“There is no gold at the end of the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad.. only cupcakes”

Rodney awoke to a loud thump on his front porch.

“What’s this?” Rodney sputtered. “Why is there a plain white cupcake on my front porch? I had ordered a green one with green sprinkles for St. Patrick’s day, Not a  white one!”

Wait, who are you?

“We come bearing sad news, Rodney!” It was the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad, and they looked pretty somber.

Someone has stolen all of the Rainbow Sprinkles in all of Sprinkle Town! THERE ARE NO SPRINKLES! They’re all gone!

Rodney was taken aback. “You neverbashfulwithbutter.comhttp://www.neverbashfulwithbutter.commean, THIS is the cupcake that I ordered from the palace bakery? There simply are no coloured cakes or sprinkles anywhere on this planet?” He asked.

“No” The Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad replied. “You’ll have to come with us! We’re going to talk to the Cupcake Oracle to see what can be done!”

So Rodney followed. He did not know where he was going, but hoped that at the end of the day, he’d have a green cupcake to bring home to his family.

Finally, they arrived. The Cupcake oracle was one of the last decendants of the ancient clan of Crab Cake. They had shrunken in size as their population dwindled, and he was now merely a Crab Cupcake.

“Why have you come to see me, Rainbow ninjas? What questions do you have for me?” The Cupcake oracle asked.

Rodney spoke up “There are no sprinkles in sprinkle town. Someone has run off with them! ALL OF THEM! It’s St. Patrick’s day, and there is no green cake to speak of! This simply will not do!”

The cupcake oracle was angered by Rodney’s tone. For this, he informed Rodney if he was to find the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad’s cupcakes, and have any hope of ever finding any sprinkles or green cakes again, he would have to find “a little green man” and he would then know where to find what he desired.

…And he would have to go alone.

The Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad got comfy…

…And Rodney set out on his Journey.. The hunt for Sprinkles.

It wasnt long, maybe a mile down the road, where Rodney happened upon a green cupcake. Excited, he thought maybe no one would notice if he took a bite…

..But out of nowhere, a little green man jumped up! This was the little green man the Crab cake spoke of! He told Rodney that he would have to find the place where the two white cupcakes are in a row, before he would find anything of colour, especially rainbows.

So Rodney set out again on his Journey. High and low he looked…

Everywhere there were green cupcakes and white cupcakes, but no two white cupcakes near each other…

He had all but lost hope…

Finally! He found it!!! SUCCESS!

..but something seemed missing..

He hurried back to the home of the crab cake and gathered up the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad, he had found their cupcakes!

Excited, they all got reacquainted with their muffins.

Except the limey. His cupcake was missing. “I’m sorry Limey! I wonder who has YOUR muffin…” saidRodney, disapointed.

“I know who did this” said the limey, cryptically.

Rodney decided to follow the limey, just to be sure he didnt do anything drastic.

“LOOK LIMEY! LOOK AT ALL THE GREEN CUPCAKES!” Rodney was about to jump into the forest of green cupcakes.. Just as the limey yelled “DONT DO IT RODNEY!”

…out rushed a gang of other green ninjas. The leprechaun squad..

…They were the ones responsible for stealing all the rainbow sprinkles and coloured cupcakes. It was all their fault!

But before Rodney could say anything, they attacked!

Good thing Rodney was much bigger than them! He reached down and nabbed a cupcake, making his way back to the field of rainbow cupcakes to meet up with the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad.

“I got your back Rodney!” Exclaimed The limey..

After a short hike, and what seemed like forever, they made it back to the field of Rainbow cupcakes. Rodney placed the cupcake on the ground and helped the limey onto it. “thank you Rodney” said the limey “I appreciate your helping us. we couldnt have done it without you.”

And the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad were finally Reunited with their cupcakes.

Rodney left, saddened. Sure, he helped the Rainbow Sprinkle Ninja Squad find their cupcakes, but he was still without his green cupcake for St. Patrick’s day. He figured he would just have to make do with the white one on his front porch..

Just then, Rodney was approached by the little green man. the second oracle that the crab cake spoke of.
“what are you doing here” Rodney inquired
“I’ve been watching you Rodney. I saw your dedication to helping my people. The limey… he’s my great great grandson. You helped him, and so you must be rewarded. I will grant you one wish, Rodney. Choose wisely..”

And with that, The little green man hopped off his cupcake and gave it to Rodney. With a small handful, Rodney smiled, and took a bite.

HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY EVERYONE!

P.S. the rainbow cupcakes were Baileys irish cream boozemuffins with vanilla icing, and Rodney’s green muffin was lime flavoured with lemon icing. The white muffins were vanilla with lemon icing.
