The victim shook his head. "No. It didn't smell like a human. But it's teeth were sharp like canines. The humans canines aren't that sharp."
Maxwell
Maxwell didn't care at this point of what happened to him, even as he was silenced. He wasn't serious, was he!? Was he that stupid to think that he'd paint paintings with blood! It even sickened him. It was beyond him. They weren't that stupid were they?! They had to be.
Guardian from the Village
"All the paints Maxwell uses comes from tubes. There's no way he would have used an ape's blood to paint his paintings. I buy his paints all the time. There is no blood-red color in his collection and it's highly unlikely the boy did any thing of the like." His guardian finally pointed out in defense to the young ape raised man. "There's only one tube of red paint and that's from a tube. When he didn't return, I thought a liger found him. I sent a group of apes to search. I found a painting, all his paint tubes, and half his brushes. The other brushes that he uses are like his prized possession. Hurting another ape is the least of his worries." The guardian went on. "He has health issues which is why he cannot commit such a crime."
Maxwell
Maxwell heard the familiar voice of his guardian. It wouldn't matter anyway. They were painting a horrible picture of him hurting an ape and releasing those humans based on his 'instincts'.
Maximus
"I will try to keep her quiet." Maximus spoke.
Rowan
Rowan shifted his position. "Because she has proof that Melanie may have been in her care along with her sister, Carol, who is missing and we don't know who took her."

Melanie glanced up as Rowan spoke. "No! I never was cared for by another ape! I only met Esmeralda once. Carol was taken in by Esmeralda when she ran away from our egotistical fat-head of a father. Carol would agree where-ever she is now! Maybe some other crazed human nabbed her!"
Hearing what Kratos said about him using blood for a medium made her cover her face and scream into her hands. Trying to stifle it from their hearing. Then she looked up and shook her head. Maxwell didn't even do any of that. She really began to think that these apes were selective in their hearing and it made chill go up and down her spine. She grew frustrated and was glad that she wasn't made to sit on anyone's lap! Or else she'd be one hell of a squirmy human, uncomfortable.
Melanie thought carefully and shook her head. "Preposterous." She said loudly and clearly for all to hear. "Out of touch with reality and to say that a human would stoop to such a level is madness in itself." Melanie had heard that from somewhere, a long time ago.
"And why would Maxwell harm an ape when he was raised by them and cared for by them? Why would a 'killer' take the time to try to save this apes life? He set free humans? Big deal. Maybe he felt that they had families to go to. Maybe they had children and they were home with their other parent. Maybe they were also from his village and they ventured too far or were hunting for that village."

"Hey! Maybe the psycho is an ape named Galen since he suggested it. Maybe he paints with that medium! I don't even use that medium in my landscapes. I use blue, green, white, purple, and yellow."

Maximus rubbed his face and then his voice boomed throughout the tribunal room. "Enough!" He ordered clenching the sturdy material of the leash. It was as if the humans were trying to control the tribunal with their own comments. It wouldn't work out that way.
"Kratos...It may be a good idea to muzzle both humans Melanie and Maxwell."

Venus gritted, revealing a tooth, she was disgusted by Maximus's response. Lightly she curled her fingers. "That's because I don't believe you. Teasing, and lying is a custom to a few apes I've encountered." She dropped her fingers. "Especially the council." She added, watching the humans go back and forth, and the other apes. His sudden holler to finally end the argument phased her lightly. She winced as the demanding voice bothered her ears.

Zaius was becoming highly annoyed by Melanie, as the other one that is being convicted wasn't as bad. He harshly yanked the leash closer to him, scowling. "And you wonder why apes slap you? Listen to what you hollered out, and won't shut up on!" He called out, releasing her leash for her to step back. Of course that didn't take long for her to once again call out and wrongly defend. Then, Maximus's voice loudly commanded the humans. Zaius rubbed his face to. "I agree with the muzzle. Better then using electricity, yet."

Melanie was really starting to dislike this unfair council! Twisting words to their advantage and only wanting to accuse Maxwell with a fake accusation.
Then Maximus' voice boomed out and that hurt her ears. Muzzle? No! She took a few steps back, no way was she was going to wear that contraption! She didn't even like the sound of that. She couldn't get too far from Zaius due to the leash. And whenever she spoke, he'd harshly yank her towards him just to add further salt to her injury.
She looked away and slowly began to scratch her arm.

Regardless of what Melanie wanted, or disliked, she would view a patrol being motioned over by Zaius. Zaius reeled in the leash, wrapping the material around his head, hauling her over. Once close enough, he grasped the back of the neck, with his other had holding her in place. "I warned you three times." He growls, as the guard secures her face with the muzzle. After, he released her. "You're lucky you're not mine, just temporary."

Melanie saw a guard walking over and she found that she couldn't get too far before she was hauled over. She tried to fight with her hands, even as the muzzle was put on her face. She couldn't move because she was being held by the neck. Once fitted with it, she was released. When she tried to speak- she found only pain.
Her hands flew to the muzzle, and she then tried to find a way to remove it. She finally found herself kicking at his leg, but only light.
Wait- she wasn't his? Only temporary? She'd never stop talking unless they ripped her tongue out.

Maxwell glared at the guard and the other council member. He was furious. "Hey! Leave her alone you brute! She's been through more than enough torture and slaps to last a lifetime!"
Maxwell was seething. And it was also apparent that he was protective of the girls.

Unfortunately, Melanie couldn't speak but only retaliate in physical means. He observed her act out I'm astonishment, and fighting. He chuckled, amused. These muzzles were complicated to remove, and required intent strength. Once she kicked him. He glared, grapses her leg, and dangled her in the air. He didn't stop either. His scowl traveled to Maxwell. "I wouldn't start or you'll get beyond a muzzle. We don't put up with that behaviour, especially here."

Melanie was grasped by her leg and was dangled in the air. She despised that motion and it was only amusing to him. She couldn't talk or do anything about the muzzle. Her hands flung for any surface. Then her shirt slid down- because you know gravity- her back- littered with scars. Melanie tried to hide them.
She felt her eyes moistening with tears.

Maxwell returned his scowl. The ape-raised human wasn't foolish enough to start anything that he couldn't handle. "You're the one who's heartless and cruel. My guardian never told me that the apes in this city are ten times harsh."

Maximus tugged the leash, but not harshly, towards him. He gave her a warning glare and said, "Don't test me, Venus. You will get a muzzle. Not one more word out of your mouth."
He thought about ownership. "The ownership of these humans should be considered as well. I have claimed Venus, but she will spend two months in prison. Then she will be utilized on the target practice field, and then in the gladiator ring. This way this will teach her that her actions have consequences."

Galen was already considering that. "I have thought of ownership over Melanie, but she is way too wild at times. Maybe my human should also spend time in prison to see that I'm not as harsh as Maxwell believes." Galen also added. "I was intending to present Melanie to my girlfriend. But she is so - out of control- I may not want her after all this trouble! She has a fighting spirit. BUT my girlfriend would rather have a human who isn't as wild and not a spitfire."
