Background/History
Allura was born to Aurora Xiangma and an unnamed father in Beijing, China, Earth. She lived there with her mother until about age 7, then they left Earth for Arcturus V due to some trouble Aurora would never tell her. They moved to Woodlands after her mother landed a job as a waitress at a good paying restaurant. Allura was enrolled in Woodlands Elementary, and wound up being bullied because she could barely speak Arcturean, or Universal English. She was only able to speak a handful of words not in Chinese. She was rescued from some bullies by a young girl named Allie, who scared off the bullies by threatening them in some way that Allura couldn't understand. Allura and Allie became close friends, and Allie helped Allura learn Universal first, at least enough to her age group, though Allura still can understand maybe 2-3 words of Arcturean, Universal has been taught standard in Arcturean schools for 200 years so it's not like it's required. Allura's been comfortably settling into her life, her school, though she still only has Allie as a friend, she's content...until she realizes she starts to develop feelings for the mare. .
