The stealth operation
Currently, operation talk to Peter was not going the way the girls planned it to go.
"How are today Peter?" Wanda questions, sending glances every now and then at the two men who were standing behind Peter like bodyguards. Peter smiles meekly, sending apologetic looks at the two girls as they were under intense scrutiny from his iron and magic dads.
"It's going fine, Dad and Dad won't let me out of the room though," Peter complains, shooting lukewarm glances at his two dads.
"We're just making sure you don't have any other medical problems, you were unresponsive for 13 hours Peter, that's not something you can just recover from in a week," Stephen states, his disappointed dad look sending waves of guilt through Shuri.
"S-sorry, I should've done a better job." Shuri mumbles, kicking her feet like a kid does when they stole the last cookie.
"It's not your fault Shuri if anyone's to blame it would be Tony, he should've stopped the simulation before everlasting damages happened," Stephen reassures nonchalantly throwing the blame at an offended Tony.
"It's not my fault! Everyone else decided it was a good idea to put the kids into the adult simulator! I was trying to warn you guys of the repercussions but no-one would listen!" Tony states defensively, glaring at Stephen with no real heat behind it. Stephen just rolls his eyes while his cape uh, it tried doing that. Tony looks insulted and before anyone knew it, the two of them were bickering like an old couple.
Wanda, seizing the opportunity, grabs Peter by the wrist and drags him out of the recovery room. Shuri follows close behind, her long legs making it easy to match Wanda's steps.

After making it a few floors down Wanda checked the area (Made easy by the amount of training she got from the three assassins she calls her dad, Uncle, and Mom) before nodding to Shuri. Shuri nods back and places an invisible field (Something she stole from her brother) down.
"What's going on?" Peter questions, his warm chocolate orbs filling with curiosity.
'Shuri found a file last week,' Wanda starts mentally, pulling out said file, 'We may be able to convince everyone that we can go on missions if we're able to complete this one!' She finishes, looking excited. Peter feels his sense thrum with unease, making the new sneaking out mission all the more foreboding.
'What exactly will we be doing?' Peter questions, grabbing for the file. Shuri stops him by showing him a holographic imagery of a nearby workers camp.
'You are to get in, steal any info you can get from the druids and get out as fast as possible without alerting anyone,' Shuri tells him, tapping the image and making it zoom out to the surrounding area, 'The area is surrounded by low-class druids but because of their high numbers in that area the mission was scrapped....until we found it.' Shuri finishes, turning the holographic image off in process.
'Problem, how are we going to sneak out?' Peter questions, smiling nervously at the looks the girls were sending him.
'Shuri will be our distraction, I'll be the one to sneak in, and you...you'll be the getaway driver.' Wanda tells him in a dramatic voice.
'You've been hanging out with Uncle Clint too much.' Peter tells her, not disagreeing with the plan. Wanda mischievously grins, taking his weary comment as a compliment.
'We leave near midnight, so have your gear packed and ready by then.' Wanda warns him right before she cuts mental communication off. Peter nods in understanding only to yelp as he's dragged out of his hiding place.
"What exactly were you think young man?" Tony questions, irritation, and worry in his voice.
"Um, I wasn't?" Peter responds, flinching at the glare his Irondad sent his way.
"Exactly, You weren't! what do you think happened when Stephen and I turn back to look at you only to see that you weren't there?" Tony lectures, his worry seeping through. Stephen places a hand on Tony's shoulder as a comforting gesture before looking at Peter with his famous disappointed dad stare.
"You worried everyone sick, especially when we couldn't find Shuri or Wanda either." Stephen reprimands, sending both the girls only a sample of his stare. Buck silently walks up to Wanda and stares at her intensely, disappointment practically radiating off of him.
"Sorry, папа," Wanda comments delicately, visibly relaxing when he quietly pats her on the head. Shuri was the only one not off the hook as her brother storms his way over to her.
"Shuri, what did I say about touching the equipment?" T'Challa questions, his glare softening only slightly at the guilty look on her face.
"Sorry brother, I just wanted to show Peter and Wanda the cool Wakandian technology...especially since they won't be able to see our home..." Shuri murmurs, looking at her feet in sadness and guilt. Guilt at lying and sadness at the reminder of her home. Peter walks over and places a comforting hand on her shoulder, making her perk up slightly. T'challa sighs at this, his weariness at the situation shining through.
"Please just don't do it again Shuri." He requests, not seeing the guilt that slivered into her eyes.
"Okay, brother." She responds, smiling slightly.
Operation: Prove yourself to your overbearing family was a go...right after everyone stopped lecturing them.
