•·.·Madeleine's POV·.·•
"Your suspicions were correct" I said when I entered the throne room
"Figured. Well, you know what to do. Throw the red one in the dungeon, and bring me the coffee mage" Cursed Crystal
I nodded, then I left
•·.·Espresso's POV·.·•
"Now get the fuck out" I said
"Fine" Pomegranate said
Then she left
"Glad she knows what her place is" I shrugged
Then I saw Madeleine come in
'Ew. Get out'
"Your majesty has requested your presence" He said
"Mm ok" I said
Then I followed him to the throne room
When I entered, Madeleine left the room
"Alright, cut the crap. I know your secret" Cursed Crystal said while coming up to me
I groaned and shapeshifted into my original look
"What gave it away?" I asked
"Madeleine eavesdropped because I thought you were suspicious from the start" Cursed Crystal said
I facepalmed
"I'm used to his betrayal at this point" I shrugged
Then I realized something
'Pomegranate's probably in the dungeon.. I should save her. Despite me hating her'
'I need to think of a distraction.'
'Wait, I don't need one'
I took off my cloak and wrapped it around my waist
"Catch me if you can, BITCH" I exclaimed
Then I quickly flew away with my wings
•·.·Pomegranate's POV·.·•
I was sitting in my cell when I saw something fly into the dungeon
I was somewhat shocked when I saw that it was Espresso
They walked over to my cell
"Surprised you came" I said
"Yeah, shut up" They sighed
"Now where the fuck is the key" They continued
"The guy with the key went that way" I said while pointing at where the guard went
"Ok thanks"
Then they flew towards the direction I pointed at
•·.·Espresso's POV·.·•
When I saw the guy with the key, I walked towards him
"Who are you and what are you doing here??" He demanded while pointing his spear at me
"I think it says gullible on the ceiling" I said
The guard looked up, then I snatched the keys
"It doesn't- aaand you stole my keys" He said
I smirked and bitchslapped him with my wing
He kicked my groin, so I stared at him blankly
"I was born a girl" I said in a monotone voice
"Oh" The guard said
Then I chained him with magic and flew away
"Got the keys" I said when I got to Pomegranate's cell
I unlocked the cell door, then she walked out
"Oh also, they were going to execute me" Pomegranate said
I blinked
"FOR FUCKING TREASON???" I exclaimed
"Mhm" Pomegranate hummrd
"For treason, I'd expect life in the dungeon. BUT THE FUCKING DEATH PENALTY???"
"Yeahhh, punishments are worse when a tyrant is in charge"
"I can tell.."
(just found out that death penalty is a normal consequence for treason)
(oh well. the kingdom was originally ruled by pv. that doesnt apply here)
I got ready to fly again
"Can you manage?" I asked
"I mean, my magic isn't as strong without my mirror. I left it at the lair. So I guess not" Pomegranate said
I facepalmed
"How. How are my kid and my partners cookies.." I groaned
Then I grabbed Pomegranate and teleported back to the Cookies of Darkness lair
"Ok I'm leaving now bye" I said
Then I teleported back to my lair
"Oh, didn't expect you to be back so soon" Lavender said
"Apparently that king is smarter than I thought" I said
"That's interesting"
"Yeah-"
"PARENT" I heard Strawberry Crepe yell
Then they hugged me
I smiled and hugged them back
"Hey kiddo" I said
"Where were you??" Strawberry Crepe asked
"Attending to.. matters"
"What were they?"
"Committing treason"
"Oh. Sounds fun!"
"It was.. Until it only lasted a bit because Madeleine snitched after he eavesdropped on me"
"He's still being an ass?"
"Yeah. He is"
"Not surprised!"
Then they skipped away
I put my cloak back on, then I sat on my throne
'I really should've beat Cursed Crystal's ass when I had the chance..'
'Oh well. I'd like to fuck with that cookie some more'
I smirked and pulled out a notebook and pen
'Plan plotting time'
