A young girl and childhood friend of Anikan, who lives in New York City after moving away when she was younger.

He does hallucinate her after nearly dying from the mutant virus, and later reunites with her in the third book. But when they do meet, they don't remember each other due to amnesia, and it isn't till later on that they finally realize who each other are.

"Anikan? Did you say Anikan? Anikan Sestral?" (anxious, hopeful, worried)
"Fall back! Everyone get behind the barricades and take cover! Spencer, get the kids inside the house!" (shouting, angry, barking orders at others)
"When I fell into that bunker, and heard the world crumble around me, I thought you were dead. The past year I've been sitting behind these stupid walls, calling you and just hoping you would somehow answer. You never did... but I held out hope. And now... you're here," (happy, crying)
