It is well-known that translation schemes of prime order are exactly the cyclotomic schemes. In this paper, we show that there do not exist any two-, three-, or four-class nonsymmetric primitive translation schemes of prime square order. On the other hand, we find new nonsymmetric four- and five-class association schemes from cyclotomy as fission schemes of certain symmetric three-class association schemes. Moreover, we provide an affirmative answer to the following question raised by S. Y. Song [J. Algebr. Comb. 5, No. 1, 47--55 (1996; Zbl 0843.05103)]: are there any other two-class primitive association schemes that admit symmetrizable fission schemes besides the cyclotomic scheme of index 2 for $q \equiv 5$ (mod 8)? To be more specific, we show that a certain two-class primitive association scheme in the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{37^3}$ constructed by T. Feng and Q. Xiang [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. A 119, No. 1, 245--256 (2012; Zbl 1232.05031)] admits a four-class fission scheme. This fission scheme is realized as a fusion scheme of the cyclotomic scheme of index 28.
