Chapter 4: Time Skippu

Waking up, I stretch a little before sitting up, and on the stand beside me I see a virtual clock displaying the time in this zone and a Kimoyo bead bracelet. Putting it on, it glows to life before dimming down as it speaks.

"User: Alex Stark, registered."It said, and nothing else. Losing interest, I start to look at my room in appreciation, the future sci-fi look was awesome honestly. Hearing a knock at my door though, I look over to see someone delivering me breakfast.

"Thank you."I say, but seeing no response she either doesn't know English, or has some prejudice towards me, and honestly I'm leaning more towards the latter. But nonetheless she sets the food down on the table in my room before leaving, and looking at it it's surprisingly an American breakfast, honestly wanted to try the cuisine from here, but maybe in the future.

Eating it then going to the lab since that's the only place I know here, (took me a couple try's of walking around to find it though) I see Shuri there already.

"Hey Alex, hope you don't mind but I already organized everything and started on it."She says with a sheepish look referring to the hologram display of a not so well looking Arc Reactor.

"It's fine, I actually expecting it already, but what you got?"I ask while walking over.

"Not a lot honestly."She answers while pointing to the hologram on the table next to her.

"But first, can you spread your arms and legs out while standing still?"

"Uh, sure I guess."I said a little suspiciously. Doing as she says, she touches her beads a little before it suddenly starts scanning me, and as it finishes I speak.

"So what was that for?"I ask curiously.

"To make you clothes."She says simply while messing with a projection from her beads a little longer before closing it.

"So where are you at?"I said walking over, referring to the display of the not so well made Arc Reactor.

"Well the main problem is designing it to where it's small enough, there are no problems for the energy itself, the problem there is easily fixed by Vibranium."She says showing her failure at trying to make it smaller.

"Well I think your problem is trying to build around the impractical Arc Reactor."I say throwing her design in the virtual trash save for a piece.

"Instead, focus on building around the smallest possible power source."I say shrinking the piece which was what should've been the palladium until it couldn't anymore, probably the display itself showing the limit to let it still be effective.

"Now all you do is build around it."I say while turning to Shuri with a smile.

"Wow, your information hurt more than it helped."She says playfully.

"Don't blame my information, blame yourself for being so short-sighted child."I say with smugness though clearly a joke. Walking away from the table to let her work freely, she walks past me towards the table and responds back.

"Your only a couple months older than me you know."

"Wow, stalker alert."I whisper though loud enough that she can hear.

"Asshole!"She yells as I start to leave.

"You kiss your mother with that mouth?"I ask aloud rhetorically before completely leaving, I want to see T'Chaka about something, so asking one of the people around they say he's at the throne room.

Walking over I see the doors closed with Dora in front of it so I patiently wait as I see one of them touch their beads. After a few minutes the doors open as I step in to see T'Chaka in the throne with Ramonda standing beside him with the tribe elders here as well. Stepping into the middle of them I greet T'Chaka.

"King T'Chaka."I said simply, honestly had no clue what else to do since bowing is normally the go to but they don't do that here.

"Alex, what brings you here?"T'Chaka asked curiously.

"Because I have a request, T'Challa gets trained by the Dora Milaje, correct?"

"Yes."T'Chaka answers smply.

"Then let me join his training."I said and I know I'll have to play catch up to their level, but it'd be a good way to become physically stronger and bond with T'Challa and gain his trust. Then suddenly one of the elders speak in Wakandan clearly mad.

"First we let an outsider in our city, now you have him experimenting with Vibranium, then he requests to train with the Dora Milaje?! What next?! He marries your daughter and fights to become King?!"

"I will only say it once Border Tribe elder, lower your tone when speaking to your King. If Shuri and him do eventually love each other and get married, he has every right to become King as he becomes Wakandan royalty even if by not blood. He is also our royal guest so you'd do right to not disrespect him in my presence, also if his reported visions are true it's best if he's here preparing for the future. And about training with the Dora, it's only training, I'd believe letting him experiment with the Vibranium is worse."T'Chaka says laughing a little at the end. And seeing the elder back down clearly, though I may not have understood what they said since it's in Wakandan, it's clear who won the conversation.

"Alex I shall grant your request, take him."T'Chaka said referring to one of the Dora's as she nods and then opens the door and leave's as I follow.

Walking around we eventually reach an open room that's like a box with T'Challa and Dora's inside all being trained by one Dora up front. We walk around the group that's together training and arrive at the front. Once we reach there the one that brought me left as the seeming trainer spoke to me.

"Are you ready for this?"She asked simply.

"Don't know, probably not, but I'm prepared to do anything."I said simply, and though it's only words now I truly am prepared to get stronger for what's to come in the future, of course there are a few shortcut's in this world that I'll take once the time comes, for now physical training is all I could do other than building so I will.

"Hmph, Prince T'Challa!"She calls out from the crowd of people training and sparring, and eventually T'Challa gets here.

"Fight him, I need to evaluate his skills."She said while I already knew Ima get my ass handed to me, if him being a few years older at least didn't prove my assumption then the clear training he's gone through does, but nonetheless it's a good chance to get familiar with him.

"Prince T'Challa."I said in greeting.

"Alex, it's nice to finally meet you."He greeted back with a friendly smile.

"Likewise, and don't beat me too hard please."I requested half a joke.

"Don't worry, I'll make it quick."He said confidently but in a friendly manner. We're both in fighting stances already, though mine more a sloppy imitation of a boxer while he took, a very different one from anything I've seen.

"Enough talking, begin!"She announced and true to his word it was quick. I wasn't a idiot and tried to approach him first, after all he's vastly stronger, quicker, and more experienced than me, but as soon as he approached I threw a wide hook which he ducked before wrapping his arms around my head and locking up the arm I swung before body slamming me to the ground. He still had his arms around my head and was on top of me slowly choking me out before I tapped out. Coughing I sit-up.

"No hard feelings, eh?"He asked with his arm out to me, and accepting it he pulls me up.

'No hard feelings, but I'll get you back one day.'I thought, thinking of multiple possible moments in the future where I may be able to get him back for this.

"Well you're clearly weak, you'll have to focus on body-weight training while learning how to properly fight. I'll also take into account time for you to build and experiment so you're done here for today."She said as I nod.

"See ya Prince T'Challa."I say casually seeing how laid back he's been with me as he returns the farewell so I then leave. And like that three months pass.
