Work Text:
At their very secretive Laboratorium, 3/12
Dark Enchantress Cookie wished to have spies in the Creme Republic.
"Pomegranate Cookie?"
"I need intel on the Creme Republic. And by that I only mean to say "spies"."
Obviously, Pomegranate Cookie immediately called everyone, including the Beasts for their plan.
"Okay everyone, Dark Enchantress Cookie requests some spies at the Creme Republic. What can we possibly do?" She said.
"Oh, I know! I know! I'm a shapeshifter! I know how to take people's places! Ill be Financier Cookie! Or maybe even the Consul!" Shadow Milk Cookie said, wanting to participate so bad.
"Well... Okay. Sure. But that's vague, please be specific about your plans." Pomegranate Cookie responded.
"Okay, uhh..." Shadow Milk Cookie is trying to think.
Suddenly, a dark light appeared in their planning room. This was none other than Dark Enchantress Cookie.
"Kinda cliche, too generic." Dark Enchantress Cookie responded.
"Our Great Dark Enchantress Cookie objects." Pomegranate Cookie said.
"Awww... What about Eternal Sugar? They don't know her yet." Shadow Milk Cookie asked.
Finally, perhaps an actually viable spy. She doesn't look at all too threatening...
Unfortunately for them, she was sleeping. So she wouldn't know about any of this.
"Why the hell-"
"I will cast a spell to wake her up." Pomegranate Cookie said.
"No, no, no. The bodies I created weren't imbued with power. It comes from their corrupted Soul Jam. In any case that the Beasts get angry on us, we do not know the power they hold."
Dark Enchantress Cookie, afraid? Even the Beasts themselves did not expect that. But then, the planning goes on.
Pomegranate Cookie speaks again, "Since Burning Spice Cookie probably won't be the best in this task-"
"HMPH!" He didn't like that.
"Do you have a plan?" Pomegranate Cookie asked, trying to one up him.
"UHHHH....
UHHHHHHHHHHH.
no, actually. BUT WHEN IT GETS TO THE DESTROYING PART, COUNT ME AND SILENT SALT IN!" He responded.
"Haha. Okay...
What about Mystic Flour Cookie?" Pomegranate Cookie asked.
"Desires such as these will only destroy us more. There is no purpose." Mystic Flour Cookie responded.
"Man, your philosophy is just so trash you know. Every contemporary philosopher would hate you." Shadow Milk Cookie rebutted.
"Apathy is to not give a shit." She responded back.
Everyone was shocked.
"I never knew that you cussed. Anyways, this isn't your philosophy nerd book session. In the words of the kids, what they say was uhh... Lock in." Dark Enchantress Cookie tried to stop their drama... This happens everytime.
"Anyways, is anyone useful actually willing to be a spy? I NEED intel!" Dark Enchantress Cookie was getting angry. Before anyone noticed, Pomegranate Cookie seemed to return from somewhere. And she brought... Moonlight Cookie?! And she's also wearing a white long sleeve with black pants rather than her typical dress.
"Why did you bring her here? I'm impressed, but WHY?" She needed answers.
"I... Disguised Agar Agar Cookie. Since you know, she can replicate their powers..." Pomegranate Cookie responded.
"I'm assuming that this new silver staff with a mirror is her actual mirror." Dark Enchantress Cookie said.
"Yes."
"Okay... It's genuinely quite impressive. Some problems are... How would the magic keep up?" Dark Enchantress Cookie asked.
"She has a necklace which allows it to remain." She responded.
"Very good... The only other thing is that her clothes are oversized. But I'd assume that it must be the new 'trend' now." Dark Enchantress Cookie said.
"Dear, can you speak? Try your best disguise." She asked Agar Agar Cookie.
"Yes. Dreaming... Will bring... Comfort." Agar Agar Cookie responded.
"Okay, Moonlight Cookie would say something like that, the only issue is your tone.
But I'd assume that you can't quite control it yet, so you pass, my dear." Dark Enchantress Cookie said.
"This is good enough... But does anyone have any other ideas for her?" Dark Enchantress Cookie asked the others.
"Oh! Oh! There's a new wedding planner in town. Maybe Schwarzwalder can be her groom!" Shadow Milk Cookie said.
The room fell silent. It turns out that our Moonlight was crying. Her tears were dripping agar. While she was crying, Pomegranate Cookie went to her.
"Why are you crying?" She asked.
"No... No no... Do not want." Agar Agar Cookie responded. She's like a kid who just got their candy taken away... Well, maybe because she IS a kid.
It would be very obvious even to the unironic flat earther, or an octopus in a human body, that she did not want to do that fake marriage. First of all, she was a kid. Second, she's already having a hard time disguising, and trying to speak coherently. But today, Shadow Milk Cookie decided to be an asshole.
"Oh come on? Do not want? Do not want what? Come on... You'll be so beautiful at that marriage, EVERYONE will love you-" He said...
Suddenly, he was thrown to the wall, and no one had time to react... No one must've seen it. Who might have caused it? Was Pure Vanilla Cookie suddenly back and more aggressive? Was Dark Cacao Cookie there this whole time? Well, both answers are wrong. In the smoke, seen was Silent Salt Cookie... They were about to stab Shadow Milk Cookie.
"DO YOU THINK YOU'RE FUNNY?
SHUT THE FUCK UP.
YOU'RE MESSING WITH A KID. A FUCKING KID!" They said. They had selective mutism ever since their descent.
What was their voice like? Well, if there was someone in a mask with long hair, what would you assume? That's right, they were a woman all along... Who would've thought that the menacing Champion of Silence, Silent Salt Cookie, was a woman all along?
Suddenly, drops of salt were seen leaking from their helmet. Once the others saw it, they were gone. At the place where it happened, there is nothing but... Ash.
"Go girl, slay! You ate that up-
I mean... What a tragic experience, or something... I'll bake a new body for Shadow Milk Cookie soon." Dark Enchantress Cookie said. Pomegranate Cookie meanwhile, was just smirking.
"Uhh... Let me do that plan of his, but with Schwarzwalder as the bride." Licorice Cookie whispered to her. He didn't want to see Agar Agar Cookie crying.
"Ooh! Sure." Dark Enchantress Cookie responded.
"Pomegranate Cookie, take off that necklace from her. Please." Dark Enchantress Cookie ordered calmly.
"Okay..." She responded.
"Dear, do you want to take the necklace off?" Pomegranate Cookie asked.
Agar Agar Cookie looked at her mirror to see her form. She was still sniffling, but she tried her best for the drops to not stain her mirror.
"No... I- I look... Pretty..." She responded.
"Very well. Licorice Cookie, Schwarzwalder, proceed with the plan." Dark Enchantress Cookie ordered.
"Yes, Dark Enchantress Cookie!" They both said.
At Wedding Cake Cookie's Building, 3/13
Anxious, Licorice Cookie knocked on the door.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" He said with nervousness.
Wedding Cake Cookie opened the door.
"Oh! A couple? Sure! Come in." She said enthusiastically.
They came inside, as she said.
"Ummm... I am... Cute Cake Wereound!" Schwarzwalder said in the highest voice possible.
"And I am... Uhh, Sweet Licorice Cookie!" Licorice Cookie said.
"Oh, the femme is wearing their gown so early!
I am sorry for asking this, but may we know the genders and pronouns of both parties? It is required." Wedding Cake Cookie requested.
"Oh! Okay, uhh... I am a cis male, he/him, and Cute Cake Werehound is a transfeminine man, she/he/they." Licorice Cookie said.
"Oh! I've never had a gay couple since a year... It must be because of the Diocese of Oyster..." Wedding Cake Cookie said, with visible sadness...
One thought came to Licorice Cookie's mind: "I'm glad there's still tolerant people in this world..." Even evil people had limits, he was also sad due to the persecution of queer people in the republic.
"Sorry, we're foreigners to this land. Of what... Church?" Schwarzwalder said.
"Oh! In this part of the Creme Republic, the religious group with the most influence isn't the St. Pastry Order. It's the Army of The Moonlight of All Cookies. Unfortunately, they're not the best..." Wedding Cake Cookie responded in dismay...
Licorice Cookie spoke, "They must not know that Moonlight Cookie is-"
"Is gay! Yeah. They think that the Sea was a man...
But anyways, when shall the wedding begin?" Wedding Cake Cookie, although genuinely happy that someone finally wasn't a bigot, had to rush it. They were about to close.
"Oh, we got carried off. Next week today! At 3:00 pm." Licorice Cookie said.
"Wow! You must be wanting to build up anticipation. After that, what should be the plants and decorations?" Wedding Cake Cookie asked.
"Uhh. Red lilies, and bread leaves! But more bread leaves, we want our guests to eat well." Schwarzwalder said.
"Red lilies, symbolizing love and passion, and bread leaves, symbolizing work and simplicity! Not gonna lie, this is the first time I've seen the combo." Wedding Cake Cookie said in genuine enthusiasm.
"That's great! Uhh, we'll deal with the music and invites. Here's twice your fee, consider it a tip as well." Licorice Cookie was about to leave with Schwarzwalder.
"Okay! A tip? Really? I'm... I'm seriously delighted! See you next week!" Wedding Cookie said to the couple before they left.
One Day Later, 3/14
Suddenly, Wedding Cake Cookie's place was closed. For what? Apparently, they have been part of a laundering scheme... With a servant of Dark Enchantress Cookie?
Since that was so scandalous of a case, the literal CONVOCATION OF ELDERS had to be in the scene.
"You dirty criminal immigrant taking all of our jobs! I'll have you arrested!" The elder Custard Cookie shouted.
She was suddenly swatted by the Republic's Paladins, included Financier... If Clotted Cream Cookie was here, he would be enraged... Yet... The Paladins looked sad.
"You're- You're under arrest..." Financier Cookie said with haste. For some reason, Financier Cookie did not bind her whatsoever, and she was only escorted.
Wedding Cake Cookie was brought outside, with various journalists recording the scene.
"YOU SALTY-DOUGHED COOKIE, COMPLICIT IN THE VICE OF SODOMY! AS THE BISHOP OF OYSTER, YOU SHALL BE ARRESTED FOR BOTH CRIMES!" Custard Cookie was heard shouting from afar.
Clotted Cream Cookie suddenly rushed to all the cameras.
"Stop recording. This is a terrible trial, and will be solved immediately." He said to the cameras, and after that, the journalists ran in fear.
"This already violates the Lemon Test... Good thing that was recorded. I'll invite Pure Vanilla Cookie as a lay judge. Please reach out to him, the trial will start at his arrival." Clotted Cream Cookie told Financier Cookie before Wedding Cake Cookie was escorted to the wagon.
When Clotted Cream Cookie went back to his office, he already saw Pure Vanilla Cookie by the door. He has a new costume now, from almost defeating Shadow Milk Cookie. How elegant.
"Honorable Consul! I was informed of the trial. Let us please give her justice as soon as possible." He said.
"Oh! I didn't know you received my message so fast... Okay, let us proceed."
At The Trial
Judges:
The Consul, The Young Elder, Clotted Cream Cookie
The Compassionate, Light Of Truth, Pure Vanilla Cookie
Defense Attorneys:
Defensor de Obreros, Revolucionario dela Mares, Captain Caviar Cookie
Prosecutors:
Founder of House Custard, Bishop of Oyster, Custard Cookie I
Defendants:
Wedding Cake Cookie
Witnesses:
Financier Cookie
The Trial Begins!
There was much talking before the trial. It was mostly about Custard Cookie.
Clotted Cream Cookie striked the gavel.
"Quiet please. Let us start this peculiar trial." He said.
"The prosecutor may now state his case." He ordered.
"OKAY!
THE- THE DEFENDANT, WEDDING CAKE COOKIE, IS GUILTY OF BEING COMPLICIT WITH SODOMY!
If she was complicit of sodomy, an act against the witches, why would she NOT launder money? Sodomy is against the local laws of Oyster City!" Custard Cookie said.
Every Cookie in Jury Duty just so conveniently happened to be a member of his cult. "ARREST HER!" they say. Clotted Cream Cookie had to strike the gavel again.
"All laws violating the constitutional Lemon Test are void, latae sentientae. Those laws cannot apply, and they cannot be declared for the sake of subsidiarity, for we in fact do not follow a Panarchist model of government. In fact, this trial should be void as well, but you somehow managed to find a loophole. You gave absolutely zero proof against her, more about you, DAD. Anyways, because what he spoke has absolutely no bearing on the case, the defendant may now speak." Clotted Cream Cookie said, almost getting too angry, perhaps at his dad...
"Really? Okay. I bring my witness, Financier Cookie to the trial." Captain Caviar Cookie said.
"I have a video of the true criminals here, who are currently incarcerated admitting of their crime. I request our honorable Consul to broadcast it through the laptop have lended him." Financier Cookie said.
"Okay." Clotted Cream Cookie was already calm... Was it because this trial was gonna end, or perhaps something about her? In the words of our prophet Will Wood, you will never know! For now, that is...
The laptop's video shows Licorice and Schwarzwalder, like what Financier Cookie said, admit all of their plans while outside. Falsely setting up someone of a crime... This is egregious!
"The Light of Truth affirms the reality of the video. Her case is not beyond reasonable doubt. I humbly request for our Consul to acquit the humble worker." Pure Vanilla Cookie said calmly.
Clotted Cream Cookie would've said, that - "I pronounce our-"
But unfortunately, the Jury Duty wanted one more piece of evidence.
"Okay... Fine. Captain Caviar Cookie, please show us the bank logs." Clotted Cream Cookie asked, trying not to lose his temper.
Also about to lose his sanity, Captain Caviar Cookie read the bank logs as calm and slow as he can.
Clotted Cream Cookie would've ended the case by now, but after that, Custard Cookie shouted:
"HOW DID HE KNOW THAT THERE WERE BANK LOGS? THIS MUST BE A LIBERAL MARXIST CONSPIRACY!"
The jury duty became even louder, and this time, Clotted Cream Cookie almost broke the gavel.
"BECAUSE IT WAS IN THE CASE FILE!" Clotted Cream Cookie screamed.
Almost immediately, Pure Vanilla Cookie followed with the final proclamation.
"I hereby declare our defendant, Wedding Cake Cookie, not guilty!"
"Thank you. Thank you." Clotted Cream Cookie said.
The trial has finally ended. Custard Cookie is being escorted by the guards, while he was shouting at Captain Caviar Cookie... Like a kid.
"YOU'LL GO TO HELL! YOU'RE A SOCIALIST, A COMMUNIST, A BOOTLICKER OF THE POOR, A REVOLUTIONARY, AN IMMIGRANT, AND FINALLY... A SALT-DOUGH COOKIE!"
"I'LL TAKE YOU WITH ME, BITCH!"
Amidst this chaos, the two judges were talking.
"Tell me anytime if you need my Soul Jam." Pure Vanilla Cookie said.
"I have surrendered on that task." Clotted Cream Cookie responded.
"It has been an honor to have you here." He added.
"Thank you, Consul." Pure Vanilla Cookie responded.
While Pure Vanilla Cookie left, he overheard something amongst Clotted Cream Cookie and someone else.
"If she wants, my beautifully noble guard Financier Cookie can give me... Special alleviation from the mental harm that this trial has caused me." Clotted Cream Cookie said, hinting at something.
"For that, I'm always at your service." Financier Cookie said, but in a tone that was very scandalous.
While Pure Vanilla Cookie was leaving the court, there was obviously a flood of journalists. They were asking one thing: What happened?
"I cannot disclose anything else, but our defendant is not guilty." He told the cameras.
Custard Cookie was still there in the distance. What the hell? Shouldn't he be escorted outside at this point? In retrospect, he did see him on the way out.
He barged through the cameras.
"Hey, you heard THAT thing my son said, didn't you?!" He asked while grabbing Pure Vanilla Cookie by his coat.
"I am obligated by the Light of Truth to tell you yes. But it also tells me that it isn't any of your business." Pure Vanilla Cookie responded.
He was silenced. He felt the Light of Truth actually telling him that, it seems.
After the Trial, at Wedding Cake Cookie's Place, 3/15
Someone knocked. After she opened it, it was none other than Captain Caviar Cookie.
"Oh! Captain Caviar Cookie! What brings you here? I wanted to say... Thank you for being my defense attorney, Captain.
Here's the 20 thousand gems they paid... You might need it." She said.
"Oh nay, I don't need it! Keep it, they shan't be getting their gems back.
I was here to tell you something." Captain Caviar Cookie said.
"What is it, Captain?" Wedding Cake Cookie asked.
"Since Custard Cookie became a cleric, he shouldn't be anywhere in the government! It's in our constitution. Now we have a legitimate reason to end his rule. I am discussing this with the Consul." Captain Caviar Cookie responded.
"I'll tell ya. He was an arse long before! In the days of old, when we were quite younger, there was a civil war. Something he caused. And he blamed our current Consul for it!" He added.
"Anyways, I gotta leave. Be safe." He said before leaving.
"Bye, and thank you again!" She responded.
One Day Later, 3/16
There was a new customer. An old friend, Black Forest Cookie. No one knows what happened to her after she joined the St. Pastry Order...
She knocked on the door, and Wedding Cake Cookie answered.
"Come on in, man! You're so lucky! A client just canceled their reservation, for... Certain reasons..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"I was thinking of resting...
But who cares about rest, right?
My heart stopped when I saw you!" She added.
"Oh... Is that so? That's very good...." Black Forest Cookie responded.
"This wedding... Is for Them!" Black Forest Cookie added.
"Ooh, them! I wonder who they are... You must love them a lot!" Wedding Cake Cookie responded.
Suddenly, Black Forest Cookie bent her neck. It sounded like it cracked... She must not have liked something Wedding Cake Cookie said..
"They're not just nobody... They... Are our Creators! Our Creators, They give us flavor, They gave us everything.... Hahaha.... Our fate... Is to be eaten... Which is- Which is what will happen to me in the wedding! You better not speak so low of them again... Or I'll do something to you to help you realize their worth!" She told Wedding Cake Cookie. With each sentence, she sounded more manic.
"Uhh... Are you okay?
Damn... The St. Pastry Order really IS a cult... Some weird vore fetish cult, are you realizing what you're saying right now?
Please... You must get out of-" She was interrupted.
Suddenly, Wedding Cake Cookie heard chants... Chants from nowhere... It was in an incomprehensible language. Black Forest Cookie had a red aura around her. She started praying.
"In the name of the Witches... I am ready, dough and soul."
"I am ready, dough and soul!
O heavenly Witches,
May the faith you have imbued me,
Be realized also in her!"
The two women held hands, Black Forest Cookie forcing her to. The chanting got stronger.
"May she be free of all worldly concerns,
May she realize the one true faith,
The one true faith in the Witches,
Our godly creators,
May she embrace our fate to be eaten,
May she not end up like the apostate Enchantress,
And embrace her fate!"
"In the name of the Witches, the Wizards, and the Holy Firsts! Amen."
Once Black Forest Cookie ended the prayer, or ritual, the chanting stopped and all went to normal. So it seems in the material world, that is...
"W-what did you do?" Wedding Cake Cookie asked anxiously.
"You'll realize that our fate is to be eaten... Some time... Soon... I will come back tommorow... The day where it will take place..." Black Forest Cookie answered.
"Uhh, okay..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
Yet Another Day Later, 3/17
Wedding Cake Cookie woke up way earlier than usual. She didn't mind at all.
"Let's see if there are any new clients for the year..." She said.
Checking her phone, she found ten clients... But checking her messages, she actually... Rejected all of them? How? She didn't check her phone ever since that last encounter with her old friend.
"I don't type like this..." She said.
"Black Forest Cookie must've messed with my phone. Fine, I'll play with her for a bit... Her situation is just sad..." She added.
She waited for Black Forest Cookie's knock. For some reason, she seems so enthusiastic now to begin the wedding.
Finally, there was a knock. It was obviously Black Forest Cookie.
"Hey! I've been waiting for you. Yes... Come in... Yes..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
Black Forest Cookie went into her place.
"Hehe... Do you feel different?" Black Forest Cookie asked.
"Enlightened..." Wedding Cake Cookie responded.
"Hehe... Yes... The prayer worked! Yes yes yes! I thank Them!" Black Forest Cookie said.
"Indeed. I have realized Their worth. Now, what time should the wedding begin?" Wedding Cake Cookie asked.
"Midnight... In the darkness..." Black Forest Cookie responded.
"But of course... They baked us at midnight..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Y-y-y-you're catching on so fast! Now... I want- I want for the decorations... Black roses accentuated by jam-red cherries." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Black roses... A true symbol of love... Losing our physical Cookie bodies for our final purpose - to be eaten... By Them! With the jam-red cherries symbolizing the jam inside of us... The sacred jam that gives us life..." Wedding Cake Cookie told her.
It seems that she's quite steadfast in pretending that the prayer worked... To protect her innocence, or something else? Perhaps she is only attempting to sympathize.
"Oh my oh my.... Your devotion..." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Yes... My devotion to Them... To Them..." Wedding Cake Cookie added.
"But... I'm sorry... I cannot think of much ideas... May I take a walk? You could... Join if you want." She said.
"No problem... I will stay..." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Alright." Wedding Cake Cookie answered.
After leaving, she went to the Plaza where most cookies were in.
"Ugh... I can't think of any other wedding ideas..." Wedding Cake Cookie said anxiously.
A kid suddenly approached her. It was Custard Cookie III, the informal ceremonial "monarch" of the Cookie Kingdom.
"Oh no! What might bring trouble to my subject?" He said, pretending to be noble.
"Haha... Thank you, your Majesty..." She said.
"What would we do without him, right? Well, if you want a cup of Cocoa, just tell me!" Cocoa Cookie said, trying to help.
"No thank you..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"The thing is... I genuinely can't think of any wedding ideas for my client. The decorations she chose aren't quite good as well." She said.
"Well, uhm... Go back to your roots! Where did your job come from?" Custard Cookie III told her.
"My roots?" She asked rhetorically.
"Wait...
My dream to be a Wedding Planner came from me reading a newspaper! A newspaper, about the royal Hollyberry Kingdom's wedding! It was the most vibrant wedding, with the most vivacious energy that I have ever seen!" She said.
"I remember that too... It was the best wedding ever! Besides my wedding, of course." Cocoa Cookie said.
"Oh my! Thank you, Your Majesty! Your words ACTUALLY sparked an inspiration in me!" Wedding Cake Cookie told Custard Cookie III.
"Really? I'm so delighted-
Ehem. I mean... A great king can solve any problem... As my heraldry from the Light of Truth..." He said.
"Haha... I'm not joking though. Thanks!" Wedding Cake Cookie said, running back to her place.
"HEEYYYY! MY HUSBAND TOLD ME THAT HE MIGHT WANT TO PERFORM AT THE WEDDING! ASK YOUR CLIENT!" Cocoa Cookie shouted enthusiastically.
"Thank you for all of your help! I'll be inviting you!" Wedding Cake Cookie said back.
Now at her place (it only took like ten minutes), she happily greeted Black Forest Cookie.
"Black Forest Cookie! I finally have an idea! I'll be handling the rest, I got inspired by a certain wedding!" Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Uhm... I suggest that everyone we invite wears dark robes. Is that okay with you? I think it just matches the atmosphere!" She asked.
"Yesss... Yes... It fits the scheme." Black Forest Cookie responded.
"I am thinking of also adding in some violin for the music. While you and your betrothed are walking through the altar, someone will be playing Vivaldi's Spring in half time! A very famous piece, matching the reverence of the wedding." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"No... No music... Only an oath... The guests shall join me in chanting.." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Oh! A sacred oath of love! I wonder what it is you're thinking..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Ohoho... Its very simple... The guests will chant 'Embrace your fate' three times." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Oh! Yeah, fate... For Them, yes? Uhh... Yeah! Very well, very good." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Really? I'm glad you think so...
I am so excited... I can barely keep myself waiting...
I am so elated! Every second that passes, the suspense gets more and more intense!" Black Forest Cookie said.
"Not gonna lie, your wedding was pretty hard to plan... I'm glad to be challenged as such!
How you're so happy... Even when you don't show it, I notice how excited you are! And since you're happy, that makes me so happy as well!" Wedding Cake Cookie told her. This wasn't just any flattery. She was seriously happy, not just for her, but because of her... Yet she doesn't know why.
"T-thank you... See you at the ritual... For Them.... For Them..!" Black Forest Cookie said before leaving.
The Rehearsal - At Midnight
"Okay everyone! This is the rehearsal. Get your robes." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Wow... These robes are... Interesting. So are these flowers, I've never seen them before..." Herb Cookie said before wearing his robe.
"Yeah. It's strange, but after all... It's her decision." Mint Choco Cookie said before wearing his.
"Yeah." Cocoa Cookie said before wearing her robes.
"This is so weird... But, This could be a disguise for stealing treasures! HAHAHA!" Chili Pepper Cookie said before wearing her robes.
"This makes me look more royal!" Custard Cookie III said before wearing his robes.
"AHAHAHA! THOSE PALADINS WOULDN'T SPOT ME WITH THESE!" Twizzly Gummy Cookie said before wearing hers.
"These robes remind me of..." Pure Vanilla Cookie got some flashbacks...
"Nevermind. I should just get on with these." He said before wearing his.
"Okay everyone! Now don't forget, you'll chant these three times! You'll chant Embrace Your Fate, three times. Let's do it together! Remember, this is a very solemn wedding." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
When they were chanting, some of them were shouting, laughing, and such. Obviously, Wedding Cake Cookie didn't want the wedding to be ruined.
"Okay, so the oaths we fixed... We already have Herb, Pure Vanilla, Clover, Mint Choco, and Cocoa! Alright." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Your Majesty, can you please try your oath again?" Wedding Cake Cookie asked Custard Cookie III.
"Okay.
EMBRACE YOUR FATE! EMBRACE YOUR FATE! EMBRACE YOUR FATE!" He said.
"No, no, no... It must be slow and steady, and no shouting. It's very solemn for her." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"You guys are mostly doing well! Cocoa Cookie, just do it a little slower, and you're good." She added.
"HAHA! EMBRACE YOUR FATE, EMBRACE YOUR FATE, EMBRACE YOUR FATE!" Chili Pepper Cookie said.
"Hold in the laugh. Also, a little softer and slower, please!" Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"Huhu... They're putting all of their effort into this rehearsal already... The Creators shall be pleased..." Black Forest Cookie said.
"Wow! Everyone is doing their best... The two must have been so dedicated." Mint Choco Cookie said.
At the St. Pastry Monastery
"Black Forest Cookie has good faith... Very much so... But I'm afraid this wedding will be very scandalous... I order you to get her back..." Reverend Mother Cookie told a certain cookie.
"But... She got the power of the heretics! How can she be-" She, that certain cookie, was interrupted.
"Do I see doubt in your heart?" Reverend Mother Cookie said.
"No... I- I am sorry. I overstepped out of fear!" She said.
"Her faith is absolute. No shadow can tempt her. She has only been cursed out of unfortunate circumstance.
Those who are lacking in faith meanwhile, may struggle in accepting her new form." Reverend Mother Cookie said.
"For your information, her powers are a blessing from the creators themselves!
Yet, we cannot let her reveal the existence of our order..." Reverend Mother Cookie added.
"Okay! I will try to retrieve her again, Reverend Mother!" She, the other cookie said.
When she left, Reverend Mother said something...
"When her faith reaches it's zenith, she transforms into the Cake Bride.
I am afraid that this transformation will happen in the wedding.
Such temptation... Although her faith is absolute, still gets her..."
At the beginning of the Wedding
"Now... Here comes the Bride!" Wedding Cake Cookie said with great joy.
Suddenly, the lights were turned off.
"Who turned off the lights?!" Chili Pepper Cookie said.
"I don't know..." Herb Cookie responded.
The lights were turned back on, and the bride was gone.
"Oh no! Where's the bride!" Wedding Cake Cookie said.
Financier Cookie suddenly appeared.
"A member of a Legitimist terrorist group intended to take a Cookie from here. I cannot outline the specifics, but I am trying to catch the suspect." She said.
"Oh... Is that so?" Wedding Cake Cookie said.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, with a monster and someone in a black mask trying to make it go away.
"YOU!" Financier Cookie shouted.
"BLACK FOREST COOKIE! I KNOW THAT'S YOU!" Wedding Cake Cookie shouted.
"YES... YES... I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER.... I NOW FEEL THE TOUCH OF THEIR PRESENCE..." Black Forest Cookie said, as the Cake Bride.
"Stop! We can't expose oursleves to normal people!" The black-masked cookie said.
"I COULDN'T FEEL BETTER, I FEEL THEM NOW!" The Cake Bride said.
"Get behind me!" Financier Cookie said, about to target the other Cookie in a mask.
Wedding Cake Cookie rushes in.
"WAIT!"
"I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY TO THE BRIDE!"
(As the most significant lines ever, I just have to keep them unaltered.)
"You're the most passionate bride I've met in my career!
Whoever they are, they're lucky to have you!"
"... WEDDING CAKE COOKIE!
THANK YOU, FOR EVERYTHING.
I'VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE, PLANNING
THIS PERFECT WEDDING WITH YOU!
I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE...
BUT I WILL RETURN, ONE DAY...!"
"Then take your bouquet with you!"
"WEDDING CAKE COOKIE...!"
"Go! I wish you nothing but happiness!"
"Come on! We have to go!" The masked cookie said.
"I WON'T LET YOU ESCAPE!" Financier Cookie shouted.
Silence filled the parish.
"Do we have to clean this up too?" Custard Cookie III said.
"I.... No." Wedding Cake Cookie responded.
3/18, at Wedding Cake Cookie's place
Someone actually used the doorbell this time.
"Oh, you're busy as usual I see! I just wanted to tell you that the previous couple that canceled their reservation got back together!" Cocoa Cookie told her.
"Yeah, I heard! We can call it... Fate..." Wedding Cake Cookie said.
"You look so excited? Planning weddings does make you very happy, huh?" Cocoa Cookie asked.
"Yeah!
Nothing brings me more joy than seeing brides smile..."
"I wish that every bride and groom on Earthbread happiness... And I wish Black Forest Cookie blessings in her journey."
"Yet for some reason... I miss her..."
