Becoming Cure Night Star
When Venus is attacked by Kyo, she realising that Venus is protecting something important and wonders what it is. She runs over and tells Kyo to piss off which he doesn't. Yoru punches him in the stomach making him cry out in pain but only to make a See Saw Image. Yoru freaks out but only for a little bit and kicks it but it hit's her instead and sends her flying. Before she hits the ground, a purple glow surrounds her body making her surprised. A phone-like device appears in her hands, making her even more surprised and Venus appears telling her that she is a Pretty Cure and to say ''"Pretty Cure! Naisho Power!" ''which Yoru does. She transforms and finds herself as the legendary warrior, Cure Night Star!

Finding out her Mission
After her first battle with Kyo, she follows Venus behind a tree. She is told that there are three other cures and that she must find them and one more mascot called Prayer to find. Yoru groans and says she doesn't need help but Venus says she will. Venus then tells her about the Dreaming Shards and how they are scattered all over Earth and she and the other cures must find them. Yoru asks if she knows where they are and Venus says that she has no idea where they are causing Yoru to groan for the second time.

Meeting Naoru for the first time
In Episode 3, Yoru is searching for a Dreaming Shards with Venus and sees something sparkle on the ground. She runs towards and bumps into a girl with blonde hair. She realises it's Naoru Sen'yaku and starts walking away when a hand falls on her shoulder. Yoru turns around ready to slap her, but to see Naoru step away from her slap. Naoru laughs and asks if she is okay and Yoru nods her head. Naoru walks off saying goodbye leaving Yoru alone with Venus to search for the Dreaming Shards.

Cure Elixir
When Yoru, transformed as Cure Night Star, is fighting Kyo's Frisbee Image she is sent flying into a tree. She get's up slowing and runs over to give the Image a beating but is given a beating by the Frisbee Image instead. She groans and doesn't get back up and watches the Frisbee Image fly towards her. She braces herself for the attack when someone steps in front of and put's her arms out to protect her. Yoru is shocked that it is Naoru that she tells her get out of the way but Naoru doesn't move. When the Image is a few metre away from the Yoru and the Naoru, a yellow light surrounds Naoru causing the Frisbee Image to fly backwards and Yoru whisper that she is a Pretty Cure. She watches Venus tell Naoru that she is a cure and to say "Pretty Cure! Healing Power!" and Naoru transform into Cure Elixir.

Relationships
Venus - Yoru has a great friendship with Venus and often worries about Venus. She thinks of Venus as her older sister because she is always looking out for her and worries for her as much as Yoru does back.

Naoru Sen'yaku - Yoru didn't have a great friendship with her at first since she really didn't want to be her friend. When she got to know Naoru, she accepted her as a friend a member of My Wish Pretty Cure.

Luna Aidama - Like Naoru, Yoru didn't want to be friends with her. She became friends with her quite fast after she befriended her. She likes studying with her and Naoru.

Prayer - Yoru finds Prayer a bit silly and weird. She thinks she is adorable and says that she Prayer will make great partners in crime.

Etymology
秘訣 (Hiketsu) - The term 秘 (Hi) means "secret", which would fit well because of her powers and how she keeps things to herself, while the term 訣 (Ketsu) means "Word practice", which would fit well with how she likes to read and write stories. Her name can be roughly translated to "Secret Word Practice".

ヨル (Yoru) - The term Yoru (ヨル/夜) means "night" which would fit well with her cure name, Cure Night Star.
