In a section of space held an advanced species looking much like Earth's kitsune known as Sunes. They are driven to improve at any level to the point that any stalling, especially career stalling, will break them mentally. Though they are the ideal soldier, they do not involve themselves with any other species, at least for the most part.

Caleb's pirates were drifting along when they intercepted a message from the space station Ayeka. The message held information on a new kind of nanomachine that can manipulate the body's metabolism rate, which interested the overweighed Caleb. With the knowledge that they sought support from Delta, Caleb ordered his pirates to move and plan a raid on the station before the deal was finalized.

Meanwhile, Delta sent troops to help defend the space station while negotiations continued. Two of them were Daren, a Solarii Sune, and Kota, a Luarii Sune. Kota seeks to become Daren's friend, whether he likes it or not.

Whew. It's about time I finally posted this story. To explain, I began writing it on November 2021 and completed it in December of the same year. It took so long for this story to post because the owner of the space kitsune, also known as spacesunes and Sunes,  VengenceMkII, took his sweet time reading and editing it. It took him many months (and me offering a bribe) to complete it. XD

I also wanted  CalebLloyd's opinion on the story before posting it. And now that it's posted, is that everything on the backlog? Um, no. There's still Once Upon a Time in England and The Werewolf Connection (currently being reviewed and edited). But after that, there won't be any unposted stories. Just unwritten ones.

Still, I hope you enjoy my first proper science fiction story.

Also, posting this here because the fat part is only a small part of the story and it's fairly light compared to the other stories I've written and gotten. XD;
