This is a joke, right?
Iām not really their new supreme leader?
The whole thing is just some kind of elaborate prank?
I mean, it has to be.
I donāt know anything about leading a planet.
I donāt even know what this planet is called, or where it is, or whether its people eat dinner at six oāclock like normal people do.
I canāt be their supreme leader.
Itās just too ridiculous.
And yet, when I look back on everything that happened, I canāt escape the conclusion that itās all true.
The alien really did die while we were playing chess.
The other aliens really did declare me their new supreme leader.
And now Iām really sitting in this room, waiting for my execution.
I still think itās a joke, though.
I think that at any moment the walls are going to dissolve and Rick and Morty are going to come bursting in, laughing at me for falling for it.
But they donāt.
And the longer I sit here, the more I start to wonder if maybe it isnāt a joke after all.
It feels like a joke, sure.
It feels like the kind of twisted nightmare that my grandpa Rick would come up with just to mess with me.
But what if it isnāt?
What if this is really happening?
What if Iām really the supreme leader of an alien planet, and theyāre really going to execute me if I donāt figure out how to do the job in time?
The door swings open, and two alien guards step inside.
Itās time, they say.
They fasten a chain around my wrists and lead me down a long, winding corridor.
We pass through several locked doors and up a flight of stairs.
At the top of the stairs, we enter a brightly lit chamber filled with dozens of green-skinned aliens, all of them looking very serious indeed.
At the back of the chamber is a golden throne, and sitting on the throne is an alien with a mustache.
āWelcome, Summer,ā he says.
āItās good to finally meet you.ā
āUh,ā I say.
āSorry aboutā¦all this.ā
āItās not your fault,ā says the alien with a mustache.
āThe old champion was getting on in years.We should have replaced him sooner.But whatās done is done.The important thing now is for you to accept your role as our new supreme leader.ā
āI canāt do that,ā I say.
āI mean, Iām honored and everything.But you guys should really pick someone else.I think maybe youād be better off without a supreme leader at all, to be honest.ā
They donāt seem to be listening to me any more.
The guards have left me alone with the alien on the throne, and heās looking at me like Iāve just told him that his cat has gone missing or something.
āYouāll have to excuse us,ā he says.
āThe council has much to discuss.ā
