But yeah, here's the next chapter. Enjoy!
Vale: City Streets. 5:00 P.M.
After searching for several hours Team RWBY were beginning to head back to Beacon.
"I can't believe we didn't find a single clue about that robbery." Ruby sighed sadly, kicking a rock on the ground.
"Well, we know that it wasn't the White Fang." Yang tried to cheer her up.
"But if it wasn't the White Fang then who was it?" Blake asked.
Ruby turned to Blake to say something but instead bumped into someone. "Oh, I'm sorry!" She apologized, looking at him. She gasped in surprise when she saw who it was.
"Hello again young lady!" The man greeted. "We really need to stop meeting like this."
"Oh, I'm SO sorry for bumping into you…again." Ruby said, her face turning red. The man was the same man she bumped into earlier that day.
The man laughed. "That's OK." He assured her. "I get pushed around much more than that."
"Doctor!" A young woman behind him ran up to him. "What happened?" She had nice, blonde hair, and was wearing a white T shirt and blue jeans.
"Nothing really." The man she called 'Doctor' replied. "Just bumping into people." He smiled at Ruby, who blushed slightly.
"So, what's your name?" Yang asked, coming to Ruby's rescue.
"I'm the Doctor." The man said.
"And I'm Rose." The girl introduced herself.
"Doctor who?" Weiss asked.
The Doctor sighed happily. "I just love the sound of that." He said. "And to answer your question: Nothing. Just the Doctor."
"Just the Doctor?" Blake skeptically asked.
"Yep." The Doctor nodded.
"Oh, OK." Yang shrugged. "I'm Yang."
"My name is Ruby Rose." Ruby said, taking the Doctor's hand. "Sorry for bumping into you."
"No need to apologize." The Doctor told her.
"I'm Weiss." The silver-haired girl said.
"Blake." The Faunus said.
"It's very nice to meet you." Rose said.
"And you." Yang smiled.
"So Doctor," Weiss said to the man with the brown coat. "What type of doctor are you? Are you a medical doctor?"
"Nah." The Doctor said. "Just the Doctor. Just a traveller."
Blake raised an eyebrow. "A traveller?"
The Doctor nodded. "So," he clapped his hands together. "What's going on here? Something's definitely happening."
"Haven't you heard?" Weiss asked, a little surprised that the Doctor didn't know. "There's to be a fighting tournament between all the kingdoms this week. And I'm going to win it!"
"You wish you were." Ruby said quietly. Unfortunately Weiss heard her.
"Hmph, you'll see." She snorted.
Rose laughed a bit, and then turned to the Doctor. "What are we going to do?"
"Well," He looked around him. "We can hang out for the tournament. Personally I don't really like the thought of all the fighting though."
Rose nodded. That was the Doctor all right. Never one to like a fight. Even when she first met him in the clothing store she worked in he always tried to reason with his enemies, and only used force when there was no way out.
"Well," Ruby said. "We have to get back to the Academy. It was nice meeting you."
The Doctor and Rose nodded. "It was nice to meet you to." The Doctor said. "And maybe perhaps next time we won't bump into each other quite like that."
Ruby blushed while the other three girls laughed. "We'll see you later!" Yang said, giving them a thumbs-up while they walked away.
The Doctor and Rose watched the four walk back toward Beacon Academy. "So now what?" Rose asked.
"Well if my calculations are correct," the Doctor said. "Whoever was sending that signal we were tracking will possibly reveal himself at the tournament. With all the fighting he could get away easily."
A/N: There we go! We finally got formally introduced to the Doctor! So to clear up a few things: I did Rose as the companion because I simply liked her the most. This takes place after the Age of Steel, but before the Ghost War episodes.
