Enchantress is still mad at Supergirl for disrupting a magical ritual which should grant her omnipotent magical power thanks to a singular cosmic alignment. Such an alignment will not occur again during the next millennium, but Enchantress plans to trick Supergirl into restoring the Earth's Moon to the ideal position. Enchantress travels to Miami Beach and magically challenges Supergirl to stop her from completing the ritual again. As heading towards Miami, Supergirl starts suspecting June Moone and the Enchantress are the same person. When she arrives at the beach, she finds Enchantress encased in a protective magic bubble, so she flies out of orbit and moves the Moon slightly out of orbit. Supergirl then suspects she has been tricked, but it's too late to stop Enchantress from forming another protective shield around the Moon and starting the ritual. As Supergirl flies back to Miami, an energy beam from a red sun bounces off the Moon and bathes Enchantress. Enchantress doesn't want to stop the ritual, even though Supergirl warns that her actions have caused a tidal wave. Supergirl can't stop the massive waterspout, but Enchantress causes it to reverse direction and assures she'll stop it for good once the ritual is done. Supergirl doesn't trust her so she tricks Enchantress into believing her spell has set Miami Beach aflame. When Enchantress summons a freeze blast, Supergirl sucks in the magical blizzard, uses it to freeze the waterspout into a giant iceberg before it strikes the Bahamas, and hurls the iceberg into space, cutting off the light from the red star. When the ritual fails Enchantress falls down, but Supergirl catches her and takes her back to New Athens Experimental School. Supergirl suggests Enchantress to stop playing with uncontrollable forces and warns she knows her secret identity before flying away. Nonetheless, Enchantress erases the knowledge of her secret identity from Supergirl's mind, thinking someday she'll learn how to master magic and through it Supergirl.
