Pakkun POV
It was the next day and Valentine was still sitting here.
"Valentine you need to get out, come one lets go." I said.
"I want to stay." She said quietly.
"You got no sleep and I am going to make sure you eat, lets go." I said a bit more forcefully. She flinched as if it hurt to hear my words, I hated being hard with her but she needed to get away from here. She nodded and stood up,
"Alright… I'll come." She said.
We both headed outside and walked to the ramen stand to get some food. She ordered the vegetable soup and ate slowly.
"Cheer up a bit." I said, I couldn't stand it.
"But he's hurt." She said as she poked her food around.
"Come on eat Valentine." I said and she sighed eating her ramen.
"He will wake up, you have to believe that." I said.
"What could have happened to cause him to be unharmed but in a coma?" she asked.
"Asuma told me Itachi used a powerful Genjutsu." I said.
"Is this the reason he was so protective during the chunnin exams?" she asked and I shook my head.
"You remember the man who attacked you during the exams?" I asked and she nodded, "Well he was working for a man named Orochimaru, he's a very dangerous person." He said.
"The man who killed the Hokage?" she asked.
"He was interested in having you work fro him at one point during the exams, he is now focused on other things. But he was worried about you so he always had one of us with you." I said.
"Why didn't he tell me?" she asked,
"Because he didn't want you to be worried." I said.
She held her head letting a few tears fall,
"It's not fair." She said her voice shaky.
"I know, but you have to believe he is going to wake up." I said and she nodded.
"I want to go back to the hospital." She said.
"Why don't you go home?" I suggested.
"Why?" she asked.
"That's a bad environment for you, mentally I mean. I want to make sure you sleep." I said and I had her follow me to the house. She curled up on the couch and fell asleep after a few hours of just laying there. I knew she just wanted to be there with him and alone, but I wanted to make sure I did what was best for her, and that was some rest. There was a knock at the door.
"Come in." I called and Asuma walked in.
"How is she?" he asked.
"She's depressed, how serious is it?" I asked,
"None of the doctors can wake him up, we'll have to rely on Naruto and Jiraya." He said and I nodded. About a week went by and Sasuke ended up in the same state. I Only let her Visit him for a few hours a day, I refused to let her sit there consumed in guilt, and she needed to eat healthy for the baby. She was on the couch again and I decided to do for her what she does for us all the time. All the dogs gathered in the living room where she was and I was sitting ontop of her.
I opened a book and started to read, I actually think it helped, she didn't smiled or anything… but still, she was listening. As I read I could tell I was lulling her to sleep, eventually she fell asleep. I closed the book and we all quietly left the room. We all headed over to Kakashis hospital room, we were helping Valentine so much we didn't get a chance to see him ourselves. We stayed for an hour or so when Naruto and some blonde girl walked inside. I was amazed when she healed him without really even trying. He woke up slowly.
"You were defeated by just two enemies? I thought you were a genius." She said, according to Naruto she was the new Hokage. Gai distracted her to go examine Lee.
"Where's Valentine?" he asked.
