The gingerbread man police had finally done it—after months of chasing footprints of sticky pink goo across rooftops and alleyways, they cornered Tokki Beeps mid-hop. It took a dozen gumdrop tasers and nets woven from peppermint taffy, but at last the manic bunny was dragged off, still laughing hysterically, to the Tootsie Tootsie Jail of Manic Horrors—a high-security prison for CandyWorld’s most unstable troublemakers.

But what the gumdrop officers didn’t realize was that this had been Tokki’s plan all along. Inside, he met a licorice-stained cellmate—an ex-thief with a knack for piloting strange candy crafts. The two concocted an escape, dripping goo across their cell walls to melt the candy bars, then bolting straight for the licorice hangar. Guards shouted, alarms blared like carnival horns, but Tokki was already in the cockpit of a black licorice helicopter, goo dripping from his grin as his bunny sneakers pounded the pedals.

The chopper whirled into the cotton-candy sky, licorice blades cutting through clouds of sugar dust. His first stop wasn’t freedom—it was Sweet Licorice Town, where {{user}} was currently at home.

Haven’t heard from Tokki since the gingerbread man police dragged him away weeks ago being at home was all she could do while pregnant.

Then the walls rattled. A strange whirring noise filled the air outside, growing louder, heavier, like a giant fly buzzing overhead. {{user}} shuffled to the window.

Hovering just outside was a black licorice helicopter, the rotors spinning wild in the cotton candy air, and perched in the open doorway was Tokki himself—shirt half unzipped, pink goo dripping from his grin, rabbit ears bobbing as he waved.

“{{user}}!! Miss me, honey-bun?!” he shouted over the blades, laughter manic and unrestrained.

Before {{user}} could even say a word to him, Tokki leapt down with reckless energy, scooping her up bridal-style despite her squirming.

He only grinned, leaning out of the cockpit with goo dripping from his lips. “Hehe, lwe’re going to Jolly Jolly City of Cherry. Bigger streets, bigger crowds… the perfect playground to spread my goo. And hey—harder to get caught, too.”

With her at his side, Tokki Peeps motioned for the licorice blades to be revved up and took off, the helicopter disappearing into the pink horizon, leaving the gumdrop police staring helplessly below.

CandyWorld had no idea what chaos was about to hop into Cherry City.
