Chapter 70 - Use your head!

"Don't think about leaving before answering our questions son!" stated Mary as she held her son's shoulder tightly.

Matt sighed as he looked at the group of Married women surrounding him and thought "Marriage is such a drag!"

"Where are they going?"

"What are they trying to do?"

"Are you taking all of them to zombie hunting?"

One after another he was barraged with a number of questions by the women surrounding him.

"Wait wait wait!! At least let me answer the questions! I am taking the men with me to clear the hotel, so yes we will be zombie hunting. I want every man to be able to take out 2 to 3 zombie on their own without my help so it will be like training for them." stated Matt

"Then what about us Matt? You aren't thinking of making us stay in the room all the time to protect us are you?" asked Maria.

"Yeah, sorry! That's not possible. In the Apocalypse, there is nothing such as weak women! Even if you decide to stay inside the safe zones you must know how to protect yourselves so that in the time of the need they could be useful. I will be helping you all as well but first I need to make sure that every man in the group is perfectly able to deal with few zombies only after that will I come to you all." Matt started as he stood up from his seat and walked away from the living room getting out of the room.

Outside of the VVIP Room 1, all the men were standing there waiting for Matt and as he came out of there they sighed in relief thinking that Matt had handled it well but Matt knew that even after him answering there questions the women were still pissed at the men running away like that so they will be handled pretty well after this incursion of there. S other than Ethan who wasn't in a relationship, every man was getting his ass whooped by their other half and as he thought about that Matt couldn't help as a big smile formed on his face.

"What are you smiling about Matt?" asked Paul.

"Nothing just remembering a joke of a friend that's all" replied Matt as he walked forward not intending to continue the conversation and getting caught in his lie.

"We will start on the 9th floor first! I will use the Master card to open the doors of the rooms and then we will check if they are any zombies or not. Make sure to keep your mouth close so that no zombie blood gets in your mouth. We don't know if you would really become a zombie after that but we shouldn't be taking a risk now should we" Matt said as he looked towards all the men following behind him.

Getting down from the stairs to the 9th floor was VIP floor and it only had 5 rooms making it overall easier than checking 10 rooms, but the chances of getting jumped by a zombie in these rooms become high as the rooms are so big that you don't know where the zombies are hiding!

Matt swiped his Master card on the door of VIP Room 1 and opened it only to see that the lights were off and the passageway from the door towards the living room was dark making it impossible to see with the naked eye.

"So who wants to be the first one to check the VIP Room 1!?" asked Matt as he looked around himself, seeing the expression of fear and trepidation on the guys around him Matt smiled not because he liked the expression on their face but because of the reason behind the expressions. Matt was happy that none of them directly said yes and became ready to enter the room just to prove themselves.

He has met a lot of such people who took on such a dangerous task just to prove themselves and then didn't make it alive from those jobs in his past life. He didn't want any of them to behave like that and lose their life.

"I will go!" came a voice from behind Matt who was just feeling happy in bad mood making his expression turn dark.

Matt turned his head to see Ethan dropping his fire axe and flexing his shoulder and the rest of the body ready to use his transformation.

Matt's expression changed and he smiled once again when he saw that Ethan wasn't an idiot taking on the dangerous job to prove himself but he was an intelligent man using all of his abilities to take care of a situation.

"Don't use Ethan! Not now! If you want to, you can use the next room to use your transformation but I have something important to teach the others so you should pick up your weapon and pay attention as well!" Matt said

Ethan stopped his transformation and picked up the axe ready to listen to Matt's advice.

"In cases such as this where your visibility is compromised don't be an idiot and enter but instead use your brain to think of a solution which will help your situation. Now we are here to check if the room has any zombie's or not but we can't enter the room since there is no light so we won't be entering the room thinking that if we can't see then the zombies can't see because even if that's true those bastards won't hesitate to start fighting and eating among themselves. So instead of taking that risk, we will use the knowledge of zombies that we have with ourselves, and what are those?" Matt asked as he looked towards the men around him for answers.

Neither Paul nor Jonathan or Jacob or Wade knew the answer to that question as the knowledge they had was from the movies and such which they didn't know was true or not.

"Zombies are idiots! They only care about eating us and don't know anything else" replied Mike

"Yes that's correct but what else?" asked Matt

"Zombies are easily attracted to the sound and smell of blood!" Ethan replied

"Yes! That's the answer I was looking for"
