Minion's/Tuck's POV

I sighed as I looked down at MegaMind, he was getting paler with the passage of days. Had it really been half a year since this all happened? Since he went into his coma? turning away I decided I should get some paperwork done, after all if I didn't do it now when would I? I don't know how much longer I should try to keep him alive, after all would he want me to if he never recovered?

Then I run the risk of killing him when he would have woken up, so I was stuck in between a rock and a hard place... One day I would have to move on and I couldn't because I was the only one who knew he was alive. Some one banged on my door and I jumped, who? I went to the door and looked out the peephole, Jacob! How had he found out where I lived?

I opened the door and frowned at him, he looked nervous. Great, now what? "Well come in." He walked in and went to the kitchen to sit at the table. "I think there's a way to help Minion out...but I would have to either talk to him or through you to find out exactly what happened to MegaMind."

Help me out? How, it was a coma not like they could take people out of it unless they put them in it in the first place. "Run it by me and I'll see if Minion wants to talk to you or not." Jacob nodded; "There's an experimental drug that might be able to pull someone out of a coma if it looks like they will never wake up, and Megamind's been out for at least six months." A drug? but it could kill him...

"Minion will say no to you, there's too much risk on an experimental drug when MegaMind could wake up at any time." Jacob nodded, but how could I keep living this way? Waiting for my brother to wake from his sleep for the rest of my life? "You should ask him at least, maybe he won't say no." But, I would.

He just didn't know it was...Me, oh! Well, it wouldn't hurt. Jacob was trust worthy and he had seemed sympathetic to my plight. "I'm going to tell you something that you have to promise never to tell another soul especially Metroman." Jacob nodded; "I promise on my life."

I nodded and took a deep breath, I really hoped he didn't freak out too badly. I didn't want to lose him as a friend, but I knew that this would happen one day, that I would have to tell the truth to someone. I slipped my fingers into the latch on my watch and yanked upward to unlock it and then twisted the watch. I witnessed the look of dawning horror on Jacobs face and prepared myself for his screams of anger and hatred. "Oh my god, I can't believe it! Minion! I've been friends with you this long and you didn't tell me sooner? I mean we could have talked about all the cool stuff you've done!"

I blinked, he was okay with me being well me? "You're not angry?" He shrugged; "I am a little bit, but I mean you were keeping from me who you are, for your own safety and all but still. I wouldn't have told on you but you didn't know...oh wait oh my god-your Minion-you work for the mayor, oh lord..." I burst into laughter, seriously sometimes I wondered about Jacobs sanity. But at least he was alright with it being me.

"Wait, does that mean that...he's here?" I frowned; "Yes." He nodded; "Would you mind? I am a trained medic after all." That was true, he had been a doctor before he became the I.T. guy. He found he really couldn't deal with the stress and changed careers. "Alright, but no touching." He nodded and I led him to MegaMind's room. It hurt to see him this way, pale and unmoving, it was unnatural for he was always moving.

"Have you been moving him at all? Becuase he could get bed sores if he isn't moved." I nodded, I had looked up everything I could on how to care for someone who was in a coma. "Good, had he seemed like he's been dreaming any time you were in here with him? Like eye movement or anything?" I couldn't think of any time he had. "No, but then again...I don't like being here with him like this."

Jacob nodded and peered down at MegaMind. "I still can't believe he's alive, I mean I knew everyone would have liked to think he was dead...I think it would have been sad if he really was." Which I could agree with, Mega was so smart and he could do the world a lot of good, but right now...right now he needed to wake up...come back to the world of the living.

"What happened to cause him to be in this state?" I sighed and motioned for Jacob to follow me. We went to the kitchen, somewhere I always felt safe. "Coffee?" Jacob nodded and I poured him a cup and myself. "He was hit by falling concrete...It covered him and I pulled him out, at that point he was out, but breathing. So, I figured he was alright..."

If I had only known what really was going on I would have trashed our plan and taken him to a doctor... Had Metroman take him to a doctor. But that didn't happen and it took me so long to realize just what was going on. "It's not your fault Minion." I sat down and shook my head. "It was, I should have accounted for the time it took for the explosives rather than trust his count. I could have gotten us out of there faster."

Jacob took in a long breath before breathing out. He needed to calm himself sometimes and that helped him, but why did he need to now? "It wasn't your fault Minion, stop blaming yourself...It might help you, your state of mind." I couldn't fathom what he meant but It was nice to have someone try to comfort me...to know what I was really going through at this time.

"Wait, your friends with Ritchi, does she know who you are?" I smiled; "I think that would freak her out more then kidnapping ever did." Jacob laughed; "Yeah that's true, I bet it would." I think eventually I might have to tell her, with the way things were between us, I don't quite think I was completely in the friend zone...and I did like her a lot. But for now, it was enough to have people like her and Jacob in my life.
