More comments! I get motivated by it!!

Anyway, enjoy the chapter. Toodaloo Bitches.

===========

The portal opened, and they emerged in Dimension Z-Alpha-3. The landscape was harsh and alien, with jagged rocks and swirling purple skies. As they landed, Morty immediately unbuckled his seatbelt and stood up.

"Alright, Rick. What's the plan for getting this Zedranium?" Morty asked, grabbing a blaster from the weapon rack.

"There's a cave system about a mile north of here," Rick said, pulling up a holographic map.

"The Zedranium deposits are deep underground. We'll have to navigate through some tricky terrain and possibly fend off some nasty creatures." Morty nodded, already moving towards the exit hatch.

"Let's do it." They set out towards the cave, the harsh wind whipping around them. Morty kept his blaster ready, eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of danger. As they approached the entrance, a low growl echoed from within.

"Sounds like we've got company," Rick muttered, pulling out his own weapon.

Morty took a deep breath, stepping into the cave. The darkness closed around them, but Morty's resolve didn't waver. They moved deeper, the growls growing louder. Suddenly, a massive, reptilian creature lunged at them from the shadows.

Morty didn't hesitate. He fired his blaster, hitting the creature square in the chest. It roared in pain, but Morty kept firing, driving it back. Rick joined in, and together, they managed to subdue the beast.

"Nice shooting, Morty," Rick said, a note of genuine admiration in his voice.

"Thanks, Rick. Let's keep moving," Morty replied, already advancing further into the cave. The two continued inside where more creatures came and Morty easily took care of them using the Omni-Wrench swing towards the alien creature.

"By the way, where did you get that blaster and wrench?" Rick said, taking a sip of his flask while shooting another alien in the head.

"I made it. This one is an ion blaster and this wrench is called an Omni-wrench that I can resize that helps in creating inventions." Morty said, crushing the leg of the alien then kneeing its skull as it fell down splattering the blood everywhere.

"Good to hear. I won't give you my stuff that easily." Rick said and Morty chuckled.

"Nah, I like my own personal gadgets. Though, I won't lie, I took some reference from the garage." He said.

"Just make sure to take it back." Rick said and his grandson nodded.

"Already did." Morty said, looking at the flask wondering if he should get one. Just for aesthetics.

After a while, they finally reached the Zedranium deposit, a glowing vein of mineral embedded in the rock. Morty set up the extraction device while Rick kept watch. As the machine hummed to life, Morty felt a sense of accomplishment wash over him.

"Got it," he said as the last chunk of Zedranium was collected.

"Let's get out of here." They retraced their steps, emerging from the cave just as another group of creatures appeared on the horizon. Morty didn't flinch. He aimed his blaster and fired, covering their retreat back to the spaceship.

"On your left." Morty said as Rick dodge and he blasted the head of the creature clean off.

"Not bad." Rick commented before blasting the one behind Morty as the two worked together as one easily took care of the creature as they soon arrived at the space cruiser.

As they lifted off and soared back through the portal, Rick glanced over at Morty, a proud smile on his face.

"You know, Morty, you've really come a long way. You handled yourself like a pro back there."

"Thanks, Rick. I guess I finally feel like I belong on these adventures." Morty smiled, feeling the weight of Rick's words.

"Well, partner, I think you've earned it. Here's to-to *Buurp* many more." Rick chuckled.

As they cruised through the cosmos on their way home, Rick decided to make a pit stop at an intergalactic pawn shop. Morty followed him inside, the air thick with the scent of alien artifacts and old electronics.

Rick wasted no time in striking up a conversation with the shop owner beige scaly skin with certain parts being red. He has two yellow eyes with beige iris, long dark hair, unibrow and no visible nose.

On each hand he has got four fingers linked with webbed skin, and several ridges on his back. He wears a metal cuff on each wrist with a green tube from the cuff into his forearms.

"Look, I'm not paying 70 smidgens for a broken defraculator." Rick said.

"That is multiphase quantum resonator." The clerk said.

"Well, does itdefraculate?" Rick asked.

"Fuck no." The clerk said, folding his arms.

"Then-then-then it's a broken defraculator." Rick said.

"Like you would even know dick about fraculation! Your planet just got cellphones, and the coverage still sucks!" The clerk shouted in refute.

"Yeah, yeah, and your species eat sulfur, So, let's say 60 smidgens, I tell you what -- I'll do you a favor, I'll throw in a fart." Rick suggested while Morty wandered around the shop, browsing the shelves of strange trinkets and oddities.

In the back corner, hidden amongst a pile of dusty relics, Morty spotted it: a sleek, futuristic-looking sex robot finding what he was looking for. Its synthetic exterior gleaned under the dim lighting, and Morty couldn't help but feel drawn to it.He approached Rick, who was still engrossed in negotiations with the shop owner.

"Hey, Rick, can I have that?" Morty asked, pointing towards the robot. Rick glanced over, raising an eyebrow.

"What, that thing? What do you want that for?" Morty shrugged, trying to play it cool.

"I don't know, it just looks cool. Plus, I figure I should have a souvenir from our adventures, you know, in case… well, in case anything ever happens to you." Rick's expression softened slightly, and he sighed, realizing Morty's sentimentality.

"Alright, Morty, whatever floats your boat. Just don't get too attached to it."

Morty grinned, grabbing the sex robot and carrying it over to the counter. The shop owner rang them up, and Rick begrudgingly handed over the credits.

As they left the pawn shop and headed back to the spaceship, Morty couldn't wipe the smile off his face. Sure, the sex robot was a strange choice for a souvenir, but it was his choice and Morty was going to have a lot of fun with it.

Rick's spaceship landed smoothly in the backyard, and Morty carefully disembarked with his new acquisition. Rick sauntered out, looking slightly more relaxed than usual after a successful adventure. The sun had set, casting a warm glow over the Smith household.

"Home sweet home, Morty," Rick muttered, stretching his arms. "Let's get inside before your mom freaks out about us being late for dinner."

They made their way to the back door and stepped inside. The aroma of a home-cooked meal greeted them, a stark contrast to the usual chaos of their interdimensional escapades. In the dining room, Beth stood over a table set with dinner, and Summer sat fiddling with her phone.

"Oh, you're back just in time," Beth said, smiling as she set down a platter of roasted chicken and vegetables.

"I decided to cook tonight since you were off with Rick."

"Wow, Mom, this looks great," Morty said, placing the sex robot discreetly in a corner before sitting down at the table.

"Yeah, it does," Rick added.

"Thanks, Beth." He thanked her while Summer looked up from her phone, eyeing the robot curiously and gave a mischievous smile.

"What's with the shiny new friend, Morty~?" Morty rubbed his head then said.

"Uh, it's just a souvenir from our adventure today. Thought it looked cool." Beth glanced at it briefly, then focused back on serving dinner.

"Well, as long as it doesn't cause any trouble. Let's eat."

They all settled down, and for a moment, the room was filled with the sounds of clinking cutlery and the occasional hum of conversation. It felt normal, almost peaceful, a stark contrast to the wild adventure Morty and Rick had just returned from.

"So, Morty," Beth began.

"How was your trip with Rick?" Morty exchanged a quick glance with Rick before answering.

"It was intense, but I think we handled it pretty well. Got the Zedranium Rick needed, and we managed to avoid any major disasters."

"Except for the cave monsters," Rick added with a grin.

"But Morty here handled them like a pro. The kid really has some serious guts now." Beth's eyes softened with pride.

"I'm glad you're both safe." Summer looked from Morty to Rick and then to the robot.

"Well, at least you guys bring back more interesting stuff than just boring old souvenirs." Rick chuckled, taking a swig from his flask.

"You have no idea, Summer."

The rest of the dinner went by with shared stories and laughter, the family momentarily united in their shared time together. Morty felt a sense of contentment wash over him. No matter how crazy their adventures got, moments like this made it all worth it.

As they finished eating, Rick stood up, wiping his mouth with a napkin.

"So, Morty, wanna lend a hand with a little project?" Rick's voice was laden with his usual mix of mischief and scientific fervor.

Morty hesitated, his gaze flickering momentarily towards the small souvenir sitting on the mantelpiece.

"Um, not today, Rick. I've got, uh, something I need to take care of." With a knowing smirk, Rick raised an eyebrow.

"Something more important than assisting in groundbreaking scientific endeavors?" Morty shrugged, a faint flush coloring his cheeks.

"Yeah, kinda." Rick nodded and made his way to the garage.

"Thanks for dinner, Mom," he said, standing up.

"Anytime, Morty," Beth replied, giving him a hug.

As the dinner plates were cleared and Morty's alien dog, Zed, eagerly devoured his meal, the atmosphere in the Sanchez household shifted.

Once he was done went to his room taking the sex robot with him. He entered straight to his personal pocket dimension - a megastructure the size of Earth containing all the facilities and futuristic technology he needed - Morty went straight for one of its many labs. He set down the souvenir on a nearby table as Cortana appeared in her human body form before him.

"What can I do for you today?" she asked curiously.

"Just need quick diagnostic," said Morty as he picked up the device again while activating some diagnostic tools within their shared dimension.

As Morty worked with Cortana to diagnose the souvenir, more of his mates and daughters entered the lab. Sil, Eve, and Laura were among the first to arrive, curious about what Morty had found himself involved in this time. They stood behind him as he ran various tests on the device.

"What is it?" Sil softly asked as she leaned over his shoulder to get a better look at what he was doing.

"It clearly doesn't look like something you've made." Morty nodded in agreement but didn't say anything yet; he wanted to be sure of what they were dealing with before making any assumptions or announcements.

He continued running diagnostics while more of his mates and daughters joined them in the lab - Sara, Sarah, Samus, Riful, Luciela, Rafaela, Priscilla, Theresa - all wearing erotic maid outfits that accentuated their curves and left little to imagination about their intentions towards him tonight…

As more of his mates and daughters gathered around Morty, he finally spoke up about the device.

"It's a sex robot from Gazorpazorp," He explained.

"They're similar to Sil in that they can create children and have them grow into adults within a day."

This announcement caused quite a stir among the group; several of his daughters asked if he wanted them to capture one for him so that they could have more sisters. Morty chuckled at their eagerness but shook his head.

"I think I'll go there alone later," he said with a grin.

"But thank you for offering."

The news excited all of his mates and daughters even further, as they imagined what kind of children these races where the robot came from could produce with their father - half-human hybrids with incredible abilities or perhaps something entirely new altogether... The possibilities were endless, fueling their already intense desires for him even more.
