AN: This oneoff fanfiction is told from the perspective of Akyuu BTW. I could've done it from the perspective of Aya, as she actually IS a journalist but it would make more sense if the main character was more human/weaker/unable to fly. This is a retelling of Jeff Wayne's interpretation of war of the worlds except in gensokyo with substituted characters. It would be advisable to read this while listening to War of the worlds, a new generation. There will be a few incompatibilities with the lines but that cannot be helped. I would record this and put it up on youtube for you to listen to while you read but I don't have enough female voice actors and I'm sure you don't want me trying to voice alice, but regardless of that, Enjoy!

Japan's enma/yama is shikieiki, but europe's enma/yama is morgan freeman
No one would've believed, in the last years of the 20th century, that gensokyan affairs were being watched from the timeless worlds of space…
No one could've dreamed that we were being scrutinised, as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
Few even considered the possibility of life on other planets (besides the moon).
And yet, from across the gulf of space. Minds immeasurably superior to ours, regarded gensokyo with envious eyes.
And slowly, and surely…
They drew their plans against us.
