Chapter 1388
Missing Part
Allison wanted to ask about Vanna. She actually expected to see her after she'd left John. She wanted to see how it went. Vanna was afraid she would freeze up. She didn't think Vanna would. She knew Vanna wanted to try it at least one time like she wanted to herself. Like Vanna, she felt there was a difference as to what was done to you without a choice and what you did on your own.
She looked at the open bed. It called to her. She'd just been with Leticia and she was ready to go right now. Leticia took care of all the foreplay and got her there a few times already. It made her wonder if this was going to be anti-climatic. She was ready to find out. She still didn't think it could top how a Metal girl could make her feel.
John straightened the bed a little. When he looked back Allison slipped her robe off and tossed it off to the side.
"I know I can't compare in appearance to some of the others that 'look' like me." Allison said.
John thought it didn't matter. Allison was a knockout.
"You're beautiful just the way you are." John said.
They moved closer and embraced.
They both liked the way they felt in each others arms.
Before John knew it Allison slipped his shorts down and he stepped out of them. That seemed to be a pretty good indication that she was ready for a little more. That also revealed that 'Little Willie' was already up to the task.
"I guess I can skip the part about needing to 'start you up'." Allison said with a smile. "I can see you're at 'full attention'."
Allison was actually glad for that. She didn't look forward to the 'start up' procedure for some reason. Maybe it was something you needed to acquire a taste for.
John looked down and smiled. He was glad he was ready again. That espresso Cameron made him drink earlier really seemed to make things happen. He was still unaware that Cameron administered a little 'help' along with the drink.
Allison pressed herself up against John and put her arms around his neck. She leaned forwards to kiss him.
"I've waited a long time for this." Allison whispered.
John was painfully aware of all the times he'd turned her down in the future. He believed now that was a mistake. All those times should have happened.
"I have too." John said. "I just want to say that we will do whatever you are comfortable with and we can stop or start at any point in time for whatever reason. You are the one in control here. Don't be afraid to say something. I'm cool with anything."
Allison looked into John's eyes. She liked how he presented what would happen. Right now she felt anything but cold feet. She was 'hot to trot'.
"I need to tell you I'm really ready right now." Allison said.
John smiled. Vanna had been too. It just took her a little bit to get comfortable.
"Do you want to be on the bottom or the top or any other position?" John asked. "We will do whatever you feel comfortable with."
Allison looked down at John and gently pushed him back onto the bed. She climbed up on top of him. She started to face away from him but turned around.
"I want you to see ME." Allison said.
Allison positioned herself over him.
John wondered if it would be a 'slow ride' or a 'bucking bronco'. He was in for either one. He was also aware she may freeze up.
Allison giggled a little.
"At least I don't need to worry about getting pregnant." Allison joked. "I already am and it's your baby. Now I get to do the missing part of the procedure."
John could feel Allison's hand as she grasped him. It was slick. She must have touched herself.
John was very excited right now too. He really wanted this.
"Take it." John whispered.
Allison looked into his eyes as she scooted back some more and started to lower herself down.
"Oh, John…." Allison said as she drew in her breath.
Gail-Cam listened for when Vanna was ready to leave the Owner's Suite. CamNet gave her a last minute update.
She left Holly in charge of Mary and Laura and threw on a robe and went to get Vanna. She thought Allison would meet her afterwards. It didn't work out that way.
She guessed that Allison wanted to form her own opinion as to what would happen with John and her and not be influenced by Vanna's experience. It was up in the air as to what Vanna's experience would be. She was not even sure there would be an experience. She was afraid Vanna would 'fold'.
Vanna quickly told Gail-Cam about what happened and what they did.
It was a little different than Gail-Cam imagined it would be.
"Do you want to go back to the Master Suite?" Gail-Cam asked.
Vanna knew Allison was with Leticia while she was in with John.
"I'd like to be with Leticia." Vanna said. "You don't think she will mind do you? You know what I mean."
Cam-Gail was with Leticia right now.
"I think she is good to go for anything at this point." Gail-Cam said.
Vanna gave Gail-Cam a long kiss.
"I want to be with her first." Vanna said. "Then you can join us after either one or both of us finishes twice."
Gail-Cam carried Vanna down to the suite Leticia was in with Cam-Gail. Leticia was breathing heavily after a real work out by Cam-Gail. Gail-Cam set Vanna down and went into the adjoining suite where Holly worked on both Mary and Laura.
Vanna stripped off her robe and climbed in bed next to Leticia.
Leticia seemed instantly rejuvenated when she saw it was Vanna, who she knew as 'Ann'.
Vanna thought Leticia reminded her a lot of Jesse. She was all over her in an instant. Before she could say anything Leticia started in on her. Her head lifted for a second and she started back in with a renewed intensity. There was no doubt about it. THIS is what Vanna liked. She started in on Leticia.
Frank parked the van near Golden Gate Park and walked in. It was a very big park. He went to the spot where the earlier altercation took place. He viewed the drone images of the different gang members that were involved. He did not see any of them around at this point.
He made a sweep of the surrounding area. None of the gang was spotted. He went and checked on the group of homeless men that ventured out. It appeared that most of them were drunk or passed out on drugs at this point. He thought about passing through the center of their area with his silenced M9 and ending their suffering and misery. That was not his assignment. He made one wider sweep on his way back to the van.
It was quiet for now. He would be back tomorrow or one of the team would be. Sheila was very adamant that the park 'belonged' to her now.
As he approached the van he spotted several 'taggers'. That bothered him. He looked around and drew his silenced M9. He made sure no one was looking. He took careful aim and fired twice.
The two taggers were shocked and surprised as the spray cans they each held exploded in their hands and showered them with paint. He saw both of them reach up to their faces. They screamed in pain as the paint coated their faces and went into their eyes.
He moved on to the van. He did not think they would be doing much more 'tagging' tonight. There was some time to kill. He checked in with Jim on the ship. He was not needed yet to pick up the team. He moved the van to a new location. He would wait awhile and then make another sweep of the park. He would look for additional targets this time as well as the specific targets.
He hoped to find some more taggers along the way. He felt he 'tagged' the taggers when he ruptured the spray cans with a silenced 9MM projectile.
Savannah and Sheila started out together. Cameron and Cammy were not far behind and a little off to the side. Ally and Hanna were on the far left side and Bob was on the far right side.
"I'll do the talking." Savannah said.
Sheila didn't want to take any chances.
"I'll move in front of you at the first sign of trouble." Sheila said. "I know you understand."
Savannah knew everyone was concerned for her safety.
"I get it." Savannah said. "We don't know what's going to happen."
Savannah checked her phone. There were two Grays moving towards the position that she wanted to approach. She should be able to reach her objective ahead of the Grays.
The other two teams of Grays were still off on the other side away from where the anti-Metal faction was. It was unknown what they were looking for or if they were operating off of bad information. That seemed the most likely scenario.
Savannah closed in on her objective. She wore her night vision. She could see the man in a ditch. This did not look right to her. There must be something they hadn't detected yet. There needed to be some kind of sleeping area if nothing else.
"I think this is only an ambush." Savannah said. "This was probably prearranged if the man who was killed failed to check in."
Young Allison and Anna listened to what Savannah said.
"I think she's right." Anna said. "The drone scans have not detected anything else there."
Young Allison did not like Savannah walking into an ambush set up for someone else.
"Maybe they should withdraw and we can see what happens after the two groups fight each other." Young Allison said. "If there are survivors from either group we can see where they go."
Anna knew they had plenty of drone support to follow either group.
"We could do that." Anna said.
Young Allison thought about taking some preemptive action.
"I think Ally and Hanna should move closer to Savannah and Sheila." Young Allison said.
Anna wasn't sure if that was a good idea.
"You should consult with Savannah first." Anna said.
Young Allison did not want to make waves with what Savannah wanted to try.
"Maybe we will wait a little bit and see." Young Allison said.
Young Allison wanted to make sure Savannah was protected.
Moments ago:
Summer was in the Command Center. She stopped by and stayed to follow the operation. She stayed out of the way and worked with CamNet from John's station.
John Henry tried to stay ahead of everything. He glanced over at Summer.
"If you see anything I want to know." John Henry said.
Summer repositioned a drone for a wider sweep.
"I have two vehicles that are concealed." Summer said. "I think they belong to the anti-Metal faction."
John Henry checked.
"I don't know how we missed them before." John Henry said.
Summer looked at some past images.
"I think they were just uncovered." Summer said. "There is someone with them too."
They looked at the new images and it looked like someone was folding something up.
"There was some protective cover of some type. It's off now." John Henry said.
Summer checked Bob location to the proximity of the area.
"That is in the sector Bob is near. He needs to use caution." Summer said. "I think they are getting ready to pull out. This might also be a ploy to draw in more of our resources."
CamNet sent over the new information. In the Young bunker they could clearly see the two vehicles.
"There is one more person over there now." Young Allison said.
"It does look like they are getting ready to pull out." Anna said.
"Whatever that cover was on those vehicles it blocked our detection of them." Young Allison said. "It seems that cover was specifically used to block detection by an HK drone."
There were several of their drones in the area.
"I need all the drones to withdraw to a greater distance immediately." Young Allison said. "If they were expecting HK drones, ours are the only ones around. If they could detect HK drones, they should have detected ours too."
Young Allison began to wonder if maybe there was going to be some type of an EMP attack. That would bring down any drones and incapacitate any Terminators. She asked Anna to send out a warning. An EMP could be anything from and EMP grenade to a giant one. They could effect a small area or if done in an airborne burst cover a large area.
Sheila touched Savannah's arm.
"Our drones are withdrawing to a greater distance." Sheila whispered.
Savannah listened to the update.
"That doesn't make any sense either." Savannah whispered. "If they were expecting HK drones why would they uncover the vehicles now?"
Savannah did not like anything about this target area.
"You need to use caution, love." Sheila whispered back.
Savannah moved closer. She heard some rustling off to the side. She saw another man headed towards the location she was almost right behind.
The second man slipped into the ditch with the first man. She was close enough to hear them.
"Did you see them yet?" The first man asked.
"There are four of them." The second man said. "They are almost in the 'kill zone'."
It was clear to Savannah this was an ambush.
"Are they Grays?" The first man asked. "Are any of them Metal?''
"I don't know." The second man said. "I hope if there is any Metal it's a female one this time."
Both men laughed.
"We really had a good time with the one we captured before we left the future." The first man said. "We should have brought her with us."
"We made her do everything with a smile on her face." The second man said. "I liked to see her accommodate five guys at once."
"We got that 'Metal Lover' she was with too." The first man said. "He got what he deserved. He was sleeping with the enemy. I'm glad we made him watch what we did with her. I especially like that he needed to watch as a eunuch. We all laughed as we made his Metal lover do it to him."
Both men laughed as quietly as they could. They still found it amusing.
"I hate those 'Metal Lovers' too." The second man said. "It's people like them that allowed Skynet to get established in the first place."
"The way I see it, the only good 'Metal Lover' is a dead 'Metal Lover'." The first man said.
"We all feel that way." The second man said. "If a human female is not good enough for them, then they are nothing but a Skynet wannabe."
"I say death to every 'Metal Lover'." The second man said.
"I say death to every Skynet creation from computers to Terminators and anyone who associates with them. It does not matter if they are in the Resistance or not." The first man said. "They are all sellouts unless they are with us. It's just that simple."
Savannah listened to the two men. It did not seem like making contact was such a good idea right now. It was evident that these two men were 'Metal Haters' of the worst kind. They bragged about how their group turned a captured female Terminator into a Metal Whore after they made her mutilate her companion. How were they any better than the Resistance fighters who worked with reprogrammed Terminators if they abused one for their personal sexual pleasure?
One of the men looked at his watch.
"When is that EMP supposed to be set off?" The second man asked.
"It should be as soon as one of those Grays trips a Claymore." The first man said. "We want to make sure if they have any Metal with them we bring it down."
"Jameson thought he detected an HK drone earlier but was not positive." The second man said. "He set a trap to bait it in if there is one around. He uncovered the cars. He will blow the 'surprise' if he detects it again."
Savannah received the warning of an EMP from Anna. She was given information on where the Grays and the anti-Metal operatives were all currently at from John Henry. It appeared that the anti-Metal group didn't know there were two Grays that were almost at their position. They were only aware of the four that were about to walk into some kind of an ambush. Based of the warning from the Young bunker and what was happening on the ground it appeared they possessed an EMP to use against Metal or HK drones. It would be as effective against their group. She needed to protect their troops and equipment. It was time to make a decision. It was not a hard one to make.
"I'm ordering all of our Terminators and drones to withdraw immediately." Savannah whispered. "There's too much chance of them getting caught up in this. That EMP worries me."
Sheila looked at Savannah.
"You heard them, love." Sheila said. "You heard what they want to do again. I don't want that to be me."
Sheila disappeared into the darkness.
Savannah did hear the men. It was like Cameron told her over and over. They were so blinded by their hatred they could not see what was better for mankind in the future. She wanted to stop the killing in the Resistance. It did not look possible with this group or at this time. Perhaps the only cure for a 'Metal Hater' was death.
Cameron and Cammy could hear the men converse.
They did not expect Savannah's order to withdraw.
"Savannah is sending us away." Cammy said. "She will be all alone."
"I don't like it either." Cameron said.
Sheila joined them a few seconds later.
"We need to go." Sheila said. "You all heard the order."
Cameron was not happy about it. Cammy seemed even unhappier.
"What about Savannah?" Cammy asked. "What's she going to do?"
"She is very close to one of the positions." Sheila said. "I don't know what she is going to do. Let's go."
Cameron, Cammy and Sheila all pulled back. So did Ally, Hanna and Bob, their drones did too.
CamNet was able to enhance what Savannah's and Sheila's coms picked up. She made sure everyone heard what was said.
"I think that kind of narrows it down." Anna said.
Young Allison was not appalled by what she heard. It was what Cameron always told her.
"It's what I expected." Young Allison said. "Savannah is much more of an optimist than I am."
Anna knew that Young Allison was molded in Cameron's image as much as it was possible for a human to be.
"You heard the order." Anna said. "All of the drones have pulled back to a safe distance except two."
Young Allison knew who the two were that were still in the danger zone.
"I know that is 'Coltan Overcast' and 'Cherry Bomb'." Young Allison said. "We don't know how big the EMP is."
Anna checked their position.
"Unless the EMP is a very large one they should be operational still." Anna said.
Young Allison hoped the blast was small. She was aware that NNEMP devices could have various ranges. If they were detonated on the ground it further limited the damaging effect. It still affected everything in its blast area.
"We'll see." Young Allison said.
The same transmission from Savannah and Sheila played in the Command Center.
John Henry looked over at Summer.
She knew why he looked at her.
"Relax." Summer said. "I know everything about all of that. I've probably forgotten more than most people will ever know."
John Henry chose not to comment. He was aware Summer did not forget much.
"All the drones have moved to a safer distance." John Henry said.
Summer checked the Terminators.
"I don't think all of our Terminators on the ground are." Summer said.
John Henry checked.
"They should be out of the immediate danger zone." John Henry said. "Cameron and Cammy have lagged a little behind."
Summer was glad there were still images from the two drones so John Henry could keep Savannah advised as to where the two groups of the enemy were at.
Jim watched the operation unfold. He was a little upset that he could not watch the action in the two suites. If they'd used the Honeymoon suite he could have seen everything. Then again they tried to keep some insulation of the three girls from the ship and their personal suites in the private area.
The development with Savannah out in the danger zone alone worried him. He wondered at what point they were going to clean this mess up.
Jesse finished up with Precious and handed her to Riley.
"Sorry, love, you get to do the next part." Jesse said.
Riley took Precious and looked around.
"Do you know where Samantha went?" Riley asked.
Jesse only knew she left.
"I don't." Jesse said. "I think John Henry needed her to help him or something."
They did not know CamNet directed Samantha to intercept Claire earlier. That was done at Summer's request. It seemed to please both Claire and Samantha.
Jesse checked to make sure that Riley attended to Precious before she left.
She wondered why John Henry needed Samantha. She thought she would stop by the Command Center and check it out. She would see if Claire was busy while she was at it. She hoped she wasn't.
John Henry and Summer spotted Jesse on the way to the Command Center.
"Jesse will be here in less than a minute." John Henry said.
Summer did not seem concerned.
As they watched, Jesse took out her phone and looked at it. There was a big smile on her face now. She took the next intersection and headed for Claire's room.
"I don't think we need to worry about it." Summer said.
John Henry wondered what message was sent to Jesse and by whom.
"Indeed." John Henry said.
Summer wanted to make it clear.
"Everyone's happy." Summer said. "Leave it at that."
John Henry tilted his head slightly. He did see they were all pleased by what Summer set into motion. He was just surprised that she was ready to use and option like that, especially directed at her own mother.
Savannah did not like what she heard from the two men in front of her. It did not seem there was any way to bargain with them. Their minds seemed made up. She thought Sheila would kill them when they talked about what they did to a captured female Terminator and the Resistance fighter that was with her.
It did not take her long to figure out why Sheila didn't kill them. She left that task up to her. It was a teachable moment. Nothing was spoken but it was clear what needed to be done. She was the one who would have to make the decision. She could crawl away now and let the Grays and anti-Metal group fight it out. She could call for a missile strike and kill everyone around her except for the four men nearest her. She could kill the Grays and still try and make contact with the two men.
The two men faced away from her and they hadn't spotted the two Grays moving towards them from the side. They did not know there was danger that close to them. They did not know she was behind them. That was an even closer danger at this point because of what they said. It did not sit well with her.
Savannah could see the Grays now. They were coming in at an angle towards the two men. It did not seem either group saw each other.
"Maybe one of the Grays will be a chick." The first man said.
"I hope so." The second man said. "I'd really like to bag some skirt or even a female Terminator again."
Savannah was very upset with what she'd heard.
"What if these are 'Metal Lovers' and not Grays?" The first man asked.
"What's the difference?" The second man asked. "They are both sellouts and consorting with the enemy."
"I heard some of the 'Metal Lovers' are females who are with female Metal." The first man said.
"That is just wrong on about three levels." The second man said. "I guess if we catch one we can help reeducate her."
That produced a round of laughter.
Savannah was angry now.
This time the Grays heard the two men and crouched down.
They were about to send a warning to the rest of their group.
There was an explosion in the near distance.
Savannah ducked down. There was supposed to be an EMP set off when the first Claymore was tripped. There was a second explosion. It sounded like a second Claymore was triggered. That was followed by a brilliant flash of light as the EMP was set off.
Savannah came up to a kneeling position with her silenced M9 and locked in on the Grays. They seemed a little stunned by the explosions and the EMP. She fired four times and the Grays both fell. One of them let out a gurgling scream.
The two men in front of her crouched down in the ditch after the first explosion. They expected the EMP to be set off. It was. They wanted to avoid the energy blasted out in all directions. It wouldn't kill humans but who wanted any extra energy of any type to pass through their body?
They both heard the one Gray's gurgling scream.
"There is someone off to the side." The first man said.
"I think they're Grays." The second man said. "They may be all around us."
They both searched for a target.
Savannah debated what to do. She did not want to kill them but she was not sure if there was any other option at this point.
Young Allison did not like the drones to pull back so much. They still could see the battlefield but everything would be done at long range. That ruled out everything but missile support.
"Savannah needs to act or withdraw." Anna said.
They watched one explosion followed by a second where the Grays were across from the anti-Metal faction. There was a bright flash of light after that.
"There goes the EMP." Young Allison said.
Anna checked on the Terminators.
"They are all far enough away they were not affected." Anna said.
Young Allison hoped there was not a second blast.
"Have them all hold for a little bit before they are released to enter the combat zone again." Young Allison said. "I don't like surprises."
Cameron and Cammy felt some of the EMP energy.
"I think we are OK." Cameron said.
Cammy was a little confused.
"Are we?" Cammy asked.
Cameron was ready to go back up Savannah when she was given the order to wait.
That did not sit well with her. She was not used to taking 'orders'. She'd didn't have a choice. Savannah was in charge of this operation and she was the only one on the battlefield at this point.
