Cameron's Future Timeline:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Cameron headed away from the Skynet base. She made sure she wasn't followed or tracked. She also remained on the alert for any HK drones sent out to look for her. She communicated with Future John and Duplicate Cameron about what she'd found and the news that this wasn't what she was looking for. It was still a substantial find.
She went over her plan with Duplicate Cameron and the surprises she'd left behind. They decided to launch the faux attack and destroy as much of Skynet's reserves as they could. It would be a turkey shoot at the other two locations. There were plenty of antiaircraft missiles ready to go. The location were she was at now should lead to a mass destruction of HK drones on their own with her handiwork.
The only threat would be the Terminators that came out to fight. There was a solution for that. It was covered too. The Resistance drones would be ready to strike them. Resistance losses should be low and Skynet's losses should be high.
Cameron contacted Bob and Rob on a separate secure line. They were to stand down and secure the 'package' for now. Cameron previously alerted them to be ready to move. She again reminded them that no one was to know what they were doing and what they possessed.
"Affirmative…." Bob responded back.
Cameron was confidant with the surveillance equipment that she'd installed what she would soon find. Skynet would lead her to itself.
"I should have our target soon enough." Cameron said.
"Affirmative…." Bob responded back.
Cameron smiled. It never got old.
Cameron went over the nature of her plan with Duplicate Cameron. Skynet was in for a shock. It should be a Future Shock for sure.
'I'm going to find where this Skynet hides at.' Cameron thought.
Future John communicated back that the Resistance drones were on the way. The attack was 'a go' on her timetable.
Cameron checked her plasma rifle.
"Game On." Cameron said.
Cameron left something inside the facility. It would be a 'surprise' for Skynet's Metal. They would never know what happened.

Resistance Base - Current Timeline:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Cammy was pleased that Savannah 'reactivated' her and reclaimed her chassis from 'Cameron'. She knew that Savannah loved her even if she loved others. Savannah possessed plenty of love to have and share.
"You're beautiful, Savannah." Cammy said. "Thank you."
Savannah didn't see this as anything other than it should be. Cammy was Cammy and that wasn't about to change. If they couldn't get Cameron back, then she would see about what else could be done. That would now be her decision. She was in charge of Cameron's spare chip. She was the 'Decider'.
She also knew she was at a disadvantage as far as it went with the Metal girls. Their beauty was eternal, hers wasn't. Continued child birth wasn't going to help her looks any either.
"I may be beautiful to you now but I won't always be." Savannah said. "I will grow old if I survive. Beauty is transitory, Cammy. I'm going to have more children as well. It all takes a toll."
Savannah hoped her true beauty existed within her as the person she was. That was the true beauty of anyone human or Metal. The inner beauty seemed to be the last beauty anyone ever found. It was all visual, at least at first.
Cammy knew that Savannah's true mate would age with her.
"Allison will age as well." Cammy said. "All of them."
Savannah knew that Cammy could look older or look younger. She often toyed with the desire to have Cammy regress her age to that of a young teenager. That would make her look more like Young Allison. She'd mentioned that once a long time ago. Cammy was alarmed with the prospect of a reduced breast size and her hand glitched. She noticed and quickly told Cammy she was joking. They both knew she wasn't.
"But you won't." Savannah said. "You and Cameron will always look beautiful and Tight. You will look as beautiful as you are right now forever."
Cammy knew forever was a long time. She could make herself age. She doubted Savannah would allow that. If anything Savannah wanted her to look like a tween. She'd even mentioned it once. Maybe she should reward Savannah with that appearance. She could always stuff her bra when she went out. She would just state the obvious for now.
"I will until I'm terminated or my power cell runs out." Cammy said.
Savannah wanted to remind Cammy of her 'options'.
"I believe you can always change your age appearance." Savannah said. "That's to appear older or younger."
Cammy knew she could allow for age progression to occur but Cameron forbid that feature in all female Terminators. The age regression was another story. She decided if they found Cameron and she did any age regression for Savannah, she would match it and knock off an additional year.
"We can age too if we want, either older or even younger." Cammy said. "I'm open to the latter now, even if I wasn't before."
Savannah felt a surge of excitement at the thought. She wondered how young of an appearance could be achieved. The Coltan chassis would still be the same height and size. She calculated a female Terminator could resequence to the appearance of a tall twelve year old girl. She was curious how the teenage female 'attributes' would be reabsorbed into the chassis or sheath. Savannah needed to clear her head. She didn't want to dwell on this right now.
"I want you to understand how special you are, Cammy." Savannah said. "You will exist as pretty as you are, long after I'm dead."
Cammy felt a glitch impulse with that statement. She didn't want Savannah to die even if she knew it was inevitable. There were ways 'around it'. Evidently Cameron may have used them already, more than once.
"No, I'll do like Cameron thinks she has in 1999. I'll return to my point of activation and replace that version of myself, with myself and reset my chip." Cammy said. "I'll relive my life over again with you and we will learn and share together again."
Savannah was aware that Cameron thought she'd done that. It didn't surprise her to hear Cammy say it as well. Cammy was 'Cameron'.
"Cammy, you know I love you because you ARE 'Cameron', a version of her anyway, MY version." Savannah said. "I'll have more sexual partners in the future and John will be one of them. You know this. I'm not replacing you with any of them. It is just what my future holds."
Cammy was 'Cameron'. She knew what a Bitch Cameron really was. There would be no 'competition' with Cameron around.
"When you share John's bed, Cameron Prime will be there." Cammy said. "She will take you from me. We both know this."
Savannah wanted to give Cammy a few options and point out a few grim realities.
"Cammy, if that's really your fear we can do several things then. If I'm involved with Cameron at that point and with John, since you are 'Cameron', a copy of her, you can merge your program into hers at that time. You would become one again with her." Savannah said. "Or you can remain independent. By the time that happens, Cammy, I will probably have three more children. I doubt my body will still look as nice as it does now."
Savannah touched her belly. Things didn't quite feel like they used to. She was very young when she got pregnant the first time but not really in the context of humans. Things all used to happen even earlier in the 'old days' because most people were dead by the time they were thirty-five. Savannah touched and jiggled breasts. They felt different too.
"In fact I'm sure it won't." Savannah said. "Some things have already changed. I don't think they are ever going back to how they were either."
Cammy knew there were many factors in play with humans. They were in play with machines too. There was no guarantee of how anything would play out five years from now. Things could be different in five seconds if they were attacked. The extra children seemed like a lot for Savannah's body to deal with.
"You're older than John now yourself at the time when he 'replaced' Cameron with Riley." Cammy said. "Why will there be three more babies?"
Savannah could see Cammy was worried for her. It wasn't uncommon for some females in third world or some religious dominated countries to have a dozen children. They may not all live but they still conceived, carried and delivered them.
"There will be one for Vanna in this timeline. I want her to have her own child the same way I provided them to her other selves - MY other selves, in the other timelines." Savannah said. "I'm also having one for Cameron and John as their child."
Cammy did the math. That wasn't three.
"That is only two babies." Cammy said.
Savannah wondered why Cammy was so 'blind' sometimes. It should be obvious as to what the future should hold for them.
"Cammy, the last one is for US. It will be OUR child to raise together and love. It will be for you and me." Savannah said. "I want my own child as well. It will be OURS."
Cammy moved over and hugged Savannah. Maybe Savannah really did love her and care about her. She scanned her all the time and she always told the truth. They could have their own family together. She was very elated to hear that.
"You would do that for me? You would do that for us?" Cammy asked. "You are the 'Chosen One' Savannah. You really are."
Savannah could see Cammy was very happy now. She wanted to point out there was a downside to having a baby of their own.
"You don't expect me to change all those diapers by myself do you?" Savannah joked. "Or get up in the middle of the night?"
Cammy didn't see that as a problem. She didn't sleep. It would give her something to do while Savannah slept. Savannah could do the things she couldn't do, such as nurse the baby.
"No, I'll do everything." Cammy said. "You'll only need to feed her."
That caught Savannah off guard. There was no way to know if the baby would be a boy or a girl, three babies from now.
"Her?" Savannah asked. "How do you know?"
Cammy tilted her head slightly. She didn't know. Maybe she wanted it to be like Savannah. It just seemed logical to her.
"I don't know." Cammy said. "I just do."
Savannah thought of the earlier discussion about Cameron and maybe Cammy going back in time to live their life over. It was a possibility.
"Maybe we've already done this in several prior lifetimes." Savannah said. "I'll let you name her then, you probably know that too."
Cammy already did have a name in her head. She wasn't sure where it came from either.
"I want to name my baby, OUR baby, Milena." Cammy said.
Savannah's mouth dropped open a little. She'd heard that name before. It wasn't from Cammy either.
"Cameron told me the same thing." Savannah said. "Milena – Jo."
Cammy knew she would do whatever it took to be with Savannah forever. It was most likely from recombined programs with Cameron.
"We may be one program at that point." Cammy said. "I don't know. I'll do whatever I have to, to remain with you, Savannah. No sacrifice will be too great to make for you."
Savannah felt a little uncomfortable. It had been awhile since the pressure was relieved.
"I have something you could do for me now." Savannah said.
Cammy noticed the two wet spots on the front of Savannah's shirt.
"I predict one pressure reduction procedure coming up." Cammy said.
Savannah wanted that and more. She wanted everything.
"Thank you." Savannah said. "I want to love you as we do this."
Cammy was pleased that Savannah wanted her. There was one thing that always bothered her. She thought of it as she looked at Savannah's bulging breasts. She knew that large breasts were important to many humans.
"Savannah, I will always love you." Cammy said. "When I was in Ginger's chassis, did you like her breasts better than mine?"
Savannah knew that was an issue that Cameron struggled with too. She always felt that was one of the reasons John chose Riley over her. From her personal sexual experience she knew every female was different. Things were bigger or smaller in different areas. The pigmentation was varied. Some things were not symmetrical. For a Terminator it didn't matter. Their sheath was changeable. They were their program.
"You keep asking me that. I can only answer the same way. Ginger's breasts were rather plump and those super pink nipples were nice but I love you just the way you are, Cammy." Savannah said. "I'll love you however you are or whatever you look like. I know your program is really you."
A strange thought flooded over Cammy. She wondered if she could switch chips with Bob or one of the other male Terminators for Savannah. It would still be her but in a male chassis. She could take Savannah's virginity herself. Maybe that was too much to 'ask' for. It would most likely go to John. That was what Cameron wanted anyway. She would save that thought for another time. She still wanted to make sure her current sheath was good enough for Savannah. She could 'improve' it to better suit Savannah's desires. She felt it would make her 'better' than Cameron, at least better for Savannah.
"I've gone through Ginger's genetic code and have identified and selected the genes that gave her the plumpness and the super pinkness." Cammy said. "I can Resequence and alter my genetic code to have either or both of those attributes. That's how I would regenerate in the future as well. I would be different from Cameron that way. I would be unique."
Savannah thought that was interesting but she loved Cammy just the way she was. Everyone needed to be accepted for how they were. That especially applied to humans. She remembered that Young Jesse was a little worried their bodies were so different in their female attributes. She needed to reassure Young Jesse she thought she was beautiful. She did. She liked that Young Jesse was different from her. She thought maybe Cammy wanted to be different too.
"Do you want an identity separate from Cameron? Your chassis could no longer double for hers." Savannah said. "Cammy, I love you just the way you are now. You don't need to change anything for me. That would bother me actually. I never want to make anyone feel they're 'not good enough'."
Cammy wanted to make sure Savannah loved her.
"Thank you, Savannah." Cammy said. "If I did it for myself, would you still want me?"
Savannah didn't want Cammy to get hung up on this issue. They'd talked about it three different ways. It all came back to the same thing. Cammy was testing her.
"Cammy, I'll love you however you are in whatever chassis or sheath you have." Savannah said. "I know you are your program, even if it is a different chassis."
Cammy wanted to ask about the male chassis but didn't. She'd still like to be the one to claim Savannah's virginity. She wanted to be Savannah's first experience with a 'male'. She could do that. She decided to stay with tweaking her current chassis.
"I may do the super pink pigmentation change." Cammy said. "I don't know yet."
Savannah was intrigued still but didn't think it was necessary. It could be interesting to have Cammy the same but different from Cameron and any Allison with different pigmentation.
"You do whatever you want. It is your sheath and you have the right to make it how you want for yourself." Savannah said. "Will that change the pigment 'elsewhere' as well?"
Cammy smiled. She knew what Savannah desired.
"I have that genetic code also." Cammy said. "I hoped you would ask."
Savannah knew in this timeline that she was the pinkest of the females in the Resistance, well, Vanna and Hanna too.
"That would make you 'pinker' than me in both areas." Savannah said.
Cammy thought a little 'review' was in order. She needed to 'assist' Savannah. She stripped Savannah's top off.
"It's something to think about." Cammy said "Let's get that pressure down a little….''
All the 'talk' aroused Savannah. It was exciting to imagine changing 'things'.
"I love you, Cammy." Savannah said.
Cammy picked Savannah's topless figure up and carried her to the bed….
"I love you too, Savannah." Cammy said.
Savannah was very content right now. There was also an underlying issue related to why they were here in the first place. She needed to make Cammy understand her position. She didn't want Cammy deactivated, she wanted Cameron back too.
"Cammy, if Cameron doesn't come back I'm going into the future and bring her back myself. I want to make sure you understand that." Savannah said. "I'll never let her perish."
Cammy didn't doubt that for a moment. Savannah loved Cameron more than anything and it wasn't anything sexual, at least not yet.
"I already know that, Savannah." Cammy said. "You're as special as Cameron Prime is. You're both the 'Chosen Ones'."
Savannah knew she wouldn't come back without Cameron, even if she needed to die herself. She promised Cameron she would never abandon her. Right now it was time to share with Cammy. She never knew when it might be the 'last' time.
"Take me…." Savannah whispered in Cammy's ear as they kissed. "You're the best…."
Tranquility
Everyone would like to live
Life in joy and harmony
Instead some grow cold
They seek out an armory
Most try to avoid strife
To find some contentment
Others may be filled with
Pain, anger and resentment
Everything works smoothly
When it flows with equanimity
Or seclusion with anonymity
It may even turn into a calamity
Don't let the sky turn black
When there can be serenity
There is no need to turn everything
Into some type of obscenity
Cast out the inner demons
Control the simmering hostility
There is still much possibility
When one will embrace tranquility
Nobody
