''Watch your step! We don't what know what's on this path, so we need to be extra careful'' - Gino Samuel advised. And not even a second, Darius Greg, Meiling Hong, Wario and Waluigi fell in a ditch.

It was early in the morning at Neo-City as we head towards the Vanguard Academy. We see Tatsumi and Lubbock making their way towards the school entrance door when suddenly, Yosuke Hanamura came running out in panic with Tae Yamada biting his head as Kiyotaka Ishimaru, Sakura Minamoto and Ai Mizuno ran after them, much to the boys' bewilderment.

Meanwhile at the fountain, we see Samui and Noelle Fyne reading some books while Geo Stelar, Dan Kusou and Ash Ketchum are seen circling around the fountain on their bike, skateboard and scooter, respectively, much to the females' dismay.

Meanwhile at a nearby tree, we see Kaban, Serval, Amy Rose and Miles "Tails" Prower having a conversation while Tsuchinoko is seen hiding behind the tree when Stephan and Acerola approaches them.

At the rooftop of the academy, we see Tsuyuno Yatsumura and Rina Shioi sitting on a bench.

"Have I ever told how I killed that one bitch?'' Rina questioned.

"You'd still tell me if I answered no.'' Tsuyuno replied.

Then all of a sudden, Randy Cunningham, Jake Long, Lincoln Loud, Clyde McBride, Zach Gurdle, Liam, Rusty Spokes and Stella Zhau came running in the rooftop with numerous ice box in hands with Zach, Liam and Rusty pulling a mini-katapult.

"What are you guys doing?'' Tsuyuno questioned with a raised eyebrow.

Randy chuckled, "You'll see.'' he replied.

As this is going, Jake and Lincoln folded down a fence, "Alright, Clyde! You're up!" the latter beckoned.

Clyde nodded before standing close to edge and then raising his hands up, "STUDENTS OF VANGUARD ACADEMY!" he called out which got everyone's attention, "I GIVE YOU... ICE CREAM!" he declared.

On cue, a large number of ice cream are flung out all over the place and despite everyone's confusion, they all cheered upon the sight of the ice creams raining all over the courtyard.

"Nice, I got a chocolate!" Yui Yuigahama cheered.

"Alright! I got a neopolitan ice cream!" Akane Isshiki exclaimed in glee.

"Sea Salt Ice Cream?'' Cana Alberona questioned, "When was this available outside Twilight Town and Radiant Garden?'' she asked in confusion.

"Selecta Birthday 3 in 1.'' Daisuke "Davis" Motomiya read out loud, "Who came up with this shit?'' he questioned in disbelief.

"Hey! There's a Selecta Magnum!" a girl shouted.

The girl has a slender figure, she has a long curly auburn hair that she wears in a ponytail with a blue scrunchie, she has black eyes and wears glasses. She wears a purple short sleeve shirt that shows part of her midriff, blue leggings underneath a yellow skirt with pineapple slice theme and black & white sneakers. This is Pepper Ann Pearson.

"That's mine!" Marta Lualdi shouted.

Suddenly, Pepper, Marta, Denki Kaminari, Hibari Hanakoganei, Jaguar, Long and Maribelle lunges towards the Magnum Ice Cream and began to squabble over it while another girl watches them from a far.

The girl has a slender figure, she has a blonde hair with one side of the bangs always covering one of her dark-colored eyes. She wears a mint green sweater and a red skirt with a blue sweater tied around her waist. She also wears white socks and brown shoes. This is Nicky Anais Little.

"Must they fight over a single ice cream?'' Nicky questioned, "Don't they know that there are plenty of that around.'' she pointed out before picking up one with Oscar Pine and Meliodas doing the same thing.

Back at the rooftop, Lincoln, Clyde, Zach, Liam, Rusty and Stella are seen cheering while Rina and Tsuyuno, both hand ice creams in hands, turns to Randy and Jake.

"Where did you get all of these ice creams?'' Tsuyuno asked.

"We bought it.'' Jake answered, "We got a lot of untouched money at the moment, so we decided to put it into good use by buying a lot of ice cream and sharing them to everyone.'' he explained.

"We also bringing a few boxes to the Shelter.'' Randy added.

"That's very nice of you guys.'' Rina replied.

Tsuyuno picks up two packs of ice cream, "Might as well save these two for Aya.'' she said.

"Where is she anyway?'' Rina asked before licking her ice cream.

"She's attending some sort of leader's meeting.'' Tsuyuno answered.

"Oh yeah... those guys are having one today.'' Randy mused.

"I wonder what's the meeting all about?'' Jake thought out loud.

Meanwhile inside the Vanguard Academy, we head towards one room to see a number of leaders gathered around which includes King Forest of the Triumph Division, Indigo Zap of the Bullies, Yuu Narukami of the Inaba Investigation Group, Peacock of Team Peacock, Esdeath of the Jaegers, Lion & Moose of the Lion and Moose Alliance, Fudou Nomura of Team Nomura, Arata Kasuga of Team Kasuga, Furan Takaki of the Maken-Ki!, Aya Asagiri of Team Asagiri, Koutarou Satomi of Satomi Knights, Enterprise of Azur Lane, Geo Stelar of Universal Guardians, Luna Platz of the Squad of Excellence, Trafalgar D. Water Law of Deadly Hearts, Erza Scarlet of Fairy Knights, Gaara of Team Redemption, Sonic the Hedgehog of the Super Sixth Squad, Izuku Midoriya of The Mighty Never Kneel, Shoto Todoroki of the Flaming Honor, Travis Touchdown of Team Extreme, Roy of Omega Force, Death the Kid of Death City Squad, Lina Inverse of Of Guns and Magic, Medaka Kurokami of the Dream Team, Kazeyoshi Imai of Full Force Guerrilla, Amu Hinamori of the Multiverse's Cutest Team, Duncan "Firebreather" Rosenblatt of The Pact, Baron Armstrong of the Strong Force and a woman.

The first woman has a short silver hair and purple eyes. She wears an eyepatch where her right eye used to be. She wears a black business jacket over a criss-crossed black top, black tight pants and shoes. She has a mechanical right arm. This is Najenda, leader of the Night Raid.

Night Raid Leader

Najenda

Gingka Hagane is also there, representing the Solo Heroes (heroes that are not part any ensemble groups) and more often than not, Gingka is treated as the defacto leader of the Solo Heroes.

Then Marcus "The Kane" McGee of the New Age Avengers, Andres "Singko" Alvarez of Team Idolo and Hunter Isaac Rey of The Hunting Team entered the room.

Hunter then noticed Gingka, "Gingka? What are you doing here?'' he asked.

"I'm here for the meeting.'' Gingka replied.

Hunter then grabs Gingka's right arm, "Get out of here! This meeting is for leaders only!" he demanded.

Gingka shrugged his grip, "Can it, Hunter! I was invited to come here!" he replied, "I represent the Solo Heroes as a whole because more often that not, I'm treated as their defacto leader.'' he explained.

"That doesn't count!" Hunter argued, "So get outta here!" he demanded.

Travis, Duncan and Medaka walks towards them, "Knock it off, Hunter!" Duncan scolded, "Gingka is told to come here by the higher ups.'' he pointed out.

Medaka then spoke, "If you had a problem about it then go complain to the higher-ups!" she advised with a fan pointed to the door.

Hunter wanted to argue but kept his mouth shut after realizing how right they are. As this is going on, Kazeyoshi and Enterprise observes them from the top seats.

"How did that one ever became a leader?'' Enterprise questioned.

"How he was chosen as a leader is questionable at best.'' Kazeyoshi answered, "Then again... most of us are questionable but we've proven time and time again that we're capable leaders however this guy on the other hand hasn't proven one thing.'' he explained, "In fact... his second-in-command does better leadership than him.'' he added.

"I see.'' Enterprise muttered, "Anyway... what do you think this meeting is all about?'' she asked.

"I don't know but I got a hunch that it has something to do with the Space Gem I've obtained back in your world.'' Kazeyoshi replied.

As this is going on, a female figure entered the room. The female figure is a tall, humanoid alien woman with pale-green skin, red freckles, pointy ears, bright pink eyes, and white hair that's been shaved into a lengthy mohawk. She wears thick, black mascara and black eyeliner that's drawn on to resemble running teardrops. She wears a red polo-shirt underneath a black office jacket, black trousers and white sneakers. This is Lord Dominator, also known as Professor Dominator.

Science and Research Department Member and Vanguard Academy Instructor

Lord "Professor'' Dominator

Lord Dominator then stood in front of a desk, "All right, take you seats folks, this meeting won't be that long.'' she announced, "You're all probably wondering why you are all gathered here today.'' she pointed out.

"No shit, Sherlock.'' Arata replied before Fudou puts him in a headlock.

"Anyway... it has something to do with the Space Gem that Kazeyoshi and his team found in Miss Enterprise's world.'' Lord Dominator revealed.

"I knew it.'' Kazeyoshi muttered in confirmation.

"As you all heard from the news, the Mad Titan - Thanos, is currently in the hands of the Avengers.'' Lord Dominator said, "As for those who don't know the Mad Titan, Thanos is an Eternal and is granted with vast strength and durability, far greater than any of the other Titans; and his ability to wield cosmic energy was second-to-none.'' she explained, "Anyway... the reason the Mad Titan found himself in the hands of the Avengers is because he crash landed in Doctor Strange's mansion after getting defeated by a certain individual.'' she stated.

"And who is this individual?'' Najenda asked.

"A guy who claims himself to be an Absolute Human called Thomas Camp.'' Lord Dominator answered when suddenly, Kazeyoshi whom is taking a sip of a beer, did a spitstake, much to everyone's surprise.

"Hey! What the fuck?!" Sonic exclaimed.

"Kazeyoshi, what's wrong?'' Izuku asked in concern.

Kazeyoshi shook his head while wiping his mouth, "Sorry, sorry...'' he apologized, "I was just taken aback that someone kicked Thanos' ass.'' he stated.

"Anyway... after this guy defeated Thanos, he took possession of the Mad Titan's Infinity Gauntlet alongside two Infinity Stones, the Power Stone and the Time Stone, and took over the Black Order.'' Lord Dominator stated, "And recently, he'd obtained the Mind Stone after destroying Vision.'' he added.

"Again?!" Travis squawked in disbelief, "That guy is sure fond of getting himself mangled to pieces.'' he grumbled.

"Vision is currently in the middle of rebuilding.'' Lord Dominator pointed out, "The higher-ups sent a Miracle Gem to the Avengers, so Vision will be back in no time.'' she stated.

"What about the other stones?'' Shoto questioned.

"Thomas is currently in search of them.'' Lord Dominator answered.

"So, that's why you guys from the Science and Research Department don't want the Space Gem in your possession!" Kazeyoshi figured out in disbelief, "You guys don't want to be the target of this guy, so you told me to keep the Space Gem to myself!" he stated in annoyance.

"Yeah... better you than us.'' Lord Dominator confirmed with a blank look.

"Assholes.'' Kazeyoshi grumbled.

"So, what are we going to do about it?'' Roy asked.

Lord Dominator sighed, "For now... I suggest that you share this information to everyone, so they know what's going on.'' she advised, "I also suggest that you people be careful in your missions and avoid this guy at all cost.'' she added, "We don't know the full extent of his abilities but since he defeated Thanos, there is no denying that Thomas Camp is a very dangerous person.'' she finished, "Anyway... that's all for today's meeting, you're all dismissed.'' she declared.

And with that, everyone stood up from their seats and made their way out of the room, Kazeyoshi and Enterprise were the last one to leave.

"I totally regretting finding the Space Gem.'' Kazeyoshi grumbled in annoyance, "I'll see you later Enterprise, I need to do something.'' he said.

Enterprise nodded, "Okay.'' she replied before watching Kazeyoshi running off towards a corner. Her eyes narrowed, "He is hiding something.'' she muttered in suspicion.

Later in the men's restroom somewhere in the academy, we see Kazeyoshi standing in front of a mirror with the water running down the sink, Kazeyoshi then stared at his reflection on the mirror with a look of disbelief and shock.

"This impossible...'' Kazeyoshi muttered, "I'm suppose to be the only one left...'' he said, "How... how is he alive?'' he asked in confusion.

Bzzzttt...

Later that day in the Training Ground, we see Javelin making her way towards the Tech Garage. Earlier today, Javelin found out that she's been chosen to become an honorary member of an existing team and is now on her way to meet them.

"I'm so nervous.'' Javelin admitted, "I do hope I get along well with this team.'' she hoped. A minute later, Javelin arrived at the Tech Garage, she lets in a deep breath before letting it out, composing her and giving a determined expression, she quickly enters the garage, "Pardon my intrusion!" she called out, "My name is Javelin, I'm a Destroyer from the Royal Navy, I am part of the J-class and Azur Lane!" she introduced herself, "Starting today, I am the newest honorary member of this team and I look forward working with all of you!" she declared with a bow.

After that, Javelin looks up and is greeted by the sight of the entire New Age Avengers, minus their leader, alongside it's honorary members building some sort of large vehicle using larger-than-life Lego pieces.

Xyrielle "XY Girl" Yona turns to the others, "Was anyone informed by Marcus about this?'' she asked with her teammates shrugging their shoulders in response.
