[ WP ] After dealing with 5 different Time Travelers for the past 3 weeks , Someone starts to consider if it has something to do with the big event next week .

Rob was the most important person on Earth, and boy, did he ever know it. As sure as the sky was blue or or the water was wet, he was important. Ever since he could remember, he knew in his heart of hearts that he was the most important, most significant, greatest living being ever to exist. Nobody ever believed him about it of course, and in fact at school he was bullied about his apparent arrogance nearly nonstop. But he could n't care less. His importance was n't an opinion, was n't a delusion, it was solid fact. Immutable, uncompromising, unyielding fact. 
 
 He was n't even fazed when a great writhing mass of tentacles showed up at his door asking for him. 
 
 `` Um, is the human known as Rob living here?'' 
 
 `` You're looking at him.'' 
 
 The alien fidgeted. `` I did n't, um, I...'' 
 
 `` Go on, speak up.'' 
 
 It gulped. `` I did n't have enough fuel in my time machine to make it to your party...'' It trailed off again. It almost sounded like it was going to cry. 
 
 `` Hey, it's okay,'' The alien's fidgeting worsened noticeably. `` Almost everyone makes mista-.'' 
 
 `` Here's your present!'' It shoved a small wrapped box into Rob's hands and bolted away. 
 
 Rob smiled to himself. Good for that alien, getting up his courage like that! He looked so nervous. Rob placed his present in the middle of the kitchen table and started boiling some water. Important or no, dinner was n't going to cook itself. 
 
 A few days later, an amorphous energy blob came to his school during lunchtime, seeking enlightenment. Upon the realization that Rob was still rather young, the blob admitted it was rather unfamiliar with this universe's timestream and just assumed that the large number of temporal disturbances in the near future were people seeking answers, and it just wanted to beat the line. Rob directed it to go forward about forty years into the future, as he'd probably have a good temporal map then. 
 
 Next week a vampire and two mummies appeared as he was brushing his teeth, asking about his birthday party. Luckily, they had brought their own coffins and such so he just set them up in his basement and promised to wake them up when the time came. 
 
 By the time his birthday actually rolled around, at least five separate groups of time travelers, ten different varieties of mythological monsters, and one very suspicious group of government officials had shown up. 
 
 Finally, the day came. Rob taped up a few balloons, put out some soda, and waited. 
 
 Exactly one minute afterwards, several hundred time machines popped into existence in his front yard. A crowd of very familiar people stepped out. 
 
 `` Hey, Rob.'' 
 
 `` You guys me?'' 
 
 The older Rob who had apparently decided to be their spokesman nodded. `` The future gets a little hectic, so we decided to hold exactly one birthday party, save on rental fees.'' 
 
 `` Cool. Can my house fit all these people?'' 
 
 `` These guys are just the setup crew!'' Older Rob laughed. `` They'll get everything set up in no time. They always do.'' 
 
 Two hours later the party was in full swing. Rob had to admit, being the most important person in existence in the history of the universe had its perks. Hell, he had even hired God as the DJ. Future Rob was pretty smart, he had to say. He could n't wait to come here again next year.
