Chapter 17: Caesar VS Koba
A/N
(Y/N) Your Name
"Signing"
"Talking"
The humans and some of the apes were working in the waterfall building. Moving giant rocks around, fixing the machines and other jobs like that. Malcolm, two other men and Alex were working the controls.
"Yo Alex." One of the men called. "This relay's busted. See if there's another one." He said as he chucked the broken relay up to Alex from where he was sitting on the floor.
"Yeah." Alex replied as he looked at the relay and made his way over to where he would get the new one. As he was walking down the small set of steps, Koba pushed him out of the way and onto the floor. "Hey!" Alex yelped as he sat up and faced Koba. Koba stopped and faced the boy, growling at him.
Malcolm heard the noise and rushed over to his son. "No! No, no, no, don't!" He yelled as he ran. "No! No! No!" He covered Alex with one arm and held up the other to keep Koba away. As Koba stepped forward, Maurice stepped in between him and the humans. He growled as he stood. (Y/N) stood next to Maurice.
"Koba what the hell are you doing?!" She asked.
"Where Caesar? Want Caesar." Koba said to her harshly. "CAESAR!" He screamed. All the apes stopped what they were doing and made a path for Caesar. Caesar came around a corner from the back. Koba slowly turned and faced him as he walked. "Humans... attack your sons. You let them stay?!" He yelled as he walked closer to the ape king. "Put apes in danger. Caesar love humans... more than apes." They stood less than a meter apart. "More than your... sons." Koba finished as he pointed a finger on Caesar's chest.
Caesar looked behind Koba to Blue Eyes' frightened and curious face. He then looked at (Y/N) who wasn't looking back at him. But death staring Koba with her red eyes, wanting to rip him apart, and he knew she would. Caesar faced back to Koba and took a deep breath then roared.
He jumped on Koba and they rolled across the floor. The other apes hooted. Caesar was underneath Koba as he punched Caesar's face but not long after, Caesar pushed him off and they flipped. Koba was now underneath as Caesar punched and hit Koba's face repeatedly. Blood sprayed everywhere. He grabbed Koba's throat and hit his head on the floor multiple times before roaring once more. He hissed at Koba before letting go of his throat.
"Ape... not kill... ape." He said while panting. Koba looked around to everyone then to (Y/N), whose eyes were still glowing red and a smirk on her face in triumph. He slowly sat up and kneeled before Caesar. He extended his arm and held his palm out.
"Forgive me." He said. Caesar stood there thinking. Why should he? Koba insulted his family. He insulted him. But Caesar knew he had to be the bigger ape. So he did. As soon as Caesar's fingers made contact with Koba's palm, Koba got up and walked out of the building. Everyone watched as he walked out. Blue Eyes watched as well. Then he looked back to his father. He had never seen him act like that, especially to another ape.
"You know that's not true." (Y/N) said as she walked over to the two apes. "Your father loves you and your brother more than anything else in the world. Don't ever think he doesn't." She signed as she put a hand on his shoulder. Blue Eyes nodded then walked off. Caesar watched in defeat. "Don't listen to Koba." She signed to Caesar as he looked to the floor.
(Y/N) flew over to the humans. "I think the apes should go home and rest." She said to them.
"Absolutely." Ellie said.
"Are we still able to work here?" Malcolm asked. Ellie lightly slapped his shoulder in annoyance. "W-with your permission of course." (Y/N) looked back to Caesar. "Take the apes home. I'll stay here."
"No, you'll come home too-"
"Caesar. I'll be fine. I'll kick them out if they try anything." Caesar then sighed and accepted. He took the remaining apes and left. "You can still work here but none of you are allowed anywhere near the apes unless Caesar allows it." The humans nodded. "I'll help clear out most of the debris."
"Are you sure you can carry it?" Malcolm asked. (Y/N) looked around and picked up a massive rock with ease. She smirked to Malcolm.
"I think I'll be fine."
