Dozer looked off to the side. He had just saved another cookie from the oven only to learn that he was his newly baked little brother. He was hella reckless he couldn't even leave him for three seconds.

However the little one understands when there is a perfect and horrible time to do reckless acts. So there they were hiding in a makeshift home. Hoping the witch leaves sometime soon.

"Dozer cookie." GingerBrave piped.

"Yes?" Dozer replied.

"When I crumble... Can you bury me in a flower garden?" GingerBrave asked.

Dozer's eyes widened. He couldn't make promises but... Maybe just this time.

"I'll bury you in the prettiest flower field. Even if I have to grow each and every flower." Dozer said.

The flash back ends. A cookie stood over a grave stone with a watering can. Watering each flower one by one.

".. You are a reckless cookie GingerBrave. Yet I miss you. I miss your little smile. I miss embracing you in my arms. I wish I could go back in time to save you." Dozer said.

"I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I really am sorry.. I should've supported you. I should've helped you. Yet I let you down." Dozer said trying his hardest not to break down and cry.

Although he can't see spirits... He can tell that he is playing in the flower field he planted. And that alone made him smile a bit.

Dozer was never one to let another cookie see him like this. If they did he wouldn't even know what to do.

What he didn't know was... Devil cookie had recorded the entire thing and ran off before Dozer could see them.
