Pure vanilla stopped after reading the note, “no.. it’s too late.. I can never save her..” he curls up into a ball, “I failed.. I failed I failed failed I’m useless I’m a fucking fail—“ then something came into his mind, “if time keeper cookie can go back in time many times.. the why can’t I..! I’ll save you Lily..! I’ll save you from your faith..! Even if it kills me! I don’t care! I promise.”
486 days later.
Pure vanilla sighs, “I’ve done it. I’ve done all my research well my friends went off to fight dark enchantress cookie. Just gotta get the ritual done now. And then. I can save her again!” He gently takes a red marker and draws a big symbol on the floor. “I promise my flower.. I’ll be there for you. I will understand you! I will keep you safe.” He chants something under his breath. The Symbol started to glow. His eyes widen in surprise, “I DID—“
Suddenly he spawned 7 days before the banquet in his room again. “I-I’ve done it! I can save her again! I can do this I must I prom—“
17 try’s later.
Pure vanilla lays in his room, going insane. “I-I NO! I WILL SAVE HER I MUST I MUST I CANT— I JUST CANT LOSE HER AGAIN! I CANT!!!” Pure vanilla screams. Dark blue magic replacing his right eye, the dark magic having 18 eyes, not including his own that was still there. His clothes turned darker, he had corrupted. Corrupted from wanting to save Lily, he broke, just as the other time lines were too.
Lily stops walking as the earth was shaking. “Wh-what—?” She said nervously. Suddenly she felt something or someone swoop her off her feet.. “my lily~ I said I’d protect you..! Now I can~” she stared at his smile, his eyes looking into hers. He flys to what would be their Eiffel Tower. “Vanilla what are you—“ he pins her to the wall and hugs her. “I love you.. I love you so much! Please, let me help you! Let me save you! Let me keep you safe.” He nuzzles his head into her Neck, gently holding her arms down. “Pure vanilla.. what is going on? Why is—“ he puts a finger on her lips, “the timelines are breaking.. I’ve created one just for us two! Where I can keep you safe and you can explore everywhere..! I’m.. I’m from a different time line! Fuck I can’t even remember how much times I’ve gone to try save you! I love you though! With all my heart and soul, everything bone in my body would break if I had to carry it!” Lilys eyes widened. “Y-you.. you’re not.. what.” Something was making her breathe faster than normal. Was it the fact that he was obsessed with her? Or that he was from a different timeline and he wanted to save her so many times he couldn’t even keep count?? “Lily..! Don’t panic my flower!!” He gently put his fingers through her hair and his hand on her neck, “No no it’s ok..! I’m still me..! Just don’t panic I’m here!” Lilys body relaxed. “You love me that much..?” She sighed. Pure vanillas eyes lighted “of course~ no body can love you more than I do..” he leaned forward, his lips nearly against hers “may I..? My queen.” Lily eyes soften and look into his eyes, his eyes staring at her cherry pink lips, “of course..” she gives a warm smile, still frightened from what’s going on. He gently give her a kiss, putting his hand through her hair, “Lily..” he breathlessly says. “I love you.” He leans in for a more passionate kiss, making Lily blush even more. “I love you too..” she smiles, almost forgetting the chaos around her.. “let’s go my dear..” he gently picks her up and flies into the sky, it breaking from all the time lines. They fly into his universe he created for her. “It’s so pretty…” she says her eyes seeing green grass with bright blue skies. “Come catch me if you can!!” He runs playfully waiting for her to come catch him. “HEY WAIT—!” Something stopped white Lily, A pain in her chest, almost like her heart got ripped out. Pure vanilla turned around in horror and ran to her.. “LILY! ARE YOU OK?!” He gently grabs her arms to keep her steady, her head went down and her body dropped. The place went dark in pure vanillas eyes. “NO LILY!” He gently put her on ground and held her. He lifted himself up “LOOK AT ME PLEASE! PLEASE WAKE UP..!” He tried to move her head to look at his, nothing was working. “PLEASE DONT LEAVE ME AGAIN!” He cried as he tried healing her, he knew he can’t get out of this timeline, he programmed it so none of them could. He tried Healing her so hard flowers started growing “DONT GO PLEASE LILY.. I-I” he screamed, Cried, wailed so hard and loud he couldn’t stop. He still held her, forever, he can’t let go. Some say. He’s still crying and holding her to this day.
