Disclaimer: Power Rangers and all characters and properties belong to Saban Entertainment, Toei Entertainment and Hasbro. Winifred Burkle belongs to Joss Whedon, Mutant Enemy and FOX but this is not a crossover with the TV series Angel. Any other characters that don't appear in Power Rangers or Angel are mine but unlike, Jillian in my upcoming story, I'm not too possessive of them.
The story is based on the Doctor Who episode "Midnight", so credit goes to the writers of that episode and the BBC for the concept.
Aboard the Midnight Express
Robert James, RJ for short arrived at a hotel with his friends/workers/teammates Casey Rhodes, Lily Chilman and Theo Martin, but this was no ordinary hotel. The four rangers were amazed at what they saw. The hotel was made of purple and light blue crystallize like stones and the windows that were there were fifteen feet thick.
"This is not your usual type of hotel resort!" Lily exclaimed.
"You said it." Casey replied, "It is like something out of a fantasy."
"That is an understatement." Theo replied.
"This hotel is quite beautiful!" Lily exclaimed.
"Indeed, but mysterious at the same time." RJ observed, "There is something about this place that just does not seem right."
"I just hope this hotel with beauty is not what it seems to be." Casey chided.
"Fifteen minutes until we are all aboard the Midnight Express!" a voice on the intercom announced.
"The Midnight Express?" Lily quipped, "What is that?"
"Only one way to find out." Flash replied.
The group walked over to a nearby panel where RJ pressed a button, "What is the Midnight Express? Where does it take you?"
"The Midnight Express is a shuttle train," the voice on the computer explain, "For your destination, it will take you to a sapphire waterfall."
"A waterfall made out of sapphires." Theo stated.
"An enormous jewel the size of a glacier," the voice on the computer continued to explain, "reaches the Cliffs of and then shatters into the sapphires at the edge, then fall a hundred thousand feet into a crystal ravine."
"That sounds interesting." Casey noted.
"Breathtaking!" Lily exclaimed.
"The trip will take four hours." the voice on the computer added, "and it will be worth your time."
"It sounds like a school trip," Casey first scoffed before stating, "but if it says it will be worth your time to watch this waterfall, then I guess I am up for it."
"That makes three of us," Theo said, "As Lily is very much interested in going."
"What about you, RJ?" Casey asked.
"Sure," RJ answered, "Why not? I could be up for an exciting trip here upon the Midnight Express. First, we will have to get signed up before we can go aboard this shuttle."
"After this," Lily spoke up, "we will meet up with Dominic and Fran because they're returning from their trip."
"Which didn't take too long for them," Theo muttered.
"They were only gone three months." RJ interjected, overhearing Theo.
"That's my point."
"Ten minutes until we are all aboard the Midnight Express!" the intercom voice announced.
"We better hurry." RJ told the group.
The group arrived at the entrance way of the shuttle to the Midnight Express and they saw the basic rules, which included no animals, no outside food and drink, and no drugs or alcohol.
"That's a no brainer." Casey scoffed.
"I agree," Theo nodded in agreement, "one would have to not have common sense to break those basic rules."
"Otherwise, we're set," Lily smiled.
"Okay then," RJ replied as he written the things needed, "Let us be careful, shall we?"
"That we will." Casey replied.
"Five minutes until we are all aboard the Midnight Express!" the intercom announced.
"We are registered to be on board the shuttle." RJ announced.
"Not a moment too soon," Theo replied.
"And we will be back for dinner," Casey told his father, "We can try that one place that is a jungle themed restaurant where we will be meeting with Dominic and Fran."
"Sounds like a plan, amigo." RJ replied, "Besides, we are heading on a shuttle for an interesting trip visiting a diamond like waterfalls. What could possibly go wrong?"
