Tumbleweed rolled carelessly through the desert, whistling as he went. As he was coming up over a hill Tumbleweed spotted the cute little Cacti Baby. Tumbleweed was surprised.
Tumbleweed stopped and stared at this strange creature. He had never seen anything like it before! "Good Morning," said Tumbleweed. "Nice weather we're having." The Cacti Baby said nothing.
Tumbleweed tried again. "And how are you feeling this fine day?" The Cacti Baby, she said nothing. Tumbleweed frowned. This strange creature was not very polite. It was beginning to make him mad.
"Ahem!" said Tumbleweed loudly, wondering if the Cacti Baby were deaf. "I said 'HOW ARE YOU THIS MORNING?" The Cacti Baby said nothing.
"Are you deaf or just rude?" demanded Tumbleweed, losing his temper. "I can't stand folks that are stuck up! You say 'Howdy-do' or I'm going to give you such a lickin'!"
The Cacti Baby just sat in the middle of the road looking as cute as a button and saying nothing at all.
"I'll learn ya!" Tumbleweed yelled. He took a swing at the cute little Cacti Baby and his paw got stuck in the needles.
"Lemme go or I'll hit you again," shouted Tumbleweed. The Cacti Baby, she said nothing.
"Fine! Be that way," said Tumbleweed, swinging at the Cacti Baby with his free paw. Now both his paws were stuck in the needles.
"I'm gonna kick the stuffin' out of you," Tumbleweed said and pounced on the Cacti Baby with both feet. They sank deep into the Cacti Baby. Tumbleweed was so furious he head-butted the cute little creature until he was completely covered with needles and unable to move.
He was stuck fast. And there he stayed.
