It was a new day in Wakanda and Riri was in the lab observing the damages to her suit, prior to the battle that had happened just a day ago.
"Hm, not as bad as I thought," Riri thought. She continued to observe suit, very impressed with the work she did.
"Yo," She looked behind her to see none other than the royal panther herself. As Shuri approached her, Riri began to get a little giddy on the inside. Shuri on the other hand, had rapid butterflies going off in her stomach just from being in the same room as the scientist.
"All set to head home?" Shuri asked. When in reality, Shuri wanted Riri to stay with her in Wakanda. She didn't want her to leave but she knew she had a life of her own back in the US.
"As long as you're sure the police won't be waiting for me at the airport," Riri replied. Shuri chuckled at this statement but Riri was serious. She did not want to return to the states just to go to prison.
"Don't worry, that's been taken care of," Shuri assured her. Of course she wouldn't be in a cell for long anyway even if they were there. She would have her out the same day she got out.
"But you might wanna slow down on your homework," Shuri joked. Riri felt a little heat rush to her cheeks.
"You said you wanted to talk to me?" Riri questioned.
"Yes," Shuri said, "Your suit, it is an amazing design but I cannot let it leave Wakanda."
Riri just nodded, "That's ok, the least I can do is help Wakanda clean up my mess."
"There is something I wanted to show you," Shuri said.
They walked over to a car with a tarp on top of it. Once she pulled the tarp off, Riri's eyes lit up in shock
"It took me a while to find every part from the river but it was worth it," Shuri said, watching as Riri observed the car.
"It's my dad's car," Riri said, feeling tears forming in her eyes, "We use to work on it before he-" "I may not have known how important the car was to you at first but I felt responsible on having to give it back to you," Shuri cut her off.
Riri lifted up the hood and began to observe. "You sure this is every part?" Shuri observed her toned stomach in her orange two-piece. "Damn," She thought.
"Every last one, I'll have it shipped to Boston before you arrive," The Princess answered.
Riri closed the hood and held her arms out for a hug. "Bring it in!" The Princess wrapped her arms over her firmly, both of them feeling a slight spark between each other.
"Panther, Ms. Williams' transport has arrived," they pulled apart at the sound of Shuri's AI, Griot.
Shuri let out a breath. "Look after yourself," She told Riri.
"You sure ain't tryna slide to Chicago?" "Catch a Bulls game?" Riri asked, hoping the Royal wouldn't reject her request.
Shuri showed a soft smile on her face. "I'll definitely take you up on that Ms. Williams but I have something I need to take care of first."
