| Hotaru and Chibi-Usa were playing Babanuki, a card game similar to "Go Fish". Hotaru picked the Joker and lost. Hotaru was a little upset because she seemed to have bad luck and always picked the Joker. The Joker card had a Grim Reaper on it. | In the DeathBuster's hideout deep beneath Hotaru's home, the professor was creating a new daimon from a playing card. He said it would be the most powerful daimon yet. Mimet yawned and looked at her watch. "Professor!" she exclaimed, "It's time for coffee break!" Professor Tomoe said it was his turn to go buy the snacks. |

| After the professor left, Mimet complained that his Daimon recipies were too boring. She opened up the daimon machine and threw in all kinds of books and magazines and junk, then turned the machine on. The machine overloaded and went haywire! | Some strange energy passed through the room where Hotaru and Chibi-Usa were. The whole house shook. When it stopped Chibi-Usa ran to the window to see what was going on. She looked outside and saw the ocean! |

| "Chibi-Usa-chan," said Hotaru, "There
are fish swimming in my dresser." Chibi-Usa discreetly contacted Usagi using Luna P's communicator and told Usagi that she and Hotaru were in trouble. |
Chibi-Usa decided to check Hotaru's other furniture. Bad idea! A lion climbed out of Hotaru's desk! Chibi-Usa and Hotaru fled from the room and found themselves in a moonlit desert. Hotaru's bedroom door vanished from behind them. |

| Professor Tomoe returned home with the
tea and snacks but was unable to open the door.
"What's going on? I'm the owner of this house! Open
up!" The Professor tried to break the door down, but
couldn't. Suddenly he heard a girl's voice behind him. "It seems a dynamic shock has connected this house with another dimension," said Ami. "Sailor Senshi!" thought Tomoe, "Could they have found me out?" |
"Hello, we're here to help, Sir!" announced Sailor Mars. Sailor Moon launched into her speech. "You don't need anyone but the pretty Sailor Soldiers when you're in trouble. If you don't recognize us, we'll punish you!" |

"What are you doing?" Sailor Mars smacked
Sailor Moon on the head. "We're at someone's house.
How embarrasing!" "You don't have to hit me" wailed Sailor Moon. "It's because you're doing silly things!" shouted Sailor Mars. "I was over-analyzing..." thought Professor Tomoe. |
