Maximus stroked his chin. "Mhm...Target practice for the gladiator. Bartu would have a field day." He spoke softly. "Venus and Bartu are a good match for each other." He said softly and grinned.
"For once, I would actually approve ownership of Venus to Bartu. Think he would take on this crazy human here?" He indicated to Venus. "She'd have no choice but to obey then." Maximus enjoyed being harsh. "I know exactly what I would do with Venus. First thing's first....Get her to the Gladiator Rings, have her fight one of our best fighters." He was stroking his chin as he spoke. Then he heard the pleading from Melanie. "Oh good luck, Zaius. This one is almost about broken in. Or not."

Rowan leashed Venus and dragged her over to Maximus, listening to what he was planning to do. Then talked about how Bartu would really enjoy using Venus as target practice. Then talking about the gladiator rings, pitted against one of their best gladiators.
Soon, all three humans were near the council members.

Kratos reached his palm over the the leash, taking it from the guard's grasp. He harshly tugged Maxwell close, inches from his side. He lowered his face, intimidating a cold scowl. "You speak in this tribunal when you're asked, traitor. Sickens me that a noble ape-raised human would do something like this, especially free and harm the race that raised you!" He called out.
Kratos returned to the tribunal. "Alright, alright. So you have no footage of him actually doing it? Any witnesses? With not having the evidence analyzed as it should of been, would not benefit." His head shook.
For a moment he focused on Maximus, listening to his devious schemes. His head shook. "I'm afraid not. Bartu would rather have her stuffed like that poor other exotic girl he tried to get. I'm not foolish why he fought so hard." He snorts, adding, "if you wish to punish her without a trial go on ahead. Technically she's free with no owner." He looked down at Maximus. "Shame this human is going to be treated like a dog instead of an ape."

Maxwell felt the tug on the collar which caused him to choke and he wasn't used to being on a leash, nor having a collar. He didn't like the sound of that- and already, it was about to get a little worse for Maxwell. He was no traitor. There were no witnesses! And now they were making him out to be a 'dog' for the rest of his life. Well, a short life that is.

Galen shook his head. "No other witness except the victim. No other ape saw him act out."

Maximus grabbed the leash. "I was just thinking she would be great stuffed for all the world to see." He wasn't planning on it. But he sure could threaten all he wanted. It was his 'harshness'. Provided that he would enjoy watching her fight against their finest fighters. "Well, she'll learn her place soon enough. If not, then it's target practice! I'm sure our gorillas would love to have a challenge on the field." He smirked.

Kratos noted Maxwell reactions, and smirked. "Don't worry Maxwell you'll be taught verify well, as it's your first time, and you'd be lost." he whispers, adding baby voice to provoke. "You might not get tried for this incident. But you attacked several apes, and released humans! That you'll be tried for. Rowan would like a simple community service for your first defence, well you did more then one thing." he snorted
When he heard Galen's words, he cringed, curling the leash tip around his fingers. "Of course not. I seriously wished you analysed, but since you didn't, we have no solid proof. But questioning. "No witnesses? But the victim. Tell me, how hard to feel the bash before you were knocked out?"
He listened to his partner continued to ruthlessly threaten at Venus. He smirked at his suggestions. "There's a reason why I suggested the two. Death doesn't mean a thing, and wouldn't care." His finger flicked. "You can have her at Target Practice, but request to keep her alive. So they found literally cause any damage, but have to keep alive, even if it's in the brink of death. But I like your suggestions, do what you like. "

Dr. Zaius roughly grappled the leash, forcefully luring Melanie closer to him. His drained eyes examined her, even adding a cold smile. "Such a young pup who believes she can do whatever, and she owns the world." He snorted, drawing her a little closer. "You better watch what you say, next disgraceful calling at my kind, you will be dressed in a shock collar." he threatened, then settled back into his seat. "Melanie it's better to comply. He added. The victim might help.

Maxwell
Maxwell gave a withering glare in Kratos' way. He was not a 'baby'. He was an 18 year old adult and how can a human hurt a big gorilla with just fists and there were no weapons besides paint brushes and a paint scalpel. The rock that was on the table was overlooked. But he didn't throw a rock! So, he freed a few of his fellow humans. So what? He didn't see the harm in 'freeing' humans! Community service? Whatever that was. He didn't care for the way he was being treated.
Galen
Galen pointed to the evidence. "Well, his weapon was a huge rock. It's covered in the victim's blood. I and others believe Maxwell used that to hurt the victim. And among other things, attacking other apes. He was trying to save the girls from harm by Silas. There was no telling what else the boy was thinking of except putting himself into danger so the girls wouldn't come to any harm."
Maximus
Maximus nodded to Kratos. He'd do all that he could do teach her.
Melanie Melanie yelped as she was dragged over to Zaius. She didn't like the sound of that and it made her worried that she'd find herself in a shock collar which is what she had seen Venus wore and she knew that it caused a lot of pain. "No! I don't want that horrid thing around my neck!" Melanie protested.

Venus winced at Rowan's cruel, heartless words. That ape was such a jerk! ALways taunting and threatening, no different then the apes she was surrounded by. She glared over at Rowan as he inched closer and forced her on a leash. At first, she'd tug on it, even digging her heels into the floor. She'd seen Maximus before and the way he treated humans, even if they were owned. Of course, Rowan was as ruthless, even Galen. She scowled over at Rowan as he swiftly handed him the leash, figuring she'd probably run the moment they swap. She'd listen to the harsh suggestions, and wonder, nothing different except target practice. She huffed, glancing around for another way out.

The victim walked up the stand and looked at Maxwell. He gave his statement.
"I was patrolling an area around a few cages. It was pitch black at the last cage and went over there to see why it was dark. I didn't see any person or any human- like that one near the President. It wasn't the albino. It wasn't the girls. It was eerie. I must have been there for a few seconds before I felt something collide with my head. My vision went fuzzy, but still couldn't see any one. Then I blacked out and something yanked my hand. I was out of it. I could feel the pain as if something was biting or sawing my hand. Then something went away- Then I felt something trip over me and gasp. It was now a male human. He had tripped over me. I could feel pain and burning. Then my arm stopped hurting. I don't know what else happened. But the male human possibly saved my life because my arm was bleeding out and when I awoke, my hand was reattached." The victim shook his head. "Then I came to when a gorilla found me and began to gather evidence. The other hunters helped me to the hospital. After that, I don't know what went on."

Kratos observed each of the humans as the witness was prepping to talk. He listened to Melanie and glances over and down. "If you comply and obey Zauis, I assure you will not be dressed in one." He states.
He peered down at Maxwell, whispering,"that goes for you. If you don't want one then." He noted that Venus was looking around. "Keep that white rat in check." He ordered his patrol.
"I'm not sure your name, but I asked you about the bash. Was it heavy or light?" He asked once again. "Shame we have no witnesses or actually proof but a rock and.." he scratched his head. "Before you were hit, hear anything?"

Melanie
Melanie didn't like the fact that she would have to - do that. She had no idea what awaited for her with Zaius and she also knew it wouldn't be easy to find her sister..and where was Esmeralda? She was supposed to be here! Maybe she wasn't to be here. Well, if she could get off the leash, she could go on her own mission and look. But it was too big- the city was too big and she'd get lost. Well, getting lost was bad. Her thoughts were elsewhere and she was going to curse her luck once again because it seemed to have always run out.
The Victim
"It was rather hard and I did hear shuffling. But I didn't see any human. I have good eyes."
Maxwell
He was completely innocent, but he knew that the next painting he would paint would be empty and black. Well, that is if he ever painted again.

Maximus smirked as he pulled Venus closer to him. He made sure to keep a tight tight grip on her leash. "I would advise you to behave and your stay will be a little more pleasant than a cold cage...But otherwise, your behavior guarantees either or. Behave- warm place to sleep.. Misbehave, cold cage."
Rowan
"Also, there is the Central City School Teacher, Esmeralda. She's not here in the tribunal. She's been unable to take off today since she's teaching bright young minds to read and write."
Galen
"I have a question." Galen spoke up. "What about the paint brushes and red on one of them? Could that be evidence of him using the blood as a medium?"

Maxwell couldn't believe the question about the paint brushes! That was gross in itself and he made a disgusted face! "Oh my god! You're not effing serious, are you!? What kind of a sick perverted psycho are you!?" It was the first time that Maxwell had ever heard of blood being used as a medium. It even made him green in the face. Gruesome even. "You're macabre! You're sick! You're nutso! Maybe you hurt the victim! You act all innocent and all! Only a psycho would ever stoop to that level! Urgh! Gross! Sickening!"
He was reeling.
Rowan
He was also looking a little disgusted. "Galen! That is the most horrid thing to ask!"
