Heading for Home
Akilah held the paper in her hands, flabbergasted by the news it brought. She was being summoned back to Wakanda to attend a trial against her mother. Apparently, Ororo Munroe had attacked the Wakandan capitol relentlessly for almos two hours, destroying much of the city and killing many innocents. She couldn't believe it. She absolutely could not believe it. However, Akilah knew she had to return home as quickly as possible. She immediatly started gathering clothes and supplies for the trip home. She also intended on telling her teammates that she was leaving for awhile. However, she was not one to strike up conversation so easily. Akilah made it apparent that she was going somewhere by gathering her things at the door.

"Just a few more things to check," she muttered as she slid her things to the wall.

	She hesitated, not wanting to give off a sigh. But she ended up sighing anyway. The thought of the situation made her uncomfortable. "It appears that Mother has attacked and destroyed much of the Wakandan capitol city. She is to be put on trial, and I must be there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What." His expression changes. He has not met her mother but he KNOWS her reputation. Who doesn't? "It can't be true. She's an honorable and noble woman. Do you need us to go with you? I.... I'll do whatever I can to help you. You don't have to go alone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I know it is not true," Akilah replied. She had been thinking about it a lot. "But that is not what the people of Wakanda saw. They saw their Queen cast lightning on their homes. They saw their Queen call the winds together to swallow them into Death's grasp."

She paused and bit her lip, unsure of what to say next. She couldn't turn him down. It was Daniel. How could she tell him to stay back while she went away into that kind of situation?

"...Then come with me, Daniel. And... I supposed the others may come. But no one must speak their minds about the situation while we are there. I do not want to aggravate the situation, and the Avengers tend to be loose-lipped."

And if anything Daniel knows how to stay tight lipped. He knows when nothing he says can do anything.

He nods. "I'll assemble the team. You can make it clear to them that speaking out in Wakanda will not help matters."

Then he gets this embarrass look on his face. "Will I be a problem? I mean. I'm white and I'm dating you. I don't want people to use that as an excuse to ignore what you have to say."

	It was a serious situation. Almost too serious, and Akilah had been very uncomfortable. Until Daniel asked that question. She couldn't help but laugh a little. "No, Daniel," she replied, "You will not be a problem because you are white. How often have you been talking with Charlie?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	weavingwizard 2010-04-30 06:22 pm UTC (link)
	"Not often? Charlie is a cool guy and all but..." He takes his glasses off to polish them and pushes them back on. "We just don't talk that much. I'll assemble the team, Akilah." And he activates his comm. "Avengers! We have a situation! Meet Akilah and I in the lounge as soon as possible." After he is done saying that he bows and offers her his arm. "M'lady."

	James had been in the kitchen scarfing down freshly made chocolate chip cookies when the call came. He grabbed a handful and went running toward the lounge. "What's up?" he asked as he rushed into the room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Steve had been in the gym when the call went out. One five minute shower later and he was meeting the others. "What's going on?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-05-01 05:00 pm UTC (link)
	She smiled and takes his offered arm. That's when two of the Avengers make their way to Daniel and Akilah. "I am leaving for Wakanda," she announced, "To attend a trial against my Mother for attacking Wakanda's capitol city." She gave them the explanation, if they planned on attending.

	"When do we leave?" James asked. Avengers always stuck together and if Storm was attacking Wakanda, something was definitely not right. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	weavingwizard 2010-05-02 07:17 am UTC (link)
	"When Akilah is ready," Daniel replies. "I can gather up a few supplies quickly. I don't need much." He does intend to make sure to leave a message at home. He and his father have been working on staying in closer contact. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	swashbuckler 2010-05-02 04:08 pm UTC (link)
	Steve nodded. "Just need a minute to grab my gear and leave a couple messages for people," he said, "and I can go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	next_avenger 2010-05-02 05:42 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm going to go put my uniform on and be right back," James said and then ran out of the room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-05-02 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	Akilah nodded to each of them, and then to Daniel. She didn't really have anything to say until each of them got back. All her things, she was sure, were packed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It didn't take James long to change and grab his shield generator. "I'm ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	swashbuckler 2010-05-04 09:07 pm UTC (link)
	Steve returned moments later himself, a full quiver of arrows and extras packed as well. "All set." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Daniel is back in uniform with a stave carved with various runes and protections. The young wizard had a bag with him too that held a few different books and some potions. He wanted to be ready. A simple cleaning spell would be cast on his clothes as needed. "Ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aerosmithette 2010-05-06 05:42 pm UTC (link)
	Akilah opted for quick travel, and she detailed some things for the group coming with her on the mission. Her mother was facing the death penalty, being the biggest thing. She truly believed her mother was framed. (Reply to this)(Parent)
