Synopsis

Two amoeba like aliens (one male and one female) are tasked by the Solar Federation with trying to help humanity from destroying itself. They deduce the best thing to do is take one male and one female, destroy every other being on Earth, and start the species all over again. They take human disguises and go about looking for a human. The female finds one, captures him, and takes him back to the ship. Humanity is then wiped out. She is worried that her mate hasn't returned to the ship with his human yet. But to her horror realizes that the man she abducted was her mate in his human form.
