WANDA MAINTAINED her tight hold on the arm of her seat as she looked out the window of the quinjet, looking around at the many large buildings that she could see as they approached the landing pad.

Carson peeled his eyes away from the book he was reading, that was mainly to distract him, and turned his head to the side to look at Wanda, frowning when he took note of her demeanour.

"Everyone ready?" Steve looked around at them all as he stood up from his seat. "Sam, open it up."

Sam nodded and flipped a few switches on the control panel to power down the jet before pressing a button that opened the door.

Carson moved his hand down onto Wanda's thigh. The contact pulled her from her stare with the window and she looked over at him, giving him a small smile as she met his eyes.

"Hi." She said quietly.

"Hi witchy." He gave her thigh a small squeeze. "It's time to go, you okay?"

"I'm fine dorogoy." Wanda nodded and gave him a quick peck before standing up. "I'm just a little nervous, that's all. I don't like walking into something that's outcome is uncertain."

Carson got up and placed his hand on her cheek. "I know love, I know." He sighed. "But this will be over soon, alright? Then we can fly back to Edinburgh okay? I promise you."

Wanda leant into his touch and rolled her head back slightly so she could look up at him. "And for that, I can't wait."

He smiled and intertwined their hands, lowering them down to their side. "Come on, let's go."

The two of them followed behind the rest of the team, watching as Steve and Natasha approached T'Challa. Steve gave the man a nod and shook his hand.

"Seems like I'm always thanking you for something." The super-soldier said.

Bruce looked over his shoulder at Carson and Sam. "Should we bow?"

Sam and Carson both shared a look, smirking a little as it seemed they both had the same idea in their head.

"Oh definitely." Sam nodded.

"Yeah man, he's a king, you gotta have some manners." Carson added.

Bruce nodded and turned back to T'Challa, clearing his throat to grab the mans attention as he started to bow. T'Challa's brows stitched together in confusion and he lifted up his hand to interrupt the scientist's action.

"What are you doing?" Rhodey looked down at Bruce.

"Uh, we don't do that here." T'Challa informed him.

Bruce stood up straight and looked back over at Sam, Carson and Wanda, glaring at them as they all chuckled to themselves.

"So," T'Challa began as he started to lead everyone towards the building. "How big of an assault should we expect?"

"Uh, sir, I think you should expect quite a big assault." Bruce told him from behind.

"How we looking?" Natasha asked.

"You will have my Kingsguard, the Border Tribe, the Dora Milaje and..." The Wakandan king pointed towards a man that was walking towards them.

Bucky.

"And a semi-stable one hundred year old man." Bucky quipped as he walked towards them all.

Steve smiled at his best friend and instantly pulled him into a hug. "How you been, Buck?"
