To seek an end.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka studied with his focus fully on his work. Not a single thought of the female living in his house passed his mind, and if it wasn't for his decent memory, he would've probably forgotten that she was there.

About three quarters of the way though her work, Clare began to feel a sharp pain in her abdomen around her navel. Blinking, the wolf thought back to her fall. I landed flat... no time to catch myself... Getting up, Clare quickly washed her hands and lifted her shirt up a little, stopping when, all of a sudden, she saw blood. ... Oh God, I killed myself. Keeping a calm head, the wolf let go of her shirt and slowly made her way to Alka's study, where she knocked on the door.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka's ears perked up and he put down his pencil. Sighing, he rose and opened the door. "What's up?" he answered as soon as he saw Clare.

[Cifero Windtail]

Clare blushed lightly. "S-sorry to bother you, but.... Could you please look at my stomach?" she said, not sure how to phrase it.






(... Goodnight. I'm going to give my brain a rest and leave this on an awkward cliffhanger. Thank you for putting up with my tired mind, Alka. ^w^ You're a good friend.)

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

((It's no biggy, buddy. Rest well!))

Alka was a bit taken back by her comment, and blushed as well. "U-Umm... S-Sorry? Look at your... stomach...?"

[Cifero Windtail]

Clare nodded. "I... I may have injured myself falling," she said. "I got a pain in my... my navel a few minutes ago, and when I lifted my shirt a little I saw blood..." The wolf's blush deepened a little.



(Alka, I am so sorry. I thought I had posted. o/-/o)

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka sighed and motioned for her to come in. "You're lucky I'm doing a double degree, and one of them is medicine. Lie down on the bed, and I'll take a look. I doubt it's anything more than a small puncture of your flesh." Alka went into his closet an took out a large black case.

(... You read my mind, Alka.  [size=78%])[/size]


Tentatively, Clare walked into Alka's room, glancing around a bit nervously. I really hope it didn't tear... "That explains the ramen," she said, lying down Alka's bed and staring at the ceiling. Her face flushed a little. Huh... first time in a boy's room, and that's all I can think to say. "... What makes you think it's a small puncture, by the way?"

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka opened the box to reveal a large collection of various surgery tools, ranging from scalpels to pliers as well as a cleaning kit. Alka put on some gloves and a mask before responding to Clare's question. "Most piercings I know of aren't long enough to cause too serious of damage to the stomach or digestive track as a whole. Besides, you'd be in a lot more pain if it was anything more. All I'm going to do is disinfect the area an pull the piercing out. I need you to remain perfectly still. I'm obligated to tell you that this will hurt a fair bit, but as long as you don't jerk on it, you can squeeze my tail for relief." Alka pulled out a small, clear bottle of brown fluid as well as a small fluff ball to dab it in. In his other paw he held a set of long pliers.

Clare stared at Alka, a bit worried and a bit confused. How did he know I have my navel pierced? "W... what do you mean 'pull it out'?" she said, staying still.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka cocked an eyebrow. "Well, the pain isn't going to stop and the wound isn't going to heal until you get it removed. Unless you want your tissue to repair around the piercing, which will make it a lot more painful to get rid of later on." After giving the explanation, Alka walked over to the bed and pulled Clare's shirt up enough to reveal the navel. "Ok good. You actually do have a piercing." He began to examine the area while he poured a small amount of the brown liquid onto the fluff ball.

Clare laid her head back, not really wanting to see the damage. The wolf had gotten a black stud, which was now partially hidden in the tissue of her skin. "That was a guess, huh?" she said, trying to focus. "What gave it away?" Now that she was lying down, blood had started to pool in the wolf's navel.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

"The fact that I don't leave anything that can puncture flesh lying on the ground. And the fact that you have piercings elsewhere. Oh boy... This may be a bit more difficult than I thought." Alka got some clean tissues and use them to soak up the blood before he dabbed the disinfectant around her navel, not directly applying it to the wound. "Right, I'm going to need to ask if you trust me enough to creat small cuts in your navel and stitch them up. Because it appears that your piercing has been embedded in your flesh too much for me to safely yank it out."

Clare bit her lip slightly, then gave Alka a few solemn nods. "... Do it," she said, gently taking the wolf's tail in her hand. "Just... keep it precise, will you please? Not all my shirts are this long."
If I'd known it was gonna be this much trouble, I would never have gotten the damn thing.

[Dr. Alka Wolf]

Alka pulled his mask down a bit to reveal a warm smile. "Don't worry. Despite doing a double degree, I'm currently tying with 3 others for top of medical classes. You're in good, but unofficial hands." Alka place his mask back over his mouth as he pulled a small scalpel and looked at it for a second. After checking it for noticeable dirt he placed it near Clare's navel an looked at her. "I advise that you take deep breaths and focus on happy thoughts. And remember, no jerking on the tail. Not unless you want me to slice something I shouldn't have." Alka himself took a deep breath and began a small cut to the left of Clare's navel, aiming it towards her piercing.
