T hadn't come to bed that night. My intuition was right in not telling him right away. T suffered a huge loss yesterday and disappointed his closest friend. A council meeting would be held this morning. After breakfast I wore a nice dress and heels before I made my way down to the throne room. Romanda decided to join us today, in fact everyone was informed to join. I knew by the announcement that something serious was going on.

I walked into the throne room to see T'Challa
already sitting. His face was made of stone and when I smiled he didn't smile back. Something was bothering him badly.

" He will arrive momentarily my King ", W'kabi informed us.

Immediately Erik walked into the room and I gasped to see him in handcuffs. Putting two and two together I realized what had happened. He must have helped Klaw escape. To what extent..I didn't not know. Boarder tribe stood beside the door along with W'Kabi.

" It's practically a family reunion ", Erik smirked. His eyes rolled up and down my body. I felt my soul shake under his gaze. Now I understood why he made me so anxious. His aura was unnerving because...he was angry. He hid it in plain sight.

" You will speak when I ask questions ", T'Challa's body tensed up.

" U-Erik ngumngcatshi? ", asks an elder.

( Erik is a traitor? ..)

W'Kabi stands next to Killmonger acting as a translator.

" kuthetha", T demands .
(Speak)

" I'm standing in your house. Serving justice to a man who stole your vibranium and murdered your people. Justice your King couldn't deliver ", he confesses. T'Challa immediately stands up from his seat and storms towards Killmonger. I clutch my chest in anxiety.

He killed...Klaw ? I looked between W'Kabi and him.

" The only reason why I haven't killed you where you stand is because I know who you are and what you are. Now what do you want ? ", T stands chest to chest with him. Unfazed, Erik scoffs.

" I want the throne ", he shouts.

The elders laugh but he doesn't. In fact I could see his jaw clench when they started to chuckle like hyenas. I wanted so badly to snatch T up and fly away from his entire situation. Erik was unhinged, I could see it in his face. Humored but ready to strike.

" Y'all sittin' up here comfortable..must feel good. There's about 2 billion people all over the world that look like us but their lives are a lot harder. Wakanda has the tools to liberate them all ", Erik requested.

" And those would be ? ", T'Challa tests him.

" Vibranium. Your weapons ", he spits.

" Our weapons will not be used to wage war on the world. It is not our way to be judge jury and executioners for people who are not our own ", T scoffs. I felt so small when he said that. I was a welcomed outsider but I was the exception, just like Erik. Him and I shared a look.

" That's what they think of us Harp ", he chuckled darkly. He continues.

" Hm," Your own " but didn't life start here ? On this continent ? So ain't all people your people ? ", he tests T.
