Abigail Hunter

Warning: The Following Article contains spoilers

Abigail 'Abby' Hunter is a main character in the Time Twins series, first appearing in The Water Tower, alongside main characters Chase and Stacey Stevens. As the first real friend of Stacey upon her arrival in Einstein's Plateau, she becomes her best friend throughout the series.

Appearance

Fourteen years old, with medium length brown hair which she always wears in pigtails. As she usually wears glasses due to poor eyesight she somewhst resembles Maude Moonshine, from The Worst Witch.

Personality

Abigail is variously labeled a 'geek' and 'dork' by her fellow students. Although she is generous and compassionate she is usually shunned by her classmates, including her best friend Stacey's doppelganger twin. Knowledgeable and highly inquisitive, she has an innate need to know answers and solve puzzles, which comes in handy to Stacey and Chase in almost any situation in which they find themselves, though because of her inquisitiveness she has a habit of asking questions and enquiring after information to the point of irritating her friends and classmates.

Background

Not much is known of Abigail's background, due to the fact that very few people besides Stacey show any genuine interest in her. Because of this she has very little self-esteem or self worth, especially in social settings where people - boys especially - show more interest in Stacey and Chase than in her.

Abigail also has an ongoing conflict with Chase, Stacey's doppelganger, who disapproves of Stacey's decision to reveal their secret to her in The Water Tower, and refuses to trust her, even going so far as to deliberately make her feel unwanted - thought not, perhaps, as badly as some of their peers. It is, ironically, Chase's change of heart and willingness to trust her that leads to her death at Jace's hands in Seeing Triple.

Trivia

- While Stacey calls her 'Abby', Chase continues to address her as 'Hunter', up until her death in Seeing Triple.
