“Let me go, you stub-tailed simians,” Stella screamed, her hands clenched around the neck of a mutant Barbary Macaque.
“Move back and let the human speak, ” Dr. Munroe said as he puffed his opium pipe. “I see you’ve met Alice. Stella, Alice – Alice, Stella…” He laughed so hard he nearly swallowed his opium pipe.
“Cut the crap, Doc. I could snap her neck with a twist of my wrist. I’ve got a debt to pay and it’s time to pay it. You’re coming back with me state-side,” said the 16-year-old adventurer, tightening her grip around Alice’s neck.
Munroe stroked his dirty beard again and took a long drag on his pipe. “It’s a fair fight, Stella Star. Agnes, clear the room. We’re gonna have a show!”
Stella looked up and Alice’s hairy fist met her chin with a solid monkey right-hook. The nearby gorillas beat their chests and watched as Stella wiped the blood from her lips.
“You damned monkey, ” Stella said, “you’re gonna pay for that!”
Alice slapped her with the back of her hand and dropped to all fours.
