Brief History: [ Youth | Finding New Hope | Disaster | A New Family]

- Youth - When Jennifer was born her parents were young and happy, they owned a clothing shop, where her mother would make the clothes and her father would sell them. They weren't exactly well off, but they weren't dirt poor ether. They always made enough money to eat and anything extra they had was generally cheaply made or hand crafted by Jennifer's father. They didn't have a bad life, and Jennifer grew up thinking she was the luckiest kit on earth, until her father disappeared.

Jennifer's mother told her her father went away to sell clothing so they would have more money to buy her wonderful things. Jennifer told her mother she didn't care about stuff, that she just wanted her father back. At that her looked away from her to hide her tears, but Jennifer could see her body shaking, and she started crying as well.

The money from the clothes never came, nether of them expected it would, but no one dared point out it had been a lie. Jennifer began to notice when other cats when missing as well, her friends parents and siblings, or the cats who lived across the street. She began to get bad anxiety, fearing her mother, or her would be taken away. It never went away, it was always in the back of her mind eating away at her, until she learned how to hover board.

One of her best friends showed her how, at first it was just something fun to do with a friend, more of an obligation to have a normal life than anything else. Then she got good at it, she started riding faster, higher, farther. When she rode it was like all her worries flew away and nothing could ever be wrong again, but no good ever seemed to last long for Jennifer.

When Jennifer turned 16, her mother began to grow ill, Jennifer gave up hover boarding to take care of her mother and find a way to make money to feed her. Before now Jennifer had been selling the clothes her mother would make, but now her mother couldn't make clothes anymore, she couldn't even steady her hands to sew a simple skirt. Jennifer had never learned to sew before, so she had no idea how to make money, she took to begging, trying to save her mother's life. But no one donated more than a few coins, and it simply wasn't enough, her mother died a month after she came down with the strange illness. Her mothers last words were calling out Jennifer's name over, and over.

Jennifer took her hover board, the one thing she hadn't soled trying to raise money and rode off, over the metal buildings as fast as she could, hoping, praying that she would slip and fall. She didn't, and soon she was glad of it.

- Finding a new hope - Once Jennifer reached the city's edge she landed, curling up beside a building and burying her face in her arms. She had lost everything and everyone she cared deeply about. She had friends of course, but wasn't particularly close to any of them, her life seemed meaningless, and right as she resolved to end it she felt the warmth of a paw on her shoulder. She looked up to see a tom looking down at her, hover board tucked under his arm, she thought she recognized him but she couldn't put a name to his face. He told her that he'd seen her flying over the buildings and was worried she may have fallen and hurt herself. He even went as far as scolding her for risking her life, and that other people would miss her if she died. At that she broke down crying, because what he said wasn't true, and that he should leave her alone. He didn't though, he sat beside her and didn't say a word as she sobbed. They sat like this for a long time until Jennifer finally asked who he was, and if she knew him. He told her no, she didn't know him, but he had seen her on the streets before and had heard that her mother was ill. He told her his name was Kail and that he had lost his mother as well, though he did not know what had happened to her, she simply vanished a year prior. Jennifer wiped the tears from her eyes and tried to tell him her name, but she couldn't bare to hear the last word her mother had said, she looked at their hover boards that sat in front of them and thought for a moment, then told him her name was Jet. He smiled and stood, holding out his paw to help her up, kicking his hover board into his other paw he asked if she would like to have a little race. She nodded, knowing he wanted to take her mind off her mother.

Kail wasn't strong, or bold, or any kind of a heart throb, but Jet found him charming, he was sweet and he really did care about her. Over the next two years they spent most of their time together, first as friends, and then as a couple. Kail proposed to Jet on the day of her eighteenth birthday, and they soon became mates. Jet thought she could finally be happy, and not worry about losing him. Kail restored hover hoards, and Jet would sell them, they had a good life. On their first anniversary Kail gave Jet a Koi inspired hover board, he had customized it himself. When they decided they were well off enough to start a family they were both very excited.

- Disaster - Kail wanted things to be perfect before they had a kit, one morning he left, giving a jet a kiss on the cheek to wake her up, he promised her that he would have a surprise for her when he returned, but the thing is, he never did. Jet waited by the window all day, and when the sun began to go down she went out looking for him. Asking if anyone had seen him, she managed to find leads all the way to the edge of town. The last thing she ever saw of her mate was his hover board, broken in half over a rock. When she found it she dropped to her knees and looked up to the full moon, calling out, asking why this had to happen to her, she asked who was torturing her and why. She spent the next several days searching for him, he could have fallen, he could be hurt or worse. She put up posters and asked everyone she met if they had seen him, but they all told her the same thing, he had disappeared, just like so many others, just like her father.

- A New Family - After Kail disappearance Jet had no more hover boards to sell, she couldn't fix them herself. She took to stealing food and other things she needed, living a small abandoned building because she lost her shop and home. She felt as if she had hit an all time low and had given up on ever being happy. She began to hide her emotions, if someone could reach them she knew she would only grow attached and then lose them. Eventually she met Viper, and older she-cat, who seemed to want to help her. She told Jet about other cats who had also lost a great deal, that she could join them and have a family again. Jet refused for some time, but the more she thought about the idea of being with other cats again the lonelier and lonelier she became, she searched for Viper for weeks and eventually found her, joining her gang of she-cats. Jet now claims that this is where she belongs, but every month, when the moon is full like the the night Kail vanished she would ride out to the rock where she had found his hover board and sit there, looking at the moon and preying for him to come back to her.


Brief Personality: [Rash | Daring | Devoted | Guarded | Detached]

- Rash - Jet has a tendency to make decisions on a dime and not think much about them after the fact. She is quick and agile but she is far from strong and would lose in most fights, she relies on her speed to much and with her rash nature she's lucky not to have been caught and attacked yet.
- Daring - Having no concern for her own well being Jet will risk her life for almost any reason. If she thought it would benefit someone she cared about she would run into a building rigged to explode.
- Devoted - Once Jet has devoted herself to someone she will never let any harm come to them if she could help it. This comes from losing her mate.
- Guarded - Jet tries not to let her emotions show, because she has lost everyone she has opened up to and grown to love.
- Detached - Fearful of loving anyone Jet detaches herself from other cats so she can never feel the same loss she felt as when she lost Kail.

Items:
-Koi inspired Hover board - Design inspired from Aspyluff's hover board, and the hover boards in the "Uglies" Trilogy from Scott Westerfeld There is a petal in the back to turn it on, and a strap in the front to hold her foot down. The center twists to turn and the wings and yellow rings on the bottom light up (the wings are inspired from the ship sails in treasure planet)
-Crash bracelets - She has on each of her arms, if she falls they will catch her (in a shoulder wrenching, painful way)
-Locket - Kail gave Jet this locket when they had been dating for a year, inside is a picture of them together. She has it on a short sting so it wont get broken or lost.


Extras:
-Jet is straight.
-Jet avoids men because she fears she will be attracted to them and if she is she feels like it would be like spitting on her mates grave, if he's dead that is, she isn't sure.
-She isn't short tempered with most things, but sometimes she'll be set off by something seemingly irreverent.
-Jet is quite the risk taker, she feels like her life is worthless on it's own because the cat she loves is gone, this is why she devoted herself to the gang.
-Jet is quite obsessed with her hover board and any cool mechanical things she can get her paws on.
