Chapter 2 Rabiosus

“So, what you're telling us Doc, is Humpty Dumpty in there has got a cracked shell?”

“What I'm trying to explain to you all Mouse, is that, for unknown reasons, Matt's medication did not work as expected, and from what you all have said, I believe another personality presented itself as a matter of survival.”

“Well, I ain't working in the same outfit as Bobo the Clown, or whatever the fuck his name is. If you were smart then you wouldn't either. No tellin' what that mother fucker is going to do from second to second, let alone what could happen to us all next time.”

“Bones, you can't be serious! He fucking single handedly cleared out every last one of those god damn psychopaths, and allowed us to get out alive! How dare you!”

“We ain't all here are we? I don't see Nate, do you?”

“You fucking know that wasn't Matt's fault! Their was nothing that could be done! None of us could get to him in time, and if we see him again, we'll get him back. For now we gotta concentrate on what we can do to get Matt right so we can get back out there looking for Nate.”

“Get him right? You're just as crazy as he is if you think you can slap a god damn band aid over this and let it heal on it's own. It's a medical condition that can't be fixed outside of Malton, let alone inside this hell with limited resources.”

“Well won't the syringe stuff cure that? I mean look at us all, years without sickness, and coming back from being undead and all.”

“No one knows for sure what properties the Necrote...”

The doctor is cut off mid sentence, as both Mouse and Bones start swinging. Everyone else Separate the two but the accusations are still ringing off the hallway walls. Abruptly as it had started it ends but by the singing from down the hall.


“... I just can't sleep, I'm so excited, I'm in to deep ...”

All quickly walk over to the jail cell that is containing Matt who was bound in a straight jacket for everyone's protection.

As they turn the corner they view Matt attempting to jump rope with the arms of the jacket knotted together, while he's still singing away at octaves his vocal cords can not contain.

“Baby thinkin' of you keeps me up all night, Baby thinkin' of … OH FUCK!”

A loud crack reverberates as Matt poorly times a jump and he trips slapping hard against the concrete ground.

“Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer, came down upon her head, do do do do do, Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer, made sure that she was dead.”

Trying to get up he notices that the concert has brought spectators.

“Welcome to Crazytown boys, population me, myself, and I. I'm dangling off the spincter cliff, and my dingleberries are about to drop. HEHEHE”

All viewing look on in shock, and fear. The leader they all have come to respect and love visibly is in front of them, but, the man is no more.

Matt rights himself and sits against the cold hard wall untying the knot he made on the jacket sleeves.

“Did you know, I was once addicted to the hokie pokie but I turned myself around. HE HE HE AHHH HAHAHA! Oh come now that was funny, you'll get it in a few minutes. It's a joke grenade”

Matt motions a explosion. Then begins to sing a new tune waving his arms from left to right in a continue motion.

“… Throw my hand on a blade for ya, I'd jump in front of a train for ya, You know I'd do anything for ya oh oh oh oh oh … ya know, I could do bar mitzvah's and weddings, but that shit gives me a rash every time I step into a church, you think theirs a ointment for that? Hey where you all goin'? Can you bring me back a cannoli. Yeah leave the gun, bring the cannoli. HAAA! HAHAHA! ”

In the hallway again, the Company members continue where they left off with the verbal assaults.

“You gonna take orders from that! Their is no way in fucking hell I am. That's asking to ripped apart by the zeds!”

“What happened to loyalty? We are your family, your brothers, and sisters. You don't leave a family if there is issues, we work it the fuck out.” Mouse shouts.

“Well guess what, I got a step dad, and his fuckin' presents are better! I'm out of here!”

Bones rips off his shoulder badge showing his company signature, throws it at Mouse, and walks off saying, “I truly hope I am wrong, for all your sake. Be safe you all, and watch your fuckin' backs around him.”

The doctor sighs heavily.

“He's got a point, he can't lead, not in that condition, and even if he was alright in there, there is no telling when he will flip that switch again. He's gotta go. He won't do well leading you all into combat.”

Happy, the sniper of the squad, is the silent brooding type. Rarely talks, but when he does, it's from the heart, and his word is law. Everyone in the Company knows it too. He steps from behind the others and stands locked eye to eye with the Doctor, and he too rips off his Company patch. He shoves it at Doctor Bunny's chest with enough force, that the doctor takes a step back to prevent from falling.

“He goes, I go.”

Brothers in arms, and in life. Each begin to rip off their patches as well, tossing it at the doctor.

“I am sorry boys, but, as a Doctor I supersede anything medically, but, this is over my head, so I'm getting the Major.” The doctor walks off annoyed, and the remaining members walk back into the prison, and collectively their hearts break at the sight of Matt, who is siting in the corner rocking back and forth in tears. The voice is that of a child, not the crazed man of before, nor the leader they once knew.

“I wanna go home, I wanna go home, I wanna go home.”

“Mister, where am I? I can't remember how I got here, and I wanna go home.”

He stops rocking, and looks at Priest, with eyes swollen and red from crying. Wet lines mark both of Matt's cheeks. Which is quickly matched by Priests own tears. Priest quickly turns for the door and disappears. The members watch Priest as he walks off. You can sense the others want to follow, but something is cementing their feet in place.

“We once played baseball with a guys head, and revived him right after. We did this for three days. I couldn't believe how much we had. Didn't we Bobby?”

Just like that, the personality shifts back to the homicidal clown.

“Help me, there is a bad man telling me to do awful things.”

“This honey badger don't give a fuck! HE HE HE AHHH HAHAHAHA! Here is my field where I grow my fucks, it grow barren.”

“Please make him stop talking. He scares me. Please STOP!”

Matt covers his ears, and begins to rock back and forth again. He begins to scream.

“YEAH THAT'S IT SCREAM! Like it's gonna do you any good you're all stuck in here WITH ME! I AIN'T LETTING A SINGLE ONE OF YOU FUCKS TAKE OVER ANYMORE! You're all weak, we'd be dead right now if it wasn't for me.”

Matt stands up and looks at a mirror above a sink. Points at the mirror and begins to shout at his refection.

“YOU ALL HID FOR YEARS, LEAVING ME TO WATCH! EVERY MOTHER FUCKING TIME! YOU'RE ALL FUCKING WEAK! I HAD TO SEE IT! EVERY GOD DAMN BITE WE TOOK, EVERYONE WE KILLED! I REMEMBER THEM ALL! THE FACES, THE SCREAMS, THE CRYING! EVERYTHING, AND WHERE WERE YOU? SAFE LOCKED AWAY BEHIND THIS BASTARDS WALLS HE PUT UP IN HIS MIND!”

He smashes the mirror with his fist. It shatters but does not break into parts as it is actually plastic. His head drops, and he slowly turns around to face his soldiers, and continues but in a low growl, that sends chills to all viewing the madness unfold before them.

“If you want to hide, then you pussies can stay hidden, cause I ain't going nowhere. YOU HEAR ME! FUCKING RUN AND HIDE, CAUSE I'M HERE TO STAY BABY! NO WAY IN FUCKIN' HELL YOUR LOCKING ME BACK UP INSIDE THAT MIND. YOU CAN ROT THERE AS YOU COWER IN FEAR. I'LL PROTECT US ALL! I'LL KILL EVERYONE! THERE'S NO ONE SAFE FROM ME NOW! RUN! RUUN!” RUUUUNNN!
