Then Herick and Maeve entered Vought headquarters hugging each other, in the elevator Herick removed the hug and put his hand on Maggie's neck and pushed her against the wall and said:
— Give me a reason not to kill you now!
Maeve holding her neck being tightened, she spoke with a little breathlessness, know the strength of someone who took the Super Serum, it's not common, Captain America, managed to hold a helicopter from leaving, and hold Thanos' hand for few seconds.
Herick's eyes flashed a green light, and Queen Maeve with difficulty spoke:
— Because you're not like that; I can feel that you are a good person.
Herick snorted and stopped holding her, she massaged her neck and said:
— I also want your popularity to increase, after all that's everything in the company, but how can you decide that from 7 we're going to be 8 out of nowhere, is there anything that's worthy of note?
Herick spoke and replied:
— It's not just to keep these idiots busy, with one more vacancy, they'll have more people to take care of, it gives me time and gets them off my back.
Maggie was scared by the reason, if you don't want to be disturbed, with this strength he has, don't you just let him know? Why so much commotion? Maggie soon began to worry and said:
— Aren't you afraid of retaliation?
Herick spoke calmly:
— With my strength, even the president of the United States owes me respect, after all, Homelander can wipe out a city, and I can wipe out Homelander, imagine the pressure that causes; How about considering this company? It's not necessary, my attitude helps to a certain extent.
He continues saying:
— Imagine, when the first member of the 8 enters, the first to break a chain of more than 40 years, his popularity will go through the roof, the share price will skyrocket, and my confidence in all this will only rise, after all, I was the one who "had" this brilliant idea.
He gave a sinister smile and said:
— In the end, everyone wins with the matter, and we will form teams to fight crime, which increases popularity, Homelander with Profundo, Translucent with A-Trem, and to improve my popularity in a short time, me, you and who enters.
Herick laughed and said:
— Homelander's team will be called Rock Bottom, the translucent one will be called The Invisibles, and ours will be called The King and the Queens.
Maeve laughed, but someone with super hearing, who was on the bed, started crying, the Vice-Principal, who was next to her, got scared.
If Homelander fans saw this, they would lose some of their opinion, of the Homelander they know, but Herick somewhat cared about it.
The person with super hearing wanted to get out of bed, after crying a little; He wanted to get out of bed, but a middle-aged woman stopped him and said:
— You are very unstable, and damaged, darling, you can't act like this, you have to recover so you can see your fans?
Homelander who was calming down, however when he chose fans; he cuts his forearm off the bed and agrees with the vice-principal:
— Madelyn, but damn, what a shit guy is going to be a fan of the invisibles, he has to be really stupid, this guy is targeting me, fuck him, this company and everything, I just want to kill someone right now.
Madelyn was scared, and walked away, John saw what she messed up, and apologized:
- I'm sorry; I'm really scary, you know out of everyone, you're definitely the only one I wouldn't hurt, I would never hurt you!
Madelyn, who was a little scared, and had a son to take care of, of course she was going to find an excuse to get away from this monstrosity.
So she took advantage of the moment and said:
— Honey, you're feeling very upset today, so I'm going to leave you alone for a bit.
Homelander made a crying face and said:
— Please don't leave me alone, that monster is looking at me, I can't rest.
The Vice Director, very intelligent, did not hesitate and spoke quickly:
— Unfortunately I don't have superpowers, you need to recover that on your own, he's just a man, you're a god, what do you think about training? I bet you beat him, after hard training.
Inside Madelyn thought:
(How much will this help the company? Homelander training, that's genius, it will make billions! We can even make a movie with him being defeated, and needing training to defeat a villain! Because now he's lost his invincibility; we can make a groundbreaking movie out of that !)
So, the Deputy Director decided to take this rumor into account, but the most important thing for her at the moment was to get away from these freaked out guys, so she said calmly:
— While you're seriously injured, recover a little, because there's no point trying to run over everything, dear Jonh; we both know you are far superior to that.
Homelander calmed down and said:
— You can go, but come back to visit me.
Madelyn smiled, kissed his forehead and left, but Homelander continued to see her through the x-ray, she left the room and went to get her baby.
And she played with him, until he got to her office, and Homelander's eyes got red, but soon he calmed down, but he broke a part of the bed every time he heard:
— Who's Mommy's Baby?
Homelander sighed and said:
— This boy is taking my attention, I don't like him.
He got up from the bed that was already ruined and went towards his room, the smart people didn't say anything.
On the way, he met up with Herick and Maeve; and Herick laughed and said:
— Oops loser, do you need me to refresh your memory? Do you have a memory problem? If that's not the case, get out of the way because I want to pass!
Homelander instinctively moved out of the way, Herick and Maeve passed, and after seeing that they were far away, he leaned against the wall and said:
— Shit!
Herick left with a smile, but it was a kind of scary smile.
