BIO
she was ten years old when it started. ten when everything changed. ten when both her parents turned into monsters and it was suddenly just her and elias and alyssa. and everything was terrifying. the world was a completely different place. the three of them fared well enough for a while. they got out of the city, heading instead for a cabin their family owned and had visited every summer for as long as she could remember. it wasn’t long before she started to forget what things used to look like. what the world had been. what their parents had looked like and sounded like. the way the neighbor’s dog would jump up and down on the other side of the fence while she’d jumped on the trampoline. everything was terrifying. she was hungry a lot. thirsty a lot. none of the siblings was especially gifted at foraging for food, so elias and alyssa would head down every couple of months in search of supplies while vanessa stayed behind.
they managed well enough for a few years. they were aided by another small group who’d gone to the mountains in order to escape the madness of the world. they taught the stones how to handle weapons. how to hunt. how to survive. then one day they had news: they were leaving to join a group that was searching for a cure. trying to handle things differently than the military. they offered to take the teenagers with them, and they agreed. there was a small outpost in colorado where they ended up. vanessa was enrolled in school again, though she didn’t stick it out. when she was 14 she elected to join the fireflies as a full member. she and elias were soon two of the top fighters at the outpost, though alyssa felt differently and joined up with a passing caravan in hopes of something different.
vanessa was 22 when the outpost fell. most of her friends were killed. most of her mentors were killed. and those who weren’t moved on, joining up with the nearest outpost. in this case it was salt lake city. the outpost was smaller but there was plenty of encouraging news coming out, so elias and vanessa stayed with the other survivors. until they were ambushed on the road and just about everyone else was killed. elias was left with a broken arm and vanessa was in far worse shape. the two hid out in an abandoned shack doing their best to survive until a group of ex-fireflies passed through on their way to a settlement in jackson county, wyoming. they invited the siblings to join them and helped transport vanessa. she doesn’t remember much about the next couple of months, but next thing she knew it was winter and they were warm and safe and she didn’t feel like she was dying.
she was left with trouble walking due to an injury to her right hip and significant scarring on the same side from burns. elias found a place in the community immediately, helping with patrols, and hunting --- even managing to lend a hand with school-aged children. meanwhile vanessa fell into a deep depression and didn’t bond with anybody but her brother. it was two years before she really started joining in with town activities and participating. her hip made it difficult to do any of the fighting she was used to, so she found herself bonding with the town’s resource manager. he was old and kind ( though he often joked about how he was the one who should have a bad hip, not vanessa, which prompted an eye-roll and a smile every time without fail ). the two became close. he told vanessa stories about how the world used to be and introduced her to the best music and movies. she was his number two and was almost like the father she could barely remember. when he passed, vanessa took over his job and now is in charge of keeping track of all of the community’s supplies and making sure they’re going after the things they need most and allocating what they have correctly. she’s far easier to get along with than she was in the beginning though she struggles to open up --- once she does though? you might as well consider her your best friend.
