Bucky was just entering the treeline when there was a massive sound of snapping branches and the heavy thud of something hitting the ground. He slowed, shifting his stick to his right hand. That had been a crash landing. The ship hadn't seemed large, probably only enough space for one person, but it was hard to say what kind of condition they were in - he had to be prepared for the occupant to come out swinging.
Slipping through the trees, the sleek ship finally came into view. It had landed very badly, but mostly seemed upright - at least, the canopy was on the top side and looked intact. Bucky pressed himself against one of the intact trees and watched for movement. The ship really was like nothing he had ever seen. There weren't really wings or propellers or any kind. It looked, frankly, more like a kid's toy or something out of a sci-fi show than anything. It definitely didn't look Wakandan, and there were no visible weapons. Maybe a new kind of spy plane? It would have had to be to not be automatically picked up by Wakanda's air defenses.
"I hope you're Wakandan, or you're gonna have a really bad day," he shouted. "Announce yourself!"
Hopefully whoever was inside was unconscious or unarmed. He wasn't looking forward to getting in a fight wearing only lightly wrapped fabric.
