•·.·The next day, Espresso's POV·.·•
"I've been trying to decide since last fucking night" I said
"It does seem like a tough decision" Roguefort shrugged
"It really does. Plus, I know damn well I have enough power to easily take down that stupid tyrant"
I looked down at my feet (or legs. man idk they're cookies in this story)
"Although, it could be intriguing to stoop down to the level of these cookies" I muttered
"But it does mean I'd have to work with.. him.." I grumbled
"Who- ohh.. Right" Roguefort muttered
I thought for a moment and looked at Roguefort
"What would you choose, Rogue?" I asked
Roguefort shrugged
"If it meant getting rid of Cursed Crystal, I'd do it" They said
"But don't make me choose for you" They continued
"I know, I just.. Need some help deciding" I said
"Doing a spy mission seems kind of cool, but the fact that I have to deal with that stupid knight commander.." I continued
I looked at the coffee mug I was holding
"But maybe this is necessary" I said
I thought for a minute again
'This whole thing might be.. interesting'
'..Maybe I should give it a shot'
"Tell String Gummy that I decided to do it" I said
"Alright" Roguefort said
"Love ya"
I hugged him and kissed him
Then I left
"Lavender, take care of the lair while I'm gone. I've made my decision" I said when I saw Lavender
"Alright" She said
.•*•.•*•. .•*•.•*•.
When I got inside the Cookies of Darkness lair, I silently scoffed
'Brings back memories.. yuck'
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" I heard Licorice exclaim
"Where's your master?" I smirked while turning to him
"YOU D-"
Then I heard Pomegranate clear her throat
I looked at her
"I assume you've made your decision" She said
"No I'm here to finish what I started" I said sarcastically
"...Anyways, follow me. I have disguises"
She started walking somewhere, so I followed
When we got to where she was going, I looked at the disguises
"I already picked yours out. It's right there" Pomegranate said as she gestured to a disguise
It had a small whipped cream hat with a light brown suit and black pants. It also had a tan cape.
"Your name will be Viennese" Pomegranate said
"Isn't viennese just espresso with cream?" I asked
"Yeah"
I snorted
"Didn't even try. It's not bad though" I said
Then I grabbed my disguise and went to go change
•·.·Pomegranate's POV·.·•
I put on my disguise, then I waited a bit
A couple minutes later, I was still waiting on Espresso
"What is taking you so long?" I asked
"Shut the fuck up" I heard Espresso say
I sighed
'For the leader of a group of followers, their manners are just.. non existent'
After about 20 minutes, Espresso came back looking totally different
I almost didn't recognize them
"Style takes a while, Pomefart" Espresso said
I rolled my eyes and got up
"Now let's go" Espresso said in a pretty different voice
"How are you- nevermind" I said
Then we both left
•·.·Espresso's POV·.·•
'I have to say, I made myself look really good and different'
I took a selfie and sent it to my partners
When we got closer to the castle, I braced myself
"When we get there, I do the talking" I said contemptuously
"Why?" Pomegranate asked
"I want to. Anyways, what's your fake name?"
"Currant Cookie" (fun fact: i actually have an oc named currant cookie)
"Alright"
As soon as we went to the castle gates, the guards went in front of us
"Who are you two and why are you here?" One of them said
I cleared my throat and talked like I never took any testosterone (jsyk, espresso is afab in this au. they just took testosterone and basically transitioned to be more male presenting)
"My name is Viennese Cookie, and this is Currant Cookie. We're simply here because we would like to join your majesty" I said
"Ah. Follow us to the throne room, then" The other guard said
Then the guards started to lead us to the throne room
"What was that??" Pomegranate mouthed
"I was born a girl. And despite me taking testosterone, I can still do a pretty good feminine voice" I mouthed back
Pomegranate smiled a bit
"That's actually impressive" She mouthed
"Thank you. But remember that we're enemies after this" I mouthed back
"Yeah, I know"
"And here's the throne room" One of the guards said
"Shouldn't we let him know?" The other one said
"Oh yea"
Then they both went in
"Why can't you be more respectful? This is literally the only time you've showed respect" Pomegranate mouthed
"Shut up" I mouthed back
"Alright, you two are free to go in" One of the guard said while opening the door
I nodded, then we both went in
"You two are lucky I'm looking for cookies to work in the castle" Cursed Crystal said
'And you're lucky I haven't beaten your ass yet. Cause I would've put you in your fucking place'
"Anyways, Introduce yourselves" Cursed Crystal said
"My name is Viennese Cookie, and this is Currant Cookie" I introduced
Then I bowed
Pomegranate bowed too
'Ew her bow is gross wtf'
'Probably because she's short'
"Viennese.. That's just espresso with cream. Reminds me of someone" Cursed Crystal said
"Hm?" I hummed
"Reminds me of Espresso Cookie. They definitely have an issue with me. You don't look or sound like them though, so your good"
"Ohhh"
'Get bamboozled bitch. I am the one and only Espresso Dragon Cookie.. Or Espresso Cookie.. It depends'
"Anyways, worshipping time is in a couple minutes. Guards, lead them to the worshipping room" Cursed Crystal said
'Excuse me, WHAT??'
The guards nodded and started leading us out
"Is he being fucking for real?" I mouthed
"It.. seems like he is" Pomegranate mouthed back
"What the actual fuck are we walking into.."
"I don't know, but let's hope it'll be over soon"
