It was the day Mulder had been waiting a lifetime for, Only a week before, the first alien contact had been made, and the government's best scientists had been working round the clock to decipher their language. They had invented a machine to transform their sounds into typed human words.

A huge banquet was prepared for the alien landing, which Mulder and Scully had personally overseen. The news teams were starting to arrive now, and Scully was getting nervous.

"This is such a landmark event Mulder! I just can't shake the feeling we forgot something."

"You always have that feeling Scully. C'mon. We're in charge of running the translator, Let's get over there."

As soon as they reached it, the sky turned dark and they saw a huge craft hovering in the sky above them. After a few moments, the translator started to rattle.

"Prepare to die?"

Mulder read in disbelief.

"But...but..."

"We did everything they asked! Why?"

He typed in the last word into the translator.

The answer came almost immediately.

YOU DIDN'T MAKE THE COFFEE!!

A laser shot from the ship above them, and Earth was blown into teeny-weeny pieces. Almost like grinding a coffee bean...

The End
