A guard for the royal princesses, Night Runner is escorting the extravagant princess of the night to Ponyville.

While she pushes her way through the crowd, she is dragged off by a pony and told some very disturbing news. The princess has disappeared. Night sets her sights on finding the princess by any means possible.

As she waits in the hospital, she meets one of her recruits that she trained when they joined the royal guards. Private Silver Star. She found comfort in talking with him. She later meets up with him only to discover this weird feeling she has towards him since she met him in the hospital. Not sure on how to approach this, she tries to win him over by her usual actions only to realize they may not be the best way to get a pony to love you.
