Rarity has been a runaway for as long as she can recall with her small partner Blake. These two are very different, each has their own opinion on Navy Night. Blake admires the hero's bravery. Rarity can't stand his stupid smile. 

What doesn't help is Blake and her get caught by the hero on one of their late night scavenging adventures. 

Facing jail time, Navy works a deal with the police: The two must live with his alter ego until stable on their feet. Even though Rarity hates the idea, she goes along with it not knowing that just maybe she was holding out for this annoying hero.
