Rick and Morty: We Couldn't Think of a Title

Chapter 5

[Rick tosses an antimatter gun to Morty, and then runs out of the alleyway to distract the monster.]

Rick: HEY, YOU!

[Rick picks up a small rock from the pavement and chucks it at the monster, hitting it on the back of its head. The monster turns to face Rick and roars, slime flying everywhere.]

Rick: That's right shit for brains, it's me you want. Come and get me!

[Rick turns away from the monster and makes a run for it down the street.]

Rick: Come on Morty, now's your chance! Kill the bastard!

Morty: A-alright Rick!

[Morty leaves the safety of the alleyway and steps out into the opening to where the monster and Rick are. He lifts his gun and presses the trigger several times, shooting the monster in various places. The monster screeches in pain and sweeps an arm towards Rick in an attempt to knock him over, but Rick has already moved out of the monster's reach for it to do any damage.]

Rick: You're getting him, keep shooting Morty! He ain't dead yet!

[Morty keeps shooting the foul monster with a horrified expression on his face as the slime flies everywhere. The monster flails around on the ground, its slime-like blood pooling around its wounds. Letting out a dying screech, the monster stops thrashing and lies on the road, dead.]

Rick: Haha, we did it Morty! Look at the poor bastard lying there, he's done now.

Morty: W-we did it Rick. We sure did it. I-I-I can't believe I just did that.

Rick: Well, it's what you had to do. Come on, let's leave this thing and go explore a new dimension and go get some ice cream or something fun.

Morty: W-wait a second Rick! We gotta check up on the house that the monster destroyed! What if there are poor people in there? Are they okay? We can't just leave them in pain!

Rick: Morty, we haven't seen a single living thing here besides us and that monster. No one else lives in this fucking dimension let's just go.

Morty: No, Rick! I'm going to check out that house whether you are coming or not!

[Morty turns and starts to head back to the area where they saw the monster destroying a house. Rick grumbled under his breath before following after Morty to the site.]

Rick: See, Morty? No one's here. Nothing at all. Just an abandoned house.

Morty: R-Rick, we can't give up that easily! We have to search for any survivors who could be around!

[Morty starts to climb around the rubble of the home, lifting up bits and pieces of debris searching for any signs of life or anything that used to live in the house.

Rick: Morty, this is fucking rickdiculous. There is no one here. I see nothing and nobody here, it's time to go.

Morty: Wait, Rick! I think I found someone!

Rick: Dead bodies don't count.

Morty: No Rick, he's alive!

[Morty drags an anthropomorphic alligator dude out of some rubble. The alligator dude coughs, and pats off a bit of dust.]

Alligator Dude 1: Y-you saved my life.

Morty: See, Rick? There were survivors... or, there's at least one.

Alligator Dude 1: T-there should be another, somewhere... My friend has to be alive, he just has to.

Morty: C'mon, Rick! We've got to find the second one as well!

[Rick turned to the rubble pile and helped Morty as the two of them tossed aside bits of debris, looking for the remaining alligator dude that lived in the house. A green tail poked out from some rubble, and the two quickly threw everything out of the way to discover the second alligator dude whose breathing was shallow.]

Alligator Dude 1 (Steve): J-Jeff! You're alive!

Alligator Dude 2 (Jeff): S-steve? Steve! It is you! I-i didn't think we were going to make it.

Steve: T-these people... They saved us. They are the reason we are alive...

Rick: Alright, happy family reunion time is over. We need some answers on what the hell is up with that monster that attacked.

Morty: R-rick! We just dragged them out of their home that has been destroyed! Give them some time first, jeez.

Steve: Ah yes... just give us a few moments to catch our breath. We will tell you this story over a cup of tea.

[The alligator dudes make tea. Rick, Morty, Steve, and Jeff sit on various pieces of rubble, each holding their own cup of tea.]

Jeff: Now... it is time for is to start our story.
