Chapter 1458


Morning Soon Enough


Ally followed Summer out of the Command Center back to her room. She was going to see if she could join Claire and Hanna.

Summer looked at Ally for a moment.

"Camille is watching Precious." Summer said. "Maybe she would like to join up with Young Jesse for the rest of the night."

Ally didn't get to watch Precious very often. There wasn't much to do there. Then again, it wasn't what Summer really 'told' her now.

"I guess I could relieve her." Ally said. "I would rather relieve Samantha where she's at now."

Summer opened her door. She'd made her position clear. Everyone was free to choose.

"I'll leave it up to you." Summer said. "Goodnight, Ally."

Ally smiled at her.

"Goodnight." Ally said.

Ally watched the door close. She was right next to Claire's door now. She decided to peek inside and see what was happening.

Hanna was there when the door opened. She was naked.

"Claire's asleep." Hanna said.

Ally looked around.

"You're not." Ally said.

Hanna looked back and spoke softly.

"I need to condition Summer tonight." Hanna said.

Ally wondered what for.

"She already knows everything." Ally said.

Hanna felt there was always more to absorb.

"She can learn more." Hanna said. "Her potential is unlimited."

Ally frowned.

"I'll be around." Ally said.

Ally left. She headed to the other girl's rooms. She looked in on Savannah and Young Jesse. They were both asleep. They were alone. Jesse, Allison and Vanna were all asleep too. Their Metal lovers were in bed, or in the room, with them. Cammy and Sheila were still at it. It looked like it was 'love fueled' at this point.

She thought about asking Sheila if she wanted to check up on Mary, Laura and Leticia. They could drive over there and check them out. Maybe it was too soon. It seemed to be a sore spot for Sheila. Sheila wanted more but knew she would endanger the girls in the long run.

Ally went and entered the nursery. Camille joined her a few seconds later.

"How's Jesse – Young Jesse?" Camille asked.

Ally could only tell her what she'd observed. She also remembered what Summer 'suggested'.

"She's asleep." Ally said. "Would you like to join her?"

Camille was thrilled to watch Precious. She was seldom around an infant. She was never around one she could hold and touch. She thought about why she was there.

"I told Samantha I would take over her post until she returned." Camille said. "It seems like she's been gone a long time."

Ally wondered about Precious. Maybe she would need some nourishment.

"It will be morning soon enough." Ally said. "Does Precious need anyone? I can get Vanna or Jesse."

Camille hadn't been able to predict what Precious would do at any particular point in time. It seemed very irregular to her.

"I don't really know." Camille said. "Precious seems unpredictable to me. Samantha knows all the ins and outs."

Ally thought about where Samantha was actually at. It was in John's bed with Cameron in control of her chassis. She was well aware of what the procedure entailed. It gave her a pleasant thought.

"I think she's getting plenty of 'ins and outs' right now." Ally said.

Camille smiled at the thought. She was ready for more.

"I hope to allow Cameron to do it with my chassis again." Camille said.

Ally wasn't sure how the Metal girls would fit in compared to the human girls. Most of the Metal girls were patterned after the human girls. Well, everyone except Holly and Gail.

"We all want it." Ally said. "I think John will want to try it more with the human girls."

Camille knew what they would all want. It was the same thing they all wanted.

"They will all want him." Camille said. "It's how I feel and it was Cameron who was actually with him. I just got the file."

Ally wanted to give Camille the opportunity to go elsewhere. She would try again.

"I can relieve you if you want." Ally said. "I'm already here."

Camille thought about her options. She also thought about her prior commitment.

"I'm good for now." Camille said. "I'll stay until Samantha returns. I don't want to disturb Young Jesse."

Ally bid her farewell and left.

She went back and checked on Young Jesse. She thought about joining her but Camille would be back at some point. She didn't want to create an issue. Camille just told her she didn't want to disturb Young Jesse. It wouldn't go over very well if she did in Camille's absence.

Ally went to Savannah's room. She looked around and slipped inside. Savannah was asleep. She stripped off her clothes and slipped into bed next to her. She scanned her and decided she would wait until she awoke on her own. If Savannah woke up and wanted company, she would be there for her. She pleasured herself twice and went into standby next to Savannah.


Young Allison needed to start out early tomorrow. It was really later today at this point. She should have gone to bed earlier. She was going to be sleepy later on. She'd stayed with the operation until it was concluded. John and Cameron were tied up. She needed to complete her duty assignment.

She was glad Savannah was able to get some sleep. She hoped the girls gave her some time to rest. She used the restroom, brushed her teeth and washed her face. She climbed into bed and started to take out her tablet.

No. She needed to sleep. She closed her eyes and opened them two minutes later. She was still keyed up. She looked over at the open door and frowned. She didn't feel like getting up to close it. Anna knew what she did anyway. She pleasured herself once and then a second time. Her heart rate was up but she felt relaxed. She was flooded with endorphins right now.

It would be morning soon enough.


Cameron shared a fantastic time with John as she switched chassis back and forth between Samantha's chassis and her own.

John was tired out. He was spent. 'Cameron's little helper' was no longer active. He thought about what would happen tomorrow.

"We need to wrap this up soon." John said. "We have a debriefing first thing."

Cameron was still in a playful mood.

"You've done plenty of 'de-briefing' today." Cameron said.

John couldn't help but laugh a little at what Cameron said. He thought it was as cute as it was funny. It made him think about all the activity over the last week. He knew who the one responsible for everything was.

"Yes I have." John said. "It's all thanks to you. I appreciate everything."

Cameron smiled. She was currently in her chassis. She reached back and unplugged from the tether.

John quickly released Samantha's right breast he'd been fondling. He saw her open her eyes a few seconds later. She unplugged the tether from her neck.

Samantha thanked Cameron and John several times over. She was thrilled by what Cameron did for her. She said she was available for more of the same, the same way, anytime.

Cameron suggested they take a quick shower together. She told Samantha and John to get started. She wanted to see how the operations turned out. She was going to go to the Command Center. She looked down at her naked sheath. She was going to go without clothing. She decided to use her com instead. She was very surprised everything was current and concluded. It was different.

CamNet informed her Young Allison only went to bed a short while ago and would be tired tomorrow. CamNet didn't inform her about the operations she currently conducted. Currently they were all Resistance related. They would be some more off the books activity as well.

Cameron was aware CamNet worked with Summer. She wanted to know more about the extent of their involvement. Now wasn't the time to ask. She didn't know Summer was the one behind it and actually controlled what happened. She didn't know a lot of what Summer did with both John Henry's server and CamNet. They didn't either. It was the whole point.

Samantha and John were in the shower. They shared some small talk.

"I'm going to do the 'Neural Interface' with Claire." Samantha said.

She didn't mention she wanted to do one with Riley too.

John wanted to know what the effects would be.

"How much will it change you?" John asked.

Samantha hadn't been active for very long. She'd been given a limited amount of information from a prior 'neural interface' with Claire. It had been heavily modified before she'd received it. It was done originally after Paul Young moved out. She didn't know the full story behind it. Nobody did. It was better to do the procedure ASAP.

"I really don't know." Samantha said. "I look forward to being more like Claire."

John was all for it. He was pleased with Samantha's chassis and how Cameron used it. He looked forward to being with Claire now. He still needed to tell Cameron he was with Jesse earlier in the day. It was actually yesterday at this point. He didn't think he'd overreached on it. It really allowed him to see a side of Jesse he didn't know existed. If it was the 'real' Jesse, she was beautiful. His time with Young Jesse was a little more condensed. It was her first time with a male. She was pretty nervous and inexperienced. He liked it because she was. It allowed him to teach her a few things.

Cameron joined them in the shower. It was a lot smaller than the shower on the ship was. He was sure there was room for ten people in it. Where they were now was too crowded so he got out and left Cameron and Samantha to talk with each other. It seemed there were a few things they wanted to talk about. He took one look back at them in the shower together. He really missed the giant shower in their suite on the ship. He also missed their suite. In fact, he missed everything on the ship. It was really nice.

John dried off while they finished up. He was going to leave two towels for them. They both exited the shower before he could leave. They stood side by side dripping wet. It was a sight to take in. It was the ultimate 'mother-daughter' match up if there ever was one.

He handed them each a towel.

Cameron urged him to dry them off.

"I think you can help both of us out." Cameron said.

John was very pleased with his new assignment. He made sure there was a lot of touching on both of them. It excited him when he could get a giggle out of one of them.

Cameron wanted John to get a good look at Samantha so he would want to be with Claire. She wanted 'everything' taken care of so the Honeymoon would officially be over. She wasn't going to say anything to Savannah about it. She didn't want to pressure her.

John would really like to have a little more from both of them. He would like a little more from all of them. He knew he needed to show some moderation. He needed to show some respect for Cameron as well. What she'd allowed and provided for him was unbelievable. It really was the best honeymoon ever. He put on his night clothes. He needed to get some sleep. He was about a day short on it.

Samantha and Cameron both dressed. They made it as playful and sexy as possible.

They all thanked each other again.

Samantha and Cameron left.

John lay down and was sound asleep in three minutes. He was exhausted.

Cameron went with Samantha back to Riley's room. She collected Camille and returned Samantha to her post.

Riley heard them and came to look. She was still naked. She thought it was just Camille there with Precious. She was surprised to see 'two of Camille' and Samantha back. She quickly realized one was Cameron. She looked around but there was nothing to wear.

Cameron smiled at her.

"Don't worry about it." Cameron said. "You look beautiful. We were just leaving. Thank you for allowing me to borrow Samantha for her special assignment."

Cameron checked out every detail on Riley. She could see the fascination John felt for her. She was a shapely girl. She thanked Riley again and left with Camille.

Camille went with Cameron and they checked on Young Jesse.

"I want her to get caught up on her sleep." Cameron said.

They moved into Savannah's room.

Cameron was displeased to see Cammy with Savannah. She looked harder and noticed it was Ally. It displeased her even further.

Ally came out of standby and saw Cameron and Cammy there. She figured she was in trouble now. She looked harder and noticed it was actually Cameron and Camille.

She got up from the bed without disturbing Savannah.

"I wanted Savannah to have some comfort if she woke up." Ally said. "She's gone through a rough week. Cammy was tied up with Sheila so I stopped here. She's been asleep the whole time and we never did anything. She doesn't even know I'm here.

Cameron wasn't impressed.

"Take off." Cameron said.

Ally picked up her clothes and left naked with Camille.

"I can see I didn't impress Cameron any." Ally said.

Camille looked back at Savannah's room.

"I got booted too." Camille said.

Ally looked back as well. There were other options available to them.

"We can always hit my room." Ally said.

Camille and Ally were out of earshot of Cameron.

Ally could tell Camille wanted to say something.

"What's up?" Ally asked. "Is there something else?"

Camille looked around to make sure there was no one else who could hear them.

"What's the status on Riley?" Camille asked. "Is she still 'off limits'?"

Ally wasn't sure if 'off limits' was the right word. There was a lot behind everything. It all revolved around Cameron.

"I think so." Ally said. "She was before the trip."

Camille looked back. She'd shared a very pleasant time with Riley earlier.

"I like her." Camille said. "I'd like to be with her once."

Ally looked around. She understood what Riley wanted.

"She needs and wants a female lover." Ally said. "She's taboo to everyone around Cameron."

Camille wanted to make the most of her stay. She didn't want to make waves, but she wouldn't mind putting a few ripples in the pond. Young Jesse and her were on an unknown time clock.

"Well, if Young Jesse or I get a shot at her, I'm going to take it. We won't be here very long." Camille said. "I don't think it will hurt anything if we're not around afterwards."

Ally wanted to be blunt with her explanation.

"Jesse and Riley were hooked up for a bit before Cameron 'gave' Riley to Derek." Ally said. "She didn't want a repeat with what happened before with Future Riley."

Camille tilted her head slightly. It was a long time ago.

"Is it still an issue this many years later?" Camille asked.

Ally felt it was a 'no starter'. It seemed to be an obsession with Cameron.

"It is for Cameron. None of us wants to 'hurt' Cameron and be intimate with Riley." Ally said. "Even Savannah has kept her distance. We all feel bad for Riley."

Camille saw Riley seemed to manage pretty well with Derek earlier.

"I think she gets by OK." Camille said.

Ally opened her door and ushered Camille in. She was ready to get started.

"Now we'll get by OK for a few hours until everyone is up." Ally said.

Camille and Ally kissed.

"It works for me." Camille said.

Ally closed the door.


Cameron wanted Savannah to get a good night's rest. She was displeased Ally was in there naked, and in her bed.

She'd heard the reports about Savannah being abused physically on the missions. She looked at the sheet Ally left half off of Savannah when she got up. She'd been able to scan Vanna on the ship numerous times. She was in Hanna's chassis. She knew what everything was supposed to look like. She possessed past scans of Savannah naked.

Cameron lifted the sheet and looked at Savannah. Her left hand began to glitch immediately. It wasn't what she wanted to see. Savannah was a mess. There were dozens of bruises and contusions on her from her head to her toes.

Savannah obviously took a beating the last week in her absence. Maybe this was why she didn't want to be with John. It could be Savannah was too embarrassed by her appearance. Only someone from the future looked like she did.

Cameron carefully lowered the sheet and tucked Savannah in. She got her glitch under control and scanned Savannah. She wanted to make sure she was still pregnant with Vanna's baby. She was. It was probably because her body was in top physical condition. It wasn't any more. It was slowly getting battered.

She wanted to blame it on Cammy and CamNet. They were the ones who'd reported she was being abused. They were both unhappy with it as well. She was under the assumption CamNet and Savannah were together. It didn't please her at all. Savannah belonged to Young Allison, John and her. She wanted the same foursome Duplicate Cameron shared in her future. She wanted John protected. She wanted the love from all three of them. She was sure she wanted the love more then the sexual rewards.

Cameron carefully kissed Savannah on the cheek. She'd really wanted to kiss Savannah on the lips and have the kiss returned and expand from there.

"I'm sorry I wasn't here to help you this week." Cameron softly said. "You're more than special to me."

Cameron kissed Savannah's lips gently anyway. It was a loving gesture.

"I love you." Cameron said.

She brushed her tears away and headed outside. She really wondered what the full scope of the briefing would be later on. It was only in a few hours really. Maybe she should delay it so Savannah could get some more rest.

Cameron moved from room to room and checked on everyone. It was her responsibility to protect all of them. These were the people and machines she cared about. She liked the week of downtime, but not at Savannah's expense.

It wasn't her only worry. Young Allison was in combat several times. She was supposed to be with Young Allison when she faced combat for the first time. From what little she knew, Young Allison was on her own when it happened and when she took the fight to the enemy. She would learn the full story in a short while. Many details were suppressed from her. It was by Savannah's and Young Allison's request. Her girls watched out for her.

Summer was another worry. She was in it big time and directing John Henry and CamNet both at times. She'd cracked River's encryption and made calls for the use of maximum force more than once. They were measures no one else would take on their own except Young Allison. She'd 'made' Young Allison in her image and Young Allison 'made' Summer in her image. It was a violent circle of events.

John Henry and CamNet both questioned Summer's existence that she wasn't River or her sibling or clone or offspring somehow.

Cameron was upset by it. She'd never done it, yet. She could tell they all thought she did some temporal malpractice for her own benefit. Was Allison in every version really Claire's only child?

What if River really was Summer instead or Summer's clone or offspring? It was possible too.

What about the group of Grays who were from a further future than the Fanatics? What was the unknown technology all about? Where did it lead to? When did it lead to?

There was a lot they didn't know. There was so much to think about. There was so much to do. Skynet and every illegitimate offshoot of it needed to be terminated. There were millions of possibilities to contemplate. It was what she was doing right now.

"Are you OK?" Vanna asked.

Cameron blinked.

Vanna was there with Cam.

"I'm fine." Cameron said.

Vanna doubted it strongly. She was aware of Cameron's different moods.

"You don't look like it." Vanna said. "I need to tend to Precious. I'll come back to see you."

Cameron could see Vanna's love for her. It was there from the beginning and still there now. It was something she appreciated immensely. Vanna loved her when she was still trapped inside of the metal box. It was a very unpleasant place to be.

"I'm good." Cameron said.

Cam thought maybe she should stay with Cameron.

"I can stay with her." Cam said.

Cameron didn't want it to be an issue. It was no big deal.

"You can go with Vanna." Cameron said.

Vanna didn't want to make it into a problem right now. She would look Cameron up once she was done with Precious. She thought it was best to move along.

"Come on, Cam." Vanna said.

Cameron watched them walk away. Maybe she needed to wrap it up for the night. She should go back and lay with John. He needed his sleep so she would need to be careful not to wake him.

Maybe there was some target which developed. She could go strike it now instead. It would take the pressure off of everyone else. It would take the pressure off of her girls. She didn't know it was exactly what CamNet was doing now. It was for the very same reasons.

Cameron needed to keep it under control. She would get the full debriefing tomorrow, which was actually later on today.

She returned to her room and lay down next to John. She wasn't going to go into standby. She hadn't removed her clothes. John was pretty spent. She doubted there was going to be any sexually activity. She could please him just how she was. She could start him up and take him all the way. She could also have her pants off in seconds.

John began to snore. Cameron looked over at him. She always found it somewhat irritating when he did. She could turn her hearing off. It was what she did. Soon she could feel the vibration in his body on the bed with each snore. It irritated her too.

She realized it wasn't John who irritated her. It was her own thoughts and what she perceived as her own failures.

She got back up. Maybe she could go and lay next to Savannah herself. She could strip down and lay next to her. Maybe Savannah would think she was Cammy and kiss her. She decided against it. When she was with Savannah, she wanted her to be rested and at her best performance. She wanted Savannah to touch her because she knew it was her.

Cameron thought about going by to visit CamNet. She hadn't updated with her for awhile. She wouldn't allow CamNet to have her files of her using the other girl's chassis. She was sure CamNet was with Savannah. She wondered what else CamNet would keep from her. She was sure it was plenty.

Young Allison needed to come to the Resistance base later on. Maybe she should drive to Palmdale and pick her up. Anna could ride with the Detail. Young Allison and her could have a private talk about anything she wanted. She would encourage her to 'step up' and see what happened. If nothing else, it would prompt Savannah to act.

Wait.

What was she doing? She was still manipulating everyone.

She went back and checked on John. He was sound asleep. She left their quarters and decided to patrol the base.

She was very anxious and uneasy.

The image of Savannah haunted her. It bothered her more because Savannah never said a word and took the punishment. It would bother her more once she found out how far Savannah was willing to go on her own to carry out the mission. Savannah's level of commitment was really her fault. Savannah emulated her and her self destructive actions. She'd wanted to make her girls in her image. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all. They were willing to do everything she was willing to do. If the mission required they go all the way, they would.


The two men In the white van continued on their way. It didn't appear it was going to be a happy reunion back at their base. They didn't know they still were under surveillance from a drone as well as a Terminator. Right now they would act as a Pied Piper and lead the Terminator back to their lair.

The white van pulled into a parking lot. They drove thru the parking lot and came out on the other side. There were no other vehicles around them. We went down a side street and entered an industrial complex.


Earlier:

Tina and Lena wanted to finish their current assignment. CamNet dictated otherwise. They were a little surprised at the mode of transportation they were about to use. It was very unorthodox. They each climbed on top of a drone and it took off.

CamNet wanted them back in the vicinity of the female Fanatic. The opening to the mine was destroyed by actions taken by her. She wanted to know what was in the mine.

The ride atop the drones was quite spectacular. Since it was night time, they could operate at a much lower altitude. Their journey was fast to the location where they needed to go. They thought they should go directly to where the female Fanatic currently was. She was in pursuit, with her female accomplice, of a Gray who'd escaped the mine. It was only minutes before it exploded and collapsed the opening.

The drones passed over the small community at the crossroads junction. They also passed over a pickup truck driving at a high rate of speed. They were soon near the mine. The drones dropped down and landed on the dirt road which led from the highway to the mine. The two drones immediately took off. One of them would remain with them. The other one was sent to do reconnaissance at each of the locations where the female Fanatic had been previously.

It was clear the female Fanatic kicked the hornet's nest at multiple locations. She'd done a vast amount of damage on her own at targets which were unknown to the Resistance. More than likely there would be some follow up activity at some of the locations. The drone would be able to give them feedback on what needed to be done.

Lena and Tina watched the drones fly away. They weren't where they wanted to be.

"It looks like we just got dumped in the middle of nowhere." Lena said.

Tina hoped the drone over them would give them a ride when it was time to leave. The landscape they'd traversed to reach the mine was very beak.

"I think we should have been let off by where the female Fanatic is at instead." Tina said.

Lena agreed.

"It seems we're always on some type of a follow up or clean up duty after her." Lena said.

Tina hoped to be the one to terminate her.

"I will personally snap her neck." Tina said.

CamNet informed both of them it was time to get to work. She would provide transportation for them soon enough. They needed to do their inspection first.

The Metal girls looked over what was once the opening to the mine. They climbed up on top of the unstable rocks to look for any openings. None were spotted. The area was thoroughly sealed. The mountain side over the entrance was collapsed as well. It indicated it would take a lot of effort to re-enter the mine through its previous opening. The rocks and dirt above it would all be loose and unstable. If someone needed to enter the mine, it would have to be a different or new entrance.

CamNet informed them there would be a search later on for any air shafts which might afford another entrance into the mine. She wanted to know what was in there. The female Fanatic may have destroyed a few things, but she doubted all of them were destroyed. It was all equipment which would need to be reprogrammed to serve the Resistance at a future date. Even if it remained trapped inside of the mine for now, it would be protected for the future.

Lena and Tina were told to proceed out to the highway. There would be a truck along soon which they would need to stop and terminate the occupants. They were played various sound bites CamNet recorded along the way. They both determined the three men who were in the truck were future Scavengers.

They looked at the drone image above them. They could see the truck was a few miles out. They should soon be able to spot the headlights. The drone did a sweep of the area surrounding them. There are no other vehicles detected.

They were aware the female Fanatic and her accomplice terminated two men previously. More than likely it was for the same reason they were about to terminate the three men in the pickup. Remote areas seemed to possess a higher level of future Scavengers than urban areas did. It was probably because it was easier to cover up their dirty work. There was a lot of open space with no one paying attention to anything.

Lena could see the truck was only a mile away.

"How do you want to play this?" Lena asked. "Our goal is to terminate them and take their vehicle. It needs to remain undamaged."

Tina didn't see why the drone couldn't just fire a missile and destroy the truck. It could give them a ride closer to where the female Fanatic was at.

"I think we're wasting time." Tina said. "The female Fanatic is miles from here. It will take us a long time to catch up with her."

Lena agreed with her.

"We need to see how it plays out." Lena said. "I think we wasted enough time."

They needed to carry out CamNet's plan for now.

They moved out from the side of the road onto the highway. They expected the truck would stop for them. If it didn't, they would use their pistols and shoot out one tire. There should be a spare. When the men got out to confront them, they would be dealt with.

Tina and Lena could see the truck slow. It was going to stop. It stopped about twenty feet away from them. They remained where they were at. They wanted the men to get out of the truck. It would make their termination much simpler.


The three men in the pickup truck were about to stop. It looked like they were in for a good time. They stopped short of the two females by the side of the road. They were illuminated in the headlights.

"Do you want to take them with us, or take care of business out here?" The first man asked.

The second man wanted to take them with them. It would give him more time to fondle both of them as they drove. He liked to see the way they squirmed around when they were gagged and tied as he touched them. It excited him greatly.

"Let's tie them up." The second man said.

The third man didn't want to waste time.

"Let's just take care of business now." The third man said. "We can leave them where we found them."

The first man thought about it. If their vehicle was nearby or wrecked, it would work out just fine. They could even put them in the wreckage when they were done with them and burn everything. They might even kill them first.

"It's what we'll do." The first man said.

The second man was a little disappointed. He liked his private time with the females before the action started.

"Are we going to do it in the back of the truck?" The second man asked.

The third man thought it would probably be a good spot for at least one of them. It would be a little crowded with both of them in the back at the same time. Then again, it would be exciting as they watched the females reaction to what was happening with their friend right next to them. He was extremely excited by the thought. It's what they would do.

"We'll do both of them in the bed of the truck at the same time." The third man said.

The first man liked the idea. Normally it was only one female at a time. Two of them at once would add a new dimension to everything.

"It will be easier for us to switch." The first man said.

The second man wanted to make sure he got a turn as well.

"Don't forget about me." The second man said.

The third man wondered why the females were still standing in front of the truck. He thought they would walk back to where they were at. It appeared they were a little bit leery. They had good reason to be. They didn't know what was in store for them.

"I don't remember them looking as hot as they do." The third man said. "They're both fine looking."

The first man took in all the details.

"I don't think we've ever had anyone who looks so good, let alone two of them." The first man said.

The second man took in the details.

"One of them has a real set of jugs." The second man said.

The third man wanted to try to put on a good face for them.

"Let's ask if they need a ride or some other type of help." The third man said.

The third man got out of the truck.

"Hello." The third man said. "You look like you need some assistance."

Lena and Tina heard the entire conversation the men just had with each other. They needed to play it cool because they didn't want to damage the truck.

"Our car is right over here." Lena said. "I think you just need to give us a push to get us out of the ditch it's in. We couldn't do it ourselves."

The third man wanted them to remain by the truck.

"I'll go take a look. You two stay here where it's safe." The third man said. "There are all kinds of wild animals out here."

Lena and Tina walked back away from the road into the brush.

"It's right over here." Tina said. "Follow us."

The third man was upset they walked away.

"You can wait here." The third man said.

Lena and Tina continued walking.

The first and second man didn't like the turn of events.

"I think we should go out." The second man said. "I don't want them to get away. I like the one with the jugs."

The first man could tell the females were cautious.

"I'll go out." The first man said. "You stay here with the truck."

The second man didn't like to have to always wait behind. He watched the first man get out of the truck and follow after the third man and the two females.

"I want a turn too." The second man said.

The first man looked back, he was irritated. He hoped the females didn't hear what the second man just said. If they ran off into the brush at night and hid, it would be hard to track both of them down. They could probably get at least one of them. They would need to get the other one as well, otherwise she could identify them when they found the other female's body later on. Things hadn't played out as they'd anticipated they would.

The Metal girls weren't about to play any games. They were going to take care of business and take the truck. They knew two of the three men were following them.

"It's right over here." Lena said.

The first man was right behind Lena. It was almost impossible to keep up.

"Slow down. I can't see anything." The first man said.

Tina looked back at the third man.

"This part came off of the car when it stopped." Tina said.

The third man almost tripped over something. He wondered how the female could even see. He couldn't see much.

"Hold up." The third man said. "I need a flashlight."

The Metal girls were out of sight of the pickup truck. They didn't want the second man to drive away.

Lena and Tina stopped abruptly.

"It's right here." Lena said.

The first man looked around in the darkness. He didn't spot a vehicle.

"There's nothing here." The first man said.

The third man almost bumped into Tina when she'd stopped.

"I don't see a car." The third man said. "There isn't anything here."

Lena and Tina faced their potential attackers.

"This is it." Lena said. "It's your final resting place."

The two men began to sense something was wrong.

"What the Hell?" The third man asked.

Lena and Tina each reached out and grabbed one of the men as they attempted to pull out some type of weapons. A knife and a pistol fell to the ground as the men were lifted in the air by their necks. They couldn't scream nor could they breathe.

Both of their eyes glowed red.

"This is payback for all the female victim's you've abused." Lena said. "Now you know what it's like."

Tina was just as angry.

"You're going to get off lucky." Tina said. "You're not going to be abused before you're terminated. You're just going to be terminated."

Lena and Tina each flicked their wrist and snapped the man's neck they were holding. They drop the bodies to the ground, side by side.

Tina began to search the men.

Lena went back closer to the truck. She used the voice of the first man.

"You'd better take a look at this." Lena said.

She switched to the voice of the third man.

"Hurry up." Lena said.

The second man quickly got out of the truck.

"Where are you?" The second man asked.

Lena used the voice of the first man.

"I'm over here." Lena said.

The second man turned in the direction of the voice.

"Is it my turn already?" The second man asked. "You guys are even faster than I am."

The second man came face to face with Lena.

"It's your turn." Lena said. "Now you can join all your victims and suffer their same fate."

Even as the second man gasped for air, he made a mental note he was going to have to cut back on the drugs. He was pretty sure in the hallucination he was having, the female who lifted him in the air had eyes which glowed red. The darkness soon overtook him. It was eternal.

Lena dumped the body next to the other two. She quickly went through his pockets. They didn't come up with anything useful. They only recovered one firearm and two knives. They left the three men to the animals of the night. Somehow it seems fitting. Maybe they should have left one of them alive but securely tied.

They went back to the truck and made a U-turn. The drone over them didn't indicate any traffic around them. They started back towards the crossroads junction. It took them some time to get there. They stopped and filled up with fuel. They used the money they'd taken from the three dead men.

Lena and Tina were soon back on the road. It appeared as if there were developments taking place where the female Fanatic was at with the Gray.


Morning Soon Enough

Some find it easy to lie
They do it off of the cuff
They seem to lack
Having the right stuff

In an evolving relationship and future
They don't care what they snuff
They spew out half truths
They do it with slight and guff

One always wants to be
A little more than fluff
They don't want to be reduced to
A little more than scruff

Every step to move forward
Doesn't need a rebuff
No one wants another
To act out as they huff and puff

Go through the motions
Learn to hang tough
It will all end quickly
It will be morning soon enough

Nobody
