"My name is Sarah Connor"
Her blue eyes turned to Dani
"When I was about her age, a terminator was sent to kill me. To stop the birth of my son John. Leader of The Resistance"
"Which Resistance?"
"The Human Resistance. Against Skynet. The A.I. that's trying to wipe us all out"
"I've never heard of it"
"Good…John and I changed that, we changed the future. Saved three billion lives…"
"Where's your son now?"
"Safe…After defeating Skynet…we took their technology and used it to enhance our weapons…we were no longer The Human Resistance…We're what you call The Old Guard…Guardians…protectors…"
Dani sat down for a moment
"Wait…but that's just a rumor…my uncle...he used to tell us these crazy stories..."
"and that's how we survive by not existing…humans are to greedy and untrustworthy…to handle what we are"
"And what are you?"
"I'm like you…well the first Augment as well as John…her father"
Grace turned to the young woman, she could see her now and she made her heartbeat skip, her stomach became tight knots as well as her muscles tightening. She felt like a schoolgirl with a crush, back home she had her share of crushes and hookups but this was different way different.
"Sylvia…your one too?" Dani asked
Sylvia…she whispered her name under her breath as if tasting the name on her lips
"No…Sylvia…is something more…special"
"Special?" Dani asked
Sylvia turned her different colored eyes toward Dani but kept to her silence as Sarah stood from her spot, retrieving her sunglasses and not answering her question
"We need to move"
"We…? There's no we…Dani is with me, it's my mission to protect her"
Sarah scoffed
"Oh yeah? How's that working out for you?"
She turned to Dani and Grace
"Clearly…you don't know about this time. How anyone with phones or walking sensor platform, how every intersection, every gas station, 7-Eleven has cameras. No one walks through this world without leaving a digital trail a mile wide"
She turned to Dani
"And my guess is that terminator hunting her can access that data anytime"
Picking up the cooler Sarah turned to Grace
"You two won't last ten hours…"
Sylvia watched as Grace debated with herself before following Sarah out of the hotel room and toward the car.
"I don't understand…why me? Why did they have to take everything from me? I'm a no body…"
Dani was close to tears as Sylvia stood
"Your not a no body Daniella…I see a leader. Strong, Smart, loyal, quick on your feet, a person who takes charge for what's right, you fight for what you believe in, you bring people together…you remind me of my parents…"
Sighing she squeezed her shoulder
"Now…lets get the hell out of here and after all this…we'll come back and give your family a proper burial"
She still didn't get any information from anyone back home about Dani's brother so she kept that bit of information to herself until she was sure, that he would survive.
Dani smiled as tears escaped,
"Thank you…"
Both women left the room, to join Sarah and Grace who were speaking amongst themselves
"Let's get something straight…if you put her in danger or get in my away…I will fuck you up…"
Sarah smiled, nodding
"Right…I drive"
Once in the car, they made their way down the road
"So…that machine…who sent it…"
Grace looked away not answering
"We can't fight it if we don't know what we're up against"
"It's a Rev-9 model…you don't fight it, you run from it…"
"Yeah but who sent it"
"Not who…what…and it wasn't some Skynet thing…in the future that actually happened…it's called Legion"
"Legion?"
"An A.I. built for cyber warfare"
Sarah sighed
"Those assholes never learn…"
"And it attacked"
"Attacked who" Dani asked
"Us…everybody…"
Dani turned to Sarah
"Sarah how did you know we were on that bridge?"
"We have Headquarters in an unknown secretive area protected from any prying eyes, human and technical…two days ago we get a notification, on a Daniella Ramos. Sylvia and I head out toward Mexico and this morning we get a text with your location on that bridge"
"Do you know who sent those texts"
"Carl…"
Sarah looked into the rearview mirror as they both spoke in union
"Texas…"
"But of course, we have problems 1, 2, 3, and 4" Sylvia pointed out
Sarah sighed
Grace turned to her as they locked eyes for a moment.
If she weren't mistaken Dani could almost see the sparks of pent-up attraction between the two. The whole car vibrated with it. She turned to Sarah who gave her a knowing grin. Sylvia cleared her throat
"Two women with no identification, no footprint in this world, one who has her own episode on America's Most Wanted, and the only one with identification is an undocumented Mexican national crossing the US border…"
Sylvia had to look away from the intensity in her bright blue eyes, the attraction was there, hell if it weren't for Dani or her grandmother in the car. They'd probably would have stopped the car, rip each other's clothes off, and fogging up the windows from all the pent up sex.
Her heart began to beat painfully against her chest, her body felt tight and uncomfortable and her sex was throbbing and moist from the thought of both of their naked bodies against each other.
She was beautiful, with short thick blonde hair, that fell over her big blue eyes, she looked like she ate nails for breakfast, a tall drink of water, calculating her height six feet with some inches added to it.
From the corner of her eye she could see Dani eying them with a grin, Sylvia jabbed her side, looking out the window as Dani flinched, trying not to laugh
"I know someone who can get us across"
Grace turned her gaze toward Dani
"Someone you trust?"
Dani nodded
"Yes…my uncle"
"We need to ditch the car…get off the grid"
Sarah parked the car under a bridge while Grace scouted as Sylvia grabbed her precious black bag that held her labrys an ancient axe that had inscriptions of her ancestors carved into them and her mother's twin labrys.
"You know I think I was almost choking in the car from all that sexual tension…you like her"
Sylvia turned away
"Is it that obvious?"
"Oh yeah…the way she looks at you too…"
"You think…"
"Grace likes you…a lot…when this is over…I'm looking forward to dress you up for your date…"
Sylvia shook her head rolled her eyes
"And listening to every dirty little detail"
"Get your head out of the gutter"
Though Sylvia felt warm inside, she never had anyone tease her about such things, yeah there was the base with those who believed in the cause, those who believed that the government depending too much on technology would be mankind's doom.
But all she knew was the face of her family and if she learned anything about love or sex it was all on the internet or books.
Dani laughed
"Hey…I'm not the one who is undressing and getting undressed by tall blue eyes over there"
They turned back to see Grace and Sarah talking, Grace's eyes turning to hers, but she looked away before she could drown in those blue pools.
"I've never been on a date…"
Dani turned to her as she confessed
"Never…?"
"We don't exist remember? I was born with books in one hand and weapons in another. Don't get me wrong I love my life, it's just…when I look at my parents…or my uncles…I wish I had what they had, Grace has been my first crush…if that's what you call what I'm feeling"
Dani rubbed her arm
"Love…I remember my parents…before my mother died…they were inseparable, best friends…"
Dani turned back to the other two women
"Let's survive this first…hey ladies!"
They finally got into a small town where the train passed
"This is off the grid alright…just wish it wasn't so crowded…"
"Well I wish you three weren't so white…"
Sylvia snorted, chuckling at Dani's remark as they walked through the town, her hand accidently grazed Grace's causing her to zap her, electric sensations ran up her arm and through her entire body Sylvia had to look up at her because she was so fucking tall
"Sorry…"
Grace gave her a small smile as she looked away, her heart skipping a beat or two. It wasn't until she felt, Grace's long fingers skimming down her arm taking her hand even if it was for a second.
Sylvia's heart was beating so hard, as she felt the heat from her hand and the hard skin from years of fighting.
They un-willingly separated again as they approached a building. People were selling food, while others waited for the train, Dani went over get some food as Sylvia placed her bag down
"I'll be back"
She walked off as Grace put her bags down,
Finding the restrooms Sylvia walked in, luckily no one was in there, going into one of the stalls she relieved herself. Her panties were soaked, sighing she finished and left the stall, turning on the water she washed her hands when the door opened and walked in Grace.
she turned to her but before anything was said, Grace was on her.
Her kiss was gentle at first, but it soon turned desperate as if as soon as she got a taste of her lips, she was met with an unquenchable thirst. Sylvia gripped her wrists releasing a soft moan as Grace pushed her up against the wall, sucking her bottom lip between her teeth, Grace bit her softly, enjoying the soft whimper she got out of her, allowing her to slide her tongue in her mouth, where she caressed the wet muscle.
Their tongues battled for dominance, when she heard the loud roar of the train heading their way, regretfully she pulled away, but not before nibbling her lip again, leaving her lips moistened.
Both were breathing hard, it was so hot, Grace thought she was overheating, Sylvia shook her head and silently pushed herself away from her, leaving her with want in the bathroom. Her lips were throbbing as she licked them as if trying to keep the sweet taste of her.
Clearing her throat she went back to where she left her grandmother and Dani.
Grace ran her fingers through her thick blonde locks, sighing, her heart was beating out of her chest,
"Fuck…"
She was in deep shit, leaving the bathroom she paused as she looked out seeing the train
"You know…for so many years of looking over my shoulder, jumping at every shadow, afraid of anything, anyone wanting to take my John away from me.
I get a sense of peace, knowing that we in fact did change the future, because she's here and now….we just clean up the mess, make sure that no one else takes over from where Skynet left off.
Your future is different, why and how I don't know. But that girl is everything to me and my family…she's not like other girls…she didn't grow up with that freedom because of not just what but who she was. Her birthright. But you did, maybe into the same freedom without Terminators breathing down your neck, ready to take you out at any second but you had that luxury…she hasn't…So you think before you decide to pursue her"
Sarah warned as Grace turned her blue gaze toward her as she went to join Dani and Sylvia as the train slowed down, enough for them to get up and on the train.
"Grace…tell me what happened when this whole world falls apart"
Grace looked away for a moment before she began
"Nothing happens…there's no warning. Day one, everything stops, no phones. No power. Cities go dark. They told us we needed to leave just until things got back to normal"
Sylvia held onto her grandmother's hand squeezing it as she listened
"But normal was never coming back. Day 2 they launched nukes, they thought they could contain Legion with tactical EMP strikes and by day three, the whole world was at war. Millions died and than when the food ran out. Billions"
Grace looked away
"Some guy killed my dad over a can of peaches…"
Dani immediately put her hand on her knee in comfort
"When we thought the worse was over than Legion started to hunt survivors…I was on the run…being chased by survivors for the food scraps I had in my bag…but I was saved"
"Let me guess…Dani gives birth to the one man that can stop it…"
"What?"
Sarah turned to her
"Future wants you dead for the same reason they wanted me dead"
"No…"
They all turned to Sylvia
"You are John…Of course…"
She turned to Dani
"You outsmarted them Dani…you found out what they were planning…and you beat them to the punch"
"Lvi…"
Sylvia turned to Sarah before looking at Grace
"Dani is The Leader of the Resistance…in your timeline…that's why you've never heard of Skynet or John Connor…"
She turned back to Sarah
"It makes perfect sense…."
"What does…?" Sarah was still confused
"A rift in time…remember Grams…Parts in the world have what you call rifts or portals…it's how time travel is possible…even different dimensions…a group of campers who went to Papua New Guinea said they found an unexplored cave, when they went to explore; it was around 8:30am on September 4th 2003. They claimed that they felt a coldness they never felt before as well as a weight. It was so overwhelming that they only stood there for no more than five minutes. By the time they came out it was 10:30 at night on the same day but 2006. They lost two years, by the time they went home, they had a missing persons case on all of them"
Sylvia looked up a with a grin
"Dani you genius! Of course….you figured that out when you found the plans that Legion wanted you dead, but instead of going back in time to kill you…they wanted to go back in time to kill your mother….just like they did with Grams…but you were ten steps ahead. You had someone go back in time get your mother and send her through a rift…to our timeline…you knew that you'd be safe in this timeline…it would take Legion some time to pinpoint your location again"
"I"ll be damned"
Sylvia turned to Grace
"She told you that you needed to find someone didn't she?"
"yeah…she tattooed coordinates…" Grace said lifting her tee, Sylvia scooted over, gently pressing her fingertips on the softness of her skin, just below the numbers, she felt the jolt go through Grace as she rose her gaze. Grace's eyes gave off a glow as her jaw was tightly clenched. She had that look that had Sylvia's body go up in flames.
Clearing her throat she looked at the numbers and smiled, ignoring the feelings that Grace was invoking in her
"It's Carl's location…"
She pulled away and sat back down beside Sarah hoping that the space between them would quench the flames.
"These rifts…is there a possibility I can go back…to my timeline?" Dani asked
They turned to her,
"Maybe…if I'm this Leader…my family could still be alive…right Grace"
"Just your brother…you're second in command"
At that moment Sylvia felt numb, her heart sunk to her toes and she felt a stinging behind her eyes and an internal pain that felt like knives pierce her heart to the point where she almost lifted her hand over her heart.
She had gotten her hopes up turning to them to make sure they didn't notice anything she forced herself to go neutral as she answered
"Yes…we actually advanced our equipment to send you back…to the right time and location, where you are leading. From my research you would already fall into your role as if you never left and all this would be a distant memory"
"But if he's dead in this timeline…and my mother…"
"One of the many mysteries of time and time travel…" Sarah said, patting Sylvia's knee, Sylvia grinned
Dani smiled her heart singing, Diego was alive and she would see him again,
"And you?"
"I'm your body guard…I keep you safe and alive…until this mission is complete I have my second hand man watching over you"
She finally confirmed it, Sylvia felt herself flinch, tears blurred her eyes, she blinked them away but one stubbornly escaped running down her cheek. She knew in her heart that it wasn't in her cards to love or be loved but she saw a glimmer of hope and jumped at it, hoping that maybe, just maybe she could have what her parents had, what Joe and Nicky had, what her grandmother had with her grandfather.
Sighing she looked up at the stars, feeling the wind in her hair as the train continued on to their destination.
