7 Chapter 7: Going Home

Alex stood at the edge of the pier, looking out over the ocean he saw a ship moving further and further away but paid no attention to the ship but the figure at its rear.

Anne was standing there waving and she kept doing it even when she couldn't see him or the pier anymore. Although she couldn't see him he saw her clearly as she kept waving, causing Alex to smile warmly at the sight. Alex kept standing there until Anne finally stopped waving and went to do her duties. Alex sighed, turned around and started walking.

He wasn't walking aimlessly but with a goal, his destination the airport. Although walking wasn't the most time-conserving way to do it, Alex chose to anyway. "Since Anne is no longer with me I can finally start using my ability's again," thought Alex as he walked.

...

Alex finally arrived at the airport after a few hours of walking, entering the building he looked up to the electronic notice board to check which fights were going where and quickly found one to Japan that would be leaving in just over an hour. "Quite lucky," thought Alex as he started heading towards the indicated gate figuring he might as well go early.

Reaching the security check he just kept walking, when the guard tried to stop him Alex just gave him a glance and the guard returned to his position in a trance only to come out of it a few minutes later with no recollection of what happened. Walking past the guards Alex whispered to himself, "These are not the droids you are looking for", then chuckling at his internal joke.

Reaching the boarding aria, Alex closed his eyes and waited for the plain to arrive so that he can board it with the other passengers. The airplane arrived and he boards it without a hitch, he even finds an empty spot in the first-class cabin which he commandeers for himself, all the while the staff and security turn a blind eye.

The plane took off, on its way to Tokyo.

...

Alex comfortably sat in his chair while staring out the window, "Ahhh, charm magic truly is useful at some times", he thought. A knock came from outside the cabin and Alex answered giving the person permission to enter. Opening the door a flight attendant enters the cabin and gave him a smile before asking if there was anything that Alex need's, thinking for a while then answered, "Would you please bring me some champagne, thank you".

The attendant excused herself and went to fetch Alex's order while he just reclined in his chair enjoying some luxury, something he had not experienced in quite a few years. With a knock, the waitress entered the cabin with a bottle of champaign in a bucket and a champaign glass. The attendant quickly pours the campaign and gives's the glass to Alex, making sure he has everything he needs before excusing herself to attend to the other passengers.

Alex takes a sip of the champaign, then looked out the window while savoring the flavor of the alcohol. Alex quickly finished the bottle, calling an attendant over he quickly "persuaded" her to bring him another bottle, like that he spends most of his time in the plain, drinking and enjoying the view from the window.

Finishing his nt-teenth bottle the plane suddenly started shaking. Ignoring it at first thinking its nothing but some turbulence Alex comfortably declined in his chair to get some sleep, that is until the plane started shaking viciously. Alex quickly sat upright and looked out the window, he saw nothing but dark clouds and lightning striking all around the plain.

The captain's voice came from the intercom, "Ladies and gentleman we might experience some turbulence and slight electrical failure, please fasten your seatbelts. If you have any problems please ask the nearest attendant for help".

Alex sighed and lied back in his chair not paying the captain's warnings any heed. Even if the plain were to crash headfirst into a mountain he would be fine, the only thing that truly worried him was the other passengers and so just for safety's sake, Alex invoked a little spell around the plane to act as a barrier in case anything bad happened.

...

A few hours later the plane exited the storm and was greeted by clear sky's, making Alex sigh in relief, he had worried unnecessarily. Lying down in his chair Alex decided to sleep the rest of the trip, closing his eye's Alex quickly dozed off.

...

Opening his eyes, Alex heard something about landing, and with a bit of shacking the plane landed at Tokyo airport.

Standing up after a long flight Alex made his way out of the plain and airport all the while using the same technique he used getting onto the plain. Exiting the airport Alex quickly hailed a cab and got in. "Where to," asked the driver as Alex got in, "Kuoh town," said Alex and then further explain giving the address.

...

The car quickly left Tokyo behind and entered the countryside. Alex looked out the window enjoying the view. Alex started thinking, "I can finally get home. I really feel bad brainwashing so many people, but it was an emergency and I didn't fancy flying over as Mournomon, not only is his draconic aura nearly uncontrollable and one slip up could kill millions of people, I don't want the church to get wind of me. I don't know if they have way's to pick up Mournomons immense magickal signature even if he is invisible, I should also start thinking about my next move, it had been millennia since I last watched the anime and read the novel so I'm kinda in the dark, I have a good memory but asking me to remember something I watched or read a few million years ago is a bit much. Ahh, fuck it I'll just wing it as I go along, but if I remember correctly there is something important in Kyoto."

"Maybe, I'm overthinking things. I should just get home first and move from there." Alex thought while watching the passing cars, then a light came to his eye's as he screamed out loud, "I should go to hell!" drawing a strange gaze from the cab driver, Alex quickly apologized for his outbreak before thinking of ways to get himself to hell, "If I remember correctly, Kuoh town is still under the administration of that other devil woman that banged and exorcist or something like that. Since that's the story I can just "ask" her "politely" to show me the way" thought Alex.

...

After a few hours of driving, they finally reached Kuoh town, driving some more the car stopped and Alex got out of the car looking at his house, "Everything looks in order, at least Yris didn't fuck this up." thought Alex as he walked toward his house not bothering with the cab driver, who for "some" reason didn't mind a just drove off.

The house looked almost identical to Issei's home and so did all the houses down the street so Alex couldn't really complain. Turning the nob he found the door was Locked, this didn't de sway him as he tapped the lock with his index finger causing a click to come from the lock as it was unlocked. Opening the door Alex entered his home for the first time, it was a bit dusty since nobody has lived there for a while but Alex didn't mind since he could easily clean the house, but that was for another time. His gaze was pulled to a table in the hallway with a wallet and a little booklet waiting there.

Grabbing the booklet he found it was his Id papers then he turned his attention to the wallet and opened it, inside there was a single golden card with a pin taped to it. Remembering the pin, Alex removed the taped paper and with a flash from his hand, the paper turned to ash.

Looking around Alex smiled, "Well, I'm home" he thought but was quickly distracted when he heard his doorbell rang.
