Robbie Rotten Sailing in Equestria

The next day (which has now moved to the past)

Robbie was ready to set sail. He had a crew consisting of the Cutie Mark Crusaders--who were so clueless of the plan, thinking it was just some scheme to get a funny picture on their flanks--and Pinkie Pie, who just couldn't say "no" to one of her first adventures on a boat. Now, he was going through his checklist.

"Pirate disguis--I mean, suits?"

"Check! But shouldn't we apologise to sis'?"

"Who cares! Is the boat ship-shape?"

"Yes! I mean, check!"

"Food for everyone?"

"Well, we say everypony around here," Pinkie babbled, holding a humongous picnic basket. "Still, check! We got cupcakes for everypony!"

Robbie was delighted! "Gimme, gimme, gimme!" he said, reaching for the basket with outstretched arms, only to be pulled back by Applejack, who had recently boarded.

"Git over here," Applejack said under gritted teeth which quickly let go of Robbie's jacket. "Sorry, but honestly, you're a thin wimp. Y'need brain food." She then stepped aside to reveal a crate which opened up to reveal apples of various kinds. "I got y'all some of the finest apples around." She started to leave the ship, calling over her back, "Now y'all be good ponies, got that? We're all wishin' the best for you."

Once the farmpony was out of earshot, Robbie walked over to the steering wheel. "Time to set sail!"

"Not now!" said Scootaloo. "We need to wait for Rainbow Dash!"

Before Robbie could bother to ask who Rainbow Dash was, he saw a fast stream of rainbow colors headed straight for the ship. It stopped and disappeared in front of the crew, revealing a pony with a rainbow-colored mane in strange clothing in front of him. The costume was all to familiar to Robbie, though.

Dash sported a blue suit with streams of light blue and white, with a large, oval-shaped gem on the chest area. Her goggles, like those worn by the Wonderbolts, were perched on a funny hat on the top of her head, which also had the light--blue color scheme. The way she landed on her feet and had the energy to travel so fast also alarmed Robbie. All he could say was "No. NO. NOOOOOOOO!" before he fainted over the steering wheel.

Robbie slowly opened his eyes to reveal three young foals staring straight at him. They immediately started to ask him hundreds of questions, for example:

"Are you all right, sir?"

"Are you scared of pegasi?"

"Why did you go all crazy in front of Rainbow Dash?"

"Why do you have this picture of a funny guy with a mustache in your pocket?"

"And did you realize that little girl in the background of the picture looks like Pinkie Pie?"

"Where are we going?"

Robbie lifted his head from the ground, groaning, "Dashacus...Dashacus..."

He fainted on the floor of the boat once more, causing the crew to look curiously around at their fellow shipmates.

Late afternoon

Robbie woke up yet again, and was now flustered at the new development. How could he let such an athletic pony to join the crew? He pondered this for a while, before coming to the conclusion that Dash might not truly have the amount of athletic ability to compare to Sportacus, and was simply in a rush. She might even encourage the eating of delicious candies for every meal--or at least won't steal a bottle of soda from him.

With this new thought, Robbie realized that his stomach was grumbling, and he was starving. So he left to the kitchen to see if he could sneak a few cupcakes into his pocket. He sneaked through the door and followed his nose to the crate baked sweets. Then, as hunger got the best of him, he decided to eat on the spot.

He closed his eyes, and moved a cupcake toward his mouth.

He opened his mouth, ready to catch a bite of sweet goodness.

He took the faithful bite.

"OOWW! (belching), yuck! Ouch! What was THAT?" Robbie yelled.

He turned his face from the fruit in his hand to see a pony dressed in light blue staring at him, laughing while stomping her front hoof on a counter nearby. "You really thought-" Dash paused here for effect "-that we would let you raid the dessert crate?"

Robbie frowned angrily, throwing the apple towards the ground. Then he shook his fist at Rainbow Dash. "Why, you..."

"And by the way," interrupted Dash. "We got your lunch waiting in your little room. Nothing but fresh apples and a few carrots for you." Seeing the look on Robbie's unsatisfied face, she added, "Hey, they're not that bad. Think of them as a different kind of candy if it really helps. Like...um..."

"...sports candy," Robbie finished, eyes brimming with tears that he used his own enemy's description of the food group.

"Sure, I guess that works," Dash replied, before leaving the kitchen.

Robbie slammed his head in the wall in anger before passing out yet again.
