Chapter One

Year: 2009

"Jane...Connor?" Sarah hesitated to say, at this point she had no idea how to approach this situation.

Jane just nodded instinctively.

"But...I've never had a daughter?" Sarah implied.

"No, not in this timeline...but in an alternate timeline you do" Jane said smirking at the thought of there being multiple timelines.

Cameron stood there not sure whether to take Jane's word for what she said or just terminate her on the spot, to her, Jane standing before them felt like it was John but it wasn't.

"How do we know you're not trying to trick us?" Cameron asked.

Jane looked her holding out her arm "You can check my blood, genetics, anything it'll be the same as John's except I'm a female not male"

Both Cameron and Sarah were both reluctant to believe the girl, but she was also confident in her identity.

"So if who you say you are is true...why are you here?" Kyle stepped.

In response Jane sighed in irritation at how stubborn most of these people are, when John told her about them she never thought it'd be like this "John asked me to come...to help you and help him get back"

Cameron's eyes flickered wide at the name John "You know where he is?" she asked intently.

Jane just simply nodded to Cameron's question.

"So...where's my son?" Sarah too asked intently.

Jane once again sighed, they're not going to be happy about this, she thought to herself, "He made me swear not to tell you anything...until the time is right"

Sarah grunted at the answer given, as for Cameron she just stood there with her emotionless terminator mask, after a few moments she vacated the main hanger walking outside through the main entrance, no said anything or tried to stop her not even Sarah they just watched Cameron.

Once Cameron had left through the entrance, Jane spoke up "I believe we have plans to attend to?" she asked.

"Yes certainly" Zash replied he motioned his hand for Jane and the other commanders to follow him back to the temporary briefing room.

Hazel followed after Cameron to see how she was doing, she exited the bunker to see Cameron standing near the edge of a slope motionless, Hazel walked up beside her, Cameron turned to look at her to Hazel's surprise she wasn't crying. Probably done enough of that to dry out the water reserves, she thought to herself.

"I'm sorry about John" she suddenly said.

It took a few moments for Cameron to respond "You have nothing to be sorry about, Skynet is the cause of this" when mentioning Skynet she cursed at the thought its existence.

"What do you intend to do about it?"

Cameron looked to Hazel with determination in her eyes "I'm going to look for John, then finish the fight with him"

She starts walking off when Hazel suddenly speaks up "We need you and your A.I capabilities, without you we have no chance"

Cameron turns around abruptly "And without John there's still no chance"

"We have Jane..."

Cameron suddenly interrupted Hazel "Jane was sent here, by my John...for a reason, I intend to find out why but that doesn't mean I'm not going to look for him" with that said Cameron walks off, leaving a rather irritated Hazel.

After Cayden arrived at the safe-house, she swiftly left the area before any Skynet or Kaliba personnel returned to the area, she immediately headed for the location of where the black SUV that Sarah Connor escaped from ZeiraCorp was last located, on her HUD it displayed a map pinpointing the location out in the desert outside Los Angeles.

Cayden continued driving in the car until she arrived at the location, she pulled outside what looked to be a bunker of some sorts to her, she exited the car then walked up to the man sided door she looked around scanning for threats, nothing. She banged on the door loudly, she waited a few moments until the door opened up two T-999's walked out aiming their plasma auto rifles at her, she instinctively placed her hand on the Glock but didn't pull it out as to not create a confrontation.

"Identify yourself" one of the T-999's ordered.

"Lieutenant General Cayden Connor, daughter of John and Cameron Connor" she replied swiftly.

The two T-999's stood there not saying a word, only analyzing the information they were given by the girl in front of them.

"We have no record of you" one of them reply.

Cameron warned me that they wouldn't recognize me.

"I need to speak with John and Cameron Connor" she persists.

One of the T-999's turns to the other "Inform General Cameron"

The other T-999 dashed back inside to inform Cameron of the situation, as for the T-999 standing in front of Cayden it kept its plasma auto rifle aimed at Cayden, she knew it wouldn't do anything to her but she didn't bother to mention it to the T-999.

Not so long after Cameron comes walking out along with the other T-999 and some other assailants.

With Cameron were Hazel, Hazer, Kyle and Savannah they eye up the rather young looking girl before them, especially Cameron. As Cameron walks closer to the girl she realizes that she has her eyes.

"Who are you?" Cameron asks the girl.

"I'm Cayden Connor your daughter" she replies, the others standing around Cameron look between her and Cayden in confusion.

"I'm unable to reproduce, I'm a machine...you must have mistaken me for someone else"

"I'm a machine too just like you" Cayden responses simply.

Instinctively the two T-999's aim their guns at Cayden preparing to fire, as for Cayden she readies herself for a fight until Cameron ordered the two T-999's to lower their weapons.

"Do you have any proof?" Cameron asks.

"Your future self told me, if you didn't believe to let you access my chip to see the events for yourself" Cayden responded.

At first it seemed like Cameron was struggling to come to a decision, but in matter of fact she was trying to scan Cayden to determine her model and series, on her HUD it displayed the following text.

Target Series and Model unidentified

Cameron was reluctant in taking Cayden's word for everything she has said at that very moment she wanted to terminate Cayden in case it was a trap set by Skynet, then she thought about what if this girl her was in fact her and John's daughter could she live with herself finding out she just terminated her daughter.

Cameron took a few more moments to decide, the others around her waiting patiently for her decision, finally Cameron speaks up, "Okay some me the files on your chip"

In response Cayden smiled with genuine happiness as Cameron walked back into the bunker Cayden followed, they both walk towards the engineering sector of the bunker, at this point Cameron was worried to see her and John's future selves in case they weren't the saviors of the planet as they were thought to be.

Year: Unknown (Timeline Unknown)

It had been about thirty minutes until Elizabeth returned with some thick Resistance clothing, she handed a pair of clothes to John whom immediately flung them on himself, not that he was cold but he felt uncomfortable about trying to keep Allison warm while they were both stark naked.

Elizabeth then dressed Allison swiftly, to John he was rather grateful that Elizabeth did it the last thing he wanted to do at the moment was dress a naked girl that closely resembled his Cameron. Finally Elizabeth dressed herself up once she finished she placed a blanket over Allison to give her some extra warmth while she rested.

John aimlessly walked around the tunnel trying to get feel for where they could be...or even when. Only one thing was clear to him that he still in some future war between humans and the machines. He turned to see Elizabeth placing her fingers on Allison's forehead, must be checking her biological vitals, he thought to himself.

"How is she?" he suddenly asked.

"She'll be fine for the time being, but I suggest we go to the Resistance bunker I just came from" she replied.

"You think that's wise...seeing you're a machine, I'm half machine and they don't know us?" he asked rather skeptical of the plan.

Elizabeth just gave him a emotionless look "It's the best chance we have at getting help and finding out what's going on...but first we need to let Allison rest a little long before we can move her" she replied.

John once again looked around aimlessly, trying to find some logical reason as to why they're still in a future war.

He looks to Elizabeth rubbing the back of his head in a irritable fashion "You know when or where we are?"

Elizabeth simply shakes her head "We could be anywhere, hence the reason we need to find out form the Resistance what's going on"

John just nods at Elizabeth's statement, she then walks to the opening they ran into to get to cover from a HK Drone, looking out scanning the surrounding area. As for John he slouches down the wall next to Allison trying to get to grip with the fact that once again he's lost Cameron or vice versa he had no idea, to calm his nerves he decides to drift off into a deep sleep.
