AN: This chapter is what happened after the chapter "Getting Started". Ericka and Morty go to council to see if they can help break Rick out of prison.
Chapter Six:
Council Problems
Morty had some stuff he really had to do. There were processing chips everywhere when he walked into his room.
"God damn it, Summer. I told you to stay out of my room." Morty muttered under his breath.
He had no time to clean it up, but it gave him an idea.
When he got Rick's stuff, Morty saw all of his blueprints and other things.
Morty found the blueprints for the power armor and figured out a way to make the processing chips into portable armor.
It took him a couple hours, since he got electrocuted, again, but he finally finished what he called "Power Chips". He made three for himself, which he would put two in his wrists, and one in his heel with a syringe.
Morty kicked his heel and all of his body, except for his face, was covered in the armor. He kicked his heel again and he was uncovered. His wrists were still covered and he could kick ass no matter what.
"Morty! We need to get to council! Come on!" Ericka banged on his door, holding his file, without his birth certificate.
"H-Hold on!" Morty came running out the door. He opened a portal on the floor and they jumped in together.
Ericka ran in front of him. "I have to talk to council before you enter. They don't know about your intelligence enhancement, so they need to know." Ericka explained.
She went in the court hall and bowed before council, like everyone is supposed to do.
"You may speak, Ericka." Riq IV spoke.
"We need some assistance. Now here me out. Just…. Take these." Ericka gave one of the Rick guards Morty's file.
She watched all of council's eyes widen. "Y-You're joking right? These p-papers are a j-joke right?" Riq IV laughed.
"No sir. These are legit." Ericka answered.
"B-But how?! Only Ricks have these scores! And have th-this IQ! Bring h-him in." Zeta Alpha Rick commanded.
The Rick guards brought in Morty. He was only in there once and that was when they were accused of murdering twenty-seven Ricks and taking their Mortys.
"So, y-you say you're as s-smart as a Rick? How about w-we test that theory?" Riq IV asked.
All of council asked Morty five questions. He answered them all correctly and council was in awe.
"So, w-what can we assist you w-with?" Zeta Alpha Rick asked.
"Rick got arrested two months ago. All we need is for you to help us when we have to face my sister." Ericka explained.
"W-We can't do that. W-We might get arrested as w-well." Riq IV looked down at Morty who looked up at all of council.
"You might not really owe my Rick anything, but you still owe me for wrongly accusing us. So, this is how you'll pay me back." Morty has his priorities in order and needed some more help desperately.
"O-Or what? Yo-You'll cry?" Riq IV laughed again.
Morty kicked his heel and the power armor covered his body. "I'll use the armor. So try and resist, but I'll make you pay." His wrist gun cocked and reloaded. He kicked his heel again and all the armor came off.
"Fine. J-Just don't get injured and we'll be there." Morty and Ericka started walking off. "Oh and Morty, Don't ge-get too cocky. Just because you have the intelligence of a Rick, doesn't mean you aren't an idiot. Take your files b-back." Riq IV gave the files to a guard, who gave the files to Morty.
Morty caught up with Ericka. He opened a portal and walked through. Ericka left to train while Morty retreated into his room.
He opened the folder and found a note.
Morty,
We Ricks might be dick bags, but some of us care for our Mortys as our Mortys care for us. We solemnly promise to help you as much as we can, but if we can't sorry.
Ericka told us about your plan to save your Rick. Stay strong and don't give up. We Ricks do have a strong connection to our Mortys and when we feel all hope is lost; our Mortys give us confidence to keep going. So keep him stable and make him feel… Happy.
Your Rick needs as much help as he can get. So, when you go and kick her ass, you do it together.
Be better than us. Rise above, don't be like us. You're on the right track. You are one of the only Mortys we've seen be as intelligent as his own Rick, that is very impressive. We would really like to see more Mortys like you in the future.
-Council of Ricks
Morty smiled at the way council didn't call him defective, an idiot, or a Rickless Morty.
He had more allies than he could ever imagine. This is what he needed to kick Veronica's ass and save Rick. He kept the note on his desk, next to his gun. He would read it when he felt like all hope was lost and he wanted to just die.
It would give him hope and let him know he was still needed in this crazy Multiverse.
Rick was right:
The Multiverse is really a crazy and chaotic place.
And it was just what he needed in his life.
AN: This took way longer than expected! The next chapter will stop you all in your tracks. The plan commences!
Stay Schwifty my friends!
