History:  Cheyanne Huntoon was born to James, 45 and Laurianne, 41, the day before Independance Day two miles outside Hershey Amusement park.  She was the youngest and only daughter of James and Laurianne.  James had been raised Amish and had left at age 20 to see what the world had to offer. Though he taught his children religion, he never pushed it down there throat.  Cheyanne's mother believed in education and putting money away from college taught her children the value of the past.  When Cheyanne was 9, her parents died in a store fire, leaving the 9 year old heart broken.  Her three older brothers were all grown and out of the house, and Cheyanne was going to be taken to a foster home.  Walker was 25 at the time, right out of college. He and the other brothers Ethan and Toby moved into the family home, and took custody of Cheyanne.  A year after the fire, the owners of the store setteled a wrongful death settlement case with the family. With that and the insurance money, the siblings was living comfortably.  Walker put away a fair amount in savings account for Cheyanne, and Ethan and Toby.  Alot of her brothers friends didn't understand why they didn't move into a bigger house and spoil Cheyanne, but all three knew how there parents raised them and they were going to raise her like they were raised.

Cheyanne grew up loving horses and taking horseback riding lessons. She was a quiet child who would never tell her brothers when she hurt herself due to hate being made a fuss about or them being worried about her. Her brothers called her a tomboy.   As a teenager, Cheyanne delevoped a love for historical things, antiques, and buildings.  She was astonished at the rate that things of the past was disapearing. When she was 15, she went to visit her grandfather in Lancaster PA. Her grandfather wasn't well, and let her go into the attic to discover the other side of the family past. She discovered several old books that was in partial ruin.  She took the books with her, as well as tarnished candle sticks. She got a book on restoring antiques from the library and refinished the candle sticks.  Her brother Toby had taken classes on restoring books in college, and restored the book. It was then that Cheyanne decided what she wanted to do in life. She wanted to buy and restore antiques.  She talked it over with her brothers and it was decided after she graduated college, she would use some of her money to buy antiques and restore them and then sell them to dealers. If it went well, then they would open there own store.

While in college, Cheyanne took classes in accounting and business classes. She did well but her passion and main goal was to show her brothers that she was serious about what she wanted to do with her life. She got good grades, and graduated top 5% of her class.  While in her sophmore year of college, she met Drake Kimbell, a teachers aide.  He was 24, she was 19. The two dated on and off for 2 years. The relationship was somewhat abusive, especially when Drake drunk. When he wasn't drinking he was a very kind and respectful person who doted on Cheyanne.  After a night of being out with his friends drinking, Drake came home and beat her severly. The next day when a friend noticed she wasn't in class, she called Cheyanne's brother Ethan.  Ethan and Toby drove to her apartment and found her on her couch. They took her to the hospital and Drake was arrested.  She started buying antiques and restoring them and selling them.  When she was 25 her brothers and her opened up there own small shop called "Things of The Past."  She restores and keeps business records.  Her brother Walker did the web page. She runs it mostly with brother Toby.

While at a antique dealer show a year ago, she met Renee Bradford, a 30 year old antique magazine writer. The two became friends, hanging out and going to auctions for antiques.  A week before she left for Japan, Cheyanne went over to Renee's for dinner, like she had many times before. While talking, the two kissed. Renee noticed that Cheyanne was surprised by the kiss and the two talked about it. Cheyanne had never thought about being with a woman before, and needed time to think about it.  Cheyanne was already planning the month trip to Japan to do antique hunting. While in Japan she thought about the events and was on her way to meet her brother Toby in Seattle when the flight went missing.

Personality: Cheyanne is a determined young woman who loves to keep in shape. She can talk about her antiques for hours.  Growing up with older brothers, she's very competative.  She doesn't like to bother people when she gets hurt, knowing it would heal eventually.  Even though Cheyanne is a tom boy, she also loves the ballet.  Her mother had her taking ballet from the age of 3 to age 8. She enjoys watching ballet as well as baseball. She has a Philladelphia Phillies mug that goes everywhere she does. Cheyanne is used to dealing with the public and always smiles even when she is saddened or scared. She has a nervous twitch to the side of her lip when she is scared or upset.  She will never tell you she is upset with you unless you ask her directly.. Cheyanne is respectful, and listens, though her opinion will be known if she has to go after you to do it.
