Chapter 919
Little Sister
Savannah noticed the Metal girls grew impatient. They wanted action.
Samantha decided to shake things loose. To sit around and wait for 'The Enforcer' to show up didn't sit well with her. She thought that she could make things happen at the Syndicate casino.
"Let me return to the casino and see what I can find out." Samantha said. "How about it, Cameron, we can both go."
Savannah looked at Cameron and quickly answered before she could. She felt the risk was too great without knowing more before they went in.
"No." Savannah said. "Not until we know where 'The Enforcer' is at."
Cameron looked at Savannah and smiled.
"To be safe, Savannah is correct." Cameron said.
The Metal girls all looked at each other. Everyone believed if Savannah wouldn't have been there that Cameron would have wanted to go to the Syndicate casino.
Sheila hadn't been able to use the bed in the minivan to be with anyone. Cameron wouldn't allow her to do that because they needed to be ready to act. If she couldn't have sex, she would rather create her own 'action' at the Syndicate casino.
"I would just as soon go back and clean the place out again." Sheila said. "They probably have drug money or money from the sex trade that's come in since we were there. There should be something. Even if they don't, it will send a message."
Gail doubted they'd be able to score millions like they did on the first robbery.
"It's too early." Gail said. "We need to wait a day or two first or hit another casino."
Savannah was asleep when the Metal girls cleaned out the Syndicate casino's vault. She would have recommended against them doing it in the first place. She did understand that it became very personal to Cammy, Sheila and Ally. They wanted to send a personal message because of the Syndicate thugs that were sent after them to beat, rob and then assault the three of them. It was clear if the three of them wouldn't have been Terminators, that's exactly what would have happened. The Metal girls wanted the manager who sent the thugs after them and they were able to get him during the robbery. She didn't want things to get out of hand. They didn't need a new enemy, they already had enough.
"There won't be any more robberies." Savannah said. "That's unless it's Skynet related. I don't want to go to war with the Syndicate."
Sheila believed Cammy and her still had a score to settle with the Syndicate from when they'd visited Las Vegas in the past.
"I don't see why not." Sheila said. "They will lose."
Cammy and Sheila looked at each other but neither said anything further. They were both pretty sure they'd done that before in the past. Maybe even to the point of considering detonating an H-bomb in the budding desert oasis and wiping it off the map. Las Vegas wasn't very far from where the atomic testing went on during that time period. They could have put the grab on one of the test bombs and made it look like it was an accidental detonation in the city.
Savannah noticed the unspoken interaction with Cammy and Sheila. She could tell that there was more to their story but she wasn't sure if they even knew.
"If we see some long term relationship develop between Skynet and the Syndicate, then I'll allow that." Savannah said.
Ally thought they could make more productive use of their time.
"We can hit the casino in Reno while we're waiting." Ally said.
Sheila wanted to hurt the Syndicate wherever they could.
"That is a good idea. Our team can go there and clean out that Skynet controlled Syndicate casino too." Sheila said. "Savannah said if it's Skynet related it's fair game."
Cameron knew that the Metal girls wanted to act. It was the nature of their construction and programming. They knew that things didn't get done by thinking about them. She wanted to hurt both Skynet and the Syndicate where it hurt. She wanted to take away whatever leverage Skynet or the Syndicate held over anybody.
"I intend to do that." Cameron said. "We need to make sure any physical evidence they have on the people they're forcing to work for them is destroyed."
Gail didn't like turncoats and collaborators. They turned against their own kind for personal gain or to protect themselves. They put themselves in those compromising situations to begin with.
"We still need to terminate those that were compromised and 'sold out' to the enemy." Gail said. "The punishment for collaboration is death."
Savannah didn't think everyone was actually guilty of being a turncoat or a collaborator. Her understanding of what occurred, was that every one of the individuals that was being blackmailed was set up. Maybe some fat old men wanted to have a young girl in their bed. That was a crime in itself. Maybe they had too much to drink or someone consumed too many drugs. Both of those could have led to the assaults on some of the females who turned up dead in their room. Some of them may have run up hundreds of thousands of dollars in gambling debts because they were inebriated. The Syndicate could do that by providing the individuals all the different vices that they desired. Maybe it all went back to a failure of character. That's actually what it was.
"A collaborator is someone who helps the enemy by choice. If someone was blackmailed, the enemy actually forced the person to help them at that point." Savannah said. "There is a difference between blackmail and collaboration."
Ally still didn't see a difference between them. She decided to make light of it. If the same goal was achieved, then they were no different.
"Yeah, the difference is the way they're spelled." Ally said.
Sheila and Ally high fived up high and down low.
"The end result is the same." Sheila said.
Gail didn't care for the confrontational attitude Ally and Sheila showed Savannah.
"I want both of you to back off immediately. I won't tell you again." Gail said as she approached them. "You will not talk back to Savannah."
Sheila thought that Gail overreacted. It wasn't that big of a deal what they'd said, besides, it was true. It seemed to her that Gail was overly aggressive.
"We don't need to look for 'The Enforcer' anymore, SHE is here." Sheila said.
Gail took two steps forward towards Sheila. Cameron reached out and stopped her.
Cameron didn't want any trouble with anyone.
"Enough." Cameron said. "Savannah is right. She wants us protected. If we play our hand too early it leaves us open to attack.
Savannah appreciated that Gail stuck up for her. She wasn't really sure that's what she wanted her to do. She didn't want Gail to become obsessed with her or overprotective.
"Thanks, Gail." Savannah said as she looked at the other Metal Girls. "You're all pretty quiet."
Holly was ready to move out when it was time. So far it wasn't time.
"It's our function to support the operation." Holly said.
Hanna was as bored as everyone else. Currently all of their plans hinged on one thing. They needed to find one Terminator before things could happen.
"There's no operation yet without the location of 'The Enforcer'." Hanna said.
Savannah looked at Cam and Cammy. They hadn't said much recently.
"What about you two?" Savannah asked.
Cam and Cammy looked at each other and then back at Savannah.
"I agree with Cameron." Cam and Cammy both said at the same time.
That caused all the girls to laugh. It helped to break some of the tension.
Savannah wanted to take care of some personal business while there was a facility to do so. It was nearby to where they waited.
"I need to use the restroom." Savannah said. "At least there's one here for a change."
Samantha started to walk over to where Savannah was at.
"I'll go with you." Samantha said. "I'll make sure there's no trouble."
Cameron quickly moved over next to Savannah. She cut Samantha off on her way there. She didn't want Samantha alone with Savannah.
"I'll go." Cameron said as she glared at Samantha. "I'll be the ONE to make sure Savannah is protected."
The tension returned in an instant.
Cameron didn't like the other Metal girls to try and cut in on her. If she was able to arrange the liaison herself for Savannah and one of them, she didn't have a problem with it. She was the one in control then. She wanted Savannah to feel and share as much love as possible. She still felt guilty for keeping Savannah so isolated from any relationship. She'd wanted to 'save' her for John and Young Allison.
That in turn started Savannah on internet searches of what she wanted and she experimented with herself. It became quite frequent. Savannah told her she needed someone to share with. Young Jesse was the best option since John refused to accept his destiny and the 'Natural Order' at that time.
Cameron would think about what she could arrange for Savannah for later on.
She glanced at her left hand and there was no hint of a glitch. As long as she was in control, there never was. She wondered if it was about perception. Was anyone ever really in control? There seemed to be many times when she thought that she was but she wasn't.
It made her think back to the earlier days when it was just John and Sarah. Future Derek and been there for a while at the first house but he didn't normally stay around at the second house at all. He always seemed to be out and away. It was only later on that they found out why and of his association with Future Jesse, it was all done clandestinely.
She thought she'd established a real connection with John. That was after he reactivated her when he shouldn't have. Right before she was deactivated she'd told him how she felt about him and them. She'd told him that she loved him and he loved her but he deactivated her anyway. She'd fixed herself but he still terminated her. How could he do that?
It saddened her greatly because it looked like a new beginning had been established for them when he didn't use the Thermite on her chassis and put her chip back in instead. He'd pointed the gun at her and then he turned around and gave her the gun. She looked at him and canceled the 'termination order' when it popped up on her HUD because she loved him. She handed him back the gun. He helped her out of the wrecked car and then they walked away hand in hand. She really thought that was going to be a new beginning. It actually turned out to be the beginning of the end.
She needed to go on an assignment with Sarah to the nuclear power plant at Serrano Point. Later on that day when they returned home, there was an interloper that not only had invaded their home, she'd also invaded John's life. It looked like she probably invaded his heart as well. Even if it wasn't the first day, it happened soon enough.
Cameron tried to suppress the glitch impulse that popped up. Now wasn't the time for that to happen. She would most likely be in combat soon and she needed to be fully aware of everything.
The longer nothing happened. The more worried John became. They needed to take down that operation and everything associated with it. Maybe if there was more help for the girls it would make him feel better about it.
"I want to send more Terminators." John said. "I think that we should provide the girls in Las Vegas with the maximum amount of support that we can muster."
John Henry remembered Cameron's earlier request.
"Cameron already asked you not to." John Henry said. "Most of them are already tied up going over the equipment we captured."
John needed the reminder about the majority of his troops. They were going over the captured equipment. It was possible there was still someone who could help him. He normally didn't rely on them for direct assistance on his own. To help Cameron and the girls he considered doing that.
"Maybe CamNet can send some more help." John said.
John Henry felt they were stretched pretty thin right now. Sure they could muster a handful of male Terminators but that would be all. Almost everyone was busy with other assignments currently.
"Most of them are tied up as well." John Henry said. "That's why we have all the Metal girls out in the field."
John was aware that was a fairly unusual procedure as well. Normally the Metal girls weren't too far from their human lovers. Right now they were all in Las Vegas waiting to find 'The Enforcer' so that they could bring him down.
"I wonder how their human girlfriends feel about that." John said.
John Henry monitored all the security feeds. He was able to see where they all were or went and with who. It seemed they were all paired up right now with who they wanted to be with.
"I think they'll manage." John Henry said.
Claire checked on Summer and Jan. Sarah was still with both of them. She headed for Jesse's room. She arrived at Jesse's door and listened. It was quiet. She was about to walk away.
The door opened and Jesse was there. She peeked out the door.
Claire was a little surprised that Jesse appeared so quickly when she hadn't done anything.
"I'm sorry to disturb you." Claire said.
Jesse didn't feel disturbed at all. Once she opened her door when she realized someone was out there and saw that it was Claire, she wasn't disturbed at all. Her body began to respond almost immediately. She knew what was going to happen next and looked forward to it.
"I'm a light sleeper." Jesse said. "Come in."
Jesse didn't bother to tell her that in her future all the females needed to be light sleepers. If they weren't, they would wake up with a knife against their throat or a gun against the side of their head as someone mounted them and used them for two or three minutes before they left. It happened to her more than a few times.
Claire still stood in the hallway as she explained everything to Jesse.
"Vanna and Allison are with Precious. Derek and Riley looked like they needed to be 'alone'." Claire said. "Sarah is with the kids."
Jesse wasn't sure why Claire hadn't entered her room yet.
"Come in." Jesse said again.
Claire entered the room. She noticed right away that everything was spotless and orderly. That hadn't been the case when she'd been to Jesse's room previously. Jesse's room now looked like how she liked to see a room.
Jesse looked out into the hall in both directions and then she closed the door.
"Your room is really neat." Claire said.
Jesse specifically fixed it up for Claire. She didn't want to tell her that. She came up with a plausible answer. It actually was sort of true anyway.
"I like to keep it orderly." Jesse said. "Savannah likes it neat."
Claire was aware Savannah could be tough 'competition' for her. She was young and she was beautiful. She was aware those characteristics appealed to more than just males.
"Does Savannah 'visit' here often?" Claire asked.
Jesse thought back to all the times when she literally ran away from Savannah. Savannah came on to her strong and didn't let up. She knew what Savannah wanted and she wanted to give it to Savannah but she was deathly afraid Vanna or Cameron would kill her if she 'touched' Savannah. She told Cameron about the situation and that something needed to be done for Savannah. It wasn't long after that, that Savannah made the trip to Australia and instantly hooked up with Young Jesse.
It was sometime after that when Cameron approached her and told her that Savannah missed Young Jesse because she was on the other side of the world. Cameron indicated to her Savannah shouldn't need to miss Young Jesse when the same person was here at the Resistance base with her. She verified with Cameron exactly what she meant she could do and Cameron indicated it was everything. Sure enough, the next time Savannah 'hit on her' things begin to happen. She didn't think she'd ever been so nervous in her life for any sexual encounter before like she was the first time she was with Savannah. She thought that part of the problem was her past. She was very ashamed of it compared to someone like Savannah. Savannah could see her trepidation and concern and worked with her to get past it. She already knew Savannah was more than special. When Savannah showed her that the past didn't matter, she understood truly how beautiful Savannah really was.
"She's stopped by a few times." Jesse said. "She and my younger self are 'involved'."
Claire thought that sounded beautiful. She was totally infatuated with Jesse and could only imagine how special it would be to be with the younger version of her. She'd been with Savannah many times in Cameron's future but only a few times in the present. All of those times were very special to her. She remembered one time when she'd shared with Savannah. Young Allison came to her later on and looked at her but didn't say a word. She knew why Young Allison was there too. It was because she'd been with her future lover and mate. It made her feel very guilty at the time but the next opportunity she had to be with Savannah again, she took it and didn't think twice. She knew that life could be very complicated at times. She could see that the situation with Jesse was another one those times.
"It sounds complicated." Claire said.
Jesse felt everyone could share and there would be no problems. As long as no one tried to be too possessive over someone else, there were never any problems. The Metal girls were the ones who tended to be the most possessive over the human females. She made a point to be with each one of them as often as possible. She felt that helped to ease the tension.
"It is but we all make it work." Jesse said. "Everyone can get what they want, even our Metal girlfriends."
Claire noticed Jesse only wore a long tee shirt, it was a little short. It gave her a good unobstructed view of 'all of' Jesse'. She wanted Jesse more than ever but she thought she needed to show some prudence.
"If you want to rest, I can return later." Claire said.
Claire hoped for a little more but she didn't want to push.
Jesse could see Claire looked like she was about to leave. She didn't want her to do that. She wanted to be with her and she wanted to be with her now. She decided to act. She pulled her tee shirt off. She was naked in an instant.
"You're already here." Jesse said as she moved closer to Claire.
Claire took one look at Jesse's nude form. There's no way she could leave now even if she wanted to. There was simply no way to turn down anyone that hot and willing.
"I am." Claire said.
Claire was very excited and aroused as she took in Jesse's naked form.
Jesse moved in front of Claire and kissed her.
Claire started to rapidly undress with Jesse's assistance….
The two of them were very hungry for each other. It seemed they were both driven at a higher intensity that Vanna and Allison were. They both wanted the pleasure that they could provide each other. But there was something deeper that called to both of them from inside of them. They both wanted love and the love was there. It just needed to be unleashed. It was hard to say once it was unleashed if anyone would be able to control it. It seemed doubtful.
Jesse separated from Claire after a long slow deep loving kiss.
"Have you ever heard the expression about 'letting the genie out of the bottle'?" Jesse asked.
Claire swallowed hard when Jesse said that. She'd already contemplated the same thing. She looked directly into Jesse's eyes when she spoke.
"The genie is already out of the bottle." Claire said. "I think we both know it's safe to say the genie will never return to the bottle."
Jesse heard Claire's words and understood what they meant. The dam inside of her cracked a little more and the love begin to flow out.
They kissed very softly and slowly but it was very deep. It was as if they tried to get inside of the other one's body. When they made their intentions clear, they moved elsewhere on to each other's body and shared in the most loving manner possible. It wasn't about sex at this point.
They were both deeply in love with each other.
Neither one of them said anything out loud because they didn't think that they needed to. They both wondered where things would go from where they were.
Allison was still very deeply worried about Vanna and her infatuation with Precious and her new desire for John.
"Vanna, I KNOW you." Allison said.
Vanna didn't like the direction of the conversation.
"And I know you." Vanna said.
Allison spoke sincerely to Vanna.
"You're being caught up in the events." Allison said.
Vanna didn't see a problem with it. She didn't think that Allison should either. She thought if anything that Allison should support her, not chastise her.
"It's what I want." Vanna said.
Allison wanted Vanna to focus on their future.
"We will have that for OURSELVES." Allison said.
There were times when Vanna felt life left them behind.
"I know that." Vanna said. "We aren't getting any younger."
Allison felt she'd made her point but she didn't believe Vanna was listening. She didn't want their discussion to turn into the issue. It wasn't the issue.
"I don't want to make an 'issue' over this." Allison said. "I don't want to fight with you about this."
Vanna understood Allison had her best interest at heart. She just believed with the issue in question that they were on different wavelengths.
"I know you're trying to look out for me." Vanna said. "We always looked out for each other."
Allison was very ashamed of some of the things that she'd done in her future. The breeding sex was one of them. It was one thing to be forcibly assaulted and another one to present yourself and have someone else use you in the same manner as if it was an assault. It actually seemed to her every time that she tried it that the only thing that was missing was a weapon.
"I tried several times in the past – our future to get pregnant." Allison said.
Vanna personally witnessed some of those events.
"I know." Vanna said.
Allison wanted Vanna to know there was a difference between what she'd attempted in the future and what Vanna wanted to do now with John.
"That was all I attempted to do. It was simply for mating, nothing more." Allison said. "I told you about the assaults prior to that. I wasn't trying to hurt you. I never made love or even kissed one of them. I just let them use my secret spot to deposit their genetic material. It was never more than that ever."
Once she understood what Allison actually was up to, it did hurt her. It also sickened her. It was hard for her to understand that Allison would allow a male to use her body. She remembered the tears in Allison's eyes when she returned back to their bunker.
"It did hurt me." Vanna said. "I knew what you were doing and the 'sacrifice' it involved."
Allison confessed to Vanna before about what she tried with John in her future. She felt she needed to mention it again.
"I was going to try it with John in the future too." Allison said. "You were 'gone'. I would have. I know he wanted to."
Vanna didn't want to talk about their 'separation'. What actually happened was something she never even thought was possible.
"My departure happened unexpectedly." Vanna said. "You don't know how I cried and cried to be back in Paradise without you. I didn't know this is where I was going, into the past. I didn't even know it was possible. I was willing to go back into Hell to be with you again but my mother - Mrs. Weaver wouldn't allow it."
Allison didn't want any of Vanna's love directed anywhere else. Vanna's love wasn't meant for anyone else but her.
"We will have a child from one of us at least, Vanna. It will be OUR child." Allison said. "If this baby sticks it will be from me, if not, my mother can help or Savannah can."
Vanna had given the issue some more thought. Actually it was every time that she nursed Precious when she thought about it. She couldn't imagine Savannah doing this with her infants for several months and then having to leave them behind with another future version of herself. She didn't know anyone would have the strength to do that but somehow Savannah did.
"It can't be Savannah." Vanna said. "I won't take HER baby from her. She's sacrificed enough. I see how special this is with Precious. Savannah stayed to nurse HER babies for several months. It had to kill her inside to leave them. She must be stronger than I am."
Allison knew Cameron prepared Savannah for a Skynet future.
"Cameron has hardened her for the future. She did what was necessary. We all will when we have to. I think both of them will help us anyway." Allison said. "Young Allison told me too she would help me."
Vanna cringed a little with Allison's statement. It was the same story that she'd heard before.
"She's still young." Vanna said. "Those are the same promises Savannah made to Cameron as a girl."
Allison was aware that Young Allison was a lot closer than any of them were aware of, to being physically ready.
"She kept them too." Allison said. "They will both still keep them and my mother also."
Vanna felt some frustration. It was like all of the pieces for the puzzle were there but nobody could put it together.
"Something will happen for the good in all this." Vanna said as she looked at Precious.
Allison looked down at Precious and checked her.
"She's asleep now." Allison said.
Vanna looked at her true love. She'd just been reminded that Allison was her true love.
"We're not." Vanna said.
She carefully placed Precious in the center of their bed.
"No, we're not." Allison said. "We don't have any place to go." Allison said.
A smile formed on Vanna's face.
"We can use the floor." Vanna said. "It's where we 'started'."
Allison remembered the first time that Vanna took her. She'd waited so long for it to happen and indicated to Vanna many times that she was 'ready'. She'd been very nervous when Vanna kissed her and Vanna pulled back. She urged Vanna to continue and she did. Everything happened after that the way it was supposed to. She understood what love was.
"At least we have a clean blanket this time." Allison said.
The two long time lovers moved close and embraced each other.
They kissed and then kissed deeper. They were both aroused.
Allison moved her mouth close to Vanna's ear.
"Take me again, like you did the first time." Allison whispered.
Vanna remembered every detail about that day and what happened. She'd been very hesitant to 'break Allison in'.
"You were apprehensive." Vanna said.
Allison was filled with excitement now. She was then too even if she was a little apprehensive.
"I was ready. It was the first time I was able to have a 'choice'." Allison said. "I was in love with you. I've never stopped loving you."
Vanna had been with dozens of females before she was with Allison the first time. She knew that Allison watched her share with some of those females. She always believed that it was a good learning experience for her. Those encounters were all just sex.
"As I have with you…." Vanna said. "I waited to make sure it was what you really wanted. I wanted you so much before then. I waited until you were ready and you knew you were ready."
Allison thought back on it. She was in love with Vanna then but didn't know what to do and how to proceed. She wanted more but was afraid. She thought it was because she was afraid to love. It didn't matter if it was another female. She was afraid to love because people died all the time from many different things. It hurt so much more to lose one you loved and cared for. She knew Vanna touched herself at night, she could hear it. She began to experiment as well. She wanted Vanna to know what she was doing to prompt her. It worked.
"Take me again, now." Allison whispered.
Vanna moved the hair back from Allison's face and looked deep into her eyes.
"I looked at you like this…." Vanna said.
"Yes." Allison said.
"I held you like this…." Vanna said.
"Yes." Allison said.
"I touched you like this…." Vanna said.
"Yes." Allison said.
"I kissed you like this…." Vanna said.
"Yes." Allison said.
"I touched you here and here like this…." Vanna said.
"Yes." Allison said. "Yes"
Vanna and Allison were suddenly in each other's arms and did everything as they pleasured each other.
It wasn't long before Vanna could see she was about to send Allison over the top. She spoke to heighten and expand the feeling. Allison was right at the edge.
"I MADE you feel - THIS…." Vanna whispered.
"Yes." Allison said. "Yes – YES – Y E S…."
As she heard and felt Allison and her words, it sent Vanna over the edge too. It was just like their first time. Allison hadn't even touched her yet when that happened. That was the moment she knew that it was true love.
It was beautiful.
Anna watched Young Allison search the security feeds at the Resistance base.
"What are you looking for?" Anna asked.
Young Allison was bored like all of the Metal girls were in Las Vegas.
"There is a lull in the activity in Las Vegas." Young Allison said. "I was just keeping busy."
Anna knew what Young Allison was really up to.
"You were spying again." Anna said.
Young Allison didn't think it was a big deal. It wasn't like it was anything new.
"I'm curious." Young Allison said.
Anna wanted to point out to Young Allison that she already knew everything.
"You've already seen Allison and Vanna with your own eyes. I've seen you 'watch' them as you spied on them." Anna said.
Young Allison felt that was a 'two way street' and she didn't mind pointing that out.
"Then you spied on me. I want to know what - I do. What I'm supposed to do…." Young Allison said. "I'm not the first girl to spy on her 'big sister' or mother for that matter."
Anna knew she was guilty of doing the same thing when no one else was around.
"That's true." Anna said.
Young Allison couldn't wait to go into the past and return to the present.
"I'll have the best of 'both worlds' when I return." Young Allison said.
Music started to play
Young Allison looked around.
"Are you doing that?" Young Allison asked.
Anna kept a straight face.
"Maybe…." Anna said.
'Little Sister' by 'Elvis Presley', filled the room.
What You Have
I look in my heart
I ask you to do the same
Feel who you really want
Love is not a game
Pretty faces come and go
True love is eternal
You know our love
Has been sempiternal
Time has proven
Our love will continue to grow
Even if at times
It seems the progress is slow
I don't understand why
I'm treated so satirical
For what is growing within us
Hasn't yet reached its pinnacle
Open your eyes and see
Feel your heart calve
Do you even know
What you have
Nobody
