I walked out onto the cliff where T'Challa sat looking out onto the Wakanda land. "Beautiful," I said he turned to look at me. I lowered myself to sit next to him. "What happened?" I asked looking at his face. He looked at me before looking out onto the landscape once more.
"He killed his own brother," I looked at him "and left a child behind, with nothing, what kind of king," He shook his head "What kind of man does that?" He asked though I believe the question was more toward himself.
"No man is perfect," I say "Not even your father," I say
"He didn't even give him a proper burial," He looked at me "My uncle N'Jobu betrayed us, but my father..." He paused "he may have created something even worse," I frown
"I understand, othandekayo, trust me I do," I say frowning think back 10 years to the story of my uncle and cousin. "Look at me," He hesitates but looks at me, I place my palm onto his cheek "Don't let your father's mistakes define who you are, you get to decide the kind of king you want to be," I tell him he leans into my touch "I am sorry, I know you need time to process this," I saw after a few seconds he opens his eyes seeing the worry itched on my face.
"What has happened," He asks
"A man, he showed up at the border claiming to of killed Klaue. W'Kabi is bringing him to the palace," He stood offering me his hand which I took.

"Erik Stevens, graduated Annapolis aged 19, MIT for grads school. Joined the SEALs and went straight to Afghanistan where he wrapped up confirmed kills, like it was a video game," I watched T'Challa's face tense up more, I grabbed his hand rubbing soft circles into the skin continuing to listen to Ross speak. "Started calling him Killmonger. He joined a JSOC ghost unit. Now, these guys are serious. They will drop off the grid so they can commit assassinations and take down governments," Ross finished T'Challa drops my hand walking forward
"Did he reveal anything about his identity?"
"He has a War Dog tattoo but we have no record of him," T'Challa looked at me "Call your siblings, tell them to be on the watch," I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion "We don't know why he's here, tell them to watch Zoya," I nodded walking away to call my brother.
