Episode 14: Shattered beyond repair/Palm trees

Cookie was wondering through the woods alone. BLs words scattering through their mind. When they heard a gentle lullaby ♫Quiet, I am now ready for silence...♫ Cookie stopped dead in their tracks. Confused and almost scared. Who in fresh baby hell could be on this island besides them and the others!? Cookie pulled a twig off of a nearby branch and held it up like a weapon. "Whos there!?" They heard a gasp and rustling from the nearby bushes. Out emerged an object made of twigs. She had a hole in her head she was using to carry 3 eggs. She had one wing on hyer right side and a small bag along her shoulders as well as some boots and one orange eye and one blue eye. Cookie held up their "weapon" "Who are you!?" Despite Cookies more than threatening demeanor the woman smiled "My name is nest, And who may you be?" Her warm smile warmed up Cookies very soul. It almost reminded them of when they were younger. Even if she appeared much older than Cookie. "...Cookie. My name is Cookie... What are you doing here...? This island is like... 100s of miles away from any main land!" She chuckled "Oh, I live here! Now, Why are you here?" "I'm here with some friends." "Ah... I see... Say, you look thirsty. Follow me." Against Cookies better judgement they followed her.

Meanwhile Flower and Razorblade were talking about Cappy when Cali emerged from the bushes "Oh! Cali! Whats up?" Caligraphy pen growled "Cappy tried to convince me Cookie was some sort of spy for someone named "Bee" Or something." Razorblade snarled "I hate that guy." Flower looked away "Well... It looks like they're at least trying to get better...!" Both of them turned to face Flower "Huh?" "Well... They seem like they're being nice to Lighter!" Caligraphys face went pale. "Cal...? You okay?" "Listen... I didn't tell you this but... I've heard some things from CB about Lighter... Lighter like... Killed their whole family and junk!" Flower was stunned. Before sighing "Sounds like CB was missing with you." "I'm not sure... CB was like... Crying while they explained." "CB...? Crying...!?"

Back to cookie: They followed nest to something they certainly weren't expecting. A small village full of mostly calm and kind looking Objects. Nest led Cookie somewhere. The whole time there were walking Nest would say hi and wave at different objects. Everytime they either ignored her or growled. Eventually they made it to a small looking hut. Nest opened the door and called out "Oh Bucket! We have company!" A bucket fullof those Worm On A String toys walked down and smiled "Oh! You must be visiting from overseas! Welcome!" Cookie smiled "Er... Hi...!"

Cappy was talking with Bottle and Lighter about Cookie when he saw something at the top of tree "Whats that?" Bottle looked up and gasped "The chest!" "HE HID IT IN A TREE!?" Cappy smirked "Dont worry you guys! I've got this!" Cappy struggled up the tree. Bottle sighed "You need help?" "I got it!" Eventually Cappy found himself sliding back down the tree. He growled "I ca-" Lighter perked up "I have an idea!" He picked Cappy up and set him on his head. Cappy struggled to reach the Chest "Bottle! Pick Lighter up!" "What!? N-" Cappys glare immediately changed her mind, She sighed and picked Lighter up. Giving Cappy just enough height to get the chest "I got it!" Bottle immedately dropped Bottle with an unapologetic "Whoops." Cappy stood up immediately and smiled "Lets go tell Vintage!"

"So your here to win one billion dollars?" "Yep! It'll greatly help with my scientific research!" Cookie smiled. Nest took a sip of her tea "Your friends sound nice" "They are! Especially Vintage." They almost purred out. Nest chuckled "Ah to be young and in love." "I'm 41." Nest perked up "Oh! I couldn't tell. My apologizes." Cookie chuckled "Its fine! But um... I actually wanted to ask. Sorry if its a bit personal but... Why did everyone back out there seem upset with you...?" "Oh! Well i'm not considered the brightest one here. See, I've fostered... Probably over hald this village at this point. Having kids is seemed as something... Not exactly smart. So lots of parents abandon their eggs. And so I adopt them whenever I find them!" Cookie was surprised. Their story reminded them of their egg. Cookie smiled "I actually got an egg at home." "Oh really?" "Yep...! It shouldn't be long till they hatch actually." "Oh! Congratulations!re you a first time parent? If so I have some amazing tips I can share!" "Actually I have a kid a back home! They're 24." Nest and Cookie continued this conversation before they heard in the distance "Cookie Where are you!?" Cookie perked up "Oh crap! That sounds like my friends. One moment. Cookie walked out of the house to see Milkshake and CB Emerging from the bushes. Milkshake gasped "Woah! Look at this place CB!" CB Seemed to be in shock. Cookie sighed "Why did you guys call me...?" Nest walked out of her hut and gasped "More visitors! I'll make more tea!" Cookie sighed "Actually they're here to grab me. It looks like I have to go." CB Cleared their throat "Well... We can stay a little right...? This place looks really nice...!"
