Dr. Michael Pating and Dr. Caesar Apoy are seen sorting out candies in their inventories when Maki Nishikino, Rin Hoshizora and Hanayo Koizumi barges in to their office which made them scream in surprise.

The St. Harmony Island is allegedly located at the coordinates of 48° 52′ 36″ S, 123° 23′ 36″ W which is 2,688 kilometers off the coast of Southern Chile.

It is called the furthest point from any other landmass by President Mario Martinez, himself and the islands location is considered by geographers and cartographers as a "point of inaccessibility" since there is no existing records of accessible landmass.

In terms of description, the island is very similar to the Isle of Skye, both in size and beauty.

Originally used as a training ground by the Freedom Heroes and the Freedom Seekers but due to the formation of the Heroes Coalitions and the introduction of the Training Camp, no one had ever since trained in the island.

However, the veteran heroes would sometimes visit the island to have a get together or to relax and despite not being used for a very, very long time, the island managed to preserve it's beauty.

We then see the Central Command landing on a spacious area somewhere in the island with a large hatch opening which later serves as a ramp for everyone to walk on and the first one to exit the larger than life starship is Bow Hothoof, the enthusiastic father of Rainbow Dash, and excitement is written all over his place.

"St. Harmony Island!" Bow cheered rather loudly, "It's been ages since I've stepped foot here!" he admitted before turning around, "This island, like I said before, is used by us, the members of the Freedom Heroes and Freedom Seekers as the basic training ground back in our days and it will be you kids' training ground for the next four weeks." he declared, "So..." he uttered, "... the island is big, so feel free to choose any spot for your training." he beckoned.

Suddenly, the New Age Avengers alongside their honorary members rushes out from the ship in comical speed and tramples all over Bow, leaving him dazed on the ground with a silly smile on his face.

Marcus "The Kane" McGee then approaches him, "Uhh..." he uttered, "... sir, are you all right?'' he asked in concern.

Bow shook his head before letting out a hearty laugh, "Hahaha!" he chortled, "They seem excited.'' he mused before getting up from the ground.

"I must say that this place is very breathtaking." Marcus complimented while looking around, "It's really an honor that I get myself to train here." he declared, "Too bad I can't take any pictures." he grumbled with puckered lips.

"This island is amongs the most protected places here in Neo-Earth, so we can't risk having it expose to public.'' Bow reasoned, "So, wanna start your training?" he beckoned with a grin.

Marcus nodded in response, "Gladly." he accepted, "I just need to find the perfect spot to train." he pointed out.

"I got a nice place for you." Bow replied, "Plus, I contact a good friend of mine to help with your training." he added, "Come and follow me." he beckoned before walking ahead.

Marcus raised an eyebrow, "Help me with my training?" he uttered in confusion, "I wonder who it is." he wondered out loud before following the veteran hero.

Later that day while everyone are getting themselves ready for their own training, Bow and Marcus arrives at a grassy beach with numerous training equipment scattered around the area besides a small cliff.

"Here it is!" Bow presented with a smile.

"Woah!" Marcus exclaimed in awe, "I like the view..." he confessed, "... this place is perfect!" he declared.

"Glad ya like it!" Bow expressed with a grin.

"By the way, who is the person that is going to help me train?" Marcus asked.

Bow pointed a finger forward, "Him.'' he replied while referring to a man sitting on the sand in an Indian-style position, "One of the greatest Muay Thai fighters ever, Kham!" he introduced.

Kham had a brown complexion, he had an average height and muscular build, he had a short black hair and he had dark-colored eyes. He wears a black compression shorts with red linings, his hands are wrapped with white tapes, black ankle guards and a mongkon around his head.

Thai Martial Artist

Kham

Kham opened his eyes and stood up, he then looks at Bow and Marcus with a smile before bowing his head in greeting

"Kham..." Marcus uttered in shock before turning to Bow, "You want me to train with Kham!" he exclaimed in disbelief, "Do you want me to get killed?" he exclaimed in panic.

Bow let's out another hearty laugh, "Don't worry!" he reassured, "Kham's strikes can kill a person but I believe you'll make it!" he stated, "Come on, I'll introduce you to him." he beckoned before walking ahead.

Marcus facefaulted, "This going to hurt definitely." he grumbled in annoyance.

bzzzttt...

Meanwhile back in Neo-City, we head towards the Training Camp where we see Oswald "Ozzy" Wizner making his way towards the Tech Garage but much to his surprise, he found the area to be closed with Rhyno and another figure standing on guard.

The figure is a man with a tall stature, he had a fair complexion and a muscular build, he had reddish-brown facial hair and a short reddish-brown hair styled in a short mohawk, and he had dark-colored eyes. He wears a dark tank top with a skull design, blue pants and dark combat boots. This is Heath Slater.

Professional Wrestler

Heath Slater

As Ozzy got closer, Heath took notice of his arrival and held a hand up to stop him, "Hold up there dude, Tech Garage is close for today." he shared.

"Why?" Ozzy asked in confusion.

"The Science and Research Department are conducting a very secret experiment inside." Heath answered, "It's very confidential, so they had the two of us guard this entrance until things is finished." he explained.

"What kind of experiment are they doing inside?" Ozzy asked out of curiosity.

Rhyno then grabs the modern-strange cowboy by the shirt, "Didn't you hear what he just said!" he growled at Ozzy's face, "It's confidential?!" he shouted, "Now scram!" he said before throwing him aside.

"AAAAHHH!" Ozzy screamed while flying towards nowhere.

"Do you really had to throw him like that?" Heath asked in disbelief.

Rhyno scoffed in response, "Just doing my job." he reasoned with his arms crossed.

Meanwhile in the small kitchen somewhere in the Training Camp, we see Kylie Hollard cheerfully cooking food while baking at the same time, Anna Maymorie can be seen watching her from the counter.

"You really love to cook don't you, Kylie?" Anna asked with a smile.

Kylie nodded in response, "Yup!" she confirmed, "Cooking is something I really enjoy but I also loved everyone's smile whenever they eat my dishes." she explained, "Too bad, President Mario isn't here, I want him to try my new recipe." she complained.

Anna giggled in response, "It can't be helped." she said, "President Mario went to Elemental City because for something urgent but he'll be back soon.'' she stated.

As this is going on, Ichika Orimura and Kanzashi Sarashiki entered the kitchen with Flash Sentry and Charlotte Dunois were briefly seen walking past them from the back.

"Sup, you two." Ichika greeted.

"Hello." Kanzashi greeted as well.

Upon setting sights on the two, Kylie's eyes sparkled and made a beeline towards the two before pulling them both in a tight hug, "Kyaaa!" she squealed, "You two are sooooo cute as ever!" she cheered.

"Eeerrk, thanks..." Ichika wheezed.

Kanzashi let's out a painful giggle, "I-I appreciate the gesture Kylie..." she expressed, "... but please let us go, I'm loosing air...'' she pleaded.

Kylie then released them from hug, much to their delight as Anna spoke, "By the way, would the two of you like to join us for lunch?'' the staff member offered.

Kanzashi nodded in response, "Sure." she replied with a smile.

"We always enjoy your cooking." Ichika admitted.

Kylie smiled in response, "Good! Because I just made a new recipe for chicken stew~" she stated rather eagerly.

"CHICKEN STEW?!" a voice exclaimed.

Everyone then turns around to see Chicken standing at the doorway with a horrified expression on his face.

"Whoa! Chicken!" Ichika exclaimed in surprise, "Where did you come from?" he questioned.

"AAAAAHHHH!" Chicken screamed in response before running off, "Help!" he called out, "There's a crazy bitch who wants to cook me for lunch!" he cried out.

"Chicken wait!" Kylie called out with her arm reached out towards the retreating doodle, "I wouldn't do that you I swear!" she called out but Chicken was already gone.

Anna, Ichika and Kanzashi sweatdropped from what they just witnessed, "Well..." the staff member uttered, "... that was an interesting moment." she commented.

Outside the Training Camp, we see Suzuka "Suzie" Takahashi meditating under the Sakura Tree near a tennis court when Jacques Paulsen, Teddie and SpongeBob SquarePants are seen jogging dangerously close to her.

Disturbed, Suzie then commanded the spirits of wind by waving her hand which blows the three boys away, "WHY?!" Teddie cried out while he and his companions were sent flying towards the football field.

Suzie then realized what she just did, "Oops..." she muttered with a sweatdrop.

"Ninja" Dave Bauza, in his casual attire with an apron included, walked towards her with a plate of cookies in hand, "Was that really necessary?" the cookie-baking ninja asked, "I know you don't like getting disturbed with your meditation but they were just doing a jog." he pointed out with earned him a soft groan from Suzie, "Cookies?'' he offered which she gladly took, "Apologize to them, later.'' he beckoned with Suzie nodding in response while munching her cookies.

Meanwhile back inside the Training Camp, we head towards the training area where we see Joey Hollard furiously venting out his frustrations on a punching bag by bashing it from left to right.

And for what reason?

Joey was frustrated with a lot of things, aside from Mahiru Shimokamiyama(although he understands that she's being controlled) calling his father's training routine idiotic and plain suicide. He hasn't been able to sleep well ever since they got back in Neo-City as well as having repeated dreams of being called an idiot which further fueled his frustrations.

Another one that frustrated about was he never got the chance to get back at Descend and the last thing that frustrates him is that many trainees refused to be train by him. The other trainees understand that he's well-trained fighter but the fact that they were being trained by a fellow trainee made them feel inferior to him and insecure at the same time. He just wanted to help but he didn't take in consideration what others felts being trained by a fellow trainee which then frustrates him.

"Yo, dude." a voice called out, "I think you shouldn't vent your frustrations too much on the poor punching bag." the owner of the voice advised.

Joey stopped his strikes before turning around to see Gelman standing behind him, the leader of the Mississippi Four sighed in response, "I'm sorry but I really need to let out some steam." he reasoned, "My frustrations is getting into me." he said before resuming what he started earlier.

"From what I observe, the frustration already got into you." Gelman pointed out, "It's eating you slowly, I can tell." he furthered, "I suggest you stopped venting your frustration through physical activities." he suggested, "It will never release your frustrations, it will only intensify it." he reasoned, "I suggest that you go find someone to talk to about your frustrations because having someone to listen to your problem is better than beating yourself to it.'' he explained before walking off.

Joey scoffed in response as he kept on pounding the punching bag, Gelman looks back at him for a minute before shaking his head in disappointment, he then proceeds to leave the area.

bzzzttt...

Later that day at the lounge area somewhere in the Training Camp, we see Akane Sakurada nervously looking around for her older sister before taking notice of Eustace Bagge reading a newspaper on one chair.

Knowing that he's a good friend of Arinah, she approaches the old man, "Excuse me, Eustace-san..." she called out, "... have you seen my sister around?" she asked.

Eustace responded by throwing aside the newspaper with his face wearing a large scary mask, "OOGA BOOGA BOOGA!" he shouted.

"KYAAAAA!" Akane screamed in fright before breaking into a run.

Eustace then took off his mask, "Yehehehehe...'' he laughed in satisfaction when Shizune Takatsuki and Cal the Exceed approaches the old man with the former whacking his head with a rolling pin, "Ow!" he yelped before turning to Shizune and Cal whom both are sporting a disapproving look, "What did I do?" he asked in confusion while rubbing his head.

Meanwhile outside the lounge area, we see Ozzy, Kylie and Suzie walking in the hallways towards the aforementioned area.

"Ugh..." Ozzy grumbled, "... I was looking forward to check out that Mandalorian Kom'rk Fighter but nooo they just had to close the Tech Garage from others!" he complained.

"You can't have the Tech Garage all to yourself Ozzy." Suzie admonished.

The trio then comes across Dac and two figures standing in front of vending machine while having a conversation.

The first figure is a teenage girl with a petite appearance and a pale complexion, she had a white cloud-like bobcut hair and she had white-colored eyes. She wears a blue dress shirt with a cloud-like collar and sleeves, white skirt, white pantyhose and white boots. She is sitting on a floating small cloud. This is Cloudia Cumulus.

Aerosolian

Cloudia Cumulus

The second figure is a teenage girl with a slender frame and a light-green complexion, she had a green hair tied in two pigtails and she had red-colored eyes, and the most notable feature from her hair are the small spikes sticking in few corners of her head. She wears a maroon loose long-sleeve shirt over a black sleeveless turtleneck, dark denim shorts and maroon boots. This is Corona Cactaceae.

Gardenian

Corona Cactaceae

Dac and the girls then took notice of the Mississippi Trio, "Hey, you three" Corona greeted with a smile.

Kylie squealed in response before pulling Corona in a hug, "Eee! Corona!" she cheered however her face eventually touches the pricks of Corona's cactus hair, "Yeeeeowwwcchhh!" she yelped in pain which was heard all over towards the lounge.

Kylie then let's go of Corona while rubbing her face, "Sorry about." the Gardenian apologized, "But you should've known better than to hug me." the cactus girl admonished.

Kylie let's out a slightly painful giggle, "You're right..." she acknowledged, "By the way, where are the three of you going?'' she asked.

Cloudia then flicks her hair, "Out to get some ice cream." she replied rather elegantly, "Which reminds me..." she uttered before floating down in front of Ozzy and then caressing his chin, "... would you like to come with us, Oz-Spin..." she offered, "... I know an ice cream flavor that will make you melt." she offered with a luscious whisper to his ears with Ozzy letting out a dumb lovestruck smile.

Corona then grabs Cloudia's cloud and quickly pulled her away from Ozzy, "That's enough flirting, Cloudia." the Gardenian chastised, "Less Ozzy looses his mind and by extension his brain..." she uttered in annoyance, "... we'll see you guys later." she expressed before dragging away the Aerosolian.

"Bye guys!" Dac followed before walking off.

Cloudia looks at Ozzy with a smile despite being dragged away, "Bye, Oz-Spin." she expressed with a wink.

"Bye...'' Ozzy uttered with a still dumbstruck smile while waving his hand as Suzie and Kylie looks at him weird to which he noticed, "What?" he asked.

Suzie crossed her arms, "Oz-Spin?'' she questioned.

"It's another nickname christened to me by Marcus which is cool." Ozzy answered, "She might got that from him." he assumed.

"I still can't believe that Aerosolian had a crush on you." Kylie said in disbelief.

Ozzy let's out a smug smile, "Well..." he uttered while slicking his hair back, "... that only proves that I'm a handsome stud." he claimed.

Suzie rolled her eyes, "You know what..." she uttered, "... never mind." she dismissed.

"Excuse me, got a second?" a voice interrupted and the trio turned around to see Korriana "Korri" Ramzyse walking towards them, much to their surprise.

"Hey, your one of the two Mandalorians we saw when you both arrived with Junior and the gang." Ozzy pointed out.

Korri grinned in response, "Eeyep!" she confirmed.

Ozzy then took notice of the lack of armor, "Uh..." he uttered, "... not to sound rude but where's your armor?" he asked.

Korri then let's out a hearty laugh, "My armor's back at the ship and it's okay, I understand your confusion." she replied, "I'm Korriana Ramzyse by the way, but you can just call me Korri." she introduced herself, "Anyway, I heard some screaming coming from over here, so I came to check it out, what happened?" she asked in concern.

"Oh! It was just Kylie." Ozzy answered, "She hugged Corona a minute ago and momentarily forgot that she's a cactus.'' he explained.

"Oh, I see." Korri acknowledged.

A minute later, Mississippi Trio alongside Korri entered the lounge area where they took notice of the crowd gathered around a certain part, "Uh, pardon for asking but what's goin on over there?" Ozzy asked.

Korri turned to where Ozzy was pointing at and she let out an amused chuckle, "Oh, that would be my little brother." she answered, "Let's go check it out." she beckoned as the trio followed Korri and along the way, Korri's pet Loth-cat Tamee went to her and rode her shoulder.

Upon arriving at one part of the lounging area, they saw a crowd gathered around and Korri sweat drop at the sight, "Hehe! Guess Lukz really enjoys playing that game." she mused.

"Why? What is it?" Ozzy asked.

"My brother likes playing the game Cubikahd and he discovered a similar game called Checkers and for some reason, he keeps winning." Korri explained.

The four approached the gathered crowd and saw Lukz Ramzyse playing a round of checkers against Hector Vanguard Jr. while Dax the pit droid was acting as referee.

"Checkmate." Lukz declared.

Junior grinned in response, "Wow! You're new at this yet you're already a pro!" he complimented, "Are ye sure that you're not cheating if you know what I mean?!" he pointed out with a teasing grin.

Lukz chuckled in response "No, I didn't read your mind, where's the fun in that if I did so?" he replied to which Junior nodded in acknowledgement, the two the shook hands before Junior stood up and left his seat.

Dax then leaned to Buzzer, "How many is that?" he asked and Buzzer beeped in response and viewed Lukz' number of victories, "25 VICTORIES!" he exclaimed, "Who's next?!" he shouted looking amongst the crowd, "Who's next to challenge the undefeated champion Lukz Ramzyse~!" he said quite dramatically which made the Ramzyse siblings sweat drop.

"Daaax..." Lukz wailed with a deadpan look.

"What? Everyone loves you!" Dax pointed out casually with a shrug.

Junior walked passed Ozzy, "He's good, I'm tellin ya." he said with an impressed look.

Ozzy grinned in response, "Heh..." he scoffed while cracking his knuckles, "Alright ya'lls! Stand back!" he announced, "It's mah turn ta take him on~!" he declared before bravely marching towards Lukz while cracking his neck.

Korri snickered, "He's going to get destroyed." she said.

Suzie nodded in agreement, "Hai." she uttered with a blank look.

"Hmm..." Kylie hummed, "I wonder what Joey's doing right now?" she wondered out loud.

Meanwhile in another hallway somewhere in the Training Camp, we see Joey walking in a dim-litted hallway with frustration clearly written on his face but he was not alone as the Creepy Guy is seen walking towards him.

"Keh-keh-keh!" the Creepy Guy chortled, "How-ya-doing Joey?!" he greeted, "What's-eating-you?" he asked, "Frustrations?'' he assumed with a creepy smile.

Joey then proceeds to walk past the creepy-looking guy, "I'm not in a mood for a conversation." he growled.

The Creepy Guy then let's out a creepy giggle, "Be-a-careful of whom-you-push away..." he advised, "... he or she-might-become your-a-enemy.'' he stated before disappearing in the darkness.

Joey stopped walking before turning around to see the creepy-looking guy is gone, "What the heck does he mean?" he uttered in confusion.
