2-3 person groups of the Companions can show up fighting things in various places, and I've seen it enough that I don't count that as an unusual encounter anymore. (It's probably also intentional, considering the nature of the Companions.)
IIRC, the first time I saw them out and about was near the dwemer ruin in which Peryite's quest takes place, tangling with a group of forsworn.
