"Come on Ruby! You'll look amazing!" Yang said as she put the finishing touches of dye on her hair while Blake tied the yellow bow of Yang's dress.
"Seriously Ruby the others are waiting!" Weiss said as she put on her white opera gloves and adjusted her wings.
"It will be okay Ruby, I'm not as happy with my costume either." Blake said as she adjusted the fake cat tail pinned to her and grabbed her pumpkin pail.
Seriously, how Yang convinced her to go as a Neko-Maid she will never know.
"Okay…" Ruby muttered as she walked out of the bathroom to reveal herself in a black and red dress with similarly colored opera gloves, shoes, stockings, and the finishing touch, a set of devil horns, wings, and a tail.
"You look so adorable!" Yang said as she grabbed her and hugged to her chest, unknowingly suffocating her.
"Uh… Yang." Blake said as she pointed to the flailing 'devil'.
"Oh shit!" Yang cried as she released her sister, who cried "Sweet air I love you!", as she began to take gulps of air.
Before Weiss could chastise them, she was interrupted by a knocking on the door. Sighing, she said "Come in!" as the door opened to reveal team JNPR.
"Hey guys!" Nora yelled as she walked into the room. She was dressed in a long-sleeved chain mail shirt that was covered by an armored black vest. She also wore black pants, boots, a red cape, and a silvered winged helmet. Finally in her hand she held a hammer that resembled a mallet.
"Nora be careful with that." Ren said as he walked into the room. He wore a formal green Chinese robe with black and magenta dragon designs on it. He also wore a similarly colored hat with beads hanging off both sides of it.
"Weiss, you look amazing." Jaune said as he walked into the room while Weiss rolled her eyes. Jaune wore silver knight's armor with chain-mail underneath complete with his sword and shield, albeit painted with temporary paint.
"Hello again!" Pyrrha said as she walked into the room last. She wore armor similar to her regular attire except a bit more bulky and had armor covering her neck and shoulders. Also it was mostly bronze, gold, and blue. Completing the outfit was a bluish-black cape and a bronze and gold helmet with blue a black plume on top.
"So are you four ready?" Ren asked.
"Yeah let's go! The party starts in twenty minutes!" Yang said as the others left the room while Weiss locked the door.
On their way to the main hall where Beacons Annual Halloween party was held they began to talk and complement each other's costumes.
"Is that real silk?" Weiss asked as she felt Ren's robe.
"Yup straight from the worm and best makers." Ren said while Weiss gained an impressed look.
"You look adorable Ruby." Pyrrha said as she looked at the younger girl's costume.
"Thanks…" Ruby muttered as she looked at Pyrrha's costume. "I like yours to, the cape really pulls it together."
Giving a small thanks Pyrrha was about to talk to Blake, but was interrupted when Nora cried "What's that?!"
Looking towards her, their eyes widened when they saw a red glow coming from the DTD arena.
"Who the heck is in there?" Jaune said as the others wondered as well.
"We should investigate!" Nora said as the others looked at her.
"Nora I'm sure that it's just someone-" Ren started but was interrupted when Nora ran towards the arena, not even bothering to listen.
"Nora!" Ruby yelled as the other girl continued towards the arena.
Sighing, Ren said "Come on, let's go get her." as the others followed him.
Arena
"Weird… Where did it go?" Nora muttered as she looked around for the red glow standing in the arena where the fights took place.
"Nora!" She heard a voice yell as she looked back and saw her friends.
"Don't do that again." Ren said as he walked up to her and gave her a light chastising.
"Hey where did the glow go?" Jaune said as the others noticed a lack of glowing as well.
"Who cares? Let's just get out of here and to the party." Yang said as the others agreed.
But before they could leave the arena the barriers suddenly appeared and closed off the exit.
"What?!" Jaune yelled as the arena fully closed them in "Nora did you do this?!"
"I didn't touch anything!" Nora said as she looked around.
Looking up, Blake's eyes widened as she saw what was above them. "Guys." She said.
She was ignored and again said "Guys."
"Maybe it was team CRDL" Ruby said as the others thought about it.
"GUYS!" Blake yelled as she finally got the others attention. "Look up."
Looking up, their jaws dropped at what they saw "You have got to be fucking kidding me." Yang said.

Floating above them was a floating long, tattered, black cloak with white flame like patterns on the sleeves. But that was it; it was a literal floating cloak with nothing else, only its two-five fingered- hands were visible but even they seemed to be wrapped in the cloak. As it began to descend they were able to notice two last details. The first was a glowing red orb that floated in the lower section of the cloak and the Grimm mask that floated where the face should be.
"G-gh- A Ghost?!" Jaune yelled as he jumped into Pyrrha's arms.
"Get a hold of yourself man!" Weiss said as she looked at Jaune "It's obviously a data construct just like the others!"
"It's gonna attack." Ren said in a deadpan tone as multiple dark-fireballs appeared at the Phantoms side.
Getting out of Pyrrha's arms, much to her disappointment, Jaune unsheathed his sword and expanded his shield "Well Ren, I know that you have StormFlower hidden in your robes just in case, but what about the girls?" He said as Ren took out his guns.
"We got it." Blake said as she reached into her pumpkin-pail and pulled out Crescent Rose.
"What." Jaune said flatly, as Blake continued to pull out the other girl's weapons from her tiny pail.
Pulling out Gambol Shroud last, Blake said "We're always prepared for emergencies."
Shaking off his shock from seeing Blake's display of hammer-space usage Jaune said "Well that's a good thing! Because I don't think this thing wants to wait any longer!"
Indeed as soon as the others were armed the Phantom launched its fireballs at the students, forcing them to disperse in groups of two.
"Nora! Ren! Suppressive fire!" Jaune yelled as the duo nodded and began to shoot at the Phantom.
"Blake! Yang! Go help them!" Ruby yelled as the two nodded and joined Ren and Nora in suppressing the Phantom.
When Ruby and Weiss joined Jaune and Pyrrha they took a few moments to think of a plan. "Anyone have any ideas?" Jaune asked as the Phantom focused on the four shooting at it and fired lightning bolts at them.
As Weiss and Pyrrha analyzed the situation Ruby looked at the Phantom and noticed, while any bullets or grenades that hit the cloak did nothing, it seemed to wince, for lack of better term, when they hit the orb that floated with the cloak.
"Guys! Hit it in the orb! That's its weak spot!" Ruby yelled as the others nodded and fired at the orb, forcing the Phantom to begin flying and dodging while firing icicles and lightning bolts at them.
Suddenly, they all heard a demonic voice in their heads that said "DOOM." as the Phantom made, what seemed to be a small clock made of purple fire in its hand. Then, faster than any of them could see, it threw the clock at Ren before he could dodge.
"Gah!" He yelled as flames appeared on top of his and took the shape of the number 12.
"Ren! Are you okay?!" Jaune yelled in concern for his friend.
"I'm fine! Just keep shooting it!" Ren yelled as he ran towards the Phantom when it descended closer to the ground and began to slice the orb with StromFlowers blades.
Seeing an opportunity, RWJP (Ruby, Weiss, Jaune, and Pyrrha) moved towards the Phantom and engaged it in melee.
Angered, the Phantom surprised the students by swiping at them with its hands, revealing that despite being covered by its cloak, its claws were actually razor sharp.
"Eep!" Ruby squeaked when she was forced to duck under its claws before she countered by attacking the orb with her scythe.
"Uh… Guys!" Nora yelled in a concerned tone "Look at Ren!"
Turning to look at Ren everyone's eyes widened when the twelve that had previously floated above him was now a ten. "What happened?!" Yang yelled, as Weiss used her glyphs to launch herself at the orb.
"I don't know! It just changed on its own!" Nora yelled as she shot grenades at the icicles the Phantom fired.
The ten that floated above Ren suddenly changed into a nine as the others began to grow more concerned.
"I think- I think it's a count down!" Weiss said as the others eyes widened.
"Can we stop it?!" Jaune yelled as they were forced to dodge another barrage of lightning bolts.
"I don't know!" Weiss yelled as she used another glyph to increase her speed.
"Gah!" Yang yelled as she was struck by a lightning bolt.
"Yang!" Ruby cried out in concern.
"I'm fine! Keep going!" Yang yelled as her semblance began to activate.
Eight minutes later the battle was still raging and the Phantom managed to hit Weiss and Jaune with the clock technique two minutes ago, leaving their counters at ten and Ren's at one.
"What's gonna happen?!" Nora yelled as she hit the orb with her hammer.
"I thi-" Ren started, but was interrupted when his counter hit zero, causing him to fall to the ground paralyzed. "I-I can't move!" He yelled as the others eyes widened.
"AND THAT CHILDREN, IS THE POWER OF DOOM." The voice said again, causing the others to look for the voice while Weiss and Jaune looked at their clocks with concern.
"Who said that?!" Pyrrha said as she raised her shield to block an icicle.
"WHO DO YOU THINK?!" The voice said as the students looked at the Phantom. "NOW YOU UNDERSTAND… NOW THEN, LET'S SEE IF THE OTHER TWO CAN BEAT THEIR TIMERS." The Phantom said as it swiped at Yang knocking her aside.
"Ruby, Jaune and I have eight minutes left! We have to hurry and make sure no one else is hit with Doom!" Weiss said as she fired a blast of energy at the Phantom.
Nodding, Ruby had Nora and Yang go on the offensive as they began to rain blow after blow on the orb, making the Phantom scream in rage.
"DOOM!" The Phantom yelled as it fired its technique at Yang and Nora, who barely managed to dodge it.
"Come on guys! I know we can do this!" Yang yelled as her semblance began to power her up more. With a new zeal, the others began to wear the Phantom down until eight minutes passed, paralyzing Weiss and Jaune.
"I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!" The Phantom roared in anger as it raised its hands into the air "DOOM!" It roared, striking the remaining fighters with doom counters.
"TWELVE MINUTES CHILDREN. THAT IS ALL YOU HAVE BEFORE I TAKE YOUR SOULS… LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN BEAT THE CLOCK." The Phantom said as it fired a barrage of dark-fire balls at them.
"What do we do?!" Nora yelled as she dodged the fire balls.
"… Yang do you know that new combination move we made?!" Ruby said as she looked at her sister.
"Yeah… Ohhhh! I see where you're going with this!" Yang said as her red eyes glinted with anticipation.
"Can you three distract it?" Ruby asked.
"We got it Ruby, now go!" Blake said as she, Pyrrha, and Nora began to draw the Phantom's attention.
"Sis while I think the plan is good, I don't think I've gotten enough of a boost from my semblance…" Yang said grimly.
"Well… I hope you don't get mad!" Ruby yelled as she smacked Yang with Crescent Rose.
Eleven minutes later the girls only had one minute left on their timers. "Ruby are you two ready?!" Blake yelled as she used the kusarigama form of her weapon.
"We're ready!" Ruby yelled as she spun around in a tornado while Yang held on to Crescent Rose while charging aura into her fist.
"Go for it now!" Yang yelled as her fist gained a dragon like aura.
"Right, Enabler!" Ruby yelled as Yang let go and was launched towards the orb.
"EAT THIS!" Yang roared, as the dragon shaped aura seem to roar as well, as she cocked her fist back and punched the orb so hard a large shockwave erupted.
As soon as she jumped away the orb seem to collapse on itself and dissipate as the Phantom began to clutch its 'face'.
"CURSED… FOOOOLLLLSSSS!" The Phantom roared in agony as it vanished in black wisps.
(End Kingdom Hearts 1.5 OST: Destiny's Force)
As soon as the Phantom vanished, Weiss, Jaune, and Ren were able to move once more as their teammates supported them.
"Jeez… that was a close one." Jaune said as Pyrrha helped him up.
"I'm just glad it's over." Blake said as Weiss accepted her help up.
"I'm curious though… didn't it seem to take the fight really seriously?" Ruby said as the others thought back to what the Phantom said "I mean- Not even Saix and Xaldin were that serious! They understood it was just an organized fight."
"You are correct, this is most curious…" Pyrrha said as the two teams began to walk towards the exit.
"RWBY? JNPR? What are you all doing here?" They heard a voice say.
Looking at the exit, they saw Ozpin in a wizard costume and Glynda in a witch costume as they looked at the two teams with curiosity.
"Professor Ozpin!" Weiss said as Ozpin and Glynda walked towards them.
"The party started a while ago, so why aren't you enjoying yourselves over there?" Glynda asked.
"Miss. Goodwitch, someone left the DTD on and we came to investigate it, but we got trapped by one of the opponents." Jaune said as both Ozpin and Glynda looked at him.
"Which one?" Ozpin asked as he thought he turned the system off for the night.
"The Phantom one! You know the floating cloak with the orb and Grimm mask?" Yang said as Ozpin and Glynda looked at each other.
"Miss. Xiao Long I'm afraid there is no such opponent in the DTD." Glynda said as she looked through her scroll.
"WHAT?!" The two teams yelled in shock.
"Yes, I'm sure if there was such an opponent we would know." Ozpin said as he showed them the scroll, showing there was indeed no 'Phantom'.
"But- But- But how….?" Nora started but was interrupted when Blake pointed to the window behind the two professors.
Behind the window there was a flash of light as they caught a glimpse of the Phantom before it disappeared once more.
"… RUN, RUN AWAY!" Ruby, Weiss, and Nora cried as both teams ran towards the safety of team RWBY's dorm to build a mattress and blanket fortress.
"… That was strange." Ozpin said as they saw the two teams run away.
"Teenagers…" Glynda muttered as the professors left the arena and back to the dance.
As soon as the coast was clear the Phantom appeared once more and released a laugh. "MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAPPY HALLOWEEN! It said before it disappeared into the night, deciding to troll Oogie Boogie in Halloween Town.
END!
