Cookie Crumble Match

The Cookie Crumble Match is an important match that takes place in Part 4 of Act 1 in Furry Fight Chronicles. It's a match between Team Starkiller and Team Resurrector with high stakes on the line.

## Description

### The Challenge

Shortly after Cookie got Kalita to become Muko's Combagal partner, an enraged Freydar went to the Tendonchi Challenges Recap Show to challenge Cookie. She challenged Cookie's Combagals to a match. If Cookie's Combagals won, then they would get the right to skip the Tendonchi Challenges to fight Skully and Bolouma for the title of Tendonchi Champions. However, if Freydar won, then Cookie and her Combagals would have to leave Botaun forever and never do furry fighting there.

Before Freydar could do something reckless, Shun Gonfano arrives and reminds Freydar that her doctor forbid her from fighitng, pointing out that she's at risk of getting blind should she receive another blow. Grudgingly, Freydar changed the terms of the match. Rather than facing Cookie's Combagals herself, Freydar was going to pick two random Combagals and train them for the match.

Though Cookie didn't want to take the match, rationalizing that Freydar's Combagals would be stronger than the Tendonchi Champions, she ultimately decided to face her past. She turned Muko and Kalita into Heel Combagals under the name Team Starkiller. She then convinced Snuggly and Sleepy to be defeated by Team Starkiller so that Cookie could accept the challenge and get enough Heat. After Team Starkiller defeats Snuggly and Sleepy following their reconciliation, Cookie declares her intention of accepting the match.

Meanwhile, Freydar already picked up her choice. She chose Nyarai, the Masato Champion and fellow Cyclone Crusher, to be her first Combagal. She and Shun then tracked down Sephario and convinced her to become the second Combagal of Team Resurrector. As Freydar trained them, she kept Nyarai and Sephario's identity a secret to prevent Cookie from making a strategy.

### Prologue of the Match

Thanks to Daikarin becoming their trainer, Team Starkiller begun their training. Muko was able to learn the basics of furry fighting and Kalita's fighting prowess dramatically increased. After their first day of training, Kalita went to Yoko Orphanage where she met Shun. The sumiguza tried to bribe Kalita into losing the match, preparing to give her more money than she would get from winning the Tendonchi Championship by losing against Freydar's Combagals. Though Kalita refuses, Shun warns her that she will be trialed for her criminal acts as a member of the Roda Kira Gang once she turns eighteen after the match, meaning that winning is a bad idea for her. Kalita refuses to listen to Shun, who warns her that winning would mean the end of the world.

Meanwhile, Nyarai met Mellow, who intended to spy on her, feeling that she'd be one of Freydar's Combagals. Realizing that Mellow is a spy, Nyarai decided to let him hang out with him and taking her on dates. She made sure to tell him that Freydar chose her as one of the Combagals facing Team Starkiller and also told him a fake weakness that she had ticklish feet to test his loyalty. However, Nyarai kept the identity of her tag team partner a secret.

Once the match arrived, Team Starkiler was met by Mellow, who told them everything that he found out about Nyarai. Meanwhile, the Tendonchi Masters were chosen as commentators of the match. Despite being impartial, they all started to cheer for Freydar upon realizing that the victory of Team Starkiller would mean that their beloved Tendonchi Challenges will be skipped. The two teams made their entrance with Muko and Nyarai being the first Combagals.

### Match With Nyarai

The first fight of the match was Muko against Nyarai, as the two former teammates were going to face each other for the first time since the Masato Match. Muko showed her increase in skill, landing a few blows on Nyarai and even removing her mummy bandages, leaving her fighting in a bikini for the rest of the match. Despite this, Muko knew that Nyarai was still her better, so she tagged Kalita in.

Both Kalita and Nyarai prove to be equal to each other thanks to their highly aggressive fighitng styles. After an intense match that lasted twenty minutes, Kalita tagged Muko in. The purpose of the fight was to exhaust Nyarai so that Muko could defeat her while she was exhausted so that she and Kalita would have enough strenght to face against the second Combagal. Muko purposely annoys Nyarai to get the cheetah riled up, after which Muko hits her with a Muko Meteor and starts tickling her feet. At first Muko believes that she's defeating Nyarai, only for Nyarai to reveal that her ticklishness is a fake weakness.

Nyarai starts beating up Muko while Kalita watches the beating. The vixen Combagal is pondering if she should lose on purpose or fight to defend Muko. After deliberating with her feelings, Kalita decides to save Muko by illegally tagging in, blocking a kick from Nyarai and declaring that Muko is her friend. Though Kalita is back to fighting Nyarai, the difference between them becomes obvious as Kalita dodges her blows and hits Kalita with a Pyro Twister followed by a Leg Jet Burst. Kalita struggles to block Nyarai's kicks, making Cookie succumb to despair.

Unwilling to lose hope, Muko figures out Nyarai's weakness and has Kalita tag her in to save her. Upon entering the ring, Muko uses her agility to dodge Nyarai's kicks and ties her up with the bandages of her mummy costume. She then starts strangling Nyarai, figuring out that she uses neck jewelry because she has a fear of being strangled. Nyarai tries to escape Muko, but she's ultimately choked into submission.

Freydar then enters the ring and drags Nyarai out, throwing her in a sarcophagus. Since Freydar entered the ring and Nyarai was strangled by Muko, Nyarai is eliminated from the match. Freydar then slams the second sarcophagus and announces her departure, believing that Sephario will be more than enough to win the match. Cookie attempts to apologize to Freydar for abandoning her, admitting that she didn't visit her at the hospital because she was ashamed of failing her and begging her not to hate her. Freydar coldly says that she feels nothing but indifference for Cookie before leaving wth Nyarai.

The sarcophagus then breaks, revealing that Sephario is the second Combagal of Team Resurrector

### Match With Sephario

Sephario proves to be too much for Team Starkiller. Despite Muko and Kalita facing her two-on-one and having the support of the fans, Kalita is sent flying out of the ring by Sephario, leaving Muko to fight alone. Muko attempts to fight Sephario, but nothing that she does works on her. She's curious to see why Sephario is called the Kalandesian Threat, which causes Sephario to explain that she caused Trilamity Day.

Sephario's explanation makes Muko melt in trauma as she remembers her mother dying on Trilamity Day. She attempts to get revenge, but Sephario's blows destroy her liquified body. Kalita wakes up in the middle of the fight. However, by the time Kalita arrives, Sephario gives Muko the finishing blow, reducing her to a blob.

Since Muko is unable to fight, Kalita is the only way to win the match. With her determination, she lands blows on Sephario, even knocking her down. However, Sephario's size and experience prove to be too much for Kalita. Realizing that Sephario will win, Cookie points out that Sephario's victory will not be accepted since people hate her for being Kalandesian.

In a display of charisma and manipulation, Shun makes the Concattan audience recognize that Sephario was a scapegoat for what happened in Trilamity Day, pointing out how she never sought revenge despite the mistreatment that she suffered since that day. Realizing that her actions endangered her Combagals, Cookie gives permission to Kalita to give up, resulting in Team Starkiller losing the match.

### Aftermath

For Muko, she finally came to terms with her mother's death. She reconciled with Saniko and visited Betsy's grave for the first time in years. She also somehow established a romantic relationship with Shira, though it was forced to become a long-term relationship since Muko was going to leave Botaun forever.

For Cookie, she relapsed into alcoholism. However, this time, she had Daikarin to comfort her. In the span of two days, they fell in love and decided to get married. They also found out that Kalita was an orphan from Shun, who bought Yoko Orphanage to kept it safe and had the Cyclone Crushers babysit the orphans.

Kalita was unconscius for two days. Upon waking up, she was informed of everything that happened during those two days. Cookie and Daikarin then asked her to be adopted by them. Though the duo attempt to leave Kalita alone to ponder the decision, Kalita leaves the hospital room and accepts to be adopted, finally ready to open up to people again.

Team Starkiller then had a last night out at Toco Niku to celebrate their final night at Botaun. During that night, Cookie announced that she intended to enter Team Starkiller to the Queens of Fighters tournament by having them fight across the city states of Concatta. However, they were going to have to L'Asagne Farm in order for Cookie to reconcile with her father.

The following morning, Cookie finally left Monyan after living there for two days. She and Team Starkiller said goodbye to their loved ones before leaving Botaun, ready to start their furry fighting journey across Concatta.
