"Now then, You, Fleshy Hairless Alien Creatures..."
"Come with me now,
shall you."
...
"Oh okie dokie!" John chants happily and readily until Veronica shouts curiously and un-trustingly towards these new creatures.
"Why should we trust you??", Veronica yells cautiously towards the "could-be" foes.
"Because."...
"Your enemies are our enemies too..." says the Old Ape as he mysteriously does the "follow me" signal just like the young ape did.
"Ooo oo ooo ooo oo, oooo OOoGAloo?" one of the apes asks the Old Ape a concerning question in which he responds with, "don't worry about our visitors Chief RaAGaaDa, Their our Guests now for the meantime so treat them with full respect now. Okay?".
"oooo Oooooo...", The Chief Ape Responds as he puts his arms in a "hmph" gesture 🙄😤.
All the while the Old Ape, The Monkey Boy, and our Trio of "Hairless, Fleshy, Aliens" walk onto the middle land holding the tower that's within the cave and walk towards what seems to be a shiny new elevator almost resembling those old antique/vintage mineshaft elevators that you see in earth caves.
As The Old Ape and the Monkey Boy start to step onto the shiny tower elevator, John and Faith Step on as well But Veronica stays outside of the elevator still worried about the monkeys intentions...
"Cmon now... Don't Be Shy. The Elevator Don't Bite...", The Old Ape calmly, trying to gain her trust at least a little bit to get her on the elevator.
Then out of nowhere, The Monkey Boy Slaps on a strange black collar, (which the Old Ape has on too) with the not so rare Bronze Goldish metal and a flickering light plated to it and starts to rabble off of his Grandfathers Words,
"and to be honest we won't bite either, ... unless your an enemy and attack us of course... but besides that we're good with ya'll for real for real"
The Monkey then does a happy but not fully genuine, smiley grin, still cautious about their alien/human visitors.
Veronica then slowly but surely walks towards the tower and steps onto the elevator very carefully as she stumbles a little but of course once she fully steps on, the Old Ape presses the up button to the 2nd to top floor and proceeds to calmly stand as it flutters upwards while there's a 1960s-1970s looking speaker on the top of the moving contraption playing some live radio-type jungle/bongo and monkey hollering kinda music as they go up and the Old Ape starts tapping his foot and casually humming to the weird sounding monkey beat.
Then eventually, and finally they reach the top of the Great Tall, Goldish Bronze Tower.
"Oh My Tower! How I've missed you.", The Old Ape Chanted in a Relieved sounding voice.
"Bro, Gramps, ... you were only gone for like 2 seconds, chill out." "Yea okay, I guess ur right OooGaLaa, now How about you go talk to the young lad with the very colorful garments while I talk with the girl over there." The Old Ape Man Says in a soft, relaxed tone.
"Me??! Why me?!!" Veronica shouts in disbelief and weirded out ness.
"Because, I sense the most distrust in you, but at the exact same time, I also sense so much happiness, curiosity, and Joy Towards someone close to you being here with you, in the moment, in the here and now..."
"Wha-how... how did you know...?" Veronica asks, now overly curious but also scared to what the Old Ape Dude will say to her.
...
"Because, ... I can just see it."
"Wait what?? What do you mean by that?" Veronica asks again, still curious and somewhat frustrated a bit with the Ape Mans Answer.
"Well, I'm not sure if you knew, but you can tell a lot about a person just from their eyes, their appearance, and what their face is showing, by which I mean their emotions. And to be honest, the first person who taught me about all that "fun" emotion stuff is, well, let's just say their ...
