Around the City

Elisabeth was embarrassed, very unlikely. She wasn't the one that had a disobedient pet. Nikita was patiently waiting as she would anywhere. She didn't think Elisabeth was going to be an issue or fight. Since she was finally out in the open. She was wrong, Elisabeth was acting worse.

Nikita grapples the leash and reels it in over her wrist, already noticing where she was planning to go. If venturing around, nearly touching other apes wasn't enough, her pet decided to yell, ordering the crowd. She immediately drags her back, sighing.

"Please, not now," she lightly sighs, signing. "Don't holler.." she muffles, as others began to condemn her pet, some about her. What a lovable line.

The older orangutan a few apes ahead screeched with annoyance, "Don't you know how to muzzle your mutt?! She's demanding apes! She needs to be taught who reins!"

"Ugh! Seriously? It's enough we have to wait in line, but a mutt calling out?" one complained from behind, rolling her sharp eyes. She flung her arms in the air. "Muzzle her!" she demanded.

Nikita winces, lowering her ears as the embarrassment grew. There was no way she'd leave Elisabeth behind. But she sure was stirring many apes to anger. Perhaps they can do it another time. She was not going to put up with the harsh words from Elisabeth's mistake.

"What kind of owner are you? Allowing your mutt to give orders?" If that holler wasn't bad, other apes decided to leave. One even venture off to the authorities. Talk about a snobby nutcase.

Nikita elevates her hand, giving in. "Alright, alright, that's enough. I'm gone," her head shakes, walking off. She hauled Elisabeth by the leash. She skips her disturbing eyes over to the ape. "There wasn't need for that," she huffs, proceeding to walk off.

She found a lonely bench and plops on it. The line only budged an inch. Talk about slow. She glares over at Elisabeth, but that was shortened. "A muzzle? No that's not necessary."

Nikita gently glimpses over to the long line, softly sighs. She really shouldn't allow a few apes to talk her down, but they were beyond rude. And now that they alerted the authorities? Seriously? Nikita believes the line was overstressed, but the cops? Seriously.

Few apes continued with their slight complaining to cheering on for her to depart. She shook his head, deciding to depart. She gently takes Elisabeth's leash, bringing her closer. She softly strokes her extended locks. She sweetly smiles down at her. "It's not your fault, it's just overreacting apes."

She forlorn looks down at Elisabeth, then over to the crowd. "Come, Elisabeth," she instructs in voice and in sign language. "We don't need to be around this, we can just walk I guess," she muffles, strolling away.

As if it couldn't get any worse, the alerting authorities walk over to Nikita. One place a firm hand on her shoulder. "Wait, wait, miss," he demands her to pause. "I had complaints about your mutt," he informs, information she already knew.

Nikita sighs, willingly turning around. "I'm aware of that, officer. Look, I'm leaving, so there's no point to add any actions," she softly mentions, continuing on her way.

Of course, he didn't give in just yet. "If I see that mutt back, insert a muzzle, okay miss?" he coldly says walking away.

Nikita secretly rolls her eyes. "Don't bother Elisabeth, they're just stingy in these states," she signs. She casually departs from the Aerial Crafts. "Pah," she complains, standing, examine the massive capital. You could easily get lost, but she had a map now. Which, she plucked out and view it.

She listens to Elisabeth condemn herself. the poor little creature being harassed and rudely called at. Nikita sighs, lowering the map, then sadly looks over.

Firstly, she signs at Elisabeth, "don't be so harsh in yourself, " her facial expression displays her feelings as she physical spoke. "Ever since arriving, the patrols seemed to despise us." She sighs, dropping her hands on her lap. "don't let it bother you, we'll just avoid them, " she utters.

She rose off the bench, giving one full glare over at the cop, then the people in line. After, she settles the map onto the bench and wanders away. She didn't care anymore.

Nikita pondered if the line was too long because they were having issues from the crafts? regardless, she didn't want to deal with under pressure, snotty apes. She can understand their frustration but taking it out of a human?

Regardless, Nikita decides to go another route. Hoping this one had barely any apes She hoped Elisabeth, this time wouldn't act up. Her annoyance easily fades, as she continues to walk. She arrives at the Swifttwist. What was that? She'd never heard of it. Curious got the best of her to go discover it.

Before entering the group for the next round. She gently tugs the leash to Elisabeth trying to revive her attention. She signs, "please if you have any issues, let me know before you skyrocket another ape, who is already frustrated or angered." she gently strokes her head. "After this ride, I'll give you a treat." she sweetly bargains.

Nikita frowns, directing her eyes in another direction. She pauses for a moment, pondering on the assumption Elisabeth had wisely created. Where these citizens really think that? Or perhaps it was the long wars that might have killed loved ones? That idea drifted in her mind.

She pats Elisabeth on the shoulder, gently lifting her chin by her other hand. "Elisabeth, I think you're correct. They have a chance to have the enemy ruler in bars, they would do it." she drifts her eyes somewhere else. "I'm still pondering if I did the correct thing here. Ever since I have arrived here, I've been treated wrongly,"

She lowers her finger. "Elisabeth, don't allow the others, what they said taunt or even control you," she strictly states, not wanting words to bring her down as others had done to her. She slowly drifts back, warmly smiling. "I'm not going to allow some outrageous apes stop me from my wanting to see." she dips her head.

"I think it is broken, Elisabeth. I was waiting there for hours." she decides to sit down for a moment. "I missed good views by the stupid line," she shakes her head. She sighs, rising back up. She fingers Elizabeth to follow.

"Come, let's just get going," she strolls over to the train. She leans against the side. "We'll just ride this one. Wish they had one for just a small family," she shakes her head. She peers down at Elisabeth. "How are your shoes treating you? I'm sure you're not used to them."

Nikita grimaces, another call out? She can't openly use her sign language to reveal her rage? Ugh, she's going to be a handful. Elisabeth preferred her when she didn't want any pets from this judgmental place. She quietly settles her finger on Elisabeth's lips.

"Please, please Elisabeth. I'm already in difficulty with being a faulty image to the irrational people here. Can, you just please keep your opinions to herself?" she somewhat appealed, not desiring to be harsh, but she just might have to next time. Her endurance is gently fading. She's a very patient ape.

She glimpses down at Elisabeth who exclaims out the errors with the broken down train. For a moment she shook her head. "Uh, yes. I hate having any of my pets on a leash. But last night, you almost got hit. I don't want that occurring again," she explains, with a faded frown, stroking Elisabeth's head. "You earned yourself the leash."

She smiles, subduing her frown. "I'm glad they're good. Better? Perhaps I need to buy you similar shoes at the pet store," she rubs her chin, peering around. "But I don't think they sell similar shoes from ape to human?" she muffles, hoping they would.

There is it, that holler. Though she was correct. She anxiously smiles, looking around as the stares grew on the two. Oh, no. Not again. She gently hauls Elisabeth back. "Why do you have so much energy? I haven't even given you a treat." she drops her head. "Aye, I yi..." She bounces her eyes peering over to the group. Maybe they might listen?

Nikita was too stressed to understand what her human had sensed. She had unintentionally drawn her out, ignoring her jittery, hollering warning. She figured it was another episode to degrade apes, further, or even retaliate in anger when they were harsh back.

It took her a moment, to catch some inhalations, and finally open her eyes. She wasn't familiar with machinery or what chemicals were correct. She glances down at Elizabeth, displaying a disturbing grimace, bouncing her eyes between the angry guests on the train and back to her pet. She curled her lip inward, pondering. But each moment that passed was more deadly.

Was she serious, can this human predict. At first, she was skeptical, looking over. Risk something much far worse in trying to go forth on an assumption of the train, or ignore it and continue with no problems with the public. She had been already embarrassed, condemn, wanted for jail time. Ugh was it worth it?

Explode, death? Oh, this was a very critical response. One that could bring the treaty away, and form a war. She intently stared into her eyes, studying them. The fumes continued to grow worse. Nikita wasn't familiar with it. The innocence and pleading clouding Elisabeth's eyes. No way this was fake.

"Gah!" she brought forth her compassion that had troubled her many situations. She didn't want the apes to perish if a chance. She scurries over, draws out a gun. With an intent fear of what might happen next, the orders them, but it wasn't as harsh as someone would predict.

"Off! Now, get off! Or..." she was horrid at this, and highly regret it. She wasn't sure what she was saying. Intense sweat streamed down her face, with a light shifting of her body. She could not stand what she was doing. "Or, I'll," she sighs. "shoot," she muffles. "That human says it will explode, go on and get off," so crazy this attempt was.

It did not take one moment before the families, and single apes hastily left the station. Threatening families?! This is just, cruel. Young chimps began to wail as their mothers drew away, far away.

If that wasn't worse, the security guard that was crossed with her before didn't pause to bolt over with his pistol already prepped. "Alright, you freeze! Don't shoot, or I will!" he warns.

Nikita froze, uncertain. But she did not want more trouble, she tosses it. "I believe this human," she utters. "You should be pleased, but no you're frightened by what's in front and not wanting to understand the reasons."
