Noticing Yuviel has gone unconscious Alex stood up and walked over to his bed where she was, gently nudging her but getting no reaction he was sure she was asleep. Smiling as he walked back to his desk he thought how he should thank the nurse later.
Coming back to his desk he inspected the small bowls and made sure they were ready for use. He pulled out the contents of the medical bag and neatly sorted them on the desk.
Alex took of his tank top and threw it away towards the quite big pile of used clothes he put near the window. Grabbing one small bowl and two needles as well as one bandage he walked back to Yuviel.
Leaving the stuff he was carrying on the edge of the bed he slipped out of his sneakers and climbed on the bed, sitting or better said kneeling over her legs.
Looking at her bear back gently pulled her pantsu down a few inches to make her lower back more accessible. Grabbing one of the needles he broke the plastic that covered it and pulled the needle out.
Holding the needle in his hands he soaked the tip of it in the small bowl next to him and placing his left hand on Yuviels back neared the needle in his right to her skin.
All the runes on Alexander's body started glowing faintly, softly illuminating the room in a red colour, getting more focused towards his hand, the needle he held seemed to glow on its own as well.
Starting his work with incredible precision, the movements of his hand couldn't be seen with human eyes. Alex started drawing a small jagged circle on her back, each sting of the needle he held would leave a small pulsating red circle on her skin.
Only stopping to replenish the ink on his needle, Alex started breathing heavily, sweat drops started going down his face and body. He was glad she was asleep and didn't feel the needle and the magic inside the ink puncture her skin and make place for themselves. Her body however, did, as sweat drops started appearing on her body as well.
Couple of minutes after Alex finished with the outer circle of the rune. Placing the needle in the almost empty bowl he took the bandage and gently wiped off the blood and excess ink, leaving the bandage on her back to soak it up for a little while.
Alex got off the bed, shaking his right hand to prevent it from going numb and unresponsive. He walked to the desk and placed the used bowl there and picked up the other one, as well as a the rest of the needles. All this time the runes on his body remained active, faintly glowing.
Coming back to the bed he placed the new bowl next to her and went back to the same position, wiping off the sweat from his forehead with his left hand. Alex opened a new needle, soaking it in the new ink he took a deep breath and started working on inner part of the rune.
Drawing the symbol in an ancient language, that looked quite similar to japanese kanji, in the middle of the jagged circle. Once he finished the symbol itself he needed to connect it with the outer circle. Wiping off the sweat from his face again he took a new needle and wiped off the the blood and ink that came out from his new work.
The runes on his body started glowing more and more as he continued his work on her back, getting exhausted from the usage of his energy but satisfied at the progress of his work at the same time. A bitter-sweet smile appeared on his face as he was doing the last few lines on her skin.
Dipping the needle in the ink for the last time he went back to jagged line where he stopped. Smiling as he connected the last line with the outer edge a small and faint but noticeable blue pulse went across Yuviel's body. The rune was finished.
Breathing heavily Alex dropped the used needle in the bowl, his runes finally going back to their dormant state, and picked up the other bandage. Gently wiping off everything on the rune and around it he threw the bandage away. Grabbing the last bandage he carefully and gently wrapped it around her waist and her back, covering the rune.
Alex remembered when she said she doesn't scar, and if his assumptions about her were correct, she would recover quite fast.
Exhausted from the work he's just done, sweat covering most of his body and his hair, Alex just let himself drop down on his side on the bed next to the sleeping beauty beside him.
