| Nissa
Bergen is a spunky 11-year old living in the South. Her mother has left
Nissa and her father for parts unknown. Nissa has been running wild ever
since. She can be cranky and angry one minute and cracking jokes the next.
She is also very philosophical. She states that "you can't stay away from
the things you love. It makes you grow old inside." Nissa feels old inside.
