Matsuda didn't really know how to respond, so he kept asking questions to make up for it. "Did anything happen before this went down to tip y'all off, or was it just random...? Maybe something happened before and that was how Hotaru recognized the guy?" he shrugged. "Sorry if you'd rather not think about all this right now..." He'd normally ask Jack these questions, but considering the other Ookami was sleeping that wasn't really an option.

Tekka shook her head. "I don't remember... Hana came up to me at the base and that's what made me and Jack start guarding Ruru, I think... I really just... I don't know..." She groaned, resting her head in her hands. God, she was so tired and she hurt all over and- was Jack sitting up?
Jack had woken up when Matsuda and his sister had started to yell, as hard as it COULD be to wake him up sometimes, he was having a bad dream... OR at least he THOUGHT it had just been a dream until he woke up to pain and hospital lights. He was only able to sit up now that he remembered anything (and Matsuda wasn't likely to kill him). The younger Ookami in the room moved to get out of his bed, stopped only by the stiffness of his limbs thanks to stitches and sedatives.

Matsuda turned to Jack for the third time, frowning. "Hey...." he muttered, not knowing what would be the best way to greet him considering the current cirumstances. "You need to stay in bed, you'll heal faster that way..." And they'll be able to rescue Hotaru faster too, butthat part could go without being said. He couldn't imagine how Jack must have felt about the whole thing, he watched them take her after all...

Jack shook his head. "Gotta find Ruru..." He mumbled, still half asleep. The sheets were putting up a good fight against his sleepy body, managing to keep the Ookami semi-trapped within the bed.

Matsuda quickly got to his feet and over to Jack's bed. "Jack, stay in bed!" he urged, trying to keep his clanmate from getting out of bed. "We're gonna get her back, don't worry." he tried his best not to raise his voice at Jack, the brunette was really starting to worry him. "Trust me. Just stay in bed."

Tekka frowned and joined in with the pleading. "I promise we will Jack, but you gotta heal first. You and me both, and THEN we're gonna kick some ass." Maybe that would help?
Jack looked blearily up at Matsuda, then over to his sister and back again. "...hate hospitals..." He mumbled, though he stopped his attempts to escape from the confines of the bed.

Matsuda sighed in relief, looking over Jack's injuries. "I know." he frowned. "But the sooner you get better the sooner you'll get out of here." The eldest of the three knelt down so that he was at eye level with Jack. "Stay with me here, okay?" he tried, making his voice as soft as he could manage. "Tell me everything you remember, everything to the smallest detail. Everything's gonna be okay Jack, I just need you to think for a few moments." He needed Jack to wake up, he wasn't himself right then and it was seriously worrying Matsu. He couldn't have his potential brother-in-law like this, it hurt the blond too much.

Jack blinked at Matsuda, and then blinked a few more times. Slowly but steadily coming out of his stupor. "Right... right, yeah..." He said, rubbing at his face as he finally awoke. "...A few weeks ago, maybe, both Tekka and Ruru had run-ins with creepers. Tekka ran into Hana at the base and Ruru... there was some sicko she ran into... We thought something was up so Tekka and I started sticking with Ruru as much as we could to make sure no one ambushed her." And it HAD worked, no ambush out of the blue. Just a trap the three walked (ran, really) right into.
"But then Ruru found a lock of hair at the door, purple hair. She just sort of ran out and we went after her... And we ran into an albino, a kuma, and I guess the girl was Hana..." He trailed off. "What else did Tekka tell you?"

Matsuda listened patiently as the other Ookami spoke. "She told me about the fight, and Hotaru..." he trailed off, but quickly picked back up, managing to smile just a little bit. "But everything's gonna be fine, I promise." he didn't know if repeating that was actually going to help or not but it was all he could think of at this point. "...How're you feeling right now...?" he asked carefully. He knew they hated doctors, so he'd make sure not to suggest bringing one in there unless he thought it was necessary. He wanted to keep them as calm as possible for the moment, it was the only way he was going to stay calm himself.

Jack rubbed his temples. "Sleepy, worried... Stuff like that. Though I guess considering what time it is and what all happened, that's normal." Tekka shrugged.
"I'm about the same... Kinda hungry too..." She wasn't sure how it was possible to be so worried and hungry at the same time. Didn't nerves cause upset stomachs or something?

The blond Ookami nodded. "Right." he said. "I could go get y'all something if you want, it wouldn't take me long at all." he suggested to them. "Just let me know what you two want and I'll go see what they got." The hospital had decent food, plus he was starting to feel a little hungry himself.

Jack and Tekka spoke in unison, saying "Honeybuns." before snickering just a little. Jack was the first to recover. "They're the only things that actually taste right at hospitals..." And he had (unfortunately) been in hospitals just enough to have learned that.

Matsuda nodded, grinning just a little. "I gotcha." he said before walking out. It didn't take him long at all, in less than ten minutes he had come back with four Honeybuns and some water for them to wash it down with. "Two for each of you," he said, handing them to each of them. "And a little something to drink on the side." he didn't have enough arms to carry something for himself, but that was perfectly fine. He wanted to make sure Jack and Tekka were both taken care of before he even considered doing anything for himself, it was his big brother side showing through once again. He looked back and forth between them. "Need anything else?" he asked, ready to jump up and help them with whatever they might of needed help with.

Tekka grinned despite the current circumstances. "I could use a footrub, and a million dollars... and a butler, a mansion, and a wedding planner for my doofus brother there." She giggled out while Jack looked for something to throw at his younger sister.

Matsuda was actually ready to snicker just a little bit until Tekka's wedding planner comment. "Wedding..." he mumbled to himself as he flopped back in the chair. He frowned, negativity starting to sink in his stomach. She'd probably never get married, and have kids and... and...
He sighed, shaking his head, he really needed to stop that. They were getting her back, he had to keep telling himself that. The blond looked over at Jack. "Were you ever...?" he asked, keeping his voice at a softer tone again. Jack would have proposed at some point right? He just needed to know for some reason. In all seriousness Jack would probably be the only guy Matsuda would ever approve of for his sister.
