"We refuse." Fury said this time. Avengers had been his brainchild and he didn't want political mud on it. Avengers was an independent organisation and he wanted to be that as always.

"Wakanda and us had not been friends. Why should we accept you now?" Wayne asked M'baku.

"It's because we have started at the wrong foot from the start and T'Challa wanted to change that. And I too carry the same ambition. Wakanda would like to help the Avengers." M'baku said.

"Wakanda will never be accepted. If you want to join then it can be negotiated. Wayne, Fury I know you are against it but you both can check M'baku personally to see his moral code. After the trials you can decide yourself if he is fit to join. Politics would never come inside Avengers, but as a protector of Earth you are welcome to join. The assessment would depend on you both." John said.

"Can I get some respect here?" M'baku said as he saw he was not at all respected in this whole conversation.

"No." Both Wayne and Fury replied to him unisonly.

"F**k." M'Baku cursed out. Both the Queen and Suri were dumbfounded about how the whole topic had changed from culprit to their king trying to join the other side. M'baku when looking at them had a sense of guilt in his face but he had no other choice.

The way Earth's humanity was advancing technologically, Wakanda needed a defence mechanism and Avengers were the only way to keep Wakanda safe. He had thought a lot of this matter and took this decision. He might lose his pride in all of this but at least his country would be safe.

John knew what M'Baku was thinking and for this reason he readily agreed. If Wakanda got exposed then the topic of Vibranium would come up and that would be another kind of problem for the people of Earth.

Wakanda needed to be under shadows for the time being. Even though Pokemons were now integrated in the society but at the end humans always wanted more. There was never an end to the greed of the people. And thus John wanted Wakanda to be under the protection of the Avengers.

"Is it really required?" Wayne asked as he was thinking why John would accept the condition and then he remembered Vibranium.

"Yes." John said.

"I will look into it." Wayne said as he knew that now he had no other choice and they would soon run out of time if Wakanda wasn't protected fast.

"You all can decide how you see fit. Karn will get a 5 year sentence and after that would be handed over to us. That is the deal as I have said before." John said. M'Baku nodded his head and he rejoiced secretly.

Wakanda finally would have an umbrella over themselves and could continue their lifestyle without interference. John left after that while Wayne and Fury would decide what to do with the King of Wakanda while also handing over Karn for 5 years.

John had already talked with Master Weaver about it so a little bit of delay wouldn't matter. John went to work as usual and like this days passed in tranquillity.

John loved this silence and tranquil environment. He had been missing this for a long time. But he also knew that it would soon be time to leave. He needed to keep his promise and delaying further would just be bad faith.

In early October John called for a meeting of all the Avengers. He needed to leave and this time he decided to bring new friends on this journey.

"It's been some time since we have convened. Not gonna lie, I thought the whole band was disbanded." Tony joked.

"Why? You want to fight powerful enemies? I can take you to some powerful enemies." John said.

"How powerful are they?" Tony asked with confidence.

"It will be a walk in the park for most of you." John said.

"Wait. Are we really going to face new enemies again?" Banner asked as he didn't expect the joke of Tony would turn out to be real.

"You all wanted to go to a parallel universe. Now we have a chance for a vacation. Want to join?" John asked.

"Parallel universe? You mean Earth 616?" Wayne asked.

"Yes. I need to keep my promise. It's time I leave and since there are no dangers this time you all can come with me and see the place where the people say where everything had started." John said.

All immediately raised their hands in order to show that they wanted to join. When John left last time, they weren't able to do anything but this time there was no sword on top of their heads.

They all could go and have fun.

"Seems like all of you want to join. Pack your bags. We will leave tomorrow. Take all your gears. We might need it."
