//------------------------------// // A Pirate's Life for Me // Story: The Adventures of Captain Feathersword and Pipsqueak the Pirate // by Probably Minion //------------------------------// The next morning, the girls and Pipsqueak woke up to the sound of Captain Feathersword knocking on their door and saying in a friendly and cheerful voice "Good morning me hardies! Wakie wakie, we've got some treasure hunting and pirate business to take care of today!". "Why does have to wake us up so early? It's only like 7." said Scootaloo who was barely awake. "Yeah I know but I think we should wake up because I think Captain Feathersword really needs us." said Sweetie Belle. Once they got up, they went up to the main deck where Captain Feathersword and Henry were waiting for them. "Ok me hardies, last night an intruder somehow got on the ship but thankfully I was able to defeat that sucker and lock them up in me closet over night. This morning our task is to make the intruder walk the plank. Henry, bring out the prisoner." said Captain Feathersword. Henry came out with the prisoner who was a grey pegasus with a gold mane and tail. "Please have *derp* mercy on *derp* me! I just *derp* don't know what *derp* went wrong!" said the prisoner. "Ok c'mon Captain! That's Derpy Hooves! She don't mean no harm to anyone." said Applebloom. "I'm sorry Applebloom but that's just how we pirates roll out here on the open waters. My rule is if you're not invited on my ship, you must walk the plank with no exceptions." said Captain Feathersword. Captain Feathersword then turned to Pipsqueak. "Pipsqueak my hardy, show the prisoner to the plank." said Captain Feathersword. "Ay ay Captain!" said Pipsqueak. Pipsqueak walked Derpy over to the plank and cut open the ropes that were tied onto her with his sword. "Allow me to demonstrate how to make someone walk the plank. Once the prisoner is on the edge you just give them a good shove. Sweetie Belle, would you be kind enough to do the honors?" said Captain Feathersword. "Uh sure....." said Sweetie Belle. Sweetie Belle walked up right behind Derpy, shoved her with all her might, and Derpy fell into the water. "Well blow me down! That was probably the best and easiest plank walkin' I've seen in ages!" said Captain Feathersword. "Hey we may be small but Applebloom, Scootaloo, and I have hearts as strong as horses." said Sweetie Belle. "Yeah you can say that again. Alright let's have breakfast and them turn our attention on navigating those rough waters." said Captain Feathersword. "Ay ay Captain!" said the younger ponies.
