She's very respectful, she'd never go far with being upset, if someone groped her (Which has happend, go school system and drunken tourists) she'd simply slap them, huff, frown and walk off. Perhaps get one of her older brothers to take it up to a more extreme level, depending on how persistant the person was. However as a shrine maiden of sorts for the kami Inari, god of rice and associated with wealth, she's confident that her families devotion will move them out of the poverty scale and onto something better. She may be a bit dense at times, but she's never lacking in spirit.

Background//
Natsumi grew up in town just about 6 miles outside of Kyoto helping her mother, father and two older brothers work in the local Inari shrine. (Note: They didn't own it, just worked in it.) She spent most of her childhood, following her mother around to learn the ins and outs of clean-up duty, along with selling various novelty items to tourists and others for the offerings.
As she grew older it became routine to head off to school, then come home and help her mother out with daily chores. Each getting more and more complicated as she aged.
Her family was never the richest, as you can imagine shrine cleanup duty didn't pay much for a 5-person family. And they oftened dreamed of heading to America, "the land of opportunity."
Natsumi excelled in her studies, majorly in language skills and other things that required quick memorziational learning. This also included math formulas, histories(involved memorizing dates and names), and spelling.
Her sport of chocie was gymnastics and acrobatics. Or atleast her favorite choice, any others she got stuck in such as vollyball would end poorly. However she managed to attend the championship in her area for gymnastics, coming in first place. (She would have made it onto higher leauges but her parents couldn't afford the trip money nor could they leave the shrine, so she faked a sprained ankle and stayed to keeping this to a hobby)
She had a boyfriend more recently, perhaps a month or two ago. They were fairly secretive about the whole thing and it ended shortly after it had begun.
Why America?
Mostly it's her parents influence. They're somewhat old, work in a poor paying job, and idolize america to an extent. They don't feel that they'd ever got themselves, but they felt because of their own family she'd have more opportunity there than in Japan. In alot of places your family matters as to how high in life you get, women have less chance of getting jobs and rely on their husbands(This IS changing, but in a old fasion shrine-area where she comes from it's not as caught up with places like tokyo and such) but because her family were merely janitorial like workers they never beleived she could get much out of life there because of them. And this was implanted in her head throughout her life.
And the "freedom" america seems to promise to most other countries was an added bonus. And theres more room. Theres alot of stories where korean, japanese, chinese ect women talka bout how many things you can get in america vrs their home contries where everythigns so small and compact.

To the Island//
As Natsumi's 19th birthday neared a new problem overcame their family's poverty issue.
Her family would surely be shamed if they found out... So she had one choice, to leave for America as they had allways hoped for, marry a man and live out respectably. It may have shamed her to do so... But atleast then her family would be spared, and she could take that shame alone.
She tried to find scholarships, jobs, and other things that could bring her to America. She applied in many places, but most were turned down due to outside funds. While she was smart, she wasn't smart enough to get international scholarships. (That crap is like.. woh. XD) Even trying for jobs that would take her there, which would be even better... If she could, then she could pay for her family's way too... eventually.
She applied to Feral labs, under a translator position. She knew English, Japanese, and German. And a few words in spanish... So she figured it was her best option. Not like they'd need a shrine cleaner in a place like that.
She sent the same to other international companies, but all rejected or unresponcive.
Feral labs did return a letter, accepting her for a job. Inside the letter they provided a plane ticket for the girl, along with instructions on what to bring.
Her family was overjoyed, as was she as they all hurried about their tiny house to pack her bags and get her ready for the trip that weekend.
Her family sent her off, telling her she would easily find a husband and become a citizen and excell in her work. If she did return, the family would wecome her back with open arms, atleast thats what they said. But if she didn't, then that would mean she had found a husband and was on her way to getting that elusive green card and living "happily ever after."
She left under the ____(I can not find CRAP about this. D: I don't think it's that important though... If it is, can someone help me find it? I swear I've looked for liek 3 hours. XD) district. And if everything went as planned, no one woudl know about her shame, only hers to bear, and perhaps she could even bring her family to ehr new home.
She boarded the small plane with her tiny suitcase, packed only with clothes and things to remember her family by. A portrait, some charms from the shrine, and a small snack for the road. Simple and plain as the letter had instructed.
The whole thing may have been suspecious, but no one seemed to think of that. The family simply said that all their years in the Inari shrine had finally lead them to wealth. And Natsumi welcomed the quick get away with open arms.
Why chose her?
-She's obedient in nature.
-She's agile, and light weight perfect for the DNA
-She's a forigner, trying to move to america and would be practically untracable.
