When the train finally pulled into the Canterlot station, the first thing they saw was Babs. She looked amazing in her official Cutie Mark Crusader cape, but she looked extremely upset. The train stopped and everyone got off.
"Now," said Rarity, "We're going to the castle to help with the preparation for the fashion show. When you all get done with your 'catching up' come straight to the castle. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Rarity."
As the older ponies trotted away the original three crusaders turn to look at a still depressed looking Babs.
"So Babs, how you doin'?" Asked Apple Bloom.
"I'm doing good, but I can't be a Crusader anymore."
"WHAT?!" Scream the three young fillies.
"Well it's just that I... Just that I... Just that I'd rather show you."
Suddenly Babs took off her cape to reveal a mark.
"A CUTIE MARK!!!!!" The three Crusaders cried in excitement.
"That's amazing!" Said Scootloo.
"Yeah, but it also means I can't be a Curie Mark Crusader anymore."
"Don't fret, Babs," said Apple Bloom, "We Cutie Mark Crusaders had a special saying, 'Once a Crusader, always a Crusader.'"
"It's our way of sticking together." Says Scootloo.
"Staying friends." Said Sweetie Bell.
"You mean, I can still be a Cutie Mark Crusader?!" Cried Babs in excitement.
"Exactly!" Says Scootloo.
"Hey guys!" Says Babs, "I got a great idea! Why don't we start a CANTERLOT BRANCH!?”
