Splishy Splashy Hill Zone Act 1
The Adventure Begins
Rainbow Dash's adventure starts in the Splishy Splashy Hill Zone, an area given the name from it's beautiful coastal setting, rolling hills, and it's everlasting feeling of summertime. Although the zone is not a completely new sight for Dashy, she had before come across a very similar area that had the zone's striped grass tops, checkerboard patterned ground, and loop-da-loops, but Splishy Splashy Hill was still a refreshing area regardless. As Rainbow Dash set off forward to soon come across her first robot; a ladybug like mechanical creature that charged at her with its razor blade talons, named motobug. Dash simply smirked as she tucked into a high speed summersault maneuver, a little move she named the spin attack, and the impact smashed open the robot. Bong! And out popped a little bunny rabbit that hopped away in excitement of its freedom. Dashy continued on ahead to a bridge over a waterfall, and out from under the bridge robotic fish, called chompers, would jump up awaiting prey to snatch. With carful timing, Rainbow Dash was able to take out the robot fish with an airborne spin attack, and like the robot before, small animals would pop out of the robots upon destroying them. Moving on, Dashy leapt onto the upper hillside, spin jumping into a hornet badnik, called buzzer, then ran into a spring launching her upward and onto the upper path. Dash then sped through a loop formed from the ground, and launched into the air off of an incline where she finds herself faced with a chain of blue spherical robots, named bubbles. Grinning, Dash thought to herself Alright, this is a good chance to try out the homing attack! With the fastest of reflexes, Rainbow Dash honed in on the robots one by one, curling into the spin attack in midair.
Dashy continued onward leaping onto the hills and into badniks until she smashed open a rock revealing a spring launching her up onto the higher route, leaping off more hilltops until she spun her way through a tunnel, and burst through the checker patterned wall, with debris flying everywhere. Before she knew it she was launched off a spring and into a bubble enemy, "Yeow!" Dash screamed as she took a smack to the chest from flying into bubbles, and then she fell down to the ground before getting over the impact. She landed between to loops in the ground, "Alright Rainbow Dash, just shake it off and keep moving," and so she did. She crouched down and began another old trick she had made up years ago; the spin dash, she then revved up in her ball form and, after charging for a bit, she took off rolling forward at high speeds through the loop and off the upward slope and continued through another loop that lead downward into another spring and into another bubble chain.
After making it across and dashing up the hill, Rainbow jumped back in surprise as a new badnik suddenly faded into her sight, a chameleon like robot with the ability to camouflage itself, a newtron. The badnik shot a plasma orb at Rainbow Dash, she tried to evade it, but there was no room for her to dodge, and she ended up getting stunned, meanwhile the ground beneath her crumbled and she fell once again. Only to be sprung back up, looking to get back at the robot, but it had vanished. After kicking the dirt in frustration, Dash continued on, speeding up the hill, and being sprung back to the cliff above, rolling down a winding tunnel, and soaring into the air, over a buzz bomber, and finally launch back into the air, homing attacking another buzz bomber, and onward to the finish. Up ahead was a giant gold ring, Rainbow Dash instinctively jumped into the hoop and was engulfed into the ring itself.

Rainbow Dash then found herself in a flash of light into a maze, with a kaleidoscope sky colored red. The area around her was a bunch of color changing blocks and circles that look like peppermints. Dash recognized this place, she had been here before, or somewhere like it in a previous adventure while trying to stop Eggheart, this was the special zone where the Elements of Harmony could be found. She actually had no idea what the gems really were, and wouldn't know until her first adventure with Twilight Sparkle and Nightmare Moon. There was one major difference with this zone compared to the last though, last time the maze itself would move on its own, this time Rainbow Dash had to control the rotation of the maze instead. She had entered the zone in her spin attack position, it was as if the zone itself made her. She fell down the through the maze guiding and turning it as she went, collecting rings as she went through, which was another difference, she soon found out why, eventually she came to a gate that opened when she collected the amount of rings required. Finally she came to a room that had a shining object, sure enough it was one of the five gems. Once she traversed through the room quite easily, Dashy grabbed the red gem and then she was instantly teleported by the light out of the special zone.

20 Percent Cooler
The gem had warped Rainbow Dash back into Splishy Splashy Hill Zone, and so she moved on with her journey. She advanced with a spin dash only to jump and grab onto a vine that she began to swing on, and fling off. She landed on top of the small cliff and decided to take the lower route this time. After bashing a few more badniks, Dashy came across a speed booster machine that would move her along in a spin dash. "A speed booster? I don't need a stupid speed booster! I AM speed!" she said with a smirk and hopped over the contraption and did her own spin dash again, to run through a corkscrew formation and into another loop into a cavern to grab a vine, flinging her into a bubbles and spring out of the cave. After bopping a few more badniks, swinging on a few more vines and flying through more corkscrews and loop-da-loops, Dash soon found herself in another cave, where she flew by some more traps and came across another giant gold ring portal, and once again entering the special stage.

Dashy found herself again in a special zone, this time the sky was colored blue, and like before she traversed through the stage, controlling it with her mind. This time she found a new obstacle; diamond-like objects that shrunk upon contact, but they didn't really hinder nor help much. She soon successfully reached the end of the maze collecting the blue gem.

Splishy Splashy Hill Zone Act 3
Celestial Sunset
As Rainbow Dash reentered the zone, she realized that a lot more time had passed than she thought, it seemed that Princess Celestia had begun to bring the sun down, as she was greeted with a beautiful orange clouded sunset. Rainbow Decided there wasn't time for sightseeing, she had a feeling that she was closing in on Dr. Eggheart. She spin dashed her way out of the cave and off the ramp, to be met with zip line. Dashy immediately latched onto it with her homing attack, and was sent speeding to the other end. That was this area's gimmick, zip lines. After smashing a few rocks, hitting a few springs, zipping across zip lines, chaining bubbles, and smashing through a wall or two, Dashy found her way to the end in no time.

Splishy Splashy Hill Zone Boss
Showdown with Dr. Eggheart
There he was, the fat stallion with the wicked mustache, hovering down in his egg shaped hover craft (complete with little airplane wings). "There you are tubby! Long time no see. I missed kicking your flank, where've ya been?" Dash said tauntingly.
"Out planning my latest revenge scheme, seeing as how you left my last ones in ashes." Replied Eggheart.
"Well hey, what can I say? I've got a nag for saving the day."
"Well, we'll have to do something about that nasty little habit now won't we?" said Eggheart with a devilish smile.
"Bring it old man!"
Eggheart's hovercraft opened up at the bottom to drop down a ball attached to a chain. He then began to swing the ball back and forth attempting to hit Rainbow Dash. All she did was crack a smile and almost started laughing, "This thing? Really? You can't be serious?" She said as she very easily dodged the slowly swinging checkered ball. She then began to deal damage to Dr. Eggheart's hover car. "Come on doc, you can do better than this. I'm a big girl now, I can take more than this!" Dashy taunted.
Eggheart then made a new move; he began spinning in the air, swiping the ball through the air and crashing down onto the ground. "How's that!?" He chuckled, only to see that Dash had once again easily dodged this attack as well.
"Meh.." Dashy replied, and she smashed into his craft one more time and then.. BOOM! The chain broke off and the hovercraft exploded.
Dr. Eggheart then started flying away in what remained of is horribly wrecked ship yelling "Curses! I'll make you pay for that!"
"And I'll let you know when pigs fly!" Dash shouted back at him. It was then that she spotted a capsule near the battle scene.
Dash flew over and stomped on the button on top, popping open the shell, and releasing the contents within. Dozens of tiny bunnies and blue birds went hopping and flying away in there excitement of freedom. But there was something else inside the capsule, one of the kidnapped ponies. This one was a pegasus that had a very light yellow coat, with a pink mane, and pink butterflies for a cutie mark. Rainbow Dash actually knew this pony, she had known her since she was a little filly in Cloudsdale. "Fluttershy!" Dash said, surprised to see her old friend.
"Oh! Rainbow Dash, thank you for saving me," Fluttershy remarked in a very sheepish tone as usual.
"Do you have any idea what Eggheart's planning?" Dash asked the shaken pegasus.
"I.. I don't know.. All I know is he's up to his old tricks, I don't think he has anything special planned this time.."
"Yeah, maybe he's just out for an old run of the mill revenge scheme. Still, He's had nearly ten years, I doubt he couldn't think of something, better be on your hind legs. Say, you wanna come along with me on this adventure, for old time sake?" Rainbow Dash asked, but mostly to be nice, she was really afraid that Fluttershy would just slow her down.
"Oh, no thank you, I.. I'd rather just stay in Ponyville.. Where it's safe… and take care of the poor animals… I mean.. If it's all the same to you…"
"Yeah, it's fine." Dash responded trying not to sound too relieved. "Well I'd better get a move on, catch ya later!" she said as she flew off in Dr. Eggheart's direction.
