(You mostly likely saw the new character info, I was debating if I should add that or not, I just did it anyways. But no more talk time to talk about this damn chapter.)
(3rd POV)
Ruby Rose stands over the white stone memorial of Summer Rose.
"Hey, mom," Said Ruby as she looks down at the inscription: 'Summer Rose" - Thus Kindly I Scatter.' "Sorry I haven't come by in a while. Things have been... well, things have been, pretty busy. Oh, Dad's here, too! He's, uh, you know... Dad," She quickly shrugs. "He's still teaching at Signal. But he told me that he's going to be on some mission soon. I think he misses adventuring with you," She looks forlornly at the gravestone. "I miss you too," She didn't want to pause, but yet she did. "Haven't gotten kicked out of Beacon yet! So that's cool. I think being on a team with Yang helps. Keep her in line... That was a joke, and she gotten a boyfriend, his name is Barbatos, weird name I know. She's actually a really great fighter! You can tell she's learned a lot from Dad! Oh, so are Weiss and Blake. Oh! They're my teammates! Together, we form Team RWBY! And yes, before you ask, that does cause a lot of confusion. Anyways, I made a bunch of new friends, and then I met some... let's just say, uh, odd teachers. Oh! We've also stopped some bad guys, too! I guess it's like they say: "like mother, like daughter"! I still wonder why Ozpin let me into the school early. But, uh, I guess he'll tell me one day. You know how he is. It's funny, the more I get to know him, the more he's starting to sound like Uncle Qrow," A bark alerts her to the ever-adorable Zwei and the sight of her father, Taiyang Xiao Long, in the trees behind her. "Oh! Looks like Dad's back! I gotta go! He's dropping me off at Beacon for the tournament match before he goes on his next mission. Wish me luck!" She puts the hood back on and starts to walk away, but turns and delivers one final message to her mother: "It was good to talk."

Crowds are cheering in the stands of a stadium of epic proportions, visitors from all over the world. In the field of volcanic earth and icy glaciers below, Ruby fires and swings her Crescent Rose at an opponent as Blake Belladonna exchanges blows with Reese Chloris, the blades of her Gambol Shroud, colliding with the hoverboard of opponent until she slips away, readies herself, and charges in again. Behind her, Weiss Schnee waves her Myrtenaster as the sound of her Glyphs is heard, and finally Yang Xiao Long dodges the explosive force of Arslan Atlan's fist before returning fire with her own Ember Celica.
High above the action, two familiar teachers are sitting at a sportscaster's desk, with a microphone between them and the holographic image of the four kingdoms' symbols united as one.
"Hello! It seems that we have another astonishing ahead of us! Wouldn't you agree, Professor?" Said Port.
Professor Oobleck looked a bit annoyed. "Doctor," He then quickly brightens up , looking excitedly again. "And yes Peter, I think it's safe to say this match may be the closest we've seen of the of the four-on-four round of the tournament!"
"For those of you just now joining us, welcome to The Vytal Festival Tournament, broadcast live from the Amity Colosseum!" He waves his arm to gesture at the entire event from his place on the gigantic screen over the crowds. The Coliseum is shown in its full of glory, as shuttle craft transport people to and from the various floors while the entire structure hovers around the airspace of Beacon Academy. Explosions are seen throughout the 'battlefield'. "If this is your first time watching, allow us to break down the rules." Said Port.
Oobleck holds up the appropriate number of fingerd for each of his explanations as a hologram to his side illustrates the rules. "The tournament is divided into three distinctive rounds: teams, doubles, and singles. Age and school year are irrelevant! In this tournament, your only attribute being tested... is skill."

FanfictionBarbatos was something of a case, cold dead black eyes, with almost no pupil, his humanity. Ozpin comes up to him and simply ask about his name, and if he would like to join Beacon. I don't own any of the characters or other assets from RWBY or Roos...
