People and creatures of all kind, I know you all wonder this, for a few brave souls as asked this. Unfortunately, I was not able to answer at the time for the fact that I didn't know. Now I do, and I will now be able to tell all you. All of you have wondered why we, the monkey team, the cybernetic protectors of Shugazoom and the beyond, would give a time of day to an orphan boy who has never even knew his parents, who has a habit of sneaking out into various dangerous and unknown places, and has the emotional needs of any child. Most of you are content to believing it's because he has the Power Primate and awakened us and is destined to defeat the Skeleton King. Though I admit, we thought this was true at first; it isn't and will never be true.
We do more than what is required for our young leader, next to training him and providing him the natural necessities of food, clothing and shelter. We do many things from reprimand him for any wrongdoings he may do and help him learn what to do and not to do, to teaching him the needed skills of roller skating, cake baking and having decent pillow/water fights (it happens when you mix bath time and sleeping time together, you try it). And I will admit, we tend to find ourselves a bit overprotective of the boy. But thankfully, I don't think he minds too much.
It was during all these things, I think, that made me realize, who this kid is to us, to me. He isn't just a leader, or a student, or a great friend.
He is ours.
To protect, to teach, to play with, to watch grow, he is ours to do all that with. Our love for him is incomparable. He is a part of this family, our family. He is a brother, a nephew, and a son rapped all in one. He's our little boy. And though I won't admit it out loud, he's my baby.
Through the good, the bad, and the horribly ugly (when it happens, watch out! It is extreme) we would never have it any other way.
