Aliens Learn the Hard Way Why You Don't Mess with Humans | HFY | Sci FI Short Story \

An unprovoked attack on Earth by the warlike Chikol sets humanity on a mission of vengeance across the galaxy. After reverse-engineering the aliens' FTL drives, a nuclear-armed invasion fleet seeks out the Chikol homeworld, ready to crack planets with the ultimate in primitive firepower: nuclear slug throwers. No matter the odds, mankind will never stop fighting.
All of my stories are original.

If you have FTL and no way to somehow cancel out kinetic impacts, then you only have a good way to die. Mind, given what happened here, it sounds like these idiots were just not willing to fire first, since they held the weapons facing them in contempt.
