Chapter 738

It Happened

Previously:

Savannah and John now stood naked in front of each other. They both took in the other's beauty. Neither one was embarrassed to be naked in front of the other. They were in the same place before, but failed to complete their 'union'. It was very close. This time was sure to be different.

John briefly reflected on how close he previously was. He bounced around on the 'outside' of Savannah in his rush to claim her virginity. Before he could, the base alarm went off and spoiled everything. This time he intended to make sure he was going to be her 'first' no matter what it took. Future Riley told him she was with others before. She wasn't very specific about it. At the time, he didn't know they were probably actually abuse. He was pretty sure he wasn't Cameron's first. Maybe Future John was, but not him.

Savannah briefly reflected on how close they were before. She wanted John to be her 'first'. She hoped this time he was a little more successful than the last time. She waited in anticipation for the first move. It never came.

They wanted to let each other know this wasn't lust or just sex.

Savannah spoke first. She was sincere. She wanted to prompt him a little. They were going to make love.

"I love you, John." Savannah said.

John looked directly into Savannah's eyes.

"I love you, Savannah." John said.

Savannah pulled John towards her. She lay on the bed as she pulled him on top of her. She could feel she was ready and could see he was. Her earlier encounter with Cameron put her in a high state of sexual arousal. Now in anticipation of being with John, she could tell her body was really ready. She knew she was. Her body was ready and 'asked' for 'it'. She didn't believe there's any way she couldn't do this now, even if she tried to resist.

"It has to be what you want, John." Savannah said. "It must be done freely and out of love."

John moved a little closer to Savannah.

"It is, Savannah." John said.

Savannah knew there would be no bleeding, just some stretching. It wasn't a type of sexual activity she was acclimated to or used to. None of the Metal girls needed more than a single finger to find her G-spot and stimulate it. Now it was time for the 'real thing'.

"John - go slow…." Savannah whispered. "I've never done this before."

Savannah pulled John towards her.

John tried to 'line up'. Savannah's words excited him greatly.

It was something he wanted for several reasons. The fact it was Savannah, and it was her 'first time', only added to his excitement. He knew she was going to remember it forever, as was he.

It was what they wanted, all 'three' of them. They both knew it was something Cameron told them on multiple occasions. It seemed there were times when she almost begged them to listen to her. The stage was set.

It was happening….

Savannah's heart pounded with anticipation and excitement. She hoped John could last long enough to get her to 'heaven'. She felt she was already about half way there. She knew from reading Cosmo she shouldn't expect too much satisfaction on the 'first time'. Ninety percent of the females said they didn't reach a 'finish' on their 'first time'. She knew she shouldn't expect anything different. Things needed to start somewhere and this seemed like a pretty good spot. Whatever it was going to be, was all going to be new sensations to her. She looked forward to them.

She could see John was about to reposition himself. She couldn't wait. She wanted it now.

"I love you, John." Savannah whispered. "Let me have it…."

Cammy moved back to get a better view of Bob and Cameron, she was pretty sure she spotted something which was 'off'. She was there to do a job. It was time to do it.

In an instant she was a Terminator again. Targeting information began to appear in her HUD. She went into combat mode. It was because of what happened behind Cameron and Bob. She knew she should have caught it the first time she looked. She didn't. This could prove fatal, and it would be on her.

Cammy spotted something happen in back of Bob and Cameron. It was clearly a threat. The nature of it was unknown. There were two men who moved up with weapons. They attempted to conceal them to keep them hidden. They seemed to be headed to the room where John and Savannah were. It was the direction they were going.

She pulled her Glock. It was time to act as well as warn the others.

"There are two hostiles who are about to move in on the motel room." Cammy said over her com. "They're armed and headed for John and Savannah's room. There may be more."

Moments ago:

Bob was distracted talking to Cameron. He didn't think she really believed what she said. He caught something in the corner of his eye. Even as he spoke, he heard Cammy speak.

"There's one, no, two armed men moving toward the room where John and Savannah are." Bob said.

Cameron looked and saw Cammy was there with her Glock out and she just issued a warning at the same time Bob did.

They didn't seem to be focusing on Bob or Cameron. In fact, they seemed unaware of them.

In an instant a thought flashed through Cameron's mind. It looked like their motel room, like Cammy said, was the target. It was even worse. John and Savannah would be unarmed and each other's arms when the door was kicked in. They would be slaughtered as they made love. They would die in each other's arms. Maybe there was some beauty in it. She snapped back to reality. She didn't want anyone to die, no matter how pleasurable it would be at the time of death.

Targeting information appeared in her HUD too. It didn't line up with the room John and Savannah were in. She was sure their room wasn't the target. Not yet anyway.

"I think they're going to a different room." Cameron said. "Cammy, cover the back, there will be more of them. Bob and I will take the front."

Cammy checked her targeting information as well. She wasn't going to leave if the men were about to enter the room where John and Savannah were. It quickly appeared they were headed to a different room as Cameron suggested. She knew there would be more men and there would probably be somebody in the back. It briefly made her think they would be in the back doing what she was supposed to be doing behind the storefront. Somehow she felt justified for abandoning her position based upon the current situation.

"OK, I'm taking the back." Cammy responded.

Cammy was dissatisfied with their response with Savannah this close to danger. She wanted to warn Savannah. It was doubtful either John or Savannah currently wore a com right now. Their senses would be directed elsewhere. The animal parts of their brains would be in control. She could almost picture the lustful act in progress as John hungrily savaged Savannah's body and claimed her virginity. She really wasn't sure if Savannah was going to like the type of sexual activity. She knew it was going to be a lot less satisfying than what a female could provide her with, especially a Metal girl.

Seconds ago:

The three Metal girls were headed back down the street towards the motel. All of them were disgusted by the creepy clerk in the surf shop. They really didn't pay attention as to what was happening around them as they discussed ways to terminate him.

"I didn't like the way he looked at me." Gail said. "I should go back and snap his neck now."

Ally was disgusted with his internet viewing habits.

"I'll help you." Ally said.

Sheila didn't want to be outdone.

"Let me 'work' on him a little bit first." Sheila said. "I'll find out all of his secrets."

They heard the exchange between Cammy and Cameron. Bob's almost simultaneous transmission confirmed it.

The Metal girls were instantly alert

"There's trouble ahead." Gail said.

They saw Cammy move toward the backside of the motel.

Gail wanted to make sure Savannah was adequately protected. She wanted to make sure Cammy received additional assistance as well.

"Sheila, go back up Cammy." Gail said. "Ally, follow me."

The three Metal girls came running. They would be near the motel very soon.

Sheila 'peeled off' to reinforce Cammy.

It looked like they were all about to become Terminators. They were all unarmed. Their only weapons were themselves. They were more than ready for the task. John and Savannah were in danger. Nothing else mattered at this point. The Metal girls would fight until termination before they would allow anything to happen to John and Savannah. The thought of sheath damage didn't even cross their mind. It didn't matter.

Cameron quickly assessed the situation. She knew she could handle two humans easily. What she didn't know is what else was out there to back the men up, or make their own assault.

"Bob, watch for more men coming from the front or street." Cameron said. "I have these two."

Cameron headed in their direction. She checked everything now.

Cammy went to the backside and peaked around the corner and looked down the alley behind the motel.

There were two men in the back. They were a couple of rooms over from John and Savannah's room.

"I have two in the back." Cammy said. "They're over two rooms from ours."

Cammy heard footsteps running from behind her. She turned to face the new threat. She was relieved when she saw it was Sheila.

She was pleased with the additional help from Sheila. She felt the need to warn Savannah somehow. She wasn't exactly sure how best to do it from her current position and without Savannah having a com in. There could be bullets flying in all directions in a matter of seconds. Even if they weren't specifically targeted, both of them could be hit with stray rounds. They obviously weren't wearing combat vests in their current situation. Maybe at some point in time they would do some 'role playing' where they could do something similar. She quickly pushed the thought from her mind. She needed to act.

"I need to warn Savannah and John." Cammy said.

Sheila noticed Cammy's uneasiness. She didn't think it would be a big deal to warn the others.

"They have their coms on." Sheila said.

Cammy looked at Sheila for a second. She figured she might as well know the truth.

"They don't have anything on…." Cammy said.

Sheila's eyes widened slightly as she contemplated what Cammy just said. She wanted to verify what was just indicated.

"Do you mean they're…?" Sheila asked.

Cammy didn't want to elaborate too much. She also wanted Sheila to have some firepower. She handed her Glock to her.

"YES." Cammy said.

Cammy still held her Taser. She didn't know the nature of the threat yet. The two individuals she observed in the back could possibly be Terminators. It was yet to be determined. She still wanted to give Savannah a 'heads up'. She didn't think there was sufficient time to make it around to the front. She couldn't hang Sheila out to dry either. She was going to need to get creative. Creative might prove a little destructive under the current conditions. It didn't matter. Savannah and John came first.

Bob moved out to the street. He saw two figures running rapidly from the direction of the shops. It was Gail and Ally. He decided to split their group and reinforce Cameron.

"Gail, come with me." Bob said. "Ally, go help Cameron, she's two rooms over from our room."

Ally peeled off and headed for Cameron.

Gail looked in the direction Bob was headed earlier. She immediately spotted a threat. It was down a few vehicles.

"I see something over there." Gail said. "I see someone waiting in a sedan."

Bob quickly looked in the direction Gail indicated. He could see some black whiffs of smoke coming from the rear of the vehicle. It looked like someone was ready for a quick getaway.

"The engine is running and the person looks nervous." Bob said.

Gail believed she knew what it was. She came to the same conclusion Bob did earlier.

"It's their 'getaway' car." Gail said. "Since the other men were armed, so will the individual in the vehicle."

Bob agreed with her assessment. He also knew of Cammy's report from the rear.

"Be careful, there may be more than one." Bob said. "Cammy reports there are two more assailants in the back. They're at the rear window two rooms over from where John and Savannah are. We've been unable to contact them."

The current situation rapidly escalated. Something was happening and they weren't sure what it was. It was clear the armed men weren't law enforcement. They were thugs of some kind. One sported a Skynet barcode on his arm. It was the mark of the beast - Skynet. It was clear they were thugs of the worst kind. They were Grays. Grays were one step above Scavengers, barely.

The perpetrators might not all be from the future, but if they worked for Grays, or Terminators, they worked for Skynet, even if it was indirectly. They were a Gray by association and a collaborator by their actions. The sentence they already gave themselves by their own actions would be carried out by the Resistance Terminators.

Savannah's body arched a little as her heart pounded. She was ready. She really wanted it. She wanted to get it over with, as much as she wanted to do it in the first place. She was aware girls much younger than her did the same thing all the time. She was also aware most of them hadn't had two children either. She was still a little concerned if she was going to be 'good enough'. She knew Future Riley didn't have any children. Wait. There was no way to know exactly what happened in her future. It didn't matter. She was how she was. She wanted it right now. No. She needed it right now.

"Take me, John." Savannah said. "I've waited so long for this. I wanted it to be you for so long. I really wish this could have happened years ago, you know…."

John was more than excited about what was about to happen. He was about to claim his first virgin. He understood what she meant. It would have been proof it was her 'first time'. He knew it was anyway.

"So have I." John said. "Now it's happening."

John was lined up with Savannah.

Savannah prepared herself for the initial thrust. She knew it was going to be a little easier for her than most females.

"Nothing can stop us now." Savannah said. "Go slow…."

There was a loud 'crash' and a fist appeared through the side of the wall.

What the Hell?

Savannah shoved John away from the noise to the far side of the bed and onto the floor. She knew there was some type of threat, even if she wasn't able to identify it yet.

"Stay down." Savannah said.

Savannah scrambled over and retrieved her weapons. She gave John her Glock and held her Taser. She covered the door to the room, as she looked at the hole off to the side. She was a little surprised at the voice which came through the small hole in the wall.

"Savannah, we have armed Grays. They're two rooms over." Cammy said. "They're in both the front and back. There are at least four with one more in a vehicle on the street. There may be more. We don't know if any of them are Terminators. A barcode was spotted on one of their arms. There's a chance they could be from the anti-Metal faction as well."

Savannah quickly processed the information, she looked over at John. Both groups would be very deadly to John if they could get their hands on him. She wanted him to remain with as much cover as they could find.

"I want you to stay put." Savannah said. "You heard what she said. Stay on the floor for now."

John started to get up.

Savannah moved over pushed him back down. She traded the Taser for the Glock, since she knew they were Grays, or the anti-Metal faction. She planned to bring them down without hesitation. They may not be on a combat mission, but it didn't matter. The enemy was the enemy.

"I told you to stay down." Savannah said forcefully. "You're going to listen to me. You're going to do as I tell you. This is what I've trained for. This is what we've all trained for. You need to be protected at all costs."

Savannah moved over and retrieved her com.

"Tell me what's happening and where we need to go." Savannah said.

Savannah began to fish out their clothes.

She covered both the door and window with her Glock as she did. There was no indication the enemy was headed for either. It could all change in an instant. They might have another target, or they were simply at the wrong room. She knew it wouldn't take too much effort for a Terminator to crash through the side wall if they figured out it wasn't the correct room.

"John, have the Taser ready to cover the sidewall to the room next to us as well as the front of our room." Savannah said.

John didn't like cowering on the floor. The bed was between him and the wall to the other room. He understood exactly what Savannah indicated without her having to say a Terminator might make a traditional entry through the front door, or an unconventional entry into their room through the side wall if they were the targets.

"I'm ready." John said. "You need to get some cover yourself, Savannah."

The two Grays in back of the motel heard the 'crunch' of Cammy's fist go through the wall.

They both looked over.

"What was the noise?" The first man asked.

The second man looked at the window and quickly back down to the end of the alley.

"I don't know." The second man said. "I didn't hear it again."

Sheila tossed Cammy back her Glock and took the Taser. An idea popped into her head which would utilize her female assets.

"I got this, love." Sheila said. "Watch my back, there may be more of them or a second getaway car. If anything else tries to get behind me, make sure they don't."

Sheila reached up in back of her and undid her bikini top. She held it in place with her left hand in the back. Her right hand held the Taser up next to her left hand. It looked from the front like she was about to hook her top. She walked around the corner to face the two men. She should look anything but threatening to anyone. If they were Grays, she knew she would look like a 'target'. It wasn't one to shoot at either.

The men were unsure what to do as they spotted a thin female walk around the corner in the process of adjusting her skimpy top. She appeared nearly naked. She continued to walk towards them as she looked down at the ground. She actually still watched the men. Each step brought her closer to her targets. She wanted to at least get into Taser range. Terminator range would be better. Once she was able to grab them, she would be able to terminate them in a matter of seconds. It only took a simple flick of her wrist to snap their necks.

Cammy watched Sheila walk around the corner of the motel into the alley. She quickly deduced what Sheila was about to do. She thought it was an effective strategy.

"Sheila's moving on the men in the back." Cammy said. "I'm on the lookout for a second car or reinforcements. I have the side in the rear covered."

Sheila continued her approach. She knew Cammy would have her back. If somehow the men were to pull a Taser on her before she could pull her own, Cammy would bring them down with her Glock. There were always a lot of moving parts, especially when they didn't know what was happening or how involved it might turn out to be. It could be the tip of the iceberg. She exaggerated her walk a little to accentuate her figure as she moved closer to the two targets.

Cammy covered the side of the building as well as the entrance to the alley and the street that ran next to the building.

Gail quickly assessed the situation with the sedan. She calculated the best course of action. Should be able to act on her own and free Bob up.

"Bob, watch for anyone else. I have this." Gail said. "I can take the man in the sedan with no problem. He will never see it coming, even if he sees me coming. He'll be too busy looking at my sheath."

Gail separated from Bob and walked near the car without walking directly at the driver. She moved towards the front of the car, she wanted to be observed. She moved closer to the car. When she was about ten feet away she made a 'painful noise' and reached down and touched her foot.

The driver looked at Gail. She leaned against the fender. She bent down in front of the man. The maneuver gave him a good view of her bulging breasts. They were now almost in his face. It wasn't the only thing near his face. She made her move.

The man's gaze was fixated on her massive breasts as her fist slammed into the side of his head. The blow killed him instantly. She opened the car door and slid him over. She turned the car off before getting out. She took the keys with her. She spotted a towel in the back and draped it over the dead man. She didn't know if the man might have backup or there was another vehicle on the street. So far no one said anything, nor fired any weapons.

Bob watched Gail use the assets of her female sheath to move right up to the target without alerting him to his impending termination. He could see how her scantily clad sheath lured the man into his own destruction. His animal instincts canceled whatever training he may have possessed. He could see why female Terminators made such good infiltrators.

"There's one down in the sedan." Bob reported. "I haven't spotted any additional movement from the street or beach area."

Gail hung back from the sedan and remained slightly off to the side. She appeared to look out at the ocean. She actually searched for additional targets and to see if anyone else returned to the sedan.

They still didn't have a clue as to what the threat actually was or how big the enemy force was. They didn't know anything.

Bob could see Gail had everything under control on the street.

"The street looks quiet." Bob said. "I'm going to back up Cameron and Ally."

He moved to reinforce Cameron and Ally, they were both unarmed. He was aware their sheaths would sustain a lot of damage dressed the way they were without body armor. Neither one shied away from the task. They closed in on their targets.

Every Terminator there knew both John and Savannah were close by and would do everything possible to protect them.

Moments ago:

Savannah tossed John his clothes as she peered out the window. She saw Gail off in the distance by a sedan. Bob was out in front keeping watch. Ally hurried to catch up to Cameron.

"Get dressed, we may have to move." Savannah said.

Savannah tossed John his Glock and com. She took his Taser for herself. She was still completely naked. She updated John from the com traffic she heard.

"Sheila is about to make her move on two assailants in the back. Gail just took one out in a sedan across and down the street." Savannah said. "Whatever this is, it isn't over."

John was impressed at how Savannah protected and shielded him. He thought he should be the one doing it for her. He at least needed to say something.

"You need to be careful too, Savannah." John said.

Savannah didn't glance back at John before she spoke. She simply followed her training. She wanted to get him squared away from the beginning. She wasn't his wife, yet, but she was going to lay down the rules anyway.

"You come first." Savannah said. "We all know it. Don't start to argue with me about it like you do with Cameron. I don't want to hear it. You know how all this works. Follow your training like everyone else will do. Don't make me come over there and hold you down. I will."

John struggled into his clothes.

Savannah set her Taser and Glock down in front of her and started to throw some clothes on. She grabbed a shirt and a pair of pants. She skipped her underwear. She kept watch out of the corner of the window as she quickly slipped her clothes on. She noted Bob was on the move. She knew they needed to be ready to move as well. If the enemy was in the wrong room, it wasn't going to take them long to figure it out. How anyone knew where they were was beyond her. She figured they were probably all a little too careless once they were at the beach and the mission wasn't in the forefront. She thought about what John and her almost did. Did it get any more careless than two people trying to make love?

"Bob is moving in to reinforce Cameron and Ally." Savannah said. "Be ready to go."

Savannah tossed all the clothes and weapons lying around the room onto the bed and wrapped everything up in the sheet as she pulled it off the bed. It looked like a giant 'knapsack'. She wanted to bring the Metal girls clothes with her when they evacuated the room. She thought once they left the room, they wouldn't be able to return.

John watched what Savannah did with the sheet.

"It's not how I thought we'd use the sheet." John said.

Savannah briefly looked at John and the wadded up sheet.

"Me either." Savannah said.

Savannah checked out the window again. She stayed low. She didn't want to make herself a target.

John was still down next to the bed. He peered up over the side.

"What do you see?" John asked.

Savannah would like to possess some better intel. They didn't have it.

"We aren't the immediate targets." Savannah said. "It can change. We don't know what's happening."

They knew they could still be the targets and the Grays were about to go to the wrong room. They may have got the room number wrong. Cameron and Ally would take the fight to the Grays.

Savannah motioned for John to shut his com off for a few seconds.

John wasn't sure what Savannah wanted to say. He wanted to say something himself. He felt it was something important.

"I really wanted it to happen." John said.

Savannah did as well. She really thought she wouldn't leave the room a virgin. Now she just wanted to leave it alive along with John in the same condition. There was another thought which crossed her mind. She thought she might be able to use it to their advantage. She thought they could use the situation as a 'test run'.

"John, let's pretend it happened. We'll act as if we did." Savannah said. "It will take a lot of pressure off of us and we can see how Cameron reacts. If it's a problem, she can scan us when we tell her the truth."

John was still a little worried how Cameron would treat him if she believed he was with another female. It didn't matter if she was the one who set it up. He was still worried it would set her off.

"It's if she doesn't snap our necks first." John said.

Savannah laughed to herself. She didn't believe it would happen to her. She wasn't so sure about John.

"She won't." Savannah said. "She won't snap mine anyway."

John knew Savannah wasn't joking. He did think it was a good idea however. He thought if Cameron scanned him before she snapped his neck when he told her they didn't do anything, she could tell he wasn't lying.

"Thanks." John said. "OK, we'll act as if it happened."

John was curious as to what the reaction of Cameron would be. There was a fifty percent chance he would survive if the truth came out quick enough. He could also see how quickly something could escalate into a major situation in literally a matter of seconds. He knew he always came down hard on Cameron for operating on her own. The current situation they were in was a perfect example of how everyone needed to react without any advanced warning or preparation. He felt they were lucky to have the personnel they did close by them.

They both turned their coms back on.

Savannah assessed the sheet full of clothes. She decided to leave it behind for now. It was going to be too bulky and cumbersome to bring with them. She didn't want to have to jettison it on the street.

"Be ready to move." Savannah said. "We can send one of our Terminators back to grab all this stuff. It's all ready to go."

She did a quick double check to make sure.

Savannah thought her heart was pounding before, now it was really pounding. She knew she needed to protect John, even if she needed to use her body to shield him from bullets. She was ready. Her body would be John's 'body armor'. She knew if she was shot anywhere but in the head, she could still fight for fifteen seconds, even if she was shot in the heart. It would take that long for the blood to stop reaching her brain to keep her conscious. She would go down fighting.

Things seem to really work out different then she anticipated just less than a minute ago. She really hoped she didn't die a virgin.

Closing monologue by Cameron:

Things Happen Here Too

Some say everyone orbits
Around their own little world
As long as one is willing
To be controlled and furled

It will depend on their place
Their purpose or their use
Some are subject to abuse
Others a conquest to seduce

When push comes to shove
Most will be pushed away
If the other has anything to lose
Or gain more in a double play

Selfishness, lust and greed
Seem to be the golden rule
So expect to be played for a fool
The treatment worse than cruel

Things happen we're told
Beware, the played can pull a coup
Don't be too surprised because
Things happen here too

Nobody
