The Zygotes were aliens from the outer space, a planet known as Eranus. They originated from Earth about thirty thousand years ago. They do not die due to the vial to the sand of life which has made them to assume immortality; the Vial was given to them by a witch. They had seen the pillages and degradation that Earth had been subjected to. Their mission was to help Earth, otherwise, what happens on Earth will eventually have a devastating effect on Eranus. There were uprisings fuelled by the greedy politicians in order to topple the Zygotes. Lastly was the DNA profiling of a Zygote at Wuhan laboratory in China, which led to the creation of a dangerous animal known as Zygosaur- a specie of Pterosaur. The presence of the Zygosaurs had caused deaths in the number of several millions on Earth. The Zygosaurs were dangerous-could only be gotten rid of if they make their way back to Africa. The immortality of the Zygotes meant that someone had to reveal the code to the sand of life- Zamata, a lady Zygote fell in love with a scientist called Kiof. The code to the vial that holds the sand of life was released by Zamata to Kiof. The Zygotes were defeated, the politicians were happy. The bounty placed on the Zygotes for anyone/persons who help to defeat the Zygotes was won by the trio of Kiof, Joki and Zamata. They outplayed each other with deception to see who eliminates each other in order to have complete access to the bounty. One of trio (Kiof) got killed in the ensuing drama of trying to outdo each other. The rat race has just begun. The politicians were back to their usual life! Mr. Paski woke to discover he was in a dream!
