当海盗们一登上他们的飞艇，就掀起了一阵骚动。为了让这艘船做好准备去迎接新的旅程，除了斯鸹博负责擦洗船头船尾甲板区域以外，船员们还要去清洗五彩羽毛的船帆，给莉克斯的厨房补充新鲜的食物还有补给，并向气球中装够热空气燃料。西拉诺船长也马上开始了她的工作，分配船员们各自的任务，并给他们这艘珍贵的飞艇每一处都去搞例行的安全检查，其实他们之前再给风暴大王的舰队打工的时候得到唯一好处就是日常严格督促的例行船艇维护。

云宝黛茜笑道：“我真不敢相信我竟然能说服你们跟我一起去找寻好运石榴石！”她吃力地跳上甲板，已经感受到了她妈妈给她准备的鞍包重量，里面估计是装了十份老面包土豆意面三明治还有她还是学生的时候画的潦草藏宝图。“几乎所有天马都说这只是个学校传说。”

“你难道不想去对它好好探索一番吗？”西拉诺船长伸出了爪子，把云宝抱到了船上。“想象一下，成为找到石榴石的小马那种心情！”

确实没错，能找到消失了几百年的宝石并归还给云中城那想法确实让云宝黛茜感到一阵兴奋。

她承认道：“是啊，我想那肯定会酷极了。”她已经开始想象之后他们一起把复制品换成真宝石的盛大仪式了。“但这也并不意味着这传说一定是真的。”

“但你的冒险家朋友可能会知道，对吗？”西拉诺踏上了通往船顶方向盘的阶梯，她摘下了帽子，把头上的羽毛抚平。“她叫什么名字来着？”

“天马无畏。”云宝黛茜回道：“如果还有谁可能会知道好运石榴石的消息，那一定是她了。”

虽然和新朋友们一起出发开启一场新的冒险是很棒，但云宝黛茜开始担心起来。无畏可不是那种喜欢一大批陌生小马们突然出现她家门口的小马，更不用说是那些希望能得到帮助去找寻神秘宝藏的海盗们了。前不久在梦晶村发生的事几乎一度让她想退休停笔，永远放弃自己的冒险之旅，目前的无畏对于大多数全新的寻宝之旅是持着谨慎的态度，她还是喜欢去独自一马冒险。不过如果是为了云宝黛茜的话，无畏也许会愿意帮帮忙。

“船长！”穆雷大副出现在西拉诺身边，举起爪子行礼道：“船艇已经是最佳状态，她随时都可以启航了！”

“谢谢你，穆雷。”西拉诺点点头。“干得好！现在其余的无赖们全都在各自的岗位上就位，让我们把她送回属于她的广阔天空吧！”

“遵命！”穆雷开始喊着向其它船员们下达指令，突然云宝黛茜感觉到地板在隆隆作响，飞艇终于离港了！确切来说，是离开她父母的家。

风哨子和趵虹站在门口，冲着海盗们和他们的女儿挥蹄告别。“祝你们冒险顺利！” 趵虹朝他们喊着：“要注意安全啊！”

“如果天气凉了的话，记得要穿毛衣啊！”风哨子也跟着喊道：“如果你们有经过礼品店的话，别忘了帮我带个盘子回来！”

穆雷和博伊尔齐声喊道：“我们会的！”同时他们也在船头朝他们挥着爪，“谢谢你们的款待！”他们渐渐喜欢上云宝黛茜的父母还有他们给予的溺爱感。他们肯定会很想念那些美味的三明治的。

云宝黛茜也小跑来到船边，冲她的爸爸妈妈挥着蹄子：“再见了！我们很快就会回来的！”

斯鸹博跳到了挂着一堆铜铃的绳子上摇了起来，当当当！这就是信号。西拉诺船长叫了起来：“伙计们，扬帆，起航！”飞船那五彩般羽毛张开了，带着整艘船驶向湛蓝色的远方。

There was a flurry of activity as soon as the pirates boarded their airship again. A ton of work had to be done to ready the vessel for a new journey. Aside from Squabble’s duty swabbing the poop deck, the crew had to clean the feathered sails, restock Lix’s galley with fresh food and supplies, and fill the balloon with hot air. Captain Celaeno set straight to work, barking orders at  her  shipmates  and  doing  routine  quality  checks  of  every  inch  of  the precious boat. Practically the only good thing that had come out of their time working for the Storm King’s fleet was the strict and streamlined routine of their ship’s upkeep.
“I can’t believe you convinced me to go with you to try to chase the Good Fortune Garnet!” Rainbow Dash laughed. She trudged up the gangplank, feeling the heavy weight of the saddlebag her mother had packed for her. It had about ten pasta-and-potato sandwiches on sourdough inside, along with the scribbly treasure map from her school days. “Pretty much every Pegasus says that it’s only a schoolpony myth.”
“Wouldn’t you like to know for sure, though?” Captain Celaeno reached her claw out and hoisted Rainbow Dash onto the deck. “Imagine being the pony who finds the garnet!”
In truth, the idea of returning the gem to Cloudsdale after hundreds of years did give Rainbow Dash a twinge of excitement.
“Yeah,  I  guess  it  would  be  pretty  cool,”  she  admitted,  picturing  the ceremony in which they replaced the fake gem with the real one. “But it still doesn’t mean that the legend is real.”
“But your adventurer friend might know, right?” Celaeno climbed up the steps that led to the ship’s steering wheel. She removed her hat to smooth down her head feathers. “What’s her name again?”
“Daring Do,” Rainbow Dash answered. “If anypony knows something about the Good Fortune Garnet, it’s definitely her.”
Though it felt awesome to be setting out on a journey with her new friends, Rainbow Dash began to grow nervous. Daring Do wasn’t the type of pony who loved big crowds of visitors showing up at her door, let alone random visitors hoping for help hunting for a potentially fictitious treasure. And after the recent events in Somnambula that had almost led her to retire and hang up her adventuring hat for good, Daring Do was likely to be wary of taking on too many new treasure-hunting jobs. She loved to work alone. But maybe, for Rainbow Dash, Daring Do might do a favor.
“Captain!” First Mate Mullet appeared at Celaeno’s side. He held his claw to his forehead in salute. “Ship’s in tip-top shape. She’s ready for departure!”
“Thanks, Mullet.” Celaeno nodded. “Great work! Now, get the rest of the scalawags to their stations and let’s get her back in the open skies where she belongs.”
“Aye aye!” Mullet shouted, and began delegating orders to the rest of the crew. Suddenly, Rainbow Dash felt the floorboards rumbling. The ship was finally leaving port! Or leaving her parents’ house, rather.
Windy Whistles and Bow Hothoof stood on their porch, waving to the pirates and their daughter. “Have fun on your adventure!” Bow called out. “Be safe!”
“Don’t  forget  to  wear  a  sweater  if  it  gets  chilly  out  there!”  Windy reminded them. “And if there’s a gift shop, bring me back a plate!”
“We will!” shouted Mullet and Boyle in unison as they waved from the bow of the ship. “Thank ye for everything!” They’d grown quite fond of Rainbow Dash’s parents and all their pampering. They sure were going to miss those delicious sandwiches.
Rainbow Dash trotted up to the edge of the ship and waved her hoof at her mom and dad. “Bye! See ya soon!”
Squabble jumped up and jangled the rope hooked to a giant brass bell. DING-DONG! It was the signal. “Up, up, and away!” whooped Captain Celaeno, and the brilliantly colored feathered wings of the airship spread open, carrying the ship off into the blue unknown.
