Ari approaches Blue Eyes with a sheet full of moss that was a bit sore from his injuries, takes some of that moss and brings it closer to him but Blue Eyes complains.
"I haven't touched you yet." she said a little amused, she brings the moss closer and he complains again. "Not yet."
In one quick motion, she applies the moss to his wounds while Blue Eyes tries to endure the pain.
"There is." she said while wiping her hands. "You were very lucky." get away a bit.
"I know, you and someone else have told me that I could have died." signed as he slowly got up. "Although Koba said that scars make you stronger."
"Not all of them, there are scars that only cause pain and suffering." Ari said a little serious. "Although that is true, a little more and your brother would have grown up without a brother and would have been heir to the throne." Smiling a little.
"That sounded like you didn't like to see me again." He sign a little funny.
"You must rest, you must let your wounds heal for today and the medicinal plant to take effect." going to the exit of the cabin.
Blue Eyes made a sound and Ari turns to see it.
"My mother and Lake told my father and me what you and Kim did for my mother and my brother." Blue eyes move closer to her. "Thank you." he said with difficulty.
Ari is surprised, but she just nods and walks away leaving him alone.
"My wife told me what you and Ari did for her, thanks." Caesar signed with a small smile.
"Don't thank me, I'm glad that what I barely learned when human society still existed has worked." Kim said with a smile.
"Still, you are helping me in some way to show that there are good humans, that not all are bad as most apes believe." Caesar signed while viewing his colony.
"I'm glad to hear that, I hope one day I can see apes and humans live in harmony." she said with a big smile, but that smile slowly fades. "Sure, as long as the ape flu doesn't end up extinguishing us." remembering that possibility.
Caesar grabs her shoulder, he knows how much she must have suffered.
"It won't happen, believe me, that disease won't hurt you again."
Kim smiles a bit as she wipes a tear, says goodbye to him and goes to her cabin to rest as helping with a birth was a tiring experience.
Caesar smiles, take a seat on the roots of the tree and returns to see where the city used to be and where surely now only ruins remain.
He hears a noise and turns to meet Maurice, who sits next to him.
"Another son."Maurice signed, congratulating his friend.
Caesar smiles.
"Makes me think how far we've come, Maurice."
Together they looked at the forest and the ruins of the human city.
"Seems long ago, still think about them?"
"Humans?" Caesar asked.
Maurice nodded in reply.
Caesar shrugged, knowing he couldn't deny his best friend since he knows him so well.
"Sometimes." admitting while momentarily seeing the city.
Caesar began to remember when he lived with Will, Caroline and Charles, the happy and wonderful times that he lived with them and with very few humans that he got to know who were good to him.
"Didn't know them like you did,"Maurice signed "Only saw their bad side."
"Good, bad...doesn't matter now,"Caesar signed. "Humans destroyed each other."
"Apes fight too." Maurice signed
"Be we are family,"Caesar insisted, smiling.
Maurice conceded at the point rather than agreeing with it.
"For a long time I believed that the humans were gone." Caesar signed as he watched the fog begin to cover the city.
"For a long time we haven't had a trace of them, until we found Kim." Maurice signed. "A human raised by apes."
"And those apes were raised by humans like me ... but they had better luck than me." Caesar signed with a small smile. "Kim and her family are proof that humans and apes can live in harmony."
"I know, but we don't know what happened to the rest of her ape family and her brother." Murice signed concerned
"You have no idea how I want to know what happened, maybe that's the reason why Ari holds a grudge against her species." Caesar signed concerned. "Kim for some reason doesn't want to tell me."
"Maybe it's because it's so painful, remember how Kim cried when she told us what happened in all these years with humans."
"I understand, Will created the virus that attacked humans and they helped each other kill each other." Caesar sighs sadly. "What if they're really gone and Kim is the only one left?"
"She and Ari haven't seen a single human after losing their family, possibly she's the last one left." Maurice sighs sadly. "Poor Kim."
Although there was that possibility, Caesar had some hope. The human population had been so large before they clashed. Surely there would be more survivors like Kim, but he knew he didn't have to have hope since Kim herself didn't have it and she just wanted to stay away from humans and he wanted to know why.
Ari looked at them from her cabin and had read their sign language, she is depressed when she realizes that they had not seen a human in years until Kim and her arrived, and the possibility that Kim is the last human saddens her, although I knew. that she shouldn't, since her sister doesn't want to see any humans because of her uncle.
Look at Kim getting settled to sleep a bit since she was exhausted since like Ari she had a very long and exhausting day.
"Hey Kim, have you ever thought about humans?" Ari asked since she was very curious
Kim looks at her surprised by that question.
"Very few times, but I always think that I am the only one left and I hope so." Kim responds a little serious.
"But wouldn't it be great to meet your own kind?"
"No, humans have only caused pain and disaster, but there are times when I wish that apes and humans could live in harmony ... but it is a dream that I see as impossible." she said as she lay down.
"The apes have also caused pain and disaster.
"No Ari, they haven't caused it like humans." she answered without seeing her.
