## Files

### United Nations Address

Esteemed delegates, I stand before you today with a decision I did not make lightly. Several of you here were aware of Wakanda’s negotiations with the Avengers prior to the tragic events of A-Day, including gifting the late Captain Rogers with a shield made from our most precious of resources. In light of the events that took Captain Rogers’ life, disbanded the Avengers organization, and destroyed one of America's greatest cities, Wakanda has had to make certain compromises for the continued safety of our nation.

We will compromise no longer. From this day forward, Wakanda will once again be closing its borders. We are ceasing all imports and exports, cancelling educational and corporate exchange programs, and shuttering our international embassies. We in Wakanda feel a return to total isolation and neutrality is the only way to assure our people’s safety.

My late father used to say ‘A great leader is not defined by the best of the times, but on how he guides his people through the worst of times,’ I believe we are living in the latter, and that how we respond to it, how we guide our people through it, will show us the leaders we can be. The King of Wakanda has one goal - to protect his people. Though many of you may not agree with this choice I have made, I hope you can respect it.

Thank you.

That's it, huh?  Our Golden Boy goes down and the pointy-eared mouse-catcher can't deal with the world anymore. God, I wish I could walk off like that, but see when you're a hero, you can't just shove your head in the sand.

I got your piss pour offer to buy my damn company, by the way, and I hope you take this as a hell no and eff off. I don't need saving from a coward like you. I still believe in Steve's vision for the world. He dies and you pretend you were never on board? Screw you.

If you were a good man, you’d feel guilty every damn day that you didn't build him something other than a shield, cause clearly that did nothing to protect him from what was coming. But no, no I know you're not a good man, cause if you were, this would not be the move you’d pull. You would’ve come to the hearings, you would not have offered me chump change for my father's company, and you would have been at his funeral.

I’m ashamed of you.

### After Action Report "AIM in Wakanda"

As part of training for the Dora Milaje recruits, Aneka and I led the first years on a typical perimeter sweep of the southwest border. We let them touch the Vibranium barrier to see how their Kimoyo bracelets would react to it.

We detected motion beyond the barrier, and Aneka stayed with the recruits while I went to investigate. I am not sure if they were trying to be stealthy in their bright yellow space suits or not, but I spotted them immediately. There were only three of them, using brick-like scanning devices over some plants and trees.

I knocked them unconscious and ordered a jet to drop them in the middle of the Kalahari desert. I thought it would be entertaining – for the recruits.

Since then, my sword sisters have seen three other scouting parties less than a mile from the border. None have made it to the barrier itself, so our deterrents are still working. But they are getting uncomfortably close, beloved. We may need to take a more proactive approach.

### To: King T'Challa From: Tony

Everything’s gone. Everyone's… done. Did you watch? Did you see Thor set down his hammer, Nat disappear? If you did, did you care?

They didn't just take my company. They took my family. I don't mean my dad, his legacy… what was I saying?

I don't remember what I said last time, man. Probably talking out my ass. I was angry. I’m still angry.

But this is the white flag. The SOS. Can you just… buy them out? Your country’s richer than god. It’d be a snap of your fingers. Claws. Whatever.

I need this. Without the suit, the company, I… you're still a King when you go to sleep at night, right? But me?

Just… just save me. Please. Be the hero, lord it over me, just don't let Steve’s dream die on my watch. Don't let my family stay broken. Please.

### To: T'Challa From: Shuri

Shuri: Thought you might want to see this. There are also a few audio files from our old line to the Avengers that… just listen to them, you will understand.

Reporter: According to several eyewitnesses, among the rogue Avengers was Steve Rogers, also known as Captain America. Rogers was purportedly lost five years ago during the A-Day disaster, but an audio recording released to several communication satellites confirms that Rogers survived. There are no further details at this time.
