Darien was standing in front of a mirror gazing into its depths. He said it was the only thing that made him feel relaxed.  Sailor Moon tried to persaude him to come away from the mirror but Darien smacked her to the ground. All the girls were shocked. "You're horrible!" cried Sailor Mini Moon as she ran to Sailor Moon's side.	Nehelenia's image appeared in the mirror and Darien reached forward as if trying to embrace her. "It's true, the seal is broken!" exclaimed Sailor Mars. Sailor Saturn and the other Sailor Soldiers joined up. Nehelenia began to lecture Sailor Moon. "While I was sealed away in that dark and cold place, you were outside, surrounded by your loved ones, basking in the sunlight and laughing at me!" Sailor Moon denied it, "I never laughed at you!" Nehelenia demanded silence, "I will bring everything you love into destruction - like this!"	Nehelenia's hand reached out from the mirror and grasped Darien solidly. She drew him, still captivated, into the mirror with her.  Sailor Moon tried to follow him but simply struck the face of the mirror. "Flame Sniper! Aqua Rhapsody!"  Mars and Mercury tried to attack Nehelenia but their attacks rebounded off the mirror. "My dark power can't be stopped by such child's play!" sneered Nehelenia.
		"This man is cursed by my nightmare," gloated Nehelenia, "Your voice can no longer reach him. By tomorrow dawn his heart will be completely mine.  Can you find me and take him back before then?"
Sailor Moon called for everyone to lend her their power. The Sailor Soldiers concentrated their energy on Sailor Moon and she powered-up into Eternal Sailor Moon transformation. Nehelenia was unimpressed and summoned a group of crystal monsters to attack the Sailor Scouts. Eternal Sailor Moon held up her sceptre and its light disintegrated Nehelenia's minions.	Eternal Sailor Moon faced Nehelenia. But then, her transformation crumbled and reversed back to Super Sailor Moon.  "Why?!" cried Sailor Moon, "Why can't I keep fighting in that form?" Sailor Moon fell to her knees. Nehelenia wore a smug expression. "Look at this Sailor Moon," She caressed Darien's face. "Your beloved man lies in my arms.  I want you to feel all the sorrow, pain and despair in the world!" Nehelenia turned and carried Darien away into the depths of shadow within in the mirror. "Please stop," pleaded Sailor Moon, "don't take him away."
