Chapter Text
Harsh breaths and twigs snap as Gingerbrave and co ran fast through the forest away from the hungry cake hounds that chase them “How long are these guys going to chase us for ?!?!” Chilly yelled, carrying an unconscious Custard on her back, all cookies weren't doing so well cuts, bruises, scapes and one of the group was even unconscious, Gingerbrave thought back to the events that had led to this.
After the ginger crew had defeated the choco wherehound brute, whatever his name was, he was not happy, brute after being humiliated he sent all of the cake hound uits after them, while running custard tried to heal everyone but ended up getting knocked out when a cake wolf had pounced on to him, thankfully being saved by Strawberry and Chilly, everyone resuming their hopeful escape.
But the group were getting tired and couldn't run much longer and had to stop, the group was surrounded by beautiful pale lilies. Wizard and Strawberry were leaning against a rock, Chili pepper was knelt on the ground Custard held close to her While Brave rested against the stalk of one of the enormous flowers. “Ok, we still have cakehounds on our tails and we’re all out of energy, what do we do ?” Wizard asked, trying to catch his breath, Gingerbrave didn't know, he didn't know what to do, everyone was tired and injured and the cake hound army was right behind them. Everyone’s attention was quickly drawn away when the cake beast chasing them had finally caught up surrounding the defenseless cookies, this to be their last moments.
A cake hog charged at strawberry, her lollipop weakly ready to smack it away and a cake wolf lunged at chili pepper who held custard close to her ready to protect the kid from the beast, only for something else to come charging from the flowers knocking the beasts away, two cookies stood before the group with a cookie on the left and on the right.
The cookie on the left had a dark berry cake hound barking at the other cake beasts by his feet, the cookie held a claymore like sword with dark accents, the unknown cookie had thin armored boots and a worn chestplate a white long sleeve under shirt covered his arms, the cookie had a crooked head piece covered by short wild blond hair, a blue scarf wrapped around his neck flowing violently from how fast the cookie had run to defend.
The second cookie the one on the right was holding a long sword with a blue gem resting in the center of the hilt, the cookie wore a white shirt with a black sash around his waist this was obscured by a simple dark cloak that hung to about the cookies waist, the cookie had black hair with white streaks, the unknown cookies dark armored boots dug into the ground, the cookies stans ready to attack.
The blackcurrant cake hound turned around giving the injured cookies a reassuring bark, tongue out and tail wagging “Keep em’ covered Bella, we don't want any casualties…” The cookie who seemed to own the hound spoke his voice low and angry. “You guys ok ?” The second spoke, turning his head to see the group revealing kind ruby eyes riddled with concern “Oi, mystery, stay focused kinda need you in the moment .'' The still unnamed cookie said his friend, Mystery turned back around just in time to knock back a cake beast. “Close your eyes kids, it's about to get messy !” the still unknown cookie said, raising his sword to ready position.
The group did as told and closed their eyes and ducked their heads, yelps yowls and all sorts of noises were motivation for the group to not look. “That's right, you better run!” The still unknown cookie yelled, sticking his sword back into its hilt “Hey, it's all good now, you can open your eyes .” Mystery cookie said his voice was kind and considered.
The group had opened up their eyes slowly, the cookies that had protected had turned to face them, Mystery cookie wore a kind smile, while the unnamed cookie wore a blank expression “Yeah we're ok, thank you.” strawberry thanked until being passed custard and shoved behind chilly pepper “Thanks for the save, but who exactly are you guys?” Chilly questioned not trusting the two randos that had appeared out of nowhere “Ah my apologies, Im mystery cookie and this is my friend Blacurrent Madeleine cookie.” Mystery cookie motioned to the cookie to his left. “It's nice to meet you guys, and thank you for saving us!” Gingerbrave thanked “No problem, but you kids have got to be more careful. Cake beasts are no joke, they're pretty dangerous.” Blacurrent Madeleine said the dark berry cake hound bouncing around by his feet “Are you sure?” Chilly pointed out Blacurrent tensed up a bit unsure of how to deal with the accusation “...Bella doesn't count.” Blackcurrant quickly picked up Bella, turning around and walking towards the flowers “Why don't you come with us, we know a good healer she can definitely patch you guys up.” Mystery smiled, “Mystery, please don't bring them with us .” Blacurrent Madeleine groned “Blacurrent Madeleine these kids are injured! They need medical help !” Mystery said, crossing his arms “They are coming with us.” Mystery was met with a groan and a begrudging ‘FINE’ “If you don't mind me asking sir mystery, but where are you exactly taking us?” Wizard cookie asked a little concerned “To see a friend of ours, White Lily cookie.”
