My Grandpa is a crazy scientist
So this idea came while I was watching the new Rick and Morty season.
What if Clementine was Rick's granddaughter? And when the dead starts walking, will the rest of the Smith family be able to survive from a mess that Rick might or might not be responsible for?
Only time will tell.
So here's the first chapter.
Chapter 1- The beginning of a rickery journey.
Beth Sanchez, was not having a good day, the reason of her shitty day was because, one of her horse patients did not survived the operation, her co-worker tried to flirt with her again. But the biggest aspect of her bad day was because, at the moment she was being chased by a group of undead people. It all happened randomly (kinda like the Night of the living dead movie) they just burst into the veterinary and ate a lot of people (including the horse Beth was operating) and right now she was driving at full speed towards her house, she needed to make sure that her kids and her dad were safe (But mostly her kids).
When she finally got home she was relieved to see that her house was still intact, she quickly opened the front door and locked it t prevent any undead from breaking in.
Once she was inside she could hear some noise coming from the kitchen.
"Dad, Summers, Morty where are you?" Beth called.
"We're here mom." Said her teenage daughter.
The voice was coming from the kitchen and when Beth entered it, she saw her two children stuffing bags with canned food and other tools.
Beth quickly embraced her kids "Oh thank god, I thought I'd lost all of you." Beth sai relieved.
"Aw jeez mom, I'm so glad to see you too." Morty said.
But then Beth noticed that her dad was no were to be found "Wait a minute where's dad?"
"Grandpa Rick is on the garage working on something, he told us to grab whatever we can and put it on the back of the space ship." Summers explained.
Beth was not entirely convinced "You two keep packing up, I'm gonna go talk to dad." She said "And don't forget to pack up on some family photos." Beth added.
Beth went downstairs and found her dad Rick Sanchez the smartest man on the world (If not the universe). Rick too was packing bags, mostly with sci-fi type weapons, some tools and booze.
"Dad what the hell is going on out there?" Beth asked.
Rick didn't answered the question he simply threw an empty bag at her "No time to explain, get to your room and pack (burp) whatever you can." Beth was about to protest "Do it now! It's just a matter on time before (burp) those things find out where we are!" Rick ordered.
Beth quickly ran to her room and filled her bag with family pictures, clothes and pepper spray (Just in case).
Once she was done packing, she went back to the garage, Morty and Summers were already loadind the back of the ship with bags, while Rick was starting the ship engine.
"Everyone, get in the goddamn ship! We need to be quick if we want to get Jerry!" Rick ordered.
They all got inside the ship (just when the walkers were starting to break in).
They quickly found Jerry's apartment (Jerry was Beth's divorced husband) and it only took one second to find him, he was using a chair as a shield trying to defend himself from three (He looked like a complete dumbass). Rick rolled his eyes at the ridiculous scenery, he pulled out his laser gun and shoot the three walkers in the head.
"Jerry get in!" Rick shouted.
Jerry quickly ran to the ship and got in it.
"Oh thank god you guys came, for a moment there I actually thought that you guys had left me to die." Jerry said with a nervous chuckle.
"We would never abandon you dad, I'm glad that you're alive." Morty said happy to see his dad "y-you know it was actually Rick's idea to come and get you." He informed
"Really? Wow that's… very thoughtfull coming from you Rick." Jerry said sounding impressed
But Rick was having none of it "Don't think that I'm gonna go soft on you Jerry, the only reason that I came to pick you up, it's just in case we get surrounded by those thinks." Rick started to explain.
Jerry was confused "What do you mean?"
"So we can tie you to a tree and leave you as bait while we run away." Rick said "We'll use you as a last resource."
Any hope of friendliness coming from Rick to Jerry was destroyed "OK… Let's hope that doesn't happen." He said nervous.
"Guys, look down!" Summers said looking down.
Under the flying ship there was a city drowned in chaos, people screaming and dying, hordes of undead chasing after people, cars burning, and people fighting each other over supplies (you know typical apocalypse stuff), there were some people that the family recognized. There was principal Vagina (no relation) who was being chased by the undead he was also screaming and that attracted more undead.
There was Mr Goldenfold (Morty's math teacher) who was armed with two machine guns and blasting everything that was in front of him while screaming like Rambo.
And then they saw… Jessica, who was surrounded by undead and pleading for help.
"Holy crap Rick, Jessica is surrounded, w-we gotta help her!" Morty said.
Just then Jessica got bitten on the neck, and the other dead got on top of her.
"NOO JESSICA!" Morty shouted.
"Sorry Morty but it looks like that your "girlfriend" is a little DEAD on the tracks." Rick said laughing at his own joke.
But Morty was not laughing "That does it Rick! You better start explaining right now!"
Rick's face became serious "Explain what Morty? You (burp) got something to say?"
"The dead are rising from the grave Rick, just out of the blue with no warning! This has your name written all over it!" Morty accused.
"Morty I had nothing to do with this, why would I ever do this? There's no reason for it." Rick said.
"No offense Rick but you were capable of turning the entire world into cronenberg creatures." Morty said.
"Ok, first of all that accident was entirely your fault, I warned you about it, but NOOO you just wanted to get on Jessica's panties." Rick said.
Beth looked confused "What are you guys talking about?" Beth asked.
"It's nothing Beth." Rick said before continuing "Besides I don't even know how to contaminate the wold like this. I mean if I do a research I'm sure that I could figure it out, but at the moment I don't know."
"Then how did this happened?" Summers asked.
"I don't know, maybe some Rick from the citadel infected the wold just for a laugh, but either way, I got a plan." Rick said.
"You do?" Morty asked
"Yeah my plan is we teleport ourselves to the citadel of Ricks and I'll try to work on a cure." Rick explained.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's get going" Jerry said.
"Not now Jerry, right now we're heading towards Georgia." Rick said.
The family was confused but Morty seemed to know why "We're going to get Clementine aren't we?" He asked.
"Of course Morty, I would never leave her." Rick said.
"God I almost forgot about my sister and my little niece… I mean Diana was always more successful than me." Beth said with a hint of jealousy on her voice "Plus she was always your favorite." She said crossing her arms.
Rick let out an annoyed sigh "Don't give me any of that crap Beth! When I left home I left her too, the difference between you too is that she choose to forgive me and to move on with her life, While you clearly haven't forgave me and you're still trying to impress me when you clearly don't have to. Plus she doesn't get drunk on wine when Clementine is on the house and she's a surgeon for actual humans and not just some stupid horses." Rick said "Oh and guess what? Her husband has a good job as a carpenter and doesn't need to be asking for money to his OWN daughter. Oh I also forgot to mention that they didn't "made" Clementine on PROM NIGHT. Isn't that right JERRY?" Rick added.
Both Beth and Jerry were glaring at Rick "First of all dad I AM an actual surgeon, secondly horses are just as important as any other living creature, thirdly,,, I could have been a human surgeon, but I had Beth to take care of." Beth said.
Summers glared and crossed her arms at her mother's comment.
"Yeah and do you know how hard it is to find a GOOD job Rick?" Jerry asked angrily.
Rick just laughed at their poor excuses "AH! You still could have been an ACTUAL surgeon if you had spent more time with your sister like I told you too." She told Beth, he then turned to Jerry "And if you had spent more time with Ed then you might have had a good job."
Morty realized where this was going "Look can we just go get Clementine, so we can go to the citadel so you can fix this mess Rick?" Morty said trying to end the argument.
"Yeah that would be a great idea, I'm actually kinda like happy to see Clem." Summers said.
"Alright bu-(burp) buckle up, we'll be there in about 15 seconds." Rick said before pressing a button that changed the ship's normal speed into super speed.
They arrived at Clem's house in exactly 15 seconds (literally).
Every one but Rick were perplex by how fast they had arrived at Georgia.
"Holy crap rick, I-I didn't know that you literally meant 15 seconds." Morty said.
"Morty, this ship was built to run the equivalent of what would take any other rocket light years to get to. Remember bird person's wedding, if we had taken any other rocket it would take us light years to get there, but we arrived in like an hour. Hell I could actually get to Georgia in like 5 seconds, but that would damage earth's rotation." Rick explained "But anyway, right about now Clementine's house is right beneath us, we're gotta get in get Clementine, Diana and Ed, then we all get back to the ship and head for the citadel of Ricks so I can try to fix this fucking mess."
With that Rick parked his ship on the house's backyard.
The house was your typical good neighbor's hood house, the house had 2 floors and the backyard had a pool and a tree house.
"Wow they have a really nice house." Jerry commented.
"Yeah, see that tree house Jerry? Ed built it himself, and that Jerry is just one tiny little example on how you could have been a better husband, father or just a really cool guy in general if you had spent more time with Ed like I told you to." Rick said.
Jerry was about to protest but Morty got in between "Can we just do what just do what we came here to do, before those things outside the fence realize that we're here!"
"You're right Morty. Alright everybody listen up!" Rick called out "Let's divide ourselves in two groups, Jerry and Summers you two look in the yard, make sure you two check out the tree house."
"Got it grandpa Rick. Come on dad stop making that jealous look" Summers said.
While Summers and Jerry went on to check out the tree house. Rick continued "Ok while they do that, we're checking out the house." Rick said.
There was a glass door that lead inside the house, when they opened the door they encountered a body of a woman, she was fully dead and there was a pool of blood stains on the floor.
Rick inspected the corpse. "It´s not Diana and by the looks of it, it looks like her brain were bashed in."
"Aw jeez there's so much blood." Morty said horrified.
Rick rolled his eyes at Morty's comment "Pff, really Morty, you call this too much blood Morty? That's rich coming from someone who purged and entire mob, by breaking their necks and blasting them all to pieces, you were literally swimming on those peasants blood."
"I-I was on the effects of that chocolate bar that amplifies a person's urge to purge! You told me that yourself Rick… The chocolate was a boast for purging, right Rick?" Morty asked having doubts on what Rick said that time.
The chocolate was in fact purge free, but Morty didn't need to know that.
"Oh yeah Morty, totally," Rick lied "But anyway, Beth you go check upstairs while me and Morty will check the kitchen and the rest of the living room." Rick ordered.
With that Beth went on to check the second floor while Morty checked the kitchen.
While Rick was checking the rest of the living room.
While checking on it Rick realized that the walls were decorated with family pictures, most of them Rick remembered very well.
There was a picture of Beth and Diana on their senior years, they were both hugging each other Rick couldn't even see no signs of jealousy coming from Beth.
There was another picture of Diana and Ed marriage, it was a group photo where rick and the rest were present, including a younger Summers and a baby Morty.
There was a picture of the day were Clementine was born, where a newborn Clementine was resting peacefully on Rick's arms and rick had the most sober and genuine smile ever.
Another picture of a younger Morty, Summers and Clementine playing soccer on Beth's backyard, they were just chilling out and having fun, there no signs of the family drama that was going around Jerry's house.
There was a picture of Clementine's first adventure with Rick and Morty, were they visited a dimension were everything was about baseball.
And lastly there was the most recent photo taken by the family, It was a group photo on a restaurant and the family were celebrating Rick's birthday everybody was happy and celebrating, this was about the time were Clementine started to wear her dad's hat, Rick always found that hat pretty cool.
Rick smiled at the good memories, he just wish that he had been more present for both Diana and Beth.
"Rick I-I found something." Morty called.
"What did you found Morty?" Rick asked.
"It's a notification left by aunt Diana for a babysitter." Morty explained showing the notification paper to Rick.
Rick looked at the dead woman "So I'm guessing that's her."
Just then Beth appeared "Dad, Clementine isn't upstairs and there were no signs of either her or Diana." Beth said "What did you two found?" Beth asked.
"Well, besides some family pictures, we found out that Diana and Ed must of left for work and left Clementine with a babysitter, and it's not hard to figure out where she is." Rick said pointing at the corpse "And according to this notification they went to work at Savannah."
"Well at least we know where they are, but there's not a clue of where Clementine might be." Beth said.
Morty then noticed something "Hey there's an answering machine on that table." Morty said walking towards the machine "Hey Rick look at this, there are three messages that were played pretty recently." Morty informed.
"Well wh-(burp) what are you waiting for Morty? Play the goddamn messages!" Rick shouted.
"Alright, just give me a second jeez" Morty said.
Morty pressed the button and the first message started playing.
"Hey Sandra, this is Diana we're still in Savannah. Ed had a little incident with some crazy guy near the hotel so we had to get him back to the ER and have him checked out. Anyway he's not felling well enough to drive back tonight so we're staying for an extra day. Thanks so much for looking after Clementine and I promise we'll be back in time before your spring break."
"Well she sounds fine in this message." Rick said.
"B-but what does she mean by uncle Ed being attack by some crazy guy?" Morty asked.
"Oh god dad, do you think that he was… attacked by those things?" Beth asked.
"W-we don't know anything yet." Rick said and by his voice tone it was clear that he was getting nervous "Play the next message Morty."
Morty nodded and clicked on the button.
But in these message things something must have been wrong, by the way Diana was speaking.
"Oh my god finally!I don't know if have been trying to reach us, but all the cars are getting dropped, they are not letting us leave and aren't telling us anything about Atlanta. Please, please… just leave the city and take Clementine with you back to Marietta. I've got to get back to the hospital. Please let me know that you're safe."
Anxiety was starting to build up inside the trio, Morty quickly played the third and final message.
And this time Diana's voice was full of panic and they could hear police sirens and screams on the background.
"Clementine? Baby, if you can hear this, call grandpa Rick, the number is on the table's drawer. We love you. We love you we love y-"
The trio were shocked by the last message, but no one looked more shocked than Rick. He grabbed a framed picture of Clementine, Diana and Ed, he took it out of the frame and put it on his jacket pocket.
"Dad are you alright?" Beth asked concern.
Rick didn't answered the question "Let's go. Maybe Jerry and summers found something." Rick said, his voice lacked any emotion.
When they got outside Rick took of his flask, leaned to the tree and started drinking vodka. Just the thought of her daughter suffering and the fact that he wasn't present, hurt him deeply.
While that was going on, Summers and Jerry had finished looking on the yard "So your back, did you guys found anything inside?" Jerry asked.
"Yeah and what's wrong with grandpa Rick?" Summers asked looking at Rick who was still drinking.
"Well, we found out that Ed and Diana are in Savannah and left Clementine with a babysitter." Beth explained.
Just then summers noticed the corpse "Oh my god! Is that her?"
"Yeah it Is, jeez Summers I mean you've seen way worst, you don't have to freak out." Morty said "Oh and we also found an answering machine, with three messages that aunt Diana had recently sent." Morty explained.
"So what did they said?" Summers asked.
Beth frowned at the question "It was just... awful." Beth said trying to hold back tears.
"Oh god no." Summers said afraid of the worst, her and Diana always have had a good relationship.
"So does that mean that Diana and Ed are... you know kicking the bucket?" Jerry stupidly asked.
Before Beth could answer Rick got up and walked towards the group with an angry expression.
"Alright, first of all you don't know a fucking thing JERRY. In fact none of us know. They might be alive, dead or walking around and chewing everything alive. But right now getting Clementine is going to be our main priority, then we'll go to Savannah and find out what happened to Diana and Ed. But until we find out, none of us are going to the citadel." Rick said.
"Rick you know I care about Clementine, but she could be anywhere." Morty said.
"Yeah and I also found empty packs of chips, apple left overs and some empty water bottles, I think Clementine might have been hiding on that tree house for days, those things can't climb" Summers informed.
"That's smart." Rick commented proud of her granddaughter "But anyway, I know a way to find Clementine, we need to look at the surveillance footage." Rick said while taking out his space phone "And before all of you ask, yes I installed secret cameras around and in the house and also yes I installed them on our house too." Rick added.
Jerry crossed his arms and glared at Rick "Why haven't you told us about cameras in our house."
"Because I knew you would moan and bitch about it Jerry." Rick said "I also installed them in case alien bureaucrats invade our home."
"We'll talk about that later dad, but right now just play the footage" Beth said with a small glare.
With that rick played the footage.
The footage didn't had any sound but the footage started with Clementine climbing down the tree house with a hammer on her hand, later on the footage they found out that Clementine gave the hammer to an Afro American man, and they found out that the same man was the one that crushed that zombie's head, after that Clementine and the man had a small conversation before both of them calmly walked out of the house.
The group didn't know what to think about this footage.
"Well at least we know that she's safe." Summers said relieved.
"But what if that man kidnapped Clementine?" Jerry asked.
Rick rolled his eyes at Jerry's stupidity "Oh yeah Jerry. Because he's totally grabbing Clementine and taking her away. My guess is that the guy found her alone and he just couldn't leave her there, I mean he looks decent enough." Rick said.
"Now we know what happened to her Rick, but we still don't know WHERE she is Rick." Morty said.
"We'll now soon Morty, when Clementine was born I planted a tracking device on her just in case she got kidnapped." Rick said grabbing his phone and going to the tracking chip app. But then Rick turned to the group and saw that all of them had a look of surprise and shock "What?" Rick asked.
"Y-you did what Rick!?" Morty asked.
"Oh my god, do you know how dangerous that is!?" Summers protested.
"Do you know people can get cancer with that?" Jerry asked.
"Did either Diana or Ed knew about this?" Beth asked.
Rick let out a frustrated sigh "Look I planted a microscopic tracking device and plated on her arm with a syringe, it didn't hurt her and she didn't cried. Secondly no, Diana and Ed didn't know about any of it, because I knew your sister would never allow it, and thirdly the tracking devise doesn't generate cancer, alright Jerry I design and built it myself."
Jerry wasn't convinced "How can you be so sure?"
"Because I panted the same type of device on Morty and Summers and as you can see they are perfectly healthy." Rick said.
"WHAT!?" Both Morty and Summers said in union.
"Dad you are removing those devices has soon as we get to the citadel!" Beth hissed.
"Fine whatever, let's just see where Clementine is " Rick said pressing the tracking app "Hmm her status is fine and it looks like she is on some store in Macon." Rick said "Well there's nothing more for us to do here, let's go to the ship, go to Macon and get Clementine." Rick ordered.
With that the family got into the ship and set rout to Macon.
While they were flying to Macon Morty had a question.
"Hey Rick." Morty asked.
"What is it Morty?" Rick asked.
"Why have I never saw a Clementine at the citadel?" Morty asked.
"Because they are extremely rare and they are very smart like my level smart, besides our Clementien there are only four reported Clementines, and the Ricks who have them don't want to put them in danger." Rick said "Unlike her there are thousands of versions of you Morty."
"W-wow that's cool I guess." Morty said not sure what to think about it."
Shortly the family arrived at Macon. The streets were filled with undead.
"Aw jeez." Morty said.
"Wow this world is going to shit." Rick commented "Kinda like our original world, ain't that right Morty? AH AH HA!" Rick said laughing at his own joke.
Rick stopped when he realized that no one was laughing "Anyway, according to the tracking app, Clementine is inside that general store, and by the looks of it, it looks like that she's not alone."
"But how are we gonna get in, those things are everywhere?" Jerry asked.
"Look there's a back door at the store with a parking lot, there are even some cars." Summers said pointing at the parking lot.
"Nice going Summers." Rick praised.
With that Rick parked his ship alongside the other cars.
They opened the door and got inside the store.
Inside there were people in it, they were looking at Rick and his family with a mix of suspicion and shock.
A long haired woman came to them glaring and with her arms grossed "Where the hell, did you people come from?"
"Relax lady, we came from the backdoor, you people really need to lock doors, I mean anyone could enter." Rick said.
The woman wasn't convinced "Why are you here?"
Before Rick could answer, the small voice of a little girl was heard "Grandpa Rick?"
Rick turned around, and there she was, sitting on a chair with her golden eyes and her baseball cap.
It was Clementine.
Clementine quickly got out of the chair and ran towards Rick.
Rick hugged his granddaughter "Oh god sweetie, I'm so glad that you're alright." Rick said with a smile.
"I'm so happy to see you grandpa!" Clementine happily said "Morty! I missed you!" Clementine said hugging Morty.
"Aw jeez, I missed you too Clem, we all did." Morty said hugging Clementine.
"So your Clementine's grandfather." Asked the man who had taken Clementine.
Rick's expression changed from happy to suspicious "So you're the guy that took my granddaughter, what's your story, what's your background?"
"Aw jeez Rick that's kinda racist." Morty said.
"It's not racist Morty, it's called being careful" Rick said.
"I'm Lee, I saw your granddaughter, alone on that house and I just couldn't leave her there." Lee explained "I used to be a teacher at the UGA."
"Lee is nice grandpa he helped me." Clementine said.
Rick didn't seemed fully convinced but, he looked calmer "Alright I believe in my granddaughter's word, you're off the hook… for now."
"So you're Clementine's grandpa uh? You do fit the description." A man with a furry mustache and redneck accent said.
"And who are you?" Rick asked.
"I'm Kenny, these here are my wife Katjaa and my son Duck." He said introducing his family.
"I'm Rick, these are my grandchildren Morty, Summers and you already know Clementine, my daughter Beth, and that other asshole is my daughters ex boyfriend Jerry." Rick introduced.
"Wait a minute, are you Rick Sanchez?" Asked a fat blonde guy.
"Who's asking?" Rick asked.
"I'm Doug, I'm a big fan of you sir." Doug said excited.
"Wait a minute, Rick Sanchez? As in the man who saved the world from those giant heads that could change the weather, that was the best story that I had ever covered." A woman with a gun said "My name is Carley by the way MR Sanchez."
Rick didn't seemed very impressed that people knew who he was, I mean he did saved the world in more than one occasion (with a tiny bit of help from Morty). He then noticed an old man sitting on the floor, with the black haired woman that Rick had spoken with. "What's the deal with that guy?"
The old man glared at Rick but he didn't answer "This is my dad Larry, he has a heart condition, he takes nitroglycerin taps pretty often, before you came we were trying to find a way to open the pharmacy door." The woman explained "I'm Lilly by the way."
"Holy crap Rick, w-we need to help him." Morty said.
"No Morty, this is none of our business, so just grab Clementine and let's get outta here." Rick ordered.
"Dad, we can't just leave an old man to die from an heard attack." Beth said glaring at his father.
"We can't go." Clementine intervened "Lee is my friend, he's nice grandpa. We can't leave him behind."
"I'm sorry sweetie but we're (burp) in a lot of hurry." Rick said.
"Please grandpa Rick." Clementine pleaded to Rick while looking at him giving the sad puppy yes.
They were highly effective "Come on Clem don't give me that look."
But Clementine just kept giving him the sad eyes.
"Aw. Can you really say no to those eyes grandpa?" Summers asked.
With that Rick let out a frustrated sigh "Alright fine! We'll get that big nosed guy his stupid medicine, but after we get to a safe place we're going. Would tat make you happy?" Rick asked Lilly.
"Yes! Thank you so much." Lilly thanked.
"Don't thank me, thank my granddaughter, I'm only doing this because she asked me." Rick said "But before that we're gonna need an escape plan. Are those two cars outside with fuel?" Rick asked.
"No but I got some gallons of fuel." Said an Asian guy.
"Then go filled them up Chinese guy." Rick ordered.
"I'm Korean and my name is Glenn." Glenn said glaring a bit.
"Whatever, just get to it!" Rick said.
With that Glenn went on to fill the cars.
"So where's this pharmacy door?" Rick asked.
"I can show you where it is, but we don't have a key to open it." Lee told Rick.
"Just leave it to me. I'll hve that door open in 5 seconds." Rick said "Summers keep an eye on Clementine." Rick added.
"Gotcha grandpa Rick." Summers said.
Lee lead Rick, Lilly and Morty to the pharmacy door. It was a big metal door.
But this was no challenge for Rick Sanchez.
Rick went for his coat's pocket and took out a metal key that was glowing red.
"Holy crap Rick. I-Is that a master key?" Morty asked.
Rick rolled his eyes at the question "No Morty, it's a butt plug that I pullet it out of my ass! What do you think it is!"
"Aw jeez Rick. You don't have to be a dick about it." Morty said glaring at Rick.
Lee was confused "What's that?"
"It's a master key, it can open any type of door." Rick said.
Rick inserted the key into the keyhole and the door automatically opened, but as soon as the door was open, an alarm went on.
"Oh shit!" Lee cursed.
"Aw jeez!" Morty said.
"That goddamn thing is a fucking dinner's bell! Why didn't you told me that there was an alarm!" Rick shouted.
"We didn't knew!" Lilly said.
"Whatever, just grab what you came for, and do it quickly those things are gonna star to break in any second now!" Rick ordered.
With that Lee and Lilly went inside the pharmacy and grabbed whatever they could.
Outside the general store, the alarm could be heard which meant that the undead could hear it too, they all walked towards the store like moths to a flame, banging on the doors and windows, trying to bust them open.
Inside the store the group was preparing to evacuate.
Lee was checking on Clementine, Carley was reloading her gun, Katjaa was checking on Duck and Lilly was checking on her dad.
"Glenn we need to fill up the tanks and get everybody out!" Rick yelled.
"I'll go with Glenn, I need to get my family outta here!" Kenny said.
"I need to get my dad out!" Lilly said.
"I don't plan on babysitting!" Kenny answered back "Lee I'm gonna need that axe in case I run into one of them!" Kenny called out.
"Here!" Lee said before trowing the fireman axe at Kenny.
"Jerry, take Beth and Summers outta here, I'll be there in a minute!" Rick shouted.
Jerry nodded and took Summers and Beth out of the store alongside Glenn, Kenny and his family and Lilly and her dad.
While that was happening, the undead were banging on the door trying to bust it open. Doug, Carley and Rick were trying to keep the door shut.
"Keep away from the windows." Lee said to Clementine before joining the group that was holding the door.
"Hey! I should be the one telling her that!" Rick said angrily.
Lee ignores the comment. The dead kept banging on the door and on the windows.
"Lee, if we don't make it trough this. I just wanted to let you know that I think you're a great guy." Doug told Lee.
"Gee thanks Doug." Lee said not knowing how to react to what Doug said.
"And mister Sanchez, in case the worst happens, I would like to say that it was an honor to met you sir." Doug said to his idol.
"Wow, thanks. Uh… Sorry I forgot about your name." Rick said.
"Doug if we don't make it trough this, I just wanted to say that..." Carley tried to said, but a banging on the door stopped her.
"You wanted to say what?" Doug asked.
"I wanted to say..." Carley tried to say again.
The the undead broke a window. Doug ducked before Carley pulled out a gun and shoot three dead people that were breaking in.
"You two, get out me and Rick will barricade the door." Lee said.
But the dead just kept banging on the door, they needed something stronger.
"Clementine sweetie, can you try to find something strong that we can use to barricade this door!" Rick said "Morty you go with her." Rick added.
Both Clementine and Morty started looking.
After a while the undead were getting closer to busting the door open.
"Have any of you found something yet?" Rick asked.
"Nothing… Oh wait." Clementine suddenly remembered.
After a few seconds Clementine returned with a walking stick. Lee grabbed it and stuck it between the door handle.
Then two people screamed.
"I'm out of ammo! I can't reach my purse!" Carley screamed trying to reach her purse while a dead guy was grabbing her leg.
"Help me!" Doug screamed.
Doug was being grabbed by multiple undead hands that were sticking out of a barricaded window. It would be a matter of seconds before the window would break.
"Go help Carley, I'll go get the other guy!" Rick said to Lee.
Lee threw an ammo cartridge to Carley, which she used it to kill the dead guy in front of her and the other that was grabbing her leg.
While that was going on Rick tried to pull Doug form the hands of the undead, but he needed help.
"Morty help me out!" Rick called out.
Whit the help of Morty, Rick was able to pull Doug from the walker hands.
"Oh thank god." Doug said.
Suddenly a door was kicked open. It was Kenny.
"Everybody, let's move out!" Kenny called for the, to get into the cars.
Doug and Carley immediately left the store.
Before the rest could do the same, Clementine screamed.
A dead woman was grabbing her leg.
Rick pulled out his laser gun and shoot the woman's arm of, Lee stomped the woman to make sure that she didn't crawled to Clementine and morty carried Clementine on her arms and got out of the store with Rick.
Now there was only Lee that needed to leave the store.
But suddenly Larry appeared by the door with an angry look on his face.
When Lee reached the door, Larry stopped him from leaving.
"You're not coming with us you son of a bitch!" Larry shouted before punching Lee, nearly knocking him out cold.
Lee's vision was blurry, he could hear the dead woman getting closer to him.
Suddenly Kenny appeared, he lifted the axe and axed the woman's skull.
"I ain't leaving nobody getting eaten today." Kenny said offering Lee an hand "Especially a good friend." Kenny said when Lee took his hand.
With that Lee gave one last look at the store before closing the door.
They went to a moter in, Lilly had just finished rounding up all of the corpses on a pile.
While that was going on, the group was interacting with each other.
Glenn drove of to Atlanta in order to find some friends (but we all know what's going to happen with him).
Beth and Katjaa were talking about their jobs.
"So tell me Beth what do you use to do when corpses aren't walking around?" Katjaa asked.
"I used to be a surgeon." Beth told Katjaa.
"A horse surgeon." Jerry added.
Beth glared at him.
"That's very impressive Beth." Katjaa praised.
"You really think so?" Beth asked.
"Of course, I use to be a veterinary, although it was more with dogs and cats and not horses." Katjaa told Beth.
Beth chuckled at the irony "Wow, what are the odds? We both work with animals." Beth said "You know, one time Jerry ran over a deer because he was distracted eating run raisins ice cream. So I brought him to my operation table and I was able to save his life." Beth told Katjaa.
"You really are a woman of many talents Beth, we could really use your talents." Katjaa said.
Beth felt a tear form in her left eye, in her life people always made fun of her for being a horse surgeon, but she was never praised for it. Jerry did that one time, but he only said that because he wanted to have sex with her.
While that was going on Morty, Duck and Summers seemed to be bonding pretty well. They were talking about a comic book series called Super Dinosaur. Clementine was there too but she seemed sad about something.
Lee noticed that "Hey guys could you cool off your jets for a second."
"Right, sorry." Duck apologized.
"I'm sorry that there are not many kids in here." Lee said.
"No it's not that. I got grabbed again, and my walkie talkie broke." Clementine said showing the walkie talkie.
"That's the same walkie talkie, that we use to play secret agents on the backyard." Morty said remembering the good times.
"It was the only way that I had to speak with my parents. And now it's gone." Clementine said trying to hold her tears.
"Maybe we can find you a new one." Lee said trying to cheer her up.
"I think I'll just keep this one." Clementine said.
"Don't worry Clem, I'm sure that grandpa Rick can fix that in a second." Summers said.
Speaking of which, Rick was leaning on the wall, drinking from his flask, thinking about how much everything changed in just one day, I guess all you need is just one bad day.
He then saw something interesting. Lee and Larry were talking, and it turned out that Lee was in fact a murderer that killed a state senator.
"I don't give a shit, what happens to you, but if anything happens to my daughter or that little girl you got there with you… you watch your ass!" Larry threaten.
After the conversation ended, Rick decided to talk to Larry.
Larry noticed Rick "What did you heard?"
"Just the interesting part." Rick said.
"Then you understand why I did that." Larry said.
"I guess, but he saved my granddaughter so I don't really know what to think about it." Rick said before taking another sip from his flask "You want some?" Rick asked offering Larry a drink.
Larry was hesitated "I can't."
"This affects the liver and not the heart, your daughter didn't mention anything about you having liver problems." Rick insisted. "Plus if things go to shit then you might never find another drink like this one."
Larry looked at the flask for a second "Ah, fuck it." He said before taking the flask and taking a sip from it "It's good shit, thanks." Larry said.
"You're welcome, you don't have to worry about me or my family being here, we'll be going to Atlanta to find my daughter." Rick said before putting his flask back on his belt.
"Alright guys get on the ship, we're going to Savannah." Rick called his family.
"Finally." Jerry said.
"Wait, what about Lee?" Clementine asked.
"We'll pick him up, after we pick up your parents." Rick lied.
So the family got inside the ship. Rick pushed a button and the ship started floating. The group on the ground had their eyes widen and their jaws were hanging open.
But suddenly the ship started to make a weird noise, and felled to the ground.
The family was confused.
"What the hell just happen?" Beth asked.
Rick checked the ship's monitor, it was what he feared "We're out of fuel." Rick said.
"What!" The family said in union.
"W-what do you mean by that Rick? I-I thought the ship was fulled by that small world of alien like creatures that live inside the ship." Morty said.
"It would be if you, if I hadn't changed it because YOU wouldn't stop bothering me about how slavery it looked like!" Rick shouted.
"Grandpa why is there smoke coming from there?" Clementine asked.
Rick looked and there was smoke coming from the front of the ship.
Rick got out of the ship and lifted the ship's hood "OH GODDAMMIT!" Rick yelled before kicking the ship.
"What's wrong?" Summers asked.
"The engine is busted, because of the replacement fuel that I had to use. It's beyond repair." Rick said "It basically means that we're stuck here!"
"W-what are going to do Rick?" Morty asked starting to panic.
"I can try to built a new engine from scrap that works on regular fuel and plugged it to the ship's main core." Rick explained.
"How long will that take?" Jerry asked.
"Jerry I'm gonna have to get parts from abandoned cars and just some other stuff that I find. So if we're lucky enough I might be able to built a working engine in about… three months." Rick said frustrated.
"S-so we're stuck here for three months!?" Morty panicked.
"Yeah, and all that because you had to go all communist about the ship's fuel!" Rick shouted at Morty.
"Look guys, why don't we all just sleep on it, and look on the bright side, this place ain't that bad. It has beds a roof under our heads and we've got electricity." Kenny said "There are folks in worst situations."
But then suddenly the lights were cut off leaving the group drowned in darkness.
"You were saying Kenny?" Rick said mocking
"Let's just go to sleep. We'll deal with all of this in the morning." Lee said.
"Yeah while you guys do that, I'm gonna go take a shit." Rick announced.
"Swear grandpa." Clementine pointed out.
"Sorry darling." Rick apologized before he went on to do his "business".
With that the rest of the group went to sleep.
And that ladies and gentleman was the first chapter.
I hope you like it as much as I liked writing this chapter.
I hope this inspires more people to write Rick and Morty/Twd crossovers.
Don't forget to review and leave suggestions if you can.
