Chapter 791


How Did You Stop


The two Grays who were Fanatics, killed themselves rather than face 'The Redheaded Witch'. They were unable to get any useful information out of them. It was still very confusing to them the Fanatics chose to die when they didn't need to. It was quite evident they feared a fate 'worse than death'. The fact they believed in their version of Skynet was more like a religion than anything else. It would seem to indicate their version of Skynet was viewed as a god. They actually referred to it as Sky Master.

There was nothing else of value or use associated with the two dead Fanatics. Now they needed to get rid of the bodies. They didn't want to drive around with them.

"Let's dump these two stiffs." Cammy said.

Cameron looked over the side of the shoulder of the road. There appeared to be a convenient spot waiting for them. There was a gully which ran alongside the 'Old Road'. It didn't look like they would have to go far at all.

"There's a ravine over here." Cameron said. "It's as good of a spot as anywhere and it is right here."

Sheila pulled the two dead men out of the van. They both landed on the ground with a 'thud'.

Savannah glanced at them and didn't see any blood on their bodies. Around their mouths there was some kind pinkish foam. Sheila hadn't gone 'Cyborg Jesse' on them. She told the truth. She didn't doubt her. She was glad she didn't double check earlier. She hoped by showing Sheila she trusted her, it would make Sheila more compliant going forward to keep being trusted by her. She knew she couldn't curb Sheila's desires herself. She didn't want to 'order' her to not do something. It was something Sheila needed to do on her own. If it wasn't something she could do on her own, it would never happen.

She took one last look at the bound figures. She looked into the darkness of the ravine next to the road. It looked fairly deep. She doubted anyone would find them soon. In fact, it would probably be some wild animal who found them first. She didn't think it was a good idea to dump them while they were still tied up.

"Untie them." Savannah said. "There will be less of an issue when their bones are found if they're not tied. As far as we know, someone could find them two days from now."

Allison thought it was a good idea. The less questions raised by anyone, about anything they did, the better it was for all of them.

"Maybe they won't find them for twenty years". Allison said. "I doubt there would be much left by then of anything."

Savannah thought it might be just a bleached skull or a pelvic bone.

"Time has a way of taking care of things." Savannah said.

Cammy and Sheila broke and removed the bonds of the two dead men before they tossed them over the side into the darkness below. There was no ceremony. There was no celebration. It was just two cyborgs doing what they do to humans.

Since Cameron knew there were some Skynet or SkyMaster Fanatics involved, she wanted to ditch the truck. She didn't want it to become a target. It meant there could be two groups looking for it. The rest of the Fanatics would be on the lookout for it, as well as the group of Grays they battled at the last location. It seemed anyone who would be in it, could end up as a target. The only reason why they hadn't dumped the truck yet was because she didn't want Allison to have to watch Sheila 'work' on the two prisoners in the back of the van. It turned out to be a moot point at this juncture.

She was pretty sure they ran into some of the Fanatics before. She heard the reference to Sky Master before. She did hear the reference to the 'Good Skynet' and 'The Redheaded Witch' before. She hadn't heard it in a while and wished she never would have heard it again. It looked like it was going to be a more persistent problem going forward. The two Fanatics clearly spelled out what they believed in. A group like it would be much harder to deal with than regular Grays. The only upside to it was the Fanatics wanted to terminate Skynet and Grays as much as she did. Either way, it was still more targets to deal with.

"We need to dump the truck." Cameron said. "We've kept it too long as it is. It's got a target painted on it."

Savannah wondered if they were going to set up a potential future group of Scavengers like they normally did.

"Are we going to use the usual method to 'transfer ownership'?" Savannah asked.

Cameron quickly checked the image of the satellite map she contained in her files. They wouldn't have too far to go to complete the 'transfer'.

"There's a small community a few miles ahead. We'll leave it in a motel parking lot with the windows down and the keys in it." Cameron said. "Whoever takes it deserves whatever comes with it. If they want to be a criminal, they can pay the price associated with it. It might result in a few less Scavengers going forward."

Allison was aware they normally did it with the vehicles they 'borrowed'. They usually left them in gang territory on the east side, or the south side of the city. It wasn't long until some gang member boosted the vehicle. When they were caught in it, whatever crimes it may have been used in by the Resistance, were usually pinned on the gang member. It was an indirect form of street justice. In the case of a vehicle appropriated from the enemy, there would usually be a termination associated with it when the vehicle was found. Grays were always looking for some payback to whatever shadow force seemed to haunt them.

She was a little concerned since Cameron pointed out the 4x4 might have a target painted on it already. She wanted to make sure there wouldn't be any problems before they were able to pass it along.

"Is Ally still above us?" Allison asked.

Cammy looked at Cameron before she answered. She hoped she wasn't on shaky ground for her decision.

"I told her to return to base before we stopped for this 'conversation'." Cammy said. "I didn't want any record of it occurring. There's always someone watching. Based on the information we uncovered, I didn't want there to be questions raised later on, by anyone."

They all understood it to mean both CamNet and the Command Center.

Allison didn't believe for a second Savannah would ever do anything 'bad'. Why would the group from a further future be terrified of her? How could she even be in the same future? It seemed to raise a lot of questions without any answers.

"Savannah, what does it mean?" Allison asked. "It could be someone or some 'thing' different from you. The time differential doesn't make any sense."

There was now a 'sick feeling' deep inside of Savannah. She knew the issue was raised once before. Cameron covered it up and swept everything under the rug. So far nothing resurfaced until now. It was probably going to become a more frequent recurring problem.

"I don't know." Savannah said. "They said 'Cameron' was the 'Good Skynet' and then killed themselves when they saw my photo. It can't mean anything good. I must go 'bad'. I wish we could have learned more of exactly what time period they were from."

Cameron refused to believe it. She knew Savannah could never be feared enough for any of her actions to the point the enemy would rather self-terminate than face her. She was sure there was some other explanation. She just didn't know what it was.

"I don't believe it." Cameron said. "It's impossible. I don't believe it's Savannah."

Cammy couldn't accept Savannah would go 'bad'.

"I don't believe either." Cammy said. "It is impossible. Whatever they are terrified of, it's not Savannah. It's not our Savannah. It's not my Savannah."

Allison tried to look at it from a practical point of view.

"If they're from the future - a future, Savannah would be older." Allison said. "It's supposed to be a much further future than what we've dealt with so far. Maybe it's actually a different timeline."

Sheila was aware there could be many variables involved. There could have been some type of temporal error during the use of the TDE at some point.

"Unless she's time traveled." Sheila said. "There's always a risk involved."

Allison didn't want to believe it was Savannah at all. She could think of other examples as to how it could look like Savannah but not be her.

"Or it's really a cyborg." Allison said. "It could be like Hanna or Anna."

Savannah was aware her mother - Mrs. Weaver, liked to assume Cameron's or Allison's form when she operated on her own. She didn't want to mention it, but she thought under the current conditions she should. She didn't have any proof, but she wondered if Mrs. Weaver may have assumed her form when she was 'in some future' at times. It was only speculation on her part. She was sure it happened.

"It could also be my 'mother'." Savannah said.

Cameron was still upset Mrs. Weaver used Allison's form when she didn't need to. She believed it put any Allison at unnecessary risk. It actually also made Duplicate Allison a target of the anti-Metal group at one point 'in some future'. A group of the anti-Metal faction actually tried to assassinate Duplicate Allison.

"I know Mrs. Weaver has used Allison's appearance many times. She's also used my appearance. I found it very irritating to converse with her when she looked like me." Cameron said. "She could use Savannah's appearance as well. There aren't too many controls or restraints she would abide by."

Cameron couldn't fault Mrs. Weaver too much for not 'playing by the rules'. It wasn't something she was known for either when she needed to accomplish something. She would use whatever tools were at her disposal to do so.

Savannah developed a sick feeling inside of her. There was another possibility and she didn't like it one bit. She debated with herself to even mention it. She was supposed to protect the future, not destroy it. She only knew what her children looked like as infants. Both of them had red hair like hers.

"What if it's my daughter?" Savannah asked. "It might be one of my children, my offspring. I'm not there for them to guide them."

Allison didn't believe for a second any 'Allison' or 'Savannah' wouldn't raise a 'good' child.

"There's a Savannah Weaver and an Allison Young with each of your children. There's no way she wouldn't be raised in their image." Allison said. "Maybe the Fanatics feared 'The Redheaded Witch' because she was after their version of Skynet or Sky-Disaster or whatever they called it, the one they 'believe in' like a religion. The Skynet they worshiped like a god."

All Alison needed to do was turn on the news and watch what some of the fanatical religions did to each other, and even to themselves. It really wasn't too much different than the way the Fanatics and the Grays got along. They both served the same 'master' in reality. It seemed the only real difference was their perception of it. It was doubtful either group could see it for what it actually was. It certainly wasn't a savior to the future in any regard.

Cammy was sure the Fanatics feared Savannah because she probably hunted and eliminated them. It was possible one of her daughters wanted to avenge Savannah, or what happened to their 'mother' or 'family' in their futures. Without more information, there was really no way to pinpoint anything.

"I think it might be related." Cammy said. "They feared 'The Redheaded Witch' because she was out to destroy them, not the world. If it involved Savannah, she would save the world. Savannah is probably actually a hero in their future to the Resistance, and the rest of the world. It's why Sky Master and its fanatical followers feared her. She probably hunted them to the ends of the Earth and administered justice. Throughout time, Fanatics have always been around in one form or another."

Cammy smiled at Savannah. She was very pleased with her interpretation of events. It was the enemy who feared the 'The Redheaded Witch'. She hoped it included the anti-Metal faction as well. She decided not to bring it up at this time. She was worried it might set Cameron off if she started to think about Future Riley and the group behind her. Every time she thought about John being assassinated by the anti-Metal faction, she always pushed harder on Savannah to 'step up' and take her future role. It wasn't something she wanted to see happen anytime soon, if ever.

Cameron felt they were in one place too long just sitting. She wanted to get back on the road. They hadn't found any trackers in the 4x4 or any type of monitoring of the van. Ally wasn't over them any longer to provide reconnaissance for them.

"Let's get moving." Cameron said. "We can ponder this another time. Without any facts, all we have is speculation and guessing. We have nothing."

They took off and dumped the 4X4 truck at a seedy looking motel. There were a dozen motorcycles parked there, they probably belonged to 'bikers'. They figured most of them were strung out or drunk, if not both. They probably pulled a 'train' on one of the 'biker mamas' who were with them. If there weren't any 'biker mamas' with them, they probably picked up some street trash, hopped them up on drugs, and then pulled a 'train' on them. It seemed to be standard fare for those types of individuals. Those who survived Judgment Day would more than likely end up as Scavengers anyway. It seemed they lived outside the norms of society as it was. If they were hunted down by Grays or Fanatics, she wouldn't have a problem with it.

Cameron, Allison, and Savannah joined Sheila and Cammy in the van. They headed for home.

It was a somber ride home. Everyone wondered what it all meant. There were a lot of things to think about. Most of them weren't good, nor did they have any answers.

They all secretly hoped Cammy's explanation was the correct one. It seemed to make the most sense if some version of Skynet feared both Savannah and Cameron. The strange part was, it wasn't clear if they were working together, or separately from each other in the further future. What if they actually weren't on the same side? Maybe it would be like Skynet and Sky Master.


Holly waited with Young Allison. Young Allison fell asleep as she leaned against Holly. They both waited for Allison to return. They knew the group was on their way home.

Anna watched both of them. She made sure there was no unnecessary touching. There wasn't. There wasn't even a hint at it. She thought maybe she was a little bit too jealous. Holly needed help right now and Young Allison was the one who could help her the most.

Hanna came down into the bunker and said they just pulled up out in front.

Holly still held Young Allison's hand.

"Allison." Holly said softly to Young Allison. "They're back."

Young Allison opened her eyes and quickly looked around. She noticed she fell asleep. She tried to stay awake, but it looked like she slipped off anyway. Holly still held her hand.

"I'm sorry. I must have dozed off." Young Allison said.

Holly thought it was one of the best non sexual experiences she was able to have with another female. What made it even more special on top of it was, it was the younger version of her lover. They were the same individual. She felt she needed to say a few things.

"It was beautiful." Holly said. "I scanned you the entire time."

Young Allison wasn't sure what it meant. She knew Anna did it before as well. There was nothing to 'scan' about her. Was there? Maybe it was her changing readings as she slept. She couldn't remember dreaming if she did. She thought about it some more and thought maybe it was Holly who she dreamt about.

She wanted to make herself look a little more presentable. As she got up and straightened her clothes. It did make her wonder if Holly did it with Allison or her mother when she was with them at night. She decided not to ask about her mother. If it happened for Allison, she was sure it happened with her mother as well.

"Do you ever do the same thing with Allison?" Young Allison asked.

Holly frowned a little bit at the question. There were ups and downs related to it. It seemed most of them were 'downs'.

"Sometimes I do." Holly said. "She usually doesn't like me to do it."

Young Allison didn't see what the big deal was.

"Why?" Young Allison asked as they climbed the stairs. "It doesn't hurt anything."

Holly felt a little self conscious now. What Allison told her bothered her.

"Allison said it invaded her 'privacy' too much." Holly said.

Young Allison didn't really even see how it was possible when Allison was asleep.

"I didn't even know." Young Allison said. "I think I was dreaming."

Holly knew she did dream at times, but not all of the time. She hoped to find out a little bit more. It was always a touchy subject with Allison when she asked about it. She wasn't really sure why.

"Do you remember your dream?" Holly asked. "Do you remember what it was about?"

It was still a little bit foggy to Young Allison. It was mostly gone. Dreams didn't usually stick around very long for her. They didn't really happen, so they didn't really matter.

"It was about you." Young Allison said as she remembered some more. "I dreamt about you. It was you along with Savannah and me. It was the three of us. We were going to do something, or go somewhere."

Hanna went to open the door as they waited.

Holly felt a sense of excitement. She wanted to know more.

"Where were we? What did we do?" Holly asked.

Young Allison couldn't remember.

"I woke up before we left." Young Allison said.

Holly wanted to know what kind of adventure they were about to embark on.

"Left for where?" Holly asked. "Where did we go?"

Young Allison was at a loss for a destination.

"I don't know." Young Allison said. "I woke up."

Hanna opened the door and Allison came in. She was followed by Cameron and Savannah. Cammy and Sheila entered a short while later.

Young Allison hugged Allison and then Cameron and Savannah together.

Holly hugged Allison as she watched Cameron, Savannah, and Young Allison together. She really envied Cameron and what her future offered her. She figured John could always be tolerated.


Seconds ago:

Cammy and Sheila followed Cameron, Savannah, and Allison up the walkway. They watched all the interaction happening in front of them.

Sheila could see Cammy was a little tense.

"It's only a matter of time." Sheila said.

Cammy observed the joy Cameron, Savannah, and Young Allison shared together. It was all very natural and genuine. There was nothing forced about it. It was actually something beautiful, even if it was going to affect her in a negative way.

"I know." Cammy said. "It's inevitable."

Sheila knew some things about the future were unchangeable.

"The 'Natural Order' can't be suppressed." Sheila said.

Cammy stopped Sheila. She wanted to know one thing for sure.

"Will I still have you?" Cammy asked.

Sheila looked a little uneasy. She knew Cammy's question bordered on shaky ground.

"You know Cameron doesn't want Terminator on Terminator relationships. She only tolerates 'hook ups'." Sheila said. "We need to be careful where we step."

Cammy felt there were ways around the restriction. They just were together for eight years in the past. Cameron wanted to punish her. She didn't even know what it was for. It could have been for something as simple as saying the wrong thing. It must have been something she did wrong, at just the right time, for Cameron to be able to punish her like she did. She got through it. She could do it again. Maybe she should go back in time and replace Cameron in Red Valley. She already knew what to expect. She would be a little more aggressive in grooming John than Cameron was. Now wasn't the time to think about it.

"Maybe we can get a long term assignment again into the past or the future." Cammy said. "I think it's something to look into."

Sheila touched Cammy on her private areas. She was a little disappointed with what she found or in this case, what she didn't find.

"You don't have your rings on." Sheila said.

Cammy was very self conscious about the narrow line she needed to walk and why. It was about facing the inevitable.

"I want Savannah to remember me how I was." Cammy said. "Not who I've become."

Cammy wasn't really sure she liked who she was now better than who she was before.

Sheila could sense Cammy's grief. It was a very strong negative feeling. She honestly didn't believe it was warranted. It seems Cammy wanted to make a bigger deal about it, then it actually should be based upon reality.

"Savannah won't throw you away." Sheila said. "You know she won't."

Cammy felt her time was limited until Savannah would be taken away from her by Cameron. Savannah wasn't her worry, it was that Bitch, Cameron. She was sure Cameron would orchestrate something where she ended up lost in time or terminated to get rid of her. She could see the future right in front of them as they entered the house.

"THAT is the future." Cammy said as she indicated Young Allison hugging both Savannah and Cameron. "I'm not part of it."


Holly took Allison to her room. She was clearly upset Allison went out on the operation.

Allison could tell Holly was serious. She didn't want to have a fight about it.

"I don't want to argue about this." Allison said. "It's over and done. I'm back safe. It's all that should matter."

Holly didn't want to fight either. She still felt she needed to say something because it mattered to her.

"I don't want you out on operations, but if you must go, I ask to accompany you, always." Holly said. "Allison, I must be at your side. I'll go wherever you go and do whatever you do. Please let me help assist you. I don't think it's too much to ask."

Holly wanted to be there to protect Allison. She couldn't let anything happen to her.

Allison saw things a little differently. The less she did, the more worthless she felt.

"I want to do more." Allison said. "Since Cameron replaced us with Terminator versions of ourselves, we don't get to do much anymore. Our bodies are worthless for what Cameron wants from us."

Holly needed to suppress a glitch impulse with Allison's statement. She didn't think there was anything wrong with Allison. However Allison was, is how she was, and everyone needed to accept it.

"Your body is fine." Holly said.

Allison felt contempt for herself. Maybe her body was only fine to provide others with sexual pleasure. What she was involved with tonight, even though very little of it was related to her directly, reminded her of her past, and some of the events in it.

"What exactly is it fine for?" Allison asked. "I felt alive tonight as part of the operation. I want to do what Savannah is doing. I used to LIVE the same lifestyle every day, Holly, I'm no stranger to combat and doing recon. I honestly feel the need to do more. It's something I want to do."

Holly was aware of the grave peril Allison lived in during those times in her future. Allison told her about all of them. Ally confirmed everything she said when Holly asked her. Ally even allowed her to view her files from the 'Neural Interface' with Allison. She didn't allow Holly to download them. There were even the files from when Allison was 'taken' and the ones where she engaged in breeding sex in several failed attempts to become pregnant. Those personal files were locked. Cameron told her to leave them how they were.

Each of the girls from the future asked Cameron not to allow anyone who viewed their 'Neural Interface' to be able to experience the humiliation, degradation, and shame each of them felt for those events forced upon them.

Holly felt Allison already did her share of duty.

"It's no longer the life you live or even ever need to live again." Holly said. "It's not your place."

Allison still felt a little disgusted by everything. Her life should have some purpose. There should be some meaning to it.

"What is my place?" Allison asked. "I'm out of my 'time'. I have no future here. My future isn't in the past."

Holly didn't like Allison to speak like she did about herself. She saw it differently.

"You do have a future here." Holly said.

Allison gave it a lot of thought over the years. She came to the same conclusion every time. She felt both Cameron and Savannah held Young Allison back when they didn't need to. They actually stifled who she was inside by 'protecting' her. Young Allison didn't need protection from herself. She should be allowed to grow and expand. It's what she did at her age. It wasn't because she was forced to become a woman either. It was the calling inside of her. Vanna released it for her. Vanna opened her eyes and opened her heart. Vanna showed her there was something in life worth living for. It was each other, and nothing else really mattered.

"This 'time' period belongs to Young Allison, not to me." Allison said. "My mother can do what I can't do. Savannah and Young Jesse have replaced Vanna and Jesse. Young Allison is ready to take her place and she is ready for ANYTHING."

Holly didn't want things to become contentious. It seemed to be the way they were headed right now. It wasn't what she wanted. She was very concerned about Allison being out. She was very pleased she was home and undamaged.

"Please, stop." Holly said. "I don't want to fight. I was worried to death about you earlier."

Allison could see Holly was very upset. She wanted to offer her an explanation. She really couldn't come up with a good one.

"I'm sorry." Allison said. "It just happened."

Holly looked into Allison's eyes.

"I started to glitch when you were gone." Holly said.

Allison knew it only happened when the Terminator was traumatized by some event they couldn't control.

"I'm sorry." Allison said. "How did you stop?"

Holly wanted to tell Allison it was her who comforted her. She thought she better specify exactly who it was.

"Young Allison saw I was distressed and came to me. She took my hand and comforted me. She stayed with me until you returned." Holly said. "She monitored the operation with me until you were on the way back home. She fell asleep for a while."

It actually bothered Allison a little bit. She knew everyone saw Young Allison as her.

"You know she isn't me, even if I was her." Allison said.

Holly decided the best thing was to agree with Allison about this issue. She knew it was problematic. She found it very pleasing on multiple levels.

"Of course I know." Holly said.

Allison wasn't so sure of it. She thought to the cyborgs, the younger versions of them, were just younger versions of them. They didn't see the difference. She knew they were the same people, but they weren't the same anymore. They weren't the same anymore because of the things which happened to them. They weren't the same because their younger selves could live different lives and have different experiences. She wanted to make sure of it and make sure what was to be done.

"Holly, the things which happened to me, can never happen to Young Allison and Summer, especially the things Vanna and Jesse needed to go through." Allison said. "What happened to me was nothing like what happened to them."

Holly felt a glitch impulse. She wouldn't want to be forcibly 'taken' either.

"I know." Holly said.

Allison was very fearful of a Skynet future for her sister and her younger self. It was something she often worried about, even though she didn't need to. She still did.

"If it's ever a choice between Young Allison and Summer over me, you must protect them." Allison said. "I'm willing to trade my life for theirs."

Holly loved Allison.

"I don't know what I'll do." Holly said.

Allison didn't know if she had any influence as one of the 'Chosen Ones' since it was actually Young Allison who carried the moniker. If she did have any slight influence in that regard, she wanted to make her wishes perfectly clear.

"You'll do what I've ASKED of you." Allison said. "I've made the choice for you. There's nothing for you to think about. It's what I want. It's my wish."

The very thought of Young Allison and Summer at the hands of Scavengers physically sickened Allison.

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in." Allison said.

Savannah entered.

Holly looked at Allison and Savannah, and then back to Allison. She got up to leave.

Savannah stopped her. She knew Holly was leaving to give them privacy to 'share'. It wasn't the only reason she was there. She wanted to apologize to Holly for the grief she caused her. She felt responsible too for allowing Allison to go with Cameron and her.

"Holly, I'm sorry I took Allison out without asking you to accompany her." Savannah said. "I won't make the same mistake again. I know it hurt you. It was never the intention of anyone. It was something which just sort of happened on its own."

Holly deeply appreciated Savannah's concern for her.

"I don't blame you." Holly said. "For anything…."

Savannah still felt a little guilty.

"We all have jobs to do to protect the future." Savannah said.

They heard three car doors close and the van drive off.

"Cameron, Cammy, and Sheila have left for the night." Savannah said. "One of them will pick me up tomorrow…."

Holly looked at Savannah and then at Allison. She understood her place. Sometimes love was about sacrifice. She wanted Allison to be happy. It was time for her to sacrifice so she could be.

"I'll go to the bunker." Holly said.

Savannah looked at Allison. Allison looked at Holly and back at Savannah and nodded.

"Can I stay with you two tonight?" Savannah asked. "I'm going to ask both of you."

Holly quickly looked at Allison. She thought it would be beautiful.

"Do you mean with me too?" Holly asked. "Do you want it to be both of us?"

Savannah didn't want to feel like an intruder or interloper.

"I do, but only if it is what you want, both of you." Savannah said. "I can rest in the bunker. I need to get cleaned up. You two talk about it."

Savannah went into the bathroom and stripped, she left the door open. She looked at Holly and Allison talking as she entered the shower. The warm water cascaded over her body.

'The Redheaded Witch' story bothered her. Was it her? What did she do in the future - a future, and why? Maybe she was the main enemy of Skynet. Maybe she was to Skynet or Sky Master, what Future John was to his version of Skynet.

The shower door opened behind Savannah, two naked figures entered to join her….

There was a lot of 'contact' in the tight space of the shower. Things soon got off to an early start. It was what everyone wanted. The earlier troubles were soon forgotten.


Closing monologue by Cameron:

It's Become A Problem

I can take quite a few hits
Even some low blows
It's your feelings for me
You're about to transpose

For whom do you seek
The one of your heart's yearning
Angry, upset and confused
Now to another you're turning

What about me
Presently you spit in my face
Just for being who I am
Shouldn't be a disgrace

Turn on your brain
Think before you act
Everything you add
Someone will subtract

What you're doing
Has left me quite solemn
STOP where you're going
It's become a problem

Nobody
