I Landed In Your Backyard (1x1 Between PenBlade1326 & JacobLoL)

PenBlade1326

The Faint Light In The Dark Tunnel Of Life
(The summary for this RP is written in 1st person POV from my character as a message to YOUR character, just for funzies xD )


My name is Amaria. Not long ago, I fell...I fell into your backyard. When I fell, it hurt...you helped me...thank you for that, by the way. I landed in your backyard after I left my home planet, the world known as Kivee. Kivee is home to a human-like race, practically the same in appearance, a few minor differences, as well as a similar internal system...but still alien from yours. When I landed, my reasons for coming to Earth were kept from you. And for a reason. Though now my reasons for being here don't matter now. Earth's atmosphere made me ill, and you helped me...and by helping me, I am indebted to you. Kivee is my home, and one day I shall return. But for now, I, Amaria of Kivee, am with you, and I will aid you in the times to come. Little do either of us know, large challenges are coming our way, and change is coming to the world...both my planet, and yours. Challenges of action, drama, growth, emotions, all of which will be difficult to face. But, these are tales to be told later...what's important now, is that I landed in your backyard.

As the sun rose in LA on an average Monday morning, the city began to awaken. Kids were off to school, people were off to work, and Amaria was waking up...heading to nothing. Two months ago, she landed in the back yard of the house she's in, owned by 21-yr-old Harry Miles. Her ship from Kivee self-destructed at Earth's atmosphere, causing her to physically fall from the sky and into his yard, Thank goodness for Kiveeans' superior physical endurance. She's been sleeping on his couch even since she was allowed inside. Amaria has gotten used to the house, Harry, and the things that go on. She sat up, stretched her arms and ran a hand through her naturally teal-colored hair. She yawned as she stood up off of the couch, popping her back and letting the blood flow through her body. She was wearing an oversized t shirt that she had borrowed from Harry for sleepwear, the shirt big enough to act as a gown on her. As far as she knew, Harry wasn't awake, so strolled into the kitchen, secretly wishing to find Kiveean Gorkstew...a delicacy on her planet. But alas, that wasn't an option...all there was was Coco Puffs. (@JacobLoL )
 
Harry awoke to the sound of a lawn mower, the sound was coming from next door. This was his first night home in about a a month and a half due to the UFC championships, he had made it into the the finals which started in 2 more months. He sat up and started to stretch, pain shot around his body, he had dark bruises on his right rib cage, left shoulder, a cut above his left eye and another dark bruise on his left hip. He was used to these injuries but that didnt stop them from hurting. He stood up, ignoring the pain and left his bedroom, only wearing his shorts, it may have been due to just waking up but he had temporarily forgotten about Amaria.


Harry's house was quite nice and expensive, state of the art although lately he hadnt been there much. As he reached the kitchen he jumped at the site of the blue haired woman who had landed in his backyard only 2 months ago. Even though she had been living at his house for two months, he still didnt know to much about here due to the fact that he had been gone for most of that time.


"Jesus Amaria, I had forgotten you were here" He said smirking. She was wearing one of his shirts which was like a gown to her. He noticed the blankets and covering on the couch. "Are you still sleeping on the couch?"


He thought he had told her she could sleep in his bed while he was gone although maybe he didnt? he couldnt remember to well.
 
Harry's jumping startled her. "Goodness, you scared me..." she said, hand over her heart. "And yes...it's comfortable enough, and your bed is yours...it wouldn't feel right taking it from you when you're gone." She said. She poured a bowl of Coco Puffs, not using milk. She took a spoonful and ate it. She took her bowl and moved to the table, sitting down at it to eat. "So, Harry..how does it feel to be home after so long? You were gone for some time...and I'm still unclear as to why you humans have fighting listed as a sport in which you take time in." She said, eating another spoonful of cereal.
 
Harry was glad that Amaria had been okay without him, he been worried about leaving her alone as she wasn't even from earth. He stocked the cupboards and refrigerator before he had left and told her not to go outside, he hoped that being confined to a house for 2 months hadn't hurt her in any way. "It hurts" Harry replied to Amaria, his bruises were very visible without a shirt on, he wondered if Kiveean's bruised as easily. He gave a small laugh at here confusion about fighting as a sport "It's fun and challenging, to be better than your opponent" He replied grabbing a bowl and pouring himself some cereal as he sat down across from Amaria.
 
"Odd. Back on my planet, fighting is done as a last resort." She admitted. Amaria found UFC and MMA to be barbaric and confusing...she didn't understand it one bit. Why fight for fun? Kiveean soldiers were always taught that fighting is a an art...not a game like Earthlings make it out to be. She quickly finished off her bowl of cereal and proceeded to wash her dish. She glanced back at Harry at the table, observing his cuts and bruises that were visible. Why are they so dark...purple...She thought to herself. Amaria wasn't used to this...she had a lot to learn. "Any plans now that you're back home?"
 
"Yeah, getting you some proper clothes" Harry said. As far as he knew, Amaria was stuck on earth and she couldnt just stay in his house forever, she had to learn to adapt which meant she would need normal earth clothes and not his. "Clothes that females on earth wear" He added as she didnt really know what people wore on earth and she may even be thinking that it was normal to wear his clothes out on the street.
 
Amaria had been 'locked up' in Harry's house all this time...she didn't know how to use the internet on Earth. She had something just like in on Kivee, but it was different...and the television scared her. Kind of funny, actually. So...she had never seen a common female on Earth, let alone what they wear. "Is it uncustomary for women to wear the clothing of men? And...what's wrong with what I was wearing when I came to Earth?" She asked, confused. She had referred to a lightly armored jumpsuit, covered in native Kivee markings and symbols, looking like something out of a SyFy Original movie on Earth.
 
"No it's not, Women wear women's clothes and men wear mens clothes" He replied to Amaria. He chuckled a little bit when she mentioned her own clothes. He remembered her standing in his backyard armored space suit or whatever it was, she would of immediately been arrested and maybe have ended up in some sort of lab if she wore that out on the street, humans were a cruel race and Harry knew it. "Uh, most people on earth arent used to that sort of clothing". After he finished his cereal Harry quickly went up stairs to get dressed and look for any clothes that Amaria could wear while they were out (to get her new clothes). He thought about leaving her there but he thought it good if she explored earth a little, plus, how often did an alien land in your back yard? Well - he didnt know if alien was the right word as Kiveeans seemed like distant relatives of humans.
 
Amaria was baffled--humans didn't wear armor? How in the universe do they manage? She quickly joined Harry upstairs after he was fully dressed. She walked in his room as he searched for something for her to wear. "Going out?" She asked him curiously as she took a few steps in his direction.
 
Harry put on a blue long sleeved plaid shirt and a pair of black jeans, he had a alot of clothes but they were all, well, for him. Going out was always a little annoying for Harry as he was always.. noticed. "Going out?" He turned to see Amaria enter his room. Could he still take her out? He was in truth somewhat famous. "Uh.." He said as he thought of what to do. "Yes, we both are" He said after a few seconds, He supposed it wouldn't be to bad and besides he wasnt always recognized in public. As he continued searching through his closet he found a casual white shirt with the letter UFC On the front, it was to small for him now as he had received it when he was 18, he supposed it would fit Amaria. He also found a long womens coat, he looked at it funnily as he didnt remember how he gotten it and convieniantley not too far from the coat was a pair of also womens jeans. He frowned at the clothing but concluded that it must of been left over from one of his former girlfriends which had to be over a year ago.


He grabbed the clothes in his arms and handed them to Amaria "Here, you can put these on in the bathroom" he said. He wasnt sure if she would even be able to do it as she was still extremely foreign to the culture of Earth.
 
Amaria gratefully took the clothes Harry offered her. She noticed the jeans were meant to obviously fit a woman. "Hmm...these are female pants. Does your possession of them mean you at once were a female?" She asked, naive thoughts in her mind. Before he could answer, she headed to the bathroom and quickly changed into the clothes. They fit well enough. Made her look like a tomboy. She re-entered Harry's bedroom after she was dressed. "Well...do I appear to be from Earth?" She asked.


(Apologies for the late post, my internet is a bitch)
 
((I managed to quickly write this, now i have to go!))


Harry smiled as Amaria walked off to the bathroom to change. She was so "clueless" about how things worked on earth. He also really enjoyed having the company of someone who wasnt so.. normal. Harry grabbed his phone and wallet and by the time he had left his bedroom Amaria had reappeared wearing the clothes he had given her. They were quite good quality clothes, people were extremely cosmetic orientated in this part of Los Angeles but they did make her look a little like a tomboy. "Yeah, you look good" He replied as they walked through the house towards the front door.

(baiii! seeya when you're back!)


She nodded, still questioning if he used to be a "she", for that was common on Kivee. In fact, her mother was born a male, then became a female, then went back to being male, and became female again and gave birth to Amaria and her brother. The science on her planet allows gender re-assignment to be complete, so you're 100% whenever you change, and you can change back at any time. Funky science! She followed Harry out as they walked through the front door of the house, the bright sun making her squint and shield her eyes. This is the first time she's been outside in 2 months. The outside air on Earth was a little thinner than on Kivee, but she quickly adapted, it's a seamless transition, really. "So...where exactly do we go? To do whatever we planned to, I mean."
 
Harry noticed Amaria squint at the sunlight, maybe he shouldn't of kept her in doors for 2 months. "Here" He said to Amaria as he pulled out his keys, opening the garage door automatically to reveal a very smooth and very expensive silver colored car. "This is how you get places faster than walking on earth" He said smiling as he walked over and opened the passenger seat, gesturing for Amaria to get in.

Amaria nodded, hopping in the passenger seat. "On Kivee, we have similar machines...only they were bigger, and they flew above ground, not roving on wheels." She said. Hover cars, basically...another technological advancement n her planet Earth didn't have. She closed the door, examining the interior of the vehicle.


(Sooo when you went to work yesterday, it was midnight here xD I think we have a biiiit of a time difference lol)
 
"Wow" Harry mumbled to himself, Hover cars? that was cool. He closed the door after Amaria and walked around to the drivers seat, getting in. The large building of the city of Los Angeles were in view. It was less than a 5 minute drive to get to the city from his house in West Hollywood, they could of gone to Beverely hills or Hollywood but Harry though better of it as thats where he mostly got recognized.


"So" Harry started as they drove down the road "How exactly did you get.. here?"
 
Amaria shrugged. "Well...it's a long story." She said. "I took a ship...a small vessel from Kivee that was created for individual travel to distant worlds. I...came here for my own reasons. A mission...classified, really." She answered, not able to tell of her mission. She cleared her throat, looking at all the buildings as they passes by them. "Fascinating...the architecture of Earth is similar to my planet...only I don't see any of the Guard Bots, about as tall as that place over there." She said, gesturing to a tall--and I mean tall--office building.
 
Harry nodded, it wasnt a huge surprise that she was here on some sort of assignment, even for another race, her jumpsuit that she was wearing when he found her was a little militarized. He raised an eyebrow as she mentioned Guard Bots that were the size of large office building. "Yeah, we dont any of those" He those he replied, Kivee sounded sort of like an advanced version of earth with a few weird customs.
 
Amaria continued her onlooking at all the buildings, vehicles, and people as Harry drove them through town. "Oh my...the plant life is beautiful." She commented, hinting at the palm trees off in the distance. Plants on Kivee weren't as pretty...they actually looked like giant cardboard cacti. Nothing against cactus...but Kivee just had ugly plants.
 
"Yeah, it's nice" Harry said looking at the palm trees, to him they were just normal since he had been living in Los Angeles for so long. After a few more minutes of driving, Harry pulled up into a parking space just outside a large mall, there were dozens of people on the streets outside. He turned to Amaria "Okay, before we get out i have to tell you" He paused "Dont tell anyone where your from - just let me do the talking" The last thing he'd want is for that to appear on todays TMZ.
 
She nodded. "I know not to reveal anything...that was part of my instruction for the mission." She replied. She fiddled with the door, not knowing how to unlock it manually, there wasn't a hand-swipe system like on Kivee...she was so confused by Earth tech. Once she finally figured it out, she unlocked it and stepped out of the car, glancing at all the people.
 
((Sorry, ive been really busy! Will reply soon!))


 
Harry stepped out of the car. The mall was busy today which probably wasnt to great. He doubted that Amaria would stand out to much or that anyone would really care. He walked over to Amaria "This is called a mall, its where you buy things" He said, as he wasnt sure if they had malls where she was from.


((Sorry, got bad writers block :/ been busy too, ill try reply alot more!))
 
Amaria nodded. "Looks like a marketplace on Kivee...only bigger...and taller." She said, starting to walk to the front doors with Harry. Walking through the front doors, she was amazed...it was more advanced than she expected. "What odd store names...Hot Topic, Forever 21, Sears, strange indeed." She said.


 
(Yayy it's back on xp)
