3rd POV

Terra flew towards Sherri giving no one time to react as she came through and very angrily punched Sherri straight in the nose causing the crunching of bones to be heard throughout the hallway as Sherri flew back screaming. She grabbed her face as blood started falling from her now broken nose her back on the ground.

"What the fuck Terra?!" She screamed in pain as all anyone who witnessed could was frozen in fear. Terra walked right up to her body and grabbed her hand under her shoe.

"What the fuck indeed....." she said flatly through Sherri's screams of pain and putting pressure on her hand with her foot. "For the longest time I put up with your shit and your rumors . Everyone here did....but your shitty personality and backstabbing nature almost got me killed this weekend. You knew I was coming out of my shoot. You knew Dabi was in the editing room." She said putting more pressure on her hand as she tried to escape.

"AHHHHHHHH!!!" Sherri screamed in pain.

 "You know I would come looking for him when I was done. I knew someone else was in the shoot room, but i thought it was just a passerby or the janitor..... You did it on purpose.....to drive a wedge between us." She said as Sherri writhed in pain under her. She was about to break her hand when suddenly she got off of her and scowled down at her.

"You're fucking crazy!!!" She yelled out backing up and clutching her hand. Terra just gave her the most sadistic smile possible.

"Exactly, I am so why would you want to mess with me? You've seen what I have done to people who have grabbed me or anyone at bars.... Do you want to be on that side?" I asked and she froze and I began walking away. "I suggest you stop spreading rumors about me or Dabi unless you want a broken leg to match your nose." She said leaving as several people in the hallway clapped and Dabi and Rin looked at her still in shock. Dabi actually had a different expression, Half shock and anger and half arousal to which she smirked at him passing him by. "Come on guys we have work to do." She said as the two shockingly fell in line behind her too shocked to speak for a moment. But it only lasted a moment as Dabi looked at her, his shock wearing off.

"What the fuck Terra I thought you were just going to ignore it like you usually would!" He yelled as we reached his office. He tried to act mad but She could tell he didn't care as much as he pretended he did.

"Nope. I am tired of her walking all over everyone and hurting people for her own amusement and validation." She said stopping in front of his office door with Rin. "I'll see you later." She said smiling as he sighed and ruffled her hair.

"Yeah yeah psycho I'll see you later." He said as her and Rin went to the shoot room to finish up there shoot from the day prior.

"That was so badass Terra. Scary as shit but badass!!!! Remind me never to cross you." He said half jokingly. She smirked at him.

"That's right because I'm a psycho ex villain with a shady past." she said sarcastically with a hint of maliciousness.

"Ooooooo scary!!!! Gonna have to pull out the Teflon vest." He said faking a shiver.

"The bedazzled one?" She asked and he nodded.

"But of course!" He said as they giggled together.

They only got five minutes into setting up when Shiku kicked down the door to the studio.

"TEEERRRRRAAAAAA!!!!!!" He yelled out his voice breaking getting into its higher Octive.

"That took longer then I thought..." Rin whispered elbowing her as she cleared her throat.

"What's up Shi-" She asked being interrupted.

"You come back to work and break Sherri's nose?!?!? What the hell I know your mad at her but what were you thinking?!?!" He yelled as Terra for once didn't shrink back at him and just scowled.

"She was running her mouth and as usual you did nothing to stop it so I did. I know you love the money Sherri makes you But she drives everyone insane and because of her little tactic I almost died."

"You were the one that stormed out of the building she never forced you to!" He yelled back defending her. I sighed.

"No she didn't but if she wouldn't have done what she did out of malice and hatred I wouldn't have left going into a rough part of town and almost die..." I said maliciously as I glared at Shiku.

" you broke her nose that could take weeks to heal and she will be out of work! I am going to lose money!" He yelled making me snap internally.

"First of all you don't need more money. You are a small millionaire, you have three cars and a penthouse at the top of this building! You have enough to pay us! You make so much money Shiku and she fucking deserved it! Why are you so concerned with money?! When I came on you could have cared less but the last year you've become more and more greedy." She said. Rin tried to put his hand on he shoulder to get her to stop but she shrugged him off.

"What I do with my money is none of your-"

"You're drinking too much again aren't you? That's the only time you act like this...." She said shocking Shiku as he covered his hand to his mouth. "I can smell it on you. It's 10am Shiku! This isn't about Sherri is it?!" She yelled. "Your just concerned you won't have money to fuel your addiction! I should have known better then to trust you when you said you had it under control!" She said backing Shiku into a corner. "Look at me and tell me I'm wrong!" She yelled. Rin finally pulled her away. Shiku was in shock staring at the ground.

"Terra that's enough." He said as she shoved his hand away keeping her back to Shiku

"He doesn't care about me or my feelings. The only reason he keeps her around is the money she makes him the money I make him. He doesn't care." She said sadly making Shiku himself sad.

Shiku did care about Terra. She was his rising star and a very compassionate friend. He had confided in her about his alocoholism but told her he had it under control and for a long time he did.

Until he didn't. A 5 o'clock drink turned into 4 o'clock then 3 and so on until he was drinking from the moment he woke up until the moment he slept. He was so stressed he hadn't notice that he cared more about his money then his employees. He hadn't known Terra was hurt or anything until he received a voicemail from Dabi and even when he had heard she had been hurt all he cared about was how long she would be out for. Why was he even yelling at her?

He hated Sherri and like he told Dabi he only kept her around for the money. Why keep someone who starts rumors and tries to drive a wedge between the one person who was making Terra happy? Hell if it would have been him he would have kicked the shit out of her years ago or fired her but here he was being called out for not protecting not only his best employee but a good friend. He had told her about his parents and how they refused to call him a "He" to this day even though he had top and bottom surgery years ago. About how the drinking started while she held his hair back over a bowl rubbing his back. He was the first person to see through her icy exterior to the person inside.

"No more violence in the office Miss Porter." He said formily. "Or there will be severe consequences next time." He said fixing his posture and leaving the studio.

Terra was right.

She had met her boiling point and it was time for him to not only be a good friend, but a good employer.

By the time he had gotten back to his office Sherri was already there yelling at his receptionist with bandages all over her nose her face black and blue making him almost chuckle. Terra had one hell of a left hook.

"Shiku!!! Finally! Where have you been?!? Terra assaulted me this morning and I want her fired a-and arrested!!!!" She yelled out for everyone in the office to here. Shiku silently opened his door to his office and allowed her to step inside.

"Let's talk in my office." He said as she smiled evilly then scowled at the receptionist. "Finally someone with a brain to talk to!" She exclaimed loudly.

This talk was long overdue.
