This is Crossbones. We've reached the border.
It looks clear, but our intel says Wakanda has some pretty heavy security.
[Black Panther] Your intel is correct.
You have no business here, Crossbones.
Leave now, or there will be consequences.
Three on five? I like those odds.
Take 'em!
You have chosen consequences.
Aah!
[both grunt]
[grunts] [grunts]
[grunting]
Superior numbers do not always ensure victory.
Well, they definitely help.
Plasma canon.
[Crossbones on speaker device] What was that you were saying about superior numbers?
[laughs] Count again.
Finish the robots. Crossbones is mine.
[grunts]
[grunting]
[computer voice] GPS, offline. Steering control, offline.
[grunts]
[grunting]
If I'm going down, at least you're going down with me!
[yells]
You are in Wakanda now, Crossbones,
which means you do not even get to die without my permission.
[Ms. Marvel] Black Panther and Ms. Marvel back in action,
on another classic Avengers team-up.
This is not an Avengers mission.
I am no longer an Avenger.
Hey, yeah. What's up with you quitting the team?
And where exactly are we going?
See for yourself.
[gasps] O.M.G.!
Is that what I think it is?
[Black Panther] Welcome to Attilan, home of the Inhumans.
I studied everything about this place.
I can't believe we're here. This is so awesome.
I am happy you are happy, Kamala.
Wakanda and the Inhumans maintain diplomatic relations.
I am having dinner with the royals of Attilan.
And you're bringing me along because?
There is a matter I must discuss with the king and queen.
I believe they will be more relaxed if they see I have brought a friend along.
Well, I hope you let them know you're coming.
I've heard Black Bolt and Medusa don't do so great with visitors.
[chirping]
Black Panther.
I'm Princess Crystal of the Inhuman Royal Family.
I bid you greetings and welcome you
on behalf of King Black Bolt and Queen Medusa.
Thank you, Crystal. This is my, uh, friend.
Ms. Marvel, please meet Cryst--
The Ms. Marvel?! I've read all about you.
You're the youngest Avenger ever. I'm your biggest fan!
You're excited to meet me?
I'm so envious of you and your adventures.
You're young like me, but you get to go out and see the world.
See the world, meet the people, punch the people.
I'd give anything to do what you do.
Being a royal means you have to live under royal rules.
Such a pain. [clears throat]
Oh. Of course. Please, follow me.
[Crystal] You actually saw the whole band? In person?
Fifth row, center. So close! I would've died!
I did! I totally did!
Our people have been allies for generations, T'Challa.
Your presence gives us a rare opportunity to display Inhuman hospitality.
As it is very dangerous for Black Bolt to speak aloud,
I understand your reluctance to bring in visitors.
Now, Black Bolt would like to know:
why have you come to Attilan?
In searching my grandfather's archives, I discovered an object
Wakanda gave to the Inhumans for safekeeping.
It looks like a segment of a small golden claw.
Yes. We know of this piece.
Good. I desire it to be returned to me.
With regret, we must deny your request.
The piece is Wakandan property. I will have it back.
The answer is no.
Black Bolt, Medusa, if the thing belongs to Black Panther,
why not just give it to-- Crystal,
you have not been asked to speak.
You have our apologies, T'Challa,
but your grandfather made us swear that no one would get this piece of the key.
Not even members of his own family.
My grandfather thought the Shadow Council
had been defeated when he passed the key to you.
[Medusa] "Shadow Council"? What is that?
A dangerous cabal bent on Wakanda's destruction.
The Shadow Council has agents everywhere.
They may even have infiltrated Inhuman society.
[chair scrapes]
This is serious.
If we have an infiltrator or spies in Attilan,
we should be do-- Be still, Crystal.
There are no spies in Attilan.
But what if there are? [thud]
I see I have caused trouble between you,
which was not my intention.
Come, Kamala. We are leaving.
That could've gone better.
Were you trying to get them to yell at each other? Because it worked.
While they discuss, you and I can move more freely in the city.
Hey, awesome! We can use the time to check out the city.
We can see all the best spots in Attilan--
Randac's tower, the Terrigen caves--
Oh, there is this beautiful park with the best views.
Unless you hate heights. Then the views are kind of terrifying.
You know, floating city and all. [grunts]
Sewers can be good, too, I guess.
These aren't sewers. They're more like tunnels.
Catacombs.
This is a spy mission, right?
[gasps] My first-ever spy mission.
"What's my name? Khan. Kamala Khan."
You watch too many movies.
If my memory of the city's underground is correct,
this should lead to an underground chamber where--
Where we will find the lost key of Wakanda!
I know. Too many movies.
Creepy.
Creepy times ten.
How are you not skeeved out by this?
Our mission is too important to let ourselves be,
as you say, "skeeved out."
[chitters]
Ugh.
[screeches]
[chittering, screeching]
[screeching]
Okay, we're past skeevy now.
This is a skeevageddon.
[chittering, screeching]
[grunting]
Because why wouldn't giant crystal rhino spiders
come to life and attack us? [grunts]
[grunting]
[grunts] Panther!
[grunts]
[screeches]
Aah!
[grunts]
[grunting]
[screeches] [grunts]
[screeching]
[grunts] [crying out]
[growling] [Black Panther grunts]
[screeching]
I vote we get out of here and come back with bug spray. Thoughts?
Ms. Marvel! Slingshot!
[yells]
[grunts]
[screeching]
[growling] [grunts]
Embiggen!
[grunts]
[screeching]
Aah! [grunts]
[screeching] T'Challa!
Hold on! I'm coming!
Not good. Not good.
My first secret mission, and I totally lost Black Panther.
Never lost, only misplaced.
Great. Let's go! [groans]
[grunts]
I'm glad I'm your partner on this mission and not a sidekick,
'cause I have a real problem with the concept of sidekicks.
I mean, don't tell Cap this, but Bucky was basically his underpaid intern.
Ms. Marvel, please, focus.
Focused. I promise I'm focused.
I'm focused because I'm sure you have a plan to get us out of this.
You're the Black Panther, and the Black Panther always has a plan.
Plans are totally your thing. So, what's the plan?
I am working on a course of action.
No plan, then. Okay, now I'm worried.
[growling]
[whistle chiming]
[grunts]
[whistle continues]
Well, hello again.
Black Bolt and Medusa are arguing, and that's really painful to watch.
So I thought I'd find the two of you and see what you were up to.
I never thought I'd find you in the catacombs.
Nobody ever comes down here.
[gasps]
Ohh!
You're after that thing your grandfather gave us, aren't you?
It is important that I reach the key chamber.
I must retrieve the key segment before the Shadow Council does.
But Black Bolt said no.
Crystal, please. You have to help us.
I trust Black Panther.
You don't know him like I do, but he's my friend.
If he says it's important, he wouldn't lie.
I don't know. Come on.
Please?
Aw! That's adorable.
Okay. If you say so, Ms. Marvel.
But we better not get caught.
This way.
The key chamber is on the other side,
but the doors are sealed under a bio-lock.
They have to be opened by two people.
One has to be an Inhuman. The other has to be a royal Wakandan.
I will take the Wakandan door.
Ms. Marvel, please take the Inhuman door.
Wait a minute. You knew Black Bolt and Medusa
were gonna say "no" to this, didn't you?
I had my suspicions.
Hmm.
So you didn't bring me along
because you wanted me to help smooth things with the royals.
[Black Panther] That was indeed part of it. [Ms. Marvel] No.
You just needed someone to get you into the key chamber.
And that was another part. Not cool, Black Panther.
So not cool. I thought we were friends.
So we are.
But some things must take precedence over friendship.
This is it.
The second segment of the key.
Aah! [groans]
Crystal! What are you doing?
Hard to believe, isn't it?
And we're just getting started.
Ugh.
[groans]
She copied me! She copied me!
Ms. Marvel, she cannot have copied everything!
You're right! [grunts]
Embiggen!
[both grunting]
Take that, copycat!
[grunts]
Kamala?
Absolutely. [grunts]
[groans]
Panther? Black Panther, are you okay?
[groans] I am fine.
Good. Now we must--
You must sit there at the bottom of that pit for the rest of your lives.
Oh.
Hello there.
Okay, I'm just letting everybody know
I don't have a twin sister.
[Black Panther] She is a shape-shifter.
Oh, don't pretend you're so smart.
I fooled you.
Admit it. You thought I was Crystal and Ms. Marvel.
But it was me all the time,
the lovely and amazing Zanda,
Princess of Narobia.
Acknowledge my brilliance.
Greetings, Zanda.
Wait. You know her? We have met.
I invited him to my Naming Festival, and he refused.
Can you believe it? So rude.
You sent six warriors to kidnap me.
It's a tradition.
Okay, I see this is totally a TMI situation with your ex-GF, but--
She is not my ex-GF.
Zanda has... self-esteem issues.
She gets into trouble trying to prove her superiority over others.
Zanda, whatever you think you are doing,
you must stop now.
The Shadow Council-- They are my friends.
They respect me.
They see my greatness.
I'm a princess, I have superpowers,
and, oh, yes, I have tricked
the oh-so-brilliant King Black Panther
into leading me to this!
I have known you to be greedy and vain, Zanda,
but working for the Shadow Council?
I'm not working for the Shadow Council,
I'm on it.
And you were right.
Nowhere is safe from us.
Soon the shadow will cover all.
I can't believe you dated her!
We met, as I said, once.
There was no dating.
Did she always have the, you know...
I do not know. How long do you think
she's been on the Shadow Council? I do not know.
[Ms. Marvel] What is this Shadow Council, anyway?
Why aren't the Avengers in on this?
It is a Wakandan matter, Kamala.
I am only doing what the mission-- Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You don't get to pull that
"for the good of the mission" stuff on me.
I might be young, but I'm still an Avenger.
We wouldn't be in this stupid pit if you'd been honest with me from the start.
Honesty is not the issue. I--
We will continue this later.
For now, we must get out and stop Princess Zanda.
[groaning]
Whoa! Hey! Get away!
[grunts] [Black Panther] Do not be alarmed.
Are you who you appear to be?
I'm Crystal, of the Inhuman Royal Family.
Ha! We've heard that before.
If you're the real Crystal, prove it.
Okay, you're her. I'm Ms. Marvel.
That's Black Panther. We're Avengers. I am. He was.
His ex-GF's a bad guy. She pretended to be you.
Long story. How are you?
I don't know. The last I remember,
someone knocked me out, and then I woke up in here.
You were abducted by the same party who put us here--
the shape changer, Princess Zanda.
She posed as you to infiltrate the royal family.
We need to get out of here and warn them.
[grunting]
No use. It's covered tight.
No matter. I have pinpointed our location.
The way out is not up. It is down.
[grunting]
How is this better than the pit?
Patience.
Too easy. This will show the Shadow Council I'm truly unstoppable.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're stoppable.
Think again, little girl.
Like I told you when we first met, [gasps]
Zanda, it is not happening.
Aah!
[both grunting]
Your parents will be very disappointed in you.
[grunts] You're too late. They already are.
This is not a game, Zanda.
[both grunting]
Give me the key segment!
No! It's mine!
I stole it fair and square!
[grunts]
[grunting]
You're just like my parents. "Be a good girl, Zanda.
Do your duty, Zanda. Be quiet. Be pretty."
Well, I'm not just a pretty face.
I'm one of the deadliest fighters on the planet!
[Ms. Marvel] Yeah? [grunts]
Well, I eat deadly fighters for breakfast,
and breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
[charging yell]
[grunting] Nope.
[grunts]
Ms. Marvel, catch!
[grunts]
[grunting]
[grunts]
Little pest. Give that back!
[both grunt]
[grunts]
Ow.
[chuckles, gasps]
Ugh!
[both grunt]
[grunts]
[chuckles]
[laughs]
What do you think? Pretty good likeness, right?
Copy whatever form you want, Zanda.
It will not change the outcome.
[both grunting]
[Ms. Marvel] Hold it right there!
Ms. Marvel, it is me!
She's lying. Get her!
No! Do not listen to her!
Gimme a break. Black Panther and I are friends.
I know the real him. Embiggen!
[groans]
[grunts]
That belongs to the Shadow Council.
Give it back, or else I'll--
What is the meaning of this?
All right. Well, I have to run.
Till we meet again.
Medusa, love the hair.
Mwah!
[chuckles, grunts]
Our decision was final, King T'Challa,
yet still you ignored our direct--
[grunts] This isn't right.
Black Panther was only trying to protect the key.
Hold your tongue, Crystal.
Why should I? Because I'm young?
You're only saying that because you know I'm right!
There was no other way.
Trust me. Trust Crystal.
I am the only one who can keep the key safe.
We... have been arrogant.
We never imagined a spy could infiltrate our city in the sky,
much less the royal family.
Even here in the clouds, you are not safe from the Shadow Council.
Be vigilant.
We shall look forward to the next royal dinner.
They're always... unpredictable.
[Ms. Marvel] If you ever want me to go on another secret spy mission,
you can just ask me to help you, and I will.
I could not have done this without you.
Yeah, I totally could've been a secret agent spy.
When Princess Zanda duplicated me,
how did you tell us apart?
She had the key, you didn't.
[laughs]
You are a terrible sidekick, Kamala,
but a very good secret agent spy.
And a great friend.
