Drake sat next to the fire thinking. He didn't want to open up to them yet, but he wasn't going to be rude to them either. He looked down at his hands, "That is the gist of it I guess, but its a bit more complicated than that." He looked back up to them, " You see, when I touch someone or something, it saps their magical power, the stronger the contact, the stronger it pulls from the target. Normally, with my strength, I can sap all of someone's magic energy in one shot unless they have an abundance of power. The power that was taken from them is absorbed into my body, overall increasing my physical abilities. The stronger I get, the stronger I can sap energy. Your friend from earlier, must have had a plethera of energy available to him for him to be able to get back up. There is no doubt he is strong and can take care of himself."

"This however," he started pointing to the cuff on his arm, " this is something I had made for me a while back. It puts a lock on my powers so that it won't keep going while I don't need it. My power will also gradually get stronger if I don't make contact with anyone because I am making contact with the ground, if I take out too much energy in one area, it withers away, causing plant life to die and eventually a collapse of the ground around me. With this cuff, that power is inactive. If I put the cuff on with any extra energy, it will store its power as a weapon I can hit with once. It is one of my most powerful attacks, however, since my arm is in its normal state during this, it can cause serious injury to myself."

He paused to let it sink in for a moment while he considered himself telling a story. "I'm afraid I'm not much of a story teller."

Ander was at Fairy Tail for a while before he grew impatient. "[i] If they already captured him then where is he,[/i]" He thought.
He removed the large silver crystal from his side without touching it and stepped onto it with one foot. using it like a skate he flew through the air, the crystal seemlessly switching feet as he went toward the south gate.
