Chapter 1076

Before You Do

Cameron was out on an 'off the books' operation with Cammy and Anna earlier. She was back at the base now. She cleaned up and crawled naked into bed next to John. He was still asleep.

She was about ready to whisper in his ear. It was time to 'condition' him to accept his destiny. She heard him say a name. She hoped it was 'Savannah' or 'Allison'.

It wasn't.

Cameron knew she was warned about it. She continuously threw different names and scenarios out there for John as part of his 'conditioning'. There was a more recent name added to the list. It was someone very well acclimated to the things which occurred on a more domestic level. It was someone who was good around the home, was very personable, extremely skilled with domestic and social abilities, and acclimated to what goes on with married life, for better or for worse. She was also very beautiful.

It was - Claire.

She wanted John protected from assassination by the anti-Metal faction. Human females at his side would help prevent it. If he was only surrounded by Terminators, mainly her, it made him a target. The anti-Metal faction seemed extremely focused on her. She didn't care for the fact she was referred to as, 'the Little Metal Bitch who followed John Connor around'. She took measures to help protect John going forward.

Cameron knew she was pushing Claire on John. Now he seemed to be responding. She thought about going to get Claire and bring her to John's bed. Since Claire was already carrying Allison and John's baby, it was unnecessary at this time. Claire was probably upset with her about Young Allison. In the future, if Savannah and Young Allison didn't deliver. Claire was going to, literally.

She lay in bed with John for about two hours. There was nothing for her to do there besides look at the ceiling in the darkness, and listen to John snore. It was very boring. When there was little for her to do, it was easy for some things to creep into her mind and stay there. They usually weren't good things either. There were quite a few things to think about on the recent 'off the books' operation she went on with Cammy and Anna. Human trafficking was never a good subject to deal with. She knew what the girls from the future did to escape the reality of where they were. Escape may be momentary, but it was there. She could do things to allow the escape to last a little longer.

She took the opportunity to pleasure herself twice, internally and externally. She replayed those files in a loop. It helped take her mind off of other things and kept her within a circle of pleasure. There wasn't anything to think about, other than how nice some things currently felt.

Cameron felt John roll over and his arm slammed into her. John stirred and mumbled something. It was what she wanted to hear. She heard 'Savannah' this time. She carefully reached down and started to touch John. He was ready. She thought things were good to go, once 'everything' was good to go. She felt she caught him at the right moment during REM sleep. It was very similar to when she returned a couple hours ago.

She carefully placed herself over John and went to work. She very gently and slowly moved. She didn't want to wake John if she could help it. She wanted him to have a 'special dream'. She hoped she didn't hear the name 'Riley'. If she did, she knew the reference would actually be to Future Riley.

Cameron never did what she tried now with John before. It was a first for both of them. She was aware of the physical reaction both males and females experienced during the last part of a dream. There was no reason she couldn't make this dream a reality for John. If he was dreaming about one of the girls, she would give him the 'part' he wanted the most. Everything was good as she silently moved.

Savannah opened her eyes. 'Cameron' was there next to her. She was a young teenager. Wait. She blinked her eyes and cleared her mind. It was Young Allison and she slept peacefully. She remembered they went to bed together last night. It was like a sleepover. There was no sexual aspect to it. It looked like there was something on the other side of Young Allison.

Anna popped her head up on the far side of Young Allison and looked at her. It made her wonder who else was there. She turned her head to the other side. Cammy looked back at her. There was a smile on her face.

Savannah didn't speak, but nodded her head in the direction of the restroom. Cammy carefully got out of the bed, and so did she. She headed for the bathroom and Cammy followed her. She noted Cammy was dressed. She wouldn't have been surprised if Cammy would have been naked. If it was just the two of them, she knew she would have been. It was the room they normally shared so it wouldn't have been anything out of the ordinary.

She looked at the clothes Cammy wore.

"Are those Hanna's clothes?" Savannah asked quietly.

Savannah was with Vanna when they picked them out several years ago. They were since re-gifted to Hanna.

Cammy looked down at the clothes she currently wore.

"Yes." Cammy said. "They're very nice."

Savannah didn't know if she should ask why she was wearing them or see if Cammy offered any explanation. Cammy didn't. She wanted to know the reason. If it would be Cameron, she would suspect there was some type of damage. It may be the same thing for Cammy and she doesn't want to say.

"May I ask why you're wearing Hanna's clothes?" Savannah asked.

Cammy didn't see it as a big deal. It was one of the things Cameron did at least a few times a month. She tagged along sometimes. Usually it was Ally and Sheila. Sheila liked to go as often as she could.

"We took down a sex trafficking ring last night." Cammy said. "We didn't want to change our clothes here and disturb Young Allison or you."

Savannah immediately looked over at Anna and saw she was similarly attired.

"It must be why Anna is wearing Hanna's clothes as well." Savannah said.

Cammy didn't think it was a big deal. It was part of their ongoing operations to help protect the future.

"It is." Cammy said. "Our other garments were a little bloody. It wasn't any of our 'blood'. None of us received any damage."

Savannah didn't think they should have used Anna. She knew it would have bothered Young Allison greatly if Anna was damaged. Wait. She figured it would be more than bothered about what Anna did if she was bait. Young Allison would have gone herself instead if she knew about it.

"How did you use Anna?" Savannah said. "Did you use her as bait?"

Cammy thought the operation went down smoothly.

"Yes." Cammy said. "We sold her."

Savannah didn't really want to hear it.

"You sold her?" Savannah asked. "Why would you sell her?"

Cameron enlisted the aid of some of her Terminators. They were also there to back them up if the need arose. She decided to use them at the last minute because Anna was along. She was worried about Anna being damaged as well and the distress it would cause Young Allison.

"Actually it was Larry and Hank who did." Cammy said. "They just happened to be in the area when we arrived."

Savannah knew Cameron only used female Terminators on her 'off the books' operations. She quickly glanced back at the bed and looked at Young Allison. She wouldn't be surprised to find out exactly why Hank and Larry were in the area at the same time.

"Cameron doesn't usually use them." Savannah said.

Cammy was actually a little surprised when Hank and Larry were near the location waiting for them. It actually sped up the procedure so it could be concluded earlier. They didn't need to wait for Anna to be 'picked up'. Larry and Hank took her directly into the location to sell her.

"Cameron wanted to make sure Anna remained undamaged." Cammy said.

Savannah hoped all of the future Scavengers were terminated.

"I assume all of the perpetrators were sent to the 'Promised Land'." Savannah said.

Cammy didn't think there was any other destination. Since Sheila didn't go with them, there was no need to leave someone who was 'punished' behind alive to send a message. Sheila would usually let them live their 'new life' for a few months before she tracked them down and finished the job. It was normally how long it took for all of the hormones to be out of their system. She liked their 'new look' to sink in so the perpetrator could wallow in their own misery.

"Of course they were terminated." Cammy said.

Savannah looked at the bathroom.

"I need to use the restroom for a little bit." Savannah said. "When nature calls, no one stalls."

Cammy felt like 'Cameron' for neglecting Savannah's needs. It was one of the things she always called out Cameron about. She didn't want to be a Bitch like Cameron was. She was glad she wasn't like Cameron.

"I'm sorry." Cammy said. "I'm as bad as Cameron is about it now."

Savannah always made it work. She didn't like to bother Cameron about her necessities unless it was absolutely necessary.

"I manage." Savannah said.

Cammy waited outside the bathroom while Savannah took care of business. She could hear Savannah. She washed her hands, and then her face. Savannah finished by brushing her teeth.

Savannah exited the bathroom and looked over at Young Allison. She was still fast asleep on her side, facing them. She slipped off her night shirt as Cammy watched.

Cammy took in Savannah's beautiful topless figure. She wore only her underwear.

Savannah stood in front of Cammy. She knew the Metal girls always wanted to scan her. She was actually surprised it hadn't happened yet.

"Are you going to scan me?" Savannah asked.

Cammy was aware the human girls were a little uneasy about being scanned at times. She already took care of what was necessary earlier.

"I did it before you woke up." Cammy said. "I know it bothers you sometimes. I don't like to intrude if I can help it."

Savannah understood they were worried about her health. She knew they were even more worried about the health of Vanna's baby she carried. She was ready to move the day along.

"In that case, give me a kiss." Savannah said. "I brushed my teeth already."

Cammy took Savannah in her arms and pulled Savannah in close as she gave her a deep kiss.

Savannah glanced over at Young Allison. She was still asleep.

Cammy saw where Savannah looked. She knew what the future held. It most likely wasn't going to be her, at least not very often.

"One day soon it will be her kissing you, right here." Cammy said.

Savannah didn't want the conversation to go there, especially so early in the day. She wanted it to be so. She just didn't want to complicate Young Allison's life sooner than it needed to be complicated. She couldn't help but think all the restrictions were her own doing, to benefit her by not needing to concentrate more on Young Allison sooner. Maybe it was a combination of everything. She didn't want to neglect Cammy either.

"Today it's you." Savannah said. "It's all that really matters."

Savannah looked at what was on her dresser. She was somewhat surprised at what she saw there.

"What's with the flight suits?" Savannah asked.

Cammy was informed by Cameron what the game plan was going to be for the day. She assigned her the task to make sure everything was ready for the girls. It was.

"Cameron wanted to take you and Young Allison up today." Cammy said. "You'll be able to get some stick time in."

Savannah wondered if it was a short flight. She wasn't sure if it was just to take Young Allison home. She thought if there were no operations pending, maybe they could get in a little longer flight. She didn't want to influence Cameron's decision. She decided to play it cool for now.

"Are we flying back to Palmdale?" Savannah asked.

Cammy figured it was probably the end point. She really didn't know. Cameron was purposely vague when she told her what the plan was. It was rather irritating not to have a better answer. She was very pleased she wasn't a Bitch like Cameron was.

"I think it's the final destination." Cammy said.

Savannah was filled with a new sense of excitement. She hoped they could go on a longer flight. She knew it would please Young Allison immensely. The last few times they flew together, there were always a few interruptions. There was more than a little drama involved with the flights. Usually Skynet got involved somehow. They ran into some trouble with the Syndicate as well. Maybe today would be different. Maybe it wouldn't be.

"When is takeoff time?" Savannah asked.

Cammy wasn't given a specific time. It was something else which was irritating. She like to follow a set schedule so everything could be done at the proper time.

"Takeoff time will be when everyone is up and ready." Cammy said.

Savannah wanted Cammy to go with them. She wasn't sure how big the aircraft would be. It could be the Cessna again or even the Beechcraft.

"Are you going with us?" Savannah asked.

Cammy didn't look very thrilled. It made her think Cameron really was a Bitch. She always did what she could to get in her way with Savannah.

"Cameron didn't invite me." Cammy said.

Savannah looked at what was on the dresser and thought Cameron did. It appeared to her to be a non verbal invite. She was aware Cameron and Cammy often butted heads. It was her personal experience Cameron and Cammy were very much alike in almost everything they did. She thought it was funny sometimes because they thought they were both totally different from each other. They weren't. It was as amusing as it was upsetting to her to know they each thought the other one was a Bitch, and they were glad they weren't like them.

"Is Cameron going to come here to change?" Savannah asked.

Cammy was unsure what the Bitch was going to do. She was still upset Cameron couldn't give her any better answers earlier.

"I don't know." Cammy said. "There was no indication she planned to."

Savannah pointed at the dresser.

"There are four flight suits here." Savannah said. "There's one for each of us."

Cammy turned and looked at the other three flight suits sitting on top of the dresser.

"I guess there is." Cammy said.

Savannah could tell there were going to be at least five of them. It would take a larger aircraft, if Cameron went. There was the possibility she would be tied up. They were always last minute things which could happen. Everything was always in flux.

"Which plane are we flying in?" Savannah asked.

Cammy wasn't given any details. She asked Cameron several times what type of aircraft they would use. She figured if they all went, they would need something a little larger. She thought they might even take a helicopter. They could either take the Blackhawk or pick up an UH-1 Iroquois from Van Nuys. There were several of them available for use.

"I'm not really sure." Cammy said. "I don't even know if it'll be a fixed wing or a rotary wing."

Savannah was sure Cammy and Anna were invited. There were flight suits for all of them. She planned to use a little of her influence with whatever was going to happen. If they needed a larger aircraft, then they would need to procure one. She looked at Cammy with love in her eyes.

"I'm inviting you." Savannah said. "We'll figure it out. I want you to go with me."

Cammy beamed a big smile back at Savannah. She knew Savannah would never throw her away, even if she ended up on the back burner. She would be happy with whatever scraps she could hold on to.

"Thank you." Cammy said.

She noticed Cammy was still dressed in Hanna's clothing.

"Put your flight suit on." Savannah said.

Cammy quickly stripped down.

Savannah was excited to watch Cammy take her clothes off.

"It's my turn to 'scan' you." Savannah said.

Savannah fondled Cammy's jewelry for a short time along with her breasts.

They both got dressed in their flight suits.

Earlier:

Young Allison lay on her side. She actually was awake before Savannah woke up. She watched Savannah and Cammy through one partially open eye. She saw Savannah and Cammy 'interact'. She was aware Anna was next to her, actually it was in back of her at this point.

It excited her to watch them with each other as they kissed and touched. She felt a little jealous at times, but not right now. She liked being in the room with them as they touched each other. She knew one day it would be her instead of Cammy with Savannah. She was aware Anna was scanning her when 'it happened'. She was squeezing her thighs together with a mild rubbing motion and concentrating on Savannah and Cammy. It was when Savannah touched Cammy's rings it sent her over the top.

She rolled over on her back as Anna moved her hand away.

Anna looked at her and smiled.

Young Allison was worried about what happened. She didn't expect to 'finish', at least not like she did. She wondered if Anna would say anything.

Anna was well aware of what happened. She was actually quite surprised when I did. It pleased her immensely to scan Young Allison as it occurred. She could see Young Allison was a little concerned. She wanted to put her mind at ease. She was there to protect Young Allison, not compromise her.

"It'll be our secret." Anna whispered. "Nobody will know."

Young Allison was a little embarrassed but not much.

"Thanks." Young Allison said. "It just 'happened'."

Young Allison sat up in the bed and Anna sat up too.

"Hello." Young Allison said.

Savannah took her eyes off of Cammy and looked over at the bed.

"Hello." Savannah said back to her with a smile. "Did you have a good sleep?"

Young Allison thought it was, especially the 'ending'.

"It was very beautiful." Young Allison said.

Young Allison looked forward to the day when she would be able to spend a lot more time in Savannah's bed when it was just the two of them. There were a lot more things she wanted to do than just sleep.

Cammy filled her in on what was happening.

Young Allison went and used the restroom and cleaned up.

Anna and Young Allison put their flight suits on.

Young Allison was surprised at how well it fit. It actually accentuated her figure instead of masking it. She noted it was the same for Savannah and Cammy.

"Hey, this one is exactly my size." Young Allison said.

Cammy knew why it was.

"Cameron altered it just for you." Cammy said.

Young Allison was very pleased to hear it. She liked the way Cameron took care of everything for her.

"Cameron is the greatest." Young Allison said.

Cammy leaned over and straightened Young Allison's collar. She didn't usually like to equate herself with Cameron. She thought in this situation a little reminder didn't hurt.

"I'm 'her' you know." Cammy whispered in Young Allison's ear. "We're identical…."

Young Allison was going to reply, but she saw Anna look at them. One day she would be identical to both Cammy and Cameron. In reality, they would actually be identical to her since they were both based off of her DNA. She thought a hasty retreat was in order, along with a subject change.

"What's for breakfast?" Young Allison asked.

Savannah wanted some 'home cooking'.

"I hoped you were going to make some." Savannah said.

Young Allison liked to use the skills her mother taught her. She also hoped to use the skills she witnessed her mother use on other females too.

"I'd love to." Young Allison said. "Let's go."

Savannah and Young Allison headed out. Cammy and Anna followed. They allowed the girls to get out of earshot.

Cammy issued a secret challenge to Anna in regards to Young Allison. She liked the way Young Allison responded to her.

"I'll have her before you do." Cammy whispered to Anna. "You know it too."

Anna looked Cammy square in the face. She believed the honor belonged to her. It was a privilege which should never be misused in any way.

"We'll see." Anna said.

Anna and Cammy both shared Cameron's program. A competition could get ugly. It was one of the reasons why Cameron and Cammy butted heads so often over Savannah. It was really 'Cameron' in competition with herself for Savannah's attention and affection. The difference was, Cammy was allowed to act on her own, as well as to Savannah's desires and needs. It was a step Cameron wasn't ready to take yet herself for some unknown reason.

Earlier Cameron was able to stimulate John during his sleep.

She was able to get John there in his sleep without waking him. She didn't hear any more names after Savannah's. She hoped it was a good thing.

Cameron didn't finish herself in this instance. She actually did it twice on her own before she started on John. Everything on her was good to go at that point. She didn't want to wake him yet. She carefully moved off of John and lay next to him again. She shook the bed a little once she was next to him. She saw his eyes open in the darkness.

He looked around a little.

She wanted to take control of the situation. She wanted to be the one in charge of the narrative.

"I'm sorry if I woke you." Cameron said.

John quickly realized Cameron was next to him. He was a little concerned at first because of whatever he dreamt. He knew he dreamt for sure, since it was Cameron there now.

"Hello, beautiful." John said.

He knew he just experienced one wild dream. He looked a little guilty.

Cameron rolled on top of him and gave him a deep kiss.

"Did you have pleasant dreams?" Cameron asked.

John was dreaming about Claire and Savannah, as well as some of the other girls. He didn't expect to wake up and find Cameron next to him. He hoped he hadn't said any of the names out loud. It seemed to be one wild dream he just experienced at the end. He was pretty sure it was what they called a 'special dream'. He didn't know it was actually because of Cameron's 'efforts'.

"I always have pleasant dreams when I dream about you." John said. "You're actually a dream come true in all regards. It's why I love you so much."

John looked around in the darkness.

Cameron knew John would need some refractory time. She wanted to see how he responded. It didn't appear he knew he actually finished for sure, even if he suspected it. She was in possession of the 'evidence'.

"Are you ready?" Cameron asked. "I'm here so we can make love. I came back just to be with you. I'm sorry if I wasn't there and you woke up during your sleep. I know you usually like to knock off a quickie when you do."

Now John did feel guilty. He dreamt exactly what Cameron just said. He was with Claire in the dream. He knocked off a quickie and it wasn't good enough for her since she didn't make it. She was actually upset with him because of it.

He knew it was one of the things Cameron told him he needed to make sure he accomplished when he was with Claire. He needed to provide her with a finish, no matter what he needed to do to make it happen. He always thought it was a little strange to hear his wife tell him to make sure another one of his sexual partners was satisfied to the fullest extent possible when they were together.

Cameron reached down to touch John. He moved away. He was sure he was going to need a tissue.

"I don't think so." John said. "I think I'm still tapped out from the previous activity. I'm not sure why."

Cameron played it up a little. She was aware when she wasn't around for a few days at a time, John was visited by 'Rosie'. She knew it was something John didn't like to talk about.

"You didn't start and finish without me, did you?" Cameron asked. "I hoped since I was here you didn't need to do it. You said it wasn't the 'same', even though the end result is the same."

John really wondered if he experienced a 'special dream'. He didn't think he ever experienced one before. There was a lot of manual stimulation on his part growing up, there still was. Cameron needed to fight the war a lot.

"I don't think so. I sort of feel that way." John said. "Did you just get here?"

Cameron continued the ruse.

"I arrived right when you woke up." Cameron said. "I saw Young Allison in the hall. She didn't see me. I came from the back way. She seemed like she was in a hurry to get back to her room."

It was a complete fabrication, even if it was based on an earlier event. Cameron wanted to see John's reaction. She tried not to laugh.

John looked more than a little nervous at this point. Young Allison was the last one he dreamt about. He didn't know Cameron whispered her name into his ear several dozen times before she mounted him.

"Really?" John asked.

Cameron could see how nervous John was at this point. She already 'made the cake'. Now it was time to put the 'icing' on it.

"Do you want me to go get her?" Cameron asked. "She's 'ready' you know. I saw her with a tissue. I wasn't sure why."

John reached down and felt himself. He knew what the feeling was from. He was sure he was just with someone in the last several minutes.

He was still unsure as to what happened earlier.

Cameron moved to 'assist' John. She knew what he needed to get ready.

"Do you want me to 'start you up'?" Cameron asked.

It caused John to almost panic attack. Cameron would know what he 'did'. He wished he knew what he did. He needed to get cleaned up first.

"Maybe I better use the restroom." John said.

John got up and headed for the bathroom and turned on the bathroom light. He checked himself out. There was a familiar feeling when he was with someone recently. It looked to him his 'dream' may have been 'real'. He looked for any traces of anything but couldn't spot any. He wondered if maybe something actually did happen….

Cameron entered the bathroom.

"What are you looking at?" Cameron asked.

John quickly let go of himself. He looked like a wet noodle at this point.

"Nothing…." John said.

Cameron thought about all of the jokes John and everyone else played on her over the years. Many of them she didn't understand at the time they were done they were a joke. She wanted to spice things up a little bit.

"Did you make love to someone while I was out?" Cameron asked as she looked at some evidence of what she indicated.

John was worried. He was unsure what happened. It was evident something did.

"No." John said. "I didn't. I think I had a dream."

Cameron wanted to press the issue a little bit more.

"Let me see." Cameron said.

Before John could move Cameron reached down and touched him.

"I think you were with a human female." Cameron said. "I'm checking the DNA."

John didn't know what was happening. He was really worried about what Cameron said in regards to Young Allison in the hallway.

"I swear I didn't do anything." John said.

Cameron looked at John. It was hard to keep a straight face.

"I know who this belongs to." Cameron said.

It was all news to John. If somehow it was Young Allison, he thought it was an honest mistake to make in the darkness. Everything about her was almost identical to Cameron. He wasn't sure he would be able to tell if he didn't think about it.

"I don't remember a thing." John said. "I swear, Cameron."

Cameron hoped to find who the last one John was thinking about was. She would concentrate her efforts on them to be with John. She wanted him protected from assassination.

"Were you thinking of someone when I arrived?" Cameron asked. "I mean someone else besides me since you can have me at any time. Maybe it was someone else who you secretly desire instead."

John could think of a multitude of names which passed through his mind. It was a holdover from all of the lonely nights he spent alone. Well, alone with 'Rosie'. He needed to have a little variety to properly stimulate himself.

"No." John said.

Cameron wanted a better answer.

"I heard a name." Cameron said.

John looked worried. He sure hoped it wasn't Riley. He was pretty sure she was at the beginning of his dream, not at the end.

"You did?" John asked.

Cameron held up her hand. She moved her thumb and index finger together in front of him. It was to indicate the evidence was in her hand. It would literally be in her hand.

"I did." Cameron said. "Confess. I have the DNA. I must say it's not what I expected."

John remembered the first night he was with Riley, Future Riley. Cameron touched his neck and named all the compounds which made up the lipstick on his neck. She probably even detected some saliva from Future Riley. He knew there was no way out of it. He figured he was busted on the names as well. It was all he remembered.

"I might have been thinking about Savannah or Claire." John said.

Cameron thought she could get a little more out of him. There were plenty of other names put into his head during his 'conditioning'.

"And…?" Cameron asked as she played it out.

John looked at Cameron's hand again. He figured there was no way out of this. He really didn't remember anything.

"Jesse, Vanna, Allison, and Young Allison…." John said.

Cameron almost burst out laughing, but was able to contain it.

"I thought so." Cameron said. "It seems I'm more of an afterthought anymore."

John was really worried now. He wanted to know who he was with. He really was worried it might be Young Allison. He didn't want to face Claire if it was. How could he explain it? He didn't think the 'mother - daughter thing' would happen anytime soon.

"Whose DNA is it?" John asked. "Tell me it isn't Young Allison."

Cameron didn't want John to have a panic attack.

"It isn't." Cameron said. "There is additional evidence regarding it."

Now John wondered who it was.

"Whose DNA is it?" John asked.

Cameron got a disgusted look on her face.

"This is a new low, even for you, John. It is Sarah's DNA." Cameron said. "Your - mother. Maybe those vulgar sayings I hear people use, are actually based on reality. I think it might be something a little more common than anyone will admit to."

John's mouth dropped slightly open.

"What?" John asked in shock.

Cameron held her hand in front of his face and continued to rub her thumb and index finger together. It was to indicate she held the proof in her hand.

"This is Sarah Connor's DNA." Cameron said. "Have you been sleeping with your mother? I would have expected this much sooner. Maybe it's been going on longer than I know."

John wondered where this absurd thought came from. He'd just watched Cameron run a 'test'.

"NO!" John said. "Never…."

John was afraid she was going to scan him to see if he was telling the truth or not. There were a few times the thought crossed his mind when he was younger. It was when he saw his mother naked on several occasions. He could see how beautiful she actually was, even with the scars from knives and bullet wounds.

Cameron could see John was perplexed.

"How long has this been going on?" Cameron asked. "No wonder you keep rejecting the girls. You have some 'steady' on the side. It's someone you know won't talk either. I wonder if it was all part of a master plan. Now I wonder if Jan is your sister, or actually your daughter. Technically, I guess she would be both."

John hoped Cameron was mistaken. He didn't see how anything like it was possible. It was years since he experienced any thoughts along those lines. He was much younger then. It was before Sarah hooked up with Charlie. Well, it was afterwards too, but not as much. He really liked her shapely figure. The part she said about Jan was a little mind blowing.

"Cameron, check it again." John said.

Cameron looked offended.

"Are you insinuating I made a mistake?" Cameron asked. "I don't think my integrity is what's in question here."

John figured he was in more trouble now. Now Cameron was presented with an additional reason to be angry at him.

"It has to be a mistake." John said. "I think I was with a female before you came back. I don't believe it was my mother."

Cameron reached down and touched John again. Her mouth dropped open slightly and there was even a more disgusted look on her face.

"WAIT." Cameron said.

John didn't think it could get worse. It did.

"What is it?" John asked.

Cameron decided to spin the tale a little further. She needed to use her Terminator abilities not to start laughing.

"I did make a mistake, sort of." Cameron said. "How dare you. Now I wish I wouldn't have double checked. This is your sister's DNA."

John felt like someone hit him in the forehead with a two by four.

"Jan?" John asked even more bewildered. "This can't be. I can't believe she would come to my room."

Cameron reached over and took a tissue to wipe her thumb and index finger off.

"I don't think she was the only one who came in your room. How dare you." Cameron said. "I don't think Sarah and Kyle are going to be happy about this."

A few moments ago he was worried about needing to face Claire. It seemed like the least of his worries right now. He didn't want to face his parents. He didn't want to face his mother. He was pretty sure he was in trouble. He wasn't sure what.

"Don't tell them." John said. "Cameron, something isn't right here."

Cameron shook her head from side to side with a stern look.

"I'll say." Cameron said. "I never figured you for a Hillbilly. I've heard the stories about what happens in the hill country. I thought they were just legends. I can see now they aren't."

Cameron was on the verge of bursting out laughing. She held it in check.

John looked down at himself. He touched the evidence too.

"I don't know what to say." John said.

Now he was worried his sister might end up pregnant. It was going to be a real problem.

Cameron pointed her finger at him.

"I want to mark this day down. What day is it?" Cameron asked. "What's the date?"

John tried to remember what day it was. He was more than a little confused about everything. He was pretty sure it was the new month already.

"It's the first, I think." John said.

Cameron tried to maintain a stern look on her face.

"What's the month?" Cameron asked.

John wondered how Cameron couldn't know. Maybe she was about to malfunction. With what he apparently did, she would probably treat him as she did the sex traffickers. He knew sometimes there were survivors for a specific reason. It was to let the other sex traffickers know what was coming for them, sooner or later. It was actually something they would never be able to do again.

"It's the first of April." John said.

Cameron waited.

It finally dawned on John.

Cameron started laughing.

John looked at her and then started to laugh too.

A wave of relief swept over John.

"You got me good." John said.

The smile on Cameron's face was gigantic.

"April Fools." Cameron said. "There are only nine hundred and seventy three to go. It was me. You 'took' me in your sleep. It may not have been me in your mind, but it was me where you delivered the goods."

John could still feel his heart pounding in his chest. It was hard for him to believe how Cameron just played him.

"I'm going to get you for this." John said.

Cameron and John were both laughing.

She gave John a kiss.

"Don't push your luck." Cameron whispered in his ear. "I can actually make any of those ideas you experienced, dreamt, or thought about, happen."

John was unsure what exactly she referred to. He knew many of them were about someone else other than her. He knew she knew it as well. He wasn't about to ask.

Closing monologue by Cameron:

Before You Do

Few things remain in balance
Without being knocked askew
Can the cause be predicted
Do they just happen out of the blue

Everything in one's life
Is open for review
What will they find
Before they are through

What subjects are good
Which ones are taboo
Can anyone still find
A different avenue

Many feelings were stunted
For the very few that grew
When they made their debut
Were they actually anything new

What holds it together
Does anyone have a clue
Some things can't be fixed
No matter with how much glue

Take some hard advice
When another you want to subdue
That you think twice
Before you do

Nobody
