Chapter 1573
Lay Back And Relax
Ajax, a Skynet Terminator, didn't know what was happening. He knew the other facility had been attacked. Everyone there was terminated. There were also other facilities which had been attacked and taken down.
The first team which had been sent out with the two box trucks was supposed to retrieve the equipment from the boxcars. It was going to take a few trips to retrieve it all. Their building was considered a safer location. It was the reason why the equipment was to be moved there.
Unfortunately, none of the equipment made it. If some of it would have arrived, they would be able to activate it to help protect the facility. Perhaps the best thing to do at this juncture was to pull out. There was nothing of real value at the building.
Ajax decided to abandon the building. There were only half a dozen Grays there along with the other two at the location with the rail siding. He made one more attempt to check the railroad records to see when the boxcars were switched out. There was no record whatsoever. He even checked the personnel records to verify where the workers were at over the last few days. All of them were shown to operate from point A to point B. There'd been no local switching moves.
He divided the Grays into two groups of three. They each took a different vehicle. They were to go to the same location. They'd been instructed to take different routes and not communicate with each other, or anyone else, along the way.
CamNet's Terminator headed back towards the building where Ajax was at. He was almost to the location when the drone spotted two vehicles leave. The two vehicles separated from each other and appeared to go in opposite directions. The drone covering the building began to increase the size of its orbit to track them.
A short time later, Ajax left the building. He went in a third direction. The drone which had been with the Terminator was sent to go with Ajax. It soon became apparent Ajax was headed back towards the building with the rail siding. He probably wanted to see what happened to the two men inside, since he was unable to communicate with them.
CamNet's Terminator was directed to approach the building the three vehicles recently left from. All three of the vehicles were currently being tracked. He drove past the building several streets down from it. He would make his approach from the opposite direction of the building with the railroad siding.
He approached the building from the street behind it. The building diagonally across from it in the rear, was currently unoccupied. He entered the property and moved to the rear of it. He went over the fence in the corner where the four properties joined together. The drone images indicated there was nothing at the rear of the property. He didn't see anything outside, or up against the building under the overhang of the loading dock.
The drone alternated between the location where Ajax was headed, as well as the location where CamNet's Terminator was at. It currently had the building he approached locked up for a missile strike. It could also move into position for a gravity minigun strike with 'metal hail'.
CamNet's Terminator moved through the rear parking lot. He approached the building. So far there hadn't been any gunfire.
Ajax was on his way to building with railroad siding.
The female Fanatic and Jill quickly entered the vehicle as soon as the two men went inside of the mall. They were able to start it and drive away. Right now it was their turn to laugh.
"I didn't care for the way those two men acted." Jill said. "They seemed to be rather proud of what they did."
The female Fanatic couldn't really complain. They just stole their vehicle. She was fairly satisfied with what they did.
"What goes around, comes around." The female Fanatic said.
She couldn't help but think about all the death and destruction she'd unleashed. It was bound to come back around to her at some point.
Jill took one last look before they left the mall parking lot. They turned out onto the main street.
"Where are we headed to next?" Jill asked.
The female Fanatic didn't have a set target. There were locations she visited before which she could follow up on. There were also a few other ones she hadn't actually checked. She looked over at Jill.
"We could get a room for a few hours." The female Fanatic said. "It would allow us to get cleaned up properly and eat a decent meal."
Even as terrified as Jill was when the water started to submerge them earlier, she was pleased it washed some of the accumulated dirt and grime off of her. She also needed to consider the possibility she'd been exposed to some type of chemical mixed in with the water which was in the trench. With the volume of it, and the way it happened, it seemed unlikely. Nonetheless, it was still a possibility.
"I'd like to do it." Jill said.
The female Fanatic drove out of the area where they'd stolen the car. They drove about five miles away before they spotted a Hotel Six. She drove around to the back of the building so the car wasn't in plain view of the street.
"Let me go inside and get a room." The female Fanatic said.
Jill briefly wondered if Jackie was going to dump her. She didn't think so.
"I spotted a couple of fast food places as well as a restaurant from a big chain." Jill said. "Which one would you like to go to?"
The female Fanatic would like to do a sit down meal. She hadn't done very many of those since she'd been in the past, the present.
"I think we can take it easy and get a real meal." The female Fanatic said. "I should probably get something with vegetables as well as a salad."
Jill liked the idea.
"It sounds good to me." Jill said.
The female Fanatic looked over at Jill.
"Come on. Let's go to the lobby together." The female Fanatic said.
The two females entered the lobby of the Hotel Six. The desk clerk was a male in his late forties or early fifties. He took a moment to give them a long 'once over'. It made both of them feel a little uncomfortable.
"Are you girls visiting from out of town?" The clerk asked.
The female Fanatic didn't want to give out much information.
"We're here on business." The female Fanatic said. "We just need a room."
The desk clerk looked a little upset with her rebuff. He went over the rules and the cost involved.
They asked for a room on the first floor. There was one in the back near the rear exit. It seemed perfect for their needs. They decided to pay for the room in advance. If they needed to leave early, they would just leave the key in the room and close the door behind them.
The female Fanatic and Jill left the lobby area. They headed down the hall to an intersection. They followed the sign which indicated the room numbers.
Lena and Tina continue to follow the progress of the white van from the drone above it at altitude. So far they hadn't been able to determine a destination.
There'd been no communications from the white van since the drone picked it up.
"I'm surprised at the lack of communication." Tina said.
Lena was sure it was because more than one white van already disappeared. They'd been responsible for a few of them.
"They must know they're being watched." Lena said.
Tina thought about the next part of the equation. It wasn't a good thought.
"It seems most likely they would attempt to lead someone into an ambush." Tina said.
Lena already considered the prospects.
"I agree." Lena said. "Since we can track them with a drone, there's no need for us to get within visual range of them."
Tina thought about the drone.
"You don't think there's some way they can track the drone do you?" Tina asked.
CamNet contacted them as soon as the question was asked. She told them no one was tracking any of the drones currently out on operations. She was in control of every radar system there was in the area.
Lena wondered if it might not be a little more sinister.
"What happens if someone has a localized radar of some sort." Lena asked. "There are ways, other than radio waves, to track an object."
Tina worried about the same thing. Her worry went a step further.
"If they do have some clandestine way to actually track it, the prospect needs to be considered they can track the communications from it." Tina said. "They all lead back to one place."
CamNet relayed all of her communications through different stations. Nothing was a direct link. There was currently a temporal mission she'd carried out for some of the other Resistance members. It involved the two Skynet Terminators captured earlier in the morning by the Resistance team at the hillside location. She didn't believe any of her activity was monitored or tracked by anyone. She reassured Lena and Tina.
Lena and Tina continued to track the white van. Their main concern was if someone wanted to lure them into an ambush. It was always a real possibility.
John Henry edited the video logs and reports to cut the involvement by Young Allison and Summer to a minimum.
CamNet assisted him. Perhaps a better way to term it was, he went along with what CamNet did. He still didn't know the extent of all the activity which took place around the base and in John's room. CamNet kept it from him too.
He detected the use of Cameron's TDE at her base. When he contacted CamNet as to the nature of the temporal activity, he was told not to worry about it.
He was also a little concerned to learn both Jesse and Vanna were away from the base, as well as all of the female Terminators. It was all highly unusual.
It seemed there were a lot of things going on he didn't know about.
Previously:
Brian and Randy left off the HK drone they'd collected from the dry riverbed at a remote location for inspection. They were to return the helicopter and go back to Palmdale and resume their duties on Young Allison's protection detail.
CamNet received a new 'request' indirectly from Savannah. She decided to act on it. She planned to take advantage of what was suggested as well.
Brian and Randy could take care of something else for her before they returned to Palmdale. They let the HK drone off and picked up the male and female Terminator which Young Jesse deactivated. They were loaded onto the UH-1 and sent to Cameron's base after they'd been inspected for anything which could track them. They were clean.
CamNet was a little concerned about Precious. She decided to collect some of the girls from the 727. It was still sitting on the runway at the regional airport. She sent Brian and Randy to retrieve them once they let off the captured male and female Terminators.
The Terminators at Cameron's base waited for the two deactivated Terminators. They began 'modifications' immediately when they arrived.
CamNet removed two of the chips from the box of four which Savannah gave to her. She looked at them, and then put them back. Savannah did it for her. If she wanted to do something different, she needed to do it on her own. It wasn't a problem. She asked a Terminator to bring her two clean chips from the inventory. She copied her program to them, part of it anyway.
She then gave them back to one of her Terminators to install in the two deactivated chassis. They were both infused with new DNA and sent on a temporal mission. They were sent into the past for two weeks and returned thirty seconds after they'd left in real time. The female Terminator was sent into the past a second time for a week and returned thirty seconds later.
They were both on their way to see her in person now.
The girls on the executive transport wrapped things up with a massive sharing session. It was a 'free for all', with random partners every few minutes.
The human females were all tired out. There hadn't been much sleep for any of them to begin with. The physical sexual activity took its toll. One thing there was plenty of was sex, with a lot of finishes to go around.
Mary wanted to compare all the girls who looked the 'same'. Everyone was in a playful mood so they did it.
Jesse, Young Jesse and Sheila stood together. Hanna and Vanna stood side by side. Allison stood in the middle and Ally stood on her right side. Cammy, Camille and Cam all lined up on her left side. Holly, Gail and Samantha all stood together. They were unique, well, Gail and Holly were. They were also Restorators by construction.
Mary, Laura and Leticia looked at each group.
"Does anyone care to explain this for real to us?" Mary asked. "I think we've earned it in more ways than one. We did enter the battle zone."
Leticia already figured it out with Sheila's help. She remained silent.
Laura remembered what she read on the internet before the article 'disappeared'.
"I think we all know some of you are human and some are 'something else', even if you seem human to us." Laura said. "By your abilities and actions, we know you're superior to a human."
Cammy was a little leery about where the conversation would go. The fact she was able to get John to be with the three girls from the ship was all that mattered to her. She wanted to rub Cameron's face in it. The fact John was with all the Metal girls on top of it all, was just a bonus. She wanted to give the girls something to think about.
"I think you all know anyone who's ever spoken of what you think, has ended up in the nut house, the state mental institution." Cammy said. "They're all still there too. They'll never let them out. It isn't by random chance either."
The implication was their group was able to keep them there to further make sure no one would believe them.
Mary knew the group could pull off a lot of things.
"It's probably the work of the 'super computer'." Mary said.
Cammy wanted her to think about a few more things.
"You need to consider the possibility there may be more than one of those, and not all of them are friendly towards humans." Cammy said. "Some might be a little more willing to 'tie up' loose ends permanently."
Mary, Laura and Leticia all looked at each other. It seemed they were associated with one which was friendly towards humans, or everything wouldn't have happened and continued to happen.
They looked at Allison and Ally.
"You two look identical in your appearance and manner." Mary said. "You're the same in bed too."
Mary looked at Cammy, Camille and Cam.
"You three look like Allison, but always look perfect. You're different in manner as well. All three of you are identical in everything you do." Mary said. "You all look like 'Barbara', but none of you are her. It means there are more of you. The question is, how many?"
It didn't appear anyone wanted to elaborate. There were two Duplicate Camerons in two different futures, and two additional clones 'in some future'. Then there were two Duplicate Allisons, Future Allison, River and Metal Summer. There was also Young Allison.
The girls moved on to Hanna and Vanna.
Vanna wanted to stay out in front of things.
"I have nursing breasts and a nasty scar." Vanna said. "Hanna is perfect. I think it says a lot without needing to say much."
It was clear to all of them Vanna was human and Hanna was not.
They moved over to Sheila, Jesse and Young Jesse.
Young Jesse wanted to address the current round.
"You believe what you think you know. You can see what my relation is to Jesse." Young Jesse said. "It also shows the nature of Sheila, whose body is identical to mine, but she looks like Jesse, or a little older than me."
Laura had seen quite a bit in the last few days. There was only one way to explain some of what she witnessed.
"As impossible as it is, we're looking at the reality of it all." Laura said. "I think it's safe to say time travel is possible. You and Jesse are the same person."
Mary, Laura and Leticia all watched Jesse and Young Jesse share. It was clear they were the same person from two different time periods. They all wished they could be with a younger version of themselves.
"I envy your ability to be able to share with yourself." Leticia said. "It's not just with someone who looks like you either, but actually yourself."
Mary thought about it.
She looked at Vanna and Allison. She glanced at Jesse and Young Jesse. It hit her like a sledgehammer.
"Oh my God…." Mary said. "There are younger versions of both of you too I bet!"
Allison didn't want to get specific.
"It's a pretty safe bet." Allison said. "You won't see them doing anything like this for a few years."
Mary thought about it.
"They are even younger than Jesse is." Mary said. "I mean the younger Jesse."
Vanna figured Savannah would want to be with the girls from the ship too, especially since Young Jesse was. She didn't want to deny her the opportunity.
"One of them is. One is not." Vanna said.
Laura thought about her statement. It was clear the team was busy.
"She must be on a mission." Laura said.
Leticia thought about 'Barbara' not being there. There was now a logical explanation as to why she wasn't.
"I bet it's with Barbara." Leticia said.
The girls moved over and looked at Samantha.
"We were with Claire earlier, and now you're here. You two look identical, right down to the jewelry." Mary said.
Samantha smiled. She wanted to give them something to think about.
"I've only looked like this for less than a week." Samantha said.
Laura wondered what it meant.
"Do you mean with the rings?" Laura asked.
Samantha tugged on them.
"Those happened in the last few days." Samantha said. "Claire wanted to see how she would look, so I tried a pair for her. She went with the look after she checked me out."
Mary liked the look.
"It's a good look." Mary said.
The three girls moved over to Holly and Gail.
"You two are different from anyone." Laura said.
Holly and Gail looked at each other.
"We came from a different – place." Holly said.
Gail looked a little sad.
"We don't know where our counterparts are in this time period or our own." Gail said.
Leticia thought about it.
"Are you from a different future?" Leticia asked.
Mary needed to mull her statement over.
"Is that possible?" Mary asked. "I mean, two different futures?"
Cammy didn't want to get specific.
"Theoretically, if someone were to change the past, there would be a different future." Cammy said. "Depending on what was done when, or redone, it might create multiple futures. Each of those futures might also try and change things."
Laura was a little worried.
"There could be more of us, or none of us, depending on what someone did from 'a future', in the past." Laura said.
Mary remembered the article Laura read to her.
"This all goes back to the 'evil' super computer I bet." Mary said.
Vanna wanted to get away from the whole subject.
"You never know who's behind the curtain." Vanna said.
Allison looked at Vanna.
"Or how many curtains there are to look behind." Allison said.
Jesse wanted her two cents in.
"Or how many more new curtains there will be than there were before." Jesse said.
The Resistance girls all received an update from the Command Center. It was actually from CamNet.
"It appears some of us need to attend to our duties." Vanna said. "These nursing breasts aren't just for 'fun'."
The girls formed up with their Metal lovers. Allison, Holly, Vanna, Cam, Jesse, Gail and Samantha all got dressed.
Young Jesse and Camille wondered what the other girls were going to do. She knew Savannah was still busy. She thought about going to see Young Allison. She was a little worried 'things' could get carried away. It was clear Young Allison needed 'more' and Savannah wasn't listening.
"I'm free." Young Jesse said. "I only arrived in the states the day the ship left San Francisco."
Camille came over and took her arm.
"I did too." Camille said. "We were Down Under."
Young Jesse giggled.
"We spend a lot of time there." Young Jesse said. "We're 'down under' a lot Down Under."
Her statement brought a round of laughter.
It left Hanna, Ally, Sheila and Cammy free as well.
"I better go back and see Claire." Hanna said.
Allison wanted to mess with the girls some.
"I'm sure my mother has found other things to keep her busy." Allison said.
Mary, Laura and Leticia looked at each other. Allison and Claire looked around a similar age to all of them.
"Is Claire really your mother?" Mary asked. "I thought she was your sister."
Laura was just as amazed.
"You're about the same age." Laura said.
Leticia did the math.
"I think you came back from about twenty years in the future, when you first arrived." Leticia said.
Cammy didn't want to go there.
"Let's not worry about any of it." Cammy said. "Everything is what it is."
Sheila wanted some action.
"Let's worry about where we can go instead." Sheila said.
Ally looked around the jet.
"We can fly anywhere a few thousands miles from here." Ally said.
Young Jesse wanted to see Las Vegas. She knew Savannah didn't like it there. Maybe she could go while Savannah was 'busy' elsewhere.
"We could hit 'Sin City'." Young Jesse said.
Sheila smiled.
"Everywhere I go is 'Sin City'." Sheila said.
Ally remembered the trouble they'd experienced there before.
"We've run into some bad luck there." Ally said.
Sheila saw it differently.
"It wasn't us who ended up with the bad luck." Sheila said.
Cammy remembered what happened.
"It wasn't our doing." Cammy said. "We did take care of it though."
Ally nodded.
"Damn straight." Ally said. "The Syndicate picked the wrong group to fool with."
Camille moved her mouth close to Young Jesse's ear.
"Too many of us will look the same." Camille whispered.
Young Jesse frowned. She looked disappointed.
"Maybe I can go some other time." Young Jesse whispered.
Hanna and all the other Metal girls heard what was whispered. She thought she could offer a solution which would work on several levels. She went over to Camille and Young Jesse.
"I can trade chassis with Camille if you both agree." Hanna whispered. "Claire would get a kick out of me looking like 'Cameron'. We all share anyway. It's no big deal."
Camille didn't think Hanna would abuse her chassis and she wasn't about to abuse Hanna's chassis.
"I'm in if it's what Jesse wants." Camille whispered.
Young Jesse was in love with Vanna and Savannah. Camille in Hanna's chassis would be hot. It would really give her an opportunity to examine some specific things like she never was able to do before. Camille was open to anything she wanted. There was definitely going to be a closer look at Hanna's sheath.
"I'd really appreciate it if you don't mind." Young Jesse whispered.
Hanna wanted to make sure Claire got more than 'Cameron'.
"You two can pay Claire and me a 'special visit' when you return." Hanna said. "Everyone will be happy. We can switch our chassis back afterwards."
Mary, Laura and Leticia wondered what was going on.
"What are you three conspiring about?" Mary asked.
Young Jesse wanted to mess with them.
"We were discussing if we could sell you three into the sex slave trade when we hit Vegas. It would give us some gambling money." Young Jesse said. "It should be enough cash to get us started."
All the Resistance girls laughed.
Mary, Laura and Laura didn't laugh. They all showed worried looks. They were afraid of something like that. They'd all wondered at some point if they would be killed. They didn't think so anymore, but it was still a thought.
Samantha took Hanna and Camille into one of the bedrooms with Young Jesse. They would conduct the chip swap in there. They went to work. Young Jesse did the actual swap. Samantha handled the cutting and stitching. It was to ensure the girls healed faster.
Sheila took Leticia's arm. She didn't want her to worry.
"Not on my watch." Sheila said.
Leticia smiled and pulled close to Sheila. She felt protected with her.
Ally reached for Mary.
Cammy cut her off and took Mary's arm
"We like our new friends." Cammy said.
Mary felt safe with Cammy. She drew closer too.
Ally took Laura's arm.
"I think we can all share." Ally said.
Laura moved closer to Ally.
Mary felt relieved.
"Here I thought you were going to kill us." Mary said.
Cammy thought about the three girls being with John. It was her doing. Cameron would kill them if anyone was going to.
"We won't." Cammy said.
The human girls all laughed. The Metal girls didn't. None of them knew how Cameron would react.
They could hear the sound of a helicopter landing.
They all looked out the windows.
"Our ride is here." Samantha said.
Mary saw the helicopter looked different from the other two they'd seen.
"There's a different helicopter." Mary said. "How many do you have?"
Cammy wanted to brush it off.
"We can get whatever we need." Cammy said. "I'd say most of the time it's the case anyway."
Money, or monetary based items, could obtain a lot of things. Sometimes it couldn't. More drastic measures were necessary. As Terminators, they could be very 'persuasive' when they needed to be. Things didn't usually end well for the person who needed persuasion.
They watched the UH-1 land.
Young Allison looked at Anna.
"I want my temporal mission." Young Allison said. "I want it now. I can't wait any longer. I need 'more'."
Anna could see this wasn't a good time for Young Allison. Maybe it was her fault for what they'd done earlier. She'd really stimulated her. She wanted to throw something out there to put the brakes on everything. She didn't know if it would or not.
"We can discuss this with Savannah and Cameron when they get back." Anna said.
Young Allison knew about them too. She was a little concerned they might get lost in each other's company.
"You mean, if they get back." Young Allison said.
Anna knew Cameron would be tempted to want more. She felt Savannah would hold her in check.
"Savannah will do what is right." Anna said. "Cameron will listen to her."
Young Allison calmed down a little. She was still a little traumatized by her dreams. She really didn't know where they came from. It was time to get the show on the road.
"I need to get up." Young Allison said.
Anna touched her night clothes.
"You feel a little damp." Anna said.
Young Allison wanted a little more.
"I'll take a shower again, if you will." Young Allison said.
Anna expected as much. She was open to the idea. She wanted to get as much out of it for Young Allison's benefit as possible. It would also indirectly benefit her.
"If you eat a balanced meal for lunch and dinner I might." Anna said. "You also need to restrict your involvement for two days with Resistance matters. John is back and he needs to do his job. You need your sleep."
Young Allison giggled. She didn't feel she was the one who neglected her duties.
"Maybe he should do his job since he's 'done' everyone else." Young Allison said.
Anna didn't want to go there. She knew Young Allison would be in John's bed soon enough.
"It's not our concern." Anna said.
Young Allison felt it was. It seemed to be more a matter of perspective, even if it wasn't. There was a lot there for her to think about. She didn't want to be compared to others. It was going to happen at some point. The others all possessed more experience than she did. She didn't have any.
"I think it is, when your older self, and mother, have both been there." Young Allison said. "I wonder how I'll compare to either of them."
Anna didn't want it to happen, but knew it was inevitable.
"It won't happen anytime soon." Anna said.
Young Allison felt it would. She believed events were unpredictable, even if some of them were.
"I bet it will be sooner than you think." Young Allison said.
Young Allison stripped off her night clothes.
Anna did the same.
They entered the bathroom together. Anna ran the water and tested it. She saw the way Young Allison looked at her.
"Don't get carried away, or I won't do this again." Anna said. "Don't forget the strict rules you've laid down."
Young Allison was just happy to be next to Anna naked.
"I won't." Young Allison said.
Anna doubted it.
"We'll see." Anna said.
John collected everyone from his parent's room. Derek and Riley waited for them up the hall. John and Jan both looked at Precious.
"Can I hold her?" Jan asked.
Kyle wanted Jan to eat first.
"When you're done with your breakfast you can ask." Kyle said.
Riley would take all the help she could get.
"I don't mind." Riley said. "Precious may be a little fussy. I needed to bottle feed her."
John was a little concerned. He wondered where the other girls were at.
"What happened to Jesse or Vanna?" John asked.
Riley asked John Henry earlier.
"The Metal girls, and most of the other girls, are out." Riley said.
John thought about what he'd done on the jet at the airport. He figured everyone wanted a 'crack' at the girls from the ship. He sure wanted another round. Now he came up with an excuse to check on them.
"I'm sure they'll be back soon." John said. "I'll look into it."
John thought about allowing Sheila and Ally to bring their 'new friends' to the base. He would make an unspoken agreement with them, as long as he could have a crack at one or more of them, if Cameron wasn't around. He thought they were all Hot and they were good in bed too. All the girls were.
He'd really missed out on a lot of loving all these years because he'd been worried about Cameron. She'd told him all along to 'tap' everything. Well, there were a few more Metal girls to 'harvest' and give them their 'first time' like Cameron promised them. He planned to do it as soon as he saw any of them. He figured Cam was 'more of the same'. Samantha would be like Claire. It was Gail he wanted to 'meat'. She was the biggest on the top and the smallest on the bottom. He really liked those attributes. He'd tried Cameron in Gail's chassis, now he wanted Gail.
"…John…?" Derek asked.
John blinked. He'd been lost in thought over who he'd plow next.
"That's fine." John said.
Derek and Kyle looked at each other.
"You don't mind if we run down the group who tagged us?" Derek asked.
John wondered what he'd responded to now.
"A recon with a few Terminators is fine." John said. "You know combat isn't allowed."
John looked back to see where Riley was at. She was with Jan and Precious. It was why they'd asked him the question. Since Cameron wasn't around, maybe he could get a little more out of it himself. There wouldn't be anyone to put the brakes on his actions. There sure hadn't been anyone to put the brakes on his actions in the bedroom.
"Maybe I'll go out with you." John said.
Kyle wasn't so sure about it. He knew it was always a problem when John did. Even if Cameron wasn't there currently, she would know about it soon enough.
"It might not go over so well." Kyle said.
John figured with all the females he'd been with, a few things weren't going to go over well.
"It's how it is sometimes." John said.
Everyone always understood there were limits to what they did. Whether they'd actually adhered to them or not was a different story. It seemed to be when any of them could get away with a little more, they did. It seemed to be human nature.
Savannah and Cameron alternated between the suite and the scenery.
Cameron wanted to share more with Savannah, but she was a little beat.
Savannah wanted to share equally with Cameron and didn't like to just have Cameron 'service' her. She did like it, but she wanted to be fair.
Cameron wanted more. She couldn't get enough of Savannah. To view everything in the daylight stimulated her greatly.
"I want you to just lay back and relax." Cameron said. "I want to please you."
Savannah was a little worried Cameron was fixated on her private areas. Cameron continually touched her and tried to stimulate her. She didn't think anyone, including herself, touched and fondled things so often and repeatedly.
"OK." Savannah said. "I know what you want. I don't want you to do more than what a human female could do."
Cameron was worried it would limit her ability.
"I can do a lot more than that." Cameron said.
Savannah was only human. She needed to remind Cameron.
"You need to remember I'm human." Savannah said. "Everything is already a little expanded from all the activity. There's a lot of blood engorging the 'tissue'."
Cameron looked closer. Maybe she did overdo it. She figured she'd better cut back some, or Savannah wouldn't want her to use the male chassis later on. She already knew she would need to limit its performance to an extent which didn't exceed 'human performance'. She had plenty of experience from John to rely on. She hoped to do better than a thirty second, to a two minute, finish for Savannah. She really didn't know what was going to happen with her 'first time' in a male chassis. She was already very excited to just think about it
She looked up along Savannah belly through the valley of her breasts to her beautiful face. She understood some discretion and control was necessary if things were going to progress further in an even better direction. Well, she wasn't so sure the direction would be better. It was certainly going to be different.
"Would you like to watch the scenery for a while?" Cameron asked.
Cameron's words, and the change in direction, reminded her of the time she'd asked young Marty Bedell if he wanted her to read him a bedtime story….

Cameron didn't believe the lead locomotive would reach them for more than a minute. They were inside Tunnel 26.
She could hear and feel the rumble of the engines, as well as the high pitched whirling of the turbochargers. The sound level was very loud as the four cycle locomotives worked hard. She took a quick glance around the edge of the alcove. The locomotive was almost to where she was at. She could see there was already a thick dark cloud. The whine of the electric traction motors was very loud as well. They were being taxed to pull the heavy load up the grade.
"The first locomotive is almost here." Cameron said.
Young Allison remained within the alcove. All of a sudden the locomotive was even with her. The cab was past her in a second. She took a deep breath. She took a second deep breath to force more air into her lungs. The dark cloud enveloped her a fraction of a second later. She could tell the lead locomotive was working very hard. The one behind it didn't have any sound at all. It was dead. The third and fourth locomotives went by just as fast. Both of them were working. They sounded to be in a little better condition than the first and second locomotives were. They were still working very hard.
There was a group of boxcars behind the locomotives. They were followed by two gondola cars. From ground level, there was no way to tell what was in them. They could have been empty. There was another string of boxcars.
The thick cloud of smoke thinned slowly. The 'wind' the train created, sucked most of it along with it. The air quality improved dramatically in less than a minute.
Young Allison felt a little more comfortable. She slowly let out the air in her lungs. She took another small breath as she bent down low above the ground in the safety alcove. She only coughed a couple of times.
Cameron occasionally took a look out from the safety alcove. She wanted to monitor the progress of the train.
"I can see the caboose." Cameron said. "It will be by us in approximately twenty three seconds."
Young Allison watched the train from the back of the safety alcove. She'd still needed to take a few breaths as the train passed. She'd pulled her shirt up over her face as she did. She spotted some cars carrying automobiles. They were three levels high. The last one was only two levels high and carried pickup trucks. They were all open without any type of protective covers as they'd have later on. The caboose was by them a second later. She cautiously looked around the direction the train had come from, and in the direction it was going. The light from the portal lit up the Daylight Orange end of the caboose, along with the angled edges of the bay window.
She could see the air was still a little cloudy. She was ready to move on.
"Let's get crackin'." Young Allison said.
Cameron took a look in both directions as well. It appeared as if the train would make it through the tunnel without stalling. She figured the train would probably be able to make it as far as the next crew change point. It was mostly flat land. It would probably be Santa Barbara. They might even leave the locomotives on until they reached San Luis Obispo. They were going to need to add additional power anyway to make it up Cuesta Grade. There were also a handful of tunnels located through the hills there.
She decided to take the lead.
"Follow me." Cameron said as she immediately started out.
Young Allison fell in line behind her. They were able to exit the eastward facing portal of Tunnel 26 approximately three minutes later.
She moved to the south side of the track as soon as they were out. She needed to stay clear of the water running out of the tunnel. She took several deep breaths. She could still tell there were pollutants in the air but not as extreme as they'd been inside of the tunnel.
"It was a reminder as to how dangerous it is to work in the railroad industry." Young Allison said.
Cameron agreed. She tilted her head slightly. She could hear gunfire. She knew it was from the Sports Center, which would later become Chatsworth Park South.
Young Allison heard it as well.
"I guess we won't be going down the same way we did yesterday." Young Allison said. "The Sports Center is open."
Cameron originally intended to give the Colt Single Action Army to the attendant there. She decided she was going to keep it for now after her quick draw adventure with the stuntman on the Iverson Movie Ranch.
She was ready for a little more. She wondered if maybe she should write a few movie scripts. It wouldn't take her long. She could write one about a theme park where patrons could interact with Western characters. The Western characters could be mechanical. They would appear like humans. She could leave copies of the script around for some of the producers to find. Maybe one of them would work on producing a movie or television series about it. Right now she was satisfied she was the fastest gun in the West. She needed to refocus.
"We can go by there another day." Cameron said. "We can go up through the rocks here and look down on the Spahn Movie Ranch. It's located between the hill and Santa Susana Pass Road. It's literally right on the other side of the hill where we're at.
Young Allison looked up at the rock face. It was very steep and straight up in several places.
"I take it we're going to take a different route up." Young Allison said.
Cameron pointed to the south side of Tunnel 26.
"We need to go up on the outside of the hill here and then up across the top. it won't take us long." Cameron said. "If you don't feel up to it, we can just continue along the tracks and pass through Tunnel 27.
Young Allison could see the western portal of Tunnel 27. It was the curved tunnel. She looked up at the rocks next to them.
"Let's give the Spahn Movie Ranch a 'once over' from the crest of this hill." Young Allison said.
Cameron led the way.
"Follow me." Cameron said. "I'll keep the pace moderate. We don't need to push it for anything."
They moved a little to the south and started up along the side of the hill. The gunfire was very evident at the Sports Center.
"I hope no one over there decides to take a shot at us." Young Allison said. "We might be a more enticing target than one of the clay pigeons."
Cameron looked over in the direction of the Sports Center. It was doubtful any of the bird shot would be able to reach them from the location.
"If anyone does, I'll take a shot at them." Cameron said. "The difference is, I'll actually be able to hit them."
Young Allison didn't doubt Cameron one bit.
Cameron and Young Allison were soon over the top of Tunnel 26 and still going up. They still had a way to go over the very rocky terrain.
Lay Back And Relax
Some people want too much
They push things to the max
Nothing is ever actually free
There's always some type of tax
There are more than a few
Who like to grind an axe
They should be more concerned
With their own acts
Not everything can be polished
With a wash and a wax
It doesn't take much
To get the train off the tracks
Communication isn't always easy
There can be an issue with syntax
It can open a fissure
It can widen the cracks
Stick around and enjoy life
The finish is the climax
The ride has just begun
Lay back and relax
Nobody
