Kerrigan awoke with a start as a marine with cleaning duty came into her room.
"What day is it?" she asked.
"Tuesday the fifteenth," he answered. She had been asleep for almost two days. As he started to vacuum, she went into another room and got a robe on. Then she walked to the large shower rooms and entered the female one. Inside there were several medics and pilots, all taking showers or brushing their teeth and talking. They all looked up when she walked in, and then crowded around her asking if she was OK and "How are you feeling?" She told them that she was feeling fine and then she took off her robe and started to shower. She gasped as the water hit her and her skin had a small shock. After a couple of seconds, she became used to the water and closed her eyes in ecstasy. She then opened her eyes and asked the woman next to her to fill her in on what had happened over the last few days.
"Well," said the woman, "Mengsk went on a campaign to get more troops to join the Sons of Korhal and returned with about four hundred more troops, which more than makes up for the loss on the failed mission." Kerrigan thanked the woman, put on her robe, and finished her shower. She now felt much cleaner and more awake, so she said "Goodbye," to the women in the showers and walked back to her room.
The marine had left and her room looked very clean by the time she returned. She locked the door, put on a clean uniform, and then dialed Mengsks's office on her holo-phone.
"Hello, Commander Arcturus Mengsk's office, I am his secretary, how can I help you?" the woman asked.
"I'd like to speak to Mengsk," said Kerrigan.
"One moment, please," said the secretary.
"Hello?" said Mengsk, "Oh Sarah, how are you recovering?"
"I'm fine, listen, why do you think the Protoss are here?" she asked.
His voice sounded grim "I have no idea," he said, "but I'm not taking any chances-I've already raised the base warning level to yellow alert and we have our defenses at their max."
"Good," said Kerrigan, "I suggest that you keep it that way. Oh, one more thing, please call me if anything happens."
"Sure, I'll do that," he said. Kerrigan hung up. Then she realized that she hadn't eaten in two days, so she walked to the cafeteria, and ate a bit. After that, she went to the firing range and shot at zergling dummies. She fired until she was satisfied that her skills were honed enough and then went to her locker room, where she checked and cleaned all of her equipment. When she was done, she walked back to her room and turned on the TV. There were several action movies, documentaries, and horror flicks on, so she decided to watch THE FALL OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, a Ken Burns III documentary. Which she watched until she got bored and changed the channel to a movie, NOT MORE ALIENS?, the twenty- seventh alien movie. This she watched until the end, laughing at how bad the special effects were, as it was several years old. Then it was late, so she went to sleep, even though she wasn't tired. The next day, she was awakened by a loud crash...
