The Promise

Ok so here's the next chapter hope y'all like it, its a lil bit better then the Prologue I promise you that much, so I hope y'all enjoy it.

PS. I might rewrite the Prologue not sure yet.

Rocket was pacing back and forth in the meeting hut that he and his counsel met in but the only ones in his counsel who were there was Maurice and Buck, "What has happened to our Caesar?" Rocket demanded as he growled as he stood in front of them.

Maurice was silent as he watched his leader, 'I am not sure my friend. But whatever happened we will help him.' He soon signed after a few minutes, they both looked up at their gorilla friend who nodded and grunted, "He freed me from. Cage. Owe him my life. Who ever has done this. Shall pay." He growled as he pounded his chest once sealing the promise.

Rocket nodded as he looked at Maurice, "We will have to speak to the rest of the counsel, explain who he is, how he got here." Maurice nodded and hooted softly,

Rocket grunted as he remembered something, "Where is Koba?" He looked toward the gorilla guard who held his leaders gaze, "Hunting. Teaching younglings the way." He answered.

Maurice hooted again then signed, 'We will have to explain to him once he returns.' Rocket nodded as he thought about his scared second in command and grunted, "Koba never met Caesar for long, very brief, we must watch him once we tell him about Caesars past with humans." The others nodded in agreement.

Maurice looked out toward the gates in thought, 'How long will he be gone?' He signed to Buck who answered with, "Tomorrow morning. Be back at noon."

Maurice nodded then let a big yawn out making Rocket chuckle and pat his friend on the back, "Go to bed Maurice." Rocket looked to buck and grunted, "Put a guard in front of the healing hut, I want no one to enter there with out my say so, understand?" Buck nodded, "Guard it myself." Buck turned around and was half way out the room when he stopped, "Goodnight Rocket. Maurice. Tell Tink. I said so too." Then left the room leaving the Chimpanzee and Orangutan alone.

Maurice huffed out a laugh as Rocket shook his head, 'He is as protective of your wife as you are.' Rocket shot him a playful glare and turned to leave, "Go to bed Maurice, we will see if Caesar wakes then." He is stopped as Maurice hooted out, "Good. Night. Friend." His speech even worse then Bucks.

Rocket nodded and left the room to go to his own hut.

Tinker was pacing around their room when Rocket got there, she hooted as she rushed to him, "Was it him?" She asked as she helped her husband to bed, he grunted as his sore back ached from standing straight for so long.

Her question finally settled in his mind as he huffed, "Yes its him." He looks up at his wife and gave her a small sad smile and touched his forehead to her as he continued,

"Its our Caesar, he has returned to us."

Hey you guys, I know this one is short but I swear the next one will be a lil longer and we get to see our favorite Bonobo in the next chapter.

I hope y'all are liking this so far.
