CHALLENGE TO A DUEL.

After 2 days of relentless celebration and much fanfare, the aftermath of the rank promotion ceremony finally subsided.

Clark was dressed in his new military uniform, as he prepared to report to the Spartan army base for the first time. His friends also got dressed in their various clothes, before proceeding to lead him out of the hotel that they booked.

For the past few days, they spent all their time going for a tour around the Spartan capital.

Today was the day that Clark was scheduled to resume duty and to get his rewards from the inquiry hall, so he did not tarry.

He quickly entered his car with his friends, before speeding across the road to the Spartan army base headquarters.

20 minutes later, they arrived at the periphery gate of the enormous city-like headquarters. After confirming their identity, they were allowed to continue speeding inside.
