Lunar Lullaby stopped when she felt a pair of eyes watching her. She was thankful her lavender coat sort of his her in the dark streets. "H-hello?" She called out hesitantly. Dark froze, not knowing if he should step out and reveal himself or not. His look did come of as scary from time to time with him being so big and fierce looking. He then sighed and decided to step out of the shadows anyways. “You shouldn’t be out here so late at night all alone.” He said in a deep, gruff voice. His dark grey pelt gleamed in the moonlight.

Lulu turned to face her follower. She was stunned to see the large bat pony standing in the street. "I know, but I love the night time." She said softly. The young unicorn mare smiled sweetly at him as she lit her horn up to make a soft light to see a bit easier.

The young unicorn mare smiled sweetly at him as she lit her horn up to make a soft light to see a bit easier. Dark blinked as the bright light came from her horn. Once his eyes adjusted to the light he looked at her, ”I just don’t want you to get hurt.” He said, some worry in his voice. He stretched out his large bat wings, “You’re not from here are you?”

Lunar Lullaby shook her head a bit. "I'm not. This is all strange to me and I'm very lost." She took a small step back as he stretched his wings out. "Please, don't hurt me."

Lunar Lullaby shook her head a bit. "I'm not. This is all strange to me and I'm very lost." She took a small step back as he stretched his wings out. "Please, don't hurt me." Dark tucked his wings back in again. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to hurt you.” He said with a smile, “I was just making sure you were okay.” He said. “If you’d like I could show you around. Do you have a place to stay?” He asked.

Again Lulu shook her head. "And I would like it if you did show me around." She moved a bit closer now and dimmed her light. "I'm Lunar Lullaby, my friends call me Lulu for short. What's your name?"

What's your name?" “I’m Dark Storm, but everyone just calls me either Dark or Storm.” He said with a slight laugh. “And you’d be welcome to stay in my guest room if you’d like.” He offered. “Come on. I’ll show you through the main parts of town first.”

"Thank you Dark." Lulu smiled and moved to stand next to him. "The town is so pretty at night, that's why I wander about at this time mainly." She spoke softly.

"Thank you Dark." Lulu smiled and moved to stand next to him. "The town is so pretty at night, that's why I wander about at this time mainly." She spoke softly. Dark began to walk into the main part of town. The streets were practically empty. Dark looked up at the night sky with a happy smile, “it’s certainly is. It’s always so peaceful at night.” He said. “This is the main part of town. In the daytime it’s surpringly busy here.” He explained. He then turned the corner, “and at the end of this street is the market place.”

Lulu looked around with a widening smile. "This is so cool. I would like to see it in the daylight, but I don't like large crowds." She moved closer to Dark as she put her light out.

She moved closer to Dark as she put her light out. “I’m not either, don’t worry.” He said with a smile. He blinked as her light went out. His night vision kicked in. “Let’s see. Where should we go next...” he said to himself. “How about I show you by the palace?” He asked.

"You can do that?!" Lulu's eyes lit up as he mentioned it. "Oh I would love that!!!" She practically bounced on her hooves, but calmed herself down and regained a more calm demeanor.

Dark laughed a little at her excitement. “I can only show you around certain parts of the campus.” He said. He then turned the corner onto another street. He made sure to keep close to her, knowing she didn’t have the night vision he had.

Lunar Lullaby smiled at Dark. "Hey now, you don't need to be so close to me you know. I can see just fine in the dark." She told him as they walked on down the street. Just as she said that she tripped over her own hooves and tumbled over. She laughed as she sat in the street. "Well, I can see at night. Just not now it seems."

Dark’s ears tilted back with slight embarrassment, “Sorry.” He said with an embarrassed laugh. He then stopped and looked at her worriedly. “Just don’t hurt yourself.” He teased.

"I won't. Just taking a lovely fall to see the world faster." Lulu laughed as she got up and dusted herself off. "I keep forgetting that I'm not as good at seeing in the dark like you bat ponies are."

Lunar Lullaby followed after him closely looking at the guards hesitantly and with uncertainty. "I didn't realize how many guards there were."

Lunar Lullaby followed after him closely looking at the guards hesitantly and with uncertainty. "I didn't realize how many guards there were." “It’s just precautionary. Can’t be anymore than Celestia’s guard, right?” He said with a shrug. He began to lead her to the royal garden.

"I see. I'm not used to seeing so many guards around before." Lulu murmured. She looked at the ground as they walked now, looking at the garden.

"I see. I'm not used to seeing so many guards around before." Lulu murmured. She looked at the ground as they walked now, looking at the garden. “I guess I’ve just gotten used to it.” He said with a shrug. “I used to work with the royal guard. But then one day during training I hurt a wing and had to take a while off for recovery. When I got back to join the guard once more I didn’t make the cut. I guess I didn’t meet the expectations anymore.” He said while gazing up at the moon.

"Why don't you see if you can get in now?" She asked. She gazed up at him with a soft look in her eyes. "I'm sure you could get in if you tried again."

If they thought I had the ability to serve then they would have let me in, but they didn’t. Of course they didn’t.” He said while looking down. He then looked st her hopefully. “You really think I could do it?”

She nodded and smiled more. "I think you could. Maybe Luna's guard would suit you if you trained hard enough. I could help you get through it all."

Lulu nodded more. "Of course. It's the least I could do after you are helping me out." She let her smile reach her eyes which also lit up.

Dark could feel himself blushing slightly as he looked into her eyes. He quickly shook his head and cleared his throat, “Then it’s settled.” He said. “Come on. I’ll show you the main court.”

"I look forward to helping." Lulu followed happily, a small bounce in her step. "Is it big? Ooo! Is there stain glass there?" She had lots of questions.
