Hello all ! Like the crap-tastic summary says, this is basically the movie, only with my own character added. The basis for writing this fic is that, only a few hours ago, after watching Terminator: Salvation, my brand new ipod nano (which I got five days ago for christmas) is now BROKEN ! So I'm pissed off, and I'm taking it out by writing this fic and staying up till dawn. Hope it works out !

I'd decided the first time I saw her that she had once been beautiful. That she had once been whole. That she had once cared.

But now, she was sick, dying, and ugly.

"My brother and two cops are dead because of me. I'm not looking for a second chance." I snap, watching her sunken in eyes. "But I'm not the only one with a death sentence am I? You think I can cure your cancer Serena?"

There's a flicker of pain in her eye. "I'm not worried about myself. I'm worried about the future of the human race." Her voice almost seems broken as she speaks.

"I'll sell it to yah."

"For what?" She asked, seemingly amused at the proposition.

"A kiss."

I watch her, expecting her to shrink away in anger and disgust. To call me some name that would honestly mean nothing to me. But then, slowly, she nods.

My cuffed hands come up and I place them on her dry skin, leaning in and pressing my lips to hers. I hear a small moan escape her, before pulling away fast. There's a twinge of metal on my lips.

"Ahh…so that's what death taste like."

She's revolted. She's angry. She knows she's going to die. Tossing the clipboard down onto the bed, I reach over and grab it, scribbling my name down.

"You're doing something very noble." She proclaims, taking the clip board in hand, as she scrambles out of the cell.

"I'm guilty." I snap. "Just cut me up till there's nothing left."

I lay there, waiting for it to happen. There's nothing going through my mind aside from what's awaiting me.

"Do you have any last words?"

I shake my head. What would I have to say? That I shouldn't be here? I should. That I was sorry? I am. Just get it over with.

There's a sleepy feeling coming over me. And a feeling of weightlessness. And then, it all starts to go dark.

And the last thing I see is her face. That face that I know was once beautiful.

But now that face is ugly. And yet, on her face, I see the hint of a smile.

2018. That's the date. And if I could, I would make it ten years earlier. Because ten years ago, I was living a simple life. I might only have been ten, and not known anything about the world around me. But it was still simple.

Simpler then where I am now. In a war zone, gun in hand, shooting any machine that I see. Scared for my life.

"Connor is on the ground!"

I search the area around me and see him jump out of a helicopter, before shooting a already mangled terminator in the head.

"John!" I yell, rushing over to him, as his eyes come up and meet mine. "What's the plan?"

"Plan?" He asked, looking confused.

Even with gun fire, people killing machines, generally a war all around us, I can't help but smile knowing that he's here with me. "Well…you go in the pit. I go in the pit. We both go in the pit?" I glance to the right to the gaping hole in the ground. "I think I should go. Kate'd kill me if anything…"

"No." His voice is stern, and it scares me. "You head to the east side of the perimeter and stay there till I get back." He yells out, over the sound of bombs dropping.

"Connor you can't be…"

"I am dead serious Billie. Now go!" He yells, before rushing away.

I watch him, seething with rage, as he bounds off the cliff and into the hole. I half expect him to magically appear and tell me to come on, and that he was joking. But I know he wont.

"Billie!" Barnes cries out, and I turn to see him glaring at me. "You heard the man. Move your ass or I'll move it for you."

"Fuck you Barnes!" I call out jokingly, before rushing out of the area, towards the east side of the field.

Seconds pass as I weave in and out of soldiers, gun poised for anything that might pop up and attack.

But as soon as I reach the far east side, I realize that something isn't right.

No gun fire, no terminators, no people.

"Barnes?" I called, reaching up and pressing my hand to my communicator. "Barnes where are the troops for the eastern side?"

I wait, and wait, and wait. And nothing comes back.

"Barnes dammit answer…."

The blast explodes behind me and I'm propelled forward. I hear someone scream, and I feel the earth shake under me.

I look ahead of me, my eyes blurry, closing slowly, and see a Hunter Killer getting ready to take off.

I try and get to my feet, but I can't. My mind is spinning and I'm slowly loosing consciousness. My gun is out of reach, and I can't tell if there are any terminators around.

The roar of the Killer Hunter taking off shakes the ground once again, and the last thing I see is a helicopter taking off, before a massive blast shakes the ground.

Then, it's simply dark.
