Chapter 597.
"The monkey's revenge."
(Castaway Island.)
We now see the group, walking through the jungle and all of them dressed to explore, but this is not the part of the jungle they would seek out what else lurks within, this is a pathway that is all too familiar to the group. The pathway that leads to the location where they found the Stellar's Sea Eagle.
Sid is all too excited. "This is it, we're gonna check out the hideout of the man who lived on this island!"
Becca then recalls. "From the reports about this man, he wanted to ensure the survival of the animals from around the world and chose the rarest of the rare, and the sole reason why they ended up here in the first place. Even though the plane carrying them crashed, at least the animals can live in peace here."
Lincoln and the others then walk by two wooden graves, and these are the graves of the two pilots who were killed from the crash. Alan P. Jenkins and Shawn M. Coleson.
"We're on the right track, come on" said Lincoln.
Then Ryan asks. "So, this is gonna be something. We're gonna see the secret and well-fortified home of the greatest animal enthusiast and lover, Emilio Azenvuela. By the way, what of the journal that was never finished?"
Jordan then shows them, since Lincoln and Jordan know own it, and they see the many stuff they both wrote down about the eagles and they're behavior. "We took the privilege of writing down stuff that could prove as new information on animal behavior" said Jordan.
"This also helps us know more about our avian friends." Lincoln looks to the sky and sees the eagles flying high. "Just wanted to make sure that the work he made long go continues. But there are more stuff that could be useful, and we don't write down in here much."
"Wow. To be entrusted with a journal about animals and what they do, now that is awesome!" said Adelaide. "You guys are living the truth of continuing what the guy couldn't finish. He'd be proud of what's happened to you guys, along with Bullets of course."
"Dang right, plus Bullets has a mate and they're both living happily" said Luna. "The dude may be gone, but his spirit lives on to make sure that his work and friend are doing fine, and the animals too."
"Let's hope this place is still the same" said Gretchen. "Storms have been passing by here and we don't know what damages it took. Even though it has lasted on the island for more years than anything else. This is so exciting!" They all continue their journey down the path, but they don't know they're being watched by something from the shadows.
The eagles notice this, and to Bullets. He sees an old friend and he flies down and he interacts with the four-legged predator. The other eagles are surprised, but they continue onward in watching over on anything else that might be following the group. Because they don't wanna have to face those monkeys again.
(Moments Later.)
The group arrives to their destination, and they are surprised to see the tree house, is still standing.
"Well, I'll be. The tree house of Emilio Azenvuela is still standing" said Gretchen. "Look at that place!"
Lincoln smiles and he looks around the area, and he notices that some fruit have gone missin from the tree, and they look freshly picked. "Huh, I guess some animals have come by here before we did."
"Not much folks come to this part of the island" said Becca. "From what the report here says, the researchers and other folks who are from FutureTech normally leave this place alone, so the animals may have ran off."
"Then what the heck are we waiting for?! Come on!" said Sid as she and her little sister race to the tree house, and the others follow them as well.
But Michelle Lewis looks around the place and she notices something off about the place. She can see some tracks, and they don't seem human, and more animal and they're all over the place. 'Those foot prints, they look ape in nature.'
Sid then gets to the ladder and she smiles looking up to the tree house. "Alright, time to see how tall this place is."
Michelle then comes up from behind Luna and Sam and the others. "Guys, I don't think this is such a good idea anymore. Something's wrong…"
The others also climb up the ladder. "What the heck are you talking about?" asked Sam. But then something grabs her leg, and it's a rope. "What the heck?" Then she's pulled up to the tree house, and then Sid and Adelaide are caught inside of a net and pulled into the tree house.
"Sid! Adelaide!" Becca leaps from the vine and begins to climb, but the vine is a trap and she's pulled into a net and then into the tree house.
Luna then grabs Lincoln and Jordan, but the trio are ensnared by a net from above and then pulled up to the tree house, and then Ryan pushes Gretchen out of the way, only to be pulled by a rope to the leg, and then Gretchen is also pulled by a rope to her right arm.
Michelle then pulls out a machete she brought, just in case and she cuts the nets and ropes coming to her, but then some creatures attack from behind and tie her up. "No!" The monkey's all begin to carry her to the top of the tree house.
The eagles spot this and go after them, but the monkeys begin to throw fruit at them and Patriot and Valkyrie get caught inside of a net.
Raptor uses gust and Apollo uses steel claw to attack, but the two avian Pokémon are also wrapped up in vines and held upside down by their foot. Freya and Artemis fly over to help, but the chaos is so much and then Swellow comes in to help them, but the monkeys keep chucking fruits at them.
Bullet and his predator friend overhear this and head to the scene to see what the heck is going on.
Michelle is then tossed into the tree house and she's shocked by what she sees.
Sam is upside down and she gets tied up by her arms, Adelaide and Sid are stuck inside of a net and Becca is being tied up by vines and then a monkey puts an apple in her mouth. Lincoln and Jordan are tied to some old chairs, and Luna is restrained by tons of vines to her arms and legs and she looks angry.
Gretchen and Ryan are stick pinned by a net to the ground, and Michelle sees who's responsible for this. "You!"
She sees this monkey, wearing her old swim suit on its head like some kind of crown and it laughs and dances in place and then the other monkeys yell as well. "What the heck is that thing doing?! Also, that little creep still had my old swim suit!"
"These are the same stupid monkeys as last time!" yelled sam Then a monkey shoves a banana in her mouth. She then spits it out. "Dude! Where was that been?!"
"They want something, but what?!" said Sid. She doesn't know that Adelaide has a plan and she closes her eyes and tries to focus.
The monkey then goes to Michelle and it slaps her in the face. "Excuse me?!" Then it slaps her again. "Oh you did not just…." the monkey then slaps her many times and this is something they did not expect to see.
"What the heck is even happening?" asked Gretchen. Ryan then notices something, the sun is close to his position and he gets his glasses ready and he makes sure the light is reflected onto his glasses and the vine net.
Then the monkey leader reaches into Michelle's shirt, and this makes her angry and she head butts the monkey. "You sick twisted pervert! What the hell is going on here?!"
The monkey leader then hits her in the head with his staff, made from the bone of a dead tapir. Then it goes on her head and searches for ticks. "This is a joke right? What the heck do they want?!"
Sid notices the crown on its head. "Oh, I think I know what he wants. The swimsuit crown he made is getting worn out, so he… Wants a new one…. Oh, boy."
Michelle is now angry as hell. "What?! No! No, way to heck am I giving that sick and twisted freak anything from me!" The rest of the monkey's then hold Michelle so she doesn't fight back.
The leader then messes her hair, and then sits on the woman's lap and slaps her again. "Slap me again, and you're gonna get a beating you'll never ever forget!"
The monkey then gets ready to slap her again, but then something breaks through the tree house wall and they see a Panther has broken in and it roars at the monkeys. The leader of the troop sees this and screeches for the other's to attack the large predator feline.
Then Bullet flies in and he uses his claws and rips off the binds on Luna's arms and she punches the monkeys off of her, and then she goes for Lincoln and Jordan. Then Ryan manages to burn the vines net off and he frees himself and Gretchen, and then they toss the burning net out of the window.
The burning net being tossed out scares the monkeys outside and they scatter, and then Raptor uses gust on the flames and then they all fly into the tree house and join the fight.
Adelaide karate chops the net and she frees herself and Sid, and the two head to their mom and untie her. Then Luna and Lincoln, and Jordan go over to help Sam. Then the panther sees Michelle and removes her vines and then she breaks free and uses the old chair to knock away the monkey leader.
"This is where I draw the line with what happened last time!" She then pulls a piece off the tree house, and she uses the wooden pole to knock away the monkeys.
The panther fights by her side and Bullet flies underneath and then kick away some of the monkeys. Becca sees this and she has an idea. Some of the monkeys are keeping the fruit stash safe, she grabs all of the fruit and throws them all out the window and the rest of the monkeys go after it.
The leader of the troop tries to escape, but Michelle grabs the simian's tail. "Not so fast!" She then pulls the ape leader back in and delivers one heavy duty hard slap and the monkey is launched across the room and into the jaws of the panther.
They all stop fighting off the monkeys and all of them watch as the panther devours the leader of the troop and Sid covers Adelaide's eyes, while Ryan faints at the carnage of the monkey leader getting torn apart.
The monkeys all scatter from this and run for their lives. The panther finishes and then licks its paws and looks to the group and then Bullets sits onto the panthers shoulder. "Dude, are they friends?" asked Sam.
"Dude, why didn't he tell me about this buddy of a feline?" asked Luna.
"Did we just witness what we just saw?" asked Lincoln.
The panther then goes over to Michelle and she pets the animals head. "Well, he did help us and he doesn't seem that dangerous. Thanks." The panther then purrs at her leg and she hugs the large feline.
The others are touched by this scene, but then Lincoln, Luna and Jordan can tell where this is going. 'Oh boy. Looks like someone might want to come along with us, this looks all too familiar.'
Then Becca looks out the window. "Guys, we should get going. Chances some monkeys might come back, and we don't wanna have to deal with more annoying little buggers." They all agree and vacate the place.
They all make their way out of the tree house, and then Gretchen asks. "So, Jacuzzi at the beach house?" Now that one they can all agree. They all make their way down the path back to the beach house, and Michelle watches as the panther leaves and takes refuge in the jungle.
But the panther looks back to her and then runs off. Michelle smiles and she follows the others back to the beach house, and they hope the others back home are gonna be blown away from what they have to tell them on what they encountered.
Day 6 of the one week stay on Castaway Island, in the middle of Lake Eddy.
To be continued in the next chapter.
A/N: Wow! Well, that takes care of the monkeys and it seems like they have a new friend. This is… Well, strange. I think, at least Michelle slapped some sense into those damned monkeys. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
