During one day at class, Matsumi overhears a few fellow students talking about how there’s a rumor about a ghost haunting the halls of the Mugen building at night. Matsumi asks Masaki and Saki about it and the two confirm it. Masaki then challenges Matsumi to try and get a picture of the ghost that very night and while Matsumi at first refuses, pointing out that there is no way to get into the building at night, Masaki teases her enough that she agrees to it, handing her a skeleton card key which should allow her in.
At dinner, Matsumi asks Haruka and Michiru about the ghost, since they went to the older mugen building before the new one. Haruka confirms about the ghost, describing it in lurid detail, which causes Matsumi to get creeped out, but Michiru admonishes Haruka for scaring the younger girl, telling her that there was no ghost and that there is nothing to worry about. Though Michiru is curious on why Matsumi asked, Matsumi quickly changes the subject.
That night, Matsumi sneaks to the building along with Freya, who berates the girl for agreeing to this. Matsumi doesn’t want to be thought a coward, however, and manages to break into the school.
It’s completely dark and Matsumi wanders the halls. A few times she thinks she sees movement but figures it’s her imagination. She then accidentally runs into a skeleton, which causes her to nearly scream but relaxes when she figures out what it is. Now starting to panic, she slowly backs away, only to turn and run face to face with Usagi, the two girls screaming. Matsumi and Usagi settle down when they realize who they are and Matsumi sees the other girls there as well. Matsumi learns from Minako that they had heard the rumor as well and that they wanted to check it out. Luna and Artemis thinks the whole thing is foolish, though Artemis gets freaked out for a moment when he spots a spider crawling across his nose. The girls continue to explore the school and freeze up when they suddenly hear eerie laughter. Slowly turning, their flashlights suddenly catch a face in the shadows, causing Usagi, Matsumi and Minako to panic, while Makoto and Rei get defensive and Ami tries to analyze it. The girls are suitably surprised to find Sean Collins in front of them. Sean reveals he had overheard Usagi and Minako talking about the plan to go to the school and followed them to make sure they were aright. Rei is annoyed by this, telling him they could take care of themselves and they don’t need him to be spying on them. Matsumi tries to calm Rei down a bit and then stops. The girls suddenly go silent, staring right behind Sean, who becomes confused by this reaction. Turning, Sean summons his flame, only for it to illuminate a hollow doll like figure, who laughs in his face. The teenagers panic and start to flee the area, the doll following after them. In their panic, the group gets separated
In one of the science rooms, Matsumi, Usagi and Minako run in and manage to barricade themselves. They try and catch their breath, only to freeze up when they realize the doll thing is floating right past them. Matsumi and Minako cover Usagi’s mouth to keep her from screaming. As the thing passes by, the three girls relax, only to turn around and find the thing staring right at them, causing the girls to jump through a nearby window and back into the hall.
Sean is lighting his way along the hall, followed by Orion and Freya. Freya is adamant that they find Matsumi and Orion comforts her. Sean tries to call out for the girls and then stops, spotting what looks like Rei close by. Running over to her, he tries to ask if she’s alright, only for her to turn around and reveal herself to be a ghostly looking girl. Startled, he flees, followed by the two cats.
Ami, meanwhile, has found what seems to be a hidden elevator and wonders where it leads. Rei is annoyed that they got separated, only for Makoto to notice the rest of the group running their way. Before Ami, Rei and Makoto can react, the rest of the group barrels into them, triggering the elevator which plummets down.
Crashing to the ground, the girls manage to climb off Sean, who they accidentally crushed. They’re amazed to discover a disused laboratory and Ami immediately recognizes it as the work of Professor Tomoe, something which confuses Matsumi, who explores the lab, before discovering a pile of papers. Reading them, Matsumi discovers the truth: the doll had been used as a prototype for the Daemon project and in fact had once belonged to a student who had died in an accident. Sean wonders if that was the girl he saw. Rei then wonders if they were to change the Doll Daimon back into a doll, it could fix things. Before they can find out anything more, the doll creature appears and attacks. Transforming, the sailor senshi and Saturn knight do their best to try and keep away from the monster, trying to defeat it but not destroy it but find their efforts make it even more difficult to defend themselves. Finally, though, Eternal Sailor Moon manages to get the best of the monster and purifies it, changing it back into a doll. Just then, the mysterious ghostly girl appears and collects the doll, thanking the senshi and knight for freeing her, before vanishing from sight.
Back at Hirakawa Shrine, Matsumi is a little annoyed that she didn’t manage to get a photo of the ghost, but Makoto points out that they did manage to help the girl ghost pass onto the other side. Ami agrees that they did a good job, even if it was a little scary. Usagi laughs and proclaims that there is no way she was ever really scared of the ghost, Minako agreeing that it really wasn’t all that scary, Matsumi stating the same thing. The door suddenly swings open, causing Usagi, Minako and Matsumi to scream in panic, only for Sean to tell Matsumi that he got a call from Haruka and Michiru, wondering where she was. The other girls start to laugh a bit at the three panicked girls, who soon can’t help but join in the laughter. They are unaware of the ghostly girl watching them and smiling before fading away.
