************************************************
Bucky is awakened by the sound of battle and from the sound of it, it’s close. He opens his eyes from his place on the couch and focuses on the scene in front of him.
There is what appears to be a fort taking up most of the living room. Card board boxes of various sizes made up the fort and inside little Cass was trying to hold A.J. off with a plastic sword. Behind Cass, Shuri screamed playing her part of the damsel in destress to perfection.
A.J. would charge at Shuri, only to have Cass block him and declare, “You’ll never get the Princess! Never!”
“Oh yeah? We’ll see about that. I’ll release my secret weapon and he’ll tear the fort to the ground!” A.J retorted.
“You don’t have a secret weapon!” Cass yelled.
“Oh yes I do. And he’s going to help me take the fort AND the Princess.” A.J. boldly stated.
“What do you want with her?” Cass asked.
“She’s gonna be make me a suit like she made Uncle Sam and I’m gonna fly far far away.” A.J. answered.
Bucky chuckled which drew the attention of the trio. “Well it’s about time you woke up.” Shuri told him. “This invader is trying to take the fort AND me.”
Bucky just laid there and then slowly made his way off the couch and on to the floor. “Bucky, aren’t you going to help save me?” Shuri asked.
“Who the heck is Bucky?” He asked giving her and Cass a menacing look. “I’m White Wolf and I’m A.J.’s secret weapon.” He charged suddenly and crashed the fort wall down, card board boxes going every where. Using the distraction, A.J. rushed forward and grabbed the Princess and started pulling her out of the mess while she pretended to fight him off.
Cass knowing he had to do something fast, leaned down and whispered into the White Wolf’s ear. Listening intently, Bucky nods at what he’s being told. “Think so?” He asks, and Cass shakes his head. “Alright, deal.” He changes direction and charges towards A.J. and grabs the Princess up in his arms. She squeals and holds on tight as he takes her back to the fort.
A.J. stops and puts his hands on his hips. “Hey! You’re MY secret weapon, what are you doing?”
“Well, the good knight Cass has promised me a reward of great value and honor and I just couldn’t turn it down.” White Wolf explains.
“Whatever it was, I’ll double it!” A.J. counters.
“No deal, besides presently you are unable to offer the same reward. Now be off with you. White Wolf needs to collect his reward.” He sits the Princess down on her feet, but keeps a tight grip on her in case A.J. decides to charge again.
“Yes you two need to get cleaned up for lunch, but first these boxes need to go back where you found them. Mama will be home soon and if you get in trouble, there will be no playing with my tech.” Shuri threatened.
“Alright.” Both boys replied starting to gather the boxes and Shuri and Bucky made their way out of the mess and into the kitchen.
Shuri started towards the refrigerator, but Bucky stopped her. “Oh no Princess, I was promised a reward and I intend to collect.”
“Oh yeah? And what exactly were you promised White Wolf?” She moves closer to him. “Gold, title, land?”
“Knight Cass offered me the sweetest of rewards. A reward much more valuable than gold or any of those others. I dare say this reward is worth more than vibranium even.” He explained and moved even closer, placing his metal finger under her chin and raising her face to him. “He offered me the reward of a kiss from the Princess and I intend to collect and if her highness is agreeable, I intend to take more than one, for I am after all a greedy wolf who enjoys playing with my prey.”
Shuri swallowed hard at the meaning behind his words. “One kiss White Wolf, the rest can be negotiated at a later time, say in the bedroom after the boys are asleep.”
“Well, I usually don’t negotiate, but I accept your terms.” He said as he took her lips and kissed her. Pulling back he chuckled.
“You find kissing me funny huh?” Shuri pulled back.
“Not at all. I was laughing at something Cass told me when he was negotiating. He told me that he could offer a kiss from the Princess, but to be prepared, kissing was gross and I wouldn’t like it.” Bucky explains.
Shuri laughed. “Well, I hope it wasn’t too gross.”
“Oh Princess, your kisses could never be gross.” He moved in for another and she dodged him and moved towards the cabinets.
“Not now greedy wolf. I have knights to feed and you need to help the them clean up the living room. I don’t want Sarah coming home and finding this place a wreck and her boys starving.” She pulled down some Mac and cheese and turned to find a pan.
“Alright fine, but later we’re going to negotiate my loyalty to your throne.” He moved towards the living room.
“But I don’t have a throne.” She said to his back.
Bucky turned around and smiled. “Not a throne for sitting Princess. You have a throne alright, one I plan on kneeling before tonight and worshiping.” Without another word he turned and walked away.
