Rachel dreams - spoilers for the end of the Animorphs series

Her pace is steady, if only because anything that isn't steady calls her attention and gives her something to be angry at, and even Rachel finds it difficult to get mad at her own feet. Plodding along with her little bag slung over one shoulder, chewing numbly on some of the bread from yesterday's dinner, hardly looking around her. It's just another road in another state probably with another town that needs a thug tossed out of it or something. Doesn't need her, just needs anybody.

What's the point?



Grumbling to herself, a very tired, very cranky blonde continues on.

After a while, she'll come to a spot where the trees line the road prettily. But, the odd thing here, is that every fourth tree or so, there's a collection of CDs hanging from the branches, twisting in the wind.

And in the reflection on the back of the CDs, there is a man watching her progress.

"Thank you." Mort replies. His face doesn't move much, only enough to speak. He's never been much of one for showing his emotions.

"It's a form of worship." Morts voice goes a little softer as the Cd spins away from her. "My followers are putting them up to give me a view where I normally wouldn't have one."

"That depends on your view of things. Does the one being worshipped lead the relegion?" He strokes his chin, pondering it. I would say no, I am no form of relegious leader. I leave that to my priests."

"As to whether it is a cult, well, I'd have to say no again. Cults tend to be small, scary groups, that force changes upon their followers in order to control them. Although my people are small, I do not attempt to control them, simply to guide them."

He pauses, seeking what has been forgotten. "Ah, perhaps if I introduced myself it would be more clear. I am Mort, God of Prophecy and Reflection."

"And you chose the name you use I presume?" He's heard it all before, it doesn't bug him. Mainly cause he lived his mortal life being teased as Mortimer. "Although if you have such issue with my name, it is rather excellent that you are speaking with the god of travellers right now."

"Not. Not speaking to the god of travelers." Mort coughs. "Excuse me, my attention was diverted momentarily." He holds up a finger. "I would never impinge on Bobs territory."

"I was introducing myself, and you took off on a tangent about my name, where upon I brought up that all gods start off as mortals, and tend to keep the names we were given in our first life."

A brief nod of his head. "I believe that covers it?"

"His name is Bob. He's an amusing fellow, when he's sober." Mort lifts a finger. "Yes, before the godwave. Our world expierienced... an influx of deities."

[identity profile] godofshiny.livejournal.com 2008-07-22 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"Bob is what some men would call a hobo. Well, before he was imbued, anyways. And it's sort of hard to break your mold after the imbueing."

There is an indication from the CD that Mort might be evil. After all, it's one fo those free AOL starter disks. But then again, those things are easy to come by.

"It was an energy, that came from outside our universe, and created new gods. We believe it to have been the remains of the ancient gods."

"Not exactly randomly. A lot of it came from what we were in life. And what we were doing when the wave hit."

He adjusts his tie, self conciously.

"I was one of the premier stockbrokers in my field, which earned me the prophecy bit."

"Searching for your way?" He winks at her. "You looked... lost."

"I was speaking, perhaps, more mentally then literally." There's a limit to the amount of actions one can perform when one is imprisoned in a reflection.

"You seem as if you have no direction." In an effort to clear things up.
