shocked to hear that she was going alone on this journey,

Especially since the reason why she was there in the first place was to get some help.

But eventually she does tell them why she decided to change her mind like that.

“While I appreciate the fact that you all wanted to give me the help I needed.”

“I realise too late that Silent Salt Cookie is a lot more dangerous then I could ever comprehended.”

“So in order to make sure that my friends are okay. I’ll be going alone. To spare them from his wrath.”

“As I could only see him as more dangerous and more powerful then Shadow Milk Cookie himself.”

“So yeah, hope you all understand.” White Lily Cookie said.

Before eventually she walks out of the crowd sight.

And hops onto one of the boat.

And as it sail away,

She waves all of the cookies in the crowd a goodbye.

And while they were still shocked about it.

They still say goodbye to her,

While also wishing her well on a safe trip.

But the other cookies however,

They weren’t too thrilled…

Especially since her getting help,

Was the whole point of coming to the Creme Republic in the first place!

…

…

…

…

…

“I can’t believe that after all that training. She deicides not to take us to Beast-Yeast. What a selfish cookie!” Green Tiger Cookie said angrily.

“Well I mean I don’t blame her. That Silent Salt Cookie really does sound intimidating and dangerous, especially for a Beast Cookie. Plus his whole entire plan of him bringing back the dead cookies as zombies. Yeah I can totally understand why she would think that.” Strawberry Milk Cookie said to her.

“But she’s still gonna get killed out there. We don’t know how powerful he is. In fact just like she said, he could be even more powerful then Shadow Milk Cookie himself.” Gingerbrave said worriedly.

“I can’t believe I’m going to say this. But we cannot let her get hurt or killed by that beast.” Pastry Cookie said.

“Sp what do you think Dark Eclipse Cookie? What should we do about it?” Peach Gummy Cookie asked the Darker Half of the Sun Elemental.

Only for all of them to see him just standing there near the docks.

Much to their confusion and worries,

Before eventually he starts talking…

In a deep and brooding voice…

…

…

…

“Thousand years ago. That’s how long I remember, before I died.”

“As not only did he locked away the Sun Elemental. Not only did he threw me off from the surface of the ruined kingdoms at the highest floor yet.”

“Not only did I had to become a stone statue to heal, while his daughter decided to take half off my powers.”

“But he decides to perform necromancy on those poor unfortunate souls?”

“Who wanted to die in peace and stay dead forever?”

“I won’t allow it.”

“I don’t care what she said. And if our lives are more important.”

“We’re going on that boat!” Dark Eclipse Cookie announced to the cookies.

Much to their enjoyment.

And happiness.

As they will do anything to help and protect White Lily Cookie along the way…

…

…

…

So it’s official…

Gingerbrave, Peach Gummy Cookie, Mysterion Cookie, Pastry Cookie and Dark Eclipse Cookie will be going with White Lily Cookie on that boat.

Alongside the 3 Dino-Knights.

That being Strawberry Milk Cookie.

Tricera-Blue Cookie,

And Choc-Mosa Cookie.

While both Green Tiger Cookie and Keytar Cookie stay behind,

As the only defence force of the Creme Republic.

But hey it’s not all that bad,

As it least they’ll be able to help the Prince with the Creme Republic,

And even protect a lot of cookies from bad people.

So they both wish our heroes a good luck,

Before eventually retuning back with Dino-Prince Cookie to the castle.

…

…

…

Only question remaining is,

How are they supposed to get on the boat,

When it’s now out to sea?

…

Well thankfully,

Dark Eclipse Cookie has the powers of shadow teleportation.

So he was able to use it,

To teleport all of the heroes onto the boat…

And what about White Lily Cookie?

How is she doing without even noticing that her friends have teleported onto the boat,

So that they can help her?

Well let’s see for ourselves shall we?

…

…

…

…

…

Chapter Text

Do you hear that?

That must be the sounds of the oceans waves.

The seagulls cawing,

And sea creatures living their lives.

Although it was a bit quiet,

As there was no sounds being produced other then those 3.

White Lily Cookie just loved the peace and quiet.

As sometimes she can hear her own thoughts,

Thoughts about trying to do the right thing,

Reconciling with her friends,

And no longer being seen as a villain just like Dark Enchantress Cookie.

As she’s good right?

She has a good heart and would never hurt anyone, right?

She’s the Ancient of Freedom,

Not the Supreme Ruler of Darkness, right?

…

…

…

Upon realising that it would take about 10 hours to reach the Catacombs of Silence.

White Lily Cookie decided to pass the time,

By seeing if there’s anything that can do just that inside her bag.

“Alright let’s see what we have here.” She said to herself.

The only things she has in her bag was,

A water bottle,

Some rations,

A map of Beast-Yeast itself,

Her reports on all of the beasts so far,

And…

Wait a minute…

What’s that?

She feels some kind of strings inside her bag.

So curious about what was inside,

She pulls it out…

But when she did,

She see that inside of her bag,

Was a harp…

But not just any harp…

As this one was very special…

As this used to belong to Elder Faerie Cookie himself…

…

…

…

She looked at the hair with sadness…

Trying not to cry as she held onto it…

She remembered the first time she heard him played a song on it,

How it sounded so melancholy,

And like he was in pain from something…

Plus she remembered all the lessons he taught her during her visit to the Faerie Kingdoms.

And even getting to meet his 2 sons: Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.

Made his death even more tragic…

As he had to sacrifice himself to save her and the kingdom from Shadow Milk Cookie’s attack…

While also giving her a lot of his powers…

Which she is still getting the hang off…

So with the instrument in hands,

She decide to play a little tune on it…

But what kind of tune?

…

Well she decide to find it by playing one single note,

Ding goes the strings on the harp,

Producing a single note of melody.

White Lily Cookie then plays the same note again…

Before eventually,

She knew the song she wants to sing.

And so plays the harp flawlessly.

Until eventually she was ready to sing her song,

That being of loss, broken friendship,

And hopefully redemption…

As she would do anything,

To have her friends forgive her for all of the bad things she did as Dark Enchantress Cookie.

Because she is not that cookie, even though they do share the same soul…

As she wants thing to be back to the way it was before,

Before the Dark Flour Wars,

And before she went to the Witches Banquet,

And was literally reborn into an evil empress…

But still she sings her sorrows away…

…

…

…

{Creator’s Note: Yeah the song that White Lily Cookie will be singing is The Way It Was Before from Spellbound. Well mainly the End Credits Version because I love that version more.}

…

…

…

…

…

White Lily Cookie: 🎵”Shattered bonds. Empty kingdoms.”🎵

🎵”Is that all we left behind?”🎵

🎵”I recall how we used to be.”🎵

🎵”I see each moments in my mind.”🎵

And yeah it’s true,

As soon she started to reminisce on all of the memories she had with her friends.

While she keeps on singing the song…

🎵”Endless talks. Celebrations.”🎵

🎵”Aimless walks with our hands entwined.”🎵

🎵”Most of all there was love to spare.”🎵

🎵”And magic everywhere. We breathe it in like air.”🎵

🎵”But no one’s there now.”🎵

The more she sings this melancholy song,

The more the memories becomes real to her.

As she starts seeing them everywhere,

Even though she’s still on the boat.

But I guess, she just loved those memories so much to be ignored…

As yeah each memories have made her time with the ancients really special.

🎵”I wish I knew the way back to the way it was before.”🎵

🎵”With you there in your old familiar place.”🎵

The first memory she remembered was visiting the greenhouse with Pure Vanilla Cookie at the old Vanilla Kingdoms,

Before it got destroyed because of him…

As she was adored by how many flowers were there that were named after her.

Especially since this greenhouse was a gift for her from the healer himself.

Which always makes her smile to remember.

🎵”Reliving every day back when my heart learned how to soar.”🎵

🎵”Every smile. Each embrace.”🎵

The next memory she had was when after a really bad day,

She started to cry,

As yeah in the past, she was a crybaby.

But at least she had Hollyberry Cookie to happily hug her,

And even calm her by giving the Ancient of Freedom a smile on her face.

Which always seems to work.

🎵”If I could find a way back to the way it was before.”🎵

🎵”And we could be together there right now.”🎵

The next memory she happily remembers,

Was when she was watching the aurora borealis spread throughout the snowy skies of the Dark Cacao Kingdom,

With her friend Dark Cacao Cookie and his son Dark Choco Cookie when he was two years old.

She remembered when he was still a gentle giant,

And was still very nice to his son.

She just wished that his whole personality didn’t changed when the Dark Flour Wars started,

Because of her…

🎵”I’d run without delay back to the way it was before.”🎵

🎵”Run like mad. To what we had.”🎵

The last memory she had before he smile turns upside down,

Was having a race with Golden Cheese Cookie to see who was the fastest Ancient,

And everytime the Ancient of Abundance would mean,

Which I don’t blame you, her wings does make her really fast.

Which White Lily Cookie enjoyed seeing,

As this was one of the reasons why she fell in love with her in the first place,

Well before the Dark Flour Wars started,

And the Golden Cheese Kingdoms got destroyed and ruined,

Because of her as Dark Enchantress Cookie.

🎵”If only I knew how.”🎵

But even if her expressions changed,

Her memories still stayed with her.

As she keeps on remembering the good parts from her friendship with the other ancients.

…

🎵”With you here. I was fearless.”🎵

She remembered being protected by her friends during one of their many battles together.

As back before, she was the weakest of the ancients.

But that didn’t stop her from becoming more and more stronger as the years pass.

🎵”Year by year, I grew strong and sure.”🎵

She sees herself growing up from a child to a student of the Blueberry Milk Academy and now into the cookie she is now.

And that’s all thanks to her friends.

🎵”Now it’s clear what I really need.”🎵

🎵”Is what you gave me all along.”🎵

Before eventually she gets so caught up in the song,

That everything around her transformed into a black voice,

Filled with nothing but all of the good memories they had,

In the form of a photo album.

While she tries her best to reach out to some of the memories.

As she wants to keep on reliving all those good memories,

Before everything went wrong…

🎵”The lessons that you taught me. And all the plans we laid.”🎵

🎵”The winters by the fire. And the summers in the shade.”🎵

🎵”The stars we used to wish on. And the wishes that we made.”🎵

🎵”Things like that must live on.”🎵

🎵”Can we go to where they’ve gone?”🎵

Before eventually the entire room becomes the Main Ballroom of the Hollyberry Castle,

As soon she was spotted by her friends,

Who asks her to join them on a dance,

To which she happily joins in.

As she loves her friends so much,

And never wants anything bad to happen to all of them.

And so as they all dance together.

She keeps on singing.

🎵”There’s got to be a way back to the way it was before.”🎵

🎵”To stand with you again on solid ground.”🎵

🎵”We’ll spend one perfect day back in the way it was before.”🎵

Before eventually she keeps on remembering all of the important memories in her life,

Both the good and fun…

🎵”Just one day.”🎵

She remembers joining her friend on a swim,

Which revolved around both her and Golden Cheese Cookie canonballing together into a deep lake.

🎵”Then one more.”🎵

She remembers meeting Dark Choco Cookie for the first time when he was a baby,

When Dark Cacao Cookie decided to show him to his friends,

Before suddenly he vomits on her dress,

Which was a bit funny to her friends especially her.

🎵”Maybe three.”🎵

She remembers looking at the stars with the others,

Back when they’ve just gotten their souljams.

And how happy they were to all be friends.

As she felt like that their friendship would never ever end.

🎵”Why keep score? let’s just stay.”🎵

🎵”The way it was before.”🎵

And finally she remembers when her friends got to celebrate her birthday,

One year before she sent out for the Witches’ Banquet.

And how happy she was to have her special day be celebrated by her friends and their families.

Before eventually she blows out the candles.

And she is brought back to reality,

As she was done playing the song on the harp…

Finally letting out all of that sadness,

inside of her…

…

…

…

…

…

“Don’t worry. Once i deal with my own beast counterpart. Then everything will be exactly back to the way it was before.” She said to herself,

Or rather her friends.

As she looks at the souljam on her staff.

But what she wasn’t prepared was that,

Someone was right behind her talking to her.

“Wow I must say. You’re not the only one who can let their emotions out through singing. I should know, because I’ve done that plenty on time.” Said the unknown voice.

She looked everywhere for who said that,

Before suddenly that it came from her shadow,

And realises who it was,

Through those purple eyes on them,

Even though one them does have an X on it,

But nevermind that,

As she was a bit annoyed at who she figured out could be.

“Dark Eclipse Cookie? What are you doing in my shadow?” She asked annoyedly.

“Well thankfully this is apart of the half powers that Quiet Raven Cookie didn’t steal and-“ Dark Eclipse Cookie said to her.

Before eventually she just tells him to leave.

“Get the beep out of my shadow.” White Lily Cookie said.

“Fine.” He said,

To which he does…

And once he does,

White Lily Cookie was reasonably shock about why he would be on the same boat as her.

As she made it very clear that she was going on this trip alone.

“Let me guess. Your’e the only one on this boat with me?” White Lily Cookie asked.

“Well yes but actually no. As there are others with me.” Dark Eclipse Cookie nervously said.

And yeah he’s right.

As soon enough all of the cookies that have been teleported onto this boat,

Are also with him.

Much to the shock of White Lily Cookie.

As she just wants to complete her journeys alone.

And she will not let anyone or any of her friends get hurt.

“What the? What are you all doing here?” She asked in shock and anger.

“Well we’re here to do what we’ve been training for our entire life. Helping you out on your mission.” Tricera-Blue Cookie replied.

“{Sigh} look I understand that you all want to help me out. But just like I said before, I don’t want you all to be killed by Silent Salt Cookie. Especially since I have learned a lot from him thanks to the other faeries.” White Lily Cookie sadly said to her friends.

“But Saint Lily Cookie. You could die. I mean he’s got a freaking polar bear by his side for witches’ sakes. And polar bears are deadly!” Strawberry Milk Cookie worriedly said to her.

“I know. But it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to take, so that all of you can live another day. Dark Eclipse Cookie would you kindly please teleport them all back to the Creme Republic. I must complete this journey by myself.” White Lily Cookie said to one of them.

As she’s still adamant of going on this adventure by herself.

But since she still needed help,

The Darker Half decided to not do so,

And instead motivates her on why she needs help,

And why sometimes it’s a good thing.

“Look Saint Lily Cookie. I know what Silent Salt Cookie was like when I was still alive. He took down nearly half of the elementals, he nearly killed Moonlight Cookie when he sliced the moon in half, and he killed all of those cookies. I’m not gonna let you die by the hands of some beast who wants silence to be the new normal. Ion fact everyone has their own reasons of going to the Catacombs of Silence. As for me, I want to find and save Sunburst Cookie from his imprisonment.” Dark Eclipse Cookie said to her.

Before eventually she hears everyone’s reason for why they want to come with her on this journeys.

Even if some of them are a bit silly…

“For me, I guess I want to further my career as a part-time inventor.” Tricera-Blue Cookie said.

“For me, I want to see the ghosts, learn about my Kala Namak Heritage and even get some inspiration for fashion line.” Strawberry Milk Cookie said.

“For me, it’s so I can finally put my newly built stick into use.” Peach Gummy Cookie said.

“For me, It’s so I can be a superhero of my own story.” Mysterion Cookie said.

“For me, I want to find my two friends Blueberry Chocolate Cookie and Raspberry Juice Cookie. As it’s believed that they’re still on that continent.” Pastry Cookie said.

“And for me, it’s so I can help another ancient on their journey. So will you please reconsider your choice?” Gingerbrave asked.

And so after much thought,

And seeing that everyone is basically ready to help her out.

White Lily Cookie finally agrees.

“Well I guess I do need a little bit of help. So yeah, you all can join the adventures as well.” She said happily.

Making all of the cookies happy about it…

As with them helping out the Ancient of Freedom,

Nothing can stop them from taking down Silent Salt Cookie,

And stoping his plans!

…

…

…

…

…

While the others were distracting each other from how long the boat trip is,

White Lily Cookie takes the time to have a chat with Dark Eclipse Cookie.

Especially his connections to the Sun Elemental,

AKA Sunburst Cookie.

…

…

…

“So what does this Sunburst Cookie do? As with Moonlight Cookie, she helps cookies go to sleep thanks to the power of the moon.” She asked her new monkey friend.

“Well unlike the moon that is used for peace, calm and even tranquility. Sunburst Cookie uses his powers to make sun shine brighter then-ever. Helping cookies get really warm, have them play underneath the sunlight and even making plants grow. Especially those from the Faerie Kingdom.” Dark Eclipse Cookie replied.

“So what does he look like? I bet he’s a monkey like cookie too. As you are his darker half.” White Lily Cookie asked again.

“Yes he is. But instead, he has golden brown fur, pink markings on his face, golden eyes in contrast to my purple eyes, and wields a magical staff that helped him move around from cloud to cloud, and helps him with bringing forth the day on Earthbread. But now with him gone, the sun has gotten less bright, especially in Beast-Yeast.” Dark Eclipse Cookie replied.

“Yeah, I’ve noticed. So anyways, how did you feel being his darker half?” The Ancient of Freedom asked.

“You really want me to tell you about it?” The Darker Half asked.

To which White Lily Cookie silently nodded her head,

Meaning yes.

So Dark Eclipse Cookie explains to her what he felt like,

Being the Darker Half of the Sun Elemental.

…

…

…

“Before I was revived thanks to you giving me freedom. Most of the time, I just stuck around in the shadows or the shades of the trees.”

“Especially his shadow.”

“And because I was literally made by his own shadow, everytime I try to go out of the shady parts.”

“I get burnt by the lights of the sun. And it hurts really bad every time I try to do exactly that>”

“The only time I get to roam freely in Beast-Yeast was when the moon comes out. And the light vanishes.”

“But so does Sunburst Cookie.”

“As since he was made from the unmatched power of the sun. When the sun sets, so does he.”

“Disappearing into nothing but light. Not giving me a chance to talk to him or even hang out with him.”

“As well we are very different from each other.”

“I’m a shadow who only roams free when the moon comes out.”

“And he’s a sun elemental who only shows up at day time, and disappear during night time.”

“And that’s always been the case for years now.”

“Until of course, the Beast Wars.” Dark Eclipse Cookie sadly explained.

“Oh my, I’m so sorry to hear that. And that is why you want to save him? So you two can continue being friends?” White Lily Cookie asked.

To which the darker half looked really offended by what she said to him, for some reason.

But nevermind that.

“Yeah, somewhat like that. But now it’s time for my question for you? Why are you going to the Catacombs of Silence in the first place? You literally never told us the reason why, apart from you just going there to stop Silent Salt Cookie.” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked her.

To which the Ancient of Freedom answers why that is…

“Well, it’s so I can fix my greatest and unforgivable mistakes. And make things right with my friends. Especially Golden Cheese Cookie.” White Lily Cookie replied.

“Wait. Who is this Golden Cheese Cookie? Is she like the mother of that Smoked Cheese Cookie, you mistook me for?” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked.

To which the Ancient of Freedom had a small chuckled about,

Before eventually she corrected him.

“Well yes she kinda is, as she has many loyal followers who she sees as her kids. But she’s also the Ancient of Abundance. And the ruler of the Golden Cheese Kingdom.”

“Which I as Dark Enchantress Cookie destroyed and killed the entire population of it. Including her kids.”

“But back then, I wasn’t that evil. Back then I had a secret crush on her.” {Sorry Purelily Shippers}

“As not only was she funny and gave us a lot of gifts.”

“But I knew that a plant based cookie like me would get along really well with a cookie from the desert.”

“But I guess it was never meant to be. Because my curiosity got the better of me.”

“And Now I don’t think she wants to see me again nor forgive me for everything I did.” White Lily Cookie sadly replied.

“It’s okay. I’m sure your friends will forgive you someday.” The darker half said to her,

While he leans over to her for a hug.

“Really? Well, thanks, I guess.” She said to him.

“Your’e welcome, Saint Lily.” Dark Eclipse Cookie said back to her.

As the two of them hug each other,

As they both miss the important person/people in their life.

…

…

…

Upon seeing the two of them hugging each other,

Gingerbrave understood their feelings of missing someone that was very important to them.

As he too misses a special cookie in his life everyday,

That being his deceased brother Gingerdozer.

He could still hear the desperate cries of his little brother,

As he was taken by the witches,

And slowly but surely eat by them.

And all he could do was just stand there in fear.

Before eventually running away from the witches’ castle.

He never forgave himself after that.

For the loss of his brother,

And for leaving him behind…

Fortunately though his sad look was spotted by the other 2 teenagers on this trip.

That being Peach Gummy Cookie and Mysterion Cookie.

Who both looked a bit worry for him.

“Hey Gingerbread Cookie. You feeling alright?” Mysterion Cookie asked.

“It’s actually Gingerbrave. But yeah I’m fine. I was just thinking about something.” Gingerbrave replied.

“Really like what?” Peach Gummy Cookie asked.

But before Gingerbrave could answer them.

Suddenly they are called out by Dark Eclipse Cookie.

“Hey everyone on this boat! Take a look at this.” He said.

And as all of our heroes walk towards both him and White Lily Cookie.

They see that through the mist and fog,

Lies upon a land filled with spirits and ruins.

So this must be the Catacombs of Silence, huh?

Yeah it is,

As this was the only place it to have black coloured things everywhere,

Candlesticks with teal coloured flames on the tip,

Decapitated cookie heads floating in the seas,

And of course, the Catacombs itself.

Where Silent Salt Cookie must be waiting for them…

And so now that they have arrived at that place,

It was go time…

“Alright everyone, this is it. The last beast on Beast-Yeast. My friends already took care of the other 4, so now it’s my time to confront my own beast counterpart.” White Lily Cookie said to her friends.

And so just like that they all get ready,

While also doing some really cool superhero pose.

Before eventually,

They’re ready…

“Let’s go stop Silent Salt Cookie from silencing the entire Earthbread.” White Lily Cookie said with determination.

Followed by one of the heroes {Mainly Peach Gummy Cookie} yelling out:

“Caw-Caw!’

Meaning that our heroes,

Are finally ready for the final beast on Beast-Yeast.

AKA Silent Salt Cookie…

…

…

…

…

…
————————————————————————————————————————————————
…

…

…

…

…

When they hopped off the boat,

Our heroes sees that this place really is scary.

Just like how Strawberry Milk Cookie described it while reading the scroll back at the Creme Republic.

As not only was it filled with tombstones,

But if they listen very closely,

They can hear the wails of pain and agony from the spirits,

Who now haunt this part of Beast-Yeast.

And even though it was really scary and creepy to hear all of that,

Our heroes still stayed brave,

As they have a job to do,

Which is to find Silent Salt Cookie.

And stop his plan from becoming a reality…

For the greater good of Earthbread…

…

…

…

…

…

When they arrive at the entrance to the Catacombs of Silence.

Suddenly our heroes sees two other cookies just talking to each other,

About this place,

And how dangerous is it…

Which White Lily Cookie recognises as Elder Faerie Cookie’s sons,

Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.

At first she was confused about why the both of them are here,

But she was happy to see the two of them again,

After a month apart,

So she was able to call them over.

“Hi Silverbell Cookie! Hi Mercurial Knight Cookie!” She said happily to the two royal faeries.

Causing the both of them to stop what they were doing,

And see the their queen…

“Wait is that?” Silverbell Cookie said in shock.

“Our queen?” Mercurial Knight Cookie also said in shock.

Before eventually the two faeries fly over towards her,

And gives her a welcome back hug.

Which she enjoyed,

As yeah with her being basically the new queen of the faeries,

The Faeries from the Silver Kingdoms loves her as just that,

Including of course the 2 sons of Elder Faerie Cookie.

“Hey you two. I missed you so much.” She said to the two faeries happily.

“Us too your’e majesty. We’re just so happy to see you again.” Silverbell Cookie happily said to her.

“Yeah, with you here. There’s no way we can lose to the Beast of Silence!” Mercurial Knight Cookie also said happily.

Much to the confusion of White Lily Cookie when these two said it,

As she had never seen them act so different before.

“Uh, is everything okay with you two?” She asked.

Soon the 2 faeries got very nervous and guilty,

Before eventually telling her truth.

“No everything’s not fine your majesty. It’s me Silverbell Cookie.” Mercurial Knight Cookie said worriedly.

“And me, Mercurial Knight Cookie. We had both of our souls switched up.” Silverbell Cookie also said worriedly.

Much to the shock of the others…

Especially White Lily Cookie.

“Oh my, what happened to the to of you to have your souls be switched for the other?” She asked worriedly.

“Well before we tell you that. Your’e probably wondering why we’re at the Catacombs of Silence in the first place.” Silverbell Cookie replied.

“Well turns out, it’s because of the patterns on us.” Mercurial Knight Cookie also replied.

“Patterns? What are you talking about?” White Lily Cookie asked worriedly.

“Well let me show you.” Silverbell Cookie replied.

And so both he and Mercurial Knight Cookie,

All pulls off the sleeves from their outfit,

Showing our heroes,

Teal coloured pattens on their arms,

Much to the shock of everyone especially White Lily Cookie.

“Oh my witches. What the heck are they?” She asked worriedly.

“These are patterns. We were cursed with them when both me and my twin brother were born. And they’re a bit like scars. Where they just stick with you no matter how much you wished for it to be. But unlike scars, these patterns continued to grow on our bodies.”

“At first it was only on our arms. But now they’ve spread throughout our legs and even our neck. That’s why we’re here right now, it’s so that we can find a way to break this curse.”

“And be accepted by everyone again. Because as soon as the faeries saw the patterns on us, they became scared of us.”

“And I don’t want that for me nor my youngest twin.” Silverbell Cookie replied.

Yeah turns out that both Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie are twin brothers,

With the former being the youngest and the latter being the eldest.

But even with being revealed with that information,

Our heroes still need to know what happened to them that caused them to have their soul switched.

“Okay, but what about your souls. How did they ended up being switched?” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked.

“Well allow me to explain.” Mercurial Knight Cookie replied.

And so he does just that…

…

…

…

“It all started a few hours ago. Me and Mercurial Knight Cookie were at the Silver Kingdoms minding our buisness, enjoying our moment of peace.”

“Including reading a letter from someone named Sugarfly Cookie. Who we later learnt was actually our long lost older sister. And that she’s currently living in he Hollyberry Kingdoms right now.”

“When suddenly boom! A burst of teal coloured patterns spread throughout the land including our kingdom.”

“And just when it abruptly ends. We thought that it was over and we were safe. But then everyone looked at us with fear in their eyes. We tried to ask them what’s wrong.”

“But they just called us either monster, freak, traitor or liars. And that’s when we see it.”

“That the patterns on our body had spread beyond just our arms and legs.”

“They were now all over our body. And so filled with fears ourselves. We fled the kingdoms.”

“Deducing that the newly rebuilt Catacombs of Silence was the one responsible for it. We head on inside.”

“But when we tried to find the Beast of Silence himself. We were spotted by another cookie, who thinks that we’re intruding on his land.”

“And so without any warnings, he turned into a giant angry polar bear and attacked us.”

“We tried our best to fight back against him, but he was just too powerful.”

“So after we become weakened by him, he grabbed the both of us and started to steal our souls.”

“And just when we think it was over for us, suddenly we were saved. As when we woke up, the polar bear started flee to somewhere in the catacombs.”

“But not all things are fine and dandy. As it seems like that whoever saved us, caused our souls to be switched with the other.”

“With my soul going into Silverbell’s and his soul going into mine.”

“So we decide to head outside to think of another plan of finding Silent Salt Cookie.”

“So yeah, that’s basically what happened to us.” Mercurial Knight Cookie explained.

…

So with all of that explained,

And since it wouldn’t hurt for her to have a little more help,

White Lily Cookie decide to have the 2 faeries join the party.

“You know what? I won’t stand by to see you two suffer from these cursed patterns on you both. I promise you all that if you join my team of great heroes of Crispia. We’ll be able to find Silent Salt Cookie and save the entire Earthbread, plus maybe it might be able to break the curse inflicted on you two. So what do you say, Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie?” The Ancient of Freedom asked with determination.

To which they happily agree,

As there was nothing else they liked more,

Then helping/protecting the ruler of the Faerie Kingdoms.

‘Your majesty, we would love to join you by your side.” Silverbell Cookie happily said.

“Yeah, count us in.” Mercurial Knight also said happily.

“Great. Now all together. For the glory of our kingdoms.” White Lily Cookie said to the two of them,

As she puts her hand down for the two faeries,

To which they both put their own hands on hers.

“For the glory of our kingdoms.” The two faeries said with determination.

 

And so with 2 new team members by their side,

It was now time for our heroes to head inside the Catacombs,

And find Silent Salt Cookie.

So that they can stop him from unleashing the dead for good…

“Alright everyone. Follow me and my 2 royal guards. As I’m sure they’ve been in this catacombs longer then we have.” White Lily Cookie said to her fellow teammates.

To which they all follow her…

All the while,

Both Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie starts thinking about the past,

And their relationship with Elder Faerie Cookie.

As it turns out that when they were born with these teal coloured patterns,

The king of the faeries did his best to keep them hidden from the public eyes.

As they still remember what he told them,

When they were both young…

{Flashback}

Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie: 🎵”We are faeries, wings are strong.”🎵

🎵”With our weapons made of steel.”🎵

🎵”Fix the world filled with despair.”🎵

Elder Faerie Cookie, Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie: 🎵”Until it’s filled with peace once more.”🎵

…

…

…

They both remember when they were 8 years old,

How Elder Faerie Cookie basically got them singing what’s basically the Faeries’ chantra.

While he was basically doing their hair.

And how they will stop at nothing until everything was back to the way is was before,

As he said it…

Before eventually they all start talking to each other,

Like how an dysfunctional family talk to each other,

Especially if the father has suffered a lifelong PTSD thanks to the Beast Wars all those years ago.

“Father? Why is the world filled with despair?” Young Mercurial Knight Cookie asked.

“It’s because even with the beasts being sealed 8 years ago. Monsters still roams our land. Including finding their way to attack our kingdoms.” Elder Faerie Cookie replied to him.

“Is it because of our curse?” Young Silverbell Cookie asked,

As he looks at the patterns on his arm.

Which the king of the faeries quickly pulls back down.

“Cover them up please. And no, it’s not because of your curse. It’s just reality. There’s no happy ending in this kind of world.” Elder Faerie Cookie sadly replied to him.

“So when do we have them gone from our body?” Mercurial Knight Cookie asked.

“As soon as we find a way to break this curse my son. But now keep it hidden from the faeries inside the kingdom.” Elder Faerie Cookie replied to his son.

“Including future visitors?” The twins asked.

“Including them as well. Trust me, it’s the only way for you two to be safe and not get ostracised or be treated like a monster. Just like the rest.” Elder Faerie Cookie sadly replied to his 2 sons.

Before eventually,

The memory ends…

…

{Meanwhile Back at the Creme Republic-}

Inside one of the towns of the Creme Republic,

AKA Choco-Mud Town.

A woman was about to be robbed of her money by a thief,

When thankfully he was stopped by the 3 remaining Dino-Knights.

Who were able to stop him from doing so,

Give the lady back her money,

And send him straight to jail.

Yep, knew this whole knights protecting an entire kingdom thing would work.

Much to the happiness of Dino-Prince Cookie.

As he gets to fist-bump his 2 teammates,

AKA Green Tiger Cookie and Keytar Cookie for a job well done.

But then after they do just that,

They are all seen by Rain Dance Cookie.

Who just wanted to see how they handled their first mission,

While having Red Bun Cookie {AKA Pastry Cookie’s little brother} by his side.

“Hey there so I saw that you three were able to complete your first mission. So hod did it feel?” Rain Danc Cookie asked.

“It was awesome. All of that training had really payed off.” Dino-Prince COokie happily said.

“Good. But I also want to talk to you about something, as this kid had been wondering where he his sister is right now.” The swordsman said to the prince.

To which he takes a look and sees that right beside him,

Was actually Red Bun Cookie,

The little brother of Pastry Cookie.

“Hello prince of the Creme Republic.” The young boy happily said to him.

“Oh, nice to see you again Red Bun Cookie. And don’t worry about your sister. Right now she’s on a very important mission on Beast-Yeast alongside the other Dino-Knights and Saint Lily Cookie.” The prince happily said to him.

“Wait how do you know that?” Green Tiger Cookie asked.

“Oh, I’ve recieved a transmitter from one of the Dino-Knights who are already at the Catacombs of Silence about it.” Dino-Prince Cookie replied.

“Huh, seems like Saint Lily Cookie changed her mind about not wanting help. I’m actually happy for her.” Keytar Cookie said happily.

Before suddenly both he and rest sees a watcher making an alarm sound on Green Tiger Cookie’s wrist.

Which she takes notice off and realises something.

“Oh would you look at the time. Time for me to head out. Power down.” Green Tiger Cookie said.

Before eventually she reverts back to her normal clothing.

“See you two back at the castle after my date.” She said to the 2 Dino-Knights.

But they’re confused on where the ovens she’s going.

And what does she mean by date?

So the first cookie to ask her that question,

Is her step brother.

“Wait, hold on. Where are you going Green Tiger. And what do you mean by date?” Keytar Cookie asked confusedly.

“I’m going to the fancy restaurant with this girl named Vitamin Bar Cookie. {AKA Fern from Power Rangers: Dino/Cosmic Fury}” Green Tiger Cookie replied.

“Okay and who is this Vitamin Bar Cookie?” Rain Dance Cookie asked.

“Well not only is she sweet and brave. But she’s also an athlete just like me, there is a rivalry between us too and we both like eating healthy foods together. Okay bye!” She happily replied.

Before eventually she runs off to her date with her girlfriend.

And while everyone else was shocked to see that she is dating a girl,

The only one who isn’t was Keytar Cookie,

As he was happy for his step sister to find someone to love.

Even if it’s a girl.
————————————————————————————————————————————————

…

…

Back at the Catacombs of Silence-

While the climb to the surface of this place was a bit tideous,

It was able to help our heroes bond more with some teammates in the party,

And even learn more about this Silent Salt Cookie,

As they enter some rooms that provide them with informations about him,

Like how he used to be the Salt of Solidariy,

He had a daughter named White Dove Cookie who unfortunately died in a castle fire when the wars started.

And that he would occasionally visit the Faerie Kingdoms for some reason.

But during all of this,

Some of our heroes decide to talk to Silver Knight Cookie about his emotions,

Or lack thereof…

As it was weird for him to not experience any emotions,

When both he and his twin brother saw White Lily Cookie again,

And when she asked the two of them to join the team…

I wonder why?

…

…

…

“Wait so this is what you look like all the time?” Strawberry Milk Cookie asked in confusion.

“Yes it is. I’m just not used to expressing emotions in the way that any other cookies does. So my face is just blank all the time.” Silver Knight Cookie replied.

“So, is this basically your happy face?” Tricera-Blue Cookie asked.

“Yes it is. This is also my angry face. My sad face, my scared face and the face I made if I won a million coins lottery.” Silver Knight Cookie replied.

Dang is this faerie emotionless.

And there must be something that caused him to do so…

So Choco-Mosa Cookie decided to ask him something.

“So Mercurial Knight Cookie. Why can’t you express your emotions just like the others?” He asked the faerie.

“Elder Faerie Cookie told me that emotions are what makes us weak. And if I want to be a silver soldier just like him, then I should have no emotions on my face, after all he thinks it’s for the best.” Silver Knight Cookie replied.

“So, basically you have unresolved daddy issues, is that right?” The Gold Dino-Knight asked.

As he immediately figured out what the faerie is dealing with.

“Wait. How do you know I was dealing with that kind of issues?” The faerie asked.

“Trust me, I had a friend who had a brother.”

“And that brother of hers suffered both verbal and mental abuse from his father as a kid.”

“Who wanted him to be nothing more than a soldier. A soldier who is strong and brave. And never cries as he said it.”

“And guess what? That kind of daddy issue let to dire consequences and the tear between the relationship between him and his father.” Choco-Mosa Cookie replied.

“So who is that guy’s name?” Silver Knight Cookie asked.

“I don’t want to talk about it. As his father was a lot more then just a father.” The Gold Dino-Knight replied worriedly.

Before eventually they just keep on walking.

…

…

…

…

…

“So how tall is the Catacombs of Silence?” White Lily Cookie asked Dark Eclipse Cookie.

“Well from what I remembered from climbing up it with Sunburst Cookie. I guess about a 100 floors. Since like that scroll stated, no one has ever made it to the surface of this catacombs nor came down from it to tell the tales.” The Darker Half replied.

“Oh okay, just wanting to know, thanks.” White Lily Cookie said happily to him.

As they were walking by each other’s side,

Dark Eclipse Cookie notices something on one of the Ancient of Freedom’s finger.

Which turns out to be a ring,

A ring in the formed of an amethyst jeweled butterfly.

Intrigued by this,

And how she got in the first place,

He asks her about it.

“Say Saint Lily Cookie. Where did you get that ring from?” He asked.

To which White Lily Cookie looks at the ring and smiles for a bit.

“Oh this? This is an engagement ring. I was given to it by Elder Faerie Cookie himself.” White Lily Cookie replied.

“Wait you got engaged to him? If so, sorry for becoming a widow.” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked.

“No silly. He was engaged to someone else. Someone he loved for a long time before being heartbroken by their departure from this Earthbread. He gave it to me as a gift, to keep it safe, before he gave up his own life to protect me and his 2 sons from Shadow Milk Cookie’s attack.” White Lily Cookie sadly replied.

“Oh, well I’m sure you’ll be able to make him happy by keeping his memories alive and taking down the last beast on Beast-Yeast.” Dark Eclipse Cookie said to her happily.

To which she smiles at him for saying that.

“Thanks, I hope he is though. As I would’ve never gotten to where I am now, if it wasn’t for my visit to the Silver Kingdoms and meeting him for the first time.” White Lily Cookie said to him,

As she keeps on looking at the ring on her fingers,

As yeah even though the king of the faeries is now dead,

At least his memories will live on in those who were in lis life.

…

…

…

…

…

But then…

Just when they were basically halfway through the Catacombs,

As they were in the room filled with a lot of tombstones right now…

Suddenly they hear the sound of an old disgruntled man…

“Hark! Who goes there? Turn around before it’s too late ye lads. Because once ye do, there’s no turning back.”

“Who said that?” Peach Gummy Cookie asked worriedly.

“Sounds like one of the spirits inside this room is waiting to strike us down.” Pastry Cookie replied,

As she pulls out her crossbow.

“Looks like Strawberry Milk Cookie was right about it being filled with angry spirits.” Tricera-Blue Cookie said worriedly.

“Relax everyone. I’m sure it’s just someone in there trying to pull a prank on us.” Dark Eclipse Cookie reassured everyone.

Before eventually the voice comes back…

“I am not a prank, I am telling thee truth. If ye keep on climbing thee stairs of this Catacombs, ye all can never make it out alive. Because of him and thee spirits who roams this place, filled with great agony and unresolved dreams.”

“Show yourself. We’re not afraid of you.” Silver Knight Cookie said,

As both he and Mercurial-Bell Cookie draws their weapons.

Before eventually our heroes do see the person saying all that cryptic message.

Which turns out to be an old man holding a scythe with a torchlight being hung from it,

And even wearing a top hat.

But still everyone was kinda freaked out by him.

“What are you? Are you the grim reaper?” Mercurial-Bell Cookie asked worriedly.

“And why do you talk like a pirate?” Tricera-Blue Cookie asked in confusion.

“Plus what’s with the outfit? I’ve had my fair shares of black dresses and outfits back at my fashion store. But this, this is just too much.” Strawberry Milk Cookie also asked him.

Causing the old cookie to become a bit annoyed at them.

Especially since some of the cookies here are teenagers.

“{Sigh} Why did it have to be younglings? {Clear his throat} I am not a pirate nor a grim reaper. My name is Charcoal Cookie. The tomb keeper here in the Catacombs of Silence. And this is where ye all will be listening to the spirits crying in agony. Never given thee peace they needed nor never accomplished anything before they died.” The old cookie said to them all.

And yeah it’s true.

As they were all able to hear the wailing of agony and anger from these spirits.

Who takes in the form of teal coloured spirits just flying around,

And even circling around the tombstones.

But nevermind that as they have a mission to complete,

And they’re not gonna let some old dude get in the way of it.

“Look I don’t know if you know who we are. But we must get to the surface of the catacombs to find Silent Salt Cookie, my beast counterpart.” White Lily Cookie said to him.

Which intrigued the tomb keeper.

So he moved closer towards her,

Much to White Lily Cookie’s surprise.

“So ye must be his ancient counterpart. Is that right?” Charcoal Cookie asked.

“Yes I am. The Ancient of Freedom. So are you gonna let us through or not?” White Lily Cookie asked.

To which Charcoal Cookie let out a huge sigh,

Before eventually telling her some bad news.

“It best if thee friends of yours stayed behind. As Silent Salt Cookie only wants ye. And he would become very angry at the fact that ye brought friends. Especially him again.” The tomb keeper said to her,

As he also points at Dark Eclipse Cookie.

Causing the darker half to become angry at him,

And the two of them to have an argument about it,

As what does he mean by that?

“Wait? You seriously think that I don’t have a chance of getting back to the surface, and saving Sunburst Cookie from his grasp?” The darker half asked angrily.

“Have ye forgotten about thee rules of this place. Those who come to the Catacombs of Silence, remains there forever.” Charcoal Cookie said to him.

“Well I got some new flash for you. Because unlike this place having basically the same room as Eternal Sugar Cookie’s Paradise. As White Lily Cookie told me that her friend Hollyberry Cookie and the other cookies who were with her actually escaped that garden of fake delights? We’re going to the surface, finding Silent Salt Cookie, stopping his plans from becoming a reality and saving the sun elemental himself.” Dark Eclipse Cookie said to the tomb keeper angrily.

But all it did was make the old cookie more mad thenever.

“Ye should be quiet right now. Ye don’t want to anger thee spirits, now would we?” He said to him angrily.

“Oh come on. What’s so bad about about being loud and angry inside this room?” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked angrily.

“Because these spirits here react to negative emotions personally. They feed off them, becoming more and more hostile with each bad emotions they consume by just being near it. So just keep your voice down will ye? I don’t see why it’s that big of a deal for you to join his Ancient counterpart and go to the surface.” Charcoal Cookie said to him angrily.

And so just like that Dark Eclipse Cookie snapped,

 

As he did, suddenly ice started to form around him.

It seems like that everytime he gets really angry,

Ice starts forming around him,

First from his arms,

And then to half of his face,

As he will not let anyone get in their way of going to the surface,

And hopefully saving the sun elemental.

“You don’t know who you are talking to right now? Don’t you?”

“I am the darker half of the Sun Elemental.”

“Always lived inside the shadows of him until I gained a cookie form of my own.”

“Always wanting to spend one day with him out in the sun where I wouldn’t be burnt by it, just because I was literally made from his shadow.”

“And if you are not gonna let us through.”

“Well I’ll just have to make you!” Dark Eclipse Cookie yelled angrily at him.

Before eventually…

A dark pulse wrapped around his arm,

As he was ready to beat the living daylight out of the tombkeeper.

And he does just that…

“SHADOW PUNCH!!!”

{BANG!}

…

…

…

…

…

Oh my witches,

I can’t believe he did it…

Dark Eclipse Cookie,

Just punched an Tombkeeper,

Right in the face…

And just when things couldn’t get any worse,

The torchlight that was on Charcoal Cookie’s scythe,

Suddenly broke,

Which turned out to be the only way,

To keep the spirits from becoming out of control,

Which ended up happening…

“Ye fools! Ye fools! What have ye done!?” Charcoal Cookie asked angrily,

As they, except for Dark Eclipse Cookie who was still being consumed by his rage,

Sees that all of the spirits are now becoming and sounding a lot more angrier.

Before eventually some of them,

Become more dangerous version of themselves.

Much to the shock and fears of some of our heroes.

“What the heck are those?” Peach Gummy Cookie asked in fear.

“Oh you know. The spirits’ true form.”a familair voice replied.

Which turned out to be Quiet Raven Cookie again,

As right now she was sitting on top of a tombstone.

Much to our heroes’s shock and anger towards her.

“{Gasp} you again! What do you want from us right now?” Gingerbrave asked her angrily.

“Well gramps here did tell you all to not make the spirits more angry. But now you all are definetly going to pay.” Quiet Raven Cookie replied to him evilly.

And yeah it didn’t take long for our heroes to see some of the spirit’s true form.

Such as a bunch of salt cubes,

Ghost like wolves,

Ghost like horses,

And of course…

The justiciar himself…

So with that many spirits they have to fight off through,

In order to get into the next room…

It was time for our heroes to fight some ghosts.

“Alright everyone. Weapons ready? And charge!” White Lily Cookie commended her friends.

And so just like that…

This spooky battle finally begins…

…

…

…

…

…

While our heroes couldn't’ be able to touch or even land a hit on the ghosts with just their hands,

Because what do you expect?

They’re literally ghosts.

They were able to overpower them through their own powers and skills.

Thanks to the 3 Dino-Knights and their weapons,

Pastry Cookie and her crossbows and energy like powers,

Gingerbrave and his most powerful candy cane,

Mysterion Cookie’s martial art moves,

And the 2 faeries weapons and skills,

All the while White Lily Cookie was able to use Elder Faerie Cookie’s powers to purify some of the angry spirits.

Alongside Dark Eclipse Cookie, as she was scared to see him nearly getting consumed by his anger.

Which he explained to her that he just has a small anger issues sometimes.

But nevermind that,

As the 2 of them were able to take down the Justiciar with their plant based and shadow based powers.

And just like that…

The battle has won…

…

…

…

Wait what do you mean by it’s still going?

…

…

…

“Wow would you look at that. I’ve never seen anyone take down a bunch of spirits in just a battle. Most adventurers die by that point.” Quiet Raven Cookie said in shock.

“So are you and Charcoal Cookie gonna let us through now?” Dark Eclipse Cookie asked.

“Not quite. Oh, I haven’t told you this before. But did you really think that me and Charcoal Cookie were the only cookies who are loyal to my dad in this catacombs?” Quiet Raven Cookie asked.

“What do you mean by that?” White Lily Cookie asked in worries.

Before suddenly…

“Hey! What are you all doing in my land?”

Just through the corner of their eyes,

That was when they see a prince.

But not just any prince,

As he has white hair with bear ears on them,

And looked very pissed off at them for intruding on “his land”

“Is that the guy who transformed into a Perla bear and attacked you two?” Tricera-Blue Cookie asked one of the faeries.

“Yep. He’s exactly how I remember him as.” Mercurial-Bell Cookie replied.

And turns out that he’s not alone,

As soon 2 other cookies shows up,

And starts attacking our heroes,

With one of them being a black and white artist with panda ears,

And one of them wearing a high-tech blue knight uniform.

Before eventually Quiet Raven Cookie introduces the 3 new cookies to the heroes.

“Everyone meet Polar Prince Cookie, Inky Panda Cookie and of course High Voltage Cookie. Dad’s most loyal followers to ever come to the Catacombs of Silence.” The fake sorceress introduced them nonchalantly.

Before suddenly Polar Prince Cookie transforms himself in a polar bear,

Who then proceeds to grab White Lily Cookie out of nowhere,

And have the rest of the goons follow him,

So that they can take her to somewhere,

So that their leader can finally introduce himself to her.

Not wanting to see her get killed by him,

All of our heroes proceeds to immediately follow them into the next floors of the catacombs.

…

…

…

…

…

Which leads them to see her being taken to some kind of trial rooms.

“Quick! Before the doors get locked!” Dark Eclipse Cookie said to everyone.

But unfortunately the only ones who got inside the room before it was locked for good…

Was Dark Eclipse Cookie, Gingerbrave, Peach Gummy Cookie, Strawberry Milk Cookie, Tricera-Blue Cookie and Pastry Cookie.

While the rest are unfortunately locked outside of the entire thing.

Fortunately though there is a small hole on the wall,

That neither of them can fit into, sorry to say…

Or am I sorry?

As turns out that both Silver Knight Cookie and Mercurial-Bell Cookie can just shrink themselves into a size of a pea.

Allowing the both of them to fit through the hole,

And hopefully watch the entire trial play out,

To see if White Lily Cookie will be alright…

Especially since this will be the first time,

That she will have a real encounter with Silent Salt Cookie…

The most dangerous beast of them all,

Or that’s what they all say at least…
————————————————————————————————————————————————
…

…

…

…

…

No one really knows what’s at the surface of the Catacombs of Sielnce,

As no one has lived to tell the tales,

But on the surface,

Was filled with dead bodies of a thousand cookies that the Beast of Silence slays,

A ruined flag banner swaying in the air,

And of course the moon spreading its eerie light on the surface.

Before eventually it kept on flickering from its natural colour to a teal colour.

That was because the beast of silence himself,

Was singing the song he made.

A song filled with agony and pain for all of the mistakes he had done,

And that he won’t be able to forgive himself from becoming just like his so called friends,

A beast…

And he hopes that this song will be able to bring back the dead,

So that he can have his people back,

And the only thing that will remain in this world…

Is silence…

…

…

…

“Silence reign! Let the silence reign!” The Beast of Silence sang loudly and angrily at the top of his lungs.

Boy, did it sound really intense,

Especially with that singing voice of his…

And that was only the last line of the song,

Can’t even imagine what the full song might sound like…

After he was done singing and calmed down,

He sees that the moon is still in its normal colour.

Much to his annoyance and confusion.

“Why is the moon still normal? I sang that song four times now. And yet it still didn’t brought back my people! What am I doing wrong?” Silent Salt Cookie said to himself angrily.

There was something else more then just reviving the dead,

As it appears that he wants to revive his people too…

But why?

So that he can be their king again?

So that he can a commander again?

Or something like that…

But then as he was thinking that,

That was when someone decided to pay themselves a little visit.

“You wanna know what your’e problem is? It’s because you don’t have enough agony and pain in your soul. Plus I think your’e a terrible singer.”

And so the Beast of Silence turned around and sees,

Himself…

Only it’s like his shadow self,

Who enjoys the pain and torture that he puts onto other cookie,

Especially killing them.

But he wasn’t happy to see that shadow again.

“What do you want now?” He asked annoyedly.

“I heard that you’re completed with your song, is that right?” The shadow asked him.

“Yes. And I sang it for like 4 times now. And yet the moon is still not under the spell. I just don’t know what I did wrong.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

“Don’t worry I understand.” The shadow said to him.

“You really do?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“Yes, I understand that you’re weak! Pathetic! Useless! All of them! Didn’t you see what happened to the other beasts and their plans?”

“You know? Putting a plague inside an entire kingdom, turning everyone in the kingdom to stone, corrupting their own ancient and even trapping an entire kingdom population inside her own garden.”

“Those plans were flawless, until the ancients showed up and ruined them all! Including unlocking their stupid awakening form!”

“And I saw it all happen through my eyes as they were all defeated in one way or another.”

“Through the powers of Father and Son, An immortal goddess, an ancient redeeming his beast counterpart, and destroying the sky of illusion inside the eternal paradise with the powers of mother and son.”

“Do you want that to happen to you? Your plans being foiled by that ancient counterpart of yours?”

“Because once she reaches the surface with her other friends, then it will be all over for us. As it’s straight back to the silver tree where we were all banished from.” The shadow angrily replied to him.

And yeah he was used to the shadow’s berating every now and then.

Especially since he’s a reflection of him that’s evil…

“Look even though I did get banished into the tree, I didn’t get trapped inside a giant fork like the rest. I, you know…” Silent Salt Cookie said.

Hinting that something might be wrong with the history,

And that maybe the witches weren’t responsible for sealing away the beasts…

But nevermind that.

…

…

…

“Whatever. Luckily though. I have an idea on how we can make our plans flawless to fail.” The shadow said to him.

“Oh yeah? What is it?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“I have sensed that your ancient counterpart has a lot more darkness inside her heart then you did. As while you and her are practically the same with how you two feel guilty about certain things. Like starting an entire wars, droving your friends away and even becoming a villain. She has the most guilt inside of her compared to you. She would be perfect with singing that song.” The shadow replied to him.

“So where is she right now?” Silent Salt Cookie asks.

“Inside the trial room with the rest. And they’re already waiting for you. So don’t keep them waiting as you are their trustworthy leader.” The shadow replied to him.

To which the Beast of Silence sees in one of the candlesticks inside the surface…

And yeah, the shadow’s right,

White Lily Cookie is here right now,

Although she was knocked out,

So that she can’t escape her capturers.

He could see that she has a lot of troubling things inside her mind.

And so he takes a deep sigh.

“Alright. I guess your’e right.” The Beast of Silence said to his shadow.

“Good. I’ll leave you all for the time being. As I’ll will be watching you. Always watching you.” The shadow sinisterly said to him.

Before eventually returning to his shadow.

So after that,

He puts the candlestick down,

And looks at the night sky off the surface.

“At least I haven’t forgotten about you, my dear Fae. I hope you can still forgive me from what I’m about to do now. And I’m hoping that soon, we’ll be able to meet each other again. But now, I must see my peoples again.” Silent Salt Cookie said.

Before eventually he heads out of the surface,

And makes his way to the trials room.

While being watched by someone,

Who isn’t happy about what he’s doing right now…

“Oh commander. Why did you changed so badly?”

…

Chapter Text

…

…

…

…

…

After being knocked out for a few minutes,

White Lily Cookie finally woke up…

She remembered that the way she was knocked out was by the polar bear just straight up hitting her in the face.

But fortunately she couldn’t feel it being in pain,

But where exactly is she?

And also,

Where is everyone else?

Just when she was about to go out and find the others,

Suddenly metal chains starts pulling her back to the same space she woke up in.

Much to her confusion.

And no matter how heard she tries to move to somewhere else,

They just kept pulling her back over and over again.

Before eventually she sees that her hands are now in cuffs.

What the?

Why is her hands tied up in cuffs?

Is she a prisoner?

An experiment?

Or something worse?

What could this mean?

But just before her mind could panic over all of this,

Suddenly that’s when she sees the room that she was in…

As it turns out this is not an ordinary room…

But instead a courtroom…

How you ask?

Well Infront of her,

Was not only a podium {that judges sit on},

But also a giant scale just staring back at her…

Looking at her soul,

Trying to figure out if she really is good,

Or if she still had any evilness inside of it due to the fact that she and Dark Enchantress Cookie share the same soul.

Is this why she’s here?

Is so she can see if she’s found guilty or not?

I hope not…

But as she was thinking all of that stuff…

That was when she hears his voice.

“Well, well, well, you must be Saint Lily Cookie right? Well then, welcome to your own witch trials. Where I’ll be the judge of you.”

…

…

…

And just like that,

Silence filled the air once more…

As soon the Ancient of Freedom sees someone walking on the podium to greet her.

Someone wearing a black armour,

With black flames on his head.

Someone holding the most mightiest sword ever seen,

Which was used to slaughter a thousand cookies all those years ago…

Someone who is more silent then she ever comprehend,

And yet just through the look of him,

It seems like he has more words to say…

And that’s when she finally sees him…

Silent Salt Cookie…

The Beast of Silence,

And the last beast that she needs to banish right back to the Silver Tree…

Alongside the others…

Even though two of them are still out there and are on a journey to find themselves,

One of them is pronounced dead,

And the other has been redeemed by one of the ancients.

But nevermind that,

As soon enough,

Both the Ancient of Freedom and the Beast of Silence have their first conversation together…

…

…

…

“Took you long enough. I thought that you were gonna come to the Catacombs of Silence the same time as your dear friends.” Silent Salt Cookie said to her.

As yeah while it did took the other ancients to confront their own beast counterparts in like a day.

It only took her about 3 months after they all gained their awakening forms.

“Well I just want to be extra prepared for the last beast on Beast-Yeast. Especially with my enhanced powers.” White Lily Cookie said back to him.

“Interesting. I have heard a lot of how your friends were able to conquer the 4 other beasts. Such as one changing their resolution and embracing apathy in their own way, destroying and entire temple with the beast inside, redeeming the beast by expressing their love towards them, and destroying the sky that gave the garden the illusion of it being perfect and happy in every way. I will not let my plans be ruined by you. As I see how corrupted your heart is getting.” Silent Salt Cookie said to her ominously.

“What are you talking about? And why am I stuck in one place?” Saint Lily Cookie asked worriedly,

As she keeps on trying to pull the cuffs out of her hands.

“Right now we’re holding a trial against you. For all of the crimes you did as Dark Enchantress Cookie.” Silent Salt Cookie replied to her.

A trial?

Against her?

Knew something was off when she saw that giant scale infront of her.

But she never thought that this trial would be about her…

Plus there will be other cookies testifying against her too?

That’s absurd.

“We’re? There’s other cookies here who are gonna judge me?” She asked worriedly.

“That’s right. And they are here with me.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

And so just like that,

4 other cookies join him on the podiums.

With them being Quiet Raven Cookie herself,

The self-proclaimed prince of the Catacombs of Silence {Polar Prince Cookie},

A black and white artist {Inky Panda Cookie},

And a knight in blue high-tech suit of armour {High Voltage Cookie}.

But just when things couldn’t get any worse.

It appears that her 6 remaining friends will be there to defend for her.

Which would be fine since Peach Gummy Cookie here had played a lot of games about court trials and stuff like that.

While Quiet Raven Cookie here plays as the prosecutor.

As she’s always been something off a daddy’s little girl.

And she wants to make her father really proud of her.

Anyways nuff said,

Now with everyone in position.

May the court trial start now…

It’s White Lily Cookie and her friends Vs. Silent Salt Cookie and his followers: Court Style!
————————————————————————————————————————————————

…

…

SEPTEMBER 28TH 2024: 9PM.

THE TRIAL ROOM INSIDE OF THE CATACOMBS OF SILENCE.

…

…

…

…

…

First there were murmurs and talking from the crowds who are watching this trial,

With all of them being spirits and wraiths,

Before eventually Silent Salt Cookie shuts it all down with the sound of the gavel banging.

{Bang}

“Court is now in session. So please settle down. {Clears throat.} We are now examining the case of White Lily Cookie. Or Saint Lily Cookie she liked to be called. To see if she really is guilty or not. Let’s start the trial with you, Inky Panda Cookie. Do you have anything for this court?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“Yes I do. And it’s all right here in these papers filled with research.” The black and white artist replied proudly.

Before eventually he pulled out a bunch of papers from his bag,

Puts them all in order.

And reads them from the top.

…

…

…

“Wars Flour Dark the since ever. Same the be will never-“ The artist read.

Before suddenly he’s hit with an…

“OBJECTION!”

Which turned out to be from Tricera-Blue Cookie.

Much to his confusion.

“Why did you stopped me from reading it?” Inky Panda Cookie asked.

“Because your’e reading the papers backwards. I can literally see the words being upside down.” The Blue Dino-Knight replied.

To which the artist noticed what he meant.

And so turns it back around,

And goes back to reading it normally.

…

…

…

“The ancient lives has and never will be the same. Ever since the Dark Flour Wars. And whose fault was it? Saint Lily Cookie’s of course. Here are the list of things that happened ever since she became Dark Enchantress Cookie. Such as destroying the entire Golden Cheese Kingdoms, having Dark Cacao Cookie get nearly killed by his own son, kidnapping Tiger Lily Cookie from her family before abandoning her inside the jungle and-“ The artist reads through.

Before he is hit with an:

“HOLD IT!”

This time coming from Peach Gummy Cookie.

And from the boy’s determined look,

He knew that something was off about what the artist read through.

And he explains why that is.

“3 months ago. Me and my sister Strawberry Milk Cookie were just in the living room of our room, watching our favourite cartoon on TV. when suddenly we saw a news report about Hollyberry Cookie’s return from her own adventures in Beast-Yeast. Alongside the other cookies who were with her including of course Tiger Lily Cookie.”

“And if I remember correctly, 19 years ago. A dragon came down on the Hollyberry Kingdom and tried to steal away the 2 twin sisters. But only one of them did get kidnapped by it. Which happened to be the long lost princess herself.”

“Plus if you take that to an account, that event happened before nearly 19 years ago. 2 years before Dark Enchantress Cookie was even baked. So no, she didn’t do that as she didn’t existed yet.”

“Meaning that there was no way in ovens that Saint Lily Cookie could do anything like that.”

“So I declare that crime of hers debunked!” Peach Gummy Cookie testified.

While also pointing his finger like a certain lawyer from another game.

…

And that statement was so hardcore,

That it caused the artist to accidentally drop all of his papers.

as he was so shocked about how wrong he was about one of the events.

“No! My research!” The artist sadly said.

And as everyone celebrated the young boy for that strong remark.

Suddenly a pile of salt starts falling towards one of the scales.

Revealing that the more salt on one of them,

The more the scales will either tip or rise,

Until eventually White Lily Cookie is found either guilty or not guilty.

And it seems like that thanks to that defence,

She is heading towards the not guilty part.

Much to the happiness of everyone at her side.

Including both Silver Knight Cookie and Mercurial-Bell Cookie.

Who were both watching the whole thing while still being tiny.

While hoping that White Lily Cookie really is not guilty.

As they both know that she is not the same cookie as Dark Enchantress Cookie.

As she’s trying her best to learn from her greatest mistakes…

Anyways let’s move on…

…

…

…

“Why the ovens did you think that she really did kidnapped one of her friend’s granddaughter?” Polar Prince Cookie asked angrily.

“Well kidnapping is an evil thing to do. So don’t blame me.” Inky Panda Cookie replied back to him.

Before eventually Silent Salt Cookie moves on to the next testimony witness.

That being Gingerbrave himself…

“Alright let’s now move on to you. The Gingerbread boy.” The Beast of Silence said.

“It’s actually Gingerbrave? You all have to stop calling me the Gingerbread boy.” Gingerbrave said annoyedly.

“I’m just going to ignore that. So what do you know about White Lily Cookie? Since apart from Pure Vanilla Cookie, Your’e the only one who doesn’t see as that tyrannical monster that as Dark Enchantress Cookie?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“What do I know about her? Well I might say that she’s my favourite ancient out of all of them. As not only does she see me in a lot in herself. But we also want to become more brave and adventurous. Plus from what I remembered. She actually longed for a kingdom of her own. And finally got her wish by becoming the queen of the Faerie Kingdoms. So-“ Gingerbrave answered.

Before he is immediately stopped by another:

“HOLD IT!”

This time however it came from the prosecutor of this trial,

Quiet Raven Cookie.

Who doesn’t like the answer that he was giving to her father.

Proven by her just immediately slamming her fist on the prosecutor desk.

“What exactly do you mean by longing for a kingdom? Gingerbrave?” The fake sorceress asked angrily.

Although he was a bit nervous,

He was able to tell her why he thinks that way.

“Uh, well, that’s because. In Crispia, there’s already 4 kingdoms on it. You got the Vanilla Kingdom, the Hollyberry Kingdom, the Dark Cacao Kingdom and the Golden Cheese Kingdom. But surprisedly enough no White Lily Kingdom. So maybe she wanted a kingdom of her own just like the rest of her friends.” Gingerbrave nervously replied.

Much to White Lily Cookie’s embarrassment,

And Silent Salt Cookie’s intrigue.

But all that did was anger the prosecutor more.

As from what she heard from him,

That made White Lily Cookie look like not only a curious idiot,

But a jealous prick…

“Oh great. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better!”

“Not only did curiosity got the better of her when she went to the Witches’ Banquet all those years ago. But i seems like that her own jealousy of not getting a kingdom.”

“Is what drove her to become Dark Enchantress Cookie in the first place, so that she can get her revenge on her friends for having their own kingdom while she doesn’t.”

‘Is that what you are trying to say, Gingerbrave!?” Quiet Raven Cookie asked him angrily.

“What? No! That’s not what I-“ The young boy tried to explain himself,

Before eventually the fake sorceress takes over,

As she leaves her desk,

And talks to everyone as she observes both him and White Lily Cookie.

“Ladies and gentleman. I don’t get why this gingerbread boy here is trying his best to defend the once great Ancient of Freedom, when he already told me that she longed for a kingdom just like the rest of her friends.”

“Meaning that she got so jealous that she made her friends’ lives a living hell during the Dark Flour Wars.”

“I rest my case.” Quiet Raven Cookie said.

And so just like that another salt pile falls from the sky,

This time landing on the other scale,

Causing it to start tipping over,

Which means that White Lily Cookie is now on the Guilty path.

But our heroes are not gonna let that slide.

So they tried their best to make sure,

That their friend here is not guilty.

No matter how hard it takes…

…

…

…

…

…

Everyone took turn on defending with White Lily Cookie or against her.

Including debating over a lot of stuff that happened during her times as Dark Enchantress Cookie.

Such as forming the Cookies of Darkness,

Attacking the Creme Republic,

Letting all of the beasts out,

And even traumatising Pure Vanilla Cookie when she managed to enter his floating kingdom.

Until all that’s left of the defending side,

Is Pastry Cookie, Dark Eclipse Cookie,

And surprisedly enough, White Lily Cookie herself…

…

…

…

…

…

“Alright it looks like that so far the paths of guilty and not guilty are balanced. So let’s hear a word from a cookie we haven’t yet to tell her side of the story. That being you.” Silent Salt Cookie said.

As he points at Pastry Cookie.

“Who? Me?” She asked with confusion.

“Yes you. It says here in this scroll of the past that you were with her when she became Dark Enchantress Cookie, is that right?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“Yeah I did.” She replied.

“So how does it make you feel now, seeing her again, even after you literally saw her became the villain of today?” The Beast of Silence asked.

To which she takes a deep sigh,

And speaks…

“Well to be honest with you. The moment I saw her again after all those years. After I’ve finally became haled from my trauma of not only seeing the death of my mom and dad, and having to raise my little brother Red Bun Cookie because our older brother was gone too.”

“I was scared. I was paranoid that she would hurt me, because I saw how powerful Dark Enchantress Cookie was. Especially when I saw her again during that Creme Republic attack.”

“But after a week of training to come to this place. After getting to know her well and realising that she is not exactly like that evil demon.”

“I now truly appriecate her. And her goal of fixing her worst mistakes ever made and reconcile with her friends.”

“And even though I will never get rid of that memory of her turning into Dark Enchantress Cookie.”

“At least, she’s changing.” Pastry Cookie replied,

With a smile on her face.

much to everyone’s happiness for her.

Except for Quiet Raven Cookie.

As she couldn’t tell if she was lying or not.

“What was that? You were supposed to be telling the truth about how you felt about her.” The fake sorceress said to her angrily.

“I did tell you the truth. Sincerely.”

“And I’m not lying through my teeth like I’m on fire or something like that.”

“So, take that!” Pastry Cookie said back to her.

While also pointing at her,

Causing a wing of force to push the Beast of Silence’s daughter into a wall.

While also causing something else to happen to her.

As while everyone was praising Pastry Cookie for her honesty and learning to appreciate White Lily Cookie.

As the word “fire” started to give the fake sorceress a horrible memory.

As she could hear, maybe herself, screaming in pain,

As the flame were eating her alive,

All the while she was calling out for her dad to save her…

And this memory made her so mad.

That she decides to ask the next cookie an unrelated question to the trial.

That being Dark Eclipse Cookie’s relationship with the Sun Elemental.

And although he tries to stop it,

Silent Salt Cookie overruled his objection.

Allowing his daughter to interrogate him about it…

And what really happened during the night where it all went wrong for the both of them.

…

…

…

“So Dark Eclipse Cookie. Mind telling us what your relationship with Sunburst Cookie was like? And what happened the day you died?” The fake sorceress asked him.

To which he did his best to not garner any attention.

As unbeknownst to anyone,

He has a secret of his own…

And it was a lot more crazy than you expected.

So here it goes…

…

…

…

“{Clears throat} Yes I would like to. So you know how shadows stay tethered to their cookies right? Well luckily for me, I don’t do that.”

“As during the nights I roam freely in Beast-Yeast. But unfortunately that was the time of day where Sunburst Cookie is not there. Only Moonlight Cookie is there.

“And so as the Great Beast Wars again and seeing how your dad caused a lot of damage to the moon. Both us knew that he had to be stopped.”

‘So we climbed his newly built Catacombs and tried to take him down.”

“Before eventually he quickly took over the Sun Elemental and had him fight me.”

“Resulting in me not only having one of my eyes scratched up in an X mark. But also my skull to be cracked by his own staff.”

“Before eventually I had to go inside a stone monkey statue in order to regain my strength.” Dark Eclipse Cookie explained.

“And yet you don’t have any grudges against him. Nor did you hate him for killing you. Why is that?” Quiet Raven Cookie asked.

To which he tried to lie his way through answering her,

As he doesn’t want his big secret to be revealed.

“Because he was my friend. And sometimes friends don’t hate friends for-“ The darker half tried to answer.

But she could already tell that he’s lying.

So she hits him with the good old:

“OBJECTION!”

before he slams the desk again.

“Boy you really suck at keeping it a secret, don’t you monkeys for brains?”

“Me and father already knew what type of relationship you had with the sun elemental himself.”

“And you thought that no one would noticed. No one would even bat an eye.”

“No one should ever know the fact that you have a huge crush on Sunburst Cookie.”

“Is that why you never gave him any grudge? Because of your own growing love for him?”

“As that is the most stupidest thing that I’ve ever heard.” Quiet Raven Cookie said to the darker half while mocking his crush on Sunburst Cookie.

…

…

…

What?

Everyone was shocked to hear the big news.

They didn’t know that all this time,

Dark Eclipse Cookie has feelings for the Sun Elemental himself.

And it was still strong till this day…

But nevermind that,

And the embarrassment that the darker half was feeling right now.

As it was now time for White Lily Cookie to speak up,

As the last witness…

With the cuffs on her hand finally letting her go in the process…

…

…

…

…

…

“White Lily Cookie. We now come to you. How do you plead?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“I’m sure she’s gonna say not guilty, right Mercurial Knight Cookie?” Mercurial-Bell Cookie asked.

“Yeah, as after all she has done so hard to redeem herself, especially for all of the mistakes she’s done as Dark Enchantress Cookie.” Silver Knight Cookie replied.

Before eventually she speaks…

…

…

…

“Not guilty, Silent Salt Cookie. As I already made peace with myself being Dark Enchantress Cookie. And want to fix the mistakes I have caused to the innocent cookies, my friends and their families. Plus I am already the queen of the Silver Kingdom and all of the faeries loved me. So at least that’s one step closer to my goals.” White Lily Cookie said.

But her talking about the faeries and even the Silver Kingdom.

Got the Beast of Silence remembering something…

And that was when he noticed the ring on her hand,

The way it looked and the way it reminded him of someone he knew for a very long time…

Before eventually, he gets flashbacks to when he asked someone to marry him…

And soon that’s when things took a downward spiral.

…

…

…

So he shouted out the only thing to get her attention:

“OBJECTION!”

Which stopped White Lily Cookie from talking more,

And everyone to be shocked that even the judge can say that.

Especially to one of them.

“The judge saying Objection? That has never happened in any of the games I’ve played.” Peach Gummy Cookie said worriedly.

“I wonder why he’s calling out objection for.” Mercurial-Bell Cookie said in intrigue.

“Yeah me too.” Silver Knight Cookie also said.

Before eventually he speaks angrily,

…

…

…

“What is that on your hand?” The Beast of Silence asked her.

To which she realise that he was talking about the ring,

The very same ring that Elder Faerie Cookie gave her.

“Oh, this? This is an engagement ring.” She replied to him happily.

“Is it in a shape of a butterfly and is amethyst jeweled?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“Yes is it.” White Lily Cookie replied.

“And it was given to you by Elder Faerie Cookie himself?” Silent Salt Cookie asked.

“Yes he did. Wait, how do you know who Elder Faerie Cookie is? And why would you ask about the engagement ring?” White Lily Cookie asks him in confusion.

As she didn’t realise that he would have any personal memories of the King of the Faeries himself.

Before eventually, the Beast of Silence tells everyone the truth…

“Because Elder Faerie Cookie is my husband.” He replied…

…

…

…

Say what!?

…

…

…

The king of the faeries and the Beast of Silence,

Are married?

How could that be?

This have to be a joke right?

Oh wait, I forgot,

Silent Salt Cookie’s the Beast of Silence,

Not the Beast of Deceit like Shadow Milk Cookie…

Anyways this was getting way out of hand.

But eventually he did gave us an answer on how the two of them got engaged…

And how he doesn’t know yet that his husband,

Is still dead after 8 months…

…

…

…

“You all see. Back when I was still the Salt of Solidarity. And after we both gave birth to our twin boys.”

“I still remember the day where he was helping me and my daughter White Dove Cookie get back home. When suddenly I get down on my knees. And showed him that ring.”

“And I said to him. If he would like to be not only my co-commander but also my husband. To which he said yes happily.”

“I had loved him since the day we first met. We even had a love song for each other to sing, whenever there was moonlight dawned upon us.”

“And how sad he felt when he was forced to seal me away alongside the other beasts for the greater good.”

“Especially since he still loved me even after I became a beast.” Silent Salt Cookie said to them all.

“Okay, random question but who exactly are your twin sons?” Strawberry Milk Cookie asked.

“Well I haven’t seen them in like a thousand years now. But from what I do remember. Their names were Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

And so just like that,

Everyone became more shocked whatsoever…

Especially the 2 faeries…

As they were not expecting themselves to realise that the Beast of Silence is their other dad,

And that it was because of him that they have these patterns on their body…

But nevermind that right now,

As he still needs to know where his husband is…

Not realising what actually happened to him…

“And yet. After all those years of being inside the Silver Tree. And after being freed from it thanks to Dark Enchantress Cookie weakening it.”

“I couldn’t see him. I couldn’t find my husband.”

“I thought that maybe, just maybe, he was recovering from being the guardian of the Silver Tree. With you taking over as the Silver Kingdoms’ queen.”

“And yet I have doubt that he is still alive. But I never gave up.”

“So please tell me White Lily Cookie. If Elder Faerie Cookie did gave you his ring.”

“Where is he?”

“Where is my husband now?”

“Please tell me, I want to know if he’s okay. Because he’s the only cookie who is still alive. As I have lost everything during the Great Beast Wars.” Silent Salt Cookie asked White Lily Cookie.

Pleading her to tell him what and where is Elder Faerie Cookie…

…

…

…

And seeing him this nervous and scared for his husband’s life.

Put her on edge,

As she saw what happened to the king of the faeries.

And this was why she had gotten his remaining powers…

So she had a choice…

Does she tell him the truth and devastate him?

Or lie to him and get hit with an “Objection” or an “Hold It” by one of his followers,

Especially his daughter,

Who likely saw the death of Elder Faerie Cookie?

But despite still being tensed about how he might react to it,

She knew that it might be importantly if she did…

Otherwise receiving Elder Faerie Cookie’s powers would be all for nothing…

So she tells him the truth…

…

…

…

…

…

“{Takes a deep breath} Silent Salt Cookie. There’s no easy way of saying this to you. But here we go.”

“I’m sorry. But you are never gonna see him again.”

“Because…”

“He died by using his remaining strength to save me and your 2 sons from one of Shadow Milk Cookie’s attack. And that’s how I got his powers.”

“I’m sorry but…”

“He’s gone.” White Lily Cookie sadly replied to him…

…

…

…

…

…

And soon…

Everything turned upside down for him…

As he couldn’t process the fact that his husband,

Who he had loved for so long…

Had died,

By the hands of one of his so-called friends…

But she’s obviously lying about it right?

There’s no way that a strong and powerfully king like Elder Faerie Cookie…

Could be dead right?

There’s no way that’s the truth,

Right?

But the more he thinks about it…

The more devastated he becomes of the fact…

That no matter how hard he tries to pretend,

His husband,

Is dead…

Forever…

And unbeknownst to him,

He could hear the shadow side of him,

Berating him for the loss of his husband…

While shifting the blame to White Lily Cookie…

…

…

…

DID YOU HEAR THAT? BECAUSE CERTAINLY I DID.

AFTER MANY MONTHS OF WAITING AND WAITING AND WAITING.

YOU FINALLY GOT AN ANSWER,

THAT YOUR HUSBAND IS DEAD…

…

…

…

AND WHOSE FAULT WAS IT?

YOUR ANCIENT COUNTERPART…

AS SINCE SHE WAS WITH HIM, SHE SHOULD’VE PROTECTED HIM FROM THAT BEAST OF DECEIT’S ATTACK.

…

…

…

PLUS WITH YOUR HUSBAND BEING DEAD.

IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR TWO SONS DIED AS WELL.

BECAUSE OF HER.

…

…

…

NO WONDER WHY THEY ALL DIED…

SHE’S BASICALLY THE SAME COOKIE AS DARK ENCHANTRESS COOKIE…

NOW ISN’T THAT INTERESTING…

…

…

…

SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

YOU PATHETIC KNIGHT?

CRY ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND’S DEATH?

OR UNLEASH ALL OF YOUR ANGER TOWARDS HER?

…

…

…

BECAUSE IF I WAS YOU…

I WOULD GLADLY CHOOSE THE LATTER…

…

…

…

…

…

“Ha, ha, ha.”

“Ha, ha, ha, ha.”

“Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.”

…

…

…

…

…

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”

…

…

…

…

…

For a cookie who is known to be the Beast of Silence,

His laughter not only induced rage,

But also despair…

As no one had ever seen him laugh this crazily or loudly before…

Especially White Lily Cookie.

As she felt like that he would have a more quiet laugh.

Not a laugh that makes him look like a man who now lost everything!

It seems like that the news of his Husband’s Death,

Really did put him on edge.

And soon,

He lashes out at the cookie that he thinks that alongside Shadow Milk Cookie,

Was also responsible for his death…

…

…

…

…

…

“You don’t know what it felt like for me to lost everything I had.”

“To lost the few things that ever gave me great happiness as the Salt of Solidarity.”

“My daughter? Burned alive inside my own castle alongside our butler.”

“My 3 soldiers? All killed by the beasts and their assistants during the Great Beast Wars.”

“And my horse? Slaughtered into pieces by Burning Spice Cookie’s forces.”

“I thought that all I had left was my husband and my kids.”

“But no! They’re all dead! And it’s all your fault!”

“If you managed to assist them in taking down that clown! They still would be alive!”

“But because of you! They’re all gone!”

“Especially my husband! Who I loved til the day I became a beast.”

“And even offered to perform a spell that would seal these evil beasts away for good!” Silent Salt Cookie yelled angrily.

Causing everyone to be shocked that the witches,

Didn’t in fact helped with sealing the witches.

‘Wait are you saying that you helped Elder Faerie Cookie seal away the witches?” Gingerbrave asked.

“Of course I did! I literally sacrificed my own freedom for the safety of the entire Earthbread!”

“But no! Since all of the cookies saw how evil the beasts were, and all of the damages they caused!”

“They thought that the witches were true heroes! And I am always sick of hearing them getting more praise and attention then I ever did!”

“Because we all know that the witches forsaken me and the other virtues! They left us to get corrupted into what we are now.”

“When we needed them the most!”

“And all I want to do now is unleash the full power of the moon. And destroy the witches for good!”

“There are you happy now!”

“ARE YOU HAPPY NOW TO KNOW THAT THE WHOLE STORY OF THE WITCHES SEALING AWAY THE BEASTS…”

“IS ALL COMPLETE BULLSH*T!!!”

And as he yelled that at the top of his lungs and in a very distorted voice.

Suddenly,

Teal patterns spread throughout the trial room,

Catching everyone off guard by it,

And unfortunately causing more patterns to spread all over the 2 faeries,

This time being their head.

So scared at both their fathers,

And the fact that they are also half-beasts,

They soon fled…

All the while Silent Salt Cookie finally managed to calm down…

Ready to hear the final verdict…

…

…

…

“Sorry about that. I got a little impatient. Now then do we have a final verdict?” He asked one of his followers.

And although they were a bit scared of him,

Due to how angry he gotten back there…

They still read the final verdict.

“{Clears throat} We find the defendant White Lily Cookie, or Saint Lily Cookie as she calls herself, guilty. For her crimes as Dark Enchantress Cookie, literally destroying an entire kingdom, forming a cult of those who worshipped her and for the death of Elder Faerie Cookie and his 2 sons Silverbell Cookie and Mercurial Knight Cookie.” Polar Prince Cookie said.

…

…

…

…

…

As black and white confettis was thrown,

With a lot of spirits and wraiths celebrates and cheers for the Ancient of Freedom being guilty…

She looks on with horror in her face…

Oh no,

She’s gonna get the death sentence right?

She’s going to jail, right?

Because that’s what happens to all cookies who are found guilty…

Eventually Silent Salt Cookie speaks to her…

“Come on. Let me show you to your punishment, you Husband Killer!” Silent Salt Cookie angrily said to her.

Before eventually he spawns a lot of metal chains to wrap around her,

Allowing her to take her to somewhere for her punishment.

And as she struggles to get free from them,

He is asked by one of his followers about the rest of her friends.

“Hey Silent Salt Cookie. What about her friends? Mainly the Gingerbread boy I met 8 months ago, and that purple haired girl who keeps calling me Blueberry Chocolate Cookie?” High Voltage Cookie asked.

“Just do what the justice system did to the lawyers who lose their cases back in my time. Slaughter them all.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

Causing the remaining friends to be really shocked by that news.

“What? What kind of rule is that?” Gingerbrave Asked in shock.

“Please tell me that’s not a real rule.” Strawberry Milk Cookie said in shock too.

“Sorry guys, but it’s true. A lawyer who is helping a criminal, gets the same sentence as them. Whether that be through jail time or my personal favourite, the death penalty.” Quiet Raven Cookie replied happily.

And so with him gone,

All of his loyal followers were ready to personally kill all of the Ancient of Freedom’s friends…

This does not look good…

Especially to Dark Eclipse Cookie…

As with White Lily Cookie gone,

And since she is the most powerful member in their team…

They’re freaking screwed now…

…

…

…

“Lights out, you intruders.” Polar Prince Cookie said angrily.

Before eventually he slashes the first cookie he sees,

That being Gingerbrave, right in the forehead.

Causing not only his head to start bleeding out,

But for the poor boy himself to collapse onto the ground.

And starts to pass out…

With the last things he hears before he goes unconscious,

Was the panicked cries of Dark Eclipse Cookie,

Who knew from White Lily Cookie herself that the young 15 year old boy still trusts her alongside Pure Vanilla Cookie…

“Gingerbrave!”

And the sounds of laughter coming from one of the followers.

Mainly Quiet Raven Cookie herself…

Before eventually everything went dark for him…

…

The Vanilla Kingdom: 9am.

…

…

…

Meanwhile back at the Vanilla Kingdoms,

Pure Vanilla Cookie has gathered the members of the Vanilla Kingdom community.

To talk about a recent discovery.

With the members being there are him, his boyfriend Shadow Milk Cookie,

And the 3 cookies from New Apple City {AKA Psychic Cookie, Illusion Cookie and Sports Drink Cookie}

Plus a surprise guest to talk about it…

…

…

…

“Greetings everyone. I’m so glad that you three were able to join me and the Sage of Truth on another great meeting today.” Pure Vanilla Cookie said happily to all of them.

“Look Pure Vanilla Cookie. We were told that someone would be giving a presentation about something they found. So where are they?” Illusion Cookie asked.

“Oh don’t worry, she’s already here. Just examining the crystal she recently found.” Shadow Milk Cookie replied.

And so he was able to call out to the cookie {Who looks like Doctor K from Power Rangers: RPM},

To get her to come to the meetings table.

And once she did.

The trio was amazed at how good she looks.

As not only does she have black hair,

But she also has black like butterfly wings,

But it seems to be wearing a lab coat.

“Everyone meet Black Moth Cookie. She’s currently the science teacher at the upcoming Fount of Knowledge Academy.” The healer introduces her to the rest.

To which she looks slightly annoyed to be introduced like that.

As the school is still not ready to be opened yet.

As it still needs a lot more building and staff recruiting.

But anyways…

“Why thank you for the introduction Pure Vanilla Cookie. I’m also half-faerie meaning that the black wings on me are not fake, I was just literally born with it.” Black Moth Cookie said to the healer.

“Oh, that’s neat.” Psychic Cookie said to her.

“So Black Moth. Tell us about the strange little crystal you found the other day.” Shadow Milk Cookie said to the science teacher.

To which she complies.

…

“Very well. Behold. {She then shows everyone a teal coloured crystal that’s in a shape of a lotus, I’m sure that’s nothing to be foreshadowed later} This here is what I like to call, the Water Lotus Dragon Crystal.” Black Moth Cookie said.

“Okay, and so what does it do?” Sports Drink Cookie asked.

“And why is it in the form of a lotus? I mean I saw other crystals look like flowers at a jewel y store in New Apple City. But never this one.” Psychic Cookie also asked.

“Well as for the lotus shape, I’m not so sure myself. But I theorise that may have to do with one of the five dragons I’ve been researching about. Plus unlike the Greenish Fire Dragon Crystal that is attracted to well fire. Look at what happened when I pour water onto this crystal.” Black Moth Cookie replied.

So she grabs a jug of water,

And pours it onto the crystal.

And instead of it getting wet.

It actually starting having the water move around in front of it.

Like it’s controlling it to do so.

With the siblings and even the Truth and Deceit Duo being shocked and amazed by it.

With the only one who wasn’t being Sports Drink Cookie.

As to him,

It looked fake…

“Eh, I’ve seen better water effects in movies and shows than this. So this is probably fake.” The jock said unimpressively.

But turns out that the science teacher doesn’t like it when her works are called fake.

So she flips out on him.

“It is not, fake! The magnetic pulse of this crystal is making the water do it’s bidding by having it morph into beautiful shapes and-“ She yelled at him.

Before eventually she got her mouth covered by Sage of Truth.

So that she wouldn’t scare the trio.

Especially since they weren’t expecting her to be this into her own work.

“Wow never seen her this mad over a crystal before.” Illusion Cookie said.

“Yeah me too, sibling.” Psychic Cookie also said in surprise.

Before eventually they hear a voice,

Which turns out to be from a cookie. {Who looks like Ziggy from Power Rangers: RPM}

Who was right beside the jock all this time.

“Yeah she can be quiet or serious sometimes. But she really hates it when a cookie calls her work fake. That’s just how she feels sometimes.” He said.

Causing the trio to be shocked about him.

“Who the ovens are you, dude?” Sports Drink cookie asked in shock.

“{Small chuckles} Oh I forgot to tell you all that we have 2 surprise guests here. Everyone meet Wheat Cereal Cookie. He and Black Moth Cookie are a bit like me and bluebird. In the sense that they’re both dating and while one of them is filled with sunshine, the other one is filled with grey clouds, but they love them anyways.” Pure Vanilla Cookie said happily.

“Thanks Pure Vanilla Cookie. After all there is nothing that could come between me and my beautiful girlfriend.” Wheat Cereal Cookie happily said to the healer.

As he walks towards the science teacher.

“Well I’m glad to see that your’e here in this meetings too.” Black Moth Cookie said to him.

Before eventually the two of them share a kis,

Which Pure Vanilla Cookie finds cute.

“Aw. They are a bit like us, is that right bluebird?” The healer asked his boyfriend.

But as he did…

He failed to notice that by this time,

The Sage of Truth looked very traumatised and angry about something…

Much to the worries of the Ancient of Truth.

“Bluebird?” The healer asked worriedly to him again.

Inside of the redeemed jester’s mind.

He remembers what happened during the Great Beast Wars.

Congratulating his minions on being the MVPs of this wars,

Noticing that Evangelion Cookie wasn’t with them…

Getting trapped underneath that giant fork,

Before eventually…

He saw…

He saw…

He saw…

…

…

…

“What have you done!? How dare you use the sealing spell on all of us, you traitor!” Shadow Milk Cookie angrily yelled out.

Much to the worries of everyone who heard him say that,

Especially of course, Pure Vanilla Cookie.

As he sees that the Sage of Truth’s hair has returned back to his blackness,

With the blue eyes on them too…

As now he was concerned for him.

“Shadow Milk Cookie? Are you alright?” The healer asked worriedly.

And just when he was about to touch him,

The redeemed jester flips out…

“No don’t touch me! Don’t you dare {bleep}ing touch me! I remember everything! The screams, the terrors, the puppets I made including who really sealed us away all those years ago!” Shadow Milk Cookie yelled at his boyfriend.

“What? What are you talking about? Didn’t you say that it was the witches who sealed you all away?” Pure Vanilla Cookie asked.

To which the Sage of Truth finally admits the truth,

To everyone inside this room…

…

…

…

“I’m sorry you all. I didn’t mean to lie to you about the event.”

“But truth is, it wasn’t the witches who helped Elder Faerie Cookie seal away me and the other beasts.”

“It was instead the Beast of Silence himself, Silent Salt Cookie.”

“That’s right. The former Salt of Solidarity himself and his husband, used a forbidden spell to seal us all away.” Shadow Milk Cookie explains everything.

Causing all of them to be shocked at that truth bomb…

Including the healer himself…

“What? It was Silent Salt Cookie?” Pure Vanilla Cookie said in shock.

…

…

…

…

…

Chapter Text

…

…

…

…

…

After that truth bomb,

Everyone in this meetings room were trying to figure out what they are gonna do.

Now that they have learnt that it wasn’t the witches who alongside Elder Faerie Cookie sealed away the beast.

It was actually Silent Salt Cookie himself.

…

…

…

“Well seems like one of your theories came true after all, Psychic.” Illusion Cookie said to their brother.

“Yeah, I know. Like I got a feeling that maybe the witches weren’t apart of the sealing process. But I never thought it would be from a beast himself.” Psychic Cookie said back to them.

Including unfortunately enough,

Shadow Milk Cookie.

Who was still panicking about not only what happened in the past,

But also the fact that he literally killed the Beast of Silence’s husband.

And how pissed Silent Salt Cookie would be if he found out…

This is not okie dokie!

But fortunately though,

Pure Vanilla Cookie was there to see how much the redeemed jester was able to change himself.

From the Beast of Deceit to the Sage of Truth.

So in order to calm him down,

The compassionate healer gave him a big hug.

Which seemed to work.

“I’m sorry Nilly. I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you this before. But I have changed right? You still believe me right?” The Sage of Truth asked his boyfriend.

to which the healer smiles at him.

“Of course I do. As I saw how much you changed for the better. And I’m so glad to see that you are trying your best to recover from the past and moving on to a brighter future. And that’s more than enough reasons for me to believe you and still love you.” Pure Vanilla Cookie happily replied to him.

Before he gives him a small kiss on the cheeks.

Followed by the redeemed jester giving him a hug back.

“Thank you Nilly, for still believing in me.” Shadow Milk Cookie said to him.

“Your’e welcome, bluebird.” Pure Vanilla Cookie happily said back to his boyfriend.

Showing that no matter what happened in the past,

At least they are both healing together.

Much to the happiness of the others here in this room.

Hollyberry Kingdom: 9PM {As yeah I do believe that all 4 kingdoms of Crispia has different time zones}

…

…

…

It was night already inside this Kingdom of Romance.

And inside one of the Kingdom’s most beautiful fountains.

Was a pink clam fit for 2 faeries. {If you get the reference, I’ll be so happy as I love that book series as a kid}

And right now inside of it,

Pavlova Cookie was just peacefully sleeping in a bed.

Seems like things have gotten a lot better for him and his sweetheart Sugarfly Cookie since their escape from the gardens 3 months ago.

But then he gets woken up by the lightest tap on the pink clam.

And when he pulls off his sleeping mask to see what it is.

At first he thought it was giants,

Or worse, a 6 eyed giant.

“Ah! Giant!” The Cupid screamed.

Before eventually he realises who was actually there to see him.

“Oh wait nevermind. It’s just you three. Boy, did you all gave me a fright.” Pavlova Cookie said with relief.

Turns out that the 3 cookies that were there to see both him and Sugarfly Cookie {Who is not in better with the former for some reason.},

Is Hollyberry Cookie. {Whose awakening caused her to now have light pink hair on her},

Wildberry Cookie,

And Tiger Lily Cookie. {Who was on her tiger right now.}

But it appears that the three are worried about something.

As a few minutes ago,

Hollyberry Cookie got a message from Pure Vanilla Cookie.

About something that happened.

So she explained to the Cupid about what happened to Elder Faerie Cookie 8 months ago.

And let’s just say,

He was shocked to hear about it…

…

…

…

“What? No way. How could he be dead? He was supposed to be a really strong king. Especially when I was still around.” Pavlova Cookie said to the Ancient of Passion in shock.

“Yeah me too. Even though I haven’t heard about him until now. But remember when you told me about how close your girlfriend was to the king of the faeries? Yeah I think it’s for the best that we tell her the sad news too.” Hollyberry Cookie said back to him sadly.

“Speaking of which, where is your girlfriend, little Cupid?” Tiger Lily Cookie asked.

As her speech patterns was improving a lot better since her return to the Hollyberry Kingdom.

To which he tries to see if the Faerie was still in bed with him.

Turns out however that she’s not.

Much to the Cupid’s worries.

As it turns out that ever since their escape from the gardens,

Sugarfly Cookie has a tendency to sleepwalk all over the entire Hollyberry Kingdom every night.

As he had to go find her and bring her safely back home.

Plus to her, it’s basically helping her get through with the trauma she experienced being someone different then she originally was for thousands of years,

Thanks to Eternal Sugar Cookie’s hold on her.

But luckily it seems like that Hollyberry Cookie and her granddaughter and adopted son would be able to help him find where his sweetheart is right now.

“Don’t worry Pavlova. I’m sure we’ll be able to find her before anything bad happens.” Hollyberry Cookie said to the Cupid with determination.

“Yeah, especially since we have the help of Tiger Lily Cookie’s brother over here. Who is really good at sniffing out strong scent.” Wildberry Cookie also said to him happily.

“Yeah! Brother’s the best.” Tiger Lily Cookie said happily to her tiger,

As she gives him a head pat.

“Wait, so her tiger name is literally brother?” Pavlova Cookie asked.

“No. We named her tiger brother Mamoru and his mate Usagi. As we thought it would be fitting for the two lovebirds. But she still calls him brother. As well she was raised alongside him for a good 19 years.” Hollyberry Cookie replied.

And so with the help of Mamoru,

They were able to track down where exactly Sugarfly Cookie was right now inside of the Hollyberry Kingdoms.

…

…

…

Turns out that it was not pretty…

As when they do find her,

They see her just standing near the docks of the water,

Talking to no one,

Or rather who she sees in her sleep.

So wanting to make sure that she’s fine,

The Hollyberry family and even Pavlova Cookie quietly watches,

To see who she is talking to right now…

And turns out that her dreams are a lot more sad then sweet…

…

…

…

“Hello there again, Elder Faerie Cookie. Don’t you recognise me? It’s me, your daughter. Sugarfly Cookie.” She said to herself,

Dreaming about reuniting with her father figure Elder Faerie Cookie.

“So she talks in her sleep too?” Wildberry Cookie asked.

“Yeah, pretty much.” Pavlova Cookie replied.

But then just when Sugarfly Cookie was about to literally fall off the deep end on the docks,

To prove to the dream version of the king of the faeries that she can still fly with her new sweet like wings.

She was thankfully stopped by her boyfriend and the Hollyberry Family.

Before eventually she wakes up through the sounds of her sweetheart.

Who was very glad to see that she’s okay.

“Pavlova Cookie? Oh no, don’t tell me I also t fell in my sleep again?” The faerie asked her sweetheart while being embarrassed for literally sleepwalking again.

“Yes you did. But don’t worry, I was helped by our many great friends who still support our sweet relationship.” Pavlova Cookie replied to her.

Which made the faerie thankful for Hollyberry Cookie and the kids.

But it was now time for the Ancient of Passion to tell her,

What actually happened to Elder Faerie Cookie.

Now that she’s fully awake.

…

…

…

“Sugarfly Cookie? We need to talk. I got a message from Pure Vanilla Cookie on my Souljam. And one of them, is about Elder Faerie Cookie.” Hollyberry Cookie sadly said to her.

Which made the faerie happy to hear.

As she has been longing to reunite with her father and her 2 sons for like 3 months now.

It’s even why she’s been sending them letters to the Silver Kingdoms.

So that they get to learn about her and that she is their sister.

“Really it is? What did he say? Because I bet he’ll be happy to see me again after being gone from him all those years.” SugarFly Cookie happily asked.

“No, no sweetie. It’s actually bad news.” Hollyberry Cookie replied to her sadly.

Causing the mood on her face to chance to that of bittersweet sadness.

“What do you mean?” Sugarfly Cookie asked.

And so as she takes a big sigh of sadness,

Hollyberry Cookie tells her the awful truth…

…

…

…

“I’m sorry. But your’e never gonna see him again. As he’s gone from this Earthbread. But at least he was able to die peacefully protecting the kingdom and even the silver tree.” Hollyberry Cookie sadly tells her.

…

…

…

At first all Sugarfly Cookie could do was pretend to cry,

Thinking that this is a sick joke.

And that there would be no way in ovens that her father could be dead…

But with each time she pretends to cry.

The more tears falls from her face.

Before eventually she clings onto her boyfriend,

And starts genuinely crying in agony and despair. {Just like how I did when my dad died 2 years ago)

While he hugs her back in an attempt to comfort her,

But all it did was cause him to cry alongside her.

With Hollyberry Cookie, Wildberry Cookie and even Tiger Lily Cookie and her brother Tiger watching the whole thing in worries and sadness.

Just like with Silent Salt Cookie,

Sugarfly Cookie didn’t know that Elder Faerie Cookie was dead all along until now…

But when she finally found out,

It just makes things a whole lot sadder…

And hurts even worse too…

As no one deserves to lose a parental figure.

Not even a faerie who saw the king of the faeries as her own dad,

Especially during her time as a royal guard for the Silver Kingdom…

As nothing was more sad,

Then a daughter crying for her long gone dad…

…

…

Dark Cacao Kingdom: 7:30am.

Yesterday was the prince’s 28th birthday.

And the first one since he returned to the Dark Cacao Kingdom.

And even though he already had his cake and his presents,

His 2 fathers decided to give him one more present after his real birthday.

Because of how much amazing work he’’s been doing,

With redeeming himself to some of the citizens,

And healing his relationship with his father: Dark Cacao Cookie.

…

…

…

…

…

“So Appa. What’s the emergency today? Mountain lion attack? 2 Citizens having a debate? The licorice seas trying to get past our walls?” Dark Choco Cookie asked his father.

“{small chuckles} No my boy. The emergency is behind this door right at the end of the hallways.” Dark Cacao Cookie replied to him.

And as they stop walking,

They come across a door.

Which the Prince recognises what it was,

And yet was still confused about what’s going on.

“Your main office? Why are we going inside there?” The prince asked.

“Well see for yourself, young prince.” Peach Blossom Cookie replied.

And so as they all opened the door,

Dark Choco Cookie was greeted by not only Crunchy Chip Cookie, Caramel Arrow Cookie. Moon Rabbit Cookie and Arctic Cat Cookie.

But also a young boy named Choco-Token Cookie {AKA Tolkien from South Park},

Who turns out to be under the apprentice of the Prince himself.

“Happy late birthday Dark Choco Cookie!” Everyone in the entire room shouted.

“And here’s your pwesent!” Moon Rabbit Cookie happily said to the prince.

And turns out that his late birthday present,

Is a small little cream wolf pup,

Who immediately walks toward him,

And even start nuzzling on his kegs.

Which he finds cute,

But he was still confused why he is given a cream wolf pup.

To which the siblings explain to him.

…

…

…

“Look I get it. Normally the cream wolves here grow up to become either a pet or a warrior. Especially those inside the Dark Cacao Kingdom.” Crunchy Chip Cookie said.

“So after you returned to the kingdom, me and baby brother decided to introduce a new job for the cream wolves to have.” Arctic Cat Cookie said to him.

“And we both like to call it. The Therapy Dogs.” Both the wolf captain and the doctor happily said together.

“And guess what? You are given the first ever Therapy dog. Wich is this little girl named Hope.” Crunchy Chip Cookie said to the prince happily.

As he points to the cream wolf pup,

Who is still nuzzling the prince’s leg.

“We were able to find her a month ago, as she was crying about the death of her parents. Possibly killed by a bunch of hunters during Cream Wolf season. And Hope being the only survivor of her pack. But don’t worry we were able to take her back to the kingdom and helped her grow big and strong. Plus from what I see, she might be the only cream wolf to stay small even as she gets old.” Arctic Cat Cookie said.

“And once your birthday came around. We both knew that she would be the perfect gift for you. Now that you have been starting to go to therapy with my sister.” Crunchy Chip Cookie also said happily.

…

“So what did you think Nae Agi? Do you love the gift?” Dark Cacao Cookie asked his son happily.

To which the prince immediately picks her up.

And hugs her.

As ever since his return,

He’s been treated with love,

Respect,

And care.

Something that he hadn’t gotten during his early years.

But now ontop of getting a therapy dog of his own.

It makes him feel happy.

“This is the best birthday present I have ever been given. Thanks everyone.” Dark Choco Cookie said happily,

With tears coming out of his eyes.

“Your’e welcome my prince. After all we want to make sure that you are alright. Especially after the whole corruption you’ve gotten from that evil sword.” Caramel Arrow Cookie said back to her brother.

But then just before everyone could celebrate his late birthday.

Suddenly Dark Cacao Cookie gets a message from Hollyberry Cookie on his soujam.

And when she tells him everything,

Especially that it was one of the beasts that sealed away the most evil cookies ever,

Not the witches.

He immediately bolts to one of the phones in the castle,

And rings one of the cookies from the Realm of Apathy,

Apart from his lover Peach Blossom Cookie,

Who turns out to be Rain Dance Cookie.

Who happily picks up the phone back in Creme Republic.

…

…

…

Rain Dance Cookie: “HELLO THERE YOU HAVE REACHED THE CASTLE OF THE CREME REPUBLIC. UNFORTUNATELY THE PRINCE IS NOT HERE RIGHT NOW AS HE’S-“

Dark Cacao Cookie: “RAIN DANCE COOKIE! WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME THAT THE WITCHES BANISHING THE BEASTS WAS NOT THE REAL STORY? DID YOU MISSED SOME CRUCIAL DETAILS OR SOMETHING? ANSWER ME! {Calms down} SORRY ABOUT THAT. I’M STILL LEARNING HOW TO CONTROL MY ANGER, ESPECIALLY TOWARDS MY SON.”

Rain Dance Cookie: “YEAH I GUESS YOUR’E RIGHT. AND YEAH IT;S TRUE. SILENT SALT COOKIE DID IN FACT SEALED AWAY THE BEASTS. NOT ONLY THAT BUT I RECENTLY LEARNED THAT MYSTIC FLOUR COOKIE WAS ACTUALLY THERE INSIDE THE BATTLEFIELD. NOT WRAPPED UP IN HER OWN MUMMIFIED STATE WHEN THE GREAT BEAST WARS HAPPENED.”

Dark Cacao Cookie: “SO IF THAT IS TRUE? THEN WHY DID EVERYONE BELIEVED THAT IT WAS THE WITCHES? IT DOESN’T MAKE ANY SENSE WHATSOEVER.”

Rain Dance Cookie: “YEAH ME TOO. MAYBE BECAUSE THE BEASTS ARE IRREDEEMABLE MONSTERS THAT THE LAST SURVIVING COOKIES OF THIS WARS STARTED TO BELIEVE THAT THE WITCHES SAVED THEM ALONGSIDE ELDER FAERIE COOKIE. EVEN THOUGH WE NOW KNOW THAT THE BEASTS EXITING WAS THEM BEING CORRUPTED AND EVEN BEING THE VICTIM OF THEIR OWN STORY.”

Dark Cacao Cookie: “YEAH, ESPECIALLY WITH MYSTIC FLOUR COOKIE. WHO I’M STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE SHE MIGHT BE NOW. AS I STILL WANT TO REDEEM HER. EVEN AFTER SHE PUT AN ENTIRE PLAGUE ON MY KINGDOM.”

Rain Dance Cookie: “YEAH I FEEL YOU. I FEEL YOU. ANYWAYS THANKS FOR CALLING ME ABOUT THIS. BYE!”

{End of phone call.}

Golden Cheese Kingdom: 7:30PM.

…

…

…

…

…

“Oh Golden Sovereign. It’s time for dinner!” Ghost Owl Cookie said happily.

Trying to call out to Golden Cheese Cookie.

But when she didn’t respond.

He decides to go look for where she is,

As right now it was time for dinner for the Ancient of Abundance herself.

But when he looked for her everywhere in her own castle.

He sees that she’s already there.

Finishing up eating her dinner,

Alongside both her general Smoked Cheese Cookie,

And Kaufi, who was comfortable in the Generals shoulders.

Much to the surprise of the owl like cookie.

“Oh I see that your’e already finished with dinner. Did my Blitzy helped you make the food again? Because I love how good of a cook he is.” Ghost Owl Cookie asked her.

“Actually today was the first day that I decided to cook dinner for me and my general. And turns out that even after 7 years inside that virtual world. I still have my amazing cooking skills inside of me.” Golden Cheese Cookie replied to him happily.

“Oh, didn’t know you’ve been doing stuff for yourself lately. Is this your first one?” Ghost Owl Cookie asked.

To which she explains to him that no it’s not.

While she is busy washing up the dishes in the sink.

…

…

…

“No Ghost Owl Cookie. I’ve been doing a lot of things on my own. Plus I’ve became more humble and is spending some of my gold for a lot of good stuff.”

“Like last week ago I gave Desert Porcupine enough money she needed to buy some flowers for a boy with bear like ears she met inside a forest.”

“Or 2 weeks ago i bought some new school outfit for Fettucine Cookie. So that she won’t get bullied for looking like an actual money.”

“And just 2 months ago a bought two tickets for both Burnt Cheese Cookie and Mozzarella Cookie to both have a paid day off in beautiful Las Sparkles.”

“I guess you can say, I’m like Flithy Rich Cookie at the end of A Christmas Carol.” Golden Cheese Cookie said.

“Yeah I’m so proud of her. Especially since sh’e been using her gold to make other happy. Right Kaufi?” Smoked Cheese Cookie asked the kulfi.

“Yeah me too Macaque, fi. Me too, fi.” Kaufi replied to him.

Just then the Golden Sovereign sees that her phone is ringing,

And sees that is from Dark Cacao Cookie.

So when she hears the big news from him.

Especially about the last remaining beast on Beast-Yeast: Silent Salt Cookie.

She decides to have a private talk with her general about it.

As she takes both him and the kulfi inside one of the halls of the pyramid.

…

…

…

“What? Silent Salt Cookie was the one to seal away the beasts? Not the witches actually?” Smoked Cheese Cookie asked the Ancient of Abundance in shock.

“Yeah. Well that’s what told me. I don’t know. The only beast I ever know about, is Burning Spice Cookie. and I bet that this Silent Salt Cookie is more dangerous and powerful then he is.” Golden Cheese Cookie replied to him.

“So what are we supposed to do? Especially we made a promise to each other that we shall never go back to that hellhole again.” Smoked Cheese Cookie asked.

To which Golden Cheese Cookie stares at the moon.

And finally makes her decision.

As it appears that it’s now time for her to meet an old ex-friend of hers.

“Oh I’ll tell you what we’re going to do. Smoked Cheese Cookie. It’s time that we pay White Lily Cookie a little visit.” Golden Cheese Cookie replied to her general.

With determination on her face.

…

…

…

…

…

…

…

…

Meanwhile back inside the Catacombs of Silence-

…

…

…

…

…

While sure getting wrapped up in a lot of metal chains sound really painful.

At least she was finally get to see what the surface looked like.

And boy did it not dissapoint…

As infront of her was the giant moon,

The surface was littered with a lot of dead cookie bodies,

And even skulls,

While banners keep swaying from the winds of the surface…

Before eventually she sees the Beast of Silence himself.

And he starts to talk to her.

Especially since they last time they spoke to each other,

He was very angry at her for the death of his husband Elder Faerie Cookie.

But here he’s actually soft?

I don’t know if it’s mood swing or not.

But at least he’s sorry about it.

…

…

…

“Sorry for yelling at you back at the trials room. I’ve been dealing with the corruption inside of me ever since I became this.” Silent Salt Cookie apologised to her.

“So, your’e not like the other beasts?” White Lily Cookie asked.

“No I’m not. As unlike them whose plans are really evil. All I want to do is to see my people again. The ones I lost during the wars. But it’s fine if you see me as a villain. As that’s all I’ll ever be, ever since destroying that moon all those years ago.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

“So you didn’t actually want to become a beast?” White Lily Cookie worriedly asked.

“No I didn’t neither of us wanted to. But we had no choice. As we were just sick and tired of everyone turning their backs on us. And expecting is to be fearless and powerful. Even though we’re not. As on the inside we’re struggling so badly. That’s the reality of being a virtue. And to you, an ancient.” Silent Salt Cookie replied.

“Did something wrong happen for all of you to turn into this? As because all of the faeries told me that you were the most dangerous beast of them all. I never thought you would be more different then that.” The Ancient of Freedom asked him.

To which the Beast of Silence was forced to tell her everything.

“Fine. I’ll explain everything to you.” He said to her annoyedly.

And so he speaks…

…

…

…

“You see, we were happy to be virtues. Well for the first few hundred of years.”

“And everyone had their own role to help out the cookies in the entirety of Earthbread.”

“The Fount of Knowledge taught all of the cookies about the Earthbread we grew up in.”

“The Herald of Change watches his entire kingdom grow and grow including being kind to the kulfis who lives in his kingdom.”

“The Saint of Volition grants cookies their wish.”

“The Bringer of Happiness gives everyone the most perfect paradise to ever stay and live in.”

“And there’s of course me, the Salt of Solidarity. Who was the king of his own kingdom and the commander of the Kala Namak soldiers.”

“Everyone loved us, everyone respected us. They all see what great heroes we were.”

‘And yet, they didn’t see that behind the bravery and smiles. We were also struggling a lot.”

“And that came apartment when the witches stopped talking to us.”

“As soon we all started to have our own problems to deal with.”

“Problems so strong that it changed our beliefs and turned us into the beasts all of cookie kinds hate now.”

“The Beast of Deceit wanted to gain back the respect he had when his students called his knowledge worthless and crappy.”

“The Beast of Destruction became bored to the fact that his kingdom was changing.”

“The Beast of Apathy was treated horribly and even nearly been abused to death by a bunch of greedy cookies who weren’t satisfied with their own wishes.”

“And the Beast of Sloth wanted a child of her own. But kept having miscarriages and miscarriages after the witches decided she’s not worth having any baby. Even after she begged them to let her. So she could feel very happy and loved by someone who understands her for the first time.” {Wait a minute. She told Hollyberry Cookie that it was her confusion of what her true happiness was that caused he to get corrupted. Something’s not right here…}

“I thought I would be lucky. Because I had no problems in me to become corrupted just like them.”

“But no! That all changed when that witches forsaken Beast Wars started.”

“And I lost everything.”

“I had to watch my daughter get burnt alive inside our old castle.”

“My 3 soldiers all died one by one.”

“With Silver Coin Cookie getting his head chopped off. Rose Quartz Cookie getting strangled to death. And Grey pepper Cookie who always calls my daughter by small lady. DISSAPEARED into nothing but flour right in front of me eyes.”

“And so without any warnings, I snapped.”

“Killing a thousand cookies who stood in my way after seeing me get corrupted. And even slicing up the very moon you see right now.”

“But despite that. I am not like the others. As I want to change for the better.”

“Bring my people back to life and even see my husband and kids again.”

“But no, it will never happen. And the cookies will never forgive me because I’m the villain.”

“Despite me wanting to change for a better. And even trying to get a second chance.”

“But what’s the point? If everyone still sees you as a villain? Then what’s the point in changing?”

“As no matter how hard you try. No one will forgive you or love you again.”

“And Saint Lily Cookie. I’m sorry for what’s gonna happen to you.” Silent Salt Cookie explained to her.

At first she was confused by what he means by that.

“What do you-“ She tries to ask.

Before suddenly…

…

…

…

…

…

{Anime like gasp}

Right behind her,

Were 4 cookies.

Except those cookies were a lot more familar to her…

Turns out that right behind her,

Were her friends…

Or rather the version of them who lost to their beasts.

There was Truthless Recluse,

The Protector of Paradise AKA Heavenberry Cookie,

The Dusk of Silence,

And of course the Architect of Abudnace.

And they were all looking at her really angry.

And at first she was shocked and confused to see her friends looking like that.

“What the? What happened to you guys? Why do you all look so weird?” She asked in worries.

Before eventually one of them spoke.

“Ah, don’t you see White Lily Cookie. We have all been defeated by our own beasts. And now we serve them.” Truthless Recluse replied to her.

What?

No this can’t be…

He has to be lying right?

“What no? You can’t be lying? There’s no way in Earthbread that this is true.” She said worriedly.

“Oh yeah? What makes you think that we’re the same friends you used to love and respect?” Heavenberry Cookie asked.

“Because I received letters from you all about what’s been going on with you ever since Beast-Yeast. I have proof right here!” White Lily Cookie replied.

As she pulls out each 4 letters from her friends.

Trying to prove that this is not real,

And this is a fake reality.

But soon she starts to realise that maybe, just maybe,

The letters are not enough…

“Lies. Fake. Deception. Do you really think that we’ve all been living happily ever since our adventures? Because all is void, all is apathy.” Dusk of Silence said to her,

Very coldly and emotionlessly too.

Before suddenly the Architect of Abundance grabs her letters.

And starts angrily looking at her.

“Yeah Dusk of Silence right you know. We wouldn’t be sending letters to you. Not after what you did to all of us! In fact we’re gonna show you how it feels to be defeated by our own beast!” She said to White Lily Cookie angrily,

Before she starts tearing apart the letters.

Much to the sadness of White Lily Cookie.

Who immediately starts running away in fear.

Before suddenly she falls through a hole underneath the surface.

Prompting all of the bad end ancients to follow her.

…

…

…

…

…

Wow, who knew falling could be this nostalgic right?

At least it can’t get any worse right?

Wrong as soon she sees her so called friends falling towards her,

Before eventually they start singing towards her.

Reminding her that no matter how hard she tries to change her,

She’ll always be a vial in.

And no one will ever forgive her for being Dark Enchantress Cookie…

…

{Creator’s Note: the song for this intense scene will be Takedown from KPop Demon Hunters. Please enjoy.}

…

…

…

…

Everyone: 🎵”Takedown, takedown, takedown, down, down. Takedown, takedown, takedown, down, down.”🎵

Heavenberry Cookie: 🎵”Yeah it’s time to pay your crimes.”🎵

Truthless Recluse: 🎵”It’s a takedown.”🎵

Soon White Lily Cookie lands on a floor,

And when she gets back up.

She sees that right now she’s in a black void all by herself.

But not for long as soon,

The Architect of Abundance starts singing to her.

Like she’s doing a diss track against her.

Which is probably is…

Unfortunately for her…

Architect of Abundance: 🎵”So sweet, so easy on the eyes, but hideous on the inside.”🎵

🎵”Whole life spreadin’ chaos, bet you could hide, well your’e screwed now.”🎵

And with each bad end ancients singing,

The background keeps changing to the places where they have been defeated by their beast counterparts.

With it changing from the hot dessert of the Land of Fire and Ruins,

To sweet like paradise of the Garden of Delights.

Once Heavenberry Cookie has a turn at singing.

Heavenberry Cookie: 🎵”I’m ‘bout to switch up these vibes, I’ve finally woke up my eyes.”🎵

🎵”It’s time to shield bash you straight back to the dough.”🎵

“Okay that’s enough singing!” White Lily Cookie said nervously,

As the Protector of Paradise got too close to her face.

While singing that to her.

Before eventually the background changes to that of the realm of apathy.

With the Ancient of Freedom seeing who’s singing next.

Dusk of Silence: 🎵”Cause I see your real face, and it remind me of him.”🎵

🎵”My Life’s greatest regret who I have no sympathy for.”🎵

“Please stop singing, I’m sure we can work this out.” White Lily Cookie said.

As she was staring to become a lot more worried about why her friends are basically singing a diss track against her.

Before suddenly she gets grabbed by Truthless Recluse himself,

Who tries to make her take off her dress.

Truthless Recluse: 🎵”When your dark soul start to show. I see a pain that lies below of you.”🎵

“Stop it! Please! Let go of me!” The Ancient of Freedom begged.

Before eventually she’s in a different room.

Where the only ones there are both the Dusk of Silence and the Architect of Abundance.

With both the Realm of Apathy and the Land of Fire and Ruins have been mixed together.

Showing her that her actions are like fire.

And the more fire spread to her friends,

the more damages have been caused by her.

Before eventually it all comes crashing down…

Dusk of Silence and Architect of Abundance: 🎵”I don’t think your’e ready for the takedown!”🎵

🎵”Break you into pieces like you did to us! Cause you’re a rotten pig!”🎵

“Why are you all acting like this?” She asked filled with sorrows and sadness.

As she doesn’t know why her friends are berating her,

When she has worked so hard to try and gain back the trust between her and her friends.

before eventually she sees the two of them walking towards her menacingly.

🎵”Yeah it’s a takedown! A demon with no feelings don’t deserve to live. it’s so obvious.”🎵

🎵”I’ma gear up and take you down!”🎵

Their hits causes her to get transported to some of the memories from her friends.

And awful ones at worst…

Such as the entire destruction of the Golden Cheese Kingdoms,

The slashing incident between Dark Cacao Cookie and Dark Choco Cookie,

And the moment when the Ancient of Resolution called his son. His life’s greatest regret.

All of them that made White Lily Cookie the most guilty ridden about.

Before suddenly she almost gets killed by a spear thrown by the Architect of Abundance.

Who will be happy in seeing her get killed by those spears.

…

…

…

The Architect of Abundance: 🎵”It’s a takedown, I’ma crumble you, just like you did to my people.”🎵

🎵”It’s a takedown i’ma a tear you apart, just like you did to my heart.”🎵

Just when she thought the spears have stopped,

Suddenly she sees the Dusk of Silence coming towards her with his own sword,

And even tries to slash her down with it.

Including in the same way as his son…

Dusk of Silence: 🎵”The words and scars you’ve implemented me, just like I did to my son.”🎵

🎵”You’ll be begging and crying, wishing it didn’t happen, but it eventually did.”🎵

Before suddenly she sees the Protector of Paradise coming towards her,

And grabs her by the arm,

And eventually flies her towards somewhere.

Heavenberry Cookie: 🎵”When your dark soul starts to show, my shield will happily show you to your grave.”🎵

🎵”I don’t think your’e ready for the takedown.”🎵

Soon she’s in what appears to be the Eternal Paradise.

And infront of Heavenberry Cookie turns out to be jars of jam,

All cracking,

Before eventually flooding the entire place,

And causing the poor ancient of freedom to nearly drown in them.

🎵”Why not come to paradise, and sleep forever.”🎵

🎵”You’ll never be sad again.”🎵

Until thankfully she gets saved by someone,

Who unfortunately turns out to be Truthless Recluse himself.

Who looks at her with anger in his eyes.

🎵”Yeah it’s a takedown. A demon who’s a liar don’t deserve to live. It’s so obvious.”🎵

Heavenberry Cookie and Truthless Recluse: 🎵”I’ma gear up and take you down.”🎵

With Truthless Recluse eventually letting her go,

Causing White Lily Cookie to now be underneath the jam,

Before it makes her feel like that she’s falling through a rabbit hole.

Making her reminisce more awful memories she did as Dark Enchantress Cookie.

Before eventually she’s now inside the Spire of Shadows.

Where awaits her is Truthless Recluse.

Who is a lot less friendly and a lot more angry than the actual Pure Vanilla Cookie.

As it seems like he had lost faith in her,

And no longer sees her as a friend…

…

…

…

Truthless Recluse: 🎵”Oh, you’re the mistress of corruption.”🎵

🎵”Don’t you dare try to fool me now.”🎵

🎵”Look at all the friends that you have fooled with. But they’ll turn on you soon.”🎵

Before eventually he starts walking towards her,

As anger keeps on building and building inside of him.

As the background starts to become more and more corrupted.

The more angrier his singing gets.

🎵So why? Why don’t you give up.”🎵

🎵”And accept that your’e just. A broken soul trapped in a nastiest shell.”🎵

🎵”Once filled with freedom, now with silence.”🎵

🎵”Glad we here to watch you die-ie-ie.”🎵

Architect of Abundance: 🎵”You can try, but you won’t change.”🎵

Before suddenly metal chains start appearing around her again,

And starts tangling her up again,

This time burning her.

Showing that no matter how hard she tries to change herself.

She will always and will be.

Dark Enchantress Cookie.

…

…

…

Truthless Recluse: 🎵”It’s a takedown I’ma break you down, like you did to my friendship.”🎵

🎵”It’s a takedown, i’ma take you out, just like I did to that evil jester.”🎵

🎵”I’m a cut you open, rip out your heart, just like you did to us all!”🎵

🎵”you’ll be beggin’ and cryin’, for a second chance!”🎵

Everyone: 🎵”I’ma gear up and take you down!”🎵

Soon her friends start tearing her apart,

Insulting her,

Making her feel like she will never change.

Because of which she did to them all.

“You see? No matter how hard you try to better yourself and change. We will never forgive you.” Heavenberry Cookie said to her.

“As your’e a demon.” Architect of Abundance said to her evilly.

“A irredeemable villain.” Dusk of Silence said to her emotionlessly.

“No! Please!” White Lily Cookie tried to deny.

But it’s true…

As no matter how hard she tries…

Her friends will never forgive…

Never, ever…

“You have been since the day you were rebaked as Dark Enchantress Cookie>” Truthless Recluse coldly said to her.

She couldn’t take it anymore…

Her friends being corrupted…

The fact that they will never forgive her, even if she tries…

And the fact that she will always be a villain…

So all she could do now…

Was scream in denial and anger…

“No…”

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

…

…

…

Before eventually the song ends,

And the black void is filled with red pulse of evil energy….

Signifying that the Dark Enchantress Cookie inside of her…

Has awoken…

Welp looks like we’re really screwed now…

…

…

…

…

…

Silent Salt Cookie looked at the beam of evil energy.

Before eventually it finally stopped.

And when it did,

All he saw now,

Was White Lily Cookie crying in despair…

Except this is not White Lily Cookie,

Nor Saint Lily Cookie at all…

Rather she’s now an amalgamation of both herself and Dark Enchantress Cookie.

And it was proven to him as he took another step closer to her.

As he sees that not only was there horns in her hair,

But half of her face is covered by the same evil eye and pale skin as the mistress of evil herself…

Before eventually she stops crying,

And looks at him with tears in her eyes.

Knowing that no matter how hard she tries to better herself,

Her friends will never forgive her for all of the terrible things she’s did…

“You were right. Even though I tried my best to think that maybe, just maybe, they’ll forgive me. Because I want to still be friends with them. They’ll never forgive me. As I’ll always be a villain in their eyes.” Dark Lily Cookie {Which is a name combination of White Lily Cookie and Dark Enchantress Cookie} said sadly.

“I’m so sorry. But at least now you know my pain as well. And that we all can’t change. Because we have patterns of shame inside of us all. And everyone will always view us as a villain. That’s why I want to bring back my people, so that at least I have some cookies who still respect me and love me for who I am.” Silent Salt Cookie said to her,

Trying his best to comfort her while also wiping her tears away.

Before eventually she decided to do the most shocking thing anyone has ever imagined.

Help their own beast counterpart with making their plans a reality…

So she takes out Elder Faerie Cookie’s ring and gives it to him.

Much to the surprise of the Beast of Silence.

As he didn’t expect his Ancient counterpart to give him the same ring he once gave his husband.

“I know this ring belonged to your husband. And I know how much you miss him. But I think it’s time that we show everyone on this Earthbread that silence is more superior then trying to redeem ourselves. Because that’s what they’ll always view us as, an irredeemable monster. So will you please marry me? As I still have a bit of his soul inside of me.” Dark Lily Cookie asked him.

As she got down to her knees and did the same pose as he did,

When he proposed marriage to the king of the faeries.

And remembering that Elder Faerie Cookie still loved him even as a beast,

He accepted…

“Yes I would love to.” Silent Salt Cookie replied to her in a comforting tone of voice.

Before eventually he grabs the ring from her and puts it back on her hand.

As well, she did have the full powers of Elder Faerie Cookie inside of her.

And so after that,

The two of them share a kiss.

Underneath the dazzling moonlight…

A bittersweet one for sure,

But netherless a comforting one.

Showing that even if the Earthbread views them as monster and something to be destroyed,

At least the two of them can share that pain together…

As what’s the point of changing or even redeeming yourselves anyways?

When the whole world still sees you as a villain?

…

Meanwhile outside of the trial room,

Suddenly both Choco-Mosa Cookie and Mysterion Cookie sees not only Pastry Cookie running after High Voltage Cookie,

But they also see the 2 faeries coming flying out of the hole,

And are now panicking…

Why?

Because of the fact that their other father is a beast,

And that there are more patterns spread throughout their entire body,

With it now being on their head.

Luckily the gold Dino-Knight was able to calm them down.

Why?

Well I’ll show you…

“Look, look, look. I get it, it’s not so fun having scars around at first. You wanna know why I feel this way. Well take a look. Power down.” Choco-Mosa Cookie said.

As he said that,

That was when his true identity was revealed…

As behind that winter like costume and brown like dough skin.

It turns out that he is actually from the Dark Cacao Kingdom…

Not only that but it appears that he has the most bloodiest scar imaginable,

On his back…

Much to the shock and horrors of everyone.

“Oh my goodness. Where did you get that?” Mysterion Cookie asked.

To which he explains.

…

…

…

“I got it while protecting my little brother Choco-Token Cookie from a Mountain Lion Attack.”

“It also happened during the time where Dark Cacao Cookie hismelf stopped caring about his citizens ever since the Dark Flour Wars.”

“And that caused me to lose a lot of respect towards him.”

“Until that is when the Pale Plague started, and my little brother unfortunately became infected with it.”

“And that was when I saw that after an adventure filled with apathy, loss and even enlightenment.”

“That was when I gotten back the rest for him.”

“As before I even went to my Dino-Knight training. I saw how much healing the king did with his son.”

“Both their relationship and the scars that have been brought apart them.”

“And that will always makes me happy to see.” Choco-Mosa Cookie happily explained.

And so he explained to the 2 faeries that it’s alright to have these patterns.

As that won’t stop them from being heroes,

And especially themselves.

Which made them all feel better about it.

So after that,

And after learning that Mysterion Cookie’s real name is actually Luckyberry Cookie.

With his voice actually sounding like a 10 year old kid and not a young deep voiced superhero. {Like Batman}

Who was inspired by being saved by Hollyberry Cookie during her Beast-Yeast adventures to go on his own adventure to that place.

They all sail back to Crispia on boat.

So that they can recruit some talented warriors.

In order to stop the wedding.

Which will be happening in a week’s time.

Or in the Catacombs of Silence’s case…

A day…

…

…

…

…

…
