"(Y-Y/N)? What's going on?" Anna grumbled from under her bed covers.

"Look Anna, stop asking me questions and get up." You growled at her furiously, your eyes slitted like a cat's.

She quickly stood from her bed, fumbling with her creased shirt. You grabbed her hand and ran down the stairs. She can't run as fast as you. She stumbled and tripped, splitting her knee open.

"Oh shit." You groaned, as you slowly picked her up from the floor and continued to run with her bridal-style in your arms down the street.

You didn't notice a figure walking down the same path and painfully collided with them, dropping to the floor on your ass. "(Y/N)? Are you okay? Where'd Rick go?"

"Morty? Rick's getting supplies for me... Gun parts." You stuttered through gritted teeth and watery eyes. "I don't know when he'll be back but we can't stay at the orphanage. There's someone there, someone dangerous. They took one of my favourite guns, my sniper." You slowly picked yourself up, being careful not to drop Anna. She was a blabbering, whimpering mess.

Morty looked around, his eyes grazed your legs and then remembered something. "W-where's your p-p-portal gun?"

"I fuckin' knew I'd forgotten something... Morty, take Anna somewhere safe. In fact, take her to the hospital, get them to patch her up quickly. I'll meet you there later." You shouted behind your shoulder, darting back to the house and leaving Anna with the young boy.

"O-oh Geez, (Y/N)..." he stammered to himself.

You turned the corner towards the orphanage as a surge of heat hit your body. Orange flames had claimed the building. "Oh my fuck! My stuff!" You screamed, watching as the wooden frames fell to the floor, dust invading your eyes.

It was as good as suicide. You knew this, but to get Morty back home and Anna to proper safety you needed that portal gun and any other inventions you can take with you. You could always make another one, but now your station was destroyed and you couldn't completely rely on Rick for everything.

As soon as you entered the building, a green gooey portal opened up on the stairs.

"(Y/N), I got your-shit." Rick walked through the portal, jumping forwards before a chunk of wood violently crushed the stairs where he had previously stood.

You rushed passed him, shoving him into a wall and jumping over the hole in the stairs.

"WHAT THE *uuurp* FUCK?" You heard Rick shout up to you.

You frantically looked around your room. The once beautiful walls were now covered in ash. The bed was a pile on the floor, just grains left. You noticed your portal gun on the windowsill along with a small bag. You rushed towards the bag, picking up the portal gun and plopping it in. The gun rack was still open, so you took a few of extra guns. You swiftly opened the door to your cupboard and flung all the ammo you could find into the bag.

Just as you were about to leave the room, you heard a window smash as a figure leaped into your room, dressed head to toe in black. They wore a black mask, just like a robber. You turned quickly to try to see who it was before realising they had pulled a gun from the rack and aimed it at you. 

You winced and hissed in pain as they shot your leg, the bullet didn't go all the way through. It was stuck in there and fuck it hurt.

"RICK! HELP!" You yelled at the top of your lungs while you clutched your leg. The fire on the ground floor had risen to your room and started to burn your feet and legs while the ash blocked your lungs.

A green portal appeared underneath you, dragging you through just before the masked man could shoot you in the head. Plopping onto the floor, you gasped in agony.
