Terminator:

Full circle

Ch.1

Kyle Reese sat in his quarters, examining the photograph which he had memorized, every last curve. The year was 2027, nine years after he was inducted into the resistance. After the events of 2018, in which he had forged an alliance with the now famed half-man half-terminator Marcus Wright, Kyle had quickly shot through the ranks. He was in Perry`s unit, along with sergeant Perry himself, a ballistics and demolition expert, and Luna, best sniper in the whole of the resistance. The three of them operated as Connor`s elite task force. They were famous for completing missions that other squads couldn`t pull off on their best of days.

Suddenly, a blast rang through the air, shockwaves shaking the whole bunker. Skynet had found them, like it always did. Kyle quickly suited up, positioning all his armor as he had done time after time. He tucked the photo which Connor had given him so long ago in the same place he always had, a good luck charm of sorts. He grabbed his favorite weapon, a phased plasma rifle with a 40-wat range, and sprung into action. As he left his room, the situation was worse than he had thought. Perry and Luna were pinned under heavy fire, taking cover and firing at the oncoming swarm of T-800 endos. As a sniper, Luna wasn`t very skilled at these face-to-face confrontations. Perry yelled "Reese! Get over here!" Kyle quickly responded by jumping into the mix, returning fire most skillfully as he had done so many times before. Soon the attacking force had suffered heavy losses, and victory seemed nigh. However, as Luna came out from her cover spot to deliver a kill shot to one of the oncoming hoard, a single plasma bullet ripped through her heart, killing her instantly. She fell to the ground, her body now limp. Devastated, Kyle screamed "Luna! No!" He fell at her side, weeping for his dead team mate. Suddenly, the wall before them crumbled as a ground HK entered the space.

"Kyle, get out of here" said Perry, "I'll finish this." Kyle looked and saw Perry, holding a det-pack. "But sir, you`ll…" "Go, Reese! That`s an order!" snapped Perry, asserting his authority. Not one to disobey direct orders, Kyle grabbed Luna's body and high-tailed it out of there, using the back exit. After allowing enough time for Kyle to escape, Perry peaked over the chunk of ceiling behind which he was positioned, seeing the HK getting closer and closer. As Kyle put more and more distance between himself and the bunker, Sergeant Perry activated the det-pack and threw it at the oncoming machines. The explosion was heard for many miles as the bunker collapsed behind Reese.

Kyle jumped out of bed, gasping for air. That had been two years earlier, it was now 2029, and Reese had been haunted by the memory of that day ever since.
