The Artificial Intelligence Singularity is nigh.
Jaeger International is monitoring and ready to destroy any out of control A.I.
Seems straight forward till the Aliens turn up. Why, with all the galaxy to explore, are they coming here.
Perhaps this AI business is more important than we humans realise. 
Are the Aliens arriving to watch and monitor what happens.
Have they come to poach or protect, to judge or to execute.
Will humanity survive the greatest possible challenge it has ever faced,
or will the aliens watch the end of another species who couldn't get their act together.

Read your way through the twists and turns of the science and society;
and our expectations of a future, just around the corner.

The original story - Guest - is a short story written during the 1990s and can be found at the end of Claws.
It will soon be posted separately.
Claws came into being as a result of Guest being translated into french by @Libresprit,
and has grown into the comedy scifi novel - Claws and Curls.
Enjoy the ride!

Between The Crystals

70 parts Ongoing

The aliens kill every human they catch, or in rare cases, put trackers on them to discover their hidden villages. When Natalie is caught in an ambush, she is unexpectedly released. But there is no tracker. The Saursunes have an entirely different motive this time. *** Run. Don't look back. When Natalie is trapped in an alien ambush, she is unexpectedly released. The first human to ever be let go. The Saursunes invaded centuries ago, and everyone knows that getting caught is certain death. Natalie is confused but grateful to be alive. As a porter, one of the few humans with the rare ability to teleport between special crystal formations, she must leave the safety of her desert village every day to help gather food. When other villages increase their raids on the Saursunes' farms, the aliens retaliate by hunting down every human they can find - except Natalie's group. Instead of trying to kill her and those helping her, they bring them food instead. Is it a trap? Or something else? Natalie isn't sure, but one thing is certain: the Saursunes aren't done with her yet. ------------ Updates are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 11-1pm MST. The story is completed offline, so no worries about it being abandoned!
