Anyways…I'm updating now because of a friend who keeps bugging me to update:pp so thank my friend!
Now let's begin…

Chapter 13
Everyone is sitting in the living room lazily, when someone crashes through the door.
Kankuro's PoV
My god…doesn't anyone knock anymore? We all turn to see the person panting. Well…it's Kari, so I guess she doesn't need to knock. She broke the door down though. Everyone looks at her expectantly. Kaki notices that she is panicked and has been crying.
"Kari? What happened?"
"Kitami…she…was…I don't know! She's in the hospital right now. They say she was attacked…but we don't really know what happened. Someone found her unconscious. I went to go see her…and…she doesn't look that good."
I look at Kari with shock clearly evident. I can't believe this…Kitami was attacked!
"Wait, what about the baby?" I ask.
She looks down and turns away. "They can't tell what's going to happen…they're just hoping that she doesn't miscarry." We all hear her whisper.
Everyone is standing there in silence.
I feel hopeless knowing I can't do anything to help her. I want to see her. No, I need to see her. I walk out of the place to clear my head. I walk along and the next thing I know, I'm in front of the hospital. I go inside and ask for Kitami's room.

Emiko's PoV
I am scared now. I can't believe that she's hurt. The last time she had to go to the hospital because she was hurt was when she was 13! I have to sit down. I'm shocked beyond imagination. I'm not scared for only Kitami, but for my unborn niece. If Kitami's miscarries…I don't know what will happen. She fell in love with her child the moment she found out she was going to have one. Sure it's only been a few months…but she already prepared everything for the baby.
Everyone is still very quiet. It seems like they're thinking the same thing as I am…Why and Who would do this…
I stand up and walk to my room. This silence is killing me. I'm about to close the door, but a hand stops it. I look behind me to see Gaara holding the door open. I smile softly and sit down on my bed. He sits besides me and holds my hand. The bed starts to shake behind us and we find Yuki jumping. If only she understood the situation huh.
I lay back with Gaara's hand still wrapped around mine. I close my eyes telling myself that Kitami will be fine. She'll be okay. The baby will be healthy, and everything will go back to normal.
"You okay?" I hear Gaara ask me.
I open my eyes to see him look at me with a hint of genuine concern.
"She'll be okay right? She's going to come home anytime now right?" I whisper.
He just stares at me and pulls me up. I hug him and my composure starts to break down. Tears fall from my eyes and I break down completely.
"It's not fair…"
"Hm? What's not?"
"She's in the hospital! She's a soon to be mother too! She should be home resting. Getting ready for the baby. Who cares if it's still months away." I say in between sobs.

Gaara's PoV
All I can do is let her cry. I sit on her bed holding her. She sobs start to die down and she eventually falls asleep. I tell that annoying little thing…I mean Yuki…to stop jumping around. I lay Emiko on the bed. A few strands of hair went astray and I tuck them behind her ear.
I lie down beside her and watch her sleep. I grow tired and fall asleep myself. Only one thing remains in my head before I fall asleep: How is Kankuro taking this…
