Chapter Eleven

It was a travesty. Chaka couldn’t believe it and was appalled. How could the young Hubra be treated as nothing more than animals. Abandoned to take care of themselves in a field. The primals of the future were beasts and inhubran.

He followed the sounds and music and walked outside the metal guarding and wall that surrounded the community of the Primals. It had to be a very advanced but they were vicious. Chaka was glad he challenged them. He knew he’d have a price to pay in the dark, dangerous, upside down world, but after seeing the offspring, his heart broke.

Dozens of young. Ranging from babies to only knee high. Scattered about a field, dining on raw animals, not even heated. They weren’t clothed. It appeared as if the primals didn’t care and tossed them aside. The nesting needed tended or the Hubra would be wild, like any primal.

The young Hubra scattered at first when he arrived. It was dark. They had to be frightened. He stood center of the field and then slowly gathered them to him. They had to be hungry, thirsty. He wanted to light a fire but feared they’d dive into it.

He looked at their sad faces and how different they looked. Almost as if they weren’t evolved. But that wasn’t possible, since he was in the future. They probably reversed.

The first of the young Hubra nestled against his leg and, the warrior in him crumbled. He reached down and lifted the child, nestling him close to his chest.

Chaka wanted to hold them all, but his arms weren’t big enough.

He was angry at the Primals for treating his fellow Hubra like this. Though on a mission to find his pet, Chaka decided to pause and take care of the young.

He caught the scent of an animal not far before, he’d hunt that easily and prepare a meal for them. He couldn’t with a clear conscious leave them alone.
