[ WP ] A multitude of Alien ships warp within range of Earth . Over all electronic devices the message is heard , `` Earth , we come in peace . In all the universe only one other Species has mastered Death and Destruction as you have . We need your help . ''

`` Technology for violence is – hum – a concept we can not really grasp'', the Simian said, averting General Serling's 
 eyes. 
 
 *Simian*… The general thought it funny that, when humanity found out that the aliens descended from the same 
 branch of the evolution tree as we did, we decided to call *them* simians. 
 
 *Like we are any different*, Serling thought. *Like we are somehow above them. * 
 
 `` But it comes naturally to you. No offense'', the Simian continued, still uncomfortable. `` Which is why we are here.'' 
 
 `` What do we know about these creatures that are attacking your planet?'' 
 
 `` Artificial Intelligence'', the Simian explain. `` Silicon based and extremely deadly. And we have very limited means of fighting back, as you know.'' 
 
 `` And why are they attacking? Where are they coming from? What's their technology like?'' 
 
 `` We do n't know, we do n't know and extremely advanced'', the Simian answered. `` In that order.'' 
 
 `` It seems a bit odd that these -- *robots* -- are attacking you for no particular reason'', Serling said. `` And that you 
 do n't even know where they are coming from.'' 
 
 `` However that may be, we have a feeling we are the only ones they are going after'', the Simian 
 said, simply. `` We request your help because we feel it would be mutually beneficial.'' 
 
 To Serling's side, the secretary general of the United Nations looked thoughtful. So did the president. 
 
 
 But this had all been months before. Now Serling was sitting on his office trying to think of how he was going to 
 explain to the secretary general of the UN and the president of the United States that – 
 
 `` General Serling'', the president said, in his low voice, entering the room. The secretary followed. `` What are the 
 reports from Kepler?'' 
 
 `` Mr. President. Mr. Secretary General'', Serling said, getting up. `` I have –'' 
 
 `` There's no need to get up'', the secretary said, taking a seat across the table from Serling. 
 
 The president took a seat too, and they both locked their gaze on the general, waiting. 
 
 `` Ok'', Serling whispered, feeling his heart race. He had barely returned from a 500 light years travel, and the jet lag was n't helping. `` All right. You are both aware, of course, that the attack is still happening in the --'' 
 
 `` Yes, we are both aware the Simians are under attack still.'' 
 
 Serling took a deep breath. `` Yeah. Yeah, I'll get to the point. The Simians, they claim this attack is coming from 
 the Kepler System. That's their suspicion. This, huh --'' 
 
 `` This is why we sent you to the Kepler system, general Serling'', the president said, in an impatient voice. `` Could 
 you please get to the point? Have you found out where these robots are coming from?'' 
 
 `` Yes, sir. Kepler 186f'', Serling answered, and now his voice could no longer hide his nervousness. 
 
 `` Kepler 186f is a confirmed, non-inhabited planet'', the secretary general said. `` It's actually an human-friendly planet, and is being considered as an alternate Earth for quite some time. You, of all people, should know this, Serling.'' 
 
 `` Yes'', Serling answered. `` Yes, you are right. The planet is deserted. *Now. *'' 
 
 `` Then where are the robots coming from?'' The president asked, and now he was straight of pissed. 
 
 Serling took a deep breath again. `` Sir, they're coming from the future.'' 
 
 Neither of the man said anything, and Serling took a sip of his empty mug of coffee. 
 
 `` The future?'' 
 
 `` Mr. President. Mr. Secretary-General'', Serling managed to blurt out, finally. `` We are sending these robots from future Kepler 186f. Us. Humans.'' 
 
 The secretary general and the president exchanged glances. 
 
 `` We?'' 
 
 `` Yes'', Serling answered. He took another phantom sip of coffee. `` Humans are coming back in time to kill the 
 Simians. And the Simians want our help fighting back.''
