What Makes a Savage?(Story of Iris the Sister of Caesar)

Can't let go

What did you do after you walked Blue Eyes back to the Colony?"

"Before I walked Blue back to his home, my pigeon came back with a message from Malcom, he wanted to meet me in the city so I was heading over there" she said plainly.

"The abandoned part of the city?" He asked as he leaned forward.

"Yes..."

She became lost in thought remembering the bad that happened in city 10 years ago and and the good before that.

"He took the bodies there? Why?" he snapped her out her thoughts.

"Like I said before a group of soldiers had taken station in the human colony to monitor things...people were getting scared after everything that happened a month before, they would have used the dead bodies as an excuse to bring the rest in and would bring anarchy..."

"Like Alpha-Omega?"

She snapped her eyes to the man as he began to look over some more papers on the table.

"You were trained by them were you not? One of there best from what I've heard" he said he put the papers down to see her glare at him.

"It wasn't by choice...they kidnapped me and made me into child solider..." she practically hissed at him the man seemed unaffected by her reaction though.

"You were 14 at the time yes? Was it right after you father died?"

"Two weeks after my father died...it's easier to grab orphans and they found me wondering around...me and other childern most younger then the rest of us lived under horrid conditions and went through hell...I was there for 13 months..." she said quietly as she tighten her hands.

"You were looking for someone weren't you? When you where wandering."

"No...I was looking for a place to die...I had the Simian Flu..."

Muir Park 3 years ago

Iris walked through the forest trying to get to the city to meet Malcolm. She had not bathed or changed clothes in 2 days, she was covered in dirt along with her body and hair sticky from sweat, she felt like shit not only physically but mentally and emotionally as well it also didn't help that she didn't sleep well last night.

She pulled a string from her pocket and used it to tie hair back to get it out of her face. She rubbed her eyes and looked up to look at the tall trees with the sun glistling through them, she was memorized by them.

Muir Park 15 years ago

Iris got out of the car with her dad, her grandpa, her dads new friend Caroline, and Caesar. Caesar was excited he had never been outside before, he had been in the backyard a bunch of times but this was different.

This was far away from home in wide open space surronded by trees, the young ape couldn't wait to climb and explore.

"Caesar look how big this place is!" Iris said cheerfully, she was excited too.

Caesar hooted joyfully, pratically jumping around.

"Let's go!" she said getting ready to run off along with Caesar but they were both stopped and picked up by Will.

"Daaaaddd!" Iris groaned.

"We want to explore" Caesar signed as he pouted.

"Not so fast, we've never been here before so I don't want you two to get lost, we also need wait for everyone" he said authoritatively.
