Episode Eighteen: Of Clouds and Ropes
Cloud meets up with the other members of their team, and gets a rodeo he'll never forget
Cloud was pretty content watching the sky slowly melt into an orange color. He would have been happy watching this all day as he sat on Raindrop’s front porch eating chili dogs. He would have been, if Nightshade hadn’t come up to bug him.
Nightshade was still on ground level and looking up at him. “You, take me to the others.”
Cloud rolled his eyes. “Why?”
“Because I wish to converse with them.”
“But why?”
Nightshade let out a frustrated sigh. “Because against my own wishes I have joined your party, and I wish to meet the others. The world is already broken, can I at least pretend our group is whole?”
Cloud let out a sigh. “Fine. But our group is not broken. We’re just in different places at the moment, that should be fixed soon, but you wanna go meet the crazy ones I’ll help you meet the crazy ones. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
Cloud finished scarfing his chili dog down and then glared at the crow lady. She was taller than him, but even so he wasn’t going to let her intimidate him now. They were part of the same team, they’d fucked on that agreement.
Cloud jumped off the deck down four feet to the earth and landed on his feet. He then walked over to his van. “Get in the passenger side.”
Nightshade followed his instructions but grumbled the entire time. He really couldn’t imagine what Nightshade wanted. If it was just a quick fuck, Cloud was good for that. Yet he had to admit it must have been some time since Nightshade had seen any of them… any of the people they all grew up with.
Once everyone was indie and the doors were nice and locked, Cloud started the engine. He revved it up and then drove forward. Just as he reached the edge of the clearing, about to go down hill, he pushed a button to extend the wings on the side of the van and then watched as the van began to take off.
Once in the air Cloud could feel his body relaxing. This was where he belonged. Not on the ground, but in the sky. It was only sort of ironic then that Nightshade would look even more tense up here considering she was a bird and Cloud was a fox.
“It’s been a long time since you’ve seen some of them hasn’t it?”
Nightshade scoffed. “I do not ‘need’ to see them. I am not ‘worried’ at all.”
Cloud hadn’t said anything like that… but he had to admit he suspected Nightshade was worried about them, or perhaps about how they might treat her. Cloud was pretty sure that Slate had come to visit once or twice but Sophie, Sophie had never once come back to the old labs once they were all free. The memories for her were just too painful.
It was like that for all of them, except that for some reason, Nightshade hadn’t been able to pull herself away from it. She was stuck there, whether physically or emotionally, Nightshade had never left. Perhaps in someways, Sophie was the same.
Even Cloud remembered the first time the experiments and tests took a rough turn for him… it wasn’t pleasant. Even Doctor Clanker was hurt by the experience, and she was the villain. Oh well, those were old memories for old times. Things to forget about and move forward from.
It wasn’t long before they left the farmlands behind, fields of rolling blue grass began to fade into more sparse and thinned areas. Sand and red earth could be seen below them. They were heading west, but not so far this time.
Below them he saw it. There was a large lake and in the center of it was an island with a rather sizable house and wooded area next to it. He pulled the van toward the lake’s island and began lowering his altitude.
The landing was near perfect and he was in front of the house. Cloud opened the door and got out. He was the first one to walk to the front door. Nightshade seemed to hesitate.
The door opened up and he saw her. The most beautiful woman in the entire world. She stood taller than him at five feet and four inches tall. Had pristine dark yellow fur, almost a dirty blond, and pink hair that was spiky and stuck out to the right side. Her bright green eyes seemed piercing and her green blouse and matching skirt were tight against her well rounded figure.
She stepped over to him. “Cloud!” She threw her arms around him and he returned the hug.
“Sophie!”
She pulled away and giggled. “Where’s the real treat?”
Cloud let out a defeated sigh. Of course she was still on this. “Raindrop is back at home.”
Sophie scoffed. “Oh yeah, then who’s that in your van? Woohoo, future wife, come out here please!”
Raindrop had zero intentions to marry Sophie. Cloud on the other hand could have said yes if the offer was ever made toward it. It was not.
The door opened and Nightshade stepped out. Her rather large bosom was the opposite of Raindrop’s, her dark blue feathers were almost black and she shot a glare at Sophie so cold that it could freeze the hottest desert. “I will not be your betrothed.”
Sophie deflated. “W-what… Nightshade?”
Nightshade put a hand over her face. “It is I, the ultimate creation, cursed to perfection in a world of flaws. You would never understand the pain I’ve been through.”
Sophie groaned. “Awww, I don’t want the cheap knock off version of Raindrop. I wanted the real thing.’
Nightshade’s eyes opened and they stared, cold, and hard at Sophie. “You, will not survive the destruction I bring you.”
Sophie waved a hand dismissively and walked back inside. “Just try it feather brains, I got a giant hammer that’ll set you straight.”
Cloud looked at her. “Sorry, Sophie’s always like this.”
“That is no excuse to ignore my perfection, neigh, to insult it.”
Cloud groaned. “I hate both of you. Now lets go inside before it gets too dark. Slate is in there.”
They walked inside and could hear it. There was a deep rumbly voice coming from the room opposite of the living room that Sophie was in. Sophie had taken a seat on a pink rocking chair, a giant over sized hammer made of red metal sat next to it. “Come on it, take a seat, Slate will be done in a minute.”
They both took a seat on the couch. Nightshade was looking tense again, like she didn’t feel like she belonged here. Cloud felt bad for her. She really just wanted to belong, to be with family, and the Rainbow Droppers was the only family any of them had known.
Sophie spoke quietly. “So you joined our team? How is it?”
Nightshade let out a sigh. “I do not know. I am new here, and though I have helped you in the past to defeat the evil Doctor Clanker, this… team seems fractured. I wish to get to know all of you.”
Sophie nodded. “Good idea. So you know where four of us are, the other two are not here. Sorry.”
Nightshade didn’t seem too awfully upset by this, but she still seemed tense. Cloud spoke up. “Sophie, we’re all family and she’s having a difficult time adjusting. Please be gentle with her.”
Sophie glared at Nightshade. “Oh, need some tiny fox to fight for you now.”
Nightshade hissed. “I never asked him to ‘defend’ me. It is…” Nightshade let out a sigh. “It’s… I apologize, I should leave before my own pain flows to you.”
A deep and warm voice boomed from nearby. “No, don’t go so soon. You just got here and I baked cookies.”
They looked over to see Slate. He was an armadillo, a member of the Ol’ Digger clans, he was big, had smooth reddish-pink skin and brown armored sections on his back, arms and tail. His head was covered in red hair that came down like dreadlocks. He was also completely naked except for the pink apron he was wearing as he held a tray full of heart shaped chocolate cookies.
Nightshade licked her beak. “I… I could stay for you, food, for food I mean.”
Oh, so that was her ploy. Nightshade was looking for some muscle. Some six foot tall muscle. Slate was built like a football player, and could have easily been one if not for the fact he was wrapped up in the same experiments that made them all into the heroes they claimed to be now.
Slate walked over set the tray down on the coffee table and beamed at her. “Good, because I want to keep all the family nice, fed, and happy. Especially you, miss dark and gloomy.”
Nightshade smiled. She actually smiled for once. Cloud couldn’t believe it, was it true, was this really the place she belonged? Well if so he would fight harder to keep her here.
Sophie let out a sigh of defeat. “I’m sorry, Nightshade. I’m just kind of upset, my future wife has decided not to show up in the past couple weeks.”
Cloud would responded with, she won’t marry you, like ever, but he knew how to best keep that hammer away from his face, and it was by letting Sophie be delusional. Raindrop could defend herself if she wanted. It was far from his job.
They all sat and ate cookies for some time. It was fun, warm, and full of laughter. Cloud even caught Nightshade snickering a few times, and trying to hide it. Eventually though, it got late, and when it was late, it was time for bed.
Of course Slate stood up and clapped his massive hands together. “Alright, so, who’s ready for bed? Nightshade, you wanna crash with me?”
Nightshade smiled, nodded and got up to follow him upstairs without another word. Once the pair of them were gone, Cloud looked at Sophie. She looked a little down trodden but he wasn’t going to push his luck. He stood up. “Thanks for having us over, Soph.”
Sophie looked up at him. “What, you aren’t going to ask me to bed?”
He frowned. “I didn’t want to make you feel awkward. I know you really want Raindrop, so I don’t want to-“
She stood up, put her hands on her hips and glared down at him. “Shut up, your going to fuck me and your going to like it, okay mister fox?”
He smiled. “R-really? Without Raindrop? You never want to do that with me without her.”
“Yeah well… maybe sometimes I want to spend time with my other friends, your like my little brother, you need love too right?”
He grinned. “Thanks!”
“The only question is how should I dominate you tonight?”
His grin faded a little. Oh, right, she was one of these kinds of girls. Well… he still was in love with her, so maybe it was going to be okay?
Sophie smiled and fluttered her eyes a few times. “Come on, Cloud. Let’s go get naked.”
It was a whole five minutes later and Cloud found himself naked, tied up by a rope and laying on Sophie’s bed. Her room was at the very least very nice. Pink painted walls, lots of light brown wood furniture, photographs of all them hanging from the walls. Even an entire shrine dedicated to raindrop in the corner.
Sophie herself was naked now. She didn’t have the largest breasts, or hips, but she had more than enough to work with. A little over medium sized in fact. She even trimmed her pubic hair down into the shape of a little heart above her slit.
There was a devious look in her eyes as she stared down at Cloud. “So, how should I treat you today?”
Cloud swallowed. “Gently?”
“Oh Cloud, I’ll always be gentle with you. Well… gentle enough. I won’t break you I suppose… probably.”
She climbed up onto the bed, climbing up over him and leaning forward. Her breasts brushed against his chest, her dripping wet nethers left a trail of hot thick fluids on his legs. Her lips hung just an inch above his own. Hot breath fell down onto his lips.
“Cloud, say it. Say you want me.”
Cloud’s heart was racing. He was all alone with her, he was hers to use as she saw fit. She was going to use him too. “I, I want you. So bad.”
“I could almost believe it, you say it so well.”
She pressed her lips to his and they shared a gentle kiss. Her hand slid down over his chest, over the ropes binding him in place and then down to his shaft. She grabbed it, wrapping her hand around it and holding it tight. Almost too tight in fact. She was stroking it hard.
“Oh, do you need to cummy? Already?”
He groaned. “Sophie, c-could you loosen your grip a little?”
“Hmm… no.”
She began stroking his meat harder. He grunted. It wasn’t quite painful but the fact that she was working so hard at jerking him off really didn’t help. He was trying to hold it back. Yet she was furious with her motions. Stroking his dick hard and fast.
“You better not cum. If you do, I’m going to be upset.”
“I-I’m t-trying, ah, ngh, fuck, Sophie. That’s, too, ah.”
He was trying his hardest to hold it in. Yet she kept stroking him. Harder, faster, and mercilessly. Her own musk was starting to hit him now too. Hi senses going into into over drive. He wast trying to hold it in. Trying so hard. Yet she was relentless.
Just when he was about to pop, she let go of his dick. He found himself thrusting the open air a few times. On the verge of release but not able to get there all by himself. He groaned. “Sophie, please, d-don’t stop.”
“I thought you wanted me to be gentle.”
“I do.”
“But now you want me to make you cum.”
“I do.”
“Which is it, cum, or gentle? Orgasm, or softness.”
He groaned. “Sophie! Please, I need to cum.”
“Then so be it, but you asked for it.”
She grabbed him by his legs, spun him around so that his feet were facing her headboard and then propped him up so that his back was arched, his ass against the side of the headboard and his dick pointing down at his face.
She grabbed his cock once more and began stroking it hard and fast a second time. He grunted and grit his teeth. He was already brought so close to the edge, if he came though, he’d cover himself in his own slurry. He groaned. “Sophie, wait.”
She kept stroking his meat. Pre-cum drizzling out of his tip and falling on his cheek. “Sorry, you told me to make you cum. I’m going to do just that.”
“This is, ah, ngh, mean.”
“Oh hush, it’s hot.”
He groaned. His body was so close to climax, he knew he couldn’t hold it in much longer. Yet the moment he pulled that trigger he was going to regret it.
She moved her free hand to his ass. Her index finger pushed into his anus and spread his ass open to fill him up from the inside. Now being fingered in the ass and stroked hard he knew he had lost.
He groaned. “Cumming!”
His dick throbbed and twitched. His asshole clamped down around that invasive finger. He closed his eyes tight in anticipation. Hot thick spurts of cream shot out of his cock. It splashed against his chest, his neck, and his face. He could taste his own syrup entering his mouth as he grit his teeth trying not to moan. His nose got filled with his own sticky lust and he could only breath in the thick salty scent of his own cum.
She kept stroking his cock, milking every last drop of it out of his cock and down onto his face and chest. She kept stroking it even as it stopped producing milk. Only once she was thoroughly sure there was no more to milk did she let go.
She pushed him over onto his side and he landed twitch a jolt. He coughed a few times, blowing thick globs of sperm out of his nose and coughing a few spits of his own cum out his mouth.
She watched him for a moment. “Oh you poor boy. Here.”
Sophie had been prepared with a towel and was already helping wipe away the cum from his face. Careful, gentle strokes of her hands she cleaned his face up. Even helping him blow his nose into it. Once he was about as clean as his face was going to be, considering he could feel it clinging to bits of his own fur she set the towel aside.
“You did really good, Cloud.”
Cloud coughed. “I wanted to have sex with you. Not cum on my own face.’
She set his head on her naked lap. “There, there. Good boy’s get rewards. Now that you came for me the way I wanted…” She ran a hand through the cum she’d left on his chest, mushing it in and playing with it. “Well… how do you want to have me. My mouth, my ass, or my pussy?”
He blinked and looked up at her. “I can choose?”
“Of course you can. You’re a good boy.”
“Can I have your pussy?”
She blinked. “Why my pussy?”
“I want… I want to be one with you.”
She leaned forward and kissed him on the lips again. “No, its more than that. I can feel it in your body. Tell me the truth, Cloud. Why do you want in my pussy?”
“Because… I… I love you.”
She rubbed her nose against his. The wet sensation of her damp nose felt good against his. “I know… I suppose I love you too. I’ll tell you what. If Raindrop ever marries me, I’ll make sure she and me both marry you too. We’ll be three happily married people.’
“Really?”
“Really. I love you, Cloud.”
She kissed him again. This time deeper. Their tongues met and danced. He could taste her sweet flavor, almost like raspberries. Once she pulled away this time she rolled him onto his back once more.
She climbed over him, then sat on his lap. She brought his tip to her entrance, and he watched as she pushed him into her. She was tight, a lot tighter than expected. She didn’t really use this hole as much as one might thing, and part of it was her love od domination. Once Cloud was inside, she began moving her hips.
He couldn’t’ believe how hot he was already. She was burning up inside, the tightness of her walls hugging his dick was insane. She was groaning loudly, her voice breaking out into cat calls as she dug her claws into his shoulders and rode him harder.
He was gritting his teeth again. “Fuck, ngh, S-Sophie, your fucking tight!”
She moaned. “I k-know. I practiced!” She thrust him harder.
It wasn’t long before Sophie let out one loud scream that filled the room with her noise. Her vaginal walls grew so tight they nearly crushed his dick. Yet it was that moment he unleashed his full burst inside of her pussy. Steamy, creamy, and deep his cum shot deep into her pussy. Filling up her womb with his lust. He kept cumming as they shared the orgasm together.
Only once they were both fully done did she fall over on top of him. Her hands running across her sides as she brought her tongue to his face. Licking his lips and cheeks clean. He laid there, complete, relaxing and letting her lick him clean. It was strange to feel her licking his fur clean like this but it felt right. They had just fucked and hard, so if she wanted to lick him, he’d let her. Considering he was tied up he couldn’t stop her if he wanted too.
The rest of the night sort of repeated this cycle over and over again until they both passed out. It was a pretty good night all things considered.
The end
