I can see the end of this arc, Avatar is defeated, but Gray still evil or appears to be evil and getting away. For some reason I see Mary at least, maybe Briar and Jerome, but Mary at least get away and that is Gray's version of Sasuke's little gang that traveled with him. Mary would be Karen the crazy fan girl chick with the glasses, Briar and Jerome would be those other two guys who I don't want to bother looking up their names on wikia.
