Lately though she has been trying to overcome her depression and pick up the pieces of her life.
She tries often make Kai smile even if it's only a ghost of a smile. She is fearful he will leave her behind as well and join Pavvul by walking into the sun. Some nights it's all she can do not to fly into his quarters to ensure he has not done just that. Though she does not love him as a lover would.

Abilities: Being graced with the gift of Vampire. Her dancing talent has been magnified. Each aspect of her past life amplified till she is beyond even a prima ballerina of days before the apocalypse. She is still judged to be young and has a difficult time taking blood from humans.

History: It wasn't a privileged childhood she had but one in a lower middle class area of town. Her mother and father worked hard for what they had and it was a devastating loss when her father was taken from them unexpectedly. He had always supported her in her desire and need to dance. Growing up only blocks away from her childhood sweetheart Elias. They were nearly inseparable the way young children are and each had a passion for dance.
Her and Elias became students at a prominent performing arts school and were the lead couple in many productions together. They had a passion that rivaled all others when they preformed together. She and him were always in perfect sync. It was once said that their very souls seemed to dance together as they did on the stage. She never had eyes for anyone but him.
Just after graduation they were both in a company of dancers and wished to further their educations and lives. Times being what they were they knew that money would be needed. Elias decided that joining the Military would help them gain the financial funds needed to achieve this. It was with a heavy heart that she agreed to this idea. The wars were over and only small troops were sent to assist with little missions that were not very risky.
Little did she know as she kissed him during their last performance it would be one of the last kisses they shared before he was taken from her forever. The very next day he was shipped out and heading over to the middle east. His entire company was wiped out. His CO came by personally at the theater to inform her off his death. It was a day she'll never forget.
The day she laid Elias in the ground it rained. It was as if the world was crying with her and their dance troop. Again his CO came and asked if she would come back to the base with him to be given Elias's personal effects.
Nothing could be harder she thought as they drove onto the base and into a small hanger where his trunks had been stored.
The world came to and end as well that day. Having been on base though she was spared along with several military personal as they were able to seek shelter within the bomb shelters, hidden deep under the base. It was several days before they were able to come out and realize the extent of what had happen. The refugees survived on MRE's until till they started to dwindle.
Elias's CO and her became friends of sorts as they worked together. Elaine assisted with trying to keep everyone's spirits up even though her heart was shattered. Not only had she lost her soul mate but everything else as well. The art school was a shell of itself.
Only a few months after they had started to rebuild things and try and find other survivors, Elaine found herself within the ruins of her old school.. The wooden dance floor her and Elias had learned dance on was charred in several places and littered with brick and rubble. Over come with a need to feel her lover again she began to dance their dance. Moving as if he was with her still. As tears poured down her cheeks. She was unaware of Jan Kai watching her.
A noise startled her and she whirled suddenly falling over a broken bit of window and slicing her leg. He was by her side in a split second. Touched by the sadness and beauty of her solo dance. He decided then and there to take her and make her into a vampire. He had watched a performance she had done with EZ only a short while ago before EZ was killed over sea's. His pale blue eyes held her captive as he told her what he was and what he intended. There was nothing here for her. Everything that she loved was gone. It wasn't a hard choice to make. Though she had but one condition. She was married and even though EZ was gone she would be forever faithful to her husband.
Time went by slowly and she moved where her maker moved. It saddened her as well when Pavvul chose to walk into the daylight. She tried to console Jan Kai by dancing or singing for him at the Club Apocalyptica where they resided. But little cheered her maker or her self for that matter.

The rain poured down around her in the graveyard. Her husband's coffin lay at her feet covered with the American flag. Two solders in full dress uniform removed the flag and began to fold it. A company played taps as her heart struggled to beat. All that she wanted to do was to lay down upon that casket and be buried with EZ. A sob ripped from her painful and forlorn as she clutched the flag to her chest. Closing her eyes against everything else she could see them dance together on stage. Each step in harmony.
She sank down, collapsing next to him and cried uncontrollably. Her hand reaching out for him as she was picked up and held by his Commanding Officer. "Mrs Zaro. Please. You have to let him go."
"I'll see you soon." was all she could whisper her eyes never leaving the coffin as it was covered with now muddy dirt.
"Ma'am. I know this is a bad time but, we would like to give you his belongings. If you would come back with us." He offered. At her sullen nod he carried her from the grave site and to the military car that was waiting for them.
