Celebratory Occasion

Later that day. 

Grey's house. 

Grey was sitting down, reading a book he just took from the Faction's Library on arrays. He didn't have time to waste, he still had to think of a way to remove the mark on his back. 

He was still reading when he sensed someone coming into his place, before long, he heard a knock on his door. Dropping the book, he walked over to the door. 

Opening it, he saw Alec standing outside with a smile. 

"You're not going?" Alec asked when he saw Grey's state. 

"Going where?" Grey asked with a confused expression. 

"The ceremony the Faction Leader spoke of." Alec couldn't believe Grey had forgotten about the ceremony they spoke about earlier that day. It hadn't even been up to three hours yet, and Grey has forgotten about it. 

"Ceremony…" Grey paused and tried to think, he soon recalled the Faction Leader speaking of a ceremony to celebrate the victory.
