AN:
Kate Connor is played by Claire Danes
Blair Williams is played by Moon Bloodgood
You can thank the reviewer Anime for getting this chapter so soon. This chapter was originally betaed by my friend Chris (Pyrgus, author of Lucky Harry). Take special note of who I have playing Kate Connor. I liked Claire Danes better as Kate Connor from the third Terminator movie rather than who they chose to play her in T4.
End AN
When Harry opened his eyes, he found himself buried in mud and gore as the radiation from a recently detonated nuke permeated the air around him. As soon as his nanites came online, the deity noticed that his new body wasn't entirely flesh and blood, but a relatively advanced android. Putting that aside for now, the fey phased through the ground and flew up to the surface. When the wizard touched down, he found himself surrounded by several large satellite dishes, the corpses of quite a few humans, and several lethal looking robots.
When Harry checked the memories of the destroyed machines, he found orders from a primitive AI but intelligence that had managed to wipe the machine's quantum cores of any knowledge of their origins. The Potter male couldn't track the machines from their memory, not that he needed to. The magician's ship in orbit was already picking up stations filled with these machines all over the Earth, a post nuclear war Earth. The sex god could also detect human life signs when he scanned deep enough. It didn't take a genius to figure out that the machines and the hidden pockets of humans were at war. The adventurer decided to search out the nearest pocket of human life and get some more answers. The closet place happened to be in LA, or what was left of it.
Harry cloaked himself and lifted into the air. As the mage flew towards LA at a moderate speed, he took the time to review his counterpart's memories. The well traveled sorcerer recognized the body he was in. The enchanter's new form was the same as the body of one Jake Sully from his Avatar Reality home. This version of Jake was named Marcus Wright and had been executed in Longview State Correctional Facility in 2003 after having been convicted of killing two cops in a high speed car chase which also resulted in the death of Marcus' brother. Marcus had been ready to die when he signed the papers to donate his body to science.
"It figures Bella's double would do the deed," Harry mused aloud with a wry smile on his face as he flew facing the heavens.
Dr. Serena Kogan had been the one to turn Marcus into a cyborg after his death and also happened to be Bellatrix Lestrange's counterpart in this reality. Harry could sense the upgrades made recently to his android body. The year was 2018, fifteen years after Marcus' apparent death. The formerly executed prisoner's organic tissues had been upgraded while the implants Serena had put in so long ago had been taken to the next level. Still, the genius Potter male found the technology primitive compared to his usual standards. The primitive form wouldn't pass many tests the humans of this world would probably have to detect androids in disguise.
"Aristotle…give me more nanites," Harry commanded.
"Yes sir," the young god's replicat companion answered before flying close enough to touch and began flooding nanites from his collar pocket dimension into the wizard's body.
Harry commanded the nanites to remake his being. The flesh and blood parts remained the same for the most part but the inner core, the android parts; they became liquid nanites which could harden into any larger machine or shape just like a replicator or constructor.
LA…
Harry touched down in LA while allowing himself to become visible. The deity had almost forgotten to put on some clothes, having awoken in the mud naked. Willing the nanites in his body to shift into a set of clothes with a trench coat duster big enough to hide a sword in, the immortal made his way into the ruined town. The young god noticed immediately the humanoid robot carrying a Gatling gun at the end of the street.
"Hey ugly," Harry shouted.
The creature turned and began to fire. The agile warrior easily sidestepped the shots before whipping a shot gun out of his coat. At this distance a normal shotgun would have almost no effect on a human, let alone a machine. This was no ordinary shotgun. It was a plasma weapon. Harry took aim and pulled the trigger. The engineer watched the golden plasma round exit the barrel of his weapon before crossing the intervening distance in a matter of milliseconds and taking the robot's head off.
"Holy shit," came the voice of a young man from the side.
"Who might you be?" Harry inquired as he put the gun back in his coat.
"Kyle, Kyle Reese," answered the young man, barely out of his teens.
"Hello Kyle. I'm Marcus. Perhaps you can enlighten me as to what the hell is going on around here. I just woke up from a very long sleep and don't quite seem to remember what's going on," requested the scientist while speaking calmly.
Kyle pulled a shotgun from his shoulder and pointed it at the mage in response.
"What do you mean sleep? Everybody knows what the hell is going on. You better come up with a better answer than that," Kyle shouted the last part.
Kyle had made the mistake of getting close enough for Harry to reach out quickly and grab the barrel of the young survivor's shotgun. The warlock pulled the gun out of Kyle's hands.
"If you pull a gun on somebody you better be prepared to use it," Harry informed Kyle. "Now what the hell was that thing?"
"Terminator…T600," answered Kyle.
"And the year?" The fey prompted, wanting to emphasize he wasn't lying.
"2018…after Judgment Day," Kyle replied. "Where are you headed?"
"Wherever there are more humans who are fighting these sons of bitches," was the enchanter's response while noticing the young black girl peeking out from behind a nearby wall.
"You can't go on foot but you want the Resistance. There are some cars by Griffith Observatory but they don't run," Kyle explained.
Just then Kyle heard the aircraft Harry had been able to hear for several minutes approaching.
"Get down," Kyle shouted while pulling the girl, Star, down to cover with him.
Harry hit the dirt with the younger pair just as the large hovercraft powered vehicle flew through in the street running alongside the building the trio was hiding in, destabilizing the neighboring skyscraper and causing the building to collapse.
"That was a Hunter Killer…thanks to you they know we're here," Kyle informed the newly arrived traveler after the HK had passed. "Come on," Kyle instructed before helping Star up.
As Harry followed Kyle and Star, he took the opportunity to scan the pair. Both youths were suffering from mild radiation poisoning which would cut their life spans in half. The warlock directed nanites into the youths' bodies to repair the damage.
"So where is this Griffith Observatory?" Harry asked as the trio walked into the younger pair's home, a bombed out building on the outskirts of town.
"You don't want to go out after dark. Hunter Killers have infrared and hunt better at night. We'll all go tomorrow morning," Kyle assured as he sat down while Star retrieved a plate for him.
"What is that?" The wizard questioned while indicating the organic matter the young man was putting onto the plate for Star.
"Two day old Coyote," Kyle answered as he took a whiff. "Better than three day old Coyote," the skinny youth added with a laugh.
"Eat this," Harry ordered as he tossed both younger humans an MRE taken from the inner pockets of his coat.
"Where'd you get these?" Kyle asked in surprise as he tore open the food, showing Star how to prepare the meal.
"My memory has started to return. The temporary memory loss was a side effect of the cryo sleep I put myself in," explained the fey.
"Cryo sleep?" Kyle prompted in confusion while he devoured the MRE.
"I was a scientist," Harry began as he found a broken old radio and cracked open the case to begin to repair it. "I was a paranoid fuck as well. A nuclear war was something I always feared would happen. So I used my knowledge to build a cryogenic chamber deep underground which wouldn't kill me when I used it. I set the sucker to wake me when most of the radiation would begin to fade. The moment my sensor network told me there were nukes launched I ran into my bunker and the rest is history," the Potter male finished.
"So that's where you go that cool gun," Kyle nodded with understanding.
"Yes…I built my 'cool gun' with my knowledge of plasma mechanics," Harry replied. "Hold this," the magician instructed Star while handing her the microphone part of the CB radio. "So why are you still in LA?"
"We're the Resistance, LA branch," Kyle answered. "Plus we couldn't get out on foot."
"Want to see a magic trick?" Harry asked Star. "Hold that up and press the button," the warlock instructed the little girl while running a paperclip down the inductor coil.
The resulting static garnered a smile out of Star.
"Effective range of weapons is less than one hundred meters," a male voice came over the air. "They pack a lot of firepower but the T600's are heavy and slow. They are a primitive design."
"Who is that?" Harry asked curiously, seeing if Kyle knew.
"I don't know," was Kyle's reply.
"If you can't outrun them then you have one option. Their motor cortex is partially exposed at the back of their neck. A knife to this area will distort their tracking device but not for long. Above all stay alive. You have no idea how important you are and how important you will become. The machines are advancing even faster than I told you they would. I've seen it with my own eyes. They are inventing new Terminators, new ways of killing us. Skynet is planning something big. But the resistance is planning something bigger. This is John Connor, if you're listening to this you are the resistance," Connor said just before signing off.
"John Connor," Harry heard Kyle whisper while the young god closed his eyes and reached out with his mind, searching for Connor's mind.
When he found the target mind in a distant underground bunker Harry employed one of his newer divine powers and split his consciousness so that he could control both bodies.
Connor's bunker…
John Connor had led a very interesting life. From a young age John was raised with the knowledge that he was destined to save humanity from the Terminators. Skynet had sent several Terminators into the past to try to kill John and his mother, Sarah Connor. John's own father happened to be Kyle Reese; the young human back with Harry's other body.
"Do you think he heard you?" Kate Connor, John's wife, asked after Harry set down the radio handset.
"I think so," the wizard answered in reference to Kyle. "How about you and I go remind ourselves what makes us different from the machines," the amorous deity suggested with an enticing grin while letting his aura affect the red haired beauty he recognized as the form of an actress named Claire Danes from his database.
"And what would that difference be honey?" Kate purred as she walked over and straddled her man's lap.
"Let me show you lover," Harry spoke huskily as he leaned forward and captured Kate's pouty lips in a hungry kiss.
Harry picked Kate up as he stood, the woman wrapping her legs around him, before carrying her to their nearby bedroom.

LA, the next morning…
It didn't take Harry long to locate a jeep that wouldn't be hard to get running again.
"So you get it working?" Kyle asked impatiently only a half hour after the immortal engineer had started the repair job.
"Just about," the warlock answered as he connected the battery salvaged from another vehicle.
"Good. Look, I figure we head east right. We go through the desert and then we can connect with the resistance there," Kyle proposed.
"Sounds like a plan," Harry agreed as he hotwired the jeep, the radio kicking on automatically.
Star smiled at the song as the deity reached inside and turned off the radio, not wanting any attention attracted by the noise.
"What is that?" The young Kyle queried.
"Something my brother used to listen to," responded the Potter male. "Get into the passenger seat with Star," Harry instructed while closing the hood and walking around to the driver's side.
There were no doors on the jeep which proved useful the next moment when an aerial drone appeared behind the three.
"Air scout," Kyle shouted. "It's a scout for the Terminators!"
The two younger humans were already inside the vehicle so Harry jumped in and shifted into gear. The reality traveler slammed on the gas and drove down the steep hill. It was a rough drive but the skilled engineer managed to keep the vehicle from turning over. The air scout was hot on the jeep's tale as the trio drove along an old road heading out of LA.
"Grab the wheel," Harry ordered.
"But I've never driven before," Kyle objected even as he was forced to take the wheel.
The deity kept his foot on the gas while leaning out the door opening. Pulling his plasma gun from his coat Harry took aim and hit the air scout with the first shot. The scout exploded in an energetic plasma burst. As the trio drove out of LA the warlock knew their escape had been broadcast back to Skynet. The magician's people in the resistance picked up the increased enemy activity around the city. The wizard, in his John Connor form, ordered the jets in to run interference with any pursuing HKs.
Meanwhile the trio in the jeep pulled up to an old rundown gas station. Kyle hopped out with his own shotgun ready while Star followed close behind. Harry looked through the building and saw quite a few people lying hidden.
"Hey…there's someone here," Kyle whispered to Star as he noticed a bottle of milk recently disturbed as indicated by a drop of milk running down from the rim.
That was when many armed men with guns aimed at Harry, Kyle, and even Star dropped out of hiding.
"Get down and drop your weapons," was shouted by several of the men.
"There a problem?" The Potter enchanter asked, making no hostile move as a black male, obviously the leader, approached.
"Hey we saw your resistance sign," Kyle spoke up.
"The old lady put it there, not me," the leader responded. "What do you want?"
"We're looking for fuel," the fey explained.
"The dark season is coming," the leader replied as he brought his gun to bear. "We only got enough for ourselves."
"You point that gun at somebody you had better be ready to pull the trigger," Kyle spoke up at the most inappropriate time for such a statement.
Harry threw a look at Kyle that basically conveyed what the fuck.
"Put your guns down everyone," an old woman spoke up as she stepped out of the back.
"Look we just came to find the resistance that's all," Kyle tried to explain.
"The resistance…what a joke," snorted the dark leader. "Fighting those machines is impossible. We keep our heads down and they ignore us."
"You keep your heads down and they'll come for you eventually," Kyle retorted.
"Kyle…not the time," censured the god; deciding Kyle's people skills had most certainly suffered growing up in this isolated age. "Fine…we'll just be on our way," Harry announced as he took Star's hand.
"You're not going anywhere," the old lady spoke up. "Not until this one gets something to eat," the woman added while nodding at Star.
The old lady took Star's hand and walked over to a spot next to the armed leader. The elderly woman wrapped her walking stick on the ground three times where the hollow trap door Harry could see through was. The leader moved off the door finally in acceptance.
"Bring me a basket," called the woman. "Here you go," the gray haired female told Star. "Come on, help yourselves, eat up," urged the caring survivor.
Kyle and Star quickly dug into the carrots and other vegetables in the basket while Harry just looked off in the distance. Walking over to the window the immortal confirmed with his eyes what his other senses had told him for a while.
"There is a Hunter Killer approaching and it's about to drop a giant robot on top of us," the perceptive wizard announced loud enough for all to hear.
Pandemonium broke loose in the next moment as everybody tried to make a run for it. Harry calmly walked over to Star and Kyle and picked the little girl up. The warrior mage grabbed Kyle's jacket and pulled the younger male along out the back. The first souls unfortunate enough to try for a vehicle were blasted back as the shoulder canon on the robot blew the car apart. The robot continued picking people up with the four arms it possessed. The machine put the captured humans in a cage bound for the creator only knew where.
"You brought em here, you brought em here," a panicking local shouted at the deity and two companions just before a car ran the local over as it hauled tailpipe out of the nearby barn.
That car along with a camper didn't make it far as they were blown to bits by the energy canon on the robot's shoulder.
"Get in the truck Kyle," the reality traveler instructed as he handed Star over to the younger man.
The trio was not going to make it far with that canon present.
"Start the truck and get it ready," Harry ordered before running around to the side of the building with the robot.
The massive mechanical being spotted the sorcerer immediately and let out a deep warble meant to frighten its victims so much that they would be paralyzed with fear and easier to catch. As the machine bent down and reached for the wizard, he grinned wickedly. As soon as the four armed entity was within range the fey jumped to meet it. Harry grasped the creature's metal hand and jerked hard. With a screaming groan of breaking metal the arm ripped free. The robot stood back up and tried to process its new configuration. The immortal saw the old woman inside the cage staring at him in shock. The warrior threw the kind female a mischievous grin before flying up fast and hard, delivering an uppercut that took the robot's head clean off its shoulders. When the deity landed the robot fell back with an earth shaking thud. Rushing over to the cage the enchanter ripped the door off before turning and tossing it with great force at the hovering HK. The craft exploded in a flash of flame and fuel.
"I would suggest getting as far away from here as possible," Harry told the old lady and the other amazed humans.
"What are you?" The old lady asked.
"Me…I'm a god," the reality traveler responded with a shrug before gesturing with his hands for effect and making a backpack materialize before each of the survivors.
The backpacks contained some much needed survival supplies along with a plasma weapon that would be impossible for anyone in this timeframe to reverse engineer. With his work done Harry ran back to the truck and hopped into the driver's seat. The mage could already sense the other hunter killer unit Skynet had sent as backup but held in reserve coming for the escapees. Skynet wanted Kyle as the father to John Connor. The robots wanted the wizard's new young friend dead.
Harry gunned the engines and felt the powerful machine push the tow truck forward. As he put on the speed the magician sensed that he had missed something with the four armed robot.
"Moto terminators," Kyle called as the Potter male detected the two robot motorcycles coming out of the legs of the half destroyed larger robot.
"Here," Harry shouted as he tossed Kyle his plasma gun.
Kyle took aim at the moto terminator on his side and squeezed off a round. Due to not being used to the powerful weapon Mr. Reese missed. The motorcycle robots sensed the danger the plasma rounds presented to them and were able to dodge Kyle's attempts after that initial success. Harry plowed through the cars cluttering the road, sending the vehicles high into the air. The robotic motorcycles were able to dodge the car as well, calculating the trajectories of the vehicles as the vehicles came down.
Due to the nature of gyroscopes, or the wheels the motorcycles ran on, the moto terminators were able to right themselves from what would have been a slide out with a human rider. The agile cycles slid and dodged under the falling objects. Harry reached a small overpass as Kyle climbed into the back. The resourceful survivor pushed a drum of oil onto the roadway and shot it. The lubricant caused the closest robot to slide out and crash into a bus.
"Hold on," Harry shouted to Kyle as the young god took the tow truck off the main road and down to another one on the underpass below.
"Where's the other one?" Kyle shouted just before it ramped off the overpass and landed in front of the tow truck.
It was then that the wizard found out that the moto terminators were equipped with energy canons of their own.
"My gun," Harry shouted as the weaker energy weapon impacted the grill of the truck.
The warrior warlock caught his weapon without turning to look at Kyle and blew the shattered front window out of the truck. The enchanter took aim at the demonic motorcycle. The fey grinned as he sensed the motorcycle preparing to make a correction if the weapon was fired. The immortal male pulled the trigger. Based upon the previous readings the moto terminator had detected of the energy rounds traveling at it, the death dealing cycle should have had time to dodge. Harry wrapped the ball of plasma in his telekinesis and pushed the round harder and faster so that the machine had no time to compensate. The motorcycle shot into the air as it blew in half. The tow truck driver ran the machine over as he kept on driving.
Just then another energy blast hit the back of the truck.
"Fuck this shit," Harry muttered as he reached into his coat for a plasma grenade. "Get down," the engineer ordered Star and Kyle before tossing the plasma grenade out the window set on a wide enough blast radius.
The explosion released a miniature star behind the tow track as the heat wave buffeted the trio's vehicle.
"What was that?" Kyle shouted.
"You don't want to know," the warlock answered.
Just then the trio reached a bridge passing over a river far below. An HK flew over the bridge and blasted a huge hole in front of where the tow truck was headed. Harry slammed on the brakes but knew the large vehicle wouldn't be able to stop in time. Even if they did stop the HK would get the trio. The deity also detected the transport ship carrying humans from other raided locations hovering on the other side of the bridge.
"Kyle grab onto my arm and hold on tight," the sorcerer shouted over the squeal of the skidding vehicle while scooping up Star.
When Kyle was holding tight, the super strong and fast magician leapt out of the driver's side door, over the side of the bridge.
"We're going to die," screamed Kyle into his rescuer's ear as the trio plummeted towards the river below, far below.
Harry knew the other two wouldn't survive the fall without his intervention. So the well traveled wizard willed his karakesh into his hand. The device snapped into place after which the god immediately aimed it at the surface of the river. The sorcerer unleashed a wave of power which slowed the falling trio's descent. The three beings still hit quite hard. Kyle was knocked unconscious while Harry shielded Star with his aura. In the process the mage put the little girl to sleep so that he could fly out of the river with both of his passengers in tow. The fey willed the three of them invisible from the sensors of the HK and transport craft. The robotic vessels didn't stick around long to search because two resistance jets were hot on their tails.
Harry watched as the jets took out the slow moving HK before turning their attention to the transport. As they attacked the deity flew along the surface of the river with Kyle and Star in his arms.
"We've got an HK pushing our six," the Potter male heard, listening to the radio chatter as the one pilot messaged resistance headquarters.
"Abort run," the second fighter pilot called.
The first pilot was blown out of the sky before the two jets got far away from the bridge. The second fighter pilot pulled out of the river just after being damaged by falling rocks. Harry watched the pilot punch out just before her plane crashed. The ejected pilot's name was Blair Williams, a fighter under John Connor's command. The immortal flew up to the top of the ravine and started walking towards Blair after touching down and making himself visible. The sorcerer soon found Blair hanging from her entangled chute lines about twenty feet in the air off of an old power line tower.
Blair managed to release some of her straps and dropped down a bit further so that she could slip off her helmet.
"Are you ok?" Harry asked as he climbed up next to Blair, with Kyle and Star still unconscious on the ground.
"Get my knife," the pilot replied. "It's in my left boot," Blair added as she held out her leg.
"I've got a better idea. Hold on a second," the sorcerer instructed as he reached into his coat and withdrew a silver cylinder.
The deity ignited the light saber and enjoyed the look of shock on Blair's attractive face.
"Is that what I think it is?" The resistance fighter inquired in shock.
"I used to be a bit of a star wars fan," Harry replied before slicing Blair's line and leaping out to grab her in one smooth move.
The mage flipped in the air and landed on his feet with Blair in his arms.
"I don't think being a fan gets you a light saber or lets you perform moves like a Jedi," Blair pointed out as her handsome rescuer set her down. "The name's Blair Williams, what's yours?" The beauty prompted.
"Marcus, Marcus Wright," the fey answered. "I was a scientist before the war. I'll tell you more as we walk but the short of it is that I did a bit of genetic manipulation on myself to give me some of the abilities to match my weapon," the reality explorer made up on the fly while reaching down and hefting Kyle and Star onto his shoulders with ease.
"What happened to them?" Blair queried as she began walking beside the handsome deity.
"They took a nasty bump on the noggin when we hit the water after diving off that bridge. My portable healing equipment is low on juice and the cells for my weapons would need to be modified to work. I think they'll be ok," the immortal explained.
"If you're talking about that bridge back there it's amazing any of you are alive," Blair said. "So tell me more about yourself Marcus."
So Harry told his companion about his past. The warlock told Blair as much as he could without lying too much. The magician stuck to the hibernating scientist story. Blair invited the genius back to her base, realizing how much of an asset he could be to the resistance. The pilot also was extremely attracted to the engineer. The god managed to make the attractive woman laugh and smile quite a few times, something she informed him was extremely rare in that day and age.
By the time night fell it was raining heavily. Harry was keeping Star and Kyle unconscious while he got to know Blair. The telepath was also taking the opportunity to update the unconscious pair's memories a bit to incorporate his speed, strength, and light saber into their recent adventures.
"Over there," Blair called while pointing out a shelter as the travelers came to what used to be a town. "Find something we can burn," the dark haired and tanned beauty instructed the wizard as she pulled open her jacket and tried to examine where the parachute straps had bruised her shoulder.
"Here let me," the warrior warlock suggested as he slipped his hand onto the woman's shoulder.
Harry channeled enough healing energy slowly into Blair's shoulder to make it look like he found the task difficult.
"How did you do that?" The pilot asked in surprise as she rubbed her much better feeling shoulder.
"Genetic enhancements…I'm also keeping those two in a slight coma until we can find out if they have any head injuries," the fey explained before walking off in search of something to burn.
Harry didn't stray too far from his attractive new interest. The engineer would simply tell Blair he had used his light saber to cut a tree up when in actuality he simply permanently conjured the fire fuel. The enchanter had been gone long enough for the rain to stop. Blair had set her gun aside, not expecting to find any other humans for miles around but she was wrong.
"What do you got there?" A skinny male shouted from about ten meters behind Blair, his friend standing ninety degrees the other way.
"Just some antibiotics," the pilot answered while trying to sound calm and collected.
"Antibiotics are hard to come by these days," the skinny man said as his fat friend circled around.
"Listen I don't have much but you're welcome to whatever you need," Blair told the men with a forced smile on her lips.
Blair suspected what the seedy looking men were going to try.
"We been watching you," a third man told the pilot as he stepped out from behind a nearby structure and crouched down with a knife in his hands.
"Looking for this?" The skinny creep questioned as he held up the resistance fighter's gun.
"Come on guys…the machines are the enemy," Blair tried. "We're on the same side."
"No, no…you see I got a couple friends on my side," the skinny leader said as he held the fighter pilot's gun.
"Maybe they can carry you home when I'm done with you," Blair threatened, done with playing nice.
The leader responded by pointing Blair's own gun at her and cocking the hammer.
"You might want to chamber a round," Blair suggested.
When the weapon wielder made the mistake of looking at the gun and taking his eyes off of her Blair lashed out with a hard fist to the side of his face, knocking him down. But the third man behind her came at the pilot carrying an assault rifle. Blair kneed her attacker in the groin, dropping him as well only for the fat thug to pistol whip her from behind. Blair went down in the mud.
The cowardly attacker whooped in joy as he began to ramble. The assault rifle wielder picked Blair up as she struggled, the coward pawing her face. It was at that point when Harry arrived. The warlock came up behind the thug holding Blair and delivered a hard jab to the man's kidney. When the would-be rapist released Blair to clutch his injured organ the mage delivered a powerful knee to the pathetic man's jewels. As that assailant dropped gasping to the ground the other two goons charged the deity.
The warlock deflected the fist of the first opponent while grabbing the offending wrist. The god jerked the appendage forward and twisted, causing the man to have to bend down or risk getting a broken arm. Harry kneed the man in the temple, dropping the mortal to the ground with the aid of the stunner the crafty fey had channeled through the thug's knee. The third attacker tried an approach from behind but the agile enchanter flipped high backwards, landing behind the most cowardly rapist, the one who had pistol whipped Blair. The wizard drew a knife from his coat lining so fast the man didn't see it coming. The reality traveler sliced down so quickly the coward's right testicle was falling to the ground before the now one testicle equipped being knew what hit him. As the mortal began screaming and clutching his bloody nut sack, trying to keep the second ball from spilling out, the engineer removed a fancy lighter from a jacket pocket.
"Here this will help," Harry announced as he put the plasma lighter to the screaming man's groin.
The mage efficiently cauterized the wound while Blair held her gun on the other downed mortals. Harry grabbed Kyle and Star and carried them for about a quarter of a mile to another part of town, Blair grabbing the stack of firewood.
"Thanks for that back there," Blair told her rescuer as he crouched and ignited the recently assembled campfire with his plasma lighter.
"I hate rapists, despise them with every fiber of my being," Harry stated casually, showing none of his urges to go murder the three would be rapists and banish them to a hell reality.
"I'm surprised you didn't kill them," Blair pointed out with a question in her tone.
"The only reason they are alive is because there are not enough humans left. If we grow any smaller in numbers our species won't have a very good chance of surviving," the brilliant scientist explained as he sat back against a hill of fine gravel, with the pair sitting in what used to be an old quarry.
"He can still procreate with one nut," Blair pointed out in sudden realization with a grin as she sat a foot away from her handsome rescuer.
"Unfortunately," the wizard agreed while contacting Aristotle and having the recently beaten men implanted with devices which would kill them if they tried raping anyone again.
Harry could genetically manipulate the surviving humans to create enough genetic diversity if he had to. Blair playfully threw a handful of gravel at her companion's leg while laughing. The beautiful young woman rubbed her hands together.
"I'm a little cold," Blair informed the male, looking at him intently while the sex god could sense her temperature rising in certain areas.
The pilot rolled onto her knees and crawled up to the deity. The attractive woman lifted his arm and laid her head on Harry's chest, his arm wrapping around her.
"Relax…I just want some body heat," Blair informed the warlock.
"You aren't going to hear me complain," the always amorous sorcerer responded, causing his companion to laugh.
"You have a strong heart. God I love that sound. Thank you again for saving me back there. I don't meet a lot of good guys these days," Blair explained while looking up into Harry's face.
The beauty leaned up and kissed the mage. The enchanter responded immediately, apparently signaling to the woman his consent.

Resistance Outpost led by John Connors…
"Morning beautiful," Harry greeted Kate as she woke up, still draped naked over him.
"Morning," Kate replied with a smile before kissing her man.
"Would you like some breakfast?" The deity inquired.
"Sure," agreed the wizard's wife.
"Dobby," the fey called out much to the confusion of Kate.
There was a pop before a silver tray laid out with two full breakfast entrees was on a table beside the couple's bed.
"John what just happened?" Kate questioned in shock as she sat up and stared at the tray.
"It will be easier to show you," answered the young god as he opened the bond connection to his red haired wife.
"Oh my god," gasped Kate as she clutched her left hand to her forehead.
"I am a god and I am yours so I guess that applies," the immortal teased like he did every time one of his mates made that particular statement.
"John," Kate groaned as she smacked his bare chest. "Or is it Harry?"
"Whatever you want to call me," the reality traveler told the woman with a shrug of his shoulders. "So are you ok with this?"
"You're still you…I can sense you inside there. It's just…you are so much more," Kate said with awe tinting her tone. "So I guess I'm ok with it. It will end this war faster and in our favor, something I could only dream about before," the intelligent doctor explained.
"That it will," the warrior mage agreed. "Now…I want my breakfast served on much nicer dishes than the ones Dobby was able to provide," suggested the sorcerer mischievously as he rolled the strawberry blonde female onto her back.
Harry pulled down the sheet and proceeded to summon the strawberries, various melons, and whipped topping from the tray while making himself a very delicious Kate berry breakfast with her nether parts. Kate certainly didn't mind.
"What have we got?" Harry asked as he walked into the lab followed by a very happy Kate Connor.
"We burned out its transmitter so it can't talk to any of its pals," Sparks, one of the female techies, answered as the others tried to restrain the hydro bot, a snake like terminator that lived in the nearby river. "But it can still receive."
"Turn it on," the genius jade eyed engineer ordered, in reference to the signal Resistance Command had picked up and tasked the warlock to test on the robots.
The signal was supposed to be an overriding shutdown command for the robots which Skynet kept very secret. Harry could already tell the command signal was a trap, to lure the resistance into a false sense of security and victory.
"Can you believe it?" Sparks asked a moment after she turned the signal on full; the robot appeared to be inactive.
"No I can't…it's a trap," was the enchanter's response.
"Sir, what do you mean it's a trap?" Barnes, one of John's seconds, questioned.
"I cracked the code on these bastards two nights ago. I've been shifting through it since then and found a command to play dead when that signal you just activated was sent. Skynet can still reactivate its machines. I'm betting if we try to go at them some will play dead while we go too deep in their territory and then reactivate to trap us," Harry explained.
Everybody appeared dejected at that news.
"Sir, Blair is back," was called out just then, bringing everybody out of their funk at the good news.
Harry had been following Blair for the last half day as they neared her base. The curvy pilot kept throwing big smiles back her man's way as he floated Kyle and Star behind him, a power Blair was very surprised about when he had revealed it to her.
"Little something you want to tell me about Blair dear?" The sorcerer asked as he gestured at the warning sign that cautioned of a mine field.
"This is us…the mines are magnetic," Blair explained. "If we head due west at this point of entry we're good," the woman added.
As the quartet began to cross the mine field Harry used his aura to decrease his magnetic permeability to zero, effectively making him invisible to the mines.
"Blair," John greeted the pilot with a large hug as the group reached the bottom of the entrance tunnel.
"Hey John," Blair greeted with a smile and a return embrace. "This is Marcus and those are his friends, Kyle and Star."
"I know Blair…we've got a lot to talk about…well not so much talk as show," John corrected himself.
"Oh just get on with it honey," Kate spoke up while poking John in the back.
John/Harry released Blair's essence bond to her consciousness and she staggered for a moment. Kate caught her good friend.
"You…," Blair pointed to John. "You're him," Blair told Marcus.
Both versions of Harry nodded. Instead of one being a temporal clone the god was using his divine powers to split his consciousness. Doing it that way got rid of any messy divergent realities due to temporal variations.
"You could have transported us back here all along," Blair growled while punching Marcus' arm.
"I think we had more fun on the long way," Marcus replied suggestively with a grin.
"I bet," Kate muttered. "Come on honey…let's go get you cleaned up," Kate told Blair as she took the darker haired woman's arm.
"Women," Marcus muttered to John.
"After all our wives, I'll still never completely understand them," agreed John.
"You know talking to yourself isn't exactly healthy," Marcus pointed out.
"Hell…we've fucked ourselves," John rebutted, while they both thought of Jessie and others like her.
"Point," agreed Marcus as the pair of men walked down the hall after their wives, Kyle and Star floating behind them.
As it turned out Kate had decided to join Blair in the spacious shower Harry had created for her in their quarters that morning. When both versions of the deity walked in on his two wives exploring their new sex god aura induced bisexuality a terribly fun orgy ensued.
"So what are you going to do to end the war?" Blair asked her husband from her position of being half draped over him with Kate on his other side, the warlock's John form spooned behind the redhead.
"I was thinking of just blowing everything up," Marcus answered thoughtfully.
"God we miss Jack and Daniel. This would be the point where Daniel would try to object to blowing everything up but then would eventually agree with us," John said.
"Don't you see them quite often?" Blair inquired in confusion.
"No…it takes them a while to loop back around. You're forgetting that they've got quite a few universes they are living in now," Kate pointed out, having longer to get used to the new reality of her life than Blair.
"Why not just split your consciousness between all of your other selves like you're doing right now and make clones of yourself to control," Blair suggested.
"Well this consciousness splitting is a fairly new talent we've begun to learn. Eventually we'll do exactly what you suggested but it will take awhile for us to control more forms," explained the sorcerer.
"Oh…what did you mean blow everything up? Define everything," demanded Blair.
"Oh we meant the planet," John clarified.
"What," two indignant females shouted simultaneously?
"We'll make it better," Marcus added, while trying to get the ringing out of his ears.
"As we speak our city ship is beaming up all the humans on Earth. There are only a few million humans left alive anyway. The transporter has actually been going at it for the last few hours. With the transporter relays the replicats have been distributing all over the world to enhance the transporter systems on Atlantis they should be done in 7…6…5….4….3….2….1," John continued as the foursome felt themselves being transported away.
"Master Harry Potter bestest god of sex sir," Dobby's voice could be heard loudly in the room the four had been transported into.
"Dobby…how many times have I asked…please just call me Harry," the young god tried once more.
"Of course Harry Potter bestest god of sex sir," Dobby agreed as he sat in the elf sized control chair beside the normal sized one.
"You're letting Dobby fly the city ship?" Kate asked in surprise.
"Well yes and no," John replied.
"Dobby is piloting the city but the AI systems will make sure he doesn't do anything…too dangerous," Marcus explained.
"Dobby is killing nasty machinies," squealed the little elf with unholy glee as the three powerful beings (Harry only counts as one) sensed the energy weapons on the bottom of the city taking out select Skynet facilities on the planet below.
"That's nice Dobby…are all the humans aboard?" Marcus queried.
"Yes sir," Dobby responded while nodding.
"Good…activate the phase cloak," the fey ordered.
When Harry felt the shield in question activate he transported himself and his two wives out of the ship into space for a better view. The sex god waved his hand and the planet below them disappeared.
"What did you do with it?" Blair asked curiously, and with a bit of awe.
Being told and shown memories of your new husband being amazingly powerful was one thing but watching him vanish a planet with a wave of his hand really made her new lot in life sink home.
"I put it in a very evil universe," declared Harry while sharing the knowledge of the universe in question with both his wives.
The universe that should never have existed…
In this universe the Chinese government had spearheaded a movement to destroy all women on Earth. It was something that the communists had wished to do in other universes as well but had never had the stones to actually carry out. That was why they killed baby girls…because they wanted a dick fest. And in this very evil universe they got their wish. There were no women left on the planet and it was one giant dick fest.
There were also wizards on this planet; including a Tom Riddle and Albus Dumbledore. Due to the duo's various means to extend their lives longer they cared less about the ultimate fate of their species and more about their man harems. The two powerful wizards fought not over issues of blood purity but over who had the best man harem. Their new style of wand was a dildo with a magical core. The winner of a magical duel now became the property of the victor.
It was at the time of one of their frequent duels when a shadow passed over the planet.
"An eclipse," Dumbledore suggested in confusion as everybody looked up, the duel temporarily stopping.
"No…it can't be at this time," Riddle shouted.
Both wizards activated eye enhancement charms and realized the truth of what was heading their way at the same time.
"No…I cannot die," Tom screamed manically. "If I'm going to die I'm going to take you with me for what you did old man," screamed the Bent Lord.
"You know you enjoyed my attentions Tom," Dumbledore answered calmly, ready to go onto the next great adventure.
"I was eleven! You raped me," screamed Riddle.
"Now, now Tom it was for the greater good," Dumbledore placated.
As the other wizards began to panic and run with terror at their impending doom Tom Marvolo Riddle attacked Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore with a scream of pure rage. The two wizards were still fighting when the second Earth crashed into their own, right at the point the two wizards battled.
A spectacular explosion of rock and energy heralded the end of the two earths.
"My god what a horrible world," gasped out Kate in shock.
"Unfortunately there are a lot of horrible worlds out there," agreed Harry as he opened up another wormhole, this time to a reality where for one reason or another life had never developed beyond plant and animal life on Earth.
"So can we go celebrate the end of the war now," Blair suggested with a sultry grin.
"Sure," Harry agreed.
"I'm game," Kate added.
The three popped away to their quarters and left it to Dobby to land the city.
Despite the quick end to the war there was still a lot of rebuilding to be done. Harry let the humans live in his city ship until they could get permanent settlements up. The reality traveler helped the young recovering race with cleaner energy and other improvements which bettered their quality of life. The survivors appeared to have learned their lesson because any artificial intelligence research was strictly prohibited. Dobby seemed to get a kick out of layering his body with illusions so as to appear as a terminator and popping into the human's homes from time to time. The amusing house elf claimed it was Halloween and he was just trick or treating. Apparently the wacky elf didn't understand that Halloween only came once a year, not 365 days a year.

This is the last Path verse that I have completely finished. I have quite a few others in partial stages of completion. Thanks for reading and please remember to review.
