That Robotic Soul (Wingfic) Book 2

Chapter 15 Wakanda Forever

Tony's Pov:

"You excited?" Sam asked.

"I've been to Wakanda before," I said.

"You have?" Sam asked.

"When I was really little...Howard took me on business." I said.

"Oh was that the crazy white man everyone talks about? T'Chaka wanted to just steal you from him." Sam said.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah, he said Howard did nothing but yell at you," Sam said.

"I don't remember much about that trip," I said and I saw T'Challa's fists clench...

"Something wrong pussycat?" I asked and Sam looked at T'Challa.

"You probably don't remember because Howard hit you in the head hard enough to draw blood," T'Challa growled lowly and Stephen's eye twitched.

"Probably a lot of shit I don't remember from him doing that," I said shrugging.

"It scares me how nonchalant about it you are," Sam said.

"What do you want me to do cry about it?" I asked and then bit my lip when Howard's voice rang in my ears "Stark men are made of Iron."

"Anthony?" I blinked and looked at Steph then noticed everyone looking at me worriedly.

"What?" I asked.

"I said it's probably better than repressing it," Sam said.

"You alright?" Stephen asked.

"Fine," I said and noticed them all looking at me still. "What, I just zoned out," I said.

"We're just worried," Steph said and I noticed Sam looking at my head...Ah worried about my head injury that's healed pretty much.

"I zoned out cause I was remembering something," I said.

"Do I want to know?" Steph asked.

"Stark Men are made of Iron," I said and I saw Stephen's eye darken...probably remembering...

"I don't know why but I don't like that saying," Sam said and I smiled.

"Yeah, you probably shouldn't," I said then winced when one of my wings tried relaxing.

"Keeping them tense like that is probably not good for them," Sam said.

"Yeah well...you guys wouldn't let me hide them so..." I said and the jet shifted...

"We're here...I called ahead and told them we were coming," T'Challa said.

"Great," I said because I'm sure I'm not going to enjoy this. We all got up and some people walked on, going right for our bags...

"Come on," T'Challa said and I frowned as my wings tried to tense more making me hiss. I paused right at the edge and watched T'Challa great his people...seriously there is way too many people here...I swallowed...

"Hey, you can do this," Sam said looking at me and I frowned.

"You don't know me very well," I said.

"I know you...Trust me," Sam said and I bit my lip. Stephen walked past us and I glared at him...What the hell? He was greeted warmly...Oh...so...I took a step forward and Sam grinned making me smile back. I followed Sam out and frowned when the people got quiet...Ah, bad idea! Abort! Abort mission!

"This is Tony," T'Challa said.

"Hello, Tony." She said and my brain connected the dots.

"Ramonda? Right?" I asked nervously...Don't show how scared you are...they can smell fear.
