Chapter 13: Clear Chests

A/N: Sorry for the long hiatus. It's been busy. Relationship issues, busy school load, working two jobs. Life isn't easy, eh? Anyway, please rate and comment. I appreciate every bit of it. Thanks you guys, love you all.

“MATT COME QUICK!” I hear Twilight shout, snapping me out of my daze.

“Yeah? What is it?” I ask, expecting them to say Mig is gone, or near gone.

“I think we stopped the bleeding!!” Beans yelled out in happiness.

Oh my god.

“But…” I mumbled, in pure shock.

“Yeah, we’ve been pressuring it like a sonufabitch, and trying to clean it as well. With a few drugs added in, I think it’s all working now. He just might pull through.”

“Ah, I…. He…” I couldn’t believe it. He was going to live. “Wow…”

I was in disbelief, but in a good way, I was extremely happy. Mi familia. I could still say that, my family is still alive. Tears of joy escaped and ran down my cheeks, I was on Cloud 9. Beans saw this and gave me a deep hug. I tried my best to return it, but I was in so much shock I barely could. He understood, he pulled back and smiled, patting me on the back.

I walked out of the room, smiling. But, now that I know he is going to live, I felt the need to let out my anger. Angry at him, and Twi, for running off without telling anyone. That’s what gets you killed in this world, that’s how you end up dead – by doing spontaneous things, willy nilly shit with no one knowing.

EVERYONE GET THE FUCK DOWNSTAIRS NOW” I yelled, rage filled.

They need this talking to. Shit needs to get straightened out, what the rules are, and how to be smart. Just because we have new members of this group doesn’t mean the rules and how we did things gets tossed out the window. I don’t hold much accountability for the girls, but more so for the others. But the girls needed to know how to live, how to survive. Hopefully what’s already happened has been a wake up call, to get their attention.

Everyone came downstairs, save Mig, Rarity, and Fluttershy. Flutters stayed to watch over them.

“Yo Matt what’s up?” Beans asked. “You sound pissed. Shouldn’t you-“

SHUT THE FUCK UP!” I snapped back, causing him to flinch back.

“Woah what the hell man?” He asked, obviously taken aback by my sudden burst of rage.

“I’ll tell you what the hell. It’s everyone going off and doing whatever the fuck their hearts please.” I yell, looking at a lot of them.

“It’s shooting up cars in the middle of fucking nowhere and yourselves getting blown up” I say glaring at Pancho and them. “It’s running off to zombie infested areas without telling anyone!” I glare at Twi, she averts my glare. “You guys are all fucking the rules, the guidelines to fucking survive!” I was absolutely seething.

“Now, for the most part, you girls” I was looking down at the ground, not wanting to look at any of them “You girls didn’t or don’t know the rules all that well, so I will cut you some slack. But you GOTTA know what you can and can’t do here. If you don’t, you’ll end up like Rarity or Mig upstairs…. Or worse.”

Dead silence invaded the room. No one wanted to say anything, nor did I think they could think of anything to say. I didn’t care if I scared anyone, it was for their own good, I’m trying to protect them. I want them safe.

“But you others, there’s no fucking excuse. You all know what we can and can’t do. Just because these girls show up does it mean to ignore all that we’ve done for some extra fun.” The lecture continued, I sounded more pleading at this point.

“I’m all for fun, you all know that. But in moderation. We can’t attract those things here, nor can we go out and put ourselves in risky situations for no good reason.”

“Are you sure you’re for fun? It sure doesn’t seem like it!” Rainbow shouted out of nowhere. I think it caught all of us off guard. She was annoyed.

“When we first get here the first thing you teach us is shooting a gun and killing these things! And if we’re home all you’re doing is talking zombies and planning with the others! You never have fun!” She accused me.

Welp, if there was ever a time to get hurt, and extremely agitated all over again, I guess it’s now.

“Hold up there Rainbow Dash, Ah’m sure there’s a reason for it all” AJ defended me.

“Thanks, AJ” I nodded at her, she returned it.

“There is Dash, I want to make sure you were ready in case anything happened. We never know when we might get hit by a wave of these things. If we did, and I never taught you, you know the trouble you, us, would be in?” I asked her, she annoyingly shook her head.

Damn she’s still cute when she’s pissed.

“Bad trouble.” Dramatic pause ftw. “And like I said, all I want is for you guys to be safe. I don’t want anything to happen to anyone. Not after what’s happened with my own family and loved ones…” I taper off.

“Ok I’ve heard enough of this! Why are you always mentioning them? I’ve seen, no one else has their family! What makes you so special, huh bub?” She crossed her arms and glared at me.

I didn’t know how to respond, I just took a few steps back and sat of the chair that was conveniently behind me.
“It is different. We didn’t really care for our families” Beans spoke up.

“Yeah, I hated my family. I didn’t feel much when I couldn’t find them.” Shadow stated.

“You’re telling me, my parents, and same with Mig’s, just tossed us out on the street when the zombies hit.” Pancho added in.
“Matt, he cared for his, and they cared for him..” Beans was about to tell the story.

“Beans, it’s good.” I told him, he held up his hands in defense and took a step back.

“You wanna know why I’m the way I am?” I asked no one in particular, I guess more towards Rainbow. I didn’t look up for an answer, I just told it.

*sigh*

A/N: Ok, I know, short as hell chapter. BUT HEAR ME OUT. This next chapter is probably going to be long, plus, you find out Matt's past :O
So yea, I just wanted to get something out, let you all know I'm still here! I still have big plans for this story! So stick around! :D
