BEST MEMORY Olivia sat in the lounge area, looking out the window at a tree that had squirrels running up and down it. It seemed to be like every other day, but soon it became different than the other days when she heard a woman talk to one of the people that worked at the foster care center. She heard the woman saying that she wanted to adopt a child. She quickly looked over at the woman and saw that she was quite beautiful and appeared to be friendly. A few minutes passed before the pretty woman turned to look at her and smiled. Olivia wasn't sure what she should do so she just sat there, staring.
The woman came over to her and asked when she was close enough, "May I sit down?" Olive nodded and watched as the woman sat down. There was a moment of silence before the woman began to speak again. "So, you probably heard me talking to that man about me wanting to adopt a child. I was wondering, would you like to come home with me?" As she said this, she smiled at her, the light shining from the sun outside making her eyes sparkle a little bit.
"Really?" Olivia asked, stunned, but also extremely excited. She couldn't believe that someone was taking an interest in her, especially at her age. Usually, they went for the younger children since they tended to be more innocent than the older ones.
"Yeah, really," Erika said, laughing a little.
"Sure, I would love to come home with you," she said, practically bouncing in her seat from the excitement she felt. She couldn't believe this was actually happening. She had dreamed of this day since the accident and it was actually happening.
WORST MEMORY Olivia was laying in a bed, that she knew for sure, but she wasn't sure where she was, because she hadn't opened her eyes yet. She was afraid to. She knew that something had happened before she was knocked unconscious, that there was a car crash, but she was afraid that something bad had happened to her parents. Her five year old mind wasn't sure what she would find when she opened her eyes. She was hoping that her parents were nearby, possibly getting something to eat or maybe sitting somewhere close by like they usually did when she was having a bad dream.
After a few minutes, she forced her eyes open and looked around, but didn't find her parents. "Mommy? Daddy?" she called out in her innocent, childlike voice as she slowly sat up. When they didn't come, she began to scream their names and began to cry, wanting her mommy and daddy. They didn't come, though. Instead, a female nurse did and the woman tried to soothe her, tried to calm her down, but she didn't want to calm down. She wanted her parents. "Where are they?" she asked the nurse when she could make the words come out between the sobs that racked her body.
"They're in Heaven, sweetheart. I'm so sorry," the nurse said as she continued to comfort her as she cried. Soon, all the tears were spent and Olivia laid back down on the hospital bed, staring up at the ceiling, sad and confused. How had this happened? Everything had been going perfect? They had been going for ice cream when that car slammed into them. They couldn't be dead, they just couldn't be. She continued to mull this over until she was too tired to keep her eyes open.
LONG-TERM GOAL Her long-term goal is to be able to control her power when she begins her time at the Academy.

MOTHER Kathryn Opal Wolf, Deceased, Earth Elemental.
FATHER Damien Jeremiah Wolf, Deceased, Water Elemental.
SIBLINGS None
OTHER Erika _ _ (25-35), Olivia's guardian.
HISTORY Olivia Wolf was born on October 1 to Damien and Kathryn Wolf. Her parents were full-blooded elementals and she ended up being one as well. For the first few years, everything was perfect. She had loving parents, they lived in a beautiful middle class home, and she had plenty of friends. She was living the typical life for a little girl.
Then, when she was five years old, she and her parents got in a car accident that was so severe that she was in the hospital for a couple of weeks and her parents died at the crash site. When she woke up for the first time at the hospital, she had cried out for her mom and dad, but they wouldn't come to her. She later was told by a female nurse that they had went to Heaven and she had cried until she couldn't cried anymore. She couldn't believe that she wouldn't see her parents when she woke up in the morning anymore or have them be there when she had a bad dream.
Once she was well enough, a social worker took her to her first foster home, but the family that she was placed with soon decided that they didn't want her so they sent her back and got another child that was younger. Things continued like this for a long time. Years passed and she kept getting moved from one foster home to the next and she was starting to believe that nobody wanted a child that had been through what she had went through. Why buy damaged goods when you can get something better, right?
When she started puberty, she began to notice changes. She was more intuned to the earth, could sometimes make things happen, like have a dying flower bloom, but that was only if she concentrated hard enough, and the other children that lived with her in her various foster homes began to withdraw from her, because they sensed that she was different. A part of her was scared of these changes, but another part, a more dominant part, of her was excited and curious. She began to try out different things when she was by herself. When she was gardening in the garden one of her foster homes had, she would try to make the plants grow faster. Most of the time it didn't work, but sometimes it did and she would be absolutely ecstatic when this happened. She wanted to explore more of this ability that she appeared to have and was really enjoying it.
A few months ago, she had been sitting by herself in the lounge area of the foster care center, waiting to be placed in a new foster home, when a woman named Erika stopped by. She didn't really notice her at first since Olivia didn't expect to get adopted anytime soon so she was surprised when the woman came up to her and asked if she could sit down. She had nodded and the woman sat down across from her. They talked for a bit before Erika asked her if she would like to get adopted by her. Olivia was shocked that somebody would actually want to adopt her, but the shock soon wore off and she just felt so happy as she nodded and said that she would like to get adopted by this woman. The woman had smiled and said that she would get the paperwork finished and then she would take her home. While the woman walked off, Olive sat there, happiness feeling her up at the thought of her actually leaving this place and being with someone that might actually love her.
After the paperwork was done, Erika helped her pack and put her things in the car she owned. After they were finished getting her things in the trunk and backseat, the two women got in the front seats and put on their seatbelts. While Erika drove, Olivia sometimes talked to her, but mostly watched the scenery change or sleep. Finally, they arrived in Maple Hollow and she helped Erika take her things inside. While helping her, she noticed that this town was different than the other ones she had been to. For one, the town was surrounded by a gate and had a guard at the entrance that checked the people IDs. Secondly, she just sensed that she would belong here.
A few weeks passed before Erika found out about her powers and the woman asked Olive if she knew what an Elemental was. She had said that she didn't and Erika explained to her what it was and that she was one. At first, she didn't believe it, but once she had time to think she realized that the woman was right. It would explain her powers and her connection to the earth. Once she had time to think and take this in, Erika told her that there was a school that was close by that elemental children went to so that they could learn how to control and use their powers. She had asked if she would want to start there when the new school year began and Olivia agreed to it. She was nervous and slightly scared, though. She had just found a person that she could start to open up to and now she had to go to a whole new place? What if Erika left her like all of the other people that had said that they wanted her did? She soon told herself not to think like that, that Erika was different, and she is now just trying to get used to her new life in Maple Hollow. She is hoping that everything will turn out fine, that she wouldn't get hurt again by the people that she cares about or lose anyone again. It would just break her heart if this happened.

RP SAMPLE(From Nightmare)
When Nell motioned for her to sit down in a recliner, she did and watched as Nell sat down on the couch. She noticed that her hands were clasped together on her knees and knew that she was nervous. However, she didn't say anything. She just waited for Nell to speak. Then the words 'I can't talk to you anymore' crushed into her and she caught her breath as she looked at Nell with a shocked expression on her face. She must be hearing wrong, she must be. Nell would never tell her that, not after all they've been through. Nell wouldn't be pushing her away, wouldn't be trying to drive her away, yet here she was doing just that.
She sat there in shock as Nell continued. She looked up at Nell as she said that it was too dangerous and that she didn't want to put her in any more danger. She shook her head, wanting to say anything to convince Nell that she can take care of herself now, that she was stronger now than she had been before, but before she could speak Nell was going on with her goodbye speech. She listened to Nell say that she loved her, but they couldn't speak to each other until she got Mia to go away. Suddenly anger she never experienced before burst through her and it was so much like that anger she had felt towards Mia when she was being tortured by her, but it was more heightened and was directed at the situation.
Unable to remain sitting, she jumped to her feet and began to pace. After a few minutes, she turned back to Nell and said as tears of sorrow and anger streamed down her face, "I don't care how many times Mia kidnaps me and tortures me. I don't care how much being around you puts me in danger. I love you and I will not stand aside and watch you walk away. I refuse to. You're my best friend, the closest thing to family I have and I will not lose you, too. I don't care if I have to kill Mia myself in order to keep you with me, I will do it in a second. That is how much I care about you and how much I hate her." As she finished speaking, she looked at Nell with an almost feral look of anger and she nearly vibrated with it. Her breathing was quick, her hands were balled into fists, and her crying had ceased. She looked as if she might run out and murder Mia at any moment. She looked like she might let herself go to the dark side just for an instant if it meant that she could keep herself with Nell without having to worry about Mia tearing them apart.
