-
35.
>"I'l get ya, you pesky pony grabber!"
-
36.
>the ccactus is somehow winning the fight every swing Pulp Spike throws lands her with more cuts on her hooves.
-
37.
>a large stallion is soon pulling her away from her foe, his dark grey mane billowing in the wind and his boxing glove cutie mark catches your eye.
-
38.
>"Redgum! lemme go!"
-
39.
>"ya ain't to be smashing me plants and ya know it lil Pulp!"
-
40.
>"S-sorry Redgum"
-
41.
>"Celestia knows I don't want ya gettin' hurt Pulp, why ya gotta go thrashing every cactus ya see?"
-
42.
>"if I don't smash it I don't know if it's a pony grabber"
-
43.
>"come on luv, ya know that's an old mares tale"

-
48.
>her eyes are tearing up slightly.
-
49.
>"ya ready to head off then?"
-
50.
>nodding, you follow her lead as she walks away from the small town.
-
51.
>as she leads you into the desert you see her eyeing up every cactus with a mixture of hatred, distrust and fear.
-
52.
>as you look back on the town you can see ponies coming out of there houses to watch you go.
-
53.
"so how long have you been a desert guide?"
-
54.
>"all ma life, all of the pulps have been guides, cept for my uncle fiction but we don't talk 'bout him much.
-
55.
"and why don't you talk about him?"
-
56.
>"no idea, we don't talk about it"
-
57.
>the journey soon begins as the two of you trot into the desert.
-
58.
>with the sun midway across the sky the heat soon beomes a nuisance.
-
59.
>"you okay? not too hot? we can stop for water if you'd like"
-
60.
>she's looking back at you, herr poncho billowing in the light desert breeze.
-
61.
"I wouldn't mid a quick stop"
-
62.
>you manage you speak through pants.
-
63.
>"great, we'll stop over by that big boulder!"
-
64.
>she points a good few hundred meters away to a large red rock in the sands.
-
65.
>"we can eat some food as well so don't you worry"
-
66.
>a few moments later and you're next to the boulder, the food is cactus
-
67.
>the cactus actually tastes rather nice, you greedily eat as the cool liquid sloshes down your throat.
-
68.
"I must say this is very nice"
-
69.
>Pulp Spike is ignoring you, instead she is slowly sneaking up on a large cactus.
-
70.
>she pounces.
-
71.
>she yells
-
72.
>she gets pricked
-
73.
>she yells again
-
74.
"um, are you okay?"
-
75.
>"I'm fine! did the dam cactus run away?"
-
76.
"um no... it's still there, you sure you're alright?"
-
77.
>quickly regaining her composure she trots back over to you.
-
78.
>"yes I'm fine silly, you ready to get going?"
-
79.
>following her lead you march away from the rock, passing what you notice might be your own hoof prints in the sand.
-
80.
>the desesrt heat might be playing tricks on you and you put your faith in Pulp Spike and her abilities.
-
81.
>the hot, coarse sand rubs agaisnt your hooves as your saddle bag bounces lazily on your back.
-
82.
>"we'll be there by sundown and it'll bloom in the morning, I hear that only two other pegasi will be there, Dire and Straits, heard of them?"
-
83.
>you shake your head in response noticing the sand fall out of your mane, you don't like sand, it's coarse and rough and iritating and it gets everywhere.
-
84.
>you stop shaking your head when you realise that being in front of you means she can't see you... stupid pony.
-
85.
"I can't say I have, have you?"
-
86.
>"never met them but I hear Dire is a cut above the rest when it comes to desert flying, they call her the desert rose"
-
87.
>listening to her talk you notice the slow and lazy swishing of her tail, the slow motion with the heavy desert heat is almost hypnotic.
-
88.
>"ah hope ya don't mind but we gotta cuddle to share body heat tonight, otherwise you'll be mighty cold"
-
89.
>the sudden mention of intimacy pulls you to reality and you trot up close to her side.
-
90.
"I don't mind at all"
-
91.
>"good, cause I don't wanna freeze toight"
-
92.
>she slips a hoof around your shoulder, pulling you close.
-
93.
>"at least if you freeze I still get paid"
-
94.
>laughing nervously you nod, noticing her smile thou makes you realise that she is of course joking.
-
95.
>soon the sun is hanging heavy in the sky and several flys begin to appear.
-
96.
>after another hour of walking the hot desert sand begins to cool quite rappidly as the sun sets.
-
97.
>stopping to admire the beautiful sight Pulp Spike lets out a slow sigh.
-
98.
>her breath visisble in the cool night air.
-
99.
>"the never bloom is just over that ridge, you can even see the light of a campfire look.
-
100.
>she points a bandaged hoof to the sand dune a short walk away and within minuets the two of you are at the top of it.
-
101.
>shiverring from the chill you walk towards the campfire where two tents have been set up.
-
102.
>sitting next to the fire are two pegasi cuddling under a blanket.
-
103.
>the orange female one with knotted green mane looks up from the fire and waves the two of you over
-
104.
>"Ms.Paint? I'm Dire and this is my husband Straits"
-
105.
>the light brown pegasus nods at you, not speaking, his long pale blue mane catches in the wind, fluttering across his face.
-
106.
>before you can talk Pulp Spike interupts.
-
107.
>"nice to meet you both, I'm Pulp Spike,"
-
108.
>eyeing up the bandages both Dire and Straits shake her hoof before motioning the two of you to sit.
-
109.
>after severl moments in cold silence Straits finally break the emptyness with a gruff voice.
-
110.
>"we set up a tent for you two, it'll be us causing the rain for the neverbloom, nopony else is coming I think, it's too far to travel for most tourists and the flower is of little scientific importance."
-
111.
"I know that, I'm here to paint it actually"
-
112.
>you smile, motioning to the pile of art supplies you brought with you.
-
113.
>both pegasi just nod.
-
114.
>"very well, I and Dire will be turning in for the night, don't stay out for long it gets much colder.
-
115.
>a comfortable silence surrounds the two of you.
-
116.
>Pulp Spike just sits gazing into the dimming embers of the fire, her eyes twinkling in the low light of the moon.
-
117.
>after several seconds pass an eye glances over to you staring at her.
-
118.
>"you alright there?"
-
119.
>you feel yourself blush as she turns to meet your gaze in full.
-
120.
"Oh yes I'm fine thank you, just admiring the view"
-
121.
>"Ain't nothing to look at but me ya kno- oh..."
-
122.
>her cheeks turn a shade of crimson similar to your own.
-
123.
>"th-thank you"
-
124.
>hiding behind a bandaged hoof she smiles before getting up and walking towards the tent.
-
125.
>"I think it's time we turn in don't you?"
-
126.
>saunting towards the tent her tale flicks heavily in the dark night.
-
127.
>with a short gulp you follow, eyes fixed on her swishing tail.
-
128.
>the inside of the tent is pitch black without the light of the moon or fire.
-
129.
>trotting inside you take a few seconds to adjust to the lack of light before you notice Pulp Spike.
-
130.
>before you can ask what she's doing, she pounces, pinning you to the floor of then tent.
-
131.
>"hello"
-
132.
"uh, hel-"
-
133.
>lips pressing against your own cut you off.
-
134.
>keeping you pinned she continues to kiss you, soon your lips part, allowing her tongue free roam of your mouth.
-
135.
>pulling back she smile, a thin strand of saliva connecting your lips.
-
136.
>both of you pant in the gloom of the tent before Pulp brakes the silence.
-
137.
>"s-sorry"
-
138.
"don't be"
-
139.
>you kiss her again, longer this time, you allow yourself to feel the heat of her body pressed against your own.
-
140.
>moving from the kiss you softly bite her lower lip, Pulp lets out a small whimper in response.
-
141.
>pulling back from the kiss again she slowly moves to kiss down you neck.
-
142.
>your whole body shivers in anticipation.
-
143.
>taking the first opertunity that appears, you move swiftly, rolling over and pinning her down.
-
144.
>with the power in your hooves you kiss her back, then slowly leave a trail of kisses down her neck in return.
-
145.
>Pulp puts up no resistance as you kiss down her exposed body.
-
146.
>before you can go any further her back legs cross and she stuttes an ultimatum.
-
147.
>"n-no, not tonight okay? we need to rest from the long day"
-
148.
>she's breathing heavily as her hooves brush through your mane.
-
149.
>"we can still cuddle, for warmth"
