Morbid {Morty X Reader}

The Truth

(Eyepatch) Mortys POV
"Well what is it?" (Y/N) asks, her head turning to the left slightly and grins as she's waiting for me to reply.

"I... I have to be honest with you.." I say quietly, while staring into her beautiful (e/c) orbs. "I'm not your Morty." I say bluntly.

She shakes her head quickly as her voice goes up a tone. "What are you on about? This is a joke right?" I shake my head slowly while making an awkward face which shows all my teeth.

"Your real Morty took my spot, to um, deal with something.. so we just kinda swapped spots for a bit." I say quietly while moving closer to her and grabbing her waist, she jumps in response with fear glowing through her eyes. "But that doesn't change my affection for you..." I lean in closer and whisper while hugging her gently and swaying in the cool breeze.

"Yes it does." (y/n) blurts out and pushes me away from her. "You lied to me!" She shouts in my face. "How do I know you're not some creep from another dimension who is just disguised as morty?"

"Technically, it was your Morty who lied, screw him and let's get together! It sounds like a great plan doesn't it?" I say sounding like a jerk while showing her a nice smile. But before I knew it, she pushed me on the ground and said the most heart breaking sentence I'd ever hear in my lifetime.

"You're not the Morty I fell in love with!"

She screams as her voice shakes and a single salty tear falling down her cheek and landing on her jawline. I sit there in shock, my jaw sprung open wide by how surprised I am. I don't speak a word as I stand up-I don't want her to get more hurt than she already is. I storm off in the opposite direction as I start to sob quietly. I turn around one last time, I see (y/n) picking up her crutches and limping back the way we came.

Mortys POV
I shut the door behind me. (y/n) will be safe with him, she has to be. I feel like I have to trust him but at the same I have this feeling in my stomach something will go wrong.- no, pay attention to the task, assassinate Rick. My Rick.

I approach a small old fashioned bar, everyone turns and gasps before falling to their knees. "Woah-Woah, why a-are you all on your knees for? I'm just here to ask a few questions." I say calmly before looking around at everyone. "Because you're the great almighty! If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be here!" A man's voice shouts from the backside of the old bar. A shocked yet very confused expression appears on my face.

"What d-did I do which was so great?" I ask open heartedly. "I mean, psh I-I already know, I just wanna know if you guys know, yeah." I finish off while scratching the back of my neck.

Everyone looks around, waiting for someone to speak up to me - the 'great almighty'. A strange looking fellow ascends up from his knees and walks closer towards me slowly. Everyone suddenly gasps. My face scrunches up after looking at his appearance - His face, which is covered in dirt is finished off by an eyepatch and a stubby beard.

'Hm? His eyepatch looks similar to the one I'm currently wearing.' Goes through my head before he opens his mouth to speak.

"Y'all heard a this man righ here, righ?" His voice is very western and loud. Everyone, still on their knees, nods to his question. "This man is naught who ya think he is, he a criminal, he take somewan else's work and takes the crediet, do y'all think this fair?!" He turns around midway through his preach, talking to the people in the bar while gesturing to me.

"I would n-never!" I speak up. He suddenly grabs a beer bottle and smashes it in half before holding it against my neck. I scream while sweat drops drop down my face in fear.
