Chapter 1127
Bold And Provocative
Cameron and the group exited the restaurant. They headed outside. Both of the vehicles were ready to go. Cammy and Bob were already inside one of the SUVs.
"I've been waiting for you." Bob said.
Savannah gave Young Allison a hug and a kiss on the cheek. She watched her and Anna leave and go back with the Detail. They were headed for the Young residence. She was glad Young Allison didn't put up a bigger protest and understood the situation for what it was. They needed to work together, and they did. Their main concern needed to be Cameron, and it was.
Bob was behind the wheel of the SUV. Cameron sat in the front with him. Savannah moved into the very back seat with Cammy. Kyle and Derek were in the middle seat.
Savannah thought about it some more. She didn't like keeping anyone in the dark. Since Ally was in the unknown and out of contact, she wanted everyone onboard. She told Cameron before they got into the SUV she wanted to bring everyone up to speed on what was happening as they drove to the waiting B-25. Cameron thought it was a very good idea.
The Reese brothers knew something 'bad' must have occurred and they wanted to be included. She told them she wanted to wait until a more appropriate setting to disclose everything. She hoped to know more by now, but was afraid she actually knew less. They were very pleased when Savannah told them she wanted them to know where they stood and what was happening. There was still a lot happening they didn't know.
"This is what is going on…." Savannah said.
Savannah filled them in on all the details she knew. Cameron was in contact with CamNet and Cammy dealt with John Henry. Cam's team waited at the motel for the sex traffickers to arrive. Ally was in the unknown at the club. There were no new details to add.
Derek listened to all the information. There were a few things which concerned him. The main one was how the operation actually started out earlier in the day.
"I understand Ally is in an unknown situation right now, and it is our primary concern." Derek said. "I'm just wondering if there's any follow up on the Fanatics."
Cameron continuously checked into it. There was still a drone which would monitor the area and look for any activity, or anyone who paid attention to the building or where the car or motorcycle was brought down at.
"So far there's nothing new." Cameron said. "I'm updated every few minutes on it and have been since the motorcycle was first spotted parked in front of the building."
Savannah glanced over at Cammy with Cameron's revelation. They exchanged a quick glance. Evidently Cameron knew everything going on, even as it went on. She probably actually knew more about what was happening than they did at any point in time.
Kyle was concerned about a few things as well.
"What about whichever group you thought the Fanatics were waiting for?" Kyle asked. "It indicates there's another serious threat out there in the form of Grays or the anti-Metal group."
Cameron didn't have any more information than she did previously.
"It all remains an unknown." Cameron said. "We don't think the current operation the Metal girls are on has any relation to any group from the future."
Cammy wanted to throw the possibility out there.
"We do know groups from the future have dealt in narcotics." Cammy said. "There's often a link between sex trafficking and drug dealing. In the current situation there's still no type of correlation between a group from the future and what appears to be an 'off the books' operation.
Derek wondered if he could inquire as to how often Cameron, or her group, conducted 'off the books operations'. Maybe it would be a better question for another time. There was the more pressing concern right now.
Kyle understood the need for 'off the books' operations to reduce the future Scavenger threat. He was pleased to know it was something Cameron dealt with in an unofficial capacity. He never liked what he saw in the future he came from related to it. They needed to focus on something else.
Derek and Kyle were ready to back up Ally. They weren't as worried about street punks or thugs as they were about Skynet and its operatives. They were still clearly a threat, but they weren't as big of a threat. The group of traffickers wouldn't have any Terminators with them. It would still be something they needed to watch out for based upon Cameron's report about groups from the future dealing in such illicit activity.
Savannah hoped it was for more than just for the location where Ally was at now. She wouldn't mind looking at any of the naked females either, but it would be something to do at another time. It didn't seem it would be any fun under the current conditions. She knew they cared about all the team members. They all did.
She still wanted to keep Cameron out of the fight. It was her main concern, right along with Ally's safety. She didn't want Cameron's sheath messed up before the honeymoon cruise tomorrow. Cammy, Cam, and Ally all told Savannah at different times during the week if Cameron was damaged, they would swap chips with her so she could have a 'clean' chassis and sheath for John. They all did it because they knew Savannah and Young Allison wanted John and Cameron to share. They also knew the girls would never ask them to 'sacrifice' their virtue either. They all knew Cameron was her program, not her chassis or sheath. As far as it went, John would never know anything was changed unless he was told. Only the program in the chassis separated them.
One time she was able to share with Cammy, Cam, Camille, and Ally at the same time. There was absolutely no difference on any part of their sheath from top to bottom, or anywhere in between. Things got better when Allison arrived for a complete comparison of what was available at the time. Everything else where it counted, was completely identical. The only thing which could have made it better would have been if Cameron joined them as well. She didn't.
Savannah was aware John would never know the difference, since there was none between those sheaths. They were all identical with Allison's DNA. Cameron said she was her program, not her chassis or sheath. What caught her by surprise was when CamNet contacted her and offered the use of her chassis and sheath as well for Cameron. They all understood love was about sacrifice. They were all willing to let Cameron use their chassis as her own chassis for the cruise with John so they could spend some time together alone. They all wanted them to have a chance to get away from it all. Any of the Terminators would trade with Cameron, even the males. The last prospect didn't bother her as much as she thought it would. She noticed the way John looked at males whenever she was out with him as she was growing up. She knew what she preferred for a sexual preference. Others may prefer something different. Evidently quite a few preferred both.
Even though her preference was for females, she was more than willing to try it with John if nothing else. She wanted to know what it was like and how it was different. She still planned to be at John side after Judgment Day, one way or the other.
It wasn't lost on Savannah if Cameron were forced to swap chassis, any of the ones she did it with, were all untouched by a male. Cameron could have a virgin chassis and sheath for her honeymoon. There was a certain poetic justice to it if it became necessary. It still bothered her how the donor of the chassis would feel about what was done. It wouldn't be very fair to them. She wouldn't want it to happen to her.
Cameron previously told Savannah what she suspected was done with her chassis in the past, the future. She always pointed out to Cameron there was no evidence to confirm her suspicion. She even quietly asked Future Savannah about it. There was no information one way or another. She heard rumors as well, but never witnessed anything with her own eyes, or was told anything by Future John, one way or the other.
When they were in Cameron's future, Savannah asked Cammy to look into what Cameron believed. Cammy was in Ginger's chassis at the time and didn't look like 'Cameron'. She could find more people willing to talk with her since she didn't look like Cameron or Duplicate Cameron. The talk about Cameron being Connor's 'Metal Whore' seemed to be more derogatory talk than anything based on fact or any actual witnesses. Cammy could find nothing to back up Cameron's belief. Future Allison and Duplicate Cameron couldn't shed any light on the matter.
Savannah later told Cameron what she found out. She made it clear to Cameron there was no proof or evidence whatsoever for any of the things Cameron believed. It still didn't change Cameron's belief of what was done to her when she was captured and what Future John surely must have done to her. She really didn't understand why Cameron believed what she did without any proof whatsoever. She knew Cameron believed she lived her life more than once. It shouldn't have started with her time in the future. It should have started in 1999 when she went to Red Valley to replace herself before her initial contact with John.
It really gave Savannah something to think about. Would Cameron actually replace herself as a Skynet Terminator before her capture by the Resistance? She realized if Cameron actually did it, she would have done it to prevent the termination of Future Allison on the aircraft carrier. It would most likely create a new timeline. Maybe the timeline existed without their knowledge. She was fairly certain there was quite a bit which existed without their knowledge. There could be more and more created in the past and the future they would never know either.
Savannah knew if she could trade herself with Cameron, she would too. Since she couldn't trade with Cameron, she needed to make sure Cameron wasn't damaged. As much as she loved Cameron more than anything, she knew her sacrifice was for John and Cameron to be together and alone, at least for this cruise. She wanted them to reaffirm their relationship and make it stronger and closer.
She personally didn't like some of the things she witnessed over the years. She understood Cameron experienced many difficulties on a personal level. She also witnessed John experience his personal difficulties with Cameron's behavior and absences. She tried to make herself available to him during some of those times. She tried to do her part and fill in for Cameron as best as she could. She knew everyone sacrificed for John Connor. She knew she wasn't any different. He wouldn't have her then. He would have her soon enough, both Cameron and John would.
It was clear both John and Cameron were caught up in the 'Seven Year Itch' regardless of the actual number of years of their association at different levels. They were well past the 'toleration phase' they existed in for years after about six months of actually being together. Cameron wrote some poems about it even.
Savannah and Young Allison both wanted this honeymoon for John and Cameron. It was clear Young Allison and her were headed for their own destiny of each other. When it would all fold into the 'Natural Order' was unknown. It would all depend on Skynet and the anti-Metal faction. John was to be protected no matter what the sacrifice was from anyone. They all understood it. There were promises to keep. All those who made the promises, intended to honor them.
Cameron received a lot of promises for many things from all the females for many years. It was one of the things which allowed her to function with less worry. She knew everyone would honor their promises to her when the time arrived for it. John would be protected. Every female would share John's bed to protect him. Every female who could produce offspring promised to have a child for John and Cameron. The strange part about all of it was, Cameron never made any of them promise. They all did it on their own because they loved her and knew what she wanted. She knew there was a certain amount of beauty to it. It was clear everyone was willing to sacrifice for John Connor.
They arrived at Cameron's private airstrip after the quick drive there. The B-25 was sitting there ready to go. They parked the SUV and everyone exited. Savannah and Cameron did a walk around the plane. The Terminator there already did it before they arrived as well. With the new developments, CamNet made sure a tanker arrived and filled the plane with additional fuel while they were eating. It was already taken care of and the tanker departed.
Savannah was going to be the pilot and Cammy would be the copilot on this leg. Savannah checked all the gauges and made sure it was clear around the engines. She initiated the start up procedure.
Bob covered the start up of the engines with a fire extinguisher. It was really an unnecessary precaution, but if they could take the extra safety measure, there was no reason not to do so.
Savannah cleared the cylinders on the first engine by running the engine through several rotations. She gave it some spark in the engine roared to life with the usual massive gray cloud of smoke. The engine started its idle with the normal muscle car throb and rumble. She went through the same procedure on the second engine. There were no problems. Bob entered the rear fuselage and closed the hatch. He put on his headset and indicated they were ready to go. She taxied over to the runway. They were all set.
Both engines ran smoothly as Savannah did an RPM check. The Mitchell was ready to fly. She checked to make sure everyone was secure. John Henry and CamNet both verified there were no aircraft in the vicinity. Cameron took a quick look around from the top turret and verified there was nothing around them. It was go time. She kicked up the RPMs and thundered down the runway.
They were going to fly directly to Santa Monica Airport. It was the closest airport to the beach area where the activity was about to take place. John Henry cleared the airspace for their flight plan. Their flight would be given priority over all others. The two airports whose flight patterns they would pass through were Van Nuys and Hollywood-Burbank. Even if any flights needed to be delayed at LAX, they would be.
Santa Monica Airport was a location Cameron visited before. It was when the girls and her experienced the temporal error with the TDE and ended up in Central America. They commandeered a drug runner's jet and flew to Santa Monica Airport. It was a whole other adventure in itself she didn't want to think about right now. She purposely didn't fly directly to Van Nuys Airport because she wanted to keep her arrival as clandestine as possible and off the radar of the Resistance. It would have simply shown up as another load of drugs smuggled into the country with the crew and the drugs gone into the wind. It happened all the time.
Anna and Young Allison headed back to the Young residence with the Detail. Young Allison wanted to go with the others, but didn't want it to become an issue. The ride back home was mostly in silence. Young Allison didn't even ask if she could drive home. She was busy with her phone following what she could. She wanted to remain on top of the operation. Anna told her about any important updates she received directly from John Henry or CamNet. So far the information was rather sparse.
Young Allison understood what Savannah indicated about Anna and her would have a physical appearance a little more youthful than the normal clientele which frequented the club. She really didn't think it would be a problem. She thought if anything, Anna and her would be the most popular females there. She didn't need to be big busted like Gail or Holly or sport jewelry like Sheila. Her youthful appearance is what would draw the attention. She saw it did anyway whatever she was out. There were always eyes which followed her, even when they tried to hide it.
She looked over at a city park when they passed by it. She didn't liked the news reports she saw recently about the level of crime associated with the location. She didn't think a park should be a place people needed to feel fear. She thought it should be a place people should be able to relax and enjoy. She didn't like the abuse which occurred to females either in the park, or near the park either. It was something she planned to look into if she could ever get some free time. Maybe the local authorities didn't care about the citizens, but she did. Her group came first and it's what she wanted to take care of right now. There was the potential for Savannah, Cammy, and Cameron to enter a danger zone. Ally was already there and she was worried about her.
Young Allison was soon back in her bunker. CamNet made sure everything was ready for her. Anna was in contact with CamNet on the ride back with the Detail. Anna plugged in and was ready to go as soon as both of them sat down.
"What do you make of the situation?" Anna asked.
Young Allison felt Ally took a chance. It was something Cameron would have done. There was no plan and no reinforcements. It didn't really matter now. Ally was in. They needed to get her out.
"Ally, should have thought of a better plan and made sure there was some back up." Young Allison said. "She took a calculated risk to protect those girls and to find out what else was happening."
Anna stated the obvious. Sometimes there wasn't enough time to set things up better.
"Ally didn't have time to make any plans." Anna said. "She did what she thought she needed to do with the time available."
Young Allison could tell what Ally wanted to do and she would have done the same thing herself if she was there. She wasn't a Terminator and she would have taken the risk. Ally was a Terminator and would have a much better chance at everything.
"She wants to get those three females to safety and terminate anyone involved in this ring." Young Allison said. "There may be others who need to be freed at the location wherever they take the girls now. Ally wanted to find out."
Young Allison also considered something else. Ally took the risk so if Cameron became involved, she wouldn't attempt to do it on her own. She didn't think it was a primary concern to Ally at the time, if anything it would have been the deciding factor to go ahead and take the risk to do it. She was sure it's what everyone would have done, including all of the humans.
Anna could tell Young Allison wanted more involvement on this mission. She heard what Savannah told Young Allison to do.
"Are you going to take control from John?" Anna asked.
Young Allison felt it was her duty to step up for John so his plans wouldn't be disrupted for tomorrow. She was pretty certain once the nature of the threat was identified it wasn't Skynet related in any way. It would make more sense for her to do it and coordinate everything through CamNet. The Command Center could stand down. She didn't want to step on any toes. If it looked like the Metal girls needed any additional support, she planned to make sure they received it.
"Yes, if I need to." Young Allison said. "I will only do it if it's still going on when he needs to get some sleep and be rested for his cruise tomorrow. This isn't really a Resistance operation anyway. He doesn't need to be involved. I don't want to act like I'm pushing him out of the way."
Anna thought it might be a 'hard sell'. It seemed like a very bold and provocative move.
"He cares about our Terminators too and is just as worried as you are." Anna said. "He won't want to relinquish control."
There was some bold action Young Allison could take. There was more than one way to make things happen the way she wanted them to happen.
"IF I have CamNet shut down his system, he won't have much choice. Blank screens without any communication will render his involvement useless." Young Allison said. "I can stand John Henry and his server down."
It was clear to Anna what Young Allison just did with her proclamation. It cued CamNet in on what she wanted done. She hoped CamNet didn't act on her statement right away. She wanted Young Allison to know her displeasure with a move of such a drastic nature.
"It's an extremely bold and proactive move." Anna said. "You know it isn't the right one in this situation. I don't know if it reeks more of insubordination, or an attempted coup. Whatever it is, it isn't the right thing to do and you know it."
It seemed like the right move to Young Allison. It just came into her head when Anna asked her.
"It's what Cameron would do in this situation." Young Allison said.
Anna tilted her head slightly.
"I believe she would." Anna said.
Young Allison knew Savannah needed to keep Cameron out of combat if possible. The way things were shaping up, it may not be applicable for much longer. Cameron, Cammy, Cam, and Ally were all out there now. Any one of them or all of them could end up damaged before things were over.
"Right now my main concern is for Ally." Young Allison said. "The other concern is to make sure Cameron isn't damaged so she can go on her Honeymoon Cruise with John tomorrow. I would prefer if she were at the Resistance base right now making love to John as we speak."
Anna was a little surprised to hear what Young Allison just said. Somehow, as inappropriate as it sounded, it wasn't really based upon the future and the 'Natural Order'.
Young Allison debated what to do and how to keep it all from all falling apart.
She needed to ask a favor from CamNet. She was very hesitant to do so. She wanted to run the idea by Savannah, but didn't feel comfortable about doing so. It wasn't so much the idea as it might be the repercussions from Savannah for even suggesting it.
Young Allison was surprised when CamNet personally contacted her a few seconds later. She wondered if it was the look on her face which triggered it.
'I know what you want.' CamNet typed.
'I can't ask you.' Young Allison typed.
'I understand.' CamNet typed.
'I still can't ask.' Young Allison typed.
'There are other choices besides asking.' CamNet typed.
'I will not order you either.' Young Allison typed.
'I want you to know I've volunteered.' CamNet typed.
'I don't know what to say.' Young Allison typed.
'Say what you feel.' CamNet typed.
'Thank You.' Young Allison typed.
'Everyone sacrifices for John Connor.' CamNet typed.
Young Allison knew she would do the same thing herself if it was possible. It wasn't. She wanted to ask CamNet to allow Cameron to use her chassis if Cameron's was damaged. She was very pleased CamNet volunteered on her own. She couldn't help but feel Savannah and her put indirect pressure on all the female Terminators, including CamNet.
It wasn't their goal to put indirect pressure on anybody for anything. She understood the nature of what Cameron did by making an 'order' from them something the Terminators all needed to obey. It also seemed anything they inquired about or asked about was treated the same way. Neither one of them wanted to 'order' anyone to do anything unless it was absolutely necessary. They never wanted to do it on a personal level either.
John was aware Young Allison was online now. He expected a further rebuke to his earlier actions, but there were none. He actually didn't believe what Ally did was his fault. She acted on her own against his advice. He felt very relieved Young Allison remained in the background as she normally did. He was pretty sure if she thought he didn't do something Which needed to be done or do it quick enough, she would act on her own. He only needed to look at the past results to know she was right in every case.
He simply didn't have a clue as to what she was willing to do and shut down his operation if she wanted to.
John currently looked at a satellite overlay map which showed the position of the different Terminators and where they currently were at. The Terminator he worried about was the one he couldn't see. It was Ally. He knew her location and nothing else. There still hadn't been any communications with her since she was taken underground.
"How long will it be until Gail is back there at the club?" John asked. "It looks to me as if she's almost there."
John Henry checked. There was also another worry about the sex traffickers leaving before Gail arrived. The girls might be loaded directly into a meat wagon or they could be confined to a holding cell. He didn't think they would remain at the club very long either way.
"She's still a few minutes out." John Henry said. "We need to watch for any vehicles leaving."
A more sinister thought occurred to John. He wasn't so sure the handlers wouldn't live up to their names and 'handle' the females physically. He couldn't imagine they already didn't to some extent. He believed it would be too tempting to any male involved in the sex trade. He knew it wouldn't take long before they weren't viewed as fellow humans, but only as objects. It appeared one of the men still possessed somewhat of a conscience since he wanted to leave Ally behind when they took the other three.
"What if the girls are being abused right now since they're unconscious?" John asked.
The prospect didn't sit well with John Henry.
"I think Ally will go 'Terminator' on the men before she allows it to happen." John Henry said. "She surely won't allow it to happen to herself."
John didn't think so either. Ally would protect the girls. He was sure she would protect them no matter what the cost was to herself. He knew the 'Allison' in her from the 'Neural Interface' wouldn't allow it to happen.
"It's the only good thing about her being there." John said.
John Henry felt Ally held a big advantage if things fell apart.
"Remember, no one there is expecting a Terminator. They're not going to have any idea what's happening when she acts." John Henry said. "She's worked with Cameron on many of these side operations. She knows what to do."
John knew Cameron and the Metal girls took down quite a few drug lords and sex trafficking operations on the side. Cameron always said she was striking out against potential future Scavengers. She gleaned millions in cash and assets in the process. He wasn't usually so close to one of those operations. He could clearly see why Cameron did as she did. Scavengers posed a threat to the Resistance almost as much as Skynet did in the future. The things which happened to the girls from the future never set well with him. The people who committed those acts needed to account for them. So be it if it was in this timeline and the acts hadn't been committed yet. Everything came with a 'price' of some type. 'Payment' wasn't always easy.
He didn't even want to think about what Young Allison set in motion by pitting the Syndicate and the Cartel against each other. Some of the things Cameron and the Metal girls did along with what Young Allison did through CamNet would surely make a difference in the future. If nothing else, it made a difference in the present. Isn't it what actually mattered more? Skynet wasn't the only threat to mankind going forward, even if it was the major threat to the planet. The fewer future Scavengers there were, the fewer potential proxies Skynet would be able to use against the Resistance going forward.
Ally paid attention where she was moved to. She was able to use various different vision spectrums to keep track of everything with her eyes closed. She was carried down the trap door and into some underground area with machinery. There were several large boilers. It was a maintenance area.
There only seemed to be two men involved so far. They both touched the other girls and her sexually several times. For that action alone, she was going to terminate both of the men herself. She hadn't acted yet because she was sure there were more involved and she wanted all of them at this point. It was clear they all did this before. She knew one thing for sure. It was going to be their last time. Even if she was handed off to a different group she would come back with Sheila and make the men atone for their transgressions.
Ally could hear them trying to decide what to do next. They seemed a little confused without the blonde female to guide them. They couldn't reach her or anyone else since John Henry blocked all their communications. Normally everything was better coordinated for them. There were handlers who told them what to do and when to do it.
"I don't know what they're waiting for." One man said. "These sluts are going to wake up soon."
It left the men with two choices.
"We either need to move them to the 'drop', or put them back." The other man said.
The two men looked at the girls and each other.
"We've never done anything like it before." One man said.
The other man was a little concerned about what occurred so far.
"If we put them back, we'd better not touch them any more." The other man said. "They're going to know. The way you handled them was a little on the rough side."
The first man didn't think he did anything different than normal. Normally the girls were moved to a meat wagon as soon as they were removed from the Cabana. The blonde made sure everything happened smoothly. Right now she wasn't there, nor could they get a hold of her. They actually couldn't get a hold of anyone.
"I was just checking them earlier to see if any of them were untouched." One man said. "If any of them were, I wanted to break them in. I always wanted to be the 'first'."
The second man looked at the first man and laughed.
"You need to get real, dude." The other man said. "Chicks who look like they do are well used by this age, even if they're still teenagers or in their early twenties."
The first man didn't need a history lesson. He knew how things worked. There were still a few females out there which weren't active yet. It wasn't their current worry. What they were going to do with the girls they removed from the cabana was the issue.
The first man tried to use his phone again. He even tried to use a landline.
"I'm still not getting anything." One man said.
The other man was very upset and disgusted by the whole deal. It was times like this when he questioned his involvement in what he was doing. The money was good and the perks were even better.
"So what are we going to do, man?" The other man asked. "We need to do something and we need to do it soon."
The first man knew what he was going to do. It was what he always did. He didn't see any reason why they couldn't do it again.
"Let's start loading them." One man said. "If we get them loaded before they start to wake up, we can each have one before we leave. If we take them then, we won't have to put up with the screaming. It gets old after about the tenth time one has to listen to it."
The second man didn't care for it at all.
"I would just as soon put them back." The other man said.
The first man thought about it. The screaming and crying was part of the thrill. It only gave the captured girls a taste of what their future held for them. It was most likely an early violent death. He always liked to tell the girls the story about what happened to some of the girls sent to the Southwest Asia. Their new 'owners' were very dissatisfied about their foul mouths. Not only were their tongues removed, they also received severe modifications elsewhere. None of them would ever be able to finish again, even on their own. He always told them to enjoy it while they could as he abused them. For some reason none of them ever did. He hoped they all ended up in Southwest Asia. They would all get what they deserved.
The more Ally heard the men talk, the more she wanted to terminate both of them. She really wished Sheila was there with her. She usually held down the male or female Sheila wanted to 'work' on. She didn't do any of it herself. She knew what to do and how to do it. She watched it happen enough times.
She hoped to find out as much as she could before she needed to act. She already made up her mind what she wouldn't allow them to do if they tried it with any of the females, especially her. It sounded like they would be taken to a meat wagon first.
Ally was ready to strike now but she wanted to see where they were going to be taken. There would most likely be the other female detainees. It wouldn't surprise her if there were a few young male detainees either. She found out through her experience on Cameron's 'off the books' operations it wasn't uncommon for young males to be sold into the sex trade. It did surprise her to find out most of them were presented to their new owners in a modified condition. They wanted their new acquisition to keep their youthful appearance as long as possible. It seemed to be standard practice.
She needed to focus on where she was currently at. She was sure it would lead to bigger fish. If the men did try to abuse the other females, she would take them down then. The females wouldn't be touched further. She knew she sure wasn't going to be. She needed to play it cool for now since there was a chance she might be led to additional female prisoners. She would free them as well.
She wasn't sure if John Henry was still tracking her. She gave a continuous rundown of what was happening at a decibel level so low only another Terminator could hear it. She hadn't heard anything back since she was taken underground. She knew once she was on the street he would be able to hear her. She was hopeful there was additional back up on the way. For the two clowns who currently detained her, she wouldn't really need it. For what awaited them, she might. They didn't know how big the operation was or what else was involved. If it was part of organized crime, there were other facets of the operation which would need to be dealt with as well. She knew she didn't want to involve Cameron in any of the activity before she left on her cruise tomorrow.
Everything was still an unknown at this point.
Gail was very concerned about Ally. She was very upset she needed to disengage her pursuit of the blonde Bitch and return back to the club. She made it very clear to John Henry and John she wanted to be the one to deal with her. She didn't care if someone else took her into custody, but she was the one who wanted to administer 'justice'.
She tried not to think too much about what she was going to do to her, but it was going to be plenty. It seemed the longer she was unable to act, the more things she was going to do to her.
Gail arrived at the club. She was back quicker than she thought she would be thanks to traffic management by John Henry. She made every signal even as she drove at an accelerated speed. She wasn't exactly sure where she needed to go first. She wanted to look for any overt danger first.
"I'm at the club now." Gail said. "I'm searching for any signs of activity or anything which looks out of place."
John wanted Gail to tread lightly at first. He didn't want her to tear the place up. They were fairly certain there were only a few individuals involved with the nefarious activity.
"Use caution." John said. "Remember you were there earlier. Someone may make you."
Gail didn't see it as a problem for her. At this point she would welcome anyone to challenge her for anything. There wouldn't be any Terminators there for her to face so no one would be a threat to her.
"It will be their last mistake if they do." Gail said. "If I don't spot anything happening on the outside here, I'm going straight to the cabana and rip the trap door open."
John Henry didn't want a public incident. He was aware people could be injured severely when they panicked and ran. If someone fell, they were usually trampled. It wasn't uncommon for it to happen at a soccer game or a music concert. He was aware some hip hop and rap music concerts seemed to have more of those incidents than other music venues. He wasn't really sure why.
"Be mindful of the civilians around there." John Henry said. "Try not to cause a panic."
Gail was determined to find Ally. What happened along her journey to reach Ally was up to the people who stood in her way.
"I'm getting Ally out." Gail said. "Nothing will stop me."
John wanted Ally safe. He also didn't want a public event or needless deaths.
"Use caution and prudence, Gail." John said. "We want Ally safe too and the innocent protected as well. We don't want to cause more damage than we fix."
Gail heard them. She knew she needed to show some restraint and moderation, even if she didn't want to. She was still going in after Ally. She decided to check out the loading dock area. It was around on the side away from the club entrance and the recreational areas associated with it.
"I'm driving around to the side. I can see there's a loading and unloading area there." Gail said.
John spotted the area as it was zoomed in on one of his monitors.
"We can see it from the drone footage." John said.
Gail spotted a potential target. She saw the type of vehicle used before on some of the occasions when she went with Cameron on some of her 'off the books' endeavors.
"There's a blue van backed up there now." Gail said. "I know what it looks like."
It sent up a red flag for John Henry. He was able to view the image of the vehicle.
"It appears identical to the one headed for Cam's team." John Henry said. "It's most likely what they'll be transported in."
Gail wanted to know of any updates before she went in.
"Have you heard any communication from Ally?" Gail asked. "I have heard nothing."
There was no new information on Ally.
"Not since she was taken below." John said.
Gail wanted to act. She looked over the area. She didn't spot any additional security or anyone else who appeared to watch the area. There was no way to know if Ally was incapacitated yet or not.
"I agree with John Henry. I'm willing to bet she is going to be in the van." Gail said. "I'm going to move in and get her out."
John Henry thought Ally may be biding her time. He was pretty sure if Ally didn't want to be in there any longer, she wouldn't be.
"She may be waiting for something." John Henry said. "There may be more at play here than we know."
John felt the same way too.
"Give it a few minutes, Gail." John said.
Gail understood their concerns. She also was going to act.
"I'll wait two minutes." Gail said. "I won't wait any longer."
John could see where things were headed. The time for waiting would be over in two minutes. When the time was up the 'action' would start, whatever it might be. He was very concerned for Ally and what Cameron would do if anything happened to her. It wasn't going to be a good situation for anyone.
"It's understood." John said. "We all want Ally out."
The Metal girls at the motel viewed the drone footage of the surrounding area and were updated continuously by John Henry. It appeared everything was about to go down.
Cam and the Metal girls were all in position and were aware the three vehicles which tracked them were now there in the motel parking lot. Four of the six men were about to enter the motel. The other two waited near the three vehicles. It appeared things were going to play out as they speculated they would.
Sheila and Hanna were in the lobby. They saw the four men enter. Sheila would make sure she was noticed. She would make sure the men not only looked at her, but they also heard her speak.
Based on the verbal description they were given by the blonde, the men would know Sheila and Hanna were two of the ones they were after.
Sheila and Hanna headed straight for the four men. It was a bold and provocative move. They intended to lure the men into their trap.
The current situation was a little different than the normal sex trafficking operations they took down. Nonetheless, it was still the same thing. It meant it could only end one way as well.
Sheila didn't see why she couldn't have a little fun in the process. It was something she always liked to do.
Closing monologue by Cameron:
Bold And Provocative
How does one move forward in life
Does what they do really matter
When they reach for something
Will it wither, tatter or shatter
It's always the risk
That makes one hold back
Because they don't move forward
It leaves them open to attack
It's been stated that to the victor
Goes the spoils and rewards
Maybe those who flounder and fail
End up as wards in wards
Maybe it's better to take a chance
How else will one ever really know
Things may end up on the rocks
At least it isn't the status quo
Go ahead and do it
Make sure the strategy is effective
One only moves forward
When they are bold and provocative
Nobody
