In The Era of the Monuments and Lost Civilizations

Monkeys with LASERS! A plan for doom...And all hells' on earth: eating?

In The Era of Monuments and Lost Civilizations

There is one room: two hundred living bodies of living matter in this room; including plants of gigantic nature, monkeys that walk with weapons unseen by eyes that we possess, elephants that stand at guard with their huge blades that have been crafted by their very hands, a couple of stripped and shackled humans and a single bison of enormous proportions that sits atop a throne by them all. They don't respect nor admire this bison but rather look at him with contempt and this fictitous desire to behead him in front of his city just to watch the blood flow onto the grounds and parade about in it. Though they shall never...and they shall sit and wait for their trials into the affiars of the world to begin. This room is decorated of the best and grandest the world has to offer; purple shrines of their elder wisers and goveners; kings of the lost oddyseys and queens of compassion are depicted in majestic strokes of the genuis of artists. The walls and floor is made of ivory; this the elephants look at with disgust as they think of how many of their kind has been sacrificied for such decor. Within the sights of the plants are the misgiving monsters that walk and talk like nothing is wrong. These monkeys of perpetual complex nature. These elephants of undelevoped but felt wraith. Spite and vengeance bubble up within their heads and minds as they try to grasp their weapons tighter; try to hold in their rage. Though the suppression can withstand much, it can't last forever and they know it.

     A single monkey, playing with his lazer weapon walks up to one of these elephants. His mouth foams with this loathing and hunger for the flesh of the beast.

     "Stay away creature!" yells the bison lord from his throne. And the monkey retreats, still playing with his gun as though he plans on using it very soon. The bison turns away his attention from the miscreant and back upon his own mind is solid reflection upon the night that was and the decision put forth on him now. His sleepy, bushy, eyes lower as he goes deeper and deeper into what had happened and how to find some type of way to control these two factions before they hurt and kill. Without another moment's hesitation; possibly sprinkled with even more reproaches of arrogance and hate by the others, he stands above the entire crowd of monsterous beasts. "Let me first start off this by imploring you to listen to these words carefully, to not rush to any rash conclusions, and to see both sides of my argument before passing your final judgement on what I have to offer." A murmur of insubordination sweeps across the crowd. "Last night, as I'm sure all of you know, there was an attack on the foundation of the city of Alvist. Some of us were raped, murdered, beaten and even killed. They set fire to the park and sto away with our children. I bring you these murderous people now, today, in order to stand trial by us all. These three monsters that we have hung on irons in front of you all are guilty of the atrocities that I have spoken of and  yet...they did so out of a reason-"

     "What possibly reasoning could make you catch your tongue?!" Insinuated a monkey from the crowd. "They are murderers and evil doers and shall rot with the lot of their entire race!" This red eyed and sadistic monkey shouted. The crowd of other monkeys seemed to follow suit and voiced their own opinoins about this too. The bison was obviously upset by this but tried to remain calm, highered his paws and tried to settle down the enraged room. 

     "Please settle..." he stated aloud and let a quiet come over the room. Though some of the monkeys were already charging their lazer guns so they could rip apart the humans with their red lines of death. "Although I don't condone what they did by any means; We, as in our entire planet, has been put into a condundrum to which we must look upon these monsters for help. There, it seems, is a timeline of doom for our planet that is also on fault of not only these humans but of all humans. We have been destroyed by them by their sins and shall perish in rising temperatures and rising waters." At these words, the crowd reacted with mixed emotions. Some became estatic while others became scared and hopeless. Yet the bison king continued. "They have destroyed this paradise of ours friends...and I use that term lightly...yet it is now that we must band together as friends...as brothers in a fight to save this world."

     "But what can we do?! We're screwed! The world's going to end!!!" screamed a monkey, outraged and hectic. A close by elephant squandered this little fit by slicing the monkey down the middle of it's body killing him instantly. The rest of the furry monkeys watched in horror but were quickly readdressed by the bison king. 

     "Please remain calm everyone..." the crowd listened with contempt, with hatred, with spite in their souls for their suppressive leader. Elephants sharpened their swords. Monkeys lined up their sights. Humans smiled and swung from the shackles. "We will have these humans solve this problem. They will fix everything."

     "Like the movies?"

     "Brad Pitt will save us! I know he will."

     "Yeah, he likes animals."

     "No you fools!" cried the bison leader. He held his huge paw to his head, withdrawn from the crowd that didn't listen and aggravated by the ways that they chose to go about their saviors.  "The actors will not save us. We must look to their smartest citizens for they hold the keys to saving this planet more than the actors-"

     "The Wal-Mart guy! He's a genuis!"

     "Yeah, we should get him."

     "Anyone who makes that kind of money has gotta be a genuis."

     "Silence!" the bison king roared settling the crowd once again. Though they listened and heard his roar, their hate and not fear was building up within each and everyone of their tiny skulls. Even the elephants could feel their hate for their leader. "We do not look to entrepenaurs for salvation here! There are smart people out there that have some ideas..." but his voice was lost within the crowd as a single monkey began to formulate a plot and plan to overthrow their leader.

     In the back, he gathered them by promising hope, by giving them jewels and diamonds, by showing them how he would save the world with a simple plan. "But first," he would say in silent whispers among the many who listened, "we must take out this fool." And they would listen, they would move where he told them to move, silently stalking towards the elephant guards and making their way to the bison. They knew their lazers weren't the best weapons against such huge monsters but they had no choice.

     "...and if we go to these men of genuis, we can try to find some sympathy within their hearts so that they may find the ways and tools to save this great planet of ours. There are smart men out there who just need to be found..."

     One by one the elephants were being silently killed. Their throats would be slit open by a monkey who would crawl upon the standing beast, creep right up behind its head and slice them once. The bison saw this...but kept talking trying to find reason within their minds and not theirs. But the monkeys refused to listen to their old and senile leader who's scruffy hair grew white and old before their eyes, whos speach was interrupted by coughs and who's eyes could barely see the many monkeys that climbed the huge portraits and monumnets along the walls and ceilings so that they could secure a spot behind the bison.

      They walked behind him, slowly and without remorse, without pity, without thought. The only thing in their minds, in their sights, was the ultimate death of this foolish old bison. And the plants wilted within the room in antipiation of what was to come as the humans hung there, their languid eyes watching in entertainment the happenings of this strange animal society, until a couple monkeys ripped their claws and teeth into their pale flesh. Till finally, as the violence escalated and the monkeys finished off their prey by eating each and every one of the bodies; the bison king was struck down by this new leader of theirs. He stood before the huge hall not an inch taller than any of them in the crowd nor an inch shorter. The four monkeys who followed him to the thrown gourged themselves on their deceased bison leader as the leader stood upon it's carcass, raised his hands in the air only to beat them on his chest and scream in a violent roar of victory.

An entertaining and quite amusing piece. The brad pitt thing especially was a laugh. This sounds like something that could happen if human life ever came to an end. Scary thought. Great story!
