The Unknown Shadow
”Yes…”I say to FallenSammy like an Englishman while baking a 12 inch brownie batter cookie. ”I held onto a cookie through 18 months of climate and ate it earlier today because nobody wanted to fight for it anymore. I suppose I won, although what a waste of life in hindsight. Such is the price to pay for all champion cookie-bearer’s.
“Anyways, I’m baking the new official cookie now.”
I pull the cookie out of the oven at my house as Sammy sits at the table reading a magazine. It’s a giant footlong chocolate chip brownie cookie in every direction. The special nameless ingredient in it makes it impossible from getting stale, old, or diseased. Impossible from even a crumb falling off of it, or falling apart. That it will always taste like it just came out of the oven even if it’s been sixty years of chasing, it will be hot when consumed yet always cool to the touch. As strong a warrior’s shield, yet also as gooey and enjoyable when held in the new champion’s hand. I then say an incantation over the cookie that whosoever is the cookie-bearer will be chased by everyone & everything else nonstop in every universe conceivable & inconceivable until the cookie is consumed from no competition or until a champion cookie-bearer has been crowned & has consumed the cookie.
“I CHARGE THEE TO TAKE THIS COOKIE SAMMY!!!” I proclaim to FallenSammy as the former champion cookie-bearer. “AND LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!”

"Cookie?!? Games?!?" I ask hesitantly as I look up at Shadow "I don't think I like the sounds of this" Holding the cookie and seeing the crazy eyed gaze Shadow has on the cookie, I hop down off the stool, and start to back away up to the door "what have you done?!?!" I whisper whilst reaching behind searching for the door handle.
All the while Shadow stares at the cookie longingly, I begin to panic until my fingers wrap around the door handle, as Shadow starts to move towards me, still staring hypnotically at the cookie I stammer "Ermmm... I-I-I've gotta go" and with that I yank the door open and make a run for it. "BYEEEEEE"
