Anything Is Possible

Practice and Forgetfulness

Aero's third POV

The four teens run into the throne room the see king T'Challa and Tony talking. They got their attention.

"We need to ask you guys something." Aero says.

"Hum... Yes? Is something wrong?", asked Tony.

"No, we were wondering I'd Shuri could come to the states with us." Peter says. The two billionaires looked at each other then turned to the teens.

"Is that what you want, sister?", asked the king.

"Yes! I've always wanted to visit America!", she said with excitement.

"And plus, she could tell you the actualities, how America works and reports on it!", added Hunter.

"I suppose that would work." That king said.

Shuri ran up to him and gave him a bear hug.

"Oh thank you, brother! Thank you so much! You won't regret this!"

"Why would I regret it?" The king asks. There was a silence. The 4 kids looked at each other.

"Hum... Byyyyyye! Love you brother!", she said and they started to run to their rooms. Once there, they looked at each others and burst out laughing.

"That was close!" Aero says, as she trips, "shit."

They all when by her.

"Are you ok?!"

She jumps up and dusts herself off.

"Yup! All good! I do this all the time!"

"Are you sure?"

"Mhm."

They start running again and end up in the training room.

"Hey, I didn't know you had a training room," said Peter.

"Yeah, thing is way bigger than the one at Stark tower." Aero said.

"Everything is bigger and better than Stark tower," said Shuri with a smirk.

"Obviously!" Aero said, "you're a freaking princess!"

"I... Don't really like the term princess. People think princesses are like, stupid blonde girls that needs to be saved all the time by a big strong men. Well guess what. I'm a genius black girl that can do everything on her own. I don't need to be saved, and certainly not by a men. That's right. Every cliché princess are straight. And I'm not. So yeah. I prefer the term, half-ruler," she said with a smirk but a pissed off voice.

"Yeah, Aero." Peter says.

Aero slaps his arm and Hunter laughed a bit.

"But damn girl!"

"Thank you for coming to my Ted talk," the half-ruler said laughing a bit.

"Should we train? We have like four hours before we leave." Aero said.

"I mean... I don't how to control my powers or whatever so... I don't know...," said Hunter.

"I could teach you! I've done this before, you know." Aero says.

"You would...?"

"Of course!"

"Thank you!", she said, running in her arms.

Aero hugs back.

"Just letting you know, I'm not the best teacher."

"I don't care at all," she said with a smile.

"Well, good," Aero says, pulling away, "'Cause I wasn't giving you a choice."

The girls laugh.

Peter stands there and smiles. He wanted things to go back to normal, for things to fix themselves while they sat back and watched. He wanted to take his girlfriend on a date. He wanted to stay up until three am playing video games with his sister. He wanted to burn family dinners with Aunt May and build Lego sets with Ned. He wanted his old life back. The life that he had before his uncle died.

Flashback

Ben walked to Peter's room and knocked on the door.

"Pete? Can I come in?"

Peter mumbled something, but it was muffled by something, like a pillow. Ben opened the door to see his nephew on his stomach, on his bed, with his face in a pillow. Ben smiled and sat on the bed next to the thirteen year old. He pats Peter's back.

"What's wrong?" He asks.

Peter turns his head to where the side of his face was on the pillow now.

"Aero called me her best friend today. So, now I'm going to sit in here until I die." Peter says, putting his face back in the pillow.

"Well, isn't she your best friend?" Ben asks, knowing where this was going.

Peter turns his head again so he can talk.

"But I want be more, Uncle Ben. I like her. Like, really, really like her." He says, sitting up.

"And you don't think she likes you back?" Ben asks.

"No way! She's way to cool for me."

"I thought that about your aunt, you know." Ben tells him, "I didn't think she liked me until she asked me out."

Ben chuckles at the memory of 15 year old May asking 16 year old him out on a date.

"I thought the guy asked the girl out." Peter says.

"Well, if she didn't, we wouldn't have gotten together. I guess what I'm trying to say is, take that chance. It could take you to amazing places."

Peter hugged Ben's torso.

"Thanks, Uncle Ben."

End of flashback

After Aero taught the base to Hunter, the girl could control a bit more her powers. It was still unstable, but at least she could defend herself now, if something happened.

Training was put to a stop when Tony walked in, yelling.

"What the hell are you doing?! Did you pack?! We're about to leave!" Tony shouts.

It became apparent to the teens that they had been training for the last four hours and they hadn't packed.

"Shit!" They all hissed at the same time, running in the direction of their rooms. They helped each other so that they could be faster and in a few minutes they were ready.

They ran back to the throne room, taking long leaps to get there quicker.

"Done!" They yelled when they saw Tony and the king.

"It was time! I promised your aunt and parents that you would be there before the sun goes down!", said Tony, gesturing to the sun that was just peaking over the hills.

"But it's sunrise." Aero said.

"Not there, idiot." Peter joked.

"Oh." Aero said, mentally face palming. The teens chuckled a bit.

"Come on, say thank you to T'Challa," he said, smirking.

"Thank you king T'Challa," said Hunter with a kind smile.

"Thanks, I guess." Aero shrugs, earning an elbow from Peter.

"She means thank you. We all do." Peter says.

"You are always welcome to Wakanda," he said with a smile.

"I'll see you soon brother," said Shuri, giving him a hug.

"Soon." The king replied, "Now be on your way!"

"Jet lag is going to kick. My. Ass." Aerk said as they walked away.
