Morty was running. From what he couldn't tell, but he knew he had to keep running.
Then there was a voice. "Your time is up... Goodbye Morty..."
Morty woke up with a start.
'Wow, what a weird dream' he thought.
'Wait what time is it?'
The clock read 10:02.
"Oh, shit I overslept!" He exclaimed.
The day was currently Saturday. It was also the day he was invited to go to the mall with his friends.
So he rushed to get everything done. Oddly enough Rick wasn't home that day.
'Probably getting some groceries or something' Morty thought to himself sarcastically.
So he got on his bike and went to the mall.
"I'm sorry! I'm late I know", he said when he got there.
"It's alright. You're not the only one you know", Sunset told Morty.
He soon realized they were the only ones out of their group to be there.
"Where's everybody else?" he asked.
"Well, Rainbow Dash said she'd be a little late. Mostly because she had practice today. Rarity said the same thing that she'd be late because she had some orders to finish. Applejack said she had chores and Fluttershy said she's busy at the animal shelter so she won't be able to come today."
"Oh..." Morty said a little disappointed.
Mainly to cheer him up Sunset said " Hey I know. Why don't we play at the arcade to pass some time?"
"But I didn't bring any money," Morty said.
"Don't worry. I'll pay for it," Sunset said.
most emotionless reaction to what i presume is a nightmare
an interesting idea ruined by poor execution and too short chapters to really flesh it out as well as it should be. It feels more like a basic draft than an actual story. There aren't enough moments with Rick to really show him as that much neglectful and the way you skim through things isn't the way it should be done. If you aren't at the level for longer chapters with more content, try a more simpler fanfic idea.
