With their mission complete Team Natsu return to the guild

Chapter 11 Start

Alex walked away from the body. He looked over at the other bandit that he had stabbed in the chest. He wasn't moving anymore, his chest wasn't moving.

"Hmmm...Looks like even though I missed his heart he still died. Oh well." He started to walk again. Erza stepped in front of him.

"Alex, why did you kill both of them?"

"They hurt one of our allies, and killed many others, they didn't deserve life."

"We were told to capture them!"

"I saw that job request, it said dead or alive." Alex walked past Erza and grabbed the bracelet.

"Fairy Tail doesn't kill people, we let the Magic Council deal with them."

"They came at us with the intention to kill, I had to match their intention. If you are going to fight someone and they want you dead, you have to go at them like you will kill them as well."

"Alex-"

Alex claws appeared and he moved them a half inch from Erza's face "If you have a problem with my methods then say so right now and I'll prove they work."

"We'll talk to the Master about this when we return to the guild."

"You say it like I'm afraid of him. Let me make one thing clear. Alex Mclean fears no one."

"You might want to wait before you say that."

"I fear no one. Also you might want to pick Wendy up off the ground." Alex put the bracelet back on and walked back to where they would get a ride back to town.

"I can't believe him..."Gray muttered

"He saved Wendy and then reverts to his normal personality." Lucy pointed out

"We'll handle this...but we have to get the client here to confirm that we did the job." Erza pointed out.

-An Hour Passes-

The 6 mages were on the Waggon heading back to Fairy Tail and Wendy was still passed out and Natsu was suffering from motion sickness.

"So the client said we did the job, but he said we didn't need to be so violent." Erza said, looking at Alex.

"They deserved what they got." Alex said looking at the passing scenery.

"You need to learn to hold back Alex." Gray said.

Alex rose his left wrist "That's what this is for." He said gesturing to his bracelet "I take it off when I need to use my full force."

"You didn't need all-"

"What I did is done with, get over it."

Before another word could be said Wendy groaned and she opened her eyes, she looked around a little confused.

"Where am I?" She asked no one in particular.

"You're in a waggon, we're heading back to Fairy Tail." Lucy told her. Wendy started to sit up.

"Wendy, don't do that." Alex warned her.

"Huh? Why?"

"You're shoulder. It's still cut from my move, any movement with that arm will hurt, so if you sit up and put weight on that arm...it will hurt."

She looked at her shoulder "Oh yeah, you saved me didn't you?"

"You could say that, but if I let you die I would have never hear the end of it."

"Thank you for saving me." She said with a smile.

Alex didn't turn to her "I don't need thanks for saving an ally. But you're welcome I guess."

For the rest of the ride Alex stayed silent, ignoring the others even if he was talked to.

The mages had returned and now stood outside of the Fairy Tail guild. They walked in and everyone turned to see who was coming in. Makarov was at the front talking to a white haired woman, Mirajane Strauss, sister of Elfman. When they came in he turned around to them.

"So how did the mission go?" He asked walking up to them.

"We completed the mission...but something unexpected happened. Alex, explain."

Alex stepped forward "The bandits are dead. I killed them both."

"You do know that Fairy Tail captures, not kills right?"

"They didn't deserve to live. Not only were they coming at us with the intention to kill, but they also poisoned Wendy. Punish me if you wish." Alex said walking to a table and sitting.

"Wendy was poisoned, not much of a problem since she can heal it." Makarov said mostly to Erza.

"This poison was different. It stopped magic flow so she couldn't heal it herself."

"Then who healed it for her?"

"Alex managed to extract the poisoned blood out of her body before it spread too far."

"Well then I guess I should thank him for saving her." Makarov turned to where Alex was "Um...where is he?" Alex had disappeared.

"I don't need to be thanked for saving an ally." Alex repeated to himself, as he walked to his rented house. Alex had gotten his share of the reward already, and decided to look around since his rent was already payed for the month. He looked in various shops and didn't find anything that interested him very much.

-2 1/2 hours pass.-

Alex finally returned to the guild and Natsu instantly saw him.

"Where did you run off to?" He shouted from across the guild.

"No where that you need to know." Alex now had a sheath, with a hilt of a Katana sticking out of it.

Makarov called to Alex from the front "Alex, come here."

"What do you want?" Alex said walking towards him.

"Sit down." Makarov said gesturing to the chair beside him

Alex sits "What?"

"About your mission today. Did you really have to kill them?"

"My magic specializes in killing, not capturing. If you can't accept that then either kick me from the guild, or don't send me on missions where I need to capture someone."

"I'm not going to kick you. Just try and control yourself."

"No promises."

"Alex, you want to regain your memories, correct?"

"I've told you that before."

"Then since you are a Dragon Slayer maybe talking to the other ones would help you, maybe even help you find out about your dragon. I'll tell you what I know. Natsu's, Gajeel's and Wendy's dragons all disappeared on the same day. Maybe talking to them might help you remember a little."

"I don't need them to help me regain my memories." Alex got off and walked towards the guild door.

Alex place his hand on the door ready to leave, but for some reason he hesitated. He turned and saw that Natsu, Gajeel and Wendy were close together, this would be the best chance. Despite the fact that he wanted to leave he found himself turning and walking towards them. As he got closer Wendy looked at him and smiled. Natsu and Gajeel also looked up.

"What do you want?" Gajeel asked rudely.

"I just want to talk." Alex said.

"We have nothing to say to you."

"Look, if I had a better choice I wouldn't be here, you three are the only Dragon Slayers I know of."

"You want to know something of Dragon Slayers?" Natsu asked, surprising not angry, more curious.

"Yes. Seeing as how I am one and I don't remember much, I'm hoping talking with you three might trigger a memory."

"So you want us to tell you what?" Gajeel said.

"Tell me anything that seems important."

Natsu spoke up "Well, all of our dragons disappeared on the 7th of July during the year X777, without a word, leaving us to fend for ourselves."

Alex felt something but no memories came "X777. What else?"

"No one has heard anything about any of the dragons." Wendy added.

"We are trying to find hints about where they could have gone...but we have nothing." Gajeel said a little anger in this voice

"It's out goal to find them!" Wendy said

"Your goal. It's your goal to find out where your dragons disappeared to. What was my goal before I met the Blood Dragon..." Alex was asking himself "My goal-" A burning pain shot through Alex's head and he fell to his knees.

"Are you all right Alex?" Wendy asked kneeling beside him. This pain reminded Alex of the pain he got when he remembered his power as a Dragon Slayer, but this was much, much worse. His whole body was shaking from the pain, and even if he wanted to scream the pain prevented it. Alex's breathing became deeper and his vision became a blur, people were looking towards him and some even got up, worried about him. Makarov came over.

"What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know!" Wendy said, panicking a little.

"He's remembering something!" Gajeel said "But this time he's acting a little differently." Just as sudden as it started it stopped. Alex's breathing returned to normal and he fell flat on the floor. Alex was still conscious.

"Alex?" Wendy asked unsure if he was okay. After a few minutes he pushed himself back to his knees and the mages went back to their seats, now that he was okay. Alex got to his feet. His eyes were hard, like they were hiding something behind them.

"Did you remember something?" Makarov asked as he stood.

Alex took a few steps away and suddenly swung his fist into a table, snapping it in half.

"That son of a bitch!" He half shouted

"Alex!? What's wrong?" Wendy asked not coming closer. All eyes were on him, everyone seemed a little surprised by his sudden change in attitude.

"I remember...I remember all...I remember what happened before I met him..." Alex paused "My goal is to find Sanguis...and kill him!"
