"who are you?"
"I'm your doctor, you've been under my care for the past three days now"
"oh man I am in so much trouble right now"
"what for?"
"because I haven't reported in to my commanding officer in at least three days, and that's not counting the calculated time we expected for the mission and possible trouble"
suddenly the mysterious person comes in and speaks up
"I'm afraid you won't be able to report in to your commanding officer, and you'll need to go back to the police academy to relearn everything you thought you knew"
"what are you talking about?"
"Ms. Kerenai, I'm talking about the fact that you've been in a combination of a coma and cryo suspension for the past hundred years"
"a hundred years, it's been a hundred years since I was last seen?"
"yes and the military actually told your real job you were dead because they didn't know how they could keep you alive and possibly revive you with your injuries"
"I see and just exactly how do you know all this, and who are you anyways?"
"I'm surprised you don't recognize me...Lt."
and with that the cloak comes off and the mysterious person is revealed to be Sara
"Sara, but how?"
(sighs) "an accident shortly after we thought you killed in the line of duty"
a hundred years ago
"man it's hard to believe she's gone"
"we know, and you've been partnered with her the longest haven't you Sara?"
"yes I have"
suddenly the captain comes running out of his office very frantic
"Sara, John there's been an accident at the chemical plant, I need you to go there and get the situation under control"
"but captain..."
"I know, Marissa was always the best prepared for such emergencies but with her de...her gone for three months now I need someone else to do it and as you were partnered with her Sara, I feel you're the best person for the job"
"and John?"
"he needs a partner as he's new here and I feel that you're the best person to train him"
they both salute and say at the same time
"yes sir"
and so they leave and by the time they arrive the fire department is already on the scene, so they mainly do crown control when suddenly the firefighters tell everyone to get back because it was about to blow, and blow it did but Sara got caught in the blast protecting John. Three weeks later
"oh man, I feel like I died and fought my way back to life a dozen times over"
"not quite Lt. but it was pretty close at times"
"let me guess you've been taking care of me while I've been out of it"
"yes I have been, but there's something you need to know"
"what is it?"
"due to the explosion we had to use an experimental treatment for the injuries you've received and well we just found something out"
"what is it?"
"due to the chemicals in the explosion and the treatment you now are unable to physically get any older"
"meaning what?"
"basically you can't physically age anymore"
"so basically while I actually do become older I'll always look 25 years old"
"exactly"
"is it at least on medical record so that I won't get asked too many questions?"
"yes, and there's more"
"oh?"
"yep you can only die in the line of duty or when you feel like you've lived a long life there is a process being developed to reverse this"
"wait but I thought you said I will always look 25 years old not that I'll always be 25"
"well maybe die in the line of duty isn't quite correct, your body will eventually shut down it will just take much longer than normal now"
"I think I understand but it's still a lot to process right now"
"give it some time, but remember you're still a normal human, just faster cell regeneration so no unnecessary risks in the line of duty, got it?"
"clear"
and so over the years she sees people come and go and after sixty-five years she finds out the truth about Marissa and starts the process to set things right again
