Third Person POV
It was almost 2 .a.m. in Wakanda and the King and Queen were crouched in a tree branch observing the isolated hut in the middle of the jungle. Just under two weeks ago the Queen had subdued one of the extremists in the castle and despite the hard front he originally presented, the Queen had placed the fear of every god and goddess imaginable into his mind.
Between his interrogations and the information pulled from all of his belongings and devices the royal family was able to locate one of the hiding locations for the domestic terror network. So hear they are waiting for the perfect time to strike.
They have been waiting there for over and hour with the Dora warriors. Each person disguised amongst the flora. Princess Shuri even created a vibranium suit for the Queen.

They have counted ten people inside the compound with another 5 running security around the hut

They have counted ten people inside the compound with another 5 running security around the hut. After another few minutes the Queen signals the first of the Dora's to move in and remove the 5 outside. And let's be honest- has anyone ever seen a Dora be beaten? The "guards" were quickly subdued and tied up.
The king and queen cake down from the tree and moved their way towards the hut, the Dora's covering the other two exits.
With one more signal all of the doors were forced open and the inhabitants scrambled for their weapons. One man able to get 5 shots off at the king who's suit only absorbed the kinetic energy from the bullets. He was quickly rendered unconscious....

All in all they were able to capture all 10 extremists rather quickly, and while some of the Dora's escorted them to prison transport, the King and Queen stayed behind to begin downloading anything they could find in their computers. While looking through the data, Amara noticed a activated fail safe in the computer.
"We need to get out of here, this place is going to blow!"
"What do you mean?"
" I mean there's a fail safe in the computer to destroy not only the data, but the building as a whole! Transfer the information and let's get out of here!"
T'Challa inserted Shuri's skeleton key, a usb designed to copy and transmit all data from a server straight to her lab. Once the retrieval was done, T'Challa and Amara rushed out of the hut followed by the 3 Dora's who stayed behind with them. They weren't even ten feet away from the door before the building blew up.

Before the flames could touch anyone - Amara raised her hands and repelled the flames back

Before the flames could touch anyone - Amara raised her hands and repelled the flames back.
"Get clear! I'll cover you!"
T'Challa and the Dora made a quick escape through the trees back to the ship. Amara controlled the flames, gathering them all into a dome of heat and smothered it until it burnt out quickly.

Running back to the ship, Amara quickly bored the vessel as they were preparing for take-off.
"Your majesties, the prisoners have been secured back at the palace. General Okoye is awaiting your orders for the next step," one of the Dora reported.
"Tell her to begin interrogations immediately. And contact Shuri and Azeri, I would like and update on the twins please," Amara responded.

A hologram appeared in front of them as Shuri answered the call. "Hello sister, the suit continues to slay I see! Hello brother."
Amara couldn't help but laugh, as T'Challa deadpanned at his sisters greeting. "Would it kill you to show me some form of kindness or respect?"
Shuri cackled as she disregarded his question, " Anyway your babies are doing fine. They are swaddled up in bed awaiting their parents return. But here's what's interesting, I began sorting through the data the skeleton key transmitted. There is quite a lot of useful information- including who might be the leader of this radical faction. His name is Autry Assad, once a brilliant cadet at our military academy but dropped out and started sharing his disappointment with the royal family and tribe leaders publicly once proceedings began to open Wakanda up to the rest of the world. He protested against it, then again protesting a causing civil unrest when it was announced about your union. He suddenly went dark once the twins were born- no activity on any accounts whether financial or social. He's alive and well because my facial recognition has him placed all over the kingdom."
"Is there anything else you can tell us about him?" T'Challa questioned
"My Goddess what an impatient ruler you are! I've only had this data for 10 minutes, some might've even said thank you for even having this!"
Once again Amara was clutching her stomach from laughing so hard and she could see the Dora were also chuckling from the Princess's attitude toward her brother. Their relationship never ceased to bring others entertainment.
"Give me a few more hours and I'll get back to you with a more detailed report of my findings. In the meantime, come home and see your babies. You two still have a country to lead you know,"

Signing off the couple sat back as they made their way home with some hope finally setting in. They had information - they had a name! Hopefully they'll soon put an end to this threat.
