Chapter 1081
Bad Example
Sheila and Ally arrived at Cameron's base and checked out the female prisoner. It was clear that Cameron or one of her Terminators already 'worked' on the prisoner. She was a bloody wreck. She'd been beaten severely for answers. She was still alive.
Ally looked at the area her battered body was in.
"Who is going to clean up this mess?" Ally asked.
Sheila looked a little uneasy. She briefly considered doing some of her 'personal handiwork'. She could hear the female scream a little more than she'd obviously already done. This right now wasn't her doing.
"Not us." Sheila said. "Let's go."
Ally looked around at the mess again.
"I think it's a 'cleaner termination' when you work on them." Ally said.
Sheila smiled. She enjoyed her work. At least she used to.
"I concentrate on a few areas." Sheila said. "Some things matter a little more to people than other things do."
Ally could see Sheila look the female over and think about something.
"Are you going to do anything to her?" Ally asked. "She's still alive. She'll know what you do to her. I know you like to do that."
Sheila already thought about it but didn't feel like doing it, at least not today.
"Cameron has forbidden me from some practices." Sheila said. "I don't want her to do them to me."
Ally cringed a little at that thought. She thought that was extreme, even for Cameron. She knew that females weren't the only ones that Sheila worked on.
"What if it was a male?" Ally asked. "That would be a stretch."
Sheila looked at the female prisoner again. She lightly moistened her lips. She didn't like what she'd been called by the female prisoner on her transport to Cameron's base earlier. She was tempted to work on her. She would make sure she was conscience and then go to work on the rest of her body. She needed to clear her mind.
"She said it would be the 'closest parts' I have to what the males have." Sheila said. "Let's go before I get tempted."
Sheila reached up and touched her heart through her sheath. They quickly left the area.
Ally knew a few days ago Sheila would have worked on the prisoner before leaving. Today she didn't even look back. It was clear there was a change going on inside Sheila. It was positive too. She didn't know how long it would last.
Sheila and Ally left Cameron's base. They headed for the airport.
On the way there Sheila decided she wanted to do something for Cameron and John. It also might have the long term effect of preventing Cameron from disfiguring her. She was going to allow Cameron to use her chassis to be with John. She hoped it would show Cameron that she loved both her and John.
Sheila decided to make it extra special for Cameron and John on top of that. She wouldn't be with John Henry first. She would allow Cameron to give her virginity to John with her chassis. She hoped Cameron would share the file with her afterwards. That way she would have the experience, even if it wasn't her experience. It was still her chassis.
Ally looked over at Sheila and could tell she was somewhere else. She wondered what new plot Sheila was dreaming up. She would be very surprised when she found out about Sheila's plan. She didn't think many females would go for that.
The B-25 sat idling on the tarmac. Everything was checked and ready to go.
Young Allison was behind Savannah and Cameron on the jump seat. Derek was behind her. He watched everything. They all wore headphones.
Savannah obtained permission from the tower to head down the taxiway to the north end of the runway for take off. They passed by a 'Great War' or 'World War One' themed restaurant. A few people there rushed to the fence to watch them pass. Cameron previously took both Young Allison and her there for 'Sunday Brunch'. It was a nice place with a nice view. The food was pretty good too. She wasn't the one that needed to pay for it but she thought it was a little pricey for what it was. It didn't really matter since the best part of going there was the view.
Two planes landed while they waited on the taxiway. She waited her turn for clearance to turn onto the runway.
When Savannah received her clearance she rolled around and lined up with the runway for take off. She ran the engines up to make sure everything was good. She stood on the brakes as she ran the power up. They both checked the instruments.
Cameron quickly checked with the rest of the crew members. She gave Savannah a 'thumbs up'.
Savannah released the brakes and firewalled the throttles as the Mitchell rapidly moved along the runway Anyone within earshot or eyesight of the runway turned their head to look. It was the unmistakable sound of a Warbird back in action.
The B-25 thundered down the runway and was airborne halfway to the tower. She stayed a hundred feet above the runway in a very slow climb as air speed was built up.
As she neared the end of the runway, she went into an aggressive climb. She traded speed for altitude. She made her turn to the west this time. She didn't fly over the area where Cameron tried to 'get out' of the other aircraft before. That was an episode she hoped never to repeat. It was still unnerving to think about.
Derek asked Young Allison if she wanted the nose position. She told him to take it for now. Anna came over the top of the bomb bay from the rear fuselage and took up station in the top turret. Cammy was in the tail gun position and Gail watched both sides from the waist gun positions. They were using VFR and didn't want any surprises.
Derek was in the nose as he checked out the view. He soon noted that they were about to pass over the area where Cameron attacked the Syndicate vehicles that pursued him the other day. He was sure that wasn't a coincidence. Maybe it was and it allowed Cameron a target of opportunity as she flew with the girls.
He thought back on his observation as Savannah took off and flew the plane. It always blew him away all the things Cameron taught her and now Young Allison. He knew one thing for sure. He'd watched both Vanna and Allison from a younger age and Savannah and Young Allison were way beyond them in everything that he could think of. It seemed the only people who could do more than Savannah and most likely Young Allison were Terminators. He hadn't been around Summer very often but he could tell she might be the ultimate prodigy if everything was cultivated.
Derek soon spotted the ocean in the distance. They were just about 'feet wet' only a few minutes after take off. He enjoyed his time in the B-25 before and he enjoyed this opportunity now as well.
Savannah checked all her instruments. Everything was in good order. She checked the map and her heading.
"I'll climb to eight thousand feet over the water before we get to the Channel Islands." Savannah said.
Young Allison hoped to get some target practice in. She thought she'd done very well with the limited amount of practice she'd been able to experience.
"Can we do gunnery practice again?" Young Allison asked.
Cameron wanted Savannah to know they were going to switch copilots. She looked over at Savannah and Savannah nodded.
Cameron looked at Young Allison and unbuckled. She got up out of the copilot's seat.
Young Allison hoped Cameron was going to let her fly.
"Oh, boy…." Young Allison said.
Cameron motioned for her to come forward.
Young Allison climbed into the copilot's seat. She adjusted it and strapped in.
Cameron checked to make sure both of them were secure.
Savannah took that as a cue that there may be some aggressive flying ahead. She wanted to verify everyone else was secure.
"We need to make sure that Derek and the others are secure before we do any maneuvering." Savannah said.
"I'll check Derek out and then I'll load the guns." Cameron said.
Anna went back over the top of the bomb bay. She checked on Gail and Cammy in the rear fuselage.
John hoped to find out what Cameron was up to before she did it. She didn't inform him very well about what her plans were. He usually only found out about them after the event was concluded. He was sure he only knew about a small percentage of the things that she actually did. He'd asked John Henry to look into it.
"What did you find?" John asked.
John Henry was as surprised as he wasn't about what he'd found. There'd obviously been some manipulation by Cameron through CamNet about her future plans for today.
"CamNet has filed and already 'approved' them herself. There are numerous movie filming locations with multiple cities and with the FAA for aerial filming." John Henry said.
John hoped Savannah would be the moderating factor in Cameron's or Young Allison's decisions. He was aware of how much the same Young Allison and Cameron actually were. He was pretty sure that once she was an older teenager that she was going to be very hard to control by anyone.
"Savannah will keep everyone in check." John said. "Young Allison will push it and Cameron will really push it otherwise. Savannah will be the voice of reason and hopefully moderation."
John Henry was aware that Young Allison's actions were a direct result of her Terminator upbringing.
"Young Allison will push it because that's what Cameron has taught her. It's been part of her instruction since Cameron 'took control' of Young Allison." John Henry said. "You witnessed Young Allison's input on the operations."
John saw it a different way. He wasn't pleased at the way Cameron 'took over' Young Allison's life. He knew that if they hadn't entered the Young family's lives that all of them would be leading a very different life currently. He was sure that they all would have had a much happier and pleasant life than what they currently experienced. It made him wonder if Claire would still be married to her husband Paul. Currently she no longer was. That made her 'available' to him. He really wondered how much Cameron was involved with that decision for Claire to do that. He was aware of everything Cameron made 'available' to Claire. He really wondered where Young Allison would be right now otherwise.
"You mean 'stole' Young Allison from her mother." John said.
John Henry believed there were several ways to view it. He didn't think learning to survive in a Skynet future was a bad thing in the long run. They still had no idea if Judgment Day would happen or not. They'd worked hard to prevented but that didn't mean it wouldn't still happen.
"Cameron only 'borrows' her." John Henry said. "Her chances of survival in a Skynet future are many times greater now than before."
John Henry didn't think now was a good time to point out the alternate future John created and the abuse that happened to all the females in the future.
John didn't want to go there. He looked forward to being away with Cameron on the cruise. He thought about operations in his absence. He wanted there to be others involved with the operations that occurred in the Command Center.
"When I'm on my cruise, I know you and CamNet can run everything." John said. "I'd like the human input from Young Allison or Savannah."
John Henry thought Young Allison would want to be in her bunker. He thought she might prefer the solitude that it offered and continued the separation between her family and her.
"Young Allison will operate out of the Young bunker, with Anna and CamNet." John Henry said. "Savannah can take your place here. Derek, Kyle and Sarah should all take turns."
There was an underlying worry for John. He thought he should address it. He wanted Savannah and Young Allison safe, at least as safe as possible. He didn't want someone to move the goalposts when he wasn't around to say anything. He understood it was a strong possibility.
"I don't want those girls in combat if anything develops." John said.
It was clear to John Henry what would happen if a situation arose. Savannah would step up and assume Cameron's role. Cammy would most likely be at her side. She would do everything that Cameron would normally do but Savannah would be the one who called the shots. He also knew that if things turned bad Cammy would take the heat. That was understandable.
"Savannah will lead a force of Terminators if the need arises." John Henry said.
John knew it was true too. That wasn't what he wanted to hear. Savannah would step up and Cammy or Cam would become 'Cameron' in her absence. It was a role both of them were built for.
"I'm afraid of that." John said. "I don't want Savannah endangered. I want her protected as much as possible."
John Henry didn't think it would be a problem. He was aware that every Terminator would want to go on whatever mission she went on.
"There will be plenty of volunteers." John Henry said.
John wanted to get back to where the plane was at now. He wanted to know what they were up to.
"Are you tracking their flight?" John asked.
John Henry was a little surprised he could still track them.
"CamNet hasn't blocked anything yet." John Henry said.
John wanted a better location. He wanted an exact location.
"Where are they?" John asked as he looked at one screen.
John Henry pointed to a specific spot on the satellite map overlay.
"Over here." John Henry said.
John wondered where they were headed.
"That's not the way to Palmdale." John said.
John Henry didn't know what their route would be.
"It looks like they're taking the long way." John Henry said.
John thought it was the long way all right. It was the opposite direction.
"They're headed for the Channel Islands." John said.
John Henry thought that the girls would like to get as much flight time in as possible. He was aware it was a treat for them to be in such an aircraft and able to fly it.
"I think they're going to have a long flight." John Henry said.
John knew the B-25 possessed long legs. He wasn't exactly sure how far. He remembered reading the Mitchell was popular with drug runners in the Sixties and Seventies before they switched to smaller modified jets. He didn't remember where he'd read that.
"What's the range on a B-25?" John asked.
John Henry was aware it depended upon a series of variables.
"It's at least twelve hundred miles, even with some 'hot dogging'." John Henry said. "With auxiliary fuel tanks in the bomb bay, they could get two thousand miles out of it, if they flew lean."
John wondered where they would end up.
"They could cover half the nation." John said. "They could go to a lot of Canada and most of Mexico."
John Henry didn't think that would be a problem if they carried an auxiliary fuel tank in the bomb bay.
"It seems they could do all of that easily." John Henry said. "I don't think they're going to overdo it. I don't know that for sure."
John knew that anything was possible when Cameron was involved. He now wondered if this wasn't actually a live mission by Cameron.
"Are there any Skynet related targets Cameron can hit?" John asked. "Do you know if she's headed to any of them?"
John Henry made a quick update. He would need more information to come up with a positive answer. There wasn't any.
"There are no hard targets that I'm aware of." John Henry said.
John saw the plane vanish from his monitor after he asked the question. That wasn't a good indication.
"Where did they go?" John asked. "They disappeared from the tracking."
John Henry checked and CamNet informed him the mission was now 'dark'.
"CamNet has blocked further monitoring." John Henry said.
John was worried he was going to trigger that reaction.
"Beautiful." John said. "Absolutely beautiful…."
John wondered what folly Cameron would subject the girls to. Savannah with Cameron was bad enough. Young Allison being there too only made it worse. He was very worried about her safety. He was worried about the safety of all of them actually. He didn't want to be the one who needed to explain things to her mother if anything bad happened to Young Allison.
Derek was in the nose of the B-25. It was almost hard for him to believe he was but he knew where he currently sat. He took in the view. The sound was exhilarating to him as well. He offered the nose position to anyone who wanted it. He was surprised when Cameron came down and made sure he was strapped in.
"Who's flying?" Derek asked.
Cameron answered without any hesitation. She didn't think it would be a problem for anyone.
"Young Allison is." Cameron said. "She's as proficient as she is competent."
Derek wasn't surprised.
"She's amazing." Derek said.
Cameron was proud of her girls.
"She's a quick learner, they both are." Cameron said.
Cameron didn't tell him that Anna and Cammy went over every maneuver and scenario with Savannah and Young Allison in their sleep many times. They did that with everything, including academic studies. Everything that the girls needed to do was already in their heads. It would pop up when it was needed. That was the hope anyway.
"I'm setting up the guns for live fire." Cameron said.
Derek saw it as a learning opportunity.
"Can I help with that?" Derek asked. "I'd like to learn."
Cameron expected him to want to do more already. She was very pleased when he was the one who'd suggested it.
"If you'd like to help you can." Cameron said. "I'll get the first one hot. You can watch me and then do the other three."
Derek followed Cameron out through the crawlway. He thought the view behind Cameron wasn't too bad either. He knew that he shouldn't think about her like that but it was pretty hard not to. He knew beauty when he saw it. They all did.
They exited the crawlway and went to work.
Claire was aware that she'd become very promiscuous. There was more sex and love making now in her life than ever before. It was also the most rewarding and fulfilling as well. Sometimes she wondered if Cameron used sex to control her. If that was the goal, it worked.
"I feel bad sometimes about the example I'm setting for my girls." Claire said.
Hanna didn't see it as a problem. The future already happened. It would happen again.
"I wouldn't worry about it." Hanna said. "Young Allison's destiny is already known."
Young Allison wasn't the only one that Claire needed to worry about. She had more than one daughter.
"I do worry about it." Claire said. "At least for Summer I do."
Claire didn't want the future to overtake both of her girls prematurely.
Hanna, like every Terminator, would protect all of the girls in the Resistance from being assaulted in the future. It was one thing that Cameron stressed to all of them. After Judgment Day, it would be their top priority along with protecting them from everything else. No one wanted to see the girls held down by a group of men as they each took a 'turn'.
"They'll all have a choice." Hanna said. "What happened to the girls from the future will never happen to them."
That was a reminder to Claire what Cameron would do to protect them from that fate. At some point her daughter may want something different than planned. She wondered if she would still have a free choice in that.
"What if My Allison decides she wants something different than 'scheduled'?" Claire asked.
Hanna felt that was impossible. She didn't know how things would play out but she did know one thing for certain. It was the same in every timeline.
"She will not." Hanna said. "Savannah and her are destined to be together."
Claire knew from experience that sometimes girls get 'curious' for other things.
"What about John or someone else?" Claire said. "Everyone wants to 'experiment' once they start."
Hanna didn't like the current train of thought. She was aware that's what happened to all of the Metal girls. They all wanted to 'experiment'. They were soon all with each other and every female in the Resistance that was willing.
"Don't worry about this." Hanna said. "Everyone will have what they want."
Claire was afraid she was being controlled through sex. She tried to avoid the issue but needed to ask.
"Am I being manipulated or blinded by all the sex and choices available to me?" Claire asked. "I don't feel that I'm being used at all but I feel like I'm being allowed to run wild."
Hanna didn't see it as anything 'bad'. She knew that life was about choices. Every choice that Claire made was her own choice. She could choose not to do anything she was reluctant to engage in.
"Has anyone 'forced' you or 'made' you do anything you didn't want to do?" Hanna asked.
Claire felt so much was available with a good variety that it was impossible not to reach out and try everything. Who could resist such a selection of beautiful and willing females? It didn't matter if they were a human or a Terminator. They were still beautiful and they were still females. Best of all was that they were all willing. She felt she lacked self control.
"No." Claire said. "That's just it. I'm like a kid in a candy store. I can have anything or anyone I want at any time and it is all good."
Claire believed all the females were like a drug. The more she experienced, the more she wanted. It was more than just wanted. It was needed. She knew at this point she was 'hooked'. She was addicted to the sex and love. She was a 'sex junkie'.
Hanna didn't think Claire should dwell on her actions. She thought she should look into her heart instead. She knew it was the mind but still humans thought of love in a different manner.
"Don't you feel love?" Hanna asked. "What does your heart tell you?"
Claire's heart and mind both told her that it was the most satisfying and beautiful time in her life.
"It tells me that I have more of everything than I ever experienced in my life." Claire said. "I feel more love, I love more and I've never been so satisfied with everything."
Happiness, fulfillment and contentment all seemed like good things to Hanna. She thought that was a fair 'trade' for Young Allison.
"Are you happy with everything?" Hanna asked.
Claire still didn't want to 'lose' Summer but was pretty sure it already happened. It was just not evident. No one, including Summer, made a point to display that fact.
"I'm happy as long as Summer isn't taken from me." Claire said.
Hanna tilted her head slightly.
"Nobody has ever taken anything from you." Hanna said.
Claire felt differently about that. She thought it was a matter of perspective. She was a mother and she could see her daughter wanted to live her life elsewhere. She'd seen that for a long time. She wanted her future ahead of time. Maybe some of her friends in school wanted that too. They all made bad choices. It was still different with Young Allison. She was ready for a future that was filled with violence and death. It bothered her that it didn't bother Young Allison.
"My Allison has been 'gone' a long time in reality, even if she was right in front of me for most of it." Claire said.
Hanna thought it went back to what life was about. Life was about choices. Young Allison made her own choices. She may have had a few suggestions from conditioning but she was still the master of her own direction. Her own free will was capable of overriding any 'suggestion' that she'd ever heard.
"Young Allison is a remarkable human being." Hanna said. "The choices she makes are her own at this point. I know that you know that."
Hanna could see Claire was starting to show symptoms of 'withdrawal'. It was time for another 'fix'. She wasn't so sure it was just Claire or any of the girls that was 'controlled' through sex. She also felt the need and desire herself on her own. She didn't see it as a problem or a shortcoming. She saw it as something beautiful.
Hanna kissed Claire deeply.
"Let's make love again before Bob starts the firearm's training." Hanna said.
Claire wanted that. She wanted the love and she wanted the sex. Every morning when she woke up she wanted more. It seemed no matter how much she received, it was never enough.
Being at the base allowed her multiple partners several times a day. Anything she wanted or desired was available in any quantity she wanted it. Soon Hanna made her worries all disappear.
Claire remembered what Jesse told her before. It was their only escape from the hell of the future. She thought it was a pretty good escape from any of her problems in the present. Nothing else mattered at this point in time. There was only the goal of the 'finish' and how many could be achieved one after another.
Allison watched Vanna nurse Precious. She really liked the changes to Vanna's body. She liked the fullness of Vanna's breasts. She'd seen plenty of withered breasts in the future. Vanna and hers were always perfect with no sag or droop. It was something they thought about but never talked about. People couldn't help how they were. They still knew beauty when they saw it. They always saw beauty in each other.
"I can't believe how big your breasts are now." Allison said. "You're the same size Savannah was."
Vanna was aware it took her some time to get there. She hoped to get larger but doubted it. It was something that she'd actually worked on with Cam. She'd tried everything to get larger but she thought she was at the pinnacle currently.
"I am her. We're the same person." Vanna said. "I've experienced a lot of 'help'. It's increased my production."
Allison wondered when Vanna would stop lactating.
"Do you know how long it will last?" Allison asked. "It stops soon."
Vanna didn't know the answer to that question. She thought it depended upon the individual and circumstances but as far as it went normally, there didn't seem to be any specific time limit.
"This isn't our future. Things are different here. It can last for years." Vanna said. "It's up to you."
Allison wasn't exactly sure what that meant.
"Why would it be up to me?" Allison asked.
"When your baby, 'our baby', is no longer a baby, you can still keep me in production." Vanna said. "My body can finally do something it was designed to do. I may be sterile but I can still nurse. Nobody says it needs to be a baby either."
Allison touched her lower abdomen. She was sure she would fail again. She wasn't even sure how many times that she'd tried. She wondered if it would make a difference if she was able to get pregnant in the traditional manner. She knew how it worked. It didn't matter. Everything needed to be in place and it didn't matter how it got there.
"I really wish I knew what was going to happen." Allison said.
Vanna didn't know if that was such a good idea. There were a lot of variables in life.
"I think it's better if we don't know." Vanna said. "Look at Savannah and Young Allison."
That scenario actually bothered Allison more than a little. What happened in her future wasn't exactly the same as what happened in Cameron's future.
"Cameron has planned out their lives from day one." Allison said.
Vanna didn't think all of the blame or credit fell on Cameron for that.
"That may actually be Future John's fault." Vanna said.
Allison knew what the constant was in all of the futures. It was Vanna in her.
"Maybe it's our fault." Allison said.
Vanna switched Precious to her other breast.
"When Precious is done, we'll see if it's anyone's 'fault'." Vanna said.
Allison bent down and gave Vanna a kiss.
"I can hardly wait." Allison said.
Vanna knew Allison liked to take matters into her own hands.
"Don't start without me." Vanna said.
Allison smiled to herself. Vanna knew her very well.
"You know I like to get 'warmed up'." Allison said.
Allison actually liked to knock off a quick one herself before things got started. She would be in a super high state of arousal at that point which always increased her pleasure. She didn't always have the time or opportunity to do that. Whatever she did have the time, it was something that she liked to do.
Bad Example
Do as you say
Not as you do
Seems to be the case
When it applies to me and you
That's not equal
That's not fair
That's not the way
To show that you care
You'd better listen up
It's time for some advice
You need to bend some
Allow a little sacrifice
You need to think about
What's already been done
Then you'll understand
Why you now have none
It's time to act
The warnings have been ample
It's time to atone for
Your bad example
Nobody
