Chapter 1206


Sunrise Surprise


Steve and Tom watched everything go down from the drone footage.

"I think one group is going to terminate the other group." Steve said.

Tom could see the situation looked tense.

"I think the new group is going to get taken down." Tom said.

From the drone image, they could see gunfire break out. They could hear it a fraction of a second later.


Seconds ago:

Jasper was inside of the building. He watched the two men outside from the window in the office area. He could see they were distracted. They looked over towards where the other two members of his team were at.

He decided to make his move. He'd just opened the door and looked outside when the gunfire broke out.


Moments ago:

The two men outside of the building suspected there was someone watching them from the property next door. One man tried to pass it off as being a bird or something. The other man disagreed. He raised his pistol to shoot in the direction he saw movement.

"There's someone there."

He fired his gun three times at the location he'd spotted the movement.

"Behind us…."

The other man turned to shoot at a target that emerged from the building.


Moments ago:

The two men behind the wall saw one of the newcomers raise his pistol to shoot at them.

"Open up." The first man said.

Before either man could shoot, bullets begin to impact around them.

The second man ducked down with his rifle over the wall and open fire.

The first man ducked down as well. He saw Jasper emerge from the building right before the shooting started. He watched the other man open up blindly on the two newcomers.

"Jasper's outside too." The first man said. "Be careful where you aim."


Jasper fired at the man who turned to face him.

He ducked back inside the building as bullets began to land around him. He wasn't sure if they were from the newcomer or from his own team. He was pretty sure it was someone from his team firing wild.

There was a pause in the gunfire. He poked his head carefully around the corner. Both of the newcomers were down.

He looked in the direction where his team was. He only spotted one of them.

Jasper was a little weary of the two men who were down. His battlefield instinct was to shoot them again to make sure they were out of the game. He wanted to know who they were and where they came from.

He spotted a second rifle come up over the side of the fence with no one behind it. He was sure one of the two men was about to shoot blindly over the wall after he'd changed his magazine. Everything that happened so far since the shooting started was less than ten seconds.

"Hold your fire." Jasper said sternly.

The first man was able to see what happened. He looked at the second man.

"It's Jasper." The first man said. "Don't light him up."

The second man lifted his head above the wall to look.

"I think I got one of the hostiles." The second man said.

Jasper moved over to check the two men.

"You almost got me too." Jasper said angrily. "Get over here and help me."

The two men scrambled over the wall. They went over to the two fallen men. They looked for any intel they could gather.

"What's inside the building?" The first man asked.

Jasper glanced back over his shoulder.

"The building's empty." Jasper said. "Check the vehicle."

The second man could see the two individuals they'd shot were being checked. He looked over at the car. It appeared to be empty. He decided to check it out.

"I got it." The second man said.

The second man approached the vehicle. He held his rifle at the ready in case there were any surprises in the rear seat. He didn't see anyone. He reached inside the door and hit the trunk release. He approached the trunk with his rifle ready. It was empty.

Jasper and the first man searched the two downed men. They were both dead. All they came up with was one phone between the two of them. It was wrecked. There was a bullet hole squarely through the middle of it.

"What do you have?" Jasper asked.

The second man returned to look in the interior of the vehicle.

"So far I have nothing." The second man said.

Jasper was a little weary of the vehicle.

"Do you see any explosives?" Jasper asked.

The second man became a little more fearful.

"I didn't see any." The second man said.

The first man understood Jasper's drift.

"Just because you don't see them doesn't mean there aren't any." The first man said.

Jasper figured he'd better check it himself. He grabbed the ankle of one of the dead men and started to move him.

"Grab the other stiff and will drag them back to their vehicle." Jasper said.


Steve and Tom watched the brief exchange of gunfire. It only lasted a few seconds. They were surprised none of the first group was injured or terminated. They'd watched one of the men fire blindly and almost hit one of his own teammate.

"I hoped one of the new arrivals would make it back to the vehicle and make a break for it." Tom said. "It would have given us another target."

Steve wasn't sure what would happen.

"We need to let it play out a little further." Steve said.

They checked the drone images around them for any additional targets. Nothing had been identified. They decided to move back to their previous position. They could take the original enemy vehicle under direct observation. They were sure it would be their target once it left.


Jasper checked the vehicle himself to make sure there was no explosive device attached to it. The other two men put the bodies into the trunk and closed it. He briefly filled them in on what was inside the building.

"What happens now?" The first man asked.

The second man wanted to leave. He wanted to kill the dog several buildings down before he left.

"We need to clear out after all the gun fire." The second man said. "I have one more score to settle."

The first man looked at the second man with disgust.

"Let it go." The first man said. "I do agree we need to leave."

Jasper felt there were a lot of unanswered questions.

"The two stiffs weren't part of this operation." Jasper said. "We don't know where the people are who were in the building."

The second man wanted to point out they'd almost all been killed twice for nothing.

"Since there's nothing here, let's go." The second man said.

The first man thought everything was self evident.

"I think it's a pretty good guess everyone was killed in the explosion of the other building." The first man said. "Just like all of our people were killed."

Jasper thought everything over.

"Let's go back." Jasper said.

The second man was relieved to hear they would leave.

"I'm all for that." The second man said. "Let's head for the apartment."

The first man hoped they would stop by the homeless camp on the way back. He didn't care who he was able to get a hold of, as long as it was a female. It didn't matter in the dark.

"I'd like to score on the way home." The first man said.

Jasper looked at both men with a little disgust.

"We're going back to the old base." Jasper said. "There are too many unknowns for me. I think everything is compromised."


Steve and Tom watched the three men deal with the two bodies.

"I think they're going to leave with the vehicle." Tom said.

Steve wasn't so sure.

"They might park it in the building." Steve said.

They received a warning from the drone on recon.

"It looks like we have a new contact." Tom said.

Steve looked at the image.

"It's the same type of car as the one the two newcomers arrived in." Steve said. "I'm sure they're connected."

Tom didn't think it would matter too much who they were.

"It looks like the reinforcements are late." Tom said.

Things played out much as Steve suspected they would. The three men moved the newcomer's car into the building.

They were just about to pull down the roll up door when the new vehicle turned off of the main street between the two buildings and headed straight for the rear building.

"This is getting better by the minute." Tom said.


The three men were caught by surprise when the vehicle roared around the corner and headed straight for them. They didn't know who they were but they figured they were the enemy.

"Open up on them." Jasper said.

The two men brought their rifles up and started to fire.

There was return fire from the vehicle as it continued towards them at high speed.

The second man was hit and went down.

The first man continued to fire at the vehicle. It didn't slow and continued towards them.

Jasper could see they weren't going to stop. Maybe they couldn't. The gunman hung half out the window on the passenger side. He must have been hit. He still held his weapon but couldn't aim it.

The vehicle hit the first man as he tried to scramble out of the way. He rolled up on the hood as the vehicle impacted the other vehicle they'd just parked in the building. The first vehicle was pushed into the rear wall by the second vehicle before everything stopped.

Jasper quickly checked the second man to see if he was still alive. He wasn't. He carefully looked around the side of the roll up door into the building. There was smoke billowing from the second vehicle. He didn't see any movement. He did see flames a few seconds later. He figured it wouldn't be long until one gas tank and then the other on the two vehicles exploded.

He quickly went back and dragged the second man into the building. The flames were quite extensive at this point. He took one look around and went back over the fence. He passed through the property next door and went over the fence into the alley where his vehicle was parked. He took one look around in all directions before he got in the vehicle. He started it and drove away. He sped down the alley and made a right hand turn. He could hear what sounded like a muffled explosion as he turned left onto the main street. He wasn't sure what was what but he was sure that everything was compromised.

Jasper headed back to back to what was their old base previously.


Steve and Tom let the drone track Jasper. They followed on a parallel route.

"I think we should take the vehicle down as soon as we can determine what it's location is." Steve said.

Tom agreed.

"If he doesn't use his phone, I think it's the best option." Tom said. "The less anyone where he's going knows anything, the better for us it will be."

The drone on recon was able to identify what his probable destination was. It was a location the Resistance team had been to previously.

CamNet used traffic management to slow the vehicle down.

Steve and Tom were able to get ahead of it on the parallel route. They turned onto the street in front of the approaching vehicle. They followed the speed limit and soon Jasper overtook them. They were able to match his speed as he approached.

Tom's window was down. His right arm rested on the windowsill. Jasper looked over at him as they both slowed to stop at a red light. He pushed the barrel of his silenced Beretta underneath his right arm and fired once. The bullet struck Jasper in the left eye. He exited the vehicle quickly as Jasper's car started to slowly roll through the red light. He opened the door and pushed Jasper to the passenger side. He pulled Jasper's car onto a side street. He made a quick search of Jasper and the car. He took Jasper's phone. It was the only thing that might have any intel on it. He loaded Jasper's body into the trunk and left the car parked against the curb.

Steve looked over at Tom when he got back in their vehicle.

"I guess it takes care of that." Steve said. "It looks like we have a new target to deal with."

Tom received some new information. He was a little surprised by the change of events.

"CamNet is going to turn the operation over to John Henry." Tom said. "It looks like this is going to be an official Resistance operation going forward. Were not supposed to discuss what happened previously."

Steve looked over towards the eastern sky.

"It will be sunrise in about an hour." Steve said.

Steve figured since they knew their destination they might as well get started.


Savannah was startled awake by the sound of her alarm.

She was still very tired. It seemed she was always tired anymore. There was always so much to do and not enough time to do it. Trying to keep up with the Metal girls was a challenge whether it was in the field or in the bed. They didn't need to sleep, she did.

She pulled the pillow out from under her head and placed it on top of her head to muffle the sound of her alarm. It didn't work.

Who was she fooling? She needed to get herself in gear.

Savannah got up and turned the alarm off. She came back and made her bed. If it was made, she was less likely to climb back inside of it. It was too much hassle to remake it.

Maybe a shower would get her started. She could take a hot one to relax or a cold one to wake up. It depended if she wanted hard nipples or not. She decided on a hot shower. She started the water and waited for it to warm up.

She looked at her naked figure in the mirror. She thought she looked pretty good from the front. Most of her bruises were gone but she noticed a new one from yesterday. She turned sideways and looked at her belly. It was still several months before she would see a change there. She figured it would be sooner this time, since it was sooner the last time. All the stretching took its toll. Everything was loosened up. She was worried about the stretching in another spot as well. She would ask Cam later if there was now a noticeable difference between Vanna and her in that area. Cam was able to be with them at the same time. She didn't think Cammy would tell her the truth because she wouldn't want her to feel bad about it. She was sure there would be a difference of some type after a third baby. She would need to have at least two additional ones too, one for Cameron and John and one for John and her. She didn't think she wanted to be a mother for herself just yet.

She smiled knowing she'd been with Vanna last night. It was actually early this morning. She carried Vanna's baby inside her. She'd been through a lot since Cameron impregnated her. She really thought they would have gone into the past by now but they hadn't. It would still take nine months wherever she was at. She didn't think she would be in combat in the past. It would also give her a little break from the constant 'go'. It would be nice to get away from it all for a few months. It would give her body a chance to heal up and all her cuts, scrapes and bruises to vanish.

Savannah entered the shower. The warm water cascaded over her. She let it warm her up. She washed up and was about to turn the water off.

She heard her room door close. She quickly turned off the hot water and let the cold water shower her breasts. It was quite a jolt. She was awake now for sure. She felt her nipples stiffen and protrude a little. She turned off the cold water and stepped out of the shower. She figured pokies would help her 'advertise' to whoever it was. It made her smile, she really didn't care who it was. All of the girls were beautiful. She loved all of them and they all loved her.

She thought at this early hour it would be Cammy.

It wasn't.

She let the towel slip down off her breasts to fully expose them. She might as well make the message clear. Every trip to 'paradise' was wonderful, even if some were better or more intense than others. A ticket to ride took one to the destination. The route didn't really matter.


Sarah was awake. She was lying in bed. She'd 'bumped' into Kyle again and 'accidentally' woke him up in the night. They'd managed to get another love making session in. It was quite an increase for both of them. She hoped the trend continued. Maybe she wouldn't need to 'work on herself' as much. She always fantasized about one of the other girls when she did it. She really would like to have a female lover again sometimes, just for herself. She was sure Kyle would understand.

She looked at the time. It was thirty minutes to sunrise.

She got up and put her bathrobe on after she finished up in the bathroom with everything.

It was twenty five minutes until sunrise.

She went to the balcony door and looked out. The horizon was aglow. The sunrise was on its way. She decided to wake Kyle and get him ready.

She realized there was a food cart in the corner and there was hot coffee and juice on it. It was a nice touch. She never heard it delivered either. She saw there was one cup of coffee poured. She tried a sip. It was just the way she liked it. Jim was really on the ball and seemed to have the timing down perfect. He was scheduled to bring the food in at ten minutes before sunrise so they could eat as the sun rose above the ocean.

It was twenty minutes until sunrise.

She sipped her coffee and woke Kyle. She didn't want to wait too long and put him in a bind for time.

"You have ten minutes to get ready." Sarah said.

Kyle noticed Sarah's bathrobe hung open. He could see everything. It made him want more….

"Do we have time for a quickie?" Kyle asked.

Sarah was always ready to give it a go. Time was a little short. She knew how to get Kyle 'there' quickly, even if she didn't make it.

"I know just the position to make it happen." Sarah said. "It seems to work every time."

Sarah set her coffee down and slipped her robe off. She jiggled her breasts a couple of times and pushed them up and together. It was something Kyle liked to see.

She smiled when Kyle folded the sheet down, he was 'ready'.

So was she….


Derek thought he heard a noise. His combat senses kicked in. He quickly remembered where he was and Riley was in bed next to him. They'd been with each other four times in the night. It hadn't happened in years.

He looked at the time. It would be sunrise soon. He got up to look at the sky to see how close to sunrise it was. He remembered not being able to see a sunrise for many years after Judgment Day.

He almost bumped into something. It was a food cart. He did hear something.

He saw there was hot coffee and juice on it. Now that was service. He checked the time again. Sunrise was in twenty minutes and the food would be here in ten minutes.

He thought he should get Riley up.

He went back to the bedroom.

Riley was up on one elbow.

"How soon until we need to get up?" Riley asked.

Derek previously checked the time.

"We have ten minutes until the food arrives." Derek said.

Riley brushed the sheet off and got up on her knees. She looked back over her shoulder.

She wanted to please Derek and let him knock one off to get his day started. She knew they were short on time so she didn't think she would make it herself. It was OK. It would still be pleasurable even without the 'explosion' at the end. She wanted Derek to have a good time.

"You have seven minutes." Riley said. "This is just for you, don't worry about me."

Derek was instantly ready. Opportunities like this didn't come often.

He hoped he could last long enough to get Riley there but doubted it. She said it was just for him. He wanted to be done before the food cart arrived.

Derek got onto bed and moved towards Riley.


Allison awoke.

There was someone next to her. At this point she wasn't sure who it was. It looked like Samantha stood in the corner against the wall. She was most likely in standby.

She gently touched the hair of the person next to her. She smelled it. She smiled. It was Vanna. She was pretty sure they'd been together in the night at some point. It was all coming back to her now. They were.

There was some movement from the crib Precious was in.

Vanna instantly sat up and looked at the crib. She got up quickly and looked inside.

Allison watched as Vanna lovingly touched Precious.

Vanna waited for a short while and then lay back down.

Allison silently reached over and took Vanna's hand. Vanna looked over at her.

"Hello, beautiful." Vanna whispered.

Allison never thought she looked good in the morning.

"Hello, Vanna." Allison whispered.

The two long time lovers kissed. Things started to escalate.

Allison made a move.

Vanna wanted to set the priorities.

"I might have to nurse Precious soon." Vanna whispered.

Allison backed away from where she was headed.

"OK." Allison whispered.

Vanna rolled over on top of Allison.

"We still have some time." Vanna whispered.

The two girls started to kiss again. They began to touch each other.

"Wow!" Allison whispered. "You're really big."

Vanna almost felt uncomfortable.

"There's a lot of pressure." Vanna whispered.

Allison moved her head down.

"I can take some of the pressure away." Allison whispered.

Precious stirred again.

"Sorry." Vanna whispered. "I think Precious needs me."

Allison liked to see Vanna interact with Precious.

"I like to watch you." Allison whispered. "You look so beautiful when you take care of her."

Vanna got up and picked up Precious.

Allison watched them in the dim light that filtered in from the living room. She was sure the room was much darker earlier.


Jesse and Claire were asleep side by side.

The alarm went off. It was the news channel on the clock radio.

Jesse and Claire stirred. They both listened to a few news briefs.

They both wondered if there was ever any 'good news'. It seemed it was always something bad. There was always some violence or a disaster somewhere.

They touched each other and kissed.

They weren't sure who was there with them until they did. In fact neither was sure at first where they were.

Claire touched Jesse's cheek.

"How do you feel?" Claire asked.

Jesse stretched a little.

"I feel rested." Jesse said.

Claire yawned.

"I'm still a little tired." Claire said.

Jesse needed to use the restroom.

"I need to take care of business." Jesse said.

Claire wanted to check on the girls.

"You go first. I need to see Summer and Jan." Claire said.

They both got up and headed in opposite directions.

There was a night light plugged into the wall now. Claire didn't remember it from before.

She looked in Summer's room. Jan was asleep. Summer wasn't in her bed.

Claire went in to look. Summer was reading a book in the bathroom.

"Hello, Mom." Summer said.

Claire didn't like Summer studying so much.

"Hi." Claire said. "Have you been up long?"

Summer tried to downplay it.

"About a half hour is all." Summer said.

Claire looked at the time on the clock on Summer's dresser.

"You will need to get ready in about thirty minutes." Claire said. "Don't forget Jan needs to get ready too. She may need more time."

Summer already planned to take care of it.

"I'll be ready sooner." Summer said. "I'll make sure Jan is dressed and ready."

Claire went back to her room and headed for the bathroom.

Jesse was in the shower.

Claire joined her a minute later after she took care of business.


Summer put down her book.

She went and checked on Jan. She was still asleep.

Summer listened at the pass door to her mother's room.

She quietly pushed the door open and slipped inside.

Summer could hear Jesse and her mother as they talked and laughed in the shower.

She was glad to see her mother look happy again. She'd noticed it whenever she was with a human lover. She saw it with Allison too. They always seemed happier and 'more alive' when they were with a human lover than when they were only with the Metal girls. She wasn't sure why and she didn't think they knew it. It was very subtle. She was inexperienced in any form of a physical relationship but from her observations, it appeared the Metal girls were better for sex and the human ones were better for love and sharing. It was something she could see and 'feel'. She was sure she'd find out soon enough.

It seemed she could 'feel' a lot of things the others couldn't, not even Allison – Young Allison. She seemed 'different' than the other human females. Maybe everyone thought it about themselves. She really didn't know.

She watched Jesse and her mom through the steamy glass of the shower door as they washed each other. They would laugh and linger on certain spots longer than others.

There was a noise from her room. She quickly returned there and was next to her bed when Jan woke up.

"Hi, Jan." Summer said.

"Hi, Summer." Jan said.

Summer tried to be soothing.

"It is time to wake up." Summer said.

Jan looked around. She looked a little sleepy.

Jan did feel sleepy. They'd been up late and the midnight snack didn't help any.

"Can you help me make sure I have everything I need to bring?" Jan asked.

Summer previously took care of everything and double checked it.

"You do." Summer said. "I already packed all our things except our toothbrushes."

Jan was surprised. She wondered how Summer was always so efficient and organized.

"You did everything already?" Jan asked.

Summer shrugged her shoulders and smiled.

"I don't sleep." Summer said.

Jan wasn't sure she heard her correctly. She was a little confused.

"What?" Jan asked.

Summer always slept better when the 'voices' were there at night. They were always comforting and soothing.

"I mean I don't sleep much." Summer said. "It's time to get ready."


John Henry made all the last minute preparations. Everything would be ready for them to go in a little over an hour.

Dan was at the jet now to make sure it was ready. Frank was in the carpool to check over the vehicle they would use to go to the airport.

Cammy entered the Command Center.

"Everyone is up." Cammy said. "I listened from the hall outside their rooms."

John Henry noticed but didn't mention it. He was sure she was checking to see if she could slip in one of the rooms for a 'sunrise surprise'.

"I will leave with them in sixty three minutes." John Henry said. "Sixty two minutes…."

Cammy wanted some additional help to go along.

"Cam or I can go with you." Cammy said.

John Henry was aware Savannah was going to see CamNet today. Cammy would need to take her.

"You have another assignment with Savannah today." John Henry said.

Cammy frowned.

"I'd rather not go there." Cammy said.

It made no sense to John Henry. Savannah was with others all of the time. It didn't seem to be a problem for Cammy during those times.

"Why does it bother you more than what happened last night?" John Henry asked. "What's the real difference?"

Cammy avoided the question. CamNet was another version of 'Cameron'. She figured one Bitch was as bad as the other.

"If everyone is ready early, you can let Savannah off." Cammy said. "I can pick her up afterwards."

John Henry felt it was going to bother Savannah.

"You're going to make Savannah feel bad if you do this." John Henry said. "You need to support her."

Cammy was irritated with John Henry at this point.

"Never mind, I can ask Cam to take her." Cammy said.

John Henry offered another solution. CamNet informed him where Steve and Tom were currently at a short time ago.

"Steve and Tom are available." John Henry said. "They're watching something."

The new information piqued Cammy's interest. Maybe there was some action she could be involved with. It would take her mind off of CamNet.

"What are they watching?" Cammy asked.

The location bothered John Henry.

"There was some suspicious activity detected at one of the locations we conducted an operation before." John Henry said.

Cammy wondered if CamNet manipulated the time of the report. She wondered why they didn't know about it earlier. She thought she should have been a part of it.

"When did it occur?" Cammy asked.

John Henry was surprised to find out about it as well.

"CamNet only informed me a short time ago." John Henry said. "Jim and Cameron are monitoring it from the Control Center on the ship as well."

Cammy started to check some of the screens.

"This looks like more than a random observation." Cammy said.

Cammy turned to leave.

"Where are you going?" John Henry asked.

He already knew but wanted to make sure.

"To get Savannah so we can go and check it out ourselves." Cammy said.

John Henry spotted some possible activity headed for Savannah's room earlier.

"She may be 'busy' right now." John Henry said.

Now Cammy looked really upset.

She turned around and left without a word.


John heard a squeak type noise.

He looked over, Cameron wasn't in bed. He didn't expect her to be. She seldom was. He understood why. If she was in the Control Center, she would come at once when she heard him.

He remembered their final encounter last night. It made him smile, especially the way Cameron did it. Everything seemed the same to him. He couldn't tell the difference between Cameron's sheath and what he believed was 'Sheila's sheath', at least in the way it was done. It felt the same to him. Maybe it was the point she tried to make.

He got up and headed to look out the balcony door. In the dim light he saw 'Cameron'. She moved a food cart and tried to keep it from making noise. It made noise anyway. There was enough light to see she was still in Sheila's sheath. He looked forward to doing everything this next time. He was instantly excited.

John smiled as he moved up behind her. She wore her maid's outfit again. She bent over to pick something up. Everything was right there in his face.

He reached over and touched her exposed smooth bottom. As soon as his hand touched it, she stood up straight. He kept his hand where it was and moved it down and around until he felt a little more.

"Everything was wonderful last night." John said. "I hope it was for you too."

'Cameron' hadn't moved since she'd stood upright. She hadn't said anything either. She seemed very tense.

"It's OK." John said. "I want to do it again."

He moved around in front of 'Cameron'.

"You look beautiful, Cameron." John said.

'Cameron' looked around nervously.

John began to wonder if there was a problem.

A faint smile appeared on her face.

"I do?" 'Cameron' asked.

John thought she looked a little more than uneasy.

"You do." John said. "I always thought Jesse and Sheila were beautiful. You already know that from when you scan me. I know you check."

'Cameron' seemed to look less stressed. The smile was a big one now. It made her look very pretty with her full lips. He anticipated kissing them and where they might end up elsewhere soon.

"Do you want me now?" 'Cameron' asked. "If you really think I'm beautiful, you can have me. I want that. You need to 'ask' me. I want you to ask me. I want to hear the words come from you."

John wanted her more now. She was playing 'hard to get'.

"Yes." John said. "I want to do everything. I want to share everything with you. I want to be with you. I want you to be with me."

'Cameron's' face lit up. It was close enough for her.

"So do I." 'Cameron' said. "I want 'everything'."

John wondered how long she was going to use the Australian accent. She'd only used it a little at first last night.

"Are you going to talk like Sheila too?" John asked. "It's hot anyway."

'Cameron' faced John. She wanted to avoid any confusion.

"I AM Sheila." 'Cameron' said.

John smiled.

"OK – Sheila." John said.

John watched as she quickly slipped out of her maid's outfit. He took in the tight and trim figure. He really wanted to touch her while he could see her.

"You look so HOT." John said as he touched her jewelry.

John ushered her towards the bedroom.

"Pick me up." 'Cameron' said.

'Cameron' stopped at the doorway.

"Do you want me to carry you across the threshold?" John asked.

'Cameron' smiled at him. It was a beautiful smile.

"It's what I've always wanted." 'Cameron' said.

John went to pick her up.

"I'm heavier than I look." 'Cameron' said.

John smiled. Cameron always said the same thing when he carried her.

"I don't have far to go." John said.

John picked her up and carried her through the doorway and laid her naked body on the bed.

Cameron' reached over and turned on the lamp next to the bed.

John was a little surprised. He wanted to 'see' her, now he would really be able to 'see' her.

"That's bright." John said.

'Cameron' looked very serious.

"I want you to see ME." 'Cameron' said. "I want you to know who I am when we do this."

John took in the beauty of 'Cameron's' sheath.

"I do." John said. "Everything about you excites me."

The time he'd met Future Jesse, the conditions were a little less than ideal. He was still very upset about Future Riley's death. He wasn't sure if he would have to kill her or not. He didn't want to if he didn't need to. It always bothered him when anyone from the anti-Metal faction needed to be terminated. Cameron always made sure he heard how they thought about 'Metal lovers' and him specifically.

When Jesse arrived from the alternate future, he was always enticed by her appearance. At the time he knew she was involved with Derek so he tried to downplay everything. He always secretly looked at her whatever he could. There were many cold lonely nights when he thought about her as he relieved his personal tensions.

John climbed in bed next to her. He knew it wasn't Jesse. He didn't really care.

She motioned for him to join her. She wanted it before it got away from her. They could save the foreplay for another time, if there was one.

She moved him over her. There was a starry look to her eyes. She looked like a kitten.

"Make me a woman, John." 'Cameron' said. "I've waited so long for this moment."

John wondered if 'Cameron' would say it again. He could see how excited 'Cameron' was. It made him even more excited. He thought he'd taken care of her 'first time' yesterday in the darkness.

"You really look and act like this is your 'first time'." John said.

'Cameron' reached up with her hands and started to pull John down towards her.

"It is…." 'Cameron' said.

John could feel the excitement radiate off of her.

He lined up to give her what she wanted.

He could tell how excited she was as she waited for him to 'take' her.

She urged him to hurry.

It was quite a sunrise surprise.


Sunrise Surprise

Things are beautiful
When two can harmonize
Feelings can be so strong
They can mesmerize

When one resorts
To vagueness and lies
Things fall apart fast
It will all soon capsize

One may soon seek
The other to criticize
It's a two way street
For both to chastise

It doesn't take too long
Before each slowly dies
They can't hear the cries
Right before their own eyes

Is it really wise
To break all ties
Soon forgotten is the real prize
Two can share a sunrise surprise

Nobody
