Chapter 1307

Remember – It Was ME

Cammy's team received the instructions from Young Allison to use one of the dead men in the back of the SUV as a 'test subject'.

"That's different." Savannah said.

Savannah thought that was a good idea. They were already dead. What could it hurt?

Cam went and opened the back of the SUV and opened the lift gate. She lifted one of the dead men out and carried him up to the spot in the wall and laid him on the floor.

Cammy and Savannah stayed off to the sides in case anyone shot through from inside wherever this thing went.

Savannah wanted to try something.

"Here take my body cam and see what it shows on the other side." Savannah said.

Cammy liked that idea but she wanted to wait until after the first test.

"Let's try this stiff's arm or leg first and see what happens." Cammy said. "He has a watch on. Let's see what happens to that."

Cam was ready to push the dead man's arm through.

"Here goes nothing." Cam said.

She shoved his arm against the 'wall'. It disappeared into the unseen gateway. It appeared his arm was gone or inside the wall.

Cam moved to drag his whole body back.

Savannah wanted to wait for a little bit.

"Wait a minute to see if the extra time exposure does anything to his arm." Savannah said.

Cammy did not care for whatever this was.

"I think we should have John Henry cut the power." Cammy said.

Savannah thought about it.

"Maybe we will once we see what's on the other side." Savannah said.

Cam drug the man back in. The long sleeve shirt on his arm seemed undamaged as did the skin on his hand and arm. His watch was still running and the time was correct. There did not appear to be any temporal factor involved.

Cammy scanned for any contaminants that might have adhered to his clothes or skin. None were detected.

Savannah went to hand Cam her body cam.

"I will use mine." Cam said. "I have an idea."

Cam looked on the work bench and found some wire. She repositioned the man so she could shove his foot through. She affixed the body cam with the wire to the bottom of his shoe so it would remain upright when she shoved his foot through. She tried to stay away from as much of the unseen opening as possible herself.

They did not know if it was like one way glass or not. Maybe someone could look out but they could not look in. Nobody wanted to get grabbed and pulled in.

Cammy and Savannah looked at their phones. John Henry transmitted Cam's body cam footage to all of them.

Cam looked at Cammy and Savannah.

"Do it." Savannah said.

"Here goes nothing." Cam said again.

Cam slid the dead man's foot into the unknown. Her body cam should show something.

Young Allison and Anna watched the body cam footage from Cammy's team inside the building. Once they started to 'probe' the unknown they might spark a reaction. It would most likely be a negative reaction. One thing was for sure. That was definitely future technology of some sort.

"Make sure they stay off to the side as much as possible." Young Allison said.

Anna passed along the warning.

They watched the 'arm test' with the dead man.

"I am glad the shirt and watch are still there." Anna said.

Young Allison was glad something else was still there.

"I'm glad his flesh is still there and that the arm came back at all." Young Allison said.

They watched as Cam attached her body cam to the dead man's foot.

"Here comes the unknown." Anna said.

Young Allison wanted a precaution.

"Is John Henry ready to cut the power?" Young Allison asked.

Anna double checked.

"Everything is like you requested it." Anna said.

They could see from Cammy's body cam what Cam was about to do.

"Here goes nothing." Cam said.

They watched as Cam slid the dead man's foot with the body cam into the unknown. They really wondered what was on the 'other side'.

Jan was pleased now that Gail and Holly took as many shots as her to play miniature golf. It did make the game a little more fun to play for her.

"See how much fun this is now." Jan said. "Now you have to try harder."

Gail liked the challenge.

"I like it." Gail said. "I want to have fun."

It didn't seem fun to Hanna. She did not like that it took longer than before for her. It seemed to make Jan happy so it was tolerable.

"As long as you are having a good time, I think that is all that matters." Hanna said.

Jan looked over at Summer.

"She is still winning." Jan said.

Summer did not want it to be an issue. It was just a game.

"We are not keeping score." Summer said.

Jan was a little jealous. Summer was perfect.

"Every shot you take is a 'hole in one'." Jan said.

Summer shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm just using my natural ability." Summer said. "I can still play blindfolded if you want me to."

Jan watched Summer do that already.

"You did that for three holes and they were still a 'hole in one'." Jan said. "Are you sure you didn't cheat?"

Summer was a little offended.

"I don't need to cheat at anything." Summer said.

Hanna watched Summer grow up and she excelled at everything. She thought Summer was the most gifted human she'd ever met. She would be able to surpass Savannah and Young Allison at everything if she hadn't done so already.

"Summer is playing fair. I covered her eyes for those three holes myself." Hanna said. "She's just good at everything."

Summer wanted to play and have fun but she did not want Jan to be upset.

"I can sit and watch as you three play the game." Summer said. "I don't need to be a part of it."

Jan looked at Summer and felt bad now.

"I'm sorry." Jan said. "I don't know what I was thinking. I know you are good at everything. I want you to play."

Hanna did not want this to turn ugly.

"We are almost done here." Hanna said. "We can go do some other things."

Jan was ready for a change. It was cold up where they were. She wanted to reaffirm her closeness to Summer.

"We can take a bubble bath to warm up and watch a movie again." Jan said.

Summer thought that sounded good.

"We can do that." Summer said. "There are only two holes left."

They heard the stairway creak behind them.

Bob was back.

"Hi, Bob." Summer said.

"Hello. As soon as you are done I will return the sports equipment." Bob said.

The girls finished up and gave everything to Bob. They thanked him for his assistance. They headed back to their suite.

Mary led Sheila by the arm back to her cabin. She was very upset that Laura looked like she was hitting on an 'old flame'. That was bad enough. It was how Hot the 'old flame' was that was the bad part. She was Hotter then Laura or her.

Sheila could tell Mary was upset.

"I need you to relax, love." Sheila said. "This should be a fun time."

Mary looked back and Laura was walking with the new Bitch – whatever her name was. It was 'Sasha' or something like that.

"She always does this." Mary said. "I hate it more when they are guys. I won't touch that thing for a week when she is with a guy."

Sheila wanted to find out more.

"Do you ever hang out with guys?" Sheila asked.

Mary looked disgusted.

"I used to try that but not any more." Mary said. "Laura still does. It is not very often. I don't think she has anytime recently."

Sheila wanted more information. Mary seemed like providing it right now. She would prompt her a little. She wanted to know more about the medical history of the two girls.

"I think guys are only good to catch something from." Sheila said.

Mary nodded her head.

"Tell me about it." Mary said. "They can't even get you off. It feels more like you are being attacked. You end up sore with a mess to clean up and a trip to the doctor to see what they just gave you. Been there, done that."

They arrived at the cabin.

Mary opened the door and went inside. Sheila held it open for Laura and Ally. She looked at Leticia.

"Unless you are ready to get a few piercings, I think you should move along." Sheila said.

Leticia looked at Sheila and could see she was 'trouble'.

"I already have one." Leticia said. "I told Laura I would show it to her - again."

Sheila looked at her for a few seconds. Maybe she could get a new recruit.

"Come in and strip." Sheila said. "Or I will strip you myself."

Leticia liked the forcefulness of Sheila. She liked a dominant female. She liked to be submissive. That was how her current relationship was structured.

Sheila let Leticia pass. She saw Mary was in the process of removing her clothes. Her top was already off. Sheila quickly took off her dress and was naked in her high heels.

Leticia looked at Mary as she undressed and was going to say something to Sheila. When she turned around to speak, Sheila was already naked. She looked at Sheila and liked what she saw. She would like to have this dominatrix tell her what she could and could not do or enjoy.

"Wow!" Leticia said. "You look really Hot."

Sheila smiled.

"Thanks. I can make you look just like this." Sheila said as she tugged on each of her rings. "I'm a professional."

Mary was down to her underwear when she spotted Sheila showing off her goods.

"Can I see your piercings again?" Mary asked.

Sheila looked at Leticia.

"As soon as she strips, everyone can see a close up." Sheila said.

Ally did not want this to go too far.

"We are going to remain within reason." Ally said.

Leticia eyed Ally and thought she was the Hottest of all of them. She loved her face. Everything else looked good too but that face. It was to die for.

"What about her?" Leticia asked.

She wanted to know what everything looked like in detail.

Ally was wary of all of these girls.

"I'm the referee." Ally said. "I make sure no one goes too far."

Mary removed her briefs and watched as Laura and Leticia stripped.

Ally and Sheila both made permanent files as to what they watched unfold.

Ally did not remove any of her clothing. The other four girls were naked. Sheila still wore her high heels.

This was a scene that was Hotter than Hot and nobody had even touched anyone else. The atmosphere was somehow more intense than if they were having sex.

John was being driven beyond anywhere he'd been driven before.

It was clear that Cameron really liked Holly's chassis. He did too. He really liked various parts of Hanna's and Sheila's sheaths but he really liked everything on Holly's sheath. That may have been because of the way Cameron operated it too.

John needed to stop and rest for a little bit.

"Cameron, I need a break." John gasped.

Holly-Cameron did not slow down but increased her speed.

"I'm almost there." Holly-Cameron said. "I need to finish."

A few seconds later she quickly slowed and stopped. She dismounted from John and lay next to him.

John turned his head and looked at her.

"This is the best time ever, Cameron." John said.

Holly-Cameron smiled at him.

"Everything about it has been superior for me too." Holly-Cameron said. "It has been beyond beautiful right from the moment you took my virginity until now."

John was a little worried. He wondered if Cameron was going to try and take Holly's chassis from her. He did not even want to say that out loud.

Cameron looked at John. She wanted to keep this chassis for herself. She was sure Holly would trade with her if she asked her to. She could look like her girlfriend Allison then. If she would not trade, Cameron decided she was going to take this chassis from Holly and pull her chip. She blocked these thoughts from Holly. At least she thought she did.

All of a sudden everything went black. Cameron felt different. She was back in her chassis again. She moved the sheet and pillows off of herself. She looked at John and he was fondling Holly. Her eyes were closed so she hadn't rebooted yet.

"I'm over here." Cameron said.

John looked over to his other side and slowly released the large breast he was fondling.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know." John said.

John looked back at Holly one more time and then concentrated on Cameron.

"She is beautiful." Cameron said. "I wish I was her."

John did not want this to get away from him.

"I love you how you are." John said. "I love the gifts you have given me and allowed me to share them with you. We need to honor what these girls have allowed you - us to do."

Cameron hoped John liked having three virgins in three days. The best part of it all was that she was all three of them!

There was some movement.

Holly opened her eyes and sat up a little. She looked at John with love in her eyes and then at Cameron with the same love.

"I want to tell both of you that was the best time of my existence. It was the best time of my life." Holly said. "It was the most beautiful loving experience I've ever shared."

Cameron was still trying to figure out how she got booted back to her own chassis. She also was going to remind Holly that the experience that she'd 'experienced' was actually her experience and Holly only received the file in real time.

John liked everything too. He did not want to get specific.

"Thank you for allowing us to share with you." John said.

Holly didn't think she would feel different after Cameron used her chassis but she did. She felt different and she felt changed. She felt everything was better now. She wanted more of what she'd experienced and she wanted her 'one time' with John. She'd already been in love with Cameron and now she knew she was in love with John. Maybe she always had been since all the time she spent alone with him 'to keep him alive'. He did just take her virginity after all. She wanted him to take it back then. He never touched her once. She needed to remember he still hadn't. It was 'Cameron' that he'd just touched and made love to. She only got the file.

This experience was nothing like she'd heard from any of the human girls, even Jesse and Claire. It was way better. It was what she'd heard from Sheila and Hanna when she asked them what it was like to be with John and them as 'Cameron'.

John could tell Holly wanted more. He did too.

Cameron could see how John and Holly looked at each other. She did not want this to get away from her.

Cameron leaned over and whispered in his ear.

"Remember - it was ME, John." Cameron said.

John broke his gaze from Holly and looked back at Cameron. He swallowed hard. True, it was Cameron but she really put on a performance in Holly's chassis. Holly had that file now and she could emulate it and do everything the same. He really looked forward to their 'one time'. He wanted to see what Holly could do on her own.

Cammy and Savannah looked at their phones. John Henry transmitted Cam's body cam footage to all of them.

Cam looked at Cammy and Savannah.

"Here goes nothing." Cam said again.

Cam slid the dead man's foot into the unknown.

The camera feed went black. Nothing could be seen. The camera showed it was transmitting.

Cammy was tired of fooling around.

"Everyone get back." Cammy said. "I'm going to light that place up, wherever it is.

She took out a Thermite grenade.

Savannah thought about stopping her but she was afraid that Cam or Cammy would try and enter the void.

Cammy armed a Thermite grenade and threw it hard into the unseen portal.

The camera feed remained blank.

Savannah sensed a real danger here.

"I want everyone to fallback now." Savannah said.

The three girls moved to the back of the SUV. Cammy closed the lift gate. It was still open. The SUV and bodies would absorb any bullets from the portal.

Cam and Cammy looked toward the entrance that they'd entered the work area from.

"Someone is coming." Cammy said.

John Henry broke the tension.

"That is Steve and Tom." John Henry said. "They've been ordered to reinforce you."

Savannah figured that order came from Young Allison.

"Have them stay against the north wall when they enter the main workroom floor." Savannah said. "They can join us in the back."

A few seconds later Steve and Tom emerged and headed for their position.

Savannah saw that they both had M203 grenade launchers on their M4 carbines.

"I think we have two choices here." Savannah said. "Shut off the power and hope for the best or attack whatever is inside that portal. We don't know what we can't see."

Cammy was all for that at this point. She looked at Steve and Tom.

"I want both of you to fire HE rounds inside there. Use all your rounds. Cam, Savannah and I will cover you in case anyone comes out." Cammy said.

Cammy gave them a detailed description as to the portal's dimensions. She didn't want and HE round to hit the 'solid' wall. They might get some shrapnel fragments blown back their way.

Savannah agreed with that. The portal was a threat. They didn't know where it led but it led somewhere. She was willing to take some more drastic steps.

"John Henry, if we receive any return fire I want you to cut the power." Savannah said. "If we hear the throb of a giant power cell about to overload everyone is to withdraw from the area."

Tom and Cammy remembered the electrical arcing associated with one of the giant power cells as it malfunctioned before it exploded.

"We might be incapacitated." Tom said.

Savannah remembered that one episode. She thought she was going to die that night. She got the Terminators away to safety and she was left all alone. CamNet saved her with the manned drone which arrived unmanned. Young Allison asked CamNet to help Savannah in any way she could. CamNet did.

"You should all be able to get outside at first even if you are sluggish." Savannah said. "At the first sign of arching I am ordering all of you now to leave the building. This 'order' is unchangeable."

Cammy did not like that.

"What about you?" Cammy asked.

Savannah looked at the four Terminators.

"I will hold this position until you are clear." Savannah said. "There could be a breakout or a counterattack of some type."

They could hear the loud noise of drones approaching. There were a lot of them.

"CamNet is sending five drones into the back parking lot of the building. They will touch down and wait there for immediate evacuation." John Henry said. "Open the roll up door."

Cam went over and opened the door. She wondered why they would not use the pass door.

"Is that for us to use to get out or is something else going to happen?" Cam asked.

"It is for that and for two drones to enter the building and provide direct fire support so Savannah can withdraw." John Henry said. "The drones will both stay and fight until they can no longer function. The drones have volunteered for the assignment."

Savannah knew right away it was 'Cherry Bomb' and 'Coltan Overcast' that volunteered. That brought a tear to her eye. It was time to bring the fight to the enemy. They needed to destroy what was ever on the other side of that portal. Who knew what they could bring through?

"It will be so." Savannah said. "Open fire."

Steve and Tom both began to fire HE rounds into the void.

As soon as the camera feed went blank on Cam's body cam Young Allison acted.

"Have Steve and Tom enter the building the same way the girls did. They are to reinforce Cammy's team immediately." Young Allison said.

Anna saw that CamNet already acted.

"They are on the way." Anna said.

They watched as a Thermite grenade did nothing to light the area.

They heard for Savannah call to cut the power if any return shooting started from the portal.

Anna knew that could cause a large power cell to overload if they were charging it. It must cut off whatever the cooling process was.

"There may be arcing if the power goes out." Anna said. "That will incapacitate the Terminators in a very short time."

Young Allison remembered the incident well as she thought she was going to watch Savannah die before under similar circumstances.

"Send five drones now into the back parking lot." Young Allison said. "Savannah is going to stay to fight to allow them the chance to escape if there is a counterattack and they are sluggish. I need a drone to volunteer to back up Savannah and allow her to escape. It must hold the position at all costs."

Anna received word form CamNet that all the drones volunteered for the task. Two were chosen.

"Every drone volunteered." Anna said. "Two have been selected."

Young Allison smiled a sad smile. She knew it was 'Cherry Bomb' and 'Coltan Overcast' that got the assignment. It brought a tear to her eye.

"Savannah must be protected." Young Allison said.

Anna confirmed what Young Allison already knew.

"'Cherry Bomb' and 'Coltan Overcast' will fight until they are terminated or can no longer function. They will both overload their power cells as they are shut down."

They did not know where this was headed or what the repercussion were going to be.

Young Allison began to think 'bigger'. Maybe it was time to play hardball.

John Henry could see how serious this might become. If there was some kind of large power cell overload and explosion there would be a lot of devastation. He would try to spin it as a meteor or asteroid strike. If the force of the blast was directed in one direction this would be an easier spin.

He contacted CamNet and explained what might be necessary. CamNet readied all the data necessary to feed to all relevant satellites and ground based stations. It would not be entered into the systems until it appeared a power cell breach was imminent.

What worried John Henry the most was Savannah. He was sure she would not withdraw without 'Cherry Bomb' and 'Coltan Overcast'. There was only one way to avoid this. They needed a preexisting 'order' to hold their position that could not be countermanded.

John Henry called Young Allison. She needed to act now to protect Savannah later on. Young Allison made the call that once 'Cherry Bomb' and 'Coltan Overcast' entered the building they were to receive no new orders until the threat was eliminated – or they were. Savannah would not be able to order them out.

What surprised John Henry was that Young Allison gave the drones the option to withdraw from their mission at any point they chose to. This appeared to be a termination mission and they'd volunteered. Still, Young Allison gave them a way out. They may need to make a choice later on. It would be a 'hard call'. He knew that the option left open to the drones would spread that the 'Chosen Ones' would not even order their certain destruction. It would become a choice they could make. This would give more respect to the girls.
