SO! Here we are at the start of my first fanfic and my first post. Well this is a reader insert for RWBY. It's originally intended to be a male reader insert so I'll be using pronouns like "he" throughout the whole thing. You probably won't get romantically involved with any of the characters. As of now I don't think I'll go along with the storyline. I want this to be more about you having adventures with the team, and yeah I might take some ideas from the series itself and throw you into the episode. Give it some time, I know the first chapter and a half or so (technically this is an intro) don't have much to do with RWBY but I'll get there I promise.

That's pretty much it so I hope you enjoy!

"Man I can't believe coach is making us go to practice on such a nice day." You said into your cell while making your way over to Soccer practice. It was the first day of Spring. Birds were chirping and squirrels were scurrying about all around. The breeze was cool, but the sun warmed your skin.
Your best friend Owen's voice filled your ear saying, "Isn't your first game this weekend, (y/n)?"
"Well yeah...but I'd rather spend such a beautiful day taking a nap in the sun you know?"
"Sure I get it but...How do you do it?"
"Do what?"
"You're one of the top students at Ravenwood, Captain of the Soccer team, and I'd be lying if I said I've never seen a few girls looking your way...How do you have the time to take a nap?"
"Hah. You're right I really don't have much time on my hands. Well I'm here so I'll have to text you later."
"Later dude."
You joined your team for practice and once everyone got there you started stretches as usual. After a while you decided it was time to get started. "Alright guys let's take two laps around the field and we'll go from there." Taking your place at the head of your pack, the run began. Taking this time to appreciate the day, you noticed that the sunlight had gotten a bit harsh. It had also gotten unnaturally hot for this time of year. Only half of your first warm-up lap had gone by and you were already breaking a sweat. You started to pant and your teammate Jared decided it would be a good idea to call you out on it.
"Hey, (y/n) you're not out of shape are you?" he said with a smirk. This resulted in more than a few snickers from your team.
You weren't the type to abuse your power, but this seemed like a good time to do so. "Haha very funny Jared. You get to take another lap." This calmed everyone down and earned a groan from Jared, but you were still burning up. Soon your laps were over and Jared started his third. "Ok boys get some passes going to start things off. I'm going to go talk to coach about something." The team complied quickly and you went over to the coach. You let him know that you weren't feeling too well, and a few minutes later you were strolling through the hallway of Ravenwood high to the nurse's office. You peeked into the office through the window, and seeing that she wasn't present you let yourself in. You started to feel a bit woozy and took to leaning on the wall for support. Ten minutes passed by and the nurse still hadn't come in, so you decided to lay down on the floor. It wasn't long until your life had turned itself upside down.

"Hey...hey kid...HEY KID!" You jolted awake to the sound of an impatient voice. It was a police officer who didn't look very pleased with you.
"Yes...sir?" you managed to mumble after being woken in a blur.
"I've got two questions for ya kid. First of all, what are you doin' out this late?" Out...? Late...? You stood up and took a look around and realized that you had no idea where you were. You had woken up under a tree in the local park of a bustling city. It was dark out and you didn't seem to be anywhere near Ravenwood, let alone your home town.
"Sir I'm sorry but I have no clue where I am right now and I can't really answer your question." Luckily for you the officer was empathetic, and trusted you for some reason, not at all like an officer at home.
"You chose a bad time to get lost kid. Where are you from?" asked the officer.
"I live in (hometown)"
"Never heard of the place. I'm assuming you're not from Vale. What kingdom are ya from?"
"I'm not from any kingdom...(hometown) is in the state of (state)."
"A state?" the officer asked, clearly puzzled.
"Yeah...as in the United States of America? the country?"
"I haven't seen any states being united around here, kid. I know I've asked more than two, but after you answer my other question I'll help you figure your situation out. Have you seen this man? His name is Roman Torchwick." The officer held up a wanted poster for a man with scarlet hair tucked neatly under a bowling hat. He had a long white coat and wielded a cane.
"No sir I've never seen that man before"
"Well if you see him around be sure to let us know...now about your situation...follow me on over to the HQ."
Left with few other options, you did exactly that. After heading to the HQ, you and the officer went to his office where he asked you a few more questions.
"So what's your name, kid?" the officer began.
"(y/n), sir. (y/n) (l/n)." you replied.
"And where did you say you're from?"
"(hometown)"
"Alright..."
After a few minutes of searching on what looked to be a kind of high end computer, the officer stood and shook his head.
"It's getting late, (y/n). Why don't you spend the night in my office? I keep a sleeping bag here for the nights I have to stay in the office to file a report. I'll come in early tomorrow to get you all sorted out." Once again left with limited choices, you took off your jacket and rolled the sleeping bag out. You had just noticed that you weren't wearing the same clothes as when you had dosed off in the nurse's room. Instead of the shorts and T-shirt you had worn to practice you were wearing your favorite jacket, a solid T-shirt, and Jeans with a barely visible tear on your right thigh. Putting two and two together you realized that you must be dreaming. Without hesitation you slapped yourself, which was a big mistake. Sighing you realized that this was not a dream. It was very real and now your face had a mark which was very red.
Outside of the office, you heard the officer speaking to someone outside.
"Says he's from (hometown)...I already checked and it isn't in any of the four kingdoms...he's well beyond fit for his age...Beacon? He's not ready for that yet...Alright I'll give him a month and then we'll call Oz." You felt troubled by this. There was no doubt that they were talking about you and it didn't seem like you were getting home any time soon. You soon realized that getting home didn't matter much to you. You were an orphan, and didn't have very many friends. Even Owen was distant from you seeing as you were always busy with either school or athletics. Come to think of it you didn't even know what his favorite color was. You were soon lost in your thoughts and drifted off to another deep sleep.
