Valen awoke in the hospital of Kirigakure, attached to an IV line and a nurse hovering nearby. Furrowing his brow in annoyance the Jounin Commander would pull the line out of him. Much to the chagrin of the nurse in question who simply called the doctor and orderlies in. Valen of course was not impressed and he stood, in a hospital gown of all things, an his eyebrow twitching in annoyance. The Gelel Stone was still firmly implanted within his chest and he felt fine. Hell, the hole where the IV had been was already closed and he turned to the doctor and spoke, calmly, and quietly. “Give me back my things, now.” He would say, his tone brooking no compromise. The doctor would nod toward a cabinet next to the bed and Valen would turn toward and open it.
Within it was his clothes, and his sword, and Valen reached in for them as he pulled the hospital gown off with one hand, exposing himself, but not caring. He dressed, in the shocked silence that followed and set his sword across his back where it belonged before turning and speaking again. “What happened?” He would ask, prompting the doctor to reach for a clipboard on a nearby desk and begin reading it. “You were brought in with damage to your body and chakra system. As if both had been strained dangerously. However you were obviously recovering with great alacrity. So we set you up with fluids and left you to recover. You were brought in by one ‘Raika Ryuutei’ and from all reports it seemed the Nibi had come and attacked the village.” He would explain, prompting Valen’s brow to furrow. That tracked, given he no longer felt the beasts power within him. He frowned at that before shaking his head to get it back on track.
“Lady Arisu entrapped the beast, sealing it away within a large statue. But not before one ‘Raphael Uzumaki’ was killed by it.” The doctor would go on to say, again prompting Valen to frown before nodding his head in understanding. So, Raika had recovered him from the scene and brought him here to recover. Raphael had died, had Hiramekarei been destroyed in the process? Probably not, he would simply have to find it. Given he would need to reward Raika for her service anyway he would probably start with her. Asking if she knew where it was. For now though he needed to get to his office and call her to report. Moving and leaving the hospital quietly he would move to his office. Outside of the main door his secretary, tear tracks running down her face, would see him and greet him enthusiastically. Valen would frown and nod in greeting before moving into the office, telling her to send a call to the Ryuutei woman to report in to the Jounin Commanders office immediately.
Then Valen would begin working through the paperwork that had built up, moving through it with a swiftness that came from long practice at doing it. Hai no Ha, his weapon would be leaning on the desk to his right, easily graspable in case some lunatic attacked him in his office. One of the items on his desk was the paperwork necessary to promote someone and he filled out the relevant information before continuing on with other things while waiting for Raika to appear.
