Chapter 1527
Better This Way
Cam was between the last two cars on the empty tram. She was going to make her way back up to Level Four by hitching a ride on the loaded tram once it started uphill. It hadn't pulled up yet.
She peeked over the top of the metal rim of the second to the last car as she waited. One of the workers was over by where she'd hidden earlier near the barrels. He looked at the ground. The dust was thick where she'd been. Maybe her foot prints stood out as being smaller. Maybe he was after something else.
The Terminator signaled that he was about to initiate another blast. Everyone sought some cover.
She listen to Gail give her report and Bob's report where Jim and him were at. She thought maybe they could take some of these people down now.
There were four Grays with their backs to her now crouched down behind equipment. The worker near the barrels worried her the most. There would be an alarm raised if he found her sabotage. That would endanger the entire team.
She drew her silenced M9.
"I'm going to thin the herd." Cam said.
She gave a brief description of what she was about to do.
Gail watched the Metal Bitch go into a room with a loud electrical hum and close the door.
She'd moved to the completed clean room and opened the door so Toto could go inside. There was an interface port where it could dock for the transfer of all of its data. There would be a little 'extra' data with the next transfer.
Gail heard two Grays somewhere. It was the same two voices she'd heard earlier. She still didn't know where they were or where they'd been. They sounded like they were over by where Bob and Jim left their long guns. That wasn't a good turn of events if that was the case. The clock was running and the team was spread out on three different levels of the mine now.
She held her silenced M9 in one hand and her Taser in the other.
"I'm going to thin the herd." Cam said.
Cam gave a brief description of what she was about to do.
"I think am going to need to do so as well." Gail said.
She gave a brief description of what she was about to do.
Bob and Jim watched Toto run off. They knew where it was headed. There were three Grays in the main passageway of Level Three. It seemed to be the living quarters and the supply area.
"I'm going to thin the herd." Cam said.
Cam gave a brief description of what she was about to do.
"I think am going to need to do so as well." Gail said.
Gail gave a brief description of what she was about to do.
They all discussed that there was a possibility that once Toto started its download into the Skynet mainframe an alarm would be raised.
Jim and Bob thought if that was the case. They could 'clean house' on Level Three down to Level Four. They would thin the herd as well.
"I think we will disable the Main Shaft elevator entry onto Level Three and terminate all opposition." Bob said.
The team could unite and work its way back through Level Four to the Main Shaft and the vertical conveyor belt for the rock and earth.
The four Terminators agreed to act. They were on a timetable.
CamNet noted the change in plans to go from a recon to an attack. She was able to have several satellites overfly the mine. There were three of them now and two more on the way. It took time to change the orbits and cover her tracks that the satellites were moved. She needed to loop the data they sent to simulate their scheduled course. They would have coverage every eighteen minutes, give or take a few minutes. There were two drones on standby that would move into position once enemy opposition was noted on the ground. It was doubtful that Skynet would be able to respond at that point to their drones. That meant the team would be hard at 'work' inside the mine.
John Henry listened to the Terminators decide to act. They planned to take down the mine complex from the inside and terminate as many of the personnel before they made their way out.
"The clock is definitely running now." Summer said.
John Henry was aware of the explosives with timers that were already placed. Their detonation could be sped up or stopped by a command that would override the timer.
"Bob and Jim have placed enough repeaters so that the team will be able to communicate with each other, even if they lose surface contact." John Henry said.
Summer was worried about Toto as well.
"Gail opened the door to the clean room so Toto should be able to start the transfer of the encryption as soon as it docks." Summer said. "If Toto can't dock, it can still send the signal at a slower rate with its video files."
John Henry was worried about that.
"The slower speed might allow Skynet to try to contain it if it's detected." John Henry said. "The alarm could be raised as well once it figured out that Toto has been infected."
They would need to wait and see how things played out inside the mine.
John Henry and Summer waited for the shooting to start.
Young Allison and Anna listened as the mission changed.
"This is a new step." Anna said.
Young Allison knew the danger level increased.
"It may be better this way." Young Allison said. "If Skynet raises the alarm when Toto makes its move, there should be less people to respond."
Anna still didn't like that there was no exit strategy for the team.
"They need to get out in just over an hour and a half." Anna said.
That was a worry of Young Allison as well.
"I want CamNet to have her TDE up and running as we near the last fifteen minutes." Young Allison said. "With the latest information from Bob and Jim based on the Main Shaft's location, we have a good representation of the actually layout of Level Three and Level Four. I'm only worried about the actual depth calculations."
Anna knew that was covered as well now.
"Jim placed a repeater on the top of the elevator." Anna said. "We know the height of the elevator itself and it can be tracked to the surface for an accurate depth of both Level Three and Level Four."
There was still one major worry for Young Allison.
"The chances of losing communications are less now with the repeater on the elevator itself." Young Allison said. "There's a repeater in the Main Shaft at Level Four. There is nothing other than the elevator to get the signal to the surface. CamNet needs to have control of the elevator itself."
Anna worried about triggering an alarm.
"CamNet has stayed away from all of the electrical systems and the electrical power itself into the mine from the surface to avoid detection." Anna said. "She's ready to attack all of those functions separately or all at once."
Young Allison wanted some safeguards for the team.
"If we see what looks like more troops on the surface that are headed down. She needs to disable the elevator." Young Allison said.
Anna was notified by John Henry that there was a contingency plan for that.
"Summer has suggested if any troops mass and enter the elevator that the elevator should stop at Level Two." Anna said. "The troops will have no choice but to remove the blockage and enter Level Two. It is doubtful that they will all have night vision equipment. Level two will turn into a death trap for them. Depending on how fast they act. Most if not all of the Grays will still be trapped on that level when the mine begins to explode and collapse."
Young Allison liked the plan. She wanted to make a slight modification.
"Have the elevator stop right below Level Two when that happens." Young Allison said. "They can get to the top of the elevator but not out of the bottom. It will be solid rock on all sides of them. They can try to climb up the cables which should be covered with grease or make their way on their own into Level Two. It will seem like their choice. It should make them less cautious if it's not a forced choice. Make sure all radio and cell traffic is blocked as well so no one knows what's really happening."
Anna and Young Allison waited for the shooting to start.
Sheila was in the process of beating the punk to death. She'd already broken a dozen bones.
Leticia watched as Sheila brutalized the gang member. She wore a pair of night vision goggles.
Cammy stood watch but was ready to assist Sheila if necessary.
Leticia took a step back to where Cammy was at.
"When will she use the knife?" Leticia whispered.
Cammy figured it would be shortly. The punk was about to go into shock.
"It will need to be soon." Cammy said. "Do you want to do it?"
Leticia was thrilled and terrified at the same time. She'd never hurt anyone like that even if she caused men to do that to themselves because they couldn't be with her.
"I think I'll watch on this one." Leticia said. "I've never done anything like that. There've been more than a few men I wanted to do that to."
Cammy didn't want Leticia to forget what the gang did to the two foreign tourists yesterday or what the gang would have done to them if the Metal girls hadn't intervened a few days ago.
"They don't care who they hurt." Cammy said. "Justice will be served tonight. That could have been your underwear in his pocket a few days ago…."
Leticia knew it was close to that. She wanted to know why Cammy and Sheila's eyes glowed red earlier.
"Can you tell me about your eyes?" Leticia asked.
Cammy didn't like where this was headed.
"They're brown." Cammy said.
Leticia would ask Sheila later.
"They're beautiful." Leticia said.
Sheila listened to the conversation as she broke another bone on the punk.
"It's Showtime, love." Sheila said. "Cammy's going to remove your goggles for you and she is going to light the area with her phone. I want this tough gang member to see what happens next."
Cammy removed Leticia's goggles and the room went dark for her.
"Look away until you see the light and slowly turn back so your eyes adjust." Cammy said.
Leticia could see the smile on Sheila's face. She really was into it.
"Are you going to take the whole 'package' at the same time or split it up?" Leticia asked.
Cammy didn't want Sheila to mess up her clothes too bad with blood.
"You need to watch out for arterial blood spray." Cammy said. "We're still going to be in public for a few more hours."
Sheila could see she needed to act fast. The punk was fading out. She placed her foot down over the area above where she would use the knife. She pushed down hard to block the flow of blood. Another bone could be heard to break in the area.
"This takes more force than you'd think." Sheila said. "For me it's a snap."
Sheila brought the knife up in one quick motion. The punk shuddered violently for a few seconds.
His eyes were wide in terror as he saw what Sheila now held in front of his face.
"The girls you've assaulted send their regards." Sheila said.
Sheila removed the gag and replaced it with what she held. She made sure Cammy and Leticia were off to the side. She removed her foot carefully and a spray of blood shot across the floor.
"We're done here." Sheila said.
The punk withered around on the floor. His movements slowed and soon stopped in two minutes.
Sheila left everything but the female's underwear there.
"Let's go." Cammy said.
Cammy turned off her light and took Leticia's arm to guide her out. As soon as they were outside the full moon would provide Leticia with enough light to see.
Leticia looked back once. All she saw in the darkness were two red eyes. She knew that was Sheila. She wondered what the special girls really were. She doubted they were 'robots' and they said they weren't aliens. What were they?
"Is that the lifestyle you want?" Sheila asked.
Leticia was surprised that Sheila was next to her already. She needed to watch her step.
"Are the people you 'punish' all guilty of sex crimes?" Leticia asked. "Or are they responsible for other brutal crimes against humanity?"
Sheila liked the question.
"Yes. They all are. They are all guilty of crimes against humanity." Sheila said. "Are you in?"
Leticia wanted to know more. She hoped to see what else happened tonight. She felt she had a personal score to settle with a lot of people for things that were done to her over the years.
Mary told her about the people and the machines from the future. She wanted to know more about that too. She was sure that this was a way bigger operation than what could be seen right now.
"I'll think about it." Leticia said. "I want to know more about the future too. I know that's a factor."
Cammy and Sheila looked at each other. They headed back out to the SUV.
Dan and Frank were given more information from CamNet. There were four of the gang members in the park. One of them was the female.
There was one other male gang member on the way to the park now. He'd just robbed a liquor store three minutes ago. He cleaned out the cash register and took two bottles of hard liquor.
They moved to intercept him. They knew where he was headed. He was spotted a short time later.
"I have a visual." Frank said.
Frank pulled over and let Dan out. They knew the destination of the punk so Frank passed by him and stopped a block in front of him. There was a strip mall on the corner. They would take him in the alley of that location.
CamNet notified Sheila and Cammy. She also notified Ally and Hanna.
Earlier:
Ally received the footage from Cammy's phone. She did more than light the area. She sent a live feed of the finally.
"Do you girls want to see justice?" Ally asked.
Mary and Laura looked at each other.
"I'll watch." Mary said.
Mary watched what Sheila did earlier or at least some of it at the place where they'd been captured.
Laura wasn't so sure.
"I might look away." Laura said.
Ally held her phone so everyone could see. They watched Sheila finish things up.
"That was fast." Mary said.
Laura wanted to make sure what she saw.
"She put it in his mouth?" Laura asked.
Ally wanted to remind the girls of the danger they'd been in.
"Just remember, that might have been your underwear that he kept as a trophy." Ally said.
Hanna wanted to make things clear.
"He would have put that in you." Hanna said. "Now it's in his mouth instead."
They watched the image of the punk thrash around and then just stop.
"That's it?" Mary asked.
"That's it." Ally said.
"He'll never attack another female or male and he won't give anyone else HIV." Hanna said.
Mary and Ally looked at each other.
"Do you mean if we would have survived the attack we could have ended up with AIDS?" Laura asked.
"It was a possibility." Ally said.
Hanna and Ally received the update that Dan and Frank acquired the next punk.
"They've located the next target." Hanna said.
Laura wanted to see first hand but from a distance.
"Can we watch from the SUV?" Laura asked.
Ally received updated information.
"They have him cornered in an alley." Ally said.
Mary wanted some further retribution with the new information they'd learned.
"Let's go." Mary said. "Those bastards could have killed us in more ways than one."
John was on top of Camille they gently hugged and kissed as they shared the feeling of love. They weren't having sex at this point.
Earlier:
Camille liked how John started out but she knew the girls could all do that a little better. She thought he did a good job though. He stayed with it until she made it. She was really ready for the next part.
She was filled with anticipation as John moved over the top of her. She felt some tension as he made his move.
"Go slow." Camille whispered. "I've never done this before."
That always excited John to hear someone say that. He felt this was even more exciting with Camille in her own chassis than it was with Cameron in control of it on the ship.
It drove him to a higher level to feel Camille arch her back and twist her head to the side as he completed the union to its fullest depths.
She turned her head back and looked at him with wide eyes as he started in.
This was the part where the human females would gasp for breath but the Metal girls didn't need to breathe.
They were very content in each others arms.
John stayed with it until she finished. He almost did too but held back.
"That was beautiful, John." Camille said. "I wanted you to finish inside me."
John kissed her.
"I will." John said.
Camille thought about it. She rolled John over on to his back and was on top of him now.
That was what John wanted. The Metal girls could operate on top and not get tired or need to stop. They could continue at the same pace indefinitely. They could speed up or go slower.
"My turn…." Camille whispered. "Let me have it."
John shared a long kiss with her as she started to move.
"Just keep the pace steady and I will." John whispered.
Camille started out slow and picked up the tempo. She also was able to gauge the distance for a maximum stroke. That increased the pleasure for both of them.
It was John's turn to squirm a little bit and gasp for breath as Camille continued to pick up speed.
He watched her face and could see she was about to make it again. He did too.
Camille finished at the same time John did but she continued at the same speed and made it again. John squirmed wildly beneath her as she did. She slowed and stopped.
John got his breath back.
They shared a long soft deep loving kiss.
"I want more of this." Camille whispered. "The end result is the same as the other ways but the journey is different. I liked it a lot."
John didn't think Cameron would allow the Metal girls more than the 'one time' she'd promised them for stripping each of their virginity away as she took over control of their chassis before.
"Cameron may not allow you more that what she'd promised." John said. "I'm actually surprised she allowed us to have this beautiful experience."
Camille didn't ask anyone. She'd acted on her own. It was a spur of the moment thing that was driven by the setting.
"She doesn't know." Camille said. "I didn't ask."
John sat up a little bit. That sounded like trouble. Cameron seemed to know everything.
"Relax." Camille said. "She doesn't know about Mary and Laura either."
John was a little worried. He may have stepped out of the limits of what Cameron would allow for the 'conclusion' of their honeymoon.
"Is that going to cause a problem?" John asked.
Camille gently stroked his chest and smiled. She gave him another loving kiss.
"It'll be our secret." Camille said. "Nobody will know."
John was pretty sure that Nobody would know.
