History: Natsumi was born in Japan with her parents and grew up to what she thought was going to be a normal life. To Natsumi and her parents' surprise, Natsumi wasn't so normal. Besides being an excellent gymnast, she had grown car ears and a tail that as she got older seem to be growing a stump and would later be a forked tail. Her eyes started to get cat like that helped her see in low light areas. To hide the eyes, she wore contacts, the tail was tucked away and she wore a baseball cap to hide the ears that would spark questions.
Natsumi advanced in gymnastic that put some children to shame. Her parents were proud, but if she went off to the Olympics, it would be harder to hide her ears and tail. They pulled her out to help around the house and eventually home schooled her once the tail wasn't able to be hidden. Later on, Natsumi worked on hiding her cat appendages so she could go out again. The loneliness made her slip into a depression. When she figured it out, she went out to shop and enjoy her life.
Of course she was thrown questions of why she had to stay home and why there couldn't be any visitors. She lied and said she thought being home schooled would help her concentrate on her work. The lie stuck and people believed her not knowing of her ability.
Since then she is still a great gymnast with the ability to hide her black ears and tail.
