A Vent-Ey Start

Some days later, both Maud Pie and Sedimentary prepared to go out on a date. At the same time, they simultaneously got ready to go. A few minutes later, the two earth ponies met up with each other.

"Hello, Maud," Sedimentary said as soon as his girlfriend showed up. "Morning, Sedimentary," Maud Pie said as soon as she saw her boyfriend, "Are you ready to go?" "Why yes I am!" Sedimentary answered in a cheery voice, "So let's get going then, shall we?"

"Why of course," Maud Pie agreed. "Great!" Sedimentary exclaimed. "Yes," Maud Pie replied in her usual dull tone of voice. "Right," Sedimentary said in response.

And so the two ponies set off together to wherever they planned to go that day. "So what first?" Sedimentary asked. "Well," Maud Pie replied. First, however, they came across a rocky cave. "Well," said Sedimentary meekly, "Home sweet caverns? Caverns sweet caverns?" He then chuckled at his girlfriend.

"Limestone dissolved by strong acids in water," Maud Pie explained, "I've learned it in Rock geology class." "Yes," said Sedimentary, "That is true." "Yes," said Maud Pie, "You'll always learn new things."

After staying in the caves for a few minutes, the two ponies then ventured off to an unknown area near the caverns when suddenly, they entered a certain area and they could see strong gases bursting out from the vents. The two ponies were amazed.

"Wow," said Sedimentary in awe. "That's hydrogen," Sedimentary explained, "It's extremely flammable! And I'm not a natural gas expert!" "Yes, Sedimentary," Maud Pie agreed, "But I can tell that the rocks in the ground, those the formed the vents can withstand hydrogen."

"Ok," said Sedimentary. The two ponies decided to avoid the hydrogen place and they eventually, made it to a lush forest. "Don't you think it's lovely?" Sedimentary asked. "Yes," Maud Pie answered.

"Even it's not all about rocks?" Sedimentary asked. "It's fine," Maud Pie replied, "It's okay, Sedimentary, and the important thing is that you're here with me." "Ok," said Sedimentary.

"Sedimentary," said Maud Pie, "You're everything to me now." "All right," said Sedimentary, "So, shall we continue on together?" "Why of course," said Maud Pie.

And with that said, the two ponies continued to walk together to wherever they are going to go to next. "Hopefully," Sedimentary thought to himself, "It's not so extreme."
