The Adventures of Kazdin Willow

“Aha! Excellent. Those bottles don’t stand a chance against you!” cried Sunny Smiles as a youthful beauty brought the barrel of her 5.56 mm “varmint” rifle upward to complete the task of unloading the spent magazine and slapping a fresh clip into the chamber. 

 

 

  Kazdin Willow stood back up from her crouching position, her beautiful blue, form fitting dress billowing in the steady dry wind of the Mojave desert. She pointed her face at her month-long friend and the corners of her mouth turned up into a cute cocky grin. 

 

 

  “Yep, those sarsaparilla bottles don’t stand a ghost of a chance.” Kaz replied with a cute Texan drawl, slipping her rifle to her well toned back. She stretched her arms above her head, interlocking her small hands as she closed her eyes. Feeling her back pop from her long day of training, she moaned and opened her eyes again.

 

 

  “So, lovey, seeing as how I beat you, again, I believe its your turn to buy the hootch.” Kaz said, her lips again curling into an evil grin.

 

 

 

  “That is so unfair,” Sunny whined, “you only beat me by one, that has to merit some kinda mercy, don‘t it?”

 

 

  “Nah ah ah,” Kaz chastised with another grin, “you weren‘t complaining when you beat me last week. Now come on, no need to be a sore loser.”

 

 

  “fine,” Sunny said, shoulders slumped in mock defeat, “but we’re gonna have us a rematch.”

 

 

  Kazdin laughed at her friend, causing Sunny to smile. She didn’t know why she let Kaz get to her when she knew that her friend was only kidding. Sunny forced a smile and let her feelings slide right off, in the spirit that Kaz was showing.

 

 

  The two friends walked into the Prospector saloon together, laughing about the number of geckos Sunny had been forced into altercations with earlier that day. To hear Sunny talk about it, she was facing geckos the size of horses, although she did say that they existed farther into the desert. Kaz had never seen one and did not care to.

 

 

 

  “So blue eyes, you gonna ever go find that Benny guy what shot you in the head?” asked Trudy by way of greeting. 

 

 

  Kaz sobered, it had been a month since that fateful day. She had told herself that she was simply healing herself and learning to “walk” again by way of survival, but here she didn’t quite know how to answer Trudy. She figured the truth was just as good an answer as a lie. She sighed as she drank the last bit of her beer down and placed the empty glass on the table to be refilled. 

 

 

  “Tell you the truth, Trudy, no I don’t think so.” Kaz said, nearly a whisper.    

“You feel you ain’t ready?” Sunny asked as she sipped her whiskey, the half empty glass tinkling as she set it down on the counter.

 

 

  “Of course not, I was shot in the head, left for dead. Hell, if it wasn’t for you and Victor I would have died in that hole. Hell no, I ain’t ready.” Kaz fumed. She hadn’t meant to vent her anger at her best friend and her mother figure, but she felt so damn helpless. 

 

 

  The more she thought of revenge, the more Kazdin’s head ached, and not just from the healing scar at her right temple. Somewhere out there, Benny was getting paid and laid with her package, the platinum chip, tucked square into his pocket just like his New Vegas whores were. The very thought brought an ache to Kazdin’s head. 

 

 

  “Look, missy, you‘re tougher than gecko leather. I don’t wanna hear about you not being tough enough to go find that prick. Especially after you helped us get rid of a top of the line tough hombre like Joe Cobb and 6 of his goons, not even two days after you woke up.” Trudy said, a hand on her still well defined hip.

 

 

  Kaz looked at her new, full beer glass and sighed. She smiled back up at Trudy.

 

 

  “Wasn’t like I did it myself.” Kaz replied.

 

 

  “Might as well have. Ain’t one of us any good at fighting. ‘Cept Sunny here.” Trudy explained, causing a chuckle from Sunny .   “And I’m only real good at shootin‘ geckos.”  Sunny scoffed, slightly embarrassed by Trudy’s endorsement. 

 

 

  “Well, maybe.” Kaz allowed, still unsure of herself and her body.

 

 

 

  “Look, as much as it bugs me, youre a lot better than I am at shooting both sarsaparilla bottles AND geckos. You are the quickest learner I ever saw when it comes to the campfire recipes. And the way you handled that swindler by the campfires AND Joe Cobb and his gang, I couldn’t ever doubt you.” Sunny said with passion. 

 

 

  Kazdin simply drank down her beer and lay down 45 caps, her cost for 9 beers as she slowly removed herself from the ever-increasing comfort of the bar stool and staggered toward the door. 

 

 

  “was it something I said?” Sunny asked an equally stunned Trudy. 

 

 

----------------

The fire sat popping softly as the sun set behind the rocky red mountains, casting a deep dark purple hue across the desert rocks and sands. Kazdin’s head swam as she thought the fleeting thoughts of the drunk, which somehow all came together here and there to form a coherent thought as she idly poked at the golden fire with a nearby stick. 

 

 

 

The campfire itself didn’t take very long to make, and neither did the gecko steak that Kaz had enjoyed with a fresh bottle of purified water from the Goodsprings source.

 

 

  Now that dinner had been eaten and water had been drank, Kaz sat down on the log that sat adjacent to the campfire pit, where she continued to gather her thoughts .    A crunch of gravel caught her attention and she brought up her favorite side arm, the 9mm semi-automatic pistol, and pointed the death end into the darkness where the sound had come from. 

 

 

  “Show yourself!” Kazdin shouted into the darkness. 

 

 

  “Well that’s a fine hello to your best friend. I come out here to check on you and you threaten to blow my damn head off.” Sunny said, a smile evident in her voice. Kaz groaned and placed the weapon back onto the log beside her. She mumbled a greeting and moved over to let her friend sit on the log with her. 

 

 

  “If I said anything to hurt you or make you mad, Kaz, I am sorry. That wasn‘t me or Trudy‘s intention.” Sunny said softly. Kaz shook her head.    

“No, its not you.” Kaz said softly, letting her blue eyes settle on the orange flames as they flickered in her wet eyes. It was evident she had been crying. Her shoulder length black hair was mussed in places and her rosy cheeks had tear lines on them. 

 

 

  “I nearly died. Sunny, that bastard nearly killed me. How am I supposed to go after some great Khans and a man who would kill an innocent courier?” Kazdin asked, turning her reddened eyes toward her friend.

 

 

  “I aint the one to tell you your destiny, honey. You have to ultimately do what your heart tells you to do. Ill be right here for you every step of the way though.” Sunny said, smiling her best smile, from which she got her name.

 

 

  “Its good to know youre here Sunny. I don‘t remember much of my past life, but im certain ive never known anyone like you.” Kazdin said, a weak smile creasing her pink lips.    

Sunny wrapped an arm around Kazdin’s shoulders and placed her warm head onto her shoulder. Sunny then placed her chiseled chin on top of Kaz’s hair and stroked her black mane. Kaz knew one thing, she felt comfort in that moment. 

 

 

  The two separated for a second before opening their eyes and shared a smile.

 

 

  “Kaz, I…” Sunny started in a whisper before Kazdin cut her off with a smooth, soft kiss to her full lips, catching Sunny off guard. 

 

 

  The kiss lingered on for seconds before Kaz pulled her warm wet lips away from Sunny’s own. Sunny was intrigued to find a feeling of disappointment creep up her belly to her chest.

 

 

  “Wow, I hope that wasn‘t too creepy or too forward.” Kaz gasped, her crystal eyes wide and a hand clamped over her mouth. 

 

 

  “Umm…no?” Sunny said before allowing her actions to speak louder than her words by grabbing Kaz’s small shoulders and pressing her lips to her bewildered friend’s.

 

 

  The heat quickly burned into a fire as hot as the one they were sitting so close to. Nimble, lithe hands caressed and thin soft fingers rubbed all along the two lovers’ bodies. Kaz took the initiative and unclamped the buttons to the straps of Sunny’s dark brown leather armor. After removing the metal pieces of the chest plate, the rest was a simple matter of very slowly unzipping various clothing restraints. 

 

 

  As for Kaz herself, Sunny found her removal process very much easier, as she unclipped the plastic brown buttons to remove the top portion of Kaz’s breezy pre war dress, the light blue fabric slowly removed from Kaz’s chest by Sunny to reveal two perfect perky breasts, tipped with equally perfect perky nipples. 

 

 

  Kaz’s supple breasts were lighter in contrast to her arms, legs and head’s darker brown color, due to the Mojave’s blazing daytime sun. her breasts and the majority of her torso, however were perfect alabaster white and very smooth and firm. Every inch of Kaz’s body seemed to be perfection personified as Sunny moved her warm lips toward Kaz’s nipples. 

 

 

  Sunny suckled as Kazdin’s low voice became a higher pitched whimper as her thin smooth fingers found Sunnys light red hair. She pulled the band from the back and Sunny let her strands fall down over her shoulders as her lips did wonders and sent shockwaves through Kazdin’s breasts.

 

 

 

  Kaz had Sunny’s leather armor down around her hips at this time as her blue eyes gazed upon the smaller, but still soft and very edible breasts that adorned Sunny’s chest. Kaz brought her hands up Sunny’s body and squeezed the two globes, complete with their brown nipples, causing Sunny to cry out in pleasure. 

 

 

  The rest of their clothes seemed to fly off in their haste, the heat within their own bodies driving them on as they removed clothing and touched formerly forbidden body parts.     Soon enough the two lovers were laid out on a nearby mattress one on top of the other. Kaz lay on her back on the soft mattress while Sunny lay the opposite direction on top of her lover. The two girls’ faces were mere inches apart from their respective sexes as they quickly licked, rubbed, prodded, and thrusted fingers into and out of their hot wetnesses. 

 

 

  Kaz cried out as Sunny found her g-spot with her fingers and her wet lips clamped down on her clitoris. Kaz’s hips tried to buck, but were held down by Sunny’s strong arms. Kazdin tried her best to push her pink tongue in and out of her friend’s pink tunnel even as she went over the edge of her orgasm. 

 

 

  Kaz was nearly unaware while in her own blissful state of pleasure that Sunny had cried out too and released her own musky cum into her lover’s mouth until she had to swallow to keep from choking. Her friend’s climax spurred Kazdin on as well as her beautiful pussy splashed its own hot honey into Sunny’s mouth, as the red haired girl gladly lapped up the raven haired woman’s offering.

 

 

  Twenty minutes later, the lovers lay holding each other under the bright stars of the Mojave sky, covered in Kazdin’s thick sleeping bag as they cuddled and breathed together. 

 

 

  “Kaz?” asked Sunny in her sweet as honey voice.

 

 

  “Yeah Sunny?” Kazdin answered, equally as sweet as she yawned the deep yawn of the well pleasured. 

 

 

  “No matter what you decide to do, no matter what path you take, no matter what road you choose, just know one thing. You are my best friend and I love you. I will support you no matter what.” Sunny said as she cuddled closer to Kaz, who’s eyes were inches away from Sunny’s own.

 

 

  “Even if I‘m not strong enough?” Kaz whispered.

 

 

  “You are.” Sunny whispered back simply. Kazdin smiled as both sets of eyelids fluttered and finally shut, even as the campfire flame died down into nothing more than burning red embers.

 

 

------------------

Her sweat poured down her brow, her hair mussed and sticky as her dark brows furrowed in deep concentration. Her breaths came in quick gasps as she grunted and struggled to get through her hundredth pushup. 

 

 

  Kazdin smiled in achievement as her tired but sturdy arms raised her body before she moved her knees down to rest on the sandy ground so that she could rest.

 

 

  Kaz’s morning workout started at 5:00 in the morning even as she sweat through her semi intense hangover. The sun had risen as 8:00 am came around. 

 

 

  Kazdin looked up and her blue eyes fell upon the emerging figure of Sunny Smiles from the crude and decaying trailer from which she abandoned for the fresh Mojave wasteland air.    She was wearing her hair tied back in a single long ponytail that reached her middle back. Encompassing her lithe body was a pretty but ragged green and brown pre war dress that hugged her curvy body beautifully.

 

 

 

  Sunny Smiles was not accustomed to wearing a dress, but she had found it in a long since abandoned briefcase within the trailer and had delighted to notice that it was her size and fit her perfectly.     Kaz smiled at her friend as she approached and wrapped her arms around the freshly exhausted woman before her. 

 

 

  “Hey Sunny. Love the new look. So much flashier than your usual tomboy self.” Kaz kidded as she gazed upon the flatteringly clingy yet breezy garment. 

 

 

  “Thanks. I was wondering if it was time for a change.” Sunny said, feeling well complimented by the somewhat mysterious Kazdin Willow. 

 

 

  “If it weren‘t so dangerous out here, I would say yes.” Kaz said with a halfway grin. 

 

 

  “But still, behind the safety of a closed door, this is the best look for you.” Kaz continued as Sunny smiled, her green eyes crinkled lovingly as she planted a loving kiss on Kaz’s cheek.

 

 

  “So what‘s the plan today, hon?” Sunny asked as she sat on the log where the dead ashes and semi-living embers of the long forgotten fire lay warm and slightly steaming. She removed a breakfast of gecko jerky and ate. 

 

 

  The sweaty Kazdin joined her and dug into a freshly made Mojave salad with agave sauce and sunset sarsaparilla. She partook sighing as he cold drink bit her throat on its way down. As she munched she talked around her food. 

 

 

  “I was thinking about what you said last night. You and Trudy.” Kaz said. She took some time to gulp her food down before continuing. 

 

 

  “I think its time for me to get back out there, see what‘s going on at least. I reckon I’ve been scared too long.” Kaz said. She took a moment to switch on the radio function of her pip boy. 

 

 

  Like a shooting star You appeared before me Where have you been all my life?

 

 

  All at once I’ve found Someone to adore me Where have you been all my life?

 

 

  Until the moment we met I had no one to cling to To be just everything to To be my own true love

 

 

  If this is a dream Let me keep on dreaming Where have you been all my life?

 

 

   Kaz and Sunny both sighed at the loving words and the moving melody as the song played from her pip boy’s speaker, causing both women to giggled and clasp hands. 

 

 

  “Sunny, I cant help but wonder, what happens if I do get killed? I would never again get to see your face, smell your perfume. Im a bit worried by that.” Kaz said softly as she pointed her blue eyes at her friend. 

 

 

  “You can’t worry like that, or its like Benny‘s already won. You‘re not dead yet and you are truly a top of the line tough girl.” Sunny said with a shrug of her shoulder. She separated a bit to turn her body toward Kaz.

 

 

  “I still don’t have a lot of confidence, but ill take you at your word.” Kazdin said with a weak grin.

 

 

 

  “Babe, do you really think I would encourage you to get back out there if I thought you wasn‘t up for it? I love you, girl. I wouldn‘t send you out there knowin’ that you couldn‘t do it.” Sunny said her tone flattening a little. 

 

 

  As if to illustrate her point, Sunny wrapped Kaz in a passionate embrace. Their tongues and lips met as their eyes closed, the heat of their kiss building like a lit fire burns brighter as it grows.

 

 

  Their mouths separated and Kaz found herself breathing hard not from workout, but from the intense, breath-stealing kiss she just experienced. It was as if Sunny Smiles was trying to inject confidence into her body as if the younger woman’s tongue was a pill that flowed through Kazdin’s mouth and into her body.

 

 

  “I…I love you too.” Kazdin was able to choke out as her breath returned to her in a hurry.

 

 

  “Over this last month we‘ve got to know each other a lot, don’t you think? I'm not going to encourage you to go out into the wild wasteland thinking you‘re gonna die at any minute. I love ya too much.” Sunny insisted. Kaz looked up again, a new passion and fire in her eyes. 

 

 

  Sunny smiled and rested her forehead against the sweaty and sticky forehead of her counterpart. It was as if the spark of ambition and the fire of confidence had returned to the experienced courier who had all of her experience taken away with one blast from a pistol.    

“I can‘t believe it. You’re right Sunny. As scared as I have been, I have let that little fact disappear. Neither you or Trudy would tell me I could if I really couldn’t.” Kaz said as if she had discovered something for the first time. 

 

 

  “That‘s right. Now get yourself out there. Out of Goodsprings and set on your way. I don‘t want to let you go, if I’m honest. But this ain’t about me. Now get freshened up and go. Ill let Trudy know you made your decision.” Sunny said boldly. 

 

 

  “Sunny…will I ever see you again?” Kaz asked hopefully.

 

 

 

  “I would like that,” Sunny said turning back with a halfway grin, “But no, not until you have completed your crazy mission and fulfilled your destiny. Till then, I don’t want to see you back in Goodsprings. ‘less of course it’s an emergency.” 

 

 

  With a cock of her head, she turned her sights back toward Goodsprings and Sunny Smiles left her bewildered friend behind at the campfires. Sunny knew that Kaz wouldn’t be able to see the tear slowly start to trickle its way down her smooth cheek toward her softly trembling lips.
