A/N
I was feeling a little down today and this came into my mind as I like Cookie in Team Ogre besides Warrior Fiona, the female ogre chef is my second fave in the resistance but I'm curious about how she joined the movement and met Brogan so this is kind of how I imagine it happened but in this, Cookie was taken into care because her parents were taken by hunters but she has been in the shelter for six long years and longs for a family but then she befriends a young ogre boy who comes to the shelter and they become the best of friends but then he tells her of the movement and they run away.
To me, it's like the movement is like a family to Cookie and she's sweet and kind.
I hope SFA fans enjoy but I like writing fics where Shrek and the gang are little kids.
It was a stormy night but in Far, Far Away in a children's home, somebody was still awake as the storm had woken her from slumber as she was feeling bad but looking at the rain made her sad as it made her remember the night when she'd been brought here.
Her name was Cookie and had been in the shelter since she was a baby but was always overlooked for adoption as no couples wanted an ogre in their family which made her sad but she sighed.
She was six years old now and was in her room all the time pretending to have her own home or a kitchen as she liked to cook but wasn't allowed in the kitchens a lot but she was hungry as she had dinner but was still hungry but smiled pulling out a sack from under her pillow which had candy in it that she'd smuggled from the kitchen when the grown- ups weren't looking.
She smiled a little sadly as the nougat was easing her hunger pangs but she sighed knowing that nobody would adopt her.
She was wearing an old night dress with an apron over it and didn't have a chef's hat.
She then heard thunder and whimpered but hugged something close to her.
It was a plush of a cookie that her mother had given her when she had been born and hadn't named it yet but slept with it every night as it felt like her mother was still with her.
"Don't worry.
Maybe somebody will adopt us." she told it.
She blinked back tears at that possiblitly.
Suddenly she began to yawn as she was geting sleepy but saw a shooting star in the night sky and remembered something her parents had told her when they were still a family about how wishing on a star could make dreams come true.
"Maybe if I do it, my wish will come true." she told herself.
She then looked up at the night sky as she had a wish in her heart.
"I wish for somebody to be my friend.
Somebody who'll care about me." she thought.
She then let sleep overtake her as her etes closed...
Early the next morning, there was knocking on the door as the owner of the shelter answered it seeing two men with a young ogre boy that looked around six or seven years old but she understood as she brought him inside but brought him upstairs to Cookie's room as she knew the young ogress had wanted a room mate for so long as she smiled but the youngster was nervous as he had an alligator skin back pack on his back.
He was nervous because his parents had been captured and was afraid but was trying to be brave but was tired as he hadn't slept because of the storm as his eyes closed in sleep...
