"cadet Kerenai what does it take for you to truly be unable to right out a report?"
"have me up for three days and I'll fall asleep on you, the closer I get to the three day limit the worse it gets"
"you're kidding right?"
"afraid not"
"OK you pass the sleep deprivation test on account that you're still up and functioning, unlike the other students who are about ready to fall asleep on us at any moment"
(snorts) "about ready? I caught about five of them in one of the classrooms trying to get a five minute nap in, they might've gotten at least one minute before I discovered them and rudely turned on the lights so they would wake up and do the next task"
"when was this?"
"about midnight or so, I did rounds around the campus every so often supplementing your rounds whenever possible"
"how often did you have coffee duty?"
"twice as often as a few others, but then again I had to keep three cadets away so that they wouldn't drink the whole pot for themselves"
"they were that tired?"
"no that addicted to caffeine"
"so you pulled a lot of coffee shifts didn't you?"
"exactly"
she drank the water provided to her and quickly realized something
(starting to slur her words) "alright who laced the water with a sedative?"
"sorry cadet, but in this world you're at risk of being drugged so we had to do this unscheduled test"
what no one knew was that the only reason she reacted that way to such a light sedative was because her body hadn't been given any in a long time, however once it recognized what was going on her body instantly started to counteract the drug and she was able to stay awake and actually regain some function within her body
(still slightly out of it) "no fair instructors, we weren't supposed to learn about sedatives for another few days since you pulled the sleep deprivation on us so fast"
"how are you still up, we kept it mild but still..."
"remember what I told you earlier about how I'm still up and the fact that it takes three days for me suddenly fall asleep with sleep deprivation?"
"you said it was classified so that means that you able to fight the mild sedative is also..."
"exactly"
"OK you probably can't tell me specifics but just how many drugs are you resistant too?"
"classified"
"why is so much about you classified cadet?"
"because not only would you not understand, but it's also for your own safety"
"fine"
well a few days later the instructors worked on teaching the students about sedative and how to detect them in their drinks, none of the students knowing that Marissa was already resistant to the sedatives and her body had already readjusted to be able to detect even the slightest hint of a sedative or any other drug in the drink, so Marissa was the only one not affected by the sedative which made the instructors annoyed but knew they could do nothing about it, the rest of the students were quickly asleep
"looks like only one student is resistant to the drugs"
the group away turns and sees the chief instructor, who led classes on the final stages before becoming an officer and also trained K-9 handlers
"yes I am indeed resistant to the sedatives, however that reason is classified and given enough I will be affected"
"I know who you are Kerenai, one of my best officers warned me about you, not to mention I've been keeping an eye on the classes and you are an amazing student"
"so far she hasn't failed a single test, and we believe that she only had a little trouble with the sleep deprivation one, she flat out told us that it would take three days to knock her out"
"so, you're the one that rigged the coffee maker a few days ago to beep whenever the coffee was ready"
"guilty as charged sir, everyone but me needed a lot of coffee and for three of these cadets, they have a serious caffeine addiction"
"would've taken the whole pot if given the chance?"
"yes sir they would've"
suddenly an officer ran to the group and saluted the main instructor
"captain somethings happened in the bomb detection area, fire is spreading and there's immanent risk of explosion"
Marissa speaks out of turn but it was quite necessary all things considered
