It's been 20 years since Muse disbanded. However memories of them still linger around the hallways of Otonokizaka High School. The school is no longer in danger of closing down. Ever since that day Muse became the second school idol group to win Love Live. The school gained so much notoriety and popularity. Pretty soon there was a huge turnout in the number of students applying for the school.

However this year's school opening takes a different turn. The date falls on the day Otonokizaka High School was on the verge of being closed down. If it haven't been for the late Honoka Kousaka and her friends. The school would have closed and all of its students will be forced to take entrance exams at other schools. This is also the day Kotori Minami-Sonoda assumes the position of Otonokizaka High School's Chairwoman.

Meanwhile in a house a few minutes from Otonokizaka High School. Haruka Kousaka-Kira is having one of her usual flashbacks as she looks at the picture frame of Tsubasa and Honoka in their happiest moment.

Flashback:

Mugger: Alright lady this is a stickup!
Just hand over your bag and nobody gets hurt.

Honoka: Haruka run!!! I'll take care
of this.

Haruka: But mama you'll get hurt.

Honoka: It's ok sweetie I still haven't
forgotten what I learned at the Police Academy.

Haruka tries to run but she's afraid to leave her mom alone. She decides to turn around and go back to her.

Honoka: Haruka I told you to run!!!

Haruka: I'm sorry mama. I can't leave
you. I promised papa that I won't leave you and I will protect you just like what you and Papa did to me.

Honoka: Haruka......

Mugger: Heh!!! Trying to be brave huh. Sorry lady I couldn't care less if you're a police officer. But since you are pretty maybe I can have a little fun time with you.

Before the mugger could even do as he wishes. Honoka throws a left hook at his face. The impact sends him off balance and nearly stumbles to the ground. This angering the mugger.

Mugger: Why you little bitch. Take
this!!! (pushes Honoka real hard)

Honoka was sent back stumbling to a wall. The impact causes her left shoulder to dislocate. Making her anguish in pain at that moment.

Honoka: Aaah!!! My arm!!!

Haruka: Mama!!! You bad man!!!
Take this!!! (kicks the guy's leg)

Mugger: Aaaahhh!!!! My leg!!! You
little bitch!!!! Say goodbye to your mama. (pulls out and fires his gun)

Honoka: Haruka!!! No!!!! Ahhh!!!!

Haruka: Mama!!! (Sees her taking the
bullet meant for her) She sees the wound on Honoka's chest.

Honoka: (Barely breathing) Y-you
(coughing out blood) I I won't let you hurt my daughter. (pulls out her 45
caliber pistol)

As Honoka takes aim for the mugger. She is slowly losing her grip on the gun. However she feels two hands lifting her right arm up. And hearing the voice of her daughter.

Haruka: Don't worry mama. Let me
be your strength this time.

Mugger: Aww...... What a touching......
