Beautiful [Alien!Gerard]

An Important Explanation

Gerard is an alien from a planet very far away from Earth. I'll go into a little bit of detail, but I don't want to give too much away.

Gerard's planet's only goal is surviving. They are very much unlike us humans. We strive to create, to find purpose, to put ourselves out there. That was quite the opposite on Gerard's planet. All anyone on there did was work all day, and sleep all night. Nothing magical or interesting happened there, which made many people never dream.

They were called the 'Master race'. Billions of years ago, several pioneers came to Earth. They grew the planet to its state today. Eventually, the Master race abandoned their project on Earth, disgusted with the way the people there had become. The Master race highly disliked self-indulgence and anything beautiful.

They hated anything that wasn't completely necessary so much that their language was built to avoid using descriptive words and phrases. Now, you will see complete sentences spoken between Peyton and Gerard, and that is only for the sake of full comprehension. The sentences they speak are, in fact, very much choppy and broken.

Peyton has telepathic abilities. Keep in mind some things can shut down her abilities. Like, loud noises and fear. She doesn't know everything about Gerard, but she knows enough to help him.

The point of view changes throughout the story, but before you think it'll be confusing, I will tell you this. It changes in a pattern. Third person, Peyton, Gerard. Remember that and you'll be just fine.
