However, while this trait could be somewhat admirable, it also has its downside. Anya's independence tends to lead to a stubbornness that can prove to be quite annoying for those trying to get her to do something that she may not want to do. She can be persuaded, but it takes a lot of patience and you must be prepared to answer questions she may have.

However, it seems unleash a witty side of Anya, as well as an honest side of her, which comes in handy if you ever want an honest friend.

BRAVE! Anya is the kind of girl that won't let others walk all over her. She finds it easy to state her opinion and stand up for herself as well as others. She believes that life is too short to cower below others that think they are better than everyone else, so she doesn't let them.

HISTORY !

Anastasia was the the second youngest child of five born to Nicolas and Alexandra Romanov in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Nicolas had inherited a large fortune and a chain of hotels located in both Russia and the rest of the world. The Romanov's didn't take their wealth and success for granted and were quite grounded for their circumstances, however this did not prevent others from being jealous of the impact the Romanov's had on the hotel business.

Nicolas's half brother was the most jealous of them all and was outraged that their father had chosen to pass the fortune on to Nicolas instead of him, despite the fact that Nicolas was the eldest. However, the half brother was a little mad and obsessed with power. After many times of trying to bully Nicolas out of the hotel business, the half brother did something drastic by lighting the Romanov family home on fire while the family was sleeping. Anastasia was eight when this occurred. Some of the Romanov family were lost in the fire and some were killed trying to escape the home by the half brother himself. Being as adventurous as she was, Anastasia knew all the secret passage ways of her family estate and managed to make it out alive. She escaped through the forest surrounding their home, but tripped on a tree root, knocking her head on a rock. She fell unconscious and was forgotten, assumed dead by all the world.

The knock on the head had caused Anastasia some memory lost, erasing most of her life prior the traumatic experience. Although she could not remember them, Anastasia had been devastated when she discovered (from the police and other sources) that all her family, but her grandmother had been murdered. Her grandmother was moved to the Romanov Hotel in Fantasia City for her own safety because the wild Romanov was still on the loose. She too, thought Anastasia and the rest of her family to be dead.

Anastasia moved from foster home to foster home until she was eighteen. She soon moved to Fantasia City after discovering that she had relatives there, her grandmother in particular. However, it's a big city. Anastasia was forced to get a job and hang tight during her search. It has now been three years and Anastasia is still on the search. There are many hotels in the city and Anastasia knows that her grandmother wouldn't been running the business at her age. Will Anastasia ever have a family again?

SAMPLE !

Derek never got a day off. If he wasn't working at the mechanic shop, he was protecting his pack as alpha wolf. He was always ready to protect his pack in case danger were to come their way. Not only was it his duty, but his pack was also his family. Among his pack was his younger brother and sister, who he loved dearly, but didn't know how to show it. He would make an attempt to show that he was there for them by protecting them, but he seemed to go the wrong way about it. Most of the time he came off as a bossy leader.

Today had been a bad day for the pack. Derek and his brother had yet another argument, which involved the two of them transforming into their wolf forms and brawling to sort out their differences. His brother had told Derek to stop trying to be like their father. It had hit a nerve for Derek, seeing as their father had been murdered by hunters. With Derek being the eldest of the Austen children, it was his birthright and duty to step up to the plate as alpha of the pack. Eventually their sister had to break up the fight, watching the two brothers as they stormed off towards different directions after they transformed back into humans.

Derek had stormed off towards the Delaware River, a place where he and his father used to go fishing. He wandered along the bank of the river, kicking rocks out of his path with frustration. He would need to calm himself down before he could return to the house. He knew his brothers anger truly hadn't been towards him and that Derek had been simply someone to take his anger out on. However, what he said was a slap across the face for Derek. He wasn't trying to be his father at all. He only wished to follow his lead and do his father proud and a lot of the time Derek was doubtful of his own capabilities.

Derek did not know how long he had been walking for, but all of his angry thoughts evaporated as he noticed the young girl, crying at the trunk of a tree. Derek, stopped in his tracks for moment, pondering on how to handle the situation. Should he simply turn back to avoid any awkwardness between them or see what was wrong? Derek was torn. While he wasn't usually one who was for dealing with emotions, his instinctive leader capabilities kicked in, even though he didn't have a clue as to who this girl was. Derek sighed and began making his way towards the way he had originally intended to go, pretending that he had not seen the girl.

When he reached her, he stopped, looking down at her then out towards the river. "Wow. I guess I'm not the only one having a bad day." He state with a touch of humor, trying to lighten the situation. Looking back at her once more, Derek noticed the pile of empty beer cans lying on the ground. This girl had clearly drowned out her problems with a large amount of alcohol. Frankly, he didn't blame her. Sometimes he felt like drinking away his problems, but he didn't, knowing that he wouldn't be doing any good towards the pack if he did.
