[ WP ] The Alien race that originally brought humans to Earth , return and are appalled by the current state of the planet . They give mankind an ultimatum : Cease all damage to the planet within one year , or the entire race will be eliminated .

Billions of people listen to the message. Billions of people look at each other and realize they are fucked. The aliens leave, and the greatest party of all time begins. For 8 months it rages. Millions die in the wake of it, perhaps even billions. Cities fall apart, all governments collapse. Chaos reigns. Wars stop then begin again, even worse than before. Nukes begin to fly. After 11 months, billions are dead and most of the world is wasteland. Humanity does not think to band together and fight aliens or attempt to change. Still, a few hundred million remain among the living in this party turned dystopic nightmare. 
 
 Then, one year later, the aliens return and look at the world they left behind. The aliens release nanobots that reproduce and collect the radioactive material and clear the atmosphere of dust. Nanobots decompose the dead and restore the balance of life to the land and the oceans. Species that had long been extinct return to the world. This is accomplished in a matter of days. Once finished, the unrevealed aliens finally address humanity. Satellites around the world broadcast the message. 
 
 `` We never intended to destroy you. We had to answer a question, an important one. The question was `` could an intelligent race change if faced with immediate extinction once they had started down the path of destruction?'' The answer is no, but there is no point in eliminating you. You will destroy yourselves soon enough, but we will save your genetic material. Perhaps, you can flourish elsewhere with the proper guidance as we have. After all, you're not the only humans in the galaxy.''
