- THE DEATH OF A BUTTERFLY-
-|Female! Reader x Elder faerie cookie|-
WARNINGS: Angst, character death.
You felt time stop as you froze up.
You hear Silverbell cookie yell, watching his king collapse and fall to the ground like a rag doll.
The realization hit you, as you came back to reality.
“ELDER FAERIE COOKIE!!!!!”
You instantly rushed to his side, using your bigger frame to hold his body to your chest.
Elder faerie cookie said as he weakly looked up at you. His voice strain and rough.
“ No! Stop talking. Save your breath!”
You practically commanded, using your hand to cover his mouth in a futile attempt to stop the coughing.
“ Y/N Cookie…* cough*…listen…* cough*…to me!”
Elder faerie cookie continued as he weakly pushed away your hand from his mouth.
“ Cough!!” Cough!* I am afraid…*cough*..I do not have much time left…* cough!!*”
His coughing kept getting worse and worse. His body growing weaker by the minute.
“ No! Don’t you dare say that! You must recover! I’ll be lost without you!..Please…I can’t lose you too!!!”
You hollered out in desperation. The tears welling up in your eyes, now pouring uncontrollably down your face.
Elder faerie cookie whispered as he brought his hand to your face and cupped your cheek. His touch still holding the same warmth you always knew, as a rare smile spread across his face.
“ Do not..* cough*…cry..this was my final battle* cough!* and I am honored to have fought it by your side…”
He heaved, forcing his throat to continue on speaking no matter how much it started to hurt.
“ Even after thousands of years… you are still the kind and caring cookie that caught my heart…”
He confessed with a look of pure adoration and love on his pale face that made your heart flutter.
“ Y/N Cookie… I now see the truth that was..in front of me all along…”
He looked up towards the sky with a glimmer of hope in his eyes, his breath growing more rapid and hoarse.
“ Harmony alone will save our world..”
He whispered the quote out like it was a sacred prayer, then his gaze shifted on you again.
“ You are the harmony that will save cookie kind… you will be the one to light our darkest hour…and bring us into a new age of peace and prosperity…”
“ you are not just a cookie.. you are Y/N Cookie!..goddess of Harmony!”
You could feel Elder faerie cookie’s breaths coming even quicker now. His chest barely rising at all as he fought for air, until his chest stilled. He let out a small sigh, before his body went completely limp in your arms. His eyes slowly closing as he finally passed on.
Overwhelmed with emotion, you held onto his body for dear life. With a grip so tight, you’d thought you would crumble his smaller body alone.
You rested your head upon his own. A lump started to grow in your throat as you choked out your final words to him.
