Jimmy the Puppet- a Walsanderson fanfic

Blood and Tears

"Matt, please..." Brad coughed as blood poured from both of his wrists.
Matt just continued to stare blankly and to leave cuts all over Brad's body.
"Don't bother talking to him. He won't listen," James said, joy in his eyes at the sight of blood.
"That's enough, Matt. Leave him to bleed out," James ordered. Matt turned to Barry, lifted his left wrist, and sliced it open. Barry was able to hold back his scream, with his teeth gritted and fists clenched.
"You monster," he spat at James, "You're going to use Matt to kill all of us, destroy Three Days Grace, and probably run away with Matt just because Neil's a better friend and drummer than you?"
"Yes," James said simply, a bored tone in his voice.
"Pathetic," Barry snarled.
Matt left cuts all over Barry in the same pattern he had on Brad. He was about to turn around to Dani when he suddenly cried out, "Neil!"
The puppet was in flames.
......
Dani had been conscious longer than Neil had, but pretended to still be out so he could work at the ropes around him without anyone noticing. After he had untied the rope, he carefully snuck over to the puppet, which was behind James. James was too busy watching the bloodbath he was controlling.
Brad and Barry had noticed, of course, but didn't say anything, silently hoping Dani would succeed.
He took out his lighter and lit the puppet, and Matt turned around and cried for Neil.
......
All his feelings for Neil were back in an instant. He rushed over to Neil and cut the ropes around him, before hugging him and crying into his shoulder.
"I love you... I'm so sorry..." he cried.
James ran over to them, anger flaring in his eyes.
Dani held him back and threw him against the wall. Dani held his hand against his mouth and held him firmly to the wall. "Try anything and I'll burn your tongue out."
Brad and Barry both displayed shock at the sudden showing of violence in Dani. They were still pinned to the wall, barely conscious from the lack of blood.
"Where's the book," Dani spat.
"In my jacket..."
"Give it to me. Now."
James took the book out from the inside of his jacket and gave it to Dani.
Dani flipped it open to the healing spells.
Matt was still crying into Neil's shoulder. "Alright, Matt, we should help Brad and Barry," Neil said and rubbed Matt's back. Matt nodded and they turned to Brad and Barry, who were being healed by Dani, repeating words from the book.
The cuts closed and they were both brought back into full consciousness. They were still pinned against the wall, and blood was still everywhere, but they were healed.
James was still sitting against the wall, trembling.
Matt watched blankly.
"Th-the love sp-spell is still on h-his jacket," James stuttered, "He l-loves both Ne-Neil and I."
"He doesn't love you, he's forced to say he does," Neil stated. "Matt, can I borrow your jacket?"
"Sure, Neil," Matt replied. He shrugged the jacket off of his shoulders and handed it to Neil. When Neil tried to put it on, it wad too big for him, and he intentionally ripped it.
Matt's eyes lost the blank quality and shined their beautiful blue again. He held himself the way he used to. He was himself again.
"I- I did this...?" he asked, seeing the mess of blood and tangle of ropes.
No one knew how to answer that, which was answer enough for Matt.
He broke down, falling to the floor and crying. "No..."
