A Light's Blackout - OC x Cookie Run

The Grief...

"HA HA HA HA...! Your petty attempt at resistance was quite an entertaining scene to behold. But my plans for a perfect world remain unchanged..." Dark Enchantress's laughter echoed through the air, a chilling symphony of malice and triumph that sent shivers down the spines of her opponents. Her voice dripped with cruel glee, each word a venomous barb aimed at piercing their already wounded hearts, a stark reminder of their failure to protect their dearest friend. "But do not worry, your scientist shall be kept alive... I could use his mind to further my plans..."

"..." Affogato stood in silence, his usually vibrant spirit cloaked in a shroud of despair too heavy to bear. His shoulders sagged under the weight of his grief, his heart weighed down by the crushing burden of loss. There were no words to express the depth of his sorrow, no solace to be found in the face of such overwhelming despair.

Dark Choco remained silent as well, his mind consumed by memories of Mochaccino's unwavering support and steadfast friendship. He remembered the countless times his dear friend had stood by his side, offering guidance and encouragement in the face of adversity. Now, with Mochaccino gone, his absence left a gaping void in Dark Choco's heart, a wound that throbbed with the pain of irreparable loss.

Dark Cacao's gaze burned with a fierce intensity, his fists clenched in barely restrained fury. His anger simmered just beneath the surface, a tempestuous storm of emotion that threatened to engulf him entirely.

He longed to unleash his wrath upon Dark Enchantress, to avenge Mochaccino's abduction and restore order to their shattered world. But duty called, and he knew that he must set aside his personal vendettas for the greater good.

The Cacaoians stood united in their grief, their spirits battered and broken by the cruel hand fate had dealt them. The future seemed bleak and uncertain, filled with the looming threat of Dark Enchantress's twisted plans and the ominous specter of Mochaccino's fate.

"I shall... your destiny... tower... Beast-Yeast..." Dark Enchantress's voice slithered through the chaos of battle like a serpent in the shadows, her words a chilling prophecy that sent a shiver down the spines of her opponents. Her ominous tone hung in the air like a heavy fog, suffocating the hope of those who dared to defy her.

"Huh? Her voice is getting fainter!" Gingerbrave's voice cut through the din of battle, his confusion mirroring the disorientation of his comrades.

"Quit your yappin'! Cream Wolf! CHARGE!" Crunchy Chip's roar reverberated through the battlefield, his rage a blazing inferno that consumed all reason in its path. Blind to the dangers that lay ahead, he charged forward with reckless abandon, his actions driven by a desperate thirst for vengeance.

"...! ... ..." Dark Enchantress's voice grew increasingly faint, like a fading whisper on the wind, until it was swallowed whole by the cacophony of battle. The sudden silence that followed was deafening, a stark contrast to the chaos that had reigned moments before, leaving an uneasy tension hanging in the air.

"She's gone... Dark Enchantress Cookie wasn't here at all! It was just an illusion!" Gingerbrave's realization pierced through the stillness, his eyes widening in astonishment as the truth dawned on him.

"I did not catch her last words." Wildberry muttered, his voice heavy with a somber undertone, his words a reflection of the collective mood that hung over his Cacaoian allies like a dark cloud. The weight of defeat, sorrow, and simmering wrath pressed down on them all, a heavy burden that threatened to crush their spirits.

"Who cares?! Yap, yap, blah, blah! She mentioned a tower and Beast-Yeast! That's enough information for me! I don't care who I have to go through, what castle I have to take down, or whatever! I'll do anything it takes to bring Mochaccino Cookie back!" Crunchy Chip's declaration sliced through the heavy atmosphere like a blade, his voice trembling with a potent mixture of fury and anguish, his resolve unyielding as he stood firm against the tide of despair. "I refuse to leave anyone behind! I'll tear apart every single one of her minions and find that tower, and bring him home if it's the last thing I do!"
