"What if I told you I was going to destroy everything in the universe?" asked Joe
"Well, that wouldn't be very nice," said Tyr, crossing his arms.
Beka sighed. "Again?" she asked wearily.
"Do you know how many people try to destroy the universe on a daily basis?" asked Harper.
"Why do you even want to destroy the universe?" asked Rommie.
Joe opened his mouth to answer, then frowned. "You know, I don't actually know," he said thoughtfully. "I just woke up this morning and thought it would be fun."
"So, are you open to being convinced not to do it?" asked Dylan eagerly. Joe considered for a minute.
"No," he said.
"Oh well," Dylan shrugged. "Can't blame a guy for trying. See ya!" He started to leave, but unfortunately, Beka still had him by the ear.
"Oh no, you don't," she said, smiling evilly. Dylan gulped.
"But you don't have to destroy the universe," said Purple Trance. "It hasn't done anything to you."
"True," said Joe. "It is, after all, full of thousands of incredible beings, unimaginable wonders, and delectable foods-"
"And chocolate!" added Tyr, helpfully.
"-and chocolate," Joe thought for another minute. "No, Still gonna destroy it."
"We won't let you!" cried Golden Trance. "We'll never let you win!"
"Actually," said Joe. "You will."
"Don't think so," said Rommie.
"Yep, You see, I have seen the future," Joe attempted to smile, but since he was really just a blob of goo, it didn't work out that well. "And I destroy you in about 5, 4, 3-"
"Wait!" cried Dylan. Joe stopped his countdown, and looked at him irritably.
"For what?" he snapped. All of a sudden, an all-too-conveniently-timed wormhole appeared.
"Andromeda!" shouted Dylan. "Fly into that!"
"What if I don't want to?" asked Rommie.
"What?" asked the rest of the crew.
"You're always telling me what to do, with no regards to what I want-"
"Rommie!" screamed Beka. "Fly through the freakin' wormhole!"
"Well, since you asked so nicely," And with that, the Andromeda Ascendant flew through the conveniently placed plot-I mean, wormhole, leaving a very confused Joe.
"Well," he sighed. "Now I'll just start destroying the universe, I guess…" He took out a road map to the universe. "I think I'll start with New Jersey…"

The Andromeda exited the wormhole next to Earth.
"Rommie, Where are we?" enquired Dylan.
"Read the text above you, idiot," said Rommie.
"Oh," said Dylan. He read the text above him. "Earth?"
"Earth?!" asked Harper.
"And apparently we've travelled an indeterminate amount back in time." Stated Rommie
"Indeterminate?" said Golden Trance.
"Yep," said Rommie. "Looks like 21st century earth to me."
"Cool," said Purple Trance. "Let's go!"
"Ok," agreed Rommie, and everyone started towards the docking bay to get on board the Eureka Maru.
"Wait," said Beka, stopping for a minute and causing the rest to bump into her. "Shouldn't we be worried about the fact that we just traveled back in time?"
"Beka," said Rommie patiently. "There's shopping down there."
"Shopping?" asked Tyr, Dylan, and Harper at the same time. They looked at each other, and then raced to the Maru, leaving the girls in the dust. Golden Trance looked at Purple Trance.
"That was weird." She said.
"Boys," said Beka. The four women shook their heads, and followed the men towards the Maru.

Rev, who was sitting aboard his weird looking spaceship playing Dance Dance Revolution, suddenly realized that he had been completely forgotten.
"Um, excuse me?" he called. "But what about me?"
"Oh, you'll come in again later," his friend assured him. "I mean, they can't just get rid of a character and then completely forget them, can they?" Rev considered this for a moment. He nodded.
"Yeah, I'm sure they'll remember me sooner or later," he finished dancing and looked at his score. "I win!"
A/N: If I offended anybody who lives in New Jersey, sorry. The name was running around my head, and if I hadn't used it, I would have gone crazy! Well, more than I already am, anyway.
