The stallion let out a shout and charged at the counter Sweetie Belle was hiding behind. The moment he vaulted over was when the unicorn mare popped up and tried to seize control over the SMG. They were half a meter away, looking at each other in the eyes as both poured magic to get a hold onto the gun but what she couldn't realize was that the unicorn had another plan.
In a flash, she felt the pistol she had was levitated out of her grip and was fired point blank at her. Four bullets dug deep into her and she fell. Apple Bloom screamed and jumped over to the stallion to pummel him. He wasn't able to block her attack and was thrown to the wall.
Scootaloo rushed over to the first aid kit on the wall but it was too late. The white unicorn mare was dead on the floor. As for the unicorn stallion, he wasn't able to live for long as he was bucked in the ribs until he died. The two Crusaders mourned over the death of their best friend.
When the police and ambulances came, the duo were questioned but were let go after the survivors vouched for them. The two looked at the their best friend being loaded up in the ambulance and being driven away. When there was nothing for them to do, they left for home.
The Crusaders, being one mare down, become less efficient and was disbanded shortly after. Apple Bloom became a drunk mess and was joined in by Scootaloo. Despite what happened back in the Mini-Store, they had built up a reputation as drunken brawlers.
