Autumn POV


As I slowly awoke from my very short slumber I became aware I was no longer in the forest, The smells were different, the sounds,

The air seemed thicker, my eyelids flew open, glowing, I know this due to the infer red like reptiles vision I guess,

I was still being carried, T'Challa he was carrying me I could tell by the smell,

You see people, animals every being on this earth has a smell as far as I can tell,

Mommy she smelled of Wild Lilly's and fresh rain,

The leopard smelled like fresh apples and cinnamon,

T'Challa he smells of Pine from the forest, and a hint of spice maybe cinnamon or maybe it's something close to it,

That's enough of of the education of my nose,

I was looking over his shoulder where my head laid, hallways different from the palace, I don't smell Shuri

She smells like Vanilla mixed with coconut,

Where am I? I thought as I grew anxious and nervous at the same time,

And that's well that's not good, not one bit,

Next thing I know I'm sitting on a table,

T'Challa looked at me concerned

"Autumn it is alright breathe," He said in a relaxing tone,

But my chest rose and fell at a rapid pace, I didn't know where I was, He left me, and now he took me away from the forest,

All the unfamiliarity in this situation and wherever I was, it was becoming all too overwhelming, I felt like my airways were becoming constricted,

I couldn't breathe,

And I started to panic and when I start to panic well lets just say I transform into something that can protect me, any kind of animal,

I felt myself transform and climbed up into the raters of the room,

I felt myself transform and climbed up into the raters of the room,

"Autumn get down from there!" T'Challa yelled in a worried tone,

But I didn't move,

I don't like it here, I want to go home, where I belong in the forest, where Mr Leopard is, I know he made it because I heard T'Challa and the odd man talking about it before I lost conciseness,

"What's with the-" Tony came walking him,

I remember him because he smells like blueberries,

"Umm, Why is there a red Panda in the rafters of my lab?" Tony asked,

"That's Autumn," T'Challa said concerned

"Oh the little minx is here then," Tony said

T'Challa nodded as he looked up at me,

"But she is acting rather odd," T'Challa said

My nose twitched as I was bear hugging one of the rafters,

"Autumn please come down," T'Challa asked,

My nose twitched again, and decided against it,

"She doesn't seem like she's buying the please," Tony said looking up at me with his hands on his hips,

"Indeed," T'Challa said

"How about this," Tony said opening a package that was on a desk,

It smelled like chocolate and it had cream in the middle,

"Oh Autumn would you like a Oreo Cookie?" He said smiling

"That's not going to-" T'Challa began,

As soon as Tony said cookie I was sold,

I scurried down the rafter onto the table taking the cookie,

"You were saying," Tony said smirking,

"Now Autumn I need you to turn back human so I can take a look at your boo, boo's" Tony said in a kind voice,

I think he means my hands and knees,

"Where is mr Banner?" T'Challa asked

"Following a lead with Nat," Tony said

I finally turned back, where he grabbed a blanket and wrapped it around me,

He took my hand lightly looking at how cut up it was,

"Well these need to be cleaned but you'll be good as new," He said smiling at me,
