Yes, you read it right. This is the sequel, prequel, whatever you want it to be, to The Academy ;) It's not school anymore. Eri, Lila, Marcus, and Kazu have taken their first steps into reality...which is sometimes even stranger than the previews they'd seen in school. None of them are entirely sure what they've gotten themselves into. Oh, well, at least they have each other...right?

Sure, having a depressed friend isn't easy, and for Cam, he lives through it. Things have been changing lately though, and his attempts to help her mentally have been less effective. Things take a turn for the worst, and he has a run in with trouble.
