Meet Sakura, she's a normal girl who loves helping her uncle Pigsy at his restaurant, loves learning legends and myths from her uncle Tang and loves drinking tea while playing with the cats with uncle Sandy. Sakura also has her two best friends from...
"That is exactly what I need! The powder that Jin spilled was actually red sugar!" I said and gave MK the bamboo steamers and time was up
"And that's the timer! Both competitors must now present their culinary creations to our panel of judges. Introducing our first judge Princess Iron Fan!" The MC said as Princess Iron Fan took a seat
"Princess Iron Fan, it's nice seeing you again" I said with a bow
"Hello, daughter in law. I didn't know you'll be competing. Now I'm looking forward to whatever dessert you made" Princess Iron Fan said and I couldn't help but smile
"Judge number 2 is none other than Red Son! The son of the Demon Bull King and Princess Iron Fan!" The MC said as Red Son used his flames to teleport to his seat
"Hey, Red Son! You're a judge too? Wow!" I said sounding excited
"C-Cherry Blossom?! You're the competing?!" Red Son asked and I nodded "I get to... taste my wife's sweets" Red Son did a funny look on his face
"Hey! Sakura is not gonna be your wife!" MK said looking at angry, and the two were having a glare off with each other
"Can you guys to this after the competition?" I asked and they stopped glaring
"And judge number 3 and an apparently a fan favorite, this guy!" The light revealed Uncle Tang
"Thanks for having me! Great to be here!" Uncle Tang said looking excited
"First off is Speedy Panda and what looks like... uh... some type of black soup?" The MC sounded confused
"It's actually called Black Sesame Soup" Jin said
"We added the sesame seeds from this packet' Yin said as he tossed the wrapper away
"I'll take your word for it" Princess Iron Fan as she pushed away the dish
Red Son didn't even bother looking at it, and Uncle Tang being a foodie decided to taste it. But then later regrets trying it as vomits in a nearby trash can
"Next up is Pigsy's Noodles sweets maker, Sakura! Her sweets is to be..."

"Red Bean Buns! These were my first set of sweets that I made as a child" I said as I placed the bamboo steamers in front of the judges and now, I wait for the result. Princess Iron Fan took a bite of the bun, her eyes widen, and she looked like she enjoyed it
"It pains me to do this, but sadly my vote goes to Speedy Panda" Princess Iron Fan said with a sad look. MK and Uncle Pigsy looked surprised at her decision while Jin and Yin high-fived. Next, Red Son took a bite of the bun and like his mother, his eyes widen and enjoyed the flavor of the bun
"This is the most delicious bun I ever had! Cherry Blossom you never cease to amaze me! My vote goes to Pigsy's Noodles!" Red Son said as he voted for Uncle Pigsy's shop. MK and Uncle Pigsy cheered, and I noticed the 2 demons glaring at me, making me jump. Finally, it was Uncle Tang's turn, the tension is very high since right now it's a tie between Speedy Panda and Pigsy's Noodles. I could feel my heart beating out from my chest, will Uncle Tang choose my dessert or Speedy Panda's. Uncle Tang took a bite from my dessert, he silent for a minute, he even made the audience feel anxious, then he finally spoke
"My vote goes to..."
I was shaking non-stop, and I felt MK grab my hand and gave it a squeeze for reassurance, I calmed myself down for a moment and I looked at Uncle Tang again
"Pigsy's Noodles!" Uncle Tang said "Of course, I'll choose her sweets! They're the best in the whole world!"
"The winner of round 2 goes to Pigsy's Noodles!" Now we're tied with Speedy Panda and the final round will determine the winner, Jin and Yin said since it's a sudden death battle, the loser must be closed down their restaurant forever
"And now, the final competition... Mascot Combat!" The MC said
'Mascot Combat?! But... We don't have a mascot!' I thought to myself
The 2 demons summoned their mascot which was a giant panda mech, when I fell to my knees, I felt tears started to spill out
"Sakura?" MK looked at me with concern
"It's gonna be my fault if we lose... Uncle Pigsy dedicated his whole life on the restaurant, if we lose... it's gonna be my fault!" I said and the tears spilled from my eyes
"No way! We're not gonna lose! I may not understand your irrational love for sweets! Or working hard or Pigsy being angry all the time, but you are always there when I need you! So, it's time for me to return the favor! Because Pigsy's Noodles, are noodles and sweets worth fighting for!" MK said and I felt moved by his words, I wiped away the tears from my eyes and stood up
"You're right MK, it's too early for me to give up! Now, let's go beat those two up!" I said as I pulled the sword from my chest changing my appearance and MK tossed himself and Uncle Pigsy in the air
"Here... Comes... Monkie... Kid!" MK and Pigsy landed the staff near the van, and it changed into a pig mech, when Jin and Yin were busy talking, the pig mech landed near them to see
"Us, little guys and gal are fighting back. Your tyrannical reign over the food sector in this city is over!" MK said
"No amount of convenience food will never win the hearts of us food lovers!" Uncle Tang said
"Uncle Tang!" I called out to him with a smile
"I would never vote against you sweetie" Uncle Tang reassured me
"Oh yeah? Bring it on little piggies!" Jin said as the Speedy Panda delivery guys showed up
"Alright then, you kids ready for this? We'll show these guys what being chef is all about!" Uncle Pigsy said and we nodded in agreement. We were about to fight, but a female demon staff appeared holding a clipboard
"Hang on! We ain't got the budget for this!" The female demon said as she stopped the fight before it even started
"Oi! What's all this saying?!" Yin asked
"Well, you spilled our profits on that panda mech, we ain't got enough money to pay our drivers!" The female demon said showing Jin and Yin the paper of their profits "Baby Panda is bankrupt!"
"What?! Give me that!" Jin took the clipboard from her hands to see, then one of their drivers looked furious
"We're not getting paid?" The Speedy Panda driver asked as he gave the 2 demons a cold look
The 2 demons tried to make up an excuse about money, but in the end, they got beat up by their former drivers. Uncle Pigsy covered mine and MK's eyes so we wouldn't see. In the end, we won the Food Wars, and we even took a picture for Uncle Pigsy to hang on his wall
