Chapter 1372
Hard To Top
John and Cameron returned to the private area. They wanted to go back to the Owner's Suite.
No one opened the door for them. That might not be a good sign.
Cameron opened the door to the private area and then the door for their suite.
"You can take it easy for a few minutes." Cameron said.
John wondered if there was a problem.
"Is everything OK?" John asked.
Cameron smiled at him.
"Everything is perfect." Cameron said. "I just need to check on a few things. I'll be right in."
John went into the Owner's Suite and Cameron went to the Control Center.
Jim updated her on the operation that Cammy and Savannah were on.
There was one thing Cameron wanted more information on.
"What about the operation last night?" Cameron asked. "It seems there was more to it."
Jim knew there was but John Henry restricted the information about it because CamNet wanted the information suppressed. She wanted to keep the full extent of Young Allison involvement kept clandestine for now.
"I'm more concerned with where Cammy and Savannah are now." Jim said. "The building is wired and booby trapped."
Cameron's concern went up.
"Savannah and Cammy should withdraw and turn the operation over to one of the other teams." Cameron said.
Jim doubted that was going to happen until they were done with their search of the building. He thought that if Savannah was there with Cameron instead of Cammy they would do the same thing. There was no need to point that out.
"That's for John Henry to decide." Jim said.
Cameron wanted to see more about what Sheila and Ally encountered with Leticia and the altercation in the casino. She began to review that past footage.
Jim looked over at her monitor.
"She's beautiful." Jim said.
Cameron thought so too. She wanted to know more about the part where Sheila 'bought' her.
Jim went over what happened as Cameron watched the security feed. It was not an actual 'purchase' of a human being. It was more a settlement of a monetary dispute.
Cameron wanted to know more about the three girls.
"The girls all have a weak financial status." Jim said. "Mary is the least indebted and Leticia is the most in debt."
Cameron saw the girls were all thousands of dollars in debt. She wondered why they were on the cruise if they owed money. She realized many passengers put their cruise on a credit card and would pay for it 'later'. That seemed to be the norm rather than the exception.
"I want to know everything about those three girls." Cameron said. "I want you to have CamNet track everything back on them. If anything stands out I need to know immediately."
Cameron saw an elevator surveillance camera pop up on a screen.
"It appears Vanna and Allison are about to find out a little more about Mary and Laura." Jim said.
Cameron saw the four girls in the elevator. She listened to their conversation.
"That's why I need to know immediately." Cameron said.
She listened to see what John was doing in their suite next door. It sounded like he just finished using the restroom.
Cameron left The Control Center and went to the Honeymoon Suite. She did not go through her suite but back out the way she'd come in. The four Metal girls there all stopped sharing and came out of the two bedrooms. They were all naked.
Cameron watched them line up in a row.
"Who would like for me to use their chassis?" Cameron asked.
All four girls stepped forward.
Cameron could not decide which one she wanted the most. She wanted all of them.
Gail-Cam and Holly asked about Vanna and Allison.
"They are currently in the process of making 'new friends'." Cameron said. "I do not think they will be back for a few hours."
Cameron took the little note pad on the desk and marked an 'X' on one piece of paper. She folded it in half and in half again. She folded three blank pieces the same way. There was an ice bucket that was empty. She dropped the four papers inside and shook it.
"I want you to each take one" Cameron said as she held the bucket up. "Don't look."
The Metal girls were still lined up in a row.
They each took a paper.
Cameron watched as they opened them.
Cam-Gail, Hanna and Gail-Cam all came up blank. They all looked disappointed.
Holly had the paper with the 'X' on it.
"It will be the same way as before." Cameron said. "Is that what you want?"
Holly was glad Cameron did it for her. It made everything simpler.
"It is." Holly said.
Hanna hoped to get Holly's 'spot'.
"Remember, Allison is here." Hanna said.
Cameron already made sure Holly knew what Allison was about to do.
"She's busy." Holly said. "My chassis will be too."
Cameron took Holly by the hand.
She looked at the three Metal girls that came up short.
"Thank you for your assistance." Cameron said.
Gail-Cam went and got a robe for Holly.
"Here." Gail-Cam said. "It will make John nervous if you show up naked to begin with."
Holly slipped the robe on and left with Cameron.
The three Metal girls headed for the main bedroom and picked up where they left off. They all felt more than a little disappointed.
John was surprised to see Cameron enter through the front door of their suite. He expected to see her enter through the connecting door from the Control Center. He was even more surprised to see Holly behind her in a robe.
"Hi, John." Holly said.
John could see she looked a little shy. He saw the tether in Cameron's hand.
"Hello, Holly." John said.
John wanted to make sure Holly was here on her own accord.
"Is this what you want?" John asked.
Holly wanted to make it clear it was what she wanted.
"I asked Cameron if she could use my chassis again." Holly said. "That's if it is OK with you. I would like that very much."
John expected to be with Cameron as herself but Holly looked really fine to him. The robe was not closed tight and her breasts were bulging.
They 'called' to him.
John didn't need to think about it when Holly slipped off her robe. He took in her naked beauty.
"It's fine with me if it is with you and if Cameron is the one in control." John said.
Cameron slipped off her shoes and handed John the tether.
Holly and Cameron both moved their hair out of the way. There were two audible 'clicks' as John plugged both of them in.
He thought Cameron would strip but she did not. She pulled back the covers and moved to one side of the bed. That left John and Holly to look at each other.
John reached out and touched Holly's left breast. She smiled and giggled.
He heard Cameron behind him still getting situated.
John quickly withdrew his hand when he realized Cameron was not ready yet.
They both felt something that started years ago. In that moment they waited for Cameron, they both felt 'love'.
John and Holly really shared a moment as they stared at each other.
Cameron watched them look at each other before she pulled the pillow over her head. She knew how they both felt. Duplicate Cameron hid on Holly's chip for fifteen months. She possessed all those files.
Holly closed her eyes and then opened them again.
She lifted John's hands to her voluptuous breasts.
"I'm here now, John. Take as much as you want." Holly-Cameron said. "We are going to do everything."
John was highly excited right now.
Holly-Cameron rapidly undressed him.
They moved to the bed together.
"I am going to lead." Holly-Cameron said.
John always liked that.
"I hope I can keep up." John said.
Holly-Cameron smiled.
"I don't think you'll have a problem." Holly-Cameron said.
It was something she 'took care of' during one of his three lunches. The medicine was ingested and he should be good to go.
Allison and Vanna were just as surprised to see Mary and Laura as they were to see them.
The two pairs of girls both looked at each other.
Mary still wanted to be with 'Sue' who was really Sheila but 'Peggy' and her red headed friend 'Ann' both looked mighty fine. Sue was not there. She was very aware that if you could not love the one you wanted, then you love the one you're with.
The girls got to talking as the elevator went up.
It went all the way up to the sky lounge.
"I guess we should have pushed a button." Allison said.
Laura did not want them to 'get away'. She gave them some options.
"We can look around in here if you want or we can go where the line dancing will be." Laura said. "We can just hang out too."
It was clear both sets of girls were very interested in each other.
It looked like Vanna set her sights on Mary. That was fine with Laura and Allison. They sized each other up and were ready for more.
Allison started to have second thoughts about this before they got in the elevator. Once Mary and Laura entered the elevator they were able to check them out in detail. Allison forgot her earlier inhibitions. The thrill of being with someone new excited her greatly. These girls were cute and curvy. They were young too. It all added to the allure.
Vanna was hungry for some 'fresh meat'. This ship-borne encounter was just what she wanted. It would be someone new and Hot and then they would be gone. It was just like it was in the 'old days', the future. You got the thrill and none of the headaches or baggage that always followed any relationship. The only trouble with the girls that 'passed through' from the future was none of them ever looked a tenth as good as Mary and Laura did right now. There would not be an open sores or scars on Mary or Laura.
She looked at Allison and she nodded back. It looked like it was a go. They planned to see how it went but it looked like it was going to go all the way. They would each be with one girl first and then switch at some point and be with the other girl.
Vanna moved away with Mary over to one side to give Allison and Laura some room. She looked back and saw Laura move in on Allison and kiss her. She turned back to face Mary and she was right there and started to kiss her. She briefly thought of Allison and Cam before her excitement overtook her and she started to kiss Mary back. Sheila said the girls were 'clean' and that was good enough for her.
The four girls all liked what they started. It was decided they would go back to one of their rooms and take it a step or two further.
Laura really liked 'Barbara', who was actually Cameron and how she looked. That wine was the best she'd ever tasted.
"What about your sister?" Laura asked. "Will she be there?"
Allison frowned.
"She's kind of uptight." Allison said. "I'd rather she not know what we do, at least not at first."
Laura nodded. She knew 'family' didn't always understand.
They headed for the elevator again. The door opened as they approached. The four girls entered and the door closed. Mary and Laura's deck was already selected.
"I'd say 'going down' but that seems pretty evident at this point." Laura said.
The four girls laughed.
The kissing picked up in the elevator. The girls openly fondled each other on the ride down.
As soon as the elevator opened they hurried to Mary and Laura's cabin.
Allison and Vanna were shocked at how small the cabin actually was. The bathroom in their suite was bigger than the cabin and their shower was bigger than the bathroom.
The girls started to undress each other.
Vanna reached down and touched her abdomen.
Mary noticed.
"Is something wrong?" Mary asked as she continued to strip.
"I have a scar." Vanna said. "It's big."
The girls were all naked in no time.
"I think we can come up with a few positions where it would not be seen or noticed." Mary said. "It's not a problem. Most of my scars are internal. There are plenty of them too. Everyone is who they are and how they are."
Vanna was glad she did not ask her what happened.
Allison and Vanna looked at the piercings that Sheila did on the two girls. Mary and Laura proudly showed off both sets.
"That is so hot." Allison said.
Mary flipped her nipple rings back and forth a few times to show them off.
"The rings would be hard to top." Mary said.
Vanna looked at Allison and nodded at Laura.
Allison understood what Vanna wanted to do.
Vanna guided Mary to her right breast and Laura to her left breast. Both girls started in on her and almost immediately their heads popped up and they looked at each other.
"I think she just topped it." Mary said. "I've never been with anyone lactating before."
Laura hoped Mary would save some for her when they switched partners later on.
Mary and Vanna got in on one side of the bed and Allison and Laura on the other side. They would be together in close quarters once things got started. It would make switching much easier though. The girls were all in a hurry to 'make it' for round one so they could get to round two with the other girl. It would be on round three when they were back with the first girl where they would really share.
It was hard to say which of the four girls was the most excited.
Jim tried to follow the operation with Savannah and Cammy but what happened in the elevator and sky lounge distracted him. He really wished he'd put a set of cameras in Mary and Laura's room. He planned to up the 'security'. One could never be safe enough.
He did not find anything detrimental about any of the three girls other than weak financial records. He saw no reason to stop anything. Holly was in the Owner's Suite with Cameron and John. The other three Metal girls were occupied in the Honeymoon Suite. He did have cameras in there and the girls knew about them.
He needed to keep track of Ally and Sheila since they were headed back to the casino.
He would need to keep an eye on Leticia too.
Jim informed Ally and Sheila that Allison and Vanna were on the move. They were surprised to learn that they may have hooked up with Mary and Laura.
They learned that Cameron was back in her suite with Holly and John.
"Holly got lucky." Sheila said. "John would have picked me if I'd been there."
Jim said he did not know the selection method.
"That means I'm 'Barbara' instead of 'Peggy' when Allison is out and Cameron and Cam-Gail are occupied." Ally said.
Sheila spotted the female that was rough with Leticia in a lounge outside the casino. A dozen things flashed through her mind that she would like to do to her. If they were not on the ship, about half of them would have already happened. She would have 'worked' on her and dumped the mutilated remains in the trash where they belonged.
"I just saw that 'Bitch'." Sheila said. "I should snap her neck. I didn't like the way she looked at me."
Ally didn't want trouble.
"Let it go unless she hassles Leticia again." Ally said. "She was warned."
Sheila would take exception to that.
Jim followed up and found out Leticia ran up about two thousand dollars on the aggressive female's credit card in San Diego.
"I think I laid about five thousand dollars on her." Sheila said. "That Bitch got back double her money."
Ally was sure the bigger prize in that deal was Leticia.
"I would rather be with Leticia than have the money." Ally said. "Look at all this crap here."
Ally indicated the bucket of chips she held.
"If we can't get one of the females to put out for us we can always give them an 'incentive'." Sheila said.
Ally frowned. She knew Sheila was joking. She didn't want to 'buy' someone's affection.
"If it's not for free, it's not for me." Ally said. "I don't want it."
They entered the casino and cashed in the chips to Ally's onboard account. They did not want it associated with Sheila since she was technically a member of the crew.
Bob still hung around on the casino deck. He was not sure the aggressive female would not cause any more problems. She'd gone on a shopping spree with the money Sheila gave her and now she was drinking heavily in a lounge near the casino. It was early in the afternoon to be drinking so much. If she did not have a high tolerance level she was going to be a problem later on.
Now Ally and Sheila were back in the casino. He would need to keep track of them. He asked Jim to keep him posted on where everyone was at and what they were doing. He did not want a confrontation to develop. He knew Sheila well enough to know she would not just terminate the crazy Bitch outright. There would be some retribution to go with it.
Leticia was upset about her encounter with the aggressive Bitch and excited about her rescue by 'Peggy' and 'Sue'. She hadn't been in a fight in a few months. She was ready if that Bitch caused her any more trouble. She may be submissive most of the time but he still knew how to fight back. She'd learned plenty on the streets growing up.
She liked the all chips that 'Peggy' carried around.
Mary mentioned they were good gamblers.
She would like to hit the 'jackpot' with both of them. She did not care about the monetary kind either.
John Henry was able to find the video feed that Jim rigged up in the Honeymoon Suite. He could watch the Metal girls interact live. It was almost as good as when he checked out Jesse and Claire.
Summer made her way back to the Command Center. Once again John Henry did not know she was there. She watched him check out the Metal girls on the ship. She was there to follow the operation with Cammy and Savannah.
"Did you track down where those surveillance images were being sent?" Summer asked.
John Henry jumped.
"Summer, you're back." John Henry said.
Summer wanted to mess with him a little.
"Are you sure I ever actually left?" Summer asked.
That worried John Henry some. He may have looked at a few more images that he should not have. He could view them through his server but it was not as stimulating as when he view them through his chassis and the 'feedback' they produced.
He was not really sure what to make of Summer.
"I mean this in a good way." John Henry said. "I'm not really sure of anything when you're around."
Summer smiled.
"That's the way I like it." Summer said.
They both went to work and concentrated on where Cammy and Savannah were.
Cammy checked with John Henry to see if he isolated the two camera feeds. She wanted them looped so they could move around unhindered inside the building. She also wanted a location where that feed ended up at. She planned to pay that location a personal visit. She wanted to personally show her appreciation for them leaving the booby traps for Savannah and her.
"I have the camera feeds looped." John Henry said. "I'm still working on a destination."
Steve and Tom asked if they could join them inside the building. They could help disarm the booby traps and rig them to be command detonated by their team at a time of their choosing. They picked up some supplies from the delivery van that Michael and Richard arrived in. It was stocked with a better cache of weapons too.
Savannah warned them to enter the same way they did and make no deviations.
They said they would arrive in a few minutes.
Savannah figured they were already on their way before they asked. She knew they all wanted to look out for Cammy and her.
They started their search of building once the camera feeds were looped. They still needed to be wary of the other doors that were booby trapped.
"What do you think we will find?" Savannah asked.
Cammy hoped it would not be any dead bodies. Her olfactory receptors did not detect any so far. The fact Grays were here at one point raised the possibility. This group of Grays put the grab on wayward females before. They were also involved in a fight with the Fanatics.
"We will probably find trouble." Cammy said. "I'm sure that this is just the beginning of this operation."
Cammy moved to another booby trap.
Savannah wondered who set the booby traps.
"Is there any way to tell which group left these booby traps?" Savannah asked.
Cammy disarmed two of them so far.
"No." Cammy said. "It could be anyone."
Savannah knew that included the anti-Metal faction too.
They received an updated from John Henry. Steve and Tom were about to enter the building.
Savannah and Cammy moved away from the doorway as Tom followed by Steve entered.
Cammy gave them a quick run down on the two devices she'd disarmed. They set about disarming the others and then started to rig them so John Henry could command detonate them.
Savannah moved over to a work bench by the rail siding. There were some papers scattered about. She looked through them but saw nothing of importance. She would collect them and let John Henry look further into them later on.
Cammy moved over to the rail siding. She could see the marks on the cement loading dock where it looked like several HK Tracks were unloaded. She could see there were at least five. There may have been a sixth one too. The marks led to the truck loading dock on the side of the building. It appeared that two trucks were loaded side by side. That was what the track marks showed on the concrete floor. It took Terminator vision to spot them. There could have been a third truck too.
There must have been two to four HK drones in the boxcars as well. She did not see anything that looked like track marks from an HK Tread. There was one of them sometimes in a group of two boxcars but not always. It did not appear this load contained any.
There was no forklift or any machinery in the building so the HK drones must have been flown into the trucks from the boxcars. They could have been flown outside too and ended up anywhere.
Tom and Steve would finish up in the workroom area. Savannah turned the papers she found over to Steve.
"Let's check the office rooms up front." Cammy said.
Savannah was worried some of them could be wired.
"We need to use caution." Savannah said. "The two front doors were wired."
Cammy knew they were wired but there were no explosives in the front part of the building. At least none were spotted or openly visible. It didn't mean there weren't any.
"John Henry has control of the alarm signal and the booby traps are all under our control at this point." Cammy said. "Steve and Tom will finish rigging them up for us to use."
Savannah wanted to find out where the trucks went that offloaded the HK equipment.
"There should be some traffic cam footage that shows at least two trucks in close proximity to each other passing at one of the major intersections near here." Savannah said.
"John Henry and CamNet are checking everything." Cammy said.
Savannah knew a Gray or Terminator covered up the movement of the rail cars. That was not the first time either that someone covered the movement of the rail cars.
"There is no record of the rail cars being delivered here or picked up from here." Savannah said. "We know that was covered up and the records changed or deleted."
They thought previously that was done with a Terminator.
Cammy and Savannah moved back into the central hallway. She knew the layout of the office area from the blueprints.
"There are four rooms, a restroom and two closets. One closet is for storage. The other one is more of a utility room. It contains the water heater and electrical room." Cammy said.
Cammy opened the door to the utility room.
Savannah spotted a ladder in the far corner.
"Where does that ladder go?" Savannah asked.
Cammy went over and looked at it. It did not look like a roof access ladder.
"There is only one way to find out." Cammy said.
Young Allison and Anna were glad that Steve and Tom went to assist Cammy and Savannah. They could deal with the booby traps.
"Other than the booby traps, that building looks like a dead end." Anna said.
Young Allison was not sure she liked that terminology.
"It appears that way." Young Allison said.
They listened to Cammy and Savannah talk about checking out the front part of the building.
"Where does that ladder go?" Savannah asked.
"There is only one way to find out." Cammy said.
Young Allison wanted to assist them if possible.
"Let's go over the blueprints again." Young Allison said. "Have John Henry ask them to wait a minute."
Anna sent the information.
"He has and he's checking the building plans again as well." Anna said.
Young Allison thought the building was a trap but Cammy spotted marks in the floor that indicated HK Tracks were inside so something was actually there at one point.
"I think I found something." Anna said.
Anna did not think what she found was significant but she passed it on to John Henry.
Maybe there was more here than they thought. Nothing was ever as it seemed or easy once they looked into it.
