HISTORY Zoey came from a long line of wind elementals. Her parents were wind elementals, her parents' parents and so on and so forth. So she was aware of the secret life of elements from the very beginning and her parents lived near Maple Hollow. She had a history there. Growing up near the town of Maple Hollow but also in a town with humans allowed Zoey the opportunity to experience both worlds.

When Zoey turned 13, because of her early birthday, she started showing signs of her abilities so she started attending the academy in January. She spent her years studying and getting good grades. She practiced every day and she kept to her work like any good student. She occasionally let her hair down and had fun with her friends, but nothing major, and she really didn't get into any trouble during her stay.

When she graduated high school, she decided that she wanted to continue her education at the Academy. With a job in Maple Hollow and with her parent's help, she was able to afford the tuition. She focused her studies in Education because she wanted to follow in her mother's footsteps and become a teacher. She wasn't sure if she wanted to teach at the Academy (pending her acceptance) or at a human school.

When she was in her third year, she met David, another wind elemental. He was in most of her classes though he wasn't concentrating in Education. She later found out that he was taking those classes because she was. He'd known her longer than she knew him. It didn't take long for the two to form a strong bond and when he asked her out, Zoey was quick to accept. They were attached at the hip and they fell hard for each other. Zoey was certain she'd found the one she was meant to spend the rest of her life with.

When she graduated, Zoey decided she wanted to teach Toronto. David was more than willing to move with her, and they were both responsible elementals. They had their powers under control and they knew how and when to use them. So there really was no concern that they weren't staying in Maple Hollow.

A year after they moved, David proposed. They were married when Zoey was 23. Zoey was also an eleventh grade teacher at a local high school. Life was going well. She kept in touch with her parents and her two brothers. Nothing could touch her.

So she thought.

A year after their marriage, Zoey and David started trying for a baby. Zoey loved children, she loved teaching them and being around them, but she wanted one of her own. David was more than happy to comply, wanting a child just as badly as she did. They tried... again and again until a year later Zoey finally went to a fertility doctor. The news wasn't good. The doctor came in with a blank expression and he told her that she had Endometriosis. Confused, she asked for clarification. He informed her that more tests would need to be done and there were treatments available. Frightened, Zoey broke out into a sob, but after being told about what her condition was, she agreed to the treatments for her infertility. The first step was the surgery, which went smoothly, but, even though surgery sometimes increased fertility, Zoey was one of the unlucky ones. Another year went by and she still wasn't able to get pregnant. She went on to medications but they didn't work either. Finally, she asked the doctor about in-vitro fertilization. But the doctor had unfortunate news. Due to the severity of her endometriosis and her intrusive surgery, in-vitro fertilization was not an option.

Knowing she had exhausted all her options, Zoey collapsed, finally being hit with the realization that she would never be able to have children of her own. She became a shell of her former self then, and David was bitter about her infertility, for he, too, wanted children badly. Now, he was stuck with a woman... who wasn't much of a woman at all. If she couldn't give birth, how could she be called a woman? He was resentful and he let it show. They started fighting often, and he would always bring up her condition, throwing it in her face like it was all her fault, like she asked for it. That would always bring tears to her eyes. She hated her body for being unable to carry a child, but his resentment hurt all the more.

But they stayed together... though he slept on the couch and they hardly spoke. Zoey would cook dinner and they wouldn't speak over their meal. He would eat and go into the study. Zoey thought he was consumed in his work, but he hadn't written anything since the news. He just stayed there. The house bred contempt and when Zoey was 26, David informed her of an affair he'd been having for the past 8 months. "I think it's time we end this," he told her. While her heart was broken and she was angry with David, she still very much loved him, so hearing those words was another blow to her heart. She begged him to reconsider. She said she would try harder and that they could consider adoption. But David was hearing none of it. He simply shook his head.

Zoey moved out, the ring still on her finger. She left her job and her home, knowing she wouldn't be able to stay in Toronto without constantly being reminded of him and probably going to him to beg yet again. She went back home to her parents. They tried their best to comfort her, but she was empty. Months passed by and she told herself she needed to start over. She went to the Academy and offered herself as a teacher, which they accepted. Zoey just moved into an apartment in Maple Hollow, knowing she couldn't stay with her parents and have a clean slate... with their pitying eyes and sorrowful expressions. She had to start fresh and that's exactly what she's doing.
