The Chase is on
The Chase is on
Kilee ran up the hill behind a row of houses. She felt the ground shift under her feet and found herself falling face first in mud. She tried to get up but before she could a hand closed around her ankle. She had left all her weapons in the car ‘stupid move’ she thought as she spun around and kicked at the HK She hit it square in the face but of course it didn’t let go. It stood up and started dragging her up the hill. She could not see an damage to it from the car hitting it. She struggled to grab onto anything that might stop the thing from taking her away. Once they reached the top of the hill it threw her down the other side. She hit hard but was pretty sure that nothing broke. She jumped to her feet and tried to run again. The thing was coming after her. She dodged threw back yards trying to put anything between it and her, but nothing slowed it down. She jumped a last fence and stood facing another machine. It was huge and just sitting there. She smiled. She had come out in a construction site and found a few weapons she could use. After rigging a surprise for the HK she jumped quickly into the bulldozer. She managed to get it started just as the HK was jumping the fence. She put it in gear and ran over it again. This time though she had rigged it with enough C4 to do some damage to the HK or so she thought. She dove off the machine and pulled herself behind the barricade just as the bomb went off. She sighed she was sure that it would be off line long enough for her to get away. She was wrong.
As Kilee started to get up a hand grabbed her around the neck and pulled her into the air. She looked around and saw the HK holding her. It wasn’t damaged at all!! She couldn’t believe it. It looked up at her and it’s eyes flashed green as it scanned her. She couldn’t move and barely could breathe. ‘Great John sends me back and I fail within the first 24 hours, must be a new record’ she thought to herself. But she wasn’t alone in her own head as John’s voice rang in her mind across time “What you do back there really saves us all.’ John was counting on her, she would die before she gave up on him. With all her strength she kicked out at the HK driving her foot into those murderous green eyes. It worked he dropped her. As she struggled again to her feet a light flooded them. Another vehicle came crashing through the gates and up to her. The door swung open and a voice said
“Get in if you want to live.”
‘A no brainier’ she thought as she dove into the front seat of the car. The man behind the wheel looked vaguely familiar. The pain was fogging her brain and she couldn’t think.
“He is still coming” she turned and saw the HK running behind them.
She took inventory of the car and grabbed the rifle from the back seat. She placed her last stick of TNT that she took from the construction site in to the barrel, and lit it.
The man yelled “What the hell are you doing!!??” “
Trust me” was all she said and climbed out the window.
She waited the HK saw her and came within arms reach. It was reaching out to grab her and she crammed the barrel of the gun into it’s ear cannel. The man driving was smart and hit the gas at the same time. The flew away just as the bomb went off. This time there was damage. She smiled as she saw the side of it’s head disappear. But it was still standing and she knew it would come after her again soon. It now had her DNA and retinal scan. She would have to get better prepared.
Turning to her rescuer she said “Thanks but who are you?”
“Jeff Dansworth. What was that thing?”
She knew the name. He was a voluntary firefighter and worked construction for his regular job. He wasn’t a general for John yet, but was working that way. He was a good man and brave, but right now he had to get away from her before she put him on the Terminators list a bit early. She could think of only one thing to say, the truth.
“That was a machine from the future sent back to destroy the generals of the resistance. The resistance leader sent me back to stop it.”
The car came to a sudden stop in the middle of the street and the guy turned to look at her.
“What the hell are you on? I thought that he was just an abusive boyfriend until you blew half his head off and he just stood there un phased.”
The man looked shocked, but what he said next shocked even her
“My cousin said that this Sarah Connor person he is looking for believes stuff like this. End of the world and her son to be the savior of man kind.”
It took a second or two for his words to sink in through the pain haze in her brain.
“Who is your cousin?” she searched her memories but the only reference to family she had for him was that they were all killed when the bombs fell.
“He is an FBI agent named James Ellison.”
That name she knew. He was on her list as well. He would come to lead the other resistance camp in the valley. They often worked with John’s camp but kept apart so that if one camp fell then there was always another to keep the human race alive and fighting. She opened the door and climbed slowly out of the car. Leaning back in she said
“Tell your cousin to give up on Sarah, she will never stop and he will never fully understand just what she is fighting for until it is too late. Stay away form the Connors and never try to help me again if you want to live. Those things will always be after me” she closed the door and walked into the corner store.
She watched as he pulled back out and left. Hoping that he would take her warning. She walked a few blocks down the street and saw a car with the engine running but no one around. She approached slowly then smiled when she hear the obvious sounds of two people getting a little friendly. She noticed they were not in the car so she climbed in and drove back to the motel. Clark was still asleep on the bed. ‘What a night’ she thought as she let the water wash over her. After her shower she dressed and sat in the window with several loaded guns close at hand. She drifted in and out of sleep until Clark woke her the next morning.
