Chapter 9: Found

From my first observation these creatures were going to be the one, when I stepped into the group, I could feel them go into a state of alert, knowing that they weren't going to attack. I stood still and let them observe and assess me, I could feel their curious eyes roaming my body while occasionally looking behind me.

The one who appeared to be the leader made a slight noise and one small monkey that had been trailing me for some time since I stepped into the wood jumped onto its shoulder and made a quiet noise.

I understood what they were saying so it didn't surprise me when the leader seemed less cautious. It made a slight noise to the group informing them that it was okay.

The little one who couldn't contain their curiosity any longer, all jumped and started grabbing my furs, climbing all over me.That caught the other gorilla's attention, who paused to see my reaction. They wanted to see how I would react but I paid no mind to them and started a chase and hunt game with the little ones.

The play went on for a little while before the young ones were called back by their parents to feed. Now free I found an unoccupied tall tree and smoothly climbed it to continue my observation.

The gorillas are known for their strength and familial bonds. As I quietly observe the group of gorillas in their natural habitat, witnessing their complex social interactions, communication through gestures and vocalizations, and their ability to use tools such as branches and rocks.

It amazed me how they live in symbiosis with other primate creatures, the primate creatures that are smaller than the gorillas act like scouts and watch out for any threat.

When a threat is found, they run back and inform the gorillas, who then proceed to fight or chase away the threats. The lead gorilla has an ability to conjure stones that it launches at threat to chase them away or seriously wound them.

The lightning danced for a while around the bird before dispersing like a shock wave.If the fire gorilla had remained, it would have been affected.

The lightning shockwave made the flames around the bird go away before slowly descending and perched on a tree near the waterfall, it looked down with fury in its eyes at the primates. Lightning once again started to flicker around it and with nobody able to react it swooped down and took a gorilla with it up to the sky.

A scream, from low to high can be heard when the gorilla dropped down from the sky, splatting everywhere, that caused panic to every primate around but the lead gorilla roared out loud causing everyone to quiet down and streams of rocks emerged from the ground merging to form an armor around its body.

The lead gorilla then proceeds to do the same with a female gorilla that has for some reason been protected since the beginning of this attack. Not wanting to seem off, I joined the gorilla's in the act of defending the territory.

Slightly curious about what was special about the female primate, but that will hold off till this crisis is resolved.

The lead gorilla created the same armor for the flame gorilla before looking a bit tired. Roaring out loud once again, it gestured toward a huge cave near the waterfall signaling for all the primates to seek shelter.

(Back to the bird)

The bird now hovering in the sky watching the chaos it caused with glee in its eyes, a rock the size of a ball suddenly flew past it, surprising it. The bird looked down to see the figure of the armored lead gorilla with stones the size of a ball hovering around him.

The lead gorilla hurled the stones at the bird, forcing it to dodge and weave to avoid them. But with a gesture of his hands, the dodged rocks follow the bird like a guided missile. The bird, now focusing solely on evading the rocks, paid less attention to the approaching flame gorilla who rapidly leaped from tree to tree at fast speed closing in on it.

Seeing what the flame gorilla was doing, I summoned wooden spears to appear around me and then hurled them at the dodging bird. In response, the bird unleashed lightning towards the wooden spears, attempting to destroy them.

It succeeded in destroying the spears but the stones following behind now had a target to descend upon, the impact from the stone's caused the bird to plummet down to the woods.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
