The Catechism of Gricka - Part 2
Set within the JenkinsVerse, aka, The Deathworlders; this, the second half of the story by user Slice_of_Pi, explores the amusing story of how when the first humans were abducted and abandoned out in the greater galaxy...they found cats...known as "Gricka's" already there, and terrorizing the galaxy.
The original story can be found here:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Some additional story notes from the author:
The march referenced at the beginning is the Easter Aldermaston March protesting nuclear weapons in the UK. It was the first such protest, and I felt it deserved some recognition.
Mrs. Nesbitt is a survivor of the Coventry Blitz in World War 2, which was a massive series of raids by the Luftwaffe resulting in massive destruction; it had a formative effect on bombing doctrine for the rest of the war.
The Irish blackthorn-wood shillelagh is both a formidable traditional weapon with a fighting style all its own and a traditional walking stick. Mr. Nesbitt may have had Irish ancestry, or perhaps Mrs. Nesbitt simply liked it...
The Bengal housecat is a popular breed for cat-lovers, and is the basis for how I see the gricka. The two Bengals referenced early on would have had a number of advantages in size and aptitude over many of the others, and thus would have (in my opinion) had a greater number of descendants.

The Deathworlders - Chapter 3 - An eventful month
It has been a month since the Hunter attach at Rogers Arena. To say the news has gone global would be an understatement. The journey of Kevin Jenkins and Terry Boone has snowballed, and gained momentum. At the same time, the military is still trying to make heads or tails of the events, and the remains left over.
Elsewhere, the news of the Hunter attack has made it to the galactic media; as has the result. The galaxy collectively shits itself at the monster that may have been wakened, and some move to take a precipitous step to head things off before the now angry Human race can get loose.

The Deathworlders - Chapter 2 - Aftermath
We are not alone.
Mankind now has incontrovertible proof of that fact in the form of a hostile alien attack...which, unfortunately for the aliens, happened in the middle of a hockey game, in Vancouver B.C. . The Hunters...smeared to the last (and worse, the audience then complained that the ice surface was ruined and the game could not continue.)
As the world comes to grips with what has happened, the Canadian military begins investigating everything that remained...and Kevin Jenkins, along with Terry Boone, begin a journey of discovery.

The Deathworlders - Chapter 0 - The Kevin Jenkins Experience - Part 3
About a decade and a half or so ago, a short story was uploaded to 4Chan. This story became quite popular on the platform and became an HFY classic.
