Alors que son alarme sonnait à haute voix, Nina maudit silencieusement le morceau de technologie d'occasion. C'était lundi, ce qui signifiait l'école. C'est bien. Un autre jour d'avoir des informations entassés dans sa gorge et d'être forcé de la régurgiter sur papier pour le bien d'une lettre. Elle soupira, roula les yeux et sortit du lit. Elle a couru ses doigts dans ses cheveux et l'a mis dans un petit pain lâche. Elle avait besoin d'une douche, mal, après la journée de travail d'hier. L'odeur du café s'est accrochée à elle comme de l'eau de Cologne bon marché qui ne sortirait pas peu importe la quantité qu'elle a lavée. Elle avait besoin d'un nouveau boulot. Cependant, ce n'était pas comme des emplois pour les adolescents du secondaire poussaient sur des arbres dans cette ville.
Elle savait qu'elle était debout plus tôt que Petyr, comme d'habitude. Nina s'était toujours levée tôt pour préparer le petit déjeuner et le déjeuner pour elle et son frère depuis qu'ils avaient environ six ans. Ça voulait dire que la salle de bains était à elle. Ce n'est pas qu'elle prendrait du temps. Les douches froides n'ont jamais été très amusantes, et elle a essayé de les rendre rapides. Telles étaient les avantages de leur belle vieille maison.
Quinze minutes plus tard, elle était sortie de la douche et enveloppée dans sa robe sainte. Elle a rembourré dans sa chambre pieds nus et a fermé la porte. Elle regarda dans son placard et regarda son calendrier. Le 15 était encerclé de rouge et avait un mémo dessus. "Assemblée commémorative." Oui, c'était encore à cette époque de l'année. L'assemblée annuelle pour le mémorial de ceux qui ont perdu la vie à cause de ce redoutable tueur. Elle savait que Tess et Everett auraient besoin d'un ami, mais serait-ce elle? Dans le cas de Tess, probablement pas. Tess avait poussé Nina loin pendant des mois, et avait commencé à traîner plus avec Jay et Moon. Nina comprenait, mais c'était douloureux pour elle aussi. Ils avaient tous les deux perdu Jan, et maintenant elle perdait Tess aussi. Sa main droite a couru sur le bracelet d'amitié fait main sur son poignet gauche, par habitude. Elle semblait le faire quand elle pensait à Tess.
Elle secoua la tête et sortit une simple paire de jeans et une chemise bleue. Le jean avait des trous dans les genoux, et la chemise a été déchirée à l'ourlet inférieur. "L'amour. Je me demande qui se moquera de mes vêtements aujourd'hui. Yay vêtements d'occasion. Peu importe. Épargnez plutôt mon argent pour l'université." Elle s'est habillée rapidement et est descendue et a commencé à retirer de la nourriture du frigo. Elle a mis un récipient de farine d'avoine de nuit dehors, et l'a sauté dans une poêle et l'a mis sur le poêle pour le réchauffer un peu. Pendant que la farine d'avoine s'échauffait, elle s'apprêtait à préparer des déjeuners pour Petyr et elle-même. Elle a remarqué un petit mot sur le frigo et l'a sorti.
"Merci pour le déjeuner, chérie. Désolé de ne pas être là avant mercredi. J'ai eu un gros boulot qui m'a demandé d'aller dans le Nord quelques jours. Je sais que toi et ton frère allez bien. "Mon amour, papa."
Nina soupira et jeta la note dans les ordures. Ce n'était pas inhabituel pour Silvester Jelen d'être sur de gros travaux de bois pendant quelques jours. C'était la vie d'un bûcheron pour toi. Cependant, elle avait espéré que son père serait là pour le mémorial. Sur ce train de pensée, elle a pensé s'arrêter pour voir Mme Gray demain. Bien sûr, elle et Tess ne s'entendaient pas en ce moment, mais la mère de Tess avait été une grande partie de la vie de Nina et Petyr.
Elle est allée à l'escalier et a appelé. "Petit! Le petit déjeuner se réchauffe et les déjeuners sont faits! J'espère que vous serez bientôt à terre!" Elle est retournée à la cuisine et a sorti des bols pour les deux, ainsi que le sucre brun. Ce n'était jamais vraiment de la farine d'avoine pour elle sans sucre brun.

|In Depth Appearance|
Standing at five foot four, Nina doesn’t tend to stand out amongst a crowd of her peers. She has brown/auburn hair, which reaches to her mid back and is usually loosely braided. She tends to wear a lot of dark eyeliner, liking the smoky eye effect it gives. She is never seen without her red leather jacket, which she wears over all her clothing. Tends to like wearing darker colors, feeling comfortable blending into the shadows than standing out. She is rather thin, with a cheerleader sort of build, but was more into gymnastics as a child, giving her the lithe figure she has now as a young woman. She has a handmade friendship bracelet that she always wears on her left wrist. It was a gift from Tessa, one of her oldest friends that isn't related to her.

Delving Deeper
|Personality|
♦ Quiet ♦ Abrasive ♦ Loyal ♦ Athletic ♦
Nina has always been the rather quiet child most of her life, preferring to keep behind her brother, and let him do most of the talking. It was found out quickly that she could speak her mind, having a quick tongue. (Possibly from her mother, as her father once told her.) She was quite good at making quick strikes with her words. However, she was very loyal to her friends and family, and would never tolerate an unkind word against them. Her best friend in the world is still her twin brother, Petyr.
She became a bit of an athlete as a child, getting into gymnastics at the local YMCA. She could never afford to go very far with those athletic pursuits, but continued to learn and practice where she could. She was very disappointed that the local high school had no gymnastics team, and when she tried out for Cheerleaders they sneered at her for her ‘outlandish’ style. This caused her to withdraw more, avoiding the party scene at school. 
|History|
Nina’s story starts right at her birth. As her mother was giving birth to Nina and Petyr complications arose with the birth. The twins were born healthy, but their mother gave her life on the table, leaving the twins alone in the world with only each other and their father, Silvester. Silvester, not sure how to handle the children, and also due to the needs of raising two children, ended up working many hours as a lumberjack in Verona. This caused the twins to become reliant on each other, since they were mostly home alone most of the time. They both stepped up, learning how to take care of the house, and various chores. Nina discovered a love of cooking at young age, and took over those duties as they grew.
However, without a mother, Nina never really gained what one would call ‘womanly instincts.’ She had to learn much about growing up as a girl from either books, the internet or her best friends Tess and Jan's mother, Mrs. Gray. Her brother tried to help where he could, but there were areas they were both ignorant in.
At about age seven, she started learning gymnastics at the local YMCA, and made some friends that way. However, as she got older, and the money got tighter in the family, she had to give up the sport, and resorted to practicing at home alone. She grew more introverted, and angry. However, it wasn’t at any one in particular, just more the world. For taking away her mother. For leaving her feeling awkward all the time. For leaving her without many friends.
At fifteen, when they legally could, both she and her brother got part-time jobs working at the local coffee shop. After doing that for almost three years, she pretty much hates coffee in all shape and form at this point. However, it pays well, and at this point since she has been there three years, she gets tipped well by regulars. However, her dream is to go off to college somewhere better, and is working her butt off on trying to get scholarships to any college she can. However, she is unsure of what her brother wants, and would not so easily abandon him.
At fifteen Nina figured out that she liked people, and wasn’t limited to what was just in their pants. However, she keeps herself in the closet for now, not sure how her father or brother would respond. She is sure that Petyr would support her, but she still is a bit scare of how everyone in their small town would react.
Recently has been on no speaking terms with one of her friends, Tessa. After Janice was killed, Tessa started pulling away, and since a recent incident that happened before summer began, Tess has been seemingly ignoring the twins, and Nina's texts.
|Family|
Silvester Jelen, Father. Age 47. Silvester raised his son and daughter the best he could on his own, however his work schedule was rather demanding and left the twins alone quite often. Nina does not see herself all that close to her father, but still loves him and would do anything for him.
Petyr Jelen, brother. Age 17. Nina’s best friend, and constant companion. They were born only seven minutes apart, but have not really separated from one another for very long. They always have each other’s backs, even if there are secrets they keep from each other. (Nina keeps her tattoo and love of girls quiet for now.)

My Superpower
|Power Name|
Pyrokinesis
|Power Description|
The ability to manipulate/ control fire. However, she can not set fires herself, just manipulate fire once it exists. 
|Abilities|
Nina can manipulate and control any fire that already exists. She can use this to help make a fire grow, move, or put it out if she so wanted. She can also make fire take any shape she wants, like a small flower, or a large dragon. However, trying to make a dragon larger than herself would go out of control quickly and make for a lot of wildfires.
|Drawbacks/Weaknesses|
If the fire is bigger than the size a fire in the fireplace, it can get out of her control easily. Prolonged use of her powers can result in nosebleeds and blackouts. (Sustained use over a period of a half-hour or more.)
