Violet Fire and Roses

Violet POV.

Let me tell you a bit about the earth, not the one you know, it's not all white and black, it's not a straight road, I don't care about your ethnicity, or what your religion is, everyone else might, but not me. The life that I know is completely different from everyone else, I don't give two damn about who the new president is, I don't pay much attention to any drama, I don't live under a rock, I'm still on Earth, but the thing is I don't belong here anymore.

Area fifty-one, aliens, UFO, they all are real, but they aren't that common, people aren't supposed to know about them, but I do, and they are real. They wanted to learn about earth, about our habits and genetics, but humans are way too scared for that, they decided to make a deal with us, we'd give them one of ours, well more than one.

We'd give them some of ours, they have volunteered some of us, we didn't have the real choice here, people who wouldn't be missed, kids that are unwanted. But our human bodies couldn't take being in space, their planet wasn't made for us, we were too weak and fragile, and so they had to change their plans. Instead of taking us straight to their planet, they taught us about it first, they started to get our bodies ready for the trip, we were genetically modified until we could make it there.

But they didn't want a normal human, since we couldn't make it there, they came over and studied us, things we had different, they don't have kids, they don't grow old, they don't change, they are created adults, they never go through childhood, they don't go through parenthood, they are just them! And that's a big thing for them, to have kids, but they can't take real kids from earth, instead, they take adults, ones that could take living in their planet.
