Midnight

Spa…

On a glittering alien world, an attendant brings a telephone to Donna, the ginger putting the call on speakerphone. She is lounging by the pool, wearing a bathrobe.

Jared is looking after Qrow with Team RNJR, "It's okay. We're gonna treat it as much as we can."

"We said, no." Donna said, angrily.

Public telephone...

"Sapphire waterfall. It's a waterfall made of sapphires." The Doctor said.

Spa...

"This enormous jewel, the size of a glacier…" The Doctor said, his voice over the phone.

Public telephone...

"Reaches the Cliffs of Oblivion, and then shatters into sapphires at the edge. They fall a hundred thousand feet into a crystal ravine." The Doctor said.

Spa...

"I bet you say that to all the girls." Donna said, annoyed.

Public telephone...

"Oh, come on. They're boarding now. It's no fun if I see it on me own. Four hours, that's all it takes." The Doctor said.

"No, that's four hours there and four hours back. That's like a school trip." Donna said, her voice over the phone.

Spa…

"I'd rather go sunbathing." Donna said.

"And, um, we have to take care of my Uncle Qrow." Ruby said, placing her hand on top of Qrow's. "We can't come with you, sorry."

"You lot be careful, that's Xtonic sunlight." The Doctor said, his voice over the phone.

"Oh, we're safe. It says in the brochure this glass is fifteen feet thick." Donna said.

"All right, I give up." The Doctor said, his voice over the phone.

Public telephone...

"I'll be back for dinner. We'll try that anti-gravity restaurant. With bibs." The Doctor said.

"That's a date." Donna said, her voice over the phone.

Spa…

"Donna, it's not a date." Jared said, sipping on some milk tea. "If it's only Ren and Nora that's a couple. And me and Ruby, that's technically one."

"You're right. But Doctor, you know what I mean. Oh, get off." Donna said, annoyed.

Public telephone…

"See you later." The Doctor said.

"Oi." Donna said, her voice over the phone.

Spa…

"And you be careful, all right?" Donna asked.

"Nah." The Doctor said, his voice over the phone.

Public telephone...

"Taking a big space truck with a bunch of strangers across a diamond planet called Midnight? What could possibly go wrong?" The Doctor asked, hanging the phone up.

Spa…

"Oh, I don't know what to do now." Donna said, looking at Jared. "Do you know anything about spas?"

"Um, nope." Jared said, still sipping on the milk tea. "How about we hop into ALO?"

"ALO while we're in one of the most beautiful spas in the universe."

"Yeah."

"Okay. Pass me an Augma."

Jared tossed Donna one of the devices, and the super temp put it on her head, "There you go. Ruby, since we're in a spa. There could be something to help him."

"Maybe." Ruby said. "Have fun. I guess."

"Link Start." Jared and Donna said, after the both of them closed their eyes.

ALFheim Online…

"Wow!" Donna said, looking around. "This place looks like it came out of the Lord of the Rings. Or out of Harry Potter!"

"We are dealing with magic and fairies after all." Jared said, laughing a lot. "Activating your wings will take some time."

"Wings?"

"Yeah. In this virtual reality world. We can fly."

"Fly? For real. You're not kidding, right?"

"Nope." Jared said, looking up at the floating Aincrad. "If only Leafa was on to help me out with you."

"No, we are not asking Suguha for help. I can do this."

"About that thing with Jeanne d'Arc."

"I know. You needed a shock factor. To get rid of the detox. But why didn't you want to kiss me?"

"Because 1, it's wrong. And 2, I get that she's amazing."

"Um, well, the Doctor did kiss Madame de Pompadour. So I guess the both of you are even."

"We are even!"

"Good. So what is there to do around here?" Donna asked, walking towards Jared.

"Oh, I don't know. Taking down bosses. Going up Aincrad." Jared said, as Kirito and the others landed right in front of the two time travelers. "Kirito. Asuna."

"Hey." Kirito said. "You brought Donna."

"Yeah, well, you know. We're at the planet Midnight. Made of diamonds."

"Midnight? That sounds so cool!" Silica said, happily.

"Who else is with you?" Asuna asked.

"Team RNJR." Jared said.

"And Team RNJR is…" Lisbeth said.

"Right. I forgot I told you guys. Since they weren't at the Library with us."

"Are you gonna tell us or not?"

"It's Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Lie Ren, and Ruby Rose."

"So, Team RWBY is still split up." Asuna said.

"Yeah."

"Are you gonna show me around or not?" Donna asked.

"This is gonna take some time to getting used to." Kirito said. "With how similar Donna and Lisbeth are."

"You saying I'm like Donna Noble?" Lisbeth asked.

"That's exactly…"

"We're two different people! You can't just say things like that."

"Lisbeth, calm down." Donna said. "It's fine. I see it more as a compliment, really."

Kirito and Asuna's home…

"So, this is your home." Donna said, looking around. "A log cabin. In the woods."

"Yeah." Kirito said. "It took us all Christmas Eve to get it back."

"Hang on, you two lived here before?"

"Of course. When Sword Art Online was still a death game." Asuna said.

"This place gives a home-y feel." Jared said, smiling. "Maybe I should take up your lifestyle for once. Get a cabin, live in the middle of the woods. Near a farm, the simple life."

"You might like it."

"Or you could find it boring." Kirito said.

"But it's all you. In the end."

"It's Ruby." Jared said, loading up a hologram of her in the room. "Hey. What's up?"

"Uncle Qrow isn't doing so good." Ruby said, looking straight at Jared. "And the Doctor, he came back. He's scared of something."

"Jared. You've been hiding something from me." Donna said. "And we've only been here for maybe three to four hours."

"The Doctor, he encountered something." Jared said, sitting on the couch. "Something he couldn't beat. And he didn't know much about."

"What does this thing do?"

"It copies you then it drains you. The worst part of it is, um, it only copied the Doctor. But he's fine, at the cost of the hostess of the trip sacrificing her life."

"Come back here right now!" Nora said, a hologram of her appearing on the dashboard. "I swear to god. Come back here…���

"She's right." Ren said, a hologram of him appearing on the dashboard too. "We need you."

"Kirito, we'll come back here someday." Jared said, happily. "I promise you that."

Jared and Donna loaded up the menus and they logged off, disappearing in a flash of light.

Spa…

Donna greets the Doctor with a hug, "What do you think it was?"

"No idea." The Doctor said.

"Do you think it's still out there?" Donna asked.

"Well, maybe." Jaune said.

"They might be." Ruby said, sadly. "Uncle Qrow is getting worse."

"Yeah, well, there's nothing I can do about it." The Doctor said. "Aura. And Semblances. They're completely unknown to me. Like what I saw on the vehicle."

"You made it back safe." Ren said. "That's all that matters."

"Well, you'd better tell them. This lot." Donna said.

"You really should, Spaceman." Jared said, sadly. "My day with Donna got cut short. Tell them that this place isn't safe."

"Yeah. They can build a Leisure Palace somewhere else. Let this planet keep on turning round an Xtonic star, in silence." The Doctor said.

"Can't imagine you without a voice." Donna said.

"Neither can I." Jared said, letting out a sigh.

"Molto bene." The Doctor said.

"Molto bene." Donna said.

"Allons-y!" Jared said, excitedly.

"No, don't do that. Don't. Don't." The Doctor said, looking between Donna and Jared.
