When I first posted on the forums, it was with a female Sim named Ava Sinclair. Ava was a Sim that was created when I used some Sunset Valley Sims to create a new Sim. Her genetics come from the Goth's, Landgraab's, and Wolff's, as well as some other families. Ava had a child named Avery with Boyd Wainwright and another child named Brittany with Hank Goddard. I lost the save file but I still have a version of Ava that I can use for the new story. Brittany got an alternate story where she was trying to complete the Ultimate Sim Challenge but I got tired of it and quit it. This new story, however, will be like a prequel to her original story.

https://i.imgur.com/DOUaoXg.jpgHere's a slightly remade Ava Sinclair-Goddard. As some of you recall, she was the first Sim I shared on the forums. She is getting a change in clothes eventually to symbolize her new story. She was originally a fairy so I made her into one again and got her the correct wings/color. I still have to redo Brittany as well as a few other characters sometime as well as remodel Sunset Valley. I'm aging some of the children like Bella and Mortimer to young adult plus I may be bringing in Sims from other towns as well. As you will see, I changed the idea of the story a bit. This means that Ava is fresh out of high school and isn't the kind, classy, confident person she will grow up to be.

The Return of Ava Sinclair!https://i.imgur.com/wrUeoRB.jpg?1Meet Ava Sinclair. Ava recently moved to Sunset Valley after graduating high school. She has heard some about the town, like the fact that the Landgraab's and Goth's live there. She has studied both family's as she is a distant cousin to Cornelia (Crumplebottom) Goth. Ava hopes that one day she can be the Leader of the Free World and make SimNation a better place.https://i.imgur.com/ruQWTC9.jpg?1Ava used the $16,500 she had saved up working as a waitress through high school to buy the Shotgun Style home at 58 Water Lily Lane. This didn't leave her with much money to buy the things she needed, but she was glad to get away from her parents. The only family members she missed were her twin brother Adam Sinclair, and Uncle John. I hope to make you both proud, she thought as the realtor took her picture. I'm going to make something out of myself and help everyone I can.https://i.imgur.com/HKBafQD.jpg?1Ava walked inside her house to see that the movers put everything in the right place. She didn't have any experience in anything so she decided to read the cookbook her grandmother had left her in her will. If I'm going to live on my own, I'm going to have to learn to cook, she thought. Ava was a bit surprised when she heard her doorbell ring. I wonder who that is? I don't know anyone here yet.https://i.imgur.com/gFG4ixm.jpg?1When she opened the door, Ava saw a red headed woman, a cute blonde, and an odd man in a top hat. Feeling like the female Sim would be the best one to talk to, Ava talked to her first. "Hi, I'm Monika Morris," said the red headed woman. "Nice to meet you, Monika. I'm Ava Sinclair, I just moved here today." Monika smiled at Ava before saying, "Nice to see someone new in this town. We like to get some of us together to greet new additions to the town. We don't get too many new people around here." I wonder why?, Ava thought. This seems like a nice place to live. Realizing that her new guests were expecting her to invite them in, Ava motioned for them to come in.https://i.imgur.com/mDcWaeY.jpg?1The cute blonde guy that Ava had first noticed came up to introduce himself. "Hi, I'm Dustin Langerak, my family has lived here for a couple generations." Ava smiled at him. "Nice to meet you, Dustin," she said to him. "It's nice to meet some people in this town." Dustin laughed. "Yeah, it probably makes living in a new place a little bit easier. At least you seem nicer than the Alto's. They are pretty new to the town as well."https://i.imgur.com/ViuYIl9.jpg?1The man with the top hat came up to Ava. "Hello, I am Gun...," the man began. "Gunther Goth. I know who you are, I've heard great things about your family." "Ah, I see my reputation has preceded me, Ms. Sinclair," Gunther said. "It's nice to meet you. I hope you enjoy living here in Sunset Valley."https://i.imgur.com/sEjt7g2.jpg?1"Thank you, Mr. Goth. I didn't mean to sound rude or anything. I just did a research paper on my family tree last year and found out that your wife is a distant cousin of mine." Gunther smiled, "Then that makes you family. You'll have to come meet Cornelia sometime. She'd love to meet you and I'm sure my son Mortimer would love to as well. Strangely enough, you have her eyes." "Thank you, Mr. Goth, that means so much to me. My parents don't really care about me and I haven't seen my brother for several months."Gunther looked at her with pity in his eyes. "Well, you are welcome in our home anytime. We'd love to have you, and please, call me Gunther."https://i.imgur.com/rQo98Z8.jpg?1Dustin came up to Ava with a goofy grin on his face. "For you, my lady," he said as he presented her with roses. "Oh, Mr. Langerak, they're beautiful. Thank you so much!" Dustin continued to smile at her with that goofy grin. Even that goofy grin of his is cute, she thought. She was really going to like this place.***The story begins! As you may have noticed, Ava lost her fairy wings and she also got a change in clothes. The reason for this is the fact that this Ava is younger than the one in her other story. This Ava just graduated high school before moving away. Her mom and dad weren't really there for her like they should have been so she is used to being on her own. Ava hasn't met Boyd or Hank yet so she doesn't have any children or anything yet but this will all happen eventually. Part 2 will be posted either later today or sometime tomorrow.

Ava's Prequel, Chapter 2https://i.imgur.com/nKrHBtm.jpg?1Okay, Ava, it's only small talk. You can do this, she thought. "I really like this new house. It may be a bit small but it will work perfectly for me," she said to Dustin. Dustin looked at her like she was crazy. "Do you think I really want to talk about your new house? We all have houses, your's isn't better than anyone else's," he said to her rudely. Well, the nerve of this guy. And to think, I thought he was cute.https://i.imgur.com/oDvGVDy.jpg?1"I'm so sorry, Mr. Langerak. I didn't mean to bore you. Can you please forgive me?" Dustin looked a little sheepish. "Uh, yeah, sorry about that outburst. It's nothing you did, I just have a lot on my plate right now. My sister-in-law just move in and she is driving me up the wall." Ava felt a little bit better but she still thought Dustin was a bit rude. She decided to leave it alone for now, she didn't need any enemies on her first day here.https://i.imgur.com/iLZO16g.jpg?1Ava realized that her guests were probably getting hungry, and so she went to the refrigerator to get an autumn salad made. She knew she couldn't mess that up and she hadn't properly shopped for groceries yet.https://i.imgur.com/Ob2nykG.jpg?1"Okay, everyone! Salad's ready," she told her guests. She was a bit disappointed that Dustin sat down with her instead of Monika. Dustin just seemed a bit... different. She decided that she could probably do better than him anyway. She got involved in a conversation about her family with Gunther. "You should invite your parents over sometime," Gunther told her. "With your mother being related to Cornelia, I know that Cornelia would love to meet her." Ava shook her head. "That's not going to happen. I don't want my parents anywhere near me right now." She knew that she was the one who probably sounded rude right now, but she didn't want her parents around. David and Elizabeth Sinclair would try to bring her home to marry the man they had chosen for her. The Sinclair's had come from money but David had squandered most of it and now wanted to get Ava into a rich family. Elizabeth didn't know anything about being related to the Goth's and Ava wanted to keep it that way.https://i.imgur.com/ARDE1PI.jpg?1The conversation shifted to talk about Sunset Valley and all the different families in the town. Ava went to talk to Monika after finishing her salad. "So Monika, what do you do for a living?" she asked her new acquaintance. "I'm a snack hawker down at the stadium. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it is a step to becoming an athlete." Ava didn't know that, she thought that as long as a talent scout saw how great you were, you could join a team easily. "You have a boyfriend or anything?" she asked. Monika frowned, "That's one thing I wish I had. There is this guy named Stiles that I kind of like. Why do you ask?" Ava laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not flirting with you or anything. I've just never really had a female friend to talk about guys with." Monika's smile grew wide, "You can talk to me anytime you want. We can help each other out with finding a good man." Ava agreed with Monika, she liked that plan a lot.https://i.imgur.com/zPpt6pg.jpg?1While Ava's guests were chatting, she decided to do the dishes. She never did like a dirty house and was actually the only one who did any cleaning at her parents place, other than the hired staff. Shortly after that, all the guests said goodbye as they needed to get home to their own families.https://i.imgur.com/gTstPyV.jpg?1She hadn't even had time to read her newspaper so she went out to get it. Ava knew she needed a job but she would need work experience before she would ever be able to get into politics. She searched the wanted ads and saw that the supermarket needed someone. Well, it's not waitressing, so that is a step up, I guess, she thought. She decided that first thing in the morning, she would go for an interview.https://i.imgur.com/thFP3fJ.jpg?1As Ava got ready for bed that night, she started to wonder when her parents would find her. Don't worry about that now, Ava, she thought. You are an adult now, they have no hold over you any longer. With that thought in her head, Ava went to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.***That's the end of Day 1. She'll go to the job interview in the next update, and hopefully she can start bringing some money in. I made mention that Monika likes Stiles McGraw and the reason is because they hooked up in the original save. I don't know every hookup in that save but the ones tied to Ava are in the old family tree. To get these relationships started, I'll be using a few mods or cheats. I'll make mention of these either in a note or in the story as they occur.

Ava Prequel, Part 3https://i.imgur.com/mpSG96s.jpg?1Ava woke up the next morning, feeling excited about her interview at the grocery store. I hope that I get the job, maybe then I can fix this place up a bit, she thought. She went straight to the bathroom to take care of business.https://i.imgur.com/RkVCff1.jpg?1Once that was finished, she grabbed some leftover autumn salad from the refrigerator. She wasn't too impressed with the taste. It tastes like old refrigerator, she thought as she took a bite.https://i.imgur.com/ESvJpmH.jpg?1It was pretty early in the morning and her interview wasn't until 8 a.m. so Ava picked up her cookbook and did some more reading until it was time to leave.https://i.imgur.com/r3R9OgM.jpg?1As the sun slowly rose above the horizon, Ava took off for her interview. She enjoyed the scenery thinking I was right, this town is beautiful. I'm glad I came here. She walked past the park and made a mental note to visit there after the interview. Hopefully she would meet some new people there.https://i.imgur.com/bpRrSwY.jpg?1Well, here goes nothing. Ava had arrived at the store when her nerves got the better of her. She'd only had one interview before when she got her waitressing job and that one was easy since her boss was also her teacher. But Ava didn't have to worry as the manager of the store thought she would be a great addition to the team. Ava left the interview, very happy with how it turned out.https://i.imgur.com/htljtOV.jpg?1The park was pretty close so Ava walked over there, seeing there were many Sims there. She went up to the first person she saw and introduced herself. "Hi, I'm Ava Sinclair, I'm new to town and just thought I'd say hello." The man took her hand, "I'm Gus Hart. It's nice to meet you, Ava." Ava stayed and talked to Gus for a bit. He seemed nice but he also was a little bit odd.https://i.imgur.com/trYlSbS.jpg?1"So, where do you work, Gus?" Ava asked him. "Over at the grocery store. For some reason, no one else would hire me. It doesn't bother me, I like my work at the store." Ava was surprised to meet someone who worked at her new workplace. "Hey, I just got a job at the store!" she told him. "Really?," he said with surprise. "What a coincidence, you'll love it. The pay isn't too great but what can you expect from a part-time job?" They chatted a bit more but then Gus said he needed to see what his daughter Bebe was doing. He pointed out his wife to Ava so she could introduce herself.https://i.imgur.com/HnWvcmB.jpg?2"Hi, I'm Ava Sinclair. Your husband Gus said I should introduce myself." Dorie looked a little confused. "Aren't you my daughter?" she asked Ava. Now it was Ava's turn to be confused. "Um, no, I'm not your daughter. That girl over there is though." Dorie smiled at her then said, "Of course, you're right. I can't remember who people are any more." Ava then realized that Dorie had a few issues but Ava wasn't going to treat her differently for it.https://i.imgur.com/xSSwRfx.jpg?1As Ava was leaving the park, she bumped into a guy near the entrance. "Sorry miss, I need to watch where I am going," said a handsome man. "It's o-o-kay," Ava stuttered. The man looked at her for a minute then said, "Hey, aren't you Ava Sinclair? Monika told me about you, said she really likes you." Ava realized who this man had to be. "You must be Stiles McGraw," she told him. Stiles nodded his head. "So Monika mentioned me? That's great! Say, do think I should ask her out?" Ava smiled, "I think she'd love that." Stiles grinned back before running of to meet with Monika. Monika was right, he is cute, Ava thought. If she wasn't going after him, I definitely would.https://i.imgur.com/v29uccW.jpg?1Once Ava got home, she checked her mail. She only had a bill for $88. That's only going to leave me with a little over $100, she thought. She was glad it wasn't much more though, otherwise she'd probably lose the house.https://i.imgur.com/DmzmBSD.jpg?1After sending off her bills, Ava ate her supper then read the newspaper. She saw that a couple called the Keaton's had just had a baby boy they named Keith. Ava smiled at that. I'd love to have a little baby boy or girl sometime. I can't really do that with my pay right now. Ava knew she'd be a great mother but she had to find a husband first.https://i.imgur.com/vFCZgxi.jpg?1She tried to invite Monika Morris over to visit but unfortunately, she had to work. "It's okay, Monika. We can get together on one of your days off."https://i.imgur.com/MyEcWat.jpg?1Since she didn't have anything else to do, Ava decided to read a book. She chose one called "One Wolf, Two Wolves. Where Wolf? There Wolf!" She knew it was a children's book, but it was one from her childhood that she had loved.https://i.imgur.com/uY7V8OR.jpg?1Once she had finished reading the book, Ava decided she better head for bed. That night, she slept with a lot less on her mind than the night before.***Skills Ava has so far, as of this update.1. Cooking - 1

Ava update

https://i.imgur.com/IfdoAlG.jpg
Ava was up before anyone else and was eating her salad. She couldn't help but think about the plants that she had left behind at her old house. She tried to move on and make the most of her situation but it wasn't easy.

https://i.imgur.com/AFg8ulX.jpg
Ava bought herself a gift since Adam thought they needed to stay indoors most of the time. She ended up learning a few easy elixirs that she hoped to try soon.

https://i.imgur.com/AH1tS48.jpg
Little did she know, Monika was looking at houses for her and Stiles to move to. She knew Ava would be upset as she didn't know Blair that well, but she knew she and Stiles couldn't start a family with everybody there.

https://i.imgur.com/9VLJUjY.jpg
"Adam, I'm bored," Ava said to her brother. "I want to go take a painting class." Adam looked thoughtful for a moment then nodded his head. "Alright, I'll go too. We need to stay together if you decide to leave, okay?" Ava reluctantly agreed and they both headed to the school.

***Yeah, this update was very short. The reason is that I didn't have anything planned for this day. The next couple updates have a lot more to them than this one does. I'll post them both in the morning as I have a lot of free time tomorrow.

Short Ava update

https://i.imgur.com/mPrEYLS.jpg
"What the plum is going on here?" Adam asked. Ava covered herself with the blanket and left the room, leaving Boyd alone with Adam. "I can't believe you just slept with my sister! What is wrong with you, man?" Adam yelled at him.

https://i.imgur.com/uOgyN3Y.jpg
"I only acted on feelings we both had!" Boyd yelled back. "Maybe if you hadn't forced her to stay indoors all the time, maybe she would have met someone else!"

https://i.imgur.com/eSOoDjt.jpg
"How dare you turn this on me!" Adam said as he slapped Boyd. "Do you have any idea what we went through? She doesn't love you, she's just desperate and you took advantage of her! Now get out of my sight, I never want to see you again!" Boyd ran out of the room to his own room to pack up. He wasn't going to live with someone as crazy as Adam.

https://i.imgur.com/0qAPTU4.jpg
Ava came back into the room after getting dressed. "You have no right to tell me who I choose to date or woohoo with. You may have moved me here, and you may have made me quit my job, but you are not going to stop me and Boyd from having a relationship," Ava yelled at her brother. She was not happy and Adam kind of feared what she might do to him.

***Sorry for the argument, lol. Ava made a bad mistake and of course Adam would be mad. Boyd is done with her, he got what he wanted and he is afraid of Adam. Neither knows that the mistake will cause more drama in the near future. Also, this was supposed to be on the other update but Imgur had an issue, hence the short update.

@king_of_simcity7 Yeah, there are some unhappy Sims right now. There may be one person who is okay with it though. ;) Thanks for the comment!

@queenvortex808 Very soon. A few more things need to happen first, I paused the pregnancy until that point. After this, all pregnancies will be the normal length of three days.

Ava Update

https://i.imgur.com/4b04cYq.jpg
Robert watched Ava as she slept and he was very pleased with himself. After almost a year, he had finally caught his ex-fiancee and he was going to make her pay. No one escapes from Robert Lancaster, he thought. At that moment, he heard footsteps coming down the stairs. "Ah, David. I see that you've heard I caught your daughter."

https://i.imgur.com/Yr8VclQ.jpg
David came up to Robert. "You are such a genius, sir," David said. Robert smiled. "Well, yes, but you already knew that. I hate to do this to you, but you need punished for letting your son and daughter escape."

https://i.imgur.com/4tV0qm8.jpg
"Wait, Mr. Lancaster, NOOO!" Robert threw a Flask of Angry Bee's at David for punishment as David's wife Elizabeth watched.

https://i.imgur.com/a073JOE.jpg
With the sound proof walls, the other prisoner could not hear what was going on. He was David's brother, John, and also Adam and Ava's uncle. John knew a secret but since he was always unconscious due to medicine Robert gave him, he could not tell anyone.

https://i.imgur.com/oeKyqXW.jpg
Normally Ava was home by 8pm and Adam was starting to get worried. Because of this, he decided to call up Officer Hank Goddard. "Hey, this is Adam Sinclair. I'm calling because my sister hasn't been home yet and she isn't answering any of my calls. Her location is also turned off and I have no way to find her." Hank told Adam not to worry and that he would send officers out to look for her. Adam was so worried that Ava had been captured by their parents and he told Hank about it. Hank said that they would start by investigating the Sinclair's and Robert Lancaster.

https://i.imgur.com/9IwIP4Z.jpg
"I'm sorry that I had to punish your husband, Elizabeth, but he deserved it," Robert told Mrs. Sinclair. "Yes, the old fool does not realize that he is just a pawn in our plans," Elizabeth replied. Elizabeth did not love David but she knew that he had more money than her first love had. John Sinclair had actually been her first love but he abandoned her when she had slept with his brother David.

https://i.imgur.com/deVyfox.jpg
The next day, Ava started to feel labor pains and she knew that her baby was on it's way. "Oh no, not here. Not in these conditions, please Watcher, help me!" she said. But the pains didn't stop and she knew she was going to have to deliver the baby herself.

https://i.imgur.com/krB6WWA.jpg
Ava gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. "I don't know how, but we are going to get out of here, little one."

***Things are going a bit quickly but it is mainly because I don't want to drag out her imprisonment for too long. Next update, a few things will be explained in words with a few pictures. It will be posted soon.
