Shikamaru sighed and stopped playing Shogi alone. He looked at Naruko, who was sleeping in a hospital bed next to him. "You sure sleep a lot, Naru..." He sighed again. "What training did the old man let you do for you to be that powered out? ...If I think about it, I don't even wanna know, it's too troublesome." He continued to play Shogi.

Suddenly, Shikamaru noticed something weird. "Huh? What's this?" He looked at the hourglass, which wasn't working anymore all of the sudden. "Damn, it's stuck.... Mendokuse."

Naruko slowly opened her eyes. "Huh...? Where am I?" She asked sleepily, sat up and rubbed her eyes.

"Finally awake, Naru?" Shikamaru looked at her and smirked.

"Wha? Shika?!" Naruko looked at him in surprise.

"I came to visit you. You're in the hospital and they told me you slept for three days straight."

"...T-Three... days..." Naruko's eyes widened in shock as she realized it. "Oh no! That's bad!" She jumped up and shook Shikamaru violently in panic. "Shika! When are the final matches?!"

"Wha? Stop shaking me, Naru." Shikamaru wailed out of her grip and then looked at her with a confused expression. "The tournament is tomorrow."

"Nooo...." She sank to the ground and depressed lines appeared over her head. "I will kill Ero-Sennin when I find him... That's all his fault!" Naruko whined and then sighed depressed.

Shikamaru sweat dropped at that. "There's no need to panic a day before the matches. Resting is a part of your training too, you know that."

"I know..." Naruko whined and then she looked at him with puppy-dog eyes. "Shika~ I'm hungry~ Feed me~"

"Troublesome..." Shikamaru sighed and placed a fruit basket on her bed. "I originally bought these fruits for Choji. The doctor said he can't eat them, so let's eat them together."

"Choji?" Naruko blinked and sat down on the bed. "Is he okay? I hope he isn't hurt too badly..."

Shikamaru smirked. "Don't get worried. He just ate too much barbeque... and his stomach isn't feeling well."

Naruko giggled amused. "I see. That sounds more like him."

"Here, eat before you start to murder me because I don't give you food." Shikamaru said amused and threw an apple towards Naruko.

Naruko caught it. "Thanks, Shika-" Suddenly, her eyes widened.

"N-Naru...?" Shikamaru looked at her in concern, but then began to sweat as a foxy grin appeared on her face.

"Let's eat the food in front of Choji~" She giggled evilly.

Shikamaru sighed. "Troublesome woman..." 'Still the little devil I know...'
