"Gosh! If it wasn't cold outside it's cold now!" one of the recruits moaned as they shivered in their blankets.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuefsXFPCn
"I'll s...say!" Polo replied. "Do...doesn't this place h...have a...heat...heating system?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8Q2edTyZv
"Felix says no because Felix's friends are in the military." Felix said shaking underneath his blankets.
Mark sneezed. "You know, I heard the seniors say something about winter being the Serge's favorite time of year. Now I see why."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjelYENOQsJ
"Y...you th...think!" one said.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOd7WiEsY0
"Felix is surprised Alice isn't shivering."
"Yeah! I am shocked as well!" Polo said.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuO9SG0eCsT
True to the recruits word Alice was spawled out on her bed snoozing like a baby. Most of the recruits were shocked while some started wondering how she was able to sleep like this under in the cold weather. 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquZZrTJm1C
"He...hey! I also noticed sh...she wasn't shivering when the Serge leaves us out in the cold!" One pointed out.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrky0403Q2
"Yeah!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTEWszd4ZB
"How did she do that?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoFcA5iDUo
"I...I don't know!" Mark replied.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtBKq05DWw
One kicked out his blankets in frustration. "Bullsh!t! I say we wake her up and ask!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKcP7DwRvu
"No thanks! I am not ready to move an inch out of this bed." one said.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnaaQLsUDf
"Yep!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa7NIcaVtw
"Same here,"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eyOz1DkjC
"Ditto,"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLMLSvEHoY
Unfortunately for them, the Serge who had been standing near the window listening to their complaints and decided to warm them up by calling them out and instructing them to jog underneath the freezing night. All but Alice muttered curses underneath their breath and the day got worse later in the cold morning when they were instructed to shovel snow off the driveway of the Colonel's house.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcu21tojTM
Cold and exhausted, they stumbled back to their sleeping quarters ready to tuck in for the night except Alice was nowhere to be found.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklpL6qFm52
"Gah! Where is she?" Mark asked.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPFt1XhPNU
"How should I know? I am not Alice's keeper!" Polo moaned as he climbed onto the bed.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa4SiO6kKz
"Felix suggest we should look for her before the Serge flips his lid again," 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsymWPlOoQr
Unfortunately, this annoyed one of the recrutits. "Then you look for her!" he yelled.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0MiyQqpdF
Shrugging, Felix walked out of the sleeping quarters to look for Alice and found her struggling to lift three old buckets full of coal.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEAuObC0Tz
"Oh! Thank goodness you are here," as she dropped them, the buckets sizzled underneath the snow. "Quickly take them back to the sleeping quarters! I will carry the rest!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHFOlT6t2I
Thus, handing Felix the stick she used to carry the buckets she rushed away leaving him confused. Shrugging, Felix did as he was told and the rest of the recruits were shocked to see him.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwKfJlzNrf
"What the..."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI58QfgImS1
"Did Alice tell you to carry that?" Mark asked.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj0sFxbaHk
Felix nodded. Suddenly the door burst open and Alice walked in holding two buckets.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHqa1Jg4vO
"Phew! The Senior officer on duty nearly caught me!" she dropped the buckets full of hot coals with a huge thud. "Anyone got a screwdriver?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kVHdkuovA
"Why? You need got some screws loose?" asked one recruit.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddVpRekUMS
Alice laughed. "Wow! That's so funny but no. I want to make holes in them."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bDsMHgFVI
"What?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAxk7O98S2
None the less, someone handed Alice a screwdriver which she used puncture the buckets. Using an old newspaper, she fanned the coals until they were red hot and place the buckets by the corners of the room.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMijdi1Sz75
"There! I hope everyone will be warm now," 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2waZqsRx8
The rest of the recruits watched as she climbed onto her bed, wished everyone a good night, yawned and went to sleep.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHma39e7nWJ
"This chick is nuts!" one said.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz2L38v1b4
"I'll say," Polo replied.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6UWBMWpt3
But that night, they all slept like babies for no one complained about the room being too cold for comfort.
