First Mission
???: "WOOHOO!!!"
A frat boy screams out as they jump into the pool of their yacht with all the other men and women who were wearing only swimsuits and maybe some colorful shirts and, of course, all their jewelry, sunglasses, and party caps.
Inside this mix of all kinds of partygoers was Jake, seeming to have the time of his life as he was relaxing at the bar wearing a very vacation-like outfit, as he was wearing a black and white floral pattern shirt that was completely open, some cargo pant shorts, and some black sandals.
Frat boy 1: "Yo BRO, you see my awesome cannonball!?"
Frat boy 2: "Nah, bra. I was too busy ording me some Me Ties and getting ma tan on, bra."
The two frat boys then chest bump one another as they both scream and then stab a can of beer and begin chugging from the sides as the girls either try to pretend not to be interested as they secretly watch the boys, or they truly don't care and are just enjoying themselves.
As everyone partied as they liked on the stationary yacht, Jake walked off the boat and into the Wakanda service yard, where many of the Wakanda's people served these white boys of the most elite families to the best of their abilities while said kids didn't even seem to care about them or their help.
While walking through the place, Jake makes sure to party it up and, even more importantly, frat it up as he tries his best to pretend to be like all the other guys with him, even staring down some attractive older women in the same manner as those two frat bros from before.
Jake's thoughts: "Thank the lord almighty that no one I know is ever going to see this!"
It didn't take long before Jake left the little party zone as he pretended he needed to take a leak by actually needing to go, and he quickly took a piss before making his way through the giant forest as he stumbled into the lush vegetation and changed from his party mode to his work mode as he covered his body in the black symbiote.
Quickly moving through the place Jake remembers about a week ago when Fury and Coulson were giving out missions and that no one knew what their missions were, as they were told to keep them secret along with where they were going.
-Going back a week ago-
Nick Fury: "(Sitting on a very cheap foldable metal chair that he somehow makes look intimidating as he sits with one leg over the other.) So... you think you're ready to go on your very first op?"
Jake: "(Sits up straight as he tries his best not to show just how nervous he truly is) Yes sir, I... I think I'm ready to go on my first mission."
Nick Fury: "(Gets up and turns around as he just ever so slightly smiles) Good, well, I got a job that's just about perfect for you."
Without even turning around, Nick Fury grabs a file he was carrying freaking somewhere and throws it right into Jake's lap, and the very second he opens it, he sees a picture of the Wakandan flag along with a picture of its current acting leader, the prince of Wakanda, T'Challa.
Nick Fury: "Recently we've gotten intel that our oh so called poor nation brothers have recently been seen with weapons they shouldn't be having."
Jake flips through the documents and sees a drone picture of some Wakandan people being able to fire off bursts of kinetic energy out towards some targets, then a picture of others blocking it with some cape-looking thing, and then the third was a very close shot of the purple energy.
Nick Fury: "Your mission is to figure out just what is going on, how many weapons they have, and what they might be planning with them. I Implore you (grips his hands together so hard you could hear the lather move), do not get caught, as this is a recon mission, and we don't want to start pointless wars."
Jake: "(Stands up so fast he knocks down his own cheap foldable metal chair and the file that was resting on his lap) Don't worry, sir, I won't let you down!"
-Back to present day-
Female Wakandan soldier 1: "Intruder! We must take him down to stop him from sharing our secrets!"
Jake's thoughts: "(Narrowly dodges a blast of energy) I haven't even found anything other than the obvious weapons of destruction you're trying to blast me with!"
As Jake kept dodging their attacks, he didn't realize they were leading him towards a steep and narrow mountainside where there seemed to be a more primitive form of Mount Rushmore but more advanced than hieroglyphics, as the wall seemed to be covered in what could only be guessed to be all the past kinds with what they were most known for.
But really that's just a guess, as who would ever make a carving of some random Billy Jo Bob that caught the biggest fish of them all or something like that, but considering how they didn't really mind blasting it to smithereens, this place was either bull crap or, for some reason, they didn't care about preserving their history... or maybe they were going to place all the blame on Jake.
No matter the answer, none of it meant anything good for Jake, especially since he had already failed the most important part of his mission, which was to not be found, and got immediately found out as he was unlucky enough to rush past two female Wakandan guards.
Being forced against the rock wall, Jake was forced to accept his defeat as he was blasted six ways to Sunday and then was left for dead; after making sure he was dead, the female Wakandan warriors stabbed him repeatedly just to be very sure before they finally left.
Meanwhile, all the way back at the party boat, Jake was watching it all go down as he flinched in pain over just how much pain his symbiote double was going through, or rather, Ekaj was seeing how much pain Jake was going through before remerging with himself.
Ekaj: "So... how'd it feel getting dominated by some very aggressive Dommy Mommies?"
Some black butterflies start landing on Jake's body as they quickly become white and then disappear into particles that just as quickly get reabsorbed into Jake's body.
Jake: "It freaking sucked! They didn't give me a chance to say or even do anything; heck, they honestly had no idea if I was just some random scuba driver or not."
Jake spins around and downs his drink of something most likely alcoholic, considering they were sitting inside the deck lounge bar and he started making his way towards the top as he took a hit of something one of his dude bros had given him as he passed them by.
Jake: "I know I gave you complete control over my body, as you fit the best description of all these frat bro's and dorm gals, or whatever they want to be called, but seriously?"
Ekaj: "Relax (takes a very long puff before giving it to someone else). It's not like they can affect us, especially when you're back inside me (smirks and laughs at his own joke)."
Jake rolled his eyes even if he didn't really have any eyes to roll as Ekaj walked towards the top of the diving board at the top of the deck and proceeded to run and do a mega cannonball that splashed everyone around and some people who were unlucky enough to be near the side of the ship.
As Ekaj dived through the air Jake left the body one more and turned into a dove as he flies through the air cursing the entire time as he did about why he had to constantly move his arms, thankfully he didn't have to fly that much longer as he made his way towards his old symbiote body and merged it with himself as he formed back into himself.
Jake: "I swear I hope I don't meat anyone else as I'm already tired and my mission just started."
Hearing a snake slithering towards him Jake lets the thing bite him as it gets eaten instead giving Jake a new animal form to turn into along with being able to secret venom as he pleased.
Walking through the forest Jake eventually stumbles across a group of Wakandan's that seemed to be walking through a very much solid wall and when they all walked inside Jake tried to walk through the same wall only for it to fail as he ran straight into the stone wall.
Looking around Jake realized they either had some sort of matter shifting device or maybe there was a locked door behind the hologram mountain but either way Jake was just screwed since there was no way for him to pass this current hurdle.
Moving towards the trees Jake quickly climbs as his current body doesn't really need to move like a normal person as he turns into a dove and rests on the tree branch and waits for it to open.
Four days later is when these freaking self-centered tools finally passed through the mountain and from the looks of it, it seemed like all of Wakanda was in on serving rich guests to possibly make them seem even worse off than they truly were.
Not desiring to wait for however long it'd take them to open it up once more Jake quickly dashes towards the mountain and was thankful that his second guess was right as he barely managed to pass through the doors as two Wakandan soldiers closed the giant door.
Jake quickly flies up and sticks himself to the ceiling as he turns into a giant blob creature who slithers his way past everything and quickly discovers that A) Wakanda was far from being a poor third world country and B) They are preparing for WAR!
That's the only answer that Jake could make as he took a peek towards the vastness that was the true Wakanda Paradise as it was full of people flying on mecha beast while on the ground people were one with said beasts as they all seemed to live in harmony.
Moving through the place Jake finds a room full of gadgets, mainly the spears that he was being blasted with before and some cloth that looked similar to the one from the picture... it's just that each other them were slightly different.
Slowly slithering his way off the ceiling Jake turns back into his human form and is tempted to grab the items but doesn't in fear of them possibly being boobytrapped and is instead amazed by the duel tipped spear, a cape big enough to cover his entire shoulder but that wasn't even the best of it.
As in the center of the room was some animal looking suit that kind of looked like a fierce lion as that's what was on the chest and the head along with it having golden claws on its hands and feet with some bits of black fur delicately placed around the armor for both looks and function.
Right next to the armor stand was a bunch of random things along with a file that was written either in code or whatever the native Wakandan language might have been as Jake could not understand a single thing it was saying other than it having an X next to something big or fat and a giant circle of it being in the air?
It was really just guessing working as the X had the lion arm getting crushed by something while the O had diagonal lines along with maybe some clouds in the background.
Quickly turning purple so as to make a phone so he could take a picture and video of everything he's seen from his short stay in this very secured lab room? War room? Some place that is stocked in case they need to quickly go to war.
But... whenever you go somewhere you must always get something to bring back home with you right? For Jake that meant quickly grabbing the spear, cape, and lion armor with his stretch symbiote webby arms and quickly absorbed them into himself as the place suddenly changed in tone.
There weren't any alarms, but Jake got this feeling like they already knew what was going on and after suddenly growing like something in him blew up as the tip of one of the spear heads, large chunk of the cape, and one of the gauntlets were forcibly shoot out of Jake's body.
Jake's thoughts: "Ah, crap I knew these things had some form of alarm!"
Jake jumps onto the ceiling once more like spiderman as he slithers his way back outside and waits only a minute this time as the doors were quickly opened and he then made his escape as he quickly turns yellow and become the snake he consumed before and slithers his way past everyone as he pretends to be stepped to death.
Once he believes no one was looking at him anymore Jake turns into a dove and flies all the way back to ship and fuses with Ekaj again as he regains control of his body and since this was a three month gig that he's finished in about two weeks Jake just sits back, relaxes and tries his best to forget all about a certain angry woman in his life.
Ekaj: "(Appears in front of Jake) Hey, forget about her, you have literally three more women waiting for you who don't hate you and even if you no longer want any of them (teleports in front of the group of college women) All these ladies are defiantly into you."
Jake: "You can't know that as you're me and I have no way of knowing how any of them feel."
Ekaj: "Yeah, well I do since I've been the one partying it up all this time and of all the women here, one Miss Walters, or more common to her friends Jennifer or just Jenn has been eyes me/ you every chance she could get."
Jake just rolls his eyes as he throws off the mostly black with a giant white skull on the back shirt that Ekaj somehow got a hold of as it wasn't made from the symbiote since Jake had control of it and jumps onto a lawn chair and relaxes as he reads a book, he found next to him.
Meanwhile, back deep within the confines of Wakanda, the prince and current Black Panther, as all royal heirs must, showed their might before their crowning ceremony to show proof of their commitment. He was trying his best to hold back his anger over someone stealing three prototypes that took years to stabilize and not destroy themselves or the users.
T'Challa: "Tell me... how did our most elite guards somehow fail to notice a trespasser that had taken three of the newest ceremonial items for my future coronation?"
Every newly crowned king has the ceremonial items handcrafted and improved for the next future king, and T'Challa is someone who is braver than most, the fiercest of all kings who never hesitated in battle but was someone who'd give up his own happiness for the sake of his country.
These were represented in the armor, two-pronged spear, and a shoulder cape large enough to cover half his body, almost as if he's constantly getting hugged by his loved ones as he remembers the importance of what it means to be king.
T'Challa is obviously very angry at what just happened, but he takes a deep breath, as he can't fault any of them if the thief could teleport like his most hated enemy, the one man who had gotten away and the reason why his coronation had to be sped up to his twenty-first birthday instead of his thirtieth like all the kings before him.
Storming outside the building, T'Challa puts on a happy face as he smiles and waves at all his subjects, including the beasts that only those who have passed the trial of Bast and have gained the right to use have the power of the panther.
Storming into the royal palace, T'Challa walks past the throne and just stares at the giant Vibranium deposit Ptah had given his ancestors, as only Wakandan people can safely shape Vibranium, as any other attempts made by others cause nothing but pain, like the Claw experienced firsthand.
???: "My son... what troubles you so?"
T'Challa turns around and sees the closest consort to his father that he viewed as a mother, as his own mother had long since ventured into the lands of the ancestors.
T'Challa: "(Sighs) I just cannot understand why others try and harm us when all we have done is strive for peace."
Anuki: "My son, you should know better than most that man's heart, no matter the tribe, color, or even gender, is one filled with turmoil. But what I do know is that all walks of life strive to do what is best for them and their kin. Just as you get ready for a war you and your father view as inevitable, so too do others try and get ready for a war they think might happen."
T'Challa: "(Clenches his hand so hard he starts bleeding from the wrist) BUT THEY'VE STARTED IT! (Dramatically turns around with rage and sadness clearly visible in his eyes) My father was a man who desired peace above all else but understood that sometimes force was necessary when required, and how does the one man who's been allowed to step into our halls, meet our families, and see how we work in order to understand us repay us? He tries to steal the Vibranium Ptah had so generously given us!"
Anuki: "While I myself will never forgive that man either, as he is the reason your father slumbers a possible eternal slumber, I also understand as someone who was not born into these lands myself that sometimes we make mistakes for what we think is right at the moment. But that does not mean we have to keep the anger in our hearts and flames of anger burning brighter than those of hope."
T'Challa: "I just wish for a world where Shuri can do as she pleases (reveals a locket around his neck and opens it, revealing a picture of some woman with white hair that causes the prince great sadness), as the gods know I cannot."
Anuki: "As I've said before, my son (rubs T'Challa's back), like your father found me, you too are destined for happiness, and you should not force false love on others. Gods know I understand what it's like to be favored by one man and given all his love while the others fight for what scraps they get."
Meanwhile, a sixteen-year-old Black woman, possibly Shuri, is hiding in the shadows of the throne room and seems to get angry as she rushes outside towards something that leads further down the hidden passages of the castle.
And that is all for now hope you all enjoyed and until next time stay safe and peace!
