Millions of years ago, the magical races set about exploring space. When the humans started rejecting and persecuting them, only some chose to stay and help humanity thrive. Now, humanity is coming a little too close to discovering the magical world that lives alongside them. Unable to leave the planet, the magical races retreat to places on the earth that are uninhabitable to humans. Can they contact their space faring brethren before the humans discover them? Or will there be a genocidal war?

Tyger and his friends are a group of genetically engineered cat humanoid, raised to become star rangers for the intergalactic human federation, called the Star Alliance. Their job is to protect the human colonies and defeat whoever tries to threaten them. But everything changed when a mysterious race of alien bugs appears from the unknown and attack the planets. To order to stop the bugs, the Star Cats must find an alien artifact with the mysterious potential of stopping the invaders. They will travel to different worlds, fight different space monsters, and raid two alien temples before the bugs exterminate everyone across the galaxy. Will they be able to save humans, or will they fall? Note: There might be grammar errors I missed because this is my first draft. This fiction will also be a novella. I will post the chapters between 6 pm and 10 pm. The book cover is also AI generated from Dall-e 3.

What are comrades who run on code? What makes an artificial creation designed to fight alive? Taking place before the events of 'R. A. T. H', this is a short story that focuses on the character Shana Striker with a brief glimpse into her past as a Captain within Alos's army. It is best read after having read up to at least the end of chapter 23 of the main story, though chapter 30 is more preferable. Yet, this short may also stand alone on its own merits if you wish it to. Discord Server: https://discord.gg/vwKhVUR Want more interesting stories? Check out my profile.
