{1/5}

Alexander walked into the ruined capital of stone. The area was milling with people and he looked at the man he had met on his previous mission. He nodded towards the man and smiled for a moment. The man looked at him slightly pale faced as he pointed to a grim looking notice. "There was an accident at the hospital you helped build. It, it collapsed" He said in a shaky way Alexanders eyes started to sink slightly as he thought of the men that he had help build it. "W-who was there?" The man shook his head grimly as he pointed to the pictures of a few men who where missing. "You chose a bad day to take this grim task young man" He said and in a flash Alexander was all ready moving towards the hospital without the man giving him any notice.

He moved through the capital of stone he wind piercing his ears his wings flapping and loosing feathers at every third beat. He thought greatly for a moment as his blackey blue wings. The swooped down an equipment stall and stopped very quickly panting slightly as he did. He hadn't flown this fast ever and he still even though he had been flying for a few days now wasn't used to his wings as much as he could be. He grabbed a Handful of tools when one man looked at him laughing. "Just leave em be, let em die no one cares about them" He laughed at Alexander. Who for a moment appeared to ignore that mans attempt at riling him but then as he walked past. Gave him a swift back handed punch to the head sending the man a few feet backwards. "I don't have time for scum"

Raising his wings up he shot off into the distance. Making his way to the hospital as fast as He could he would soar through the sky beads of sweat dropping from his face as he did. He wondered for a few moments abut what he was going to do when he got there but that soon faded as he was more concerned about getting the men he worked with out of the rubble. He was so angry that he didn't help them. He was so angry that he didn't get here sooner. He simply blamed himself as he couldn't help but feel that there was some of his work hat would have caused the collapse.

Alexander would fly through the stone capital to come across what would appear to be nothing more than a large pile of rubble but there was no mistaking it was the hospital that Alexander had helped build. The air smelled the same and the tree that he had sat in eating his lunch was the same he knew it and his heart sank when he saw something he had gifted to a small child. He waited for a momenty and then he picked up a pic axe and looked at a large piece of stone that many men where treying to shift. "Move!" He yelled in a deep husky voice as he took a few stepd back then with his immence strength he ran towards the rock. Jumping upwards he smashed it with the pick axe reducing the thing to rubble. "This is going to take forever I know it is" He exclaimed in a paniced voice as he fell to his knee's and started to scramble at the rocks. His callased hands shifting the rocks as fast as he could, large, small he didn't care he lifted them all his bodies strength that he used to curse a blessing as it allowed him to move quickly.

His eyes where starting to burn from the dust from the building when he could start to almost sense the presence of another human being, he wasn't sure what this sixth sense was but he wasn't about to let his instincts pass him by. He shoveled his hands into the rubble he could feel a small nick come from a jagged rock as he shifted it out of the way. He shovled the rocks with his hands his blood slowly seeping from more and more wounds as he was determined to remove the rock. A few people started to stare at him as he shoveled this rock. He was completely focused on getting this person out his teeth gritted as the rocks slowly build up in a pile around him. Soon he would come across a person and he would smile for a moment. It was a face he recognized and it was also one that was breathing, The group around him made a sigh of release as he pulled the man out from the rubble. It was the leader of the group and Alexander instantly asked a question of him.

Alexander looked at the man his green eyes focusing in on what the man was to say. "Where is Jackie?" He asked as the man coughed slightly. "Where is he!" He yelled. The man pointed to a direction in the ruined hospital. Alexanders heart sank for a minute then the man said somthing that was going to comfort him. "Several of us where working there at the time" He muttered. Alexander was slightly comforted as he knew that all the men he worked with would do there best to make sure that Jackie was protected and Alexander also knew that there was a limit on the amount of time they could protect him from the rubble and he wasn't going tow waste any of it as he focused on his next task at hand. He jumped up and glided towards the area where the young boy would be found and he was sure that he would find him. No he wasn't sure he was going to find him and that was the end of the matter and Jackie was going to be alive. Alexander was going to make sure of it.

He moved towards the pile of rubble and he stood there for a few moments and then he started to rip the rubble apart. He used his bare hands and he focused every ounce of strength he had into the removal of the rubble. He watched carefully for a moment as he started t5o think about the rocks he started to yell "Any one down here?" He was yelling as loud as he could when he could just about hear the coughing and wheezing of someone and they responded if a little weak at first. "Y-yes where here" He could here and Alexander wasn't about to stop so he started to work even harder. He could here the screaming of a small child as well the child was younger than Jackie or so he would assume but he knew that he would save anyone he could as his hands started to become slightly bloody and start to drip with blood as he removed the rubble, his nails became slightly cracked with all the pressure he was putting his hands under.

Alexander focused quickly on the people he was trying to rescue his hands bleeding heavily as he was focusing only on keeping them alive. He didn't care about his own well being as a life cannot be returned but the use of his hands could be. He watched the rubble as his hands scratched away at the stones, his hands would meld around the stones and he would lift them up with as much strength as he could muster. His eyes focusing intently on each and every rock as beads of sweat dropped from his face his arms tired and aching the lactic acid in his system burning away at his cells as he had expended all of his energy but he wasn't going to give up as he could feel the burning within his muscles he knew that he was working himself too hard and that he could damage himself but he didn't care and he was determined to get throgh to the people underneath him. He was determined to get them out. The hospital had indeed caved in but not in its entirety and Alexanders moving was putting the wall that was still standiung at risk but he didn't care.

He looked as some one started to yell out. "Blood There is blood down here. Whoever is up there getting us out be quick. Get us out quickly some one is bleeding. "Alexanders eyes started to widen, his pupils started to shrink. Who's blood was it? Was it the small child he had heard? Was it Jackies? He didn't know but he was even more determined now and his own bleeding seemed nothing at all it seemed meaningless at the cost of another life so he focused all his strength into his arms as he panted heavily thinking about so many things as he did.

Alexander's hands where starting to ache as he was using them so hard and the joints had popped several times under the strain. he was really abusing his hands at this moment in time and he was sure that he would pay the price at a later date. But as his ethos would not allow him to care he just kept on burrowing until he came to a rather sizable rock or lump of wall he didn't really pay attention when he couldn't lift he yelled down tot he survivors. "Try and move out of the way if you can" He tensed up his weakened muscles and punched the rock as hard as he could. The rock or wall initially didn't do anything but Alexander exasperated at his efforts did it two or three more times until he could see the rock collapse. Then one of the people yelled out. "I can see some light!!" Alexander quickly shoved as much rubble out of the way as possible and got towards the people. Jumping down into a small cavity he knew that he was going to find a group of people but disaster also loomed ahead for the Shinobi and his body would be put to the test as he managed to exhaust himself very quickly.

Alexander jumped into the hole that he had created to find a small chamber of what appeared to be rock and he smiled looking at a stone ninja who had gotten thee just in time. He was creating a small barrier and Alexander was glad that about four or so people in this barrier where safe but he couldn't help with giving the ninja chakra of any form so eh decided he would try to get the people out as quickly as possible. The ninja looked at him smiling with a few beads of sweat dripping from his forehead and Alexander knew that he would have to get these people out of here as soon as possible. He called over to the others and they would rush over. "We have some people here we need to get them out asap" He would yell as a group of people would walk over towards him and He was panting heavily as he looked at them.

He started with the smallest child as he lifted her up gently and a man or woman took her quickly upwards and out of the hole. Then he moved onto the bleeding member inside this area. It was a young woman about Alexanders age and she had broken her leg. Alexander picked her up gently and then jumped out of the hole. He passed the girl over to another man who would take her to the relief hut and he smiled for a minute as he jumped back down hoping that he would be able to get everyone out with very little fuss. He picked up the next two people and all that where left where Himself, Jackie and the Shinobi from stone. Alexander put his hands on the top of the barrier. "Jackie get out now, its too risky for you to stay in here" He said as the small boy would listen.

Alexander then instructed the shinobi to move out while he would break his way out with his fists. The shinobi reluctantly agreed as regardless he was going to loose his control of the earth jutsu. Then when the shinobi left something happened that was defiantly going to put a strain on Alexander. The one remaining wall of the hospital would collapse just as the stone nin would leave and Alexander would have to really work his way out of this. His arms felt the strain of an entire days work in just a few seconds as sweat poured out of his skin. He knew that he was going to be done for if he didn't manage to get out of this. Alexander had only one choice. He pushed the wall up. He was given a few seconds and with all of his power he smashed the wall above him away. But it wasn't enough. He caught it again in just enough time. Is this the end? when suddenly the wall would collapse over him and two stone shinobi's would be standing there one of them expelling a lot of chakra from his fists. It was two medics

They quickly dragged Alexander out and dealt with his injuries and then he would move along towards stone and hopefully a rest.
