Always On Time @ 09:51 pm
Alerron has flow all over Earth in the short time he's been on the planet, but his attentions always return to Coast City and a place in the city that he learned to recognize the first time he followed Lifeforce from high above the world. He was still getting used to all of the blessings afforded him by X'Hal, when he noticed that Lifeforce returned to the same place each day at a specific time. It also surprised him to find Henry there, along with Katima. He wanted to speak with her, but there was a chance of coming across the Naltorian, who also resided with them, and Alerron didn't want that at all.
So, between saving people where he could, he found himself returning to the same spot, high above the world and practiced focusing his vision. The clarity with which he could see from his height still startled and amazed him, and he often followed Katima and her friend's journeys from what he assumed to be their home and another complex each day.
Today, Alerron watched, and listened, as chimes sounded and hundreds of teenagers moved about the complex. It took him little time to establish that this was a school, not unlike his training habitat on Okara. There were daily battles, lessons, and a feeding period.
To better understand Katima's new world, Alerron kept his vision focused upon her throughout the day, spending hours watching her.
No, he did not consider this stalking in any fashion; it was quite the opposite.
He was watching out for an old friend.
