Maximus turned his stony gaze to Maxwell. "You're an artist." It was a cold statement. "And what were you doing in the jungle, away from your guardian or owner? Where is your collar? Shame. It is a shameful act to attack a young gorilla. It is a foolish attempt to also follow the suggestions of a gladiator. Shame on you, human- Maxwell. Shame-"
He looked down at his file. "Since this is your first offense, I think we should have him do forty hours of servitude in the palace, under the guard."

"My guardian or 'owner' allows me to leave the village to paint the jungle." He finally said, noticing that Venus was starting to cut her binds. They weren't aware or so he thought.
His owner spoke, "We use a microchip. Had I known what he was planning to do, I would have stopped him."
The patrol apes checked them, but saw nothing.

Melanie could believe how big the council members were and she was silent. What if they started asking her questions? Questions that she couldn't answer. They had two guards behind her, flanking her. Melanie couldn't run, or sneak out. It was impossible because there were too many of them in the room. Many apes from nearby villages. She looked around for Esmeralda, a familiar ape. Any ape really.

Maximus looked towards Venus, noticing that she had continued to defy them, being trialed multiple times. This girl has never learned to submit. "And you-should be ashamed of yourself. Using your training against your own master. And are influencing wild humans to revolt."
Then Maximus' gaze turned to Melanie. She was looking around, quietly. "Don't even think of escaping, pup." He warned. "You will learn your place soon enough. You are new here. Can anyone vouch for the human pup?"
Then to Venus. "Shame on you- for hurting or murdering your master."

Galen nodded. "I. She is my human. I captured her, but I may not take her as my own because she is a lot of trouble when she's around the albino. Maxwell is also trouble. I wouldn't put it past my own human to try to flee. She's tried several times to flee at numerous times."

Rowan also was present in the tribunal. Since he was also a witness to what happened between the three of them. Rowan stood by Maxwell and Venus. Not only that, but another guard stood near Venus.

Melanie rolled her eyes. "More fat-headed egotistical apes running around." She mumbled to herself in particular. "How many fat-heads are there?" What she really meant was how big are these ape's egos?

Silas had arrived early and watched it from the background, even shaking his head a few times from the responses from a few. He would wait calmly before he would ever imply anything. Listening to a few more, even believing Maxwell was bluffing, twisting words to try and have them believe him. But, remained quiet.
He rose, walking closer to the council that was above. "I'm sorry, but I and Galen were a witness to him admitting to the crime. When he was in that bloody jungle tree." He called out, very vexed about the entire situation that escalated. His red hair was dressed in clods of mud, even fragments of foliage.
He grasped the edge of the podium leaning in closer to Maximus. "You're only going to try that wicked albino over just murder, she attacked three other apes, even tried choking two!" He called out, slamming on the edge. His wounded fingers pointed at Melanie as she walked in then at Maxwell. "Those two were influenced by Venus to tie me up to a horse, and had me to drag." He added before strolling away.
As he headed over to his original seat, his ears listened to the light remark. He slapped her face, continuing to stroll out. Not caring about the reactions.

With all the slaps against her face, it still stung and hurt. Even her teeth hurt. She yelped in pain. But when some ape tried to check her out, she flinched visibly and hid her face with her arms.

Maxwell tried to free himself but the binds held a little too well to the ring. If he wasn't bound to that metal ring, he'd comfort Melanie pronto more than these apes. He gave a glare at Silas as he slapped Melanie again. "You stupid dirty ape! Leave her alone!" He yelled, losing his temper. He had never lost his temper once. But seeing Melanie slapped silly for absolutely nothing was the last strike.

Venus amused gaze hadn't shift from Maximus, some would say she was plotting as she severed th he binds. She leaned closer, secretly passing on the scapel. "Shame on me? Useless words council, considering you influenced your own to your sickened belief. " She smirked. "Of course, we're stronger together." To draw away the attention of Maxwell, Venus continued to her distraction. "Ha! If you can't handle a human, especially when your a claimed hunter, there's issues."

Maximus laughed lightly. "Useless words, human? I think not. Do not meddle in the affairs of apes because you would not understand, dear human." Maximus said, coolly. His tone was like that of a parent scolding a child. "You fail to see that human strength is not very strong against an ape's brute strength." He was looking at Venus as he spoke.
He directed his attention to Melanie as he heard a 'resounding' slap through the room. Then noticing that Melanie was flinching and trying to hide her face from the apes who were trying to check her face. He wondered how many times she had been slapped or smacked around by the hunters.

Zaius was resting his chin on his palm reading the files out of boredom. He tapped on the edge of the file as a few things received his attention. As he was about to ask a few questions, ruckus began. Between everyone. Zaius clenched his jaws, pounding the top. "Silas! I suggest you calm yourself in this tribunal at once or I'll have you escorted out." He warned, then the ruckus stirred further. "Maxwell! I suggest you ease down or your outcome won't be pleasant." He threatened, turning his focus on Melanie. "I want that pestilent in a shock collar until this is over. Maxwell being ape-raised will not." He added, rubbing his face. "Your outcome is already on the edge Gladiator, I suggest, no, I order you to keep quiet."

Venus smirked, crossing her wrists leaning over. "No not at all. The wounds of each hunter proves wrong doesn't it?" She added before boomed his voice in. Her fingers rose, taking a step back. "No Gladiators don't kill at all." She added before being quiet. She hour Maxwell finally got out.

Maxwell took the scalpel and began to cut the binds, like Venus had. He couldn't wait to go to Melanie at once. He talked back to Zaius. "Like hell I will! All Silas has ever done to that girl is smack her around like a damn punching bag." While he continued to cut. It was the first time he has ever spoken back to an ape.
