Sweetie Belle and Applebloom board the Canterlot train.
"I'm really excited to meet Princess Celestia and Princess Luna," says Sweetie Belle.
Applebloom shakes her head and replies, "Princess Sweetie Belle, Princess Luna IS Nightmare Moon. You've already met her."
"Sorry. But why did you call me 'Princess Sweetie Belle?' "
"Because you are an alicorn for 3 days."
"Oh yeah!"
"We are approaching Canterlot," announces the conductor.
The two crusaders hop off of the train.
"Look. There's the castle. We need to get there as fast as possible," says Applebloom. The crusaders gallop as fast as their little hooves can carry them to the castle.
"HALT!" yells one of the royal guards.
"Please let us in. We need to see Princess Celestia as soon as possible. It is about Nightmare Moon. We've found out some information about Nightmare moon. You can follow us in if you want," explains Sweetie Belle. The royal guards look at each other, them move their spears. The crusaders enter, the royal guards close behind them. Two new guards fly in and close the doors.
"I've never been in the castle before. It's beautiful," says Sweetie Belle in awe. Applebloom nods her head, speechless.
The royal guards lead the crusaders to a door. Sweetie Belle magics open the door and walks in.
"Princess Luna! B - but Nightmare Moon is out there! How are you here? Where you defeated?" stammers Sweetie Belle. Princess Luna turns toward her.
"Sweetie Belle, I am not Nightmare Moon this time. She is someone else. And where is Scootaloo?" explains Princess Luna.
That makes NO sense whatsoever, thinks Sweetie Belle.
Sweetie Belle lowers her head and replies, "You - I mean, Nightmare Moon attacked her. Scootaloo is in Ponyville Urgent Care right now." Princess Luna gasps.
"Is she all right? Should I come to Ponyville? I can go pack," Princess Luna asks.
Sweetie Belle replies, "Scootaloo is in stable condition. There is no reason for you to come to Ponyville. Unless you really want to, of course."
Princess Celestia turns away from the window. Her jaw drops open when she sees the crusaders' necklaces.
"Sweetie Belle, Applebloom? May I please see your necklaces?" asks Princess Celestia.
"Sure. By the way, Scootaloo has the red one," replies Applebloom. Princess Celestia magics the necklaces over to her and examines them. Her eyes widen.
"These are the Elements of Life. My little ponies, keep these on at all times. They shall help you defeat Nightmare Moon. They can also offer you a little bit of protection," explains Princess Celestia as she gives the elements back to the crusaders.
"Cool! Now we have elements just like our sisters did before they returned them to the Tree of Harmony!" exclaims Applebloom.
"Goodbye, crusaders. I wish you luck on your adventure," says Princess Luna.
"Bye, Princess Luna! Bye, Princess Celestia!" says Sweetie Belle. The royal guards escort the Sweetie Belle and Applebloom outside. The crusaders make their way to the Canterlot smoothie shop. They order their smoothies and sit down outside.
"The Elements of Life. They're so cool!" exclaims Sweetie Belle.
"Look at the time. It's past midnight," Applebloom points out. Sweetie Belle glances at the clock.
"We'd better catch the train back to Ponyville, or we'll be stuck her until the next train comes!" replies Sweetie Belle. The crusaders gallop to the train station and board the train.
"Good bye, Canterlot," says Sweetie Belle.
