It was Saturday, which meant the Nexo Knights were getting new armour, while Robin, Ava and Jestro were getting their shields. Robin had also fashioned the knights and Jestro new chainmail to wear.
“Wow, Robin, these are brilliant!” Macy told Robin Saturday morning. She looked at herself in the mirror. Stylish and practical, just the way she liked it. She caught sight of Clay staring at her in the reflection of the mirror, but he looked away as soon as she noticed, blushing. 
'He's so cute!’ she thought to herself as she watched him fiddle his sleeve. Then the sound of a bell rung through the air.
“Ok, knights!” announced Clay. He smiled around. The Nexo Knights, Ava, Robin, and Jestro all walked out into the Joustdome, where people from all over the kingdom were applauding them. Some people sent glares in Jestro's direction, and he bowed his head in shame. He regretted every action he did when he was evil. They arrived at the podium, where King and Queen Halbert were waiting. The king spread his arms wide.
“People of Knighton!” He shouted, his voice echoing around. “We are gathered here today to celebrate not one, but two things! First, our Nexo Knights-” loud applause issued from the stands. “-second, the graduates from the Knights Academy!” More clapping. Five squire-bots came waddling into the arena, all of them carrying a set of golden armour. It gleamed in the sunlight. They lined up in front of the knights, and handed them over. The knights turned, bowing to their king.
“Rise, knights, and let us move on.” The king smiled some more, and the knights stepped off the stage, so Ava, Robin, and Jestro could get on. As he stepped off, Clay spotted Phoebe and Merlok in the stands. Merlok was in his battle suit, which he used when he was outside the Fortrex, and Phoebe was stood next to him, smiling and clapping. She caught sight of Clay, and gave a little wave. 
“Sir Robin, Lady Ava, and Jestro! Congratulations on what you have achieved! You have earned this!” Five more squire-bots came out, two holding sets of armour, the remaining three carrying shields. The bots carrying the armour handed them to Robin and Jestro (Ava doesn't wear armour), then handed the trio their shields. The audience and the knights clapped as hard as they could, while the new knights turned to face the king and queen. They bowed, and the royals bowed their heads to acknowledge them. The trio raced off the stage, and stood next to their fellow knights.
“That is all for this afternoon, but remember the ball this evening!” Said the king, and everyone started filling out of the arena to get ready for the evening. Phoebe vaulted the stands, and ran across the arena to congratulate her friends, Merlok clunking along behind her. She threw her arms round her brother.
“Congratulations, knights!” Said King Halbert, walking towards the group. Phoebe pulled away from her brother as the king turned to her. “Phoebe, it's good to meet you.” Phoebe was surprised at being addressed to by the king. She did a neat curtsey.
“Nice to meet you too, your highness.” She said, eyes on the floor. The king went over to Merlok. 
“Hello, you must be Phoebe.” Stated Jestro, having heard about Phoebe from Clay. 
“Yes, and you must be Jestro.” She responded. Jestro nodded and stuck out his hand. Phoebe shook it.
“Guys, should we go get ready now?” Said Macy, and everyone nodded. Jestro parted with them, mumbling something about staying in the palace. They got outside the Fortrex.
“I should go to. All my stuff's at home. Bye.” Phoebe waved as she ran off to the woods. The knights went inside.
“Oh boy, I never thought I'd be getting an actual shield.” Was the first thing Robin said as he and Ava went to their rooms. Ava nodded happily.
“I know, right.” And they separated into their own rooms.
(Le time skip to when everyone's ready)
Robin walked into the downtime area, dressed in a light blue suit, with a cream coloured tie. 
(Robin's suit)
His eyes travelled to Ava, and his mouth made a perfect 'O’. She was wearing a simple purple dress, with silver slippers. Her hair was down as usual.(Ava's dress)

Robin went over to her.
“Wow.” He said breathlessly. “You look... amazing!” Ava blushed.
“Thanks, Robin. You look very nice too.” She looked at the floor. Robin looked at the rest of his friends; Lance was wearing a white-grey suit, Axl was wearing a black suit with a yellow tie, Aaron was wearing a deep green suit, tugging uncomfortably at his bowtie, and Clay was in a dark blue suit.
