Instructor Soresguard entered the break room, depleted from the day he'd had.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and this was his first break of the day, as he'd been stuck in his office going over lesson plans, making sure to read over everything he'd covered with the Second Division cadets today so he could start planning for the next lesson.

It was only when he'd reached for the machine, poured himself a cup of delicious brown juice without the added sugar and cream and turned around that he noticed him.
