The Royal Asgardian

Chapter 63

In an SUV T'Challa sits in front of Steve who sits in front of Sam.

Sam Breaks the silence "So, you like cats?"

Steve Kind of done says "Sam."

Sam "What? Dude shows up dressed like a cat and you don't wanna know more?"

Steve Looks at T'Challa "Your suit... it's Vibranium?"

T'Challes eyes narrow as he glances sideways. "The Black Panther has been the protector of Wakanda for generations. A mantle, passed from warrior to warrior. And now, because your friend murdered my father, I also wear the mantle of king. So, I ask you... as both warrior and king... how long do you think you can keep your friend safe from me?"

Steve is stony faced as the convoy heads underground.

In a light gray walled bunker Bucky's pod is carried away by a forklift. And Avinna in hers with his.

Nearby Steve gets out of the SUV and glances across at Bucky who doesn't spot him. With Sam and T'Challa Steve approaches Sharon who's standing with a diminutive, gray-head man.

Steve Looks at the pods "What's gonna happen to him? Where are you taking them?"

Everett Looks to steve "Same thing that ought to happen to you. Psychological evaluation and extradition."

Sharon Salks up to steve "This is Everett Ross, Deputy Task Force Commander."

Steve Stares Down Everett. "What about our lawyer?"

Everett Lets Out a little laugh "Lawyer. That's funny. See their weapons are placed in lockup. Oh, we'll write you a receipt."

Sam Upset "I better not look out the window and see anybody flying around in that."

As they go Steve looks back and catches Bucky's eye.

On a covered skywalk.

Everett Starts talking "You'll be provided with an office instead of a cell. Now, do me a favour, stay in it?"

T'Challa Folds his arms. "I don't intend on going anywhere."

Natasha walk in with tony on the phone " For the record, this is what making things worse looks like." She speaks.

Steve Looks Down "He's alive."

Tony  "No. Romania was not Accords-sanctioned. And, Colonel Rhodes is supervising cleanup."

Natasha Buts in "Try not to break anything while we fix this."

Tony on the phone. "Consequences? You bet there'll be consequences. Obviously you can quote me on that 'cause I just said it. Anything else? Thank you, sir."

Steve Looks up at Tony "Consequences'?"

Tony Pinches the bridge of his nose. "Secretary Ross wants you three prosecuted. Had to give him something."

Steve Looks Out the glass window "I'm not getting that shield back, am I?"

Natasha Shakes her head "Technically, it's the government's property. Wings, too."

Sam "That's cold."

Tony Does a condescending voice "Warmer than jail."

"When did you create the knock out dart for Avinna?" Steve looks to Tony.

"A while back... just Incase she lokied us again." Tony turned away from Steve.

"Why did James have it then?" Steve Stands up.

"I told him use it if they can't contain her." Tony faces him head on.

"Enough!" Natasha raises her voice. "Avinna and Bucky have been placed in a secure room."
