Miscellaneous Street - The Soap Opera

That's not possible. Not with these guys. If Picard didn't have a team of writers pulling crap out of their ... youknowwhatsis, he would be have been the harbinger of death - not Starbuck.

Anyway, get ready to hit the button ...

The space ship starts glowing green, a sudden flash of bright blue light spreads across Miscellaneous Street, Neutral Road and Central Avenue, one loud "pop" and then, all that's left of where the space ship was, is smoke.
 
Okay... wow.

Got anything else up here I should know about?

(*starts rummaging through Jenee's attic boxes*)

Ohhhh... (*picks up magazine*) I didn't know you... mmmmm... (*turns page*) uh-huh... (*wipes mouth*)

(*looks inside another box*)

...and what on earth is this??
 
uhmm... Daniel.

... we hadn't pushed any buttons, yet.

"When did you last see RJ? and what was he doing?"
 
What the blazens is that strange green glow from the cafe attic? Hippy Lady had always suspected that Jenee as being a bit...off, but that strange green glow is big, so she's going to keep her mouth shut and keep her distance from the cafe until they held another karaoke night.

Compared to the other street residents Hippy Lady was starting to feel, well, normal, and she didn't like that at all. Ah, well, time to realign the crystals to help fight the aliens, but darned if she was doing another Tarot card reading. The last one freaked the hell out of her, and that takes some doing.
 
A third Rubik's cube decends into the sky above Misc Street. Seeming to note the strange green glow emanating from the coffee shop, it unleashes an Independence Day style particle beam at the coffee shop. The coffee shop implodes, raining shrapnel over the remaining structures on MISC Street. The Rubik's Cube moves over above the bookshop and unleashes another particle beam into the bookshop, causing it to implode as well.

Soda and Daniel are seen emerging from the bar, coughing and sputtering, and covered in dirt from head to toe. They turn and look up at the hole in the roof of the bar that they entered through. Right then, a loud moan is head from the roof of the deli. Plastered to the chimney of the deli is a very sore looking RJD, holding what looks to be a book of spells.

Holding onto his original edition of Rendezvous With Rubik's Cubans, RJD climbs painfully down from the roof of the deli. "Well, at least this is the last one," he says, looking up at the giant malevolent cube in the sky.

Taking a portable disk drive out of his coat pocket, he aims it at the cube and mutters a few syllables in ancient R'Lyehan. The disk drive whirs, and a few moments later the giant Rubik's Cube begins to shudder. One by one, its square faces turn blue and the words "Read/Write error, sector corrupt, terminating process" appear. Finally, all of the squares go dark and the cube tumbles out of the sky, crashing into the woods.

"Looks like I'll have to rebuild the shop again. Good thing all the important stuff is in the vault."
 
Ice turns in the direction of Jenee's scream and notes that he thinks the scream came from the Crazy Cat Lady's house two blocks over...
 
"But I pushed the button!" says an utterly bewildered Daniel.

Digging his phone out of his pocket, he texts Crazy Cat Lady for help...

Go back to the point where the aliens first arrive and I stop you from attacking them. Then stop me from stopping you, and this whole thing will end with you (past you) and your two big cats whupping the first two aliens. The lego rubix cubes will never attack and I won't have to deal with a ruined coffee shop or the families of crushed customers.

We can get RJ to cast a memory spell, so that once the timeline is altered, we'll all still remember what really happened.
 
OK, shall do.

Do you think I should take present day Leo and Stripe with me so we have four big cats to deal with the aliens?
 
Not sure if that would be effective as I'm thumbing through a cookbook that was evidently one one of the Rubik's cubes. If I got the translation right, there is about 200 recipes that call for some form of lion or tiger parts as ingredients.
 
Well we will just have to quickly write a cookbook with recipes for aliens. Then our city can declare a open hunting season on aliens.
 
I have just discovered that aliens don't taste like chicken but more like fish. I think we will just have to adapt fish recipes for the cookbook.
 
When altering History, don't forget that the Rubik's Cubans do everything in threes.
 
Galaxy and Moonlight can do a Rubik's Cube in less than 90 seconds. Would you like their help? Also I have a salad to go along with Poached Alien in White Wine Sauce.
