<h4>Chapter 9: Found</h4>


    From my first observation these creatures were going to be the one, when I stepped into the group, I could feel them go into a state of alert, knowing that they weren''t going to attack. I stood still and let them observe and assess me, I could feel their curious eyes roaming my body while asionally looking behind me.


    The one who appeared to be the leader made a slight noise and one small monkey that had been trailing me for some time since I stepped into the wood jumped onto its shoulder and made a quiet noise.


    I understood what they were saying so it didn''t surprise me when the leader seemed less cautious. It made a slight noise to the group informing them that it was okay.


    The little one who couldn''t contain their curiosity any longer, all jumped and started grabbing my furs, climbing all over me.That caught the other gori''s attention, who paused to see my reaction. They wanted to see how I would react but I paid no mind to them and started a chase and hunt game with the little ones.


    The y went on for a little while before the young ones were called back by their parents to feed. Now free I found an unupied tall tree and smoothly climbed it to continue my observation.


    The goris are known for their strength and familial bonds. As I quietly observe the group of goris in their natural habitat, witnessing theirplex social interactions,munication through gestures and vocalizations, and their ability to use tools such as branches and rocks.


    It amazed me how they live in symbiosis with other primate creatures, the primate creatures that are smaller than the goris act like scouts and watch out for any threat.


    When a threat is found, they run back and inform the goris, who then proceed to fight or chase away the threats. The lead gori has an ability to conjure stones that itunches at threat to chase them away or seriously wound them.


    When it was time to feed, a female gori would let out a roar at an open field where fruits of different kinds areid out for everyone to eat. I noticed that a certain gori isn''t always there when it''s time to feed. Instead its own food is brought to it.


    The gori looks different from the others, this one has a red fur all around it and sparks of fire can be seen when it breathes out, it looks strong and should be used to protect the habitat like the others, not to be treated like an outcast.


    Establishing a connection with the lead gori, I inquired about the differential treatment of the fire gori. It wasn''t able to urately exin but i was able to vaguely understand what it said " Fire not good for this" while pointing to the surrounding woods.


    " But fire is good for this" it said while pointing to the sky and making a motion for flying birds. When it said that, it clocked on me that having a fire ability in this sort of habitat surrounded by woods isn''t necessarily good.


    Also the fire gori isn''t necessarily an outcast, instead it lives on top of the waterfall ready for anyrge flying creatures that wants to take any of the apes as its meal.


    From what I have seen, it sprays fire from its mouth enough to scare away any normal flying creature.


    Having integrated myself into the primate tribe, I resided with them for a considerable period, often assisting in repelling potential dangers alongside them. One day something happened that made me see an end to my journey.


    A roar came from the top of the waterfall causing every creature nearby to look up. I was asleep on top of my tree but the roar woke me up, I spread out my senses and it pinged a flying dinosaur with lightning dancing around it heading fast toward this habitat.


    I thought about chasing away the creature but decided against it and proceeded to see how the Primates would react to this danger. The me gori stepped out of the small cave on top of the waterfall where it lives.


    mes can be seen dancing around its body and heading toward its open mouth, as soon as the bird came to the vicinity it let go of the me breath it was holding.


    The bird with its fast speed collided into the me, screeching out loud. Every primate held their breath to see if that made a significant damage but to their disappointment, lightning started dancing around the burning figure of the bird which made the fire gori step back and immediately climbed down the waterfall to rejoin the other goris.


    The lightning danced for a while around the bird before dispersing like a shock wave.If the fire gori had remained, it would have been affected.


    The lightning shockwave made the mes around the bird go away before slowly descending and perched on a tree near the waterfall, it looked down with fury in its eyes at the primates. Lightning once again started to flicker around it and with nobody able to react it swooped down and took a gori with it up to the sky.


    A scream, from low to high can be heard when the gori dropped down from the sky, stting everywhere, that caused panic to every primate around but the lead gori roared out loud causing everyone to quiet down and streams of rocks emerged from the ground merging to form an armor around its body.


    The lead gori then proceeds to do the same with a female gori that has for some reason been protected since the beginning of this attack. Not wanting to seem off, I joined the gori''s in the act of defending the territory.


    Slightly curious about what was special about the female primate, but that will hold off till this crisis is resolved.


    The lead gori created the same armor for the me gori before looking a bit tired. Roaring out loud once again, it gestured toward a huge cave near the waterfall signaling for all the primates to seek shelter.


    (Back to the bird)


    The bird now hovering in the sky watching the chaos it caused with glee in its eyes, a rock the size of a ball suddenly flew past it, surprising it. The bird looked down to see the figure of the armored lead gori with stones the size of a ball hovering around him.


    The lead gori hurled the stones at the bird, forcing it to dodge and weave to avoid them. But with a gesture of his hands, the dodged rocks follow the bird like a guided missile. The bird, now focusing solely on evading the rocks, paid less attention to the approaching me gori who rapidly leaped from tree to tree at fast speed closing in on it.


    Seeing what the me gori was doing, I summoned wooden spears to appear around me and then hurled them at the dodging bird. In response, the bird unleashed lightning towards the wooden spears, attempting to destroy them.


    It seeded in destroying the spears but the stones following behind now had a target to descend upon, the impact from the stone''s caused the bird to plummet down to the woods.
