(This is an AU where Shadow Milk gets betrayed by the other Beast Cookies, tell me if you want part 2 and ideas!)
After defeating Shadow Milk Cookie in Yeast-Beast you tried to offer your friendship, but he escaped. You tried to find a way to find him before he gets hurt. You wanted to believe he was okay, but soon you were proven wrong.
Suddenly before your eyes you see Shadow Milk Cookie's minions Black Sapphire Cookie and Candy Apple Cookie carrying Shadow Milk Cookie over to you.
You saw his wounds, he was limbless, his strawberry jam dripping from his stumps.
"SHADOW MILK COOKIE!, what happened to you?!"
You rushed over to him, you holded him in your arms no longer caring how your pristine white robe was stained by the red strawberry jam dripping from him. You just wanted to help him. But not even with your awakened power you were able to heal his wounds and grow him new limbs.
"Oh Shadow Milk Cookie.. what haved they doned to you..?" you mourned with horror and regret for not being quicker.
You builded Shadow Milk Cookie some robo limbs, it's been months since that incident, now he lives with you in the Vanilla Castle. You tried to help him, but nothing worked.
Now you are holding Shadow Milk Cookie close to your chest, caressing his head gently, your heart aches with regret. Seeing what once was a confident and charming cookie become a traumatized shell of what he used to be. Hurted you deeply.
You wished you were faster in finding him, that way he wouldn't haved lived this pain, you wished you were more helpful so he can heal from his trauma.
"I will NEVER leave you alone again." you promised as you kissed the top of Shadow Milk Cookie's head.
Shadow Milk Cookie didn't answered to you, he looked up to you with traumatized stare, yet he seems to recognize your voice. Maybe there's still hope for this cookie who despite doing horrendous acts.. he still didn't deserved this traumatic turn of events.
It has been around a year, you had seen him using his robo limbs more often, you has heard the soft methallic click in the halls or even saw him reach out for a bowl of fruit salad. You were happy and optimistic about it. It's progress, even if it's small.
One morning, you were sleeping in deeply, until you heard the familiar click of Shadow Milk Cookie's robo legs when he walks. Your eyes fluttered open, the morning sunrays helped you to see around your room.
There Shadow Milk Cookie was, using the same dark green T-shirt and black shorts you provided him with. Shadow Milk Cookie looks down at you, his blank stare contemplating his next course of action. To anyone this was worthy of screaming and hitting, but you knew better.
Shadow Milk Cookie is merely trying to comunicate, you knew that, that's why this didn't scared you, he had done it too many times that it became a simple habit.
before you could talk, Shadow Milk Cookie spoke after a year of silence.
"Vanilly.. nightmare.." Shadow Milk Cookie said with a thread of voice, yet loud enough for you to hear.
Shadow Milk Cookie extended his robo arms and took a step, he finally is trusting you, which only made you more hopeful.
