It is another fine day at Neo-City but were not focusing today's story at the Training Camp but the institution right next to it. Just a five minute walk away from the Training Camp is a large and colorful castle-like mansion campus called the Vanguard Academy named after the founder of Neo-City, Hector Vanguard also known as Hector the Vanguard.
The Vanguard Academy serves as an institution designed to provide learning spaces and learning environments for the teaching of students under the direction of instructors. The Academy uses state of the art classrooms, the hall is a semi-circular auditorium of stepped seats. There is a stage at the front. Below the seats with access from the outside rear are a number of music practice rooms. The façade of the hall towards the forecourt and road has two entrance lobbies linked together by eight stone columns. The forecourt is paved with stone. The department has an onsite design library with dedicated seating to encourage student use. All music halls and performance areas are fitted with soundproof windows which prevent sound from escaping, even while open, as well as walls engineered to prevent sound crossing at right angles. The floors of the centres also float on a bed of air, so as to maintain good soundproofing. An Observatory houses a 10-inch-aperture Cooke refractor on a motorised equatorial mount. A fully operational army-only CCF detachment operates at the college under the supervision of a resident SSI (school staff instructor). Weekly parades take place at the parade ground adjacent to the armoury, with occasional off-campus activities, such as range-days or overnight exercises.
The academy teaches regular subjects but it also provides different subjects that includes teaching history about other worlds, magic & witchcraft and machine building.
Compare to other academies, the Vanguard Academy has no age restriction nor race restrictions, anyone is welcome to attend the academy that wants to attend school or those who just missed attending schools.
The Vanguard Academy has a very close ties with the Training Camp as numerous trainees and heroes are also attending the academy, some instructors from the training camp also works at the academy.
And today... is the first day of school!

The campus ground is really lively as we see students walking around the premises, some students are seen sitting on benches having a conversation with their friends and we also see Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru chasing a cat around the place.
Then a limousine stops in front of the school, the doors open and out came a beautiful young girl. The young girl has a a long, luscious blonde hair with a flower pin on the left side of her head and has green eyes. She wears a black sleeveless singles dress that reaches her thighs over a white blouse with a blue gem necklace around her chest, black tights, blue heels and she wears a blue diamond-shaped earrings. This Faye Bertha Conway, the princess of the Conway Kingdom.

Faye is then greeted by her best friend, Regan Bladeworks as the latter engulfs the former with a quick hug. The two shared a short laughter as Faye grabs her bags and began to walk towards the school.
"I'm so excited!" Faye cheered, "Not only that were back in school! Tonight we'll be celebrating a very special event!" she stated with a smile as they walks pass by Taichi Yagami and Red having a conversation.
Regan nodded, "You're right. The yearly Unification Ceremony between the Vanguard Academy and the Heroes Coalition!" she cheered, "Where each side will present one individual that will hold the crown that represents the unity that Louie the Supreme God of Generosity and Hector the Vanguard once held." she stated, "I'm pretty sure you're going to represent our school as our crown holder just like you did last year.'' she said with a smile.
Faye let's out a giggle, "I don't mind being the crown holder once more." she replied.
"By the way, after the unification ceremony, New Day Jose is going to throw an after party!" Regan reminded as Brent Dark skates passed her, "Make sure that you dress nicely.'' she advised.
"Don't worry, I'll come to the party in my best attire." Faye replied, "As a Princess, I must dress properly for any events, less I became a laughing to stock to everyone." she stated.
"Don't worry... no one is going to laugh at you for whatever that you wear." Regan reassured as the two are walks through a large castle-like door, "Besides, everyone loves you here.'' she claimed.
"It's Faye Bertha Conway!" an anthropomorphic chicken cheered before fainting. The anthropomorphic chicken has white feathers, dark eyes, yellow beak, red waddle and orange feet. This is... erm... Chicken.

Standing in front of a row of lockers are Jaune Arc, Ruby Rose and Lie Ren, Jaune gawked at the sight of Faye's beauty causing Ruby to elbow him at the ribs and gave him a cute glare while Ren turns around snickering.
"See? They love you." Regan said.
Then suddenly two gigantic feet stood in front of Faye and Regan, "Can I carry your bags?'' the giant asked in a very gentle voice. Despite his appearance obscured by small screen, he wears blue pants, white socks and black leather shoes. This is Little Joey.

"Oh! Little Joey~ You are such a sweetie." Faye cooed in glee as Little Joey picks up her bags.
"Hey, Faye! Look!" Regan called out, "It's Kazeyoshi.'' she pointed out as Faye looks at the direction she is pointing and saw Kazeyoshi Imai standing in front of another row of lockers, checking his tablet.
The two then approaches Kazeyoshi, "Hey, Kaze~" Faye greeted getting the young man's attention.
"Ye-hey! Faye! Glad to see you again!" Kazeyoshi greeted with a smile and a wink.
Faye let's out a giggle, "I'm glad to see you too, Kaze.'' she replied with a smile, "So, are you ready for tonight's Unification Ceremony?'' she asked in excitement.
Kazeyoshi let's out a chuckle, "Despite my mission schedule, I won't miss it!" he replied, "After all... I may get chosen to represent as Heroes Coalition's crown holder.'' he claimed.
"I'm pretty sure both of you will get chosen as crown holders." Regan said, "You were the crown holders of last year, you'll be the crown holders again, this year." she stated.
Faye and Kazeyoshi can only smile at each other.

Meanwhile go back outside the academy where we see several people walking around the school grounds, among those people are Amu Hinamori, Nina Sakura and Hibari Hanakoganei. The three girls were making their way towards the main entrance while having a conversation at the same time as they passed by Taro Yamada and Akira Nova talking each other on a bench, the three girls comes across Eustace Bagge watering some plants.
As the three girls then got closer to the old man, "Hello, Mister Bagge." Hibari greeted.
Eustace responded by turning to them while wearing his large green scary mask, "OOGA-BOOGA-BOOGA!" he shouted.
"KYAAAAAAHHH!" the three girls let's out a scream of fright before breaking into a run towards the lounge.
Eustace took off his mask, "Yehehehehe...'' he let's out a triumphant laugh as Arinah approaches him. She rolls up a tabloid and immediately whacks the back of Eustace's head, "Ow!" he yelped in pain before turning to Arinah whom is looking at him with a stern face, "What did I do?" he asked while rubbing his head.
Meanwhile we see two more girls walking their way towards the school's entrance. The first girl has a light pink hair tied in a high sidetail with an orange maple leaf headband on top with green eyes. She wears a white-dress jacket with maroon sleeves, a white mantle with orange designs, white & orange high-knee socks wrapped in red ribbons and red shoes. This is Kanonno Grassvalley.

The second girl has a very pale skin tone, has a short silver hair with pink highlights and a single hairlock on the right side of her face, and has red eyes. She wears a white short sleeveless tailcoated vest with yellow linings and ribbon over a short dress shirt baring her midriff, a white skirt with diamond-shaped jagged ends and an asymmetrical thigh-high white high-heeled boots. Her body is also decorated by numerous crystals, including her left eye, the top of her head, her left shoulder, her chest, her arm wrist, and her back. This is Lazaris.

Lazaris
Oddly enough, Kanonno and Lazaris used to be enemies but after the events in their world where the latter is saved from a terrible fate worse than death, Lazaris began to see the errors of her ways and began to make herself a better person, but she is still feels guilty for everything that she's done. Fortunately, she found friendship with Kanonno whom she now considers her closest friend.
After the Heroes Coalition and Ad Libitum, a guild that Kanonno and Lazaris are part of, formed an alliance, the members of Ad Libitum were given the privilege to work for the organization and a few would attend the Vanguard Academy, Kanonno and Lazaris are one of them, though it's the first time for the latter.
"So, are you excited for your first day in school, Lazaris?'' Kanonno asked in glee.
"I had to admit, I am pretty excited." Lazaris replied, "But at the same time, I'm nervous." she admitted.
"Nervous? Why?" Kanonno asked.
Lazaris let's out a sigh, "I mean... I'm pretty sure the whole school already know who I am thanks to social media." she pointed out, "Some people thinks I'm still a bad person.'' she said in worry.
"You're thinking too much, Lazaris.'' Kanonno reassured, "I'm pretty sure that everyone knew by now that you're a changed person." she said as the two enters the school.
"IT'S LAZARIS! RUN!" Chicken shouted in fear.
"She... is... evil!" Cody yelled from the railing with an accusatory finger.
"Run! Everyone!" Dawn cried.
And with that, everyone began to scrambled all over the place, Randy Cunningham did a little breakdance on the floor before running while Jaune locks himself in his locker. After that, everyone are gone from the main entrance hall, leaving Kanonno and Lazaris alone with each other.
Kanonno let's out a nervous chuckle, "Well... I'm pretty confident that they'll get used to you soon." she stated.
Lazaris gave her a blank look, "Great." she grumbled.
Then a young man approaches them, the young man has brown eyes along with spiky brown hair. He wears a long-sleeved red shirt with multiple metallic dots at the front, and black jeans, which are held up by suspenders. At the collar of his shirt, a long white fabric is fitted in the front of the collar and hangs from both sides of the collar. He wears matching red gloves and at his right glove, his Exsphere rests there. He also wears two belts around his waist, from which the sheaths of his swords hang. Finally, his footwear consists of matching boots which is patterned with small metallic plates. This is Lloyd Irving.

"Hey girls." Lloyd greeted, "Hey, Lazaris. Sorry that everyone suddenly skedaddled away from here, they're still not used seeing a former bad guy around.'' he stated, "Which is kinda hypocritical because there are other former bad guys attending this school and they're okay with them.'' he pointed out.
Lazaris raised an eyebrow, "Well... that is really unfair." she said.
"Don't worry, they get use to you in time." Lloyd reassured, "You're a better person now, Lazaris. It'll take time but I'm sure they'll realized that you're not anymore what they think." he said with a smile.
Lazaris smiles back, "Thank you, Lloyd." she replied.
"Anyway... are the two of you gonna attend the Unification Ceremony, tonight?'' Lloyd asked.
Kanonno nodded, "I wouldn't missed it!" she replied, "I'm really excited of who will be this year's crown holders." she stated.
"From what Kanonno told me, it's a very special event." Lazaris said, "It piques my interest, so I'll be attending." she claimed.
Lloyd nodded, "Well then... let's get going.'' he said, "Colette and Marta are waiting for us at the Student's Recreation Area." he said.
Little did everyone know, that tonight's ceremony, will take on a sudden twist.
