Chapter Two: Family rules

The Alarm proved to be the real thing and not a drill. Alec's voice spoke clear into the communicator "All units this is NOT a drill. Each unit form a three man team and meet at the center of the forest. Roberts sent some droids to attack. Everyone else is ordered to lock down and do NOT make any moves until you get further instructions from me. Alright everybody move out."

Dean took Ben and Melissa and the others went inside locking down the building while the children were placed in a safe room.

Dean, Ben and Melissa met the others at the rendezvous point. Alec wasn't pleased when Dean showed up. The first thing he did was point and Ben and growl "Question my orders even once and I'll bust your ass when this is all over. We don't have time to waste."  He turned to the north team "Jasper, Jules, Zero you three take the droids on the west end. They won't expect that. " They took off and Alec turned to the west team "Todd, take Bullet and Richelle and take the droids on the north end." they each took off after their orders.
Not Alec turned to the east team "You three take out the droids in the south end. Move out." he ordered and they went into action.
While Alec, Max and Zack took out the droids in the east end.
When they were done all three members checked the east end doing recon on the place to see how it was doing. Alec got word from the north and west team and gave them instructions to wait until east team reported back just in case they needed help.
Then relief filled all of them as they heard Melissa's voice "Um. Sir, we've got a major problem here."
The relief was instantly gone "report." Alec said wanting more information.
"This wasn't an attack. It was a trap." Melissa said sounding really upset.
"I'm gonna need more information then that little girl. What happened?" Alec demanded.
Melissa didn't want to be the one to say this. Ben took the communicator "They knocked us out. When we came to Dean was gone. We think they came here to capture him. Their headed east on the main road still. "

"We're on our way." Alec said taking off fast and Max was right at his side. Zack followed and they made it to Ben and Melissa in record time. Then Alec leaped into the air landing on the hood of the van and smashed his fist through the window cause the driver to pull to the side and stop to avoid a crash. Alec got off and dragged the man out of the car and knocked him out.
Max jerked the steal doors open and stared in shock as a man had a gun pressed against Dean's head.
Alec saw it now too and tried to remain calm "Take it easy. This doesn't have to end the wrong way. your outnumbered. If you pull the trigger your just gonna piss me off to a level you really don't wanna see. I'll make you a deal. We'll make a trade. You let him go. And we'll let you both leave alive. But make no mistake. Your NOT taking him."

The gun in the man's hand shook. He feared the X-5's and knew they were right. This was a suicide mission. "We have orders." he said.

"Is it worth dying over? Because please believe me. I will kill you before I let you take him anywhere. " Alec said calmly and Alec saw it a moment too late.
Dean moved fast and hard. He ducked from the man's grip then turned breaking his arm causing him to cry out and drop the gun. Alec grabbed him before he could do anymore damage. "That's enough!"

Then Alec threw him at Max and went over to the man kneeling before him "Sorry, he doesn't really know how to listen all the time. While I have you hear I have a question for you. Why was it your mission to capture him?"

The man choked a little "I don't know honest. I only knew Roberts wanted him. Said he would use your kid against you."

Alec was filled with rage. NOBODY knew that Dean was his child. Nobody accept for him and Max and they had lied to Dean just to keep it a secret. This is why they had never wanted anyone to know. They had too many enemies. 
He leaped from the van after taking the gun and everyone watched in shock as Alec slammed the other man against the van and shoved the gun against his throat "If you EVER come near my son again I promise I'll show you how NOT worth it this little game your playing is! You don't threaten a man's kid."

Dean was too shocked to think. Alec and Max were his parents? He could see the logic in wanting to hide it....but why admit it now?
Roberts nodded frantically vowing to never come near the boy again. Alec then used the gun to knock him out hitting in the head with it.

Then he stormed away "Everyone back to your base. " he ordered
Ben was there by Dean's side as they started back to their base.
This was one revelation they had never wanted confirmed.

Later that night at east base Dean lay in his barrack's when his door opened. He glanced over and when he was Alec he sat up on the bed.

"What are you doing here?" he asked since this was east base.

"You disobeyed me." Alec said simply.

Dean paled "When?"

"I got the report from Melissa. She told me that she lied. They captured you because you were stupid enough to go looking for them. I told you to destroy the droids. NOT to go find Roberts. What the hell were you thinking!"  Alec lectured more then angry at the boy.

Dean knew he was screwed "I know it was stupid but I thought that maybe if I could find him then I could figure out what he was up to. I left Ben and Melissa as they were fighting the droids. There were find on their own so I went to look for Roberts."

Alec's gaze turned to ice "So not only did you disobey an order but you abandoned your unit in battle?" his tone could have frozen hell.

"yes sir. I'll take whatever punishment you deem fit for this. I know I crossed the line." he said not brining up the whole father thing yet.

Alec remained silent for a moment then solemnly nodded "Stand up and take those trousers down soldier." Alec instructed sternly.

Dean grimaced but then nodded and stood up "Yes sir." he took down the trousers and his undershorts as well when he saw Alec nod at those too.

Alec then took his hand from behind his back where he had been holding the ruler. And Dean paled.
The ruler in Alec's hands should be called a lethal weapon.
And when Alec used that thing there were results!
"Now turn and place your hands on the bed." Alec instructed and Dean turned obediently and bent over til his hands were on the bed. Then he felt Alec's hand on his back then Alec's words which filled him with shame "The next time you think about disobeying my orders or ditching your team during battle, you think about this first." Alec told him then it started.
Brutal and merciless the ruler landed in snaps so fast and so hard that Dean never had time to recover before being forced to feel the next and the sting slowly became an intense burn his backside turned a dark shade or Red before Alec paused. He could see Dean's shoulders hunched and could see the strain from the boy trying to not cry. "We've talked about this before. Punishment is suppose to hurt. Its okay to cry. Its okay to scream and holler. Just don't move out of position or try to hold in what you feel. You know I won't tolerate that." Alec said then added "And this is gonna just keep going until I see some repentance and cooperation." then his arm circled Dean's waste and held tight as he snapped the ruler down again touching every inch of Dean's backside striking skin already well blistered. Dean did cry. And he did scream after several more minutes of this merciless punishment.

Alec stopped then and gently helped Dean lay stomach down on his bed and watched as he cried brokenly. Then he sighed and knelt down placing the ruler aside "Don't make us repeat this lesson. We'll talk later about what I said to Roberts." he added then walked out of the door.

Alec never had stayed to coddle the boy and he never would. Not after a spanking. If you deserve it then your gonna get it and get no sympathy from daddy. Alec didn't enjoy spanking and he was often annoyed or disappointed when he had to do it but he never felt bad afterwards either. He had done his duty.

Alec did a check around East building then headed to Ben's quarters where he gave Ben a good dose of the Ruler as well for his attitude lately then stopped by Melissa's quarters ordered her mate out and then gave her a small taste of the ruler as well for lying to him.

Then he went back to his base.
