The Turning Point (A Terminator Story) | Complete

Chapter 4 - Escape.

You didn't realize you had fallen asleep until the car stopped and jolted you awake. You looked around, seeing you were in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by trees in the middle of the night. You looked that the cop. 

"Where are we?" You asked but he remained silent and he got out of the car. He looked at you. 

"Stay here." He said, closing the door and walked off. It wasn't long before you couldn't see him anymore.  

"He really is a cop. He even had a name on the uniform. It said Austin." You said out loud but looked around the car for anything you could use. He must have killed a cop to get this car and that uniform.

"Fucker." You said, deciding you would call him C. You didn't want to call him Austin as that wasn't his name. As you looked, you saw a retractable knife and smiled. You grabbed it and began to score the metal. It was working as you saw the scratch marks and thanked your father for teaching you how to cut and break metal with simple tools you could find anywhere. 

As you continued to do it, you would look around every so often for C so you could hide the knife in time if he came back. It had been about thirty minutes now and the metal was scored perfectly. You started to bend and move the metal. It started to move and bend slowly at first, but then it bent more. You new it was close so you closed your eyes and bent it a few more times before it snapped. You opened your eyes, throw the metal in the back seat and opened the door, running. 

'I have to find Kat and John before C does.' You thought as you ran but then slowed to a walk, looking behind you. He wasn't fallowing you but you didn't stop moving. What you did see was a semi coming at you down the road. You ran, waving your arms and you saw it slowing. Once it stopped you walked to the drivers side, seeing a woman with black hair and green eyes. 

"You OK Sugar?" She asked. You shook your head. 

"No. I was kidnapped. Can I get a ride to the police station please?" you asked. She looked worried. 

"Of course, climb in." she said. you ran over and got in, buckling up.  

"Whats your name sugar?" She asked. 

"(y/n) (l/n)." You said as she started to drive. She grabbed her walkie. 

"Peaches, this is Muffin, do you copy? Over." She asked. 

"M-Muffin?" You stuttered. She smiled at you. 

"Nicknames sugar. You don't have to be scared. I won't hurt you." Muffin said and you nodded.    

"Copy that Muffin, how can we help you? Over." A women voice said back. That must have been Peaches.

"I have a female here in need of the police, I will be going off route. Poor things scared to death. Over." Muffin said. 

"Copy that, take her to the nearest police station. Over and out." Peaches said. Muffin put her walkie back. 

"The next police station is a few miles north. Do you need medical attention?" Muffin asked. You shook your head and looked out the window. 

"Well that's good." Muffin said and the ride was silent after that. Muffin made a few turns and soon, you saw a police station. Muffin stopped her truck and you got out.  

"You stay safe now sugar." Muffin yelled. You waved and she drove off. You looked at the station. You took a step back and started to walk. If C really was disguised as a cop, he could have called you in, saying you were dangerous so you started to walk in the direction that Muffin was going. You saw you were in the dessert but the sun was now coming up. 

"Kat...John...I hope you guys are save." You said, sitting on the ground to rest for a minute. Once you did, you felt something touch that back of your head. You froze. 

"(y/n)." You heard Kat say. you smiled. 

"Kat no! She might be the T-1000. Remember, he can disguise himself as anyone." You heard John say. 

"I'm not! Let me turn around and I can prove it." You said. You felt the thing on your head move and to stood slowly, turning at the same time. You saw T, Kat and John. 

"Kat, Your father taught you everything to know about weapons. You also fought off three guys when we were seven because they called me ugly and you didn't like that." You said. Kat smiled and ran to you, hugging you. You hugged her back. 

"T, It's her. Gun down." John said. T didn't move. You let Kat go and T put his gun down. 

"Come on." T said. You followed then into the car, buckling up as T drove. You told them what happened in the cop car with C and how you got away. 

"Good, but now he will be looking for you." T said. You nodded, then thought of something.

"T? Why did I send C back to kill Kat and John?" You asked. T was silent. 

"T, please tell me." You said.

"In the year 2025, you begin to work with Skynet. You made many things, including myself. You got mad at Katherine and John though. They wanted to shut down your work. You made the T-series to help humanity. You wanted to show them that we can not bring an uprising. John and Katherine didn't believe, saying Skynet was evil, so they destroyed your work. You sent the T-1000 to kill them." T said. You were shaking. 

"S-So...C wasn't lying." You said. Kat looked at you. 

"(y/n), what do you mean?" Kat asked. You looked at her, tears falling down your cheeks. 

"C said the same thing." You said. Kat moved and hugged you and you cried. T pointed his gun at you. You glared at him and let Kat go, leaning back in your seat, crossing your arms. 

"T, (y/n) isn't going to hurt me!" Kat yelled but you looked out the window, tuning everything out as you thought. 

'How can I stop this?' You asked yourself as you cried, wiping your eyes.
