*Sorry it has taken so long, but I've been rather busy. Plus I lost focus for a little while. Sorry it's small, but I like to give the story in interesting bits, I think we're building towards the end soon. If you want more stories about Alex Westhand leave a review or PM me, if you have any other stories you want me to do, same thing.*
Percy didn't react as quickly as he should have. The Doctor was in the forest before he'd even processed the movement.
"Annabeth!"
Percy wasn't sure what to do about this, stay on watch or chase after the Doctor and Alex.
"What is it Percy?" Annabeth was exasperated
"The Doctor just took off into the woods again."
"We can't do anything about that, our job is to protect the camp from these things."
"I guess, but it feels selfish to let him run in there alone."
"If anybody will be okay out there it's him Percy."
"I guess you're right..." Percy trailed off.
Alex was moving quietly, he wasn't wearing any armor, but that wouldn't have an effect if he got caught by the Angels. He listened intently for the faint sliding noise that signaled a nearby Angel. He drew his sword quietly and whipped around bring the sword with him. His arc sliced straight through the center of the Angel, it exploded and swirled into the sword.
The Doctor heard the scraping noise of metal on stone and recognized it as Alex's sword. He sprinted in that direction, he kept checking and double checking his screwdriver for any sign of an Angel. He could see Alex up ahead in the clearing, it took him only a moment more to notice the swirling cloud of stone particles being absorbed by the sword. The Doctor froze in fascination and fear, he didn't like weapons, or killing. But that thing was able to destroy some of the most dangerous beings in the universe with ease, and that helped people. The less Angels there were in the universe, the better off the universe was right?
Alex could sense the Doctor standing at the opposite end of the clearing, he also noticed the four different Angels moving in behind him. Alex raced toward the Doctor who started to flail and throw his arms up blathering about friendliness. The Doctor blinked twice when he noticed how close the Angels had been to getting him, he had been to busy thinking, it nearly cost him.
"Why are the Angels here?" Alex asked no one in particular.
"I think I know." The Doctor had finally figured it out.
