The next morning soon came, and so far, there was still no sign of Luna, though Darla told Serena that she would go see Luna as soon as possible, and they soon went outside and saw some of the others as Serena worried about the cat.

"Hey, where's Luna?" Artemis asked.

"You mean she hasn't come yet?" Lita replied.

"I wonder where she is?" Amy commented.

"She was sick yesterday; I hope she's not all by herself somewhere in need of food and care!" Raye said a bit firmly.

"It's okay, guys, I took care of it." Darla told them.

"Then you know where she is?" Artemis asked.

"Yes, I found this nice guy who promised he would take care of her." Darla smiled.

"Well, at least she didn't run away from home." Mina smiled back.

"Yeah." Darla smiled.

"Serena, why can't you be nice to Luna like Darla?" Raye frowned firmly.

"What?!" Serena yelped.

"I'll bet you and your big mouth made her leave!" Raye glared.

"Hey, now, let's not argue." Darla said nervously to the older girls.

Unfortunately, Raye and Serena continued.

"I'm always tired of being accused of acting like an idiot!" Serena cried. "I'm MORE mature than you!" she then blew a raspberry at Raye.

"Get real!" Raye glared before doing the same thing.

"Stop it!" Darla cried out.

Raye and Serena soon stopped their arguing.

"We must look for Luna!" Artemis told them firmly. "Let's split up!"

"Right!" Darla and the Sailor Guardians nodded in agreement.

The group soon split up to find Luna.

"Don't worry, I know where she is!" Darla reassured Serena and Rini.

"Well, let's hope she still is where you say she is!" Serena replied.

"I'm sure she's still there," Darla said. "Ooh..." she then said, shivering suddenly.

"You okay?" Serena asked.

"I don't know why, but I just got a chill down my spine." Darla replied as she and Rini followed her.

"Brr." Rini shivered.


Little did they know, this was because of a force outside of Earth who was going to make things quite chilly for everyone. Darla looked around as she tried to remember the way back to Kakeru's apartment.

"Um, okay, I think it was down this way." Darla said.

"You don't know?!" Serena and Rini asked.

"Uh, sure I do, I just gotta remember!" Darla said nervously.

"That's good." Rini said.

Eventually, before they knew it, it started to snow.

"It's snowing!" Rini smiled to that.

Everyone else began to look surprised and amazed that it was now snowing outside.

"Cool," Darla smiled. "Wait, is it close to winter already?"

"Well, it IS winter break..." Serena had to admit.

Someone soon shot down from the sky.

"Who's that?" Darla wondered.

It seemed that a pure white woman emerged from the skies before she soon shot energy blasts towards the people, freezing them solid.

"Whoa!" Darla yelped.

The women smirked as she continued to freeze innocent people while Darla, Rini, and Serena looked concerned. The other Sailor Guardians and Artemis soon saw this on the other side of the streets.

"What is that?!" The girls yelped.

"This looks bad." Darla said.

Amy soon brought something out and she transformed into Sailor Mercury.

"Oh, I know what this means," Darla soon said as the others slowly went to transform after her as she soon took out her bag. "Now, let's see, I had my Moon Staff around here somewhere." She then took out her Moon Staff and beamed as she soon twirled before transforming herself into her own Sailor Guardian uniform.

Serena and Rini were the only ones that hadn't transformed yet. The older three Sailor Guardians soon saw what was going on from inside of a cafe and rushed outside immediately before transforming themselves.

"Serena! Rini! What're you waiting for?!" Darla asked them. "Transform!"

Serena and Rini ran off.

"Or just run away..." Darla sighed.

The snow woman was about to shoot her with an ice blast.

"Darla, watch out!" Mina cried out as she tried to protect the younger girl.

Darla soon used one of her attacks to counter the ice blast. The snow woman laughed wickedly.

"Ugh, I don't know who you are, but you're really annoying!" Darla glared at the snow entity.

"You alright, Darla?" Mina asked the younger girl.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Darla promised.

"That's good." Mina smiled.

Serena and Rini kept running until they distracted the snow woman and hid away, then transforming.

"Oh, thank The Moon Princess." Darla whispered in relief.

"Moon Prism Power!" Rini proclaimed.

"Moon Cosmic Power!" Serena added.

"Nice." Darla smiled.

The snow woman continued to chase some innocent people.

"Hey, Ice Lips!" Serena called out with a glare, getting her attention instantly. "You sure have nerve! Our people have warmth and heart and won't tolerate the cold chill from you!"

"So look out!" Rini added.

"We're Sailor Scouts!"

"And we stand for love and justice!"

"I'm Sailor Moon!" Serena proclaimed.

"I'm Sailor Mini Moon!" Rini added.

"So cute." Darla whispered from 'Mini Moon'. She soon saw that it was her turn to proclaim who she was.

Serena and Rini looked to her.

"Huh? Oh! Yeah!" Darla chuckled bashfully. "Silver Crystal Power Make-Up!" She soon transformed into her Sailor Scout uniform. "I'm a special Sailor Moon from America!" she then glared to the snow woman.

"And in the name of the Moon, we shall-" Serena began.

"Chill your jets!" The three soon proclaimed together.

The snow woman soon did something like a ballerina twirl, making copies of herself appear before they soon surrounded the three girls.

"Did not see that coming." Darla said.

"Can't say I did either," Rini pouted. "How'd she do that?"

"Excuse me, pardon me, hello!" Serena whimpered nervously. "They're starting to make me dizzy!"

"You're not the only one." Darla added.

"Please stop the ride..." Serena said uneasily.

"Sailor Moon, don't let yourself get dizzzzyyyy!" Rini cried out as she soon got dizzy as well.

"I feel like I'm going to be sick!" Darla gulped. "Someone make them stop spinning!"

Serena soon squeezed her eyes shut to return to her concentration before opening her eyes as she raised her Moon Staff. "Okay, Freezer Freaks! Stop right there!" she then demanded.

The copies of the snow women soon stopped in place before disappearing in thin air.

"Huh?! Augh! They're not listening to me!" Serena shrieked.

"These are bad guys." Darla said.

Serena yelped and ducked down as one woman nearly grabbed her, though it made her drop her Moon Staff. Darla went to go grab it, but she looked up in horror as a snow woman was right in front of her. The spirit giggled and was about to attack the three of them, until a rose was soon thrown and shot into Serena's Moon Staff.

"That rose." Darla smiled.

They soon saw someone coming, but it was someone they weren't really expecting. They saw in the sky a jolly man with his sleigh of reindeer which only meant one thing.

"St. Nick?" Serena asked.

"Santa Claus?!" Darla and Rini added in disbelief.


However, it was a zeppelin float carrying Santa and his sleigh, showing it to not be the real Santa.

"Merry Christmas, and-" The man smiled as he stood up before removing his hat, beard, and coat to reveal to actually be Tuxedo Mask. "A Happy New Year!"

"Tuxedo Mask!" Darla cheered.

"Winter for us is a long and difficult season, but that's okay, we expect it!" Tuxedo Mask glared at the winter spirit. "Your evil, permanent winter, however, is wrong!"

"Ya don't say." The snow woman shrugged innocently before shooting her powers against him with a smirk.

Tuxedo Mask luckily jumped out of the way and tossed a spinning top at her face.

"Hey! Nice shot!" Darla laughed. "Can't say the same for the snow woman."

"Sailor Moon, your turn!" Tuxedo Mask called out to Serena.

"Right!" Serena nodded.

Darla then gave Serena her Moon Staff back once it was safe.

"Moon... Spiral... CHARGE!" Serena called out once she took her Moon Staff back and her attack soon hit the female.

The snow woman soon let out a shriek before she seemed to disintegrate, turning into brief snowfall and the frozen people were soon set free.

"Heh, I was already frozen alive, I don't need a repeat of that, thank you." Darla chuckled to herself.

Later on, they saw Luna.

"Oh, back to normal, it's as if nothing ever happened." Rini smiled.

"I'm glad that's over." Serena added.

"All right, let's regroup." Darla suggested.

"Agreed." Rini nodded.


They soon came out of their Sailor Scout uniforms, meeting up altogether again.

"Well, at least those snow people are gone." Darla said as she buttoned up her coat a little more as it felt colder outside.

"Yeah, that's a good thing." Rini added.

"Where are those new strange enemies now anyway?" Mina soon wondered.

"Yeah! Where did they come from and what do they want?" Lita added.

"What ever they are, we better take them seriously." Amara suggested.

"Agreed." Darla nodded.

Setsuna and Michiru also nodded.

"Luna!" Rini beamed.

"Oh, you found her?" Darla smiled to the youngest Sailor Scout.

The others rushed to see the black cat and they soon found her wandering down the streets, looking like she was all better.

"Luna, you're better!" Darla smiled.

"Luna!" Serena added as she hugged the black cat. "I've been so worried!"

"Say, where'd that ribbon come from?" Darla then wondered.

"Oh, you mean this one?" Luna blushed before shaking her head a bit. "It doesn't matter! What really matters is that an unidentified comet is getting closer to the moon!"

"How can you be so sure?" Darla asked.

"I found out last night." Luna replied.

"Hmm... I'm not sure about this... I think I might need to do some research." Amy said, not sure about a comet.

"Okay." Darla said.

They soon walked off together and they soon made a fire together to keep warm and cook something.
