Although everyone else seemed to be obtaining weapons with which to defend themselves, Alex set about doing so himself, but first used a nearby phone to call the Police about the deaths, as well as an Ambulance to recover the bodies of Joey and Martijn for autopsy. With the proper authorities notified and ready to provide assistance as necessary, he found himself worried that he may have left himself open to dying next by doing so.
With that, Alex decided it would probably be best to stick with the others- he knew getting caught out alone with a killer on the loose would be asking for it. However, he had brought a recently-sharpened Kukri* with him just in case he'd ended up in the jungles of Bermuda at any point, so he took it with him- attaching its sheath to his belt just before rejoining the group.
*This is a type of machete-like knife that originates from Nepal, known for its curved blade and association with the Gurkhas.
