Cameron regarded the college student and lowered the shotgun until the buttstock rested on the<br />
floorboards. "I will take you to a safe place. Then I will deal with the Reese Brothers."<br />
"Deal with them" Sarah tempted.<br />
"Yes." Cameron put her head to the side. "They will be terminated."<br />
Sarah held up her hands in defense and stared wide eye at the calm woman. "I can't be a part of<br />
this...whatever the Hell this is." She couldn't understand how Cameron acted so casual and<br />
nonchalantly like this was going to the grocery store for milk.<br />
Cameron straightened up at this and argued, "You will not be. This is my mission."<br />
"Mission" Sarah repeated. Now she noted hints of frustration on Cameron's features.<br />
"We do not have time to discuss every detail." Cameron's finally held emotions that showed her<br />
patiences were thinning. She moved towards the front door. "It is time to go."<br />
Sarah clenched her hands and now realized she still had the movie in her left hand. She looked down at<br />
it and stared at Will Smith in front of endless rows of white robots. She lifted her head and stared at<br />
Cameron, who waited at the door.<br />
Cameron grabbed the doorknob but didn't open the door. She waited for Sarah to make her decision.<br />
She mentally recalled her secondary plan if Sarah Connor didn't agree to her current plans.<br />
"If I go with you," Sarah prompted, "do I come back here, to college"<br />
"Yes."<br />
Sarah couldn't measure any deceit or lie in the simple word or tone. She figured she may be able to tag<br />
along for a ways then make a run for it. Despite Cameron swore not to hurt her, she just didn't believe<br />
somebody who carried six guns and a shotgun without the intent to heavily use them. Sarah set aside<br />
her thoughts then faintly nodded. She approached Cameron.<br />
Cameron glanced down at the rental movie once Sarah was in reach. She held out her hand in hidden<br />
signal for the movie. She was given it and briefly looked at the case. She lowered her head to one side<br />
at the movie's title but made no comment. Instead, she opened the door and left but made sure to put<br />
the movie away in her pack.<br />
Sarah quietly followed her would-be protector. She wasn't sure what to think or believe, but she knew<br />
that she was in a lot of trouble, regardless. She glimpsed down at the shotgun in Cameron's hand. She<br />
would bet that Remington 870p combat shotgun could put a hole in somebody's stomach.<br />
Cameron led her charge back to the motorcycle. She briefly put the bag on the bike and pulled out a<br />
black leather jacket from right hard saddlebag. She slipped it on then turned Sarah. "Can you put on the<br />
pack"<br />
Sarah looked from Cameron to the filled bag. She was nervous about it but nodded. She then took it<br />
and adjusted the straps over her shoulders.<br />
Cameron made adjustments to her helmet then held it out to Sarah.
