I woke up startled from a deep sleep just to see her staring at me. She scared me I admit it. The very thought that she could calm me in my sleep even when my own mother was in jail and suffering, I could still sleep an untroubled sleep. Even when I was mad at her for the way that she had messed with my brain and my feelings, I still felt safe with her. But I could never let those feelings show because I knew that my mother would not hesitate to kill her. So instead I acted cold and heartless towards her until she told me that their sole function was to kill humans. I hated the way she classified herself as a killing machine when I knew that she was different and so did she. So I let my feelings show and told her that she was different.
After that she did the one thing I did not expect she took off her bra and lay down on the bed and told me to get on top of her. My brain went from being sharp, inquisitive to a dull mush I can only explain as stupid. The very thought that I John Connor, saviour of mankind got nervous about getting on top of a terminator( a very hot terminator) just to check that she was not leaking radiation was hilarious. If I were in somebody else's shoes I probably would have laughed at the idea but I was not. So my brain went on autopilot as I put my legs around her as instructed.
She told me to cut her open, to check her for a radiation leak. My brain couldn't possibly comprehend what I was about to do but I did it anyway. I told myself not too look at her body just stare at her face and don't look south. It worked until I looked into her eyes. Those beautiful chocolate brown eyes that made me feel that anything was possible and I could do anything if I set my mind to it. She asked me what it felt like and I answered honestly that it was cold. I suddenly felt drawn to her like I was in a trance. I licked my lips instinctively and just as I was about to lean and kiss her, she broke the moment by telling me that it was time to go.

I sat in the car my leg nervously jumping up and down like it was having a seizure. This was a bad idea, I never should have let Cameron run in there to rescue mom. She herself had told me to run away but she was the one that had saved me my whole life even before I was born so it felt right to return the favour.
The alarms blared and shouted as I suddenly saw mom and Cameron run out of the prison. They opened the car doors and I quickly pressed the gas. It was only then I realised the condition that Cameron was in. The metal endoskeleton gleamed under the sunlight and the fake blood, flesh and skin hanged out. I was worried, very worried that Cameron wouldn't be ok. So for once I let my feelings show as my voice broke when I asked her if she was ok, she answered me in her most robotic voice "I am not one hundred percent". My mind went totally blank. How could such a sweet innocent face only hours before talk like a normal girl and then suddenly change into a robotic voice. I knew that it was for moms benefit, but it still hurt that underneath all the amazing things that made her human, she was still a robot.
Of course my mom immediately asked how far from one hundred percent she was. How could she even ask such a thing, when she saw the state that Cameron was in. It was then that I stupidly remembered. My mother never cared about Cameron, she saw her as a pawn in the chess game against Skynet. But I had to ask, I just had to why she would ask such a thing. It was then she replied, in a voice that made feel like I was ten years old that she needed to see Catherine Weaver.

We had talked; we had survived the drone that was sent to kill us. It was then I remembered. Cameron, in the basement with another machine Cromartie. The one that had so many times tried to kill us. I ran, ran as fast as I could my only thought was to make sure that she was safe. I turned the door knob and what was on the other side was something I never expected. My brain numbly registered everything. Her body limp, lifeless in a chair where this John Henry was supposed to be and a bloody knife beside her on the desk.
I ran to her chair desperately checking through the blood and hair to make sure that she her chip, her soul was still there. But alas it was not, and the emotions that filled me was nothing that I could ever explain. I felt defeated, broken as I said that her chip was gone. I asked, demanded in my John Connor voice where this John Henry was. Catherine Weaver answered in a haughty voice not where but when like she was better than all of us. I then saw that she had a TDE much like the one that Cameron had in 1999. There she was floating into my thoughts again. It was then I realised that I was in love with a machine, and I would do anything to get her back. Mom looked at me and the only thing I could say was he's got her chip, he's got her. I didn't care that I showed my feelings; all I cared about was getting her back.

Her body had disappeared, just gone not appearing in the future. He didn't care that he was naked, or that he was not acting like the hero he was supposed to be. He just wanted her back whatever the cost. It was then he heard the voice of another human. What the man screamed surprised him. We got one, we got one like he was some kind of terminator or a gray. He was still in shock about all the events that had happened this afternoon or the last twenty years depending on the way you looked at it. He numbly registered that Derek had come forward and in his shock he talked like he knew him. But of course he knew that this was not the Derek from his timeline but a Derek from another. He said that I would be probably be famous which just made my head spin. But I didn't care, I only wanted her. Then came the biggest shock of all Kyle, my father and then Cameron.
I felt happy, overjoyed, and happier than I have ever been. It was only then that I realised this couldn't be Cameron. The dog wasn't barking at her or whining at her, he was completely calm. The girl with the ruby lips were not the ones that he was used to. Because on them was a smile, a smile that he had not seen since 1999 in New Mexico. Only then did I understand that this wasn't Cameron but Allison the girl from Palmdale. I felt the light go out of my eyes. I felt the emotion drain from my body. I then realised that one of the things that I loved about Cameron was her curiosity about the world and that I would never see it again.
