Zephram knew she was just cranky and angry for being ignored. "Oh." He looked at her. "You're angry because no one was paying any attention to you and you couldn't read what was being said." He shouldn't have held her in a position where she couldn't lip-read and he knew she had ways to make herself heard. It made him feel a little guilty.
He didn't pursue after Nikita and Zephram knew that the pup did not know what the Cages were. "Are you sure you want to go to the Cages? It's a place where humans spend a majority of their time here until they're sold." He informed her.
Then he heard Nikita say something about not wanting to be with her due to her loud retaliation and then leaving. He rubbed his head. "I don't think she meant that, Elisabeth. She said that you are to decide whether or not you wish to go with her."

"I guess I could go with Nikita instead." She wasn't entirely sure about going with Nikita. Her temper frightened her and within good reason. She couldn't hear everyone's yelling which was good.
"I hope the other ones don't hurt me." She voiced her concern. "Or blame me."

Zephram raised a brow as she told him about being blamed. He didn't know the human felt like that. He only witnessed wild humans being wild that he was unprepared for a human who seemed more observant and keen to body language. She was reading a lot more than lips?
He couldn't fault her for feeling like she was being blamed. It wasn't entirely her fault. Had the patrols not done all this, it wouldn't have led to a late night Tribunal. The members would probably not care about a mere human. But she had helped free a Queen which was - unusual for a human. "If we hurry, maybe we can catch Nikita." He spoke.

Elisabeth kind of forgotten where she was and darted after her, without him. She was a lot quicker than an ape. The floor was so polished that she forgotten that too. She simply did not hear any one chasing her- and running after Nikita- through the hallway was fun.
Where was Nikita? She remembered how they came in. It had to be that way.

Zephram didn't have time before the human ran out of the Tribunal room. "Elisabeth! Wait!" But she was gone. He noticed a new look- of excitement? It looked like Elisabeth did like the Swedish Queen after all. He glanced at the other council members. "She was excited. Can't help an excited human, now can we?" He asked. "Have a good evening."

Kratos nodded his head as the Queen had decided the fate of of her own human, providing Elisabeth the choice. Once Nikita had done that, she departed. "We shall have a meeting when you're ready Queen Nikita, until then. Goodnight." He too walked out one of the side doors.
As he continued to the side door, his ears caught the voice of Zephram. He smirked rising a finger slowly. "Go through the opposite for I am, you shall arrive ahead of Nikita before she exits fully." He friendly stated.

Zephram paused, realizing that he could catch her before she left. He took that exit instead. "Oh yeah. Elisabeth's loose somewhere in the palace. Probably looking for Nikita herself as well." He reminded him. "Since she's deaf, the guards may have trouble trying to convey their orders to her." He spoke before leaving.

Elisabeth continued to wander around, looking for Nikita. She had not an idea of where she was going. It seemed that this place was so huge and there were guards everywhere. Why so many silly dressed apes? What was with that? She was wondering to herself. She saw an ape come to attention and she ran, trying to flee from the guard. In reality, she didn't want to get captured by them. Elisabeth saw a staircase and ran, taking two steps at a time, her only thoughts were to run and hide- or maybe Nikita had traveled here. Running through the long hall, she was in such a flurry that many of the ape servants and guards were all over the place, trying to stop her. She didn't read their lips because she kept spinning around, as if she were in the jungle. Elisabeth did the only thing that came natural. She needed to get away and she saw the only thing that was the only way out of there. She climbed up on the table, knocking over something expensive probably and it fell to the ground, shattering. Through her haste, she scurried off the table- panicked. Instincts. Then they began to form a circle around her, preventing escape. One of the guards ran to get Kratos. Elisabeth cowered, looking for a way out of the circle. No way was she capable of crawling out between their legs.

Zephram finally managed to cut off Nikita before she could leave. He was unaware of what happened to Elisabeth, but he could hear shouts. "Oh Nikita. Elisabeth decided to go with you. She was angry because she felt like she was being ignored and she wasn't able to lip read everyone's lips to see what they were saying. I don't know where she is now. I have a feeling she's doing something awfully wrong upstairs because I can hear shouts."

Nikita glued her eyes to the floor, shaking her head, very vexed at the entire situation dealing with her children and herself. She was very stunned at the odd customs to the country. Perhaps it would of been bright to read up on the customs and laws of the country. Still, they should have the mind not to be foolish in dealing with the Queen. At least some apes in the area was helping like Maximus.
As Nikita was near the exit, she heard a stirring commotion in the vast room beside her. Curiously, she gripped the curved handle, pushing it downward, and using her shoulder to push it open. Her eyes parted wide as an owl. What the? She shook her head, further appalled at the apes. She sighed, dropping her head.
She slipped through the narrow opening of the door walking over to the patrols that slowly attempted to corner Elisabeth. She clicked, shooting her palm to receive the eyes of the guards.
"Hey! What are you doing? That's my human!" She called over loudly, slightly bluffing. "Leave her be, I'm seriously not in the right mind at the moment to confront this situation to the point of stirring my anger." She narrowed her glare at each of the apes.

The apes surrounding Elisabeth parted to allow Nikita to grab her human. The servants knew that she wasn't in the mood and if she was quick to anger, they didn't to want to be apart of it. However, one of the servants spoke up.
"We weren't trying to harm her. We were just trying to get her to stop, but she wouldn't listen to us and nor did she speak to us. We cornered her to protect her from harm. She also knocked over the President's prized trophy. He'll be pissed if he finds out."
-0-
Elisabeth noticed that Nikita was there and scurried over to her. She hung on her arm and quickly signed, "I didn't know what they wanted and they kept chasing me."

Nikita glared over at the docile servants, who were simply informing their attends to Elisabeth, but she believed otherwise. She shrugged, with a roll of her eyes. "I don't care what she bumped over, or the value of it. Yes, you may call me a mindless, ruthless ape for that thought." She shook her head, continuing to respond, "But what I've endured, I don't care."
She walked over to Elisabeth gently grasping the woman's wrist, despite how angry she was. She learned over the years with handling with her children to be fierce, yet soft. She brought Elisabeth to her side, then released. She stepped back, turning on her held to exit out of the door.
Before escaping the room with her human, the Queen elevated a finger above her shoulder. "Inform your President that I'm not paying for that, nor having Elisabeth punished over it." She added, strolling out of the room. She glanced down at Elisabeth that seemed a little frightened. "I'll give you the choice to remain or go with someone, or even the wilds."

It wouldn't be the first time that a human had broken a prized trophy and then the humans would have been punished. They set about cleaning the mess. Anyone would have known that the trophy was broken because it was visible.
She followed her out. Elisabeth didn't want to remain because they would have punished her and being with someone was better than being out in the wilds. Another snake bite? A wild liger? "Someone? You." She insisted. "Besides, there's Ligers out there." She made her choice of being with her instead of being in the wilds. "And I don't want to remain here."

Before the Queen had successfully escaped through the elegant double doors, Dr. Zaius was observing the entire scene for a while, and placed himself before her, blocking the entrance. His paws rose in front, shaking his head. "Now, now, your Highness, I know you're very vexed and frustrated. But please take in consideration that sometimes ancient things are sentimental. Don't you have trophies or objects at your home you cherished?" he asked.

Elisabeth opened and closed her mouth, holding onto Nikita's arm now. "It was an accident!" She blurted out. "Had they not chased me all over or frightened me, I wouldn't have broken that beautiful item. Maybe it can be glued together or made out of clay?"
Elisabeth was trying to be helpful.
The servants cringed because the human had already been through so much. Why punish the human when it was just an accident. She wasn't really aware of what was extremely valuable.
