As Yoshida Katashi and Yoshida (Nee: BeauchĂȘne) Katsumi held a small bundle in their arms. They were in a VIP room in Wakkanai City General Hospital, on the Hokkaidai island (North Island).

"Katashi!" Katsumi said when the baby opened her eyes. Katashi looked at the baby and gasped too.

"That's not normal." Katashi said.

The doctor came in and took a look at what the commotion was all about.

"Heterochromia Iridus. . . Here's two possible causes to this. Either it is an eye disease or she was just born that way due to abnormal genetics." The doctor said.

"I'll have to check her for any eye disease." The doctor said as Katsumi handed her newborn child over. When the doctor was gone Katsumi turned towards Katashi.

"The public should not know about her. We made that mistake with Hideaki and he never was given a proper childhood with friends and everything. We'll keep her hidden, I'll ask my sister to babysit her without causing any controversy." Katashi said. Katsumi nodded.

They took care of Satomi at home and showered her with love.

When they couldn't give her the love needed they bought her a kitten.

She named her pet 'Dizzy' since the cat love chasing around her favorite ball of yarn or her favorite laser making everyone else dizzy.

With all the love that Satomi showered 'Dizzy' with any other pet would be jealous. Dizzy always had nice soft beds to curl up in or a very nice scratch post or cat playground, but Dizzy prefer to curl up in Satomi's lap, the pet-owner bond was really strong in Kaminari's early years.

But there were many theories that Satomi would grow up like Hideaki, her older brother, all visuals and acting, not athletics.

Soon after a few years Satomi was forgotten by the public.

At age 3, the whole family moved to Toyko, metropolitan area.

By age 5 Katashi wanted his daughter to be a little more active. He thought tennis wouldn't be a good sport to start too early, the muscles and bones are still developing and a five year old's arm and wrist was probably not strong enough to swing a racquet.

Katashi was proven wrong. When Katashi was practicing tennis once he had to bring Satomi, who also brought Dizzy along. He told her to watch from a side, but being a five year old she was rebellious. She took Dizzy and wandered off onto a court and got a tennis ball. At first she was just rolling the ball to Dizzy, but soon she got bored.

When Katashi couldn't find her sitting where he told her to he freak out. Soon enough he found her on a court on the opposite side, using all her arm strength and throwing balls at cans from 5 yards away while Dizzy was curled up at her feet.

He was about to call out to her when she threw the first ball, hit the can's bulls eye and made the can go flying.

'A five year old shouldn't have that much strength!' Katashi thought continue watching his daughter. She did the same for the other cans.

"Tousan! Did you see me?" Satomi asked. Katashi realized Satomi knew he was there the whole time.

'Must have keen eyesight too...' Katashi took note of.

"Yes you were great, but don't wander off. You scared Tousan!" Katashi playful scolded with a smile.

For a year Katashi trained Satomi with basic skills, she was a fast learner.

By age 6 Satomi pleaded her father for some actual competition. Katashi advised her to join the club of her school. She told him that with her aunt's (Katashi's sister's) consent she already did so and defeated everyone her age and a little bit older than her with basic skills.

Katashi knew that tennis was going to shape Satomi's future, so he signed her up for a private school in the Kanto Region's prefecture, Kanagawa, in a city called Yokohama, and the school is called Mituzu Academy.

Satomi's competition got slightly harder, but still managed to gain the top position.

But Satomi's playing style for a while was the exact same playing style as her father's.

When watching the Wimbledon on TV one day she turned towards Katashi.

"What is a style of tennis?" Kaminari asked.

"Everyone has their own style of how they play tennis. My style is Speedy Net play. I like playing at the net and I'm able to jump and move to the ball quite fast. My older best friend/rival, you might have heard of him, Echizen Nanjiro, his playing style is not the same as mine. Right now you have the same style as mine and can play at the net without any problem, your speed is exceptional, but it's not your own style." Katashi said.

"Can you train me to discover it?" Satomi asked. Katashi nodded.

Satomi stopped going to her club and started doing individual training at her father's gym. Katsumi was proud of her daughter taking on her father's prodigy genetics in tennis.

By age 8 two tragedies had struct her. First was Dizzy.

Dizzy was diagnosed with Rabies as he got weaker and weaker. Satomi refused to let the veterinarian put down Dizzy. She was crying, and the only way to do so was to distract Satomi. Katashi distracted her by playing a match with her while Dizzy was put down. Satomi lost either way, but when she found out about Dizzy she was devastated. She realized that her father had purposely distracted her, and she never forgave him for that.

Dizzy was a life long companion. He had been there when both of her parents hadn't. He was her pillar of support and happiness when she was down. He was her cuddle buddy when her parents weren't there to tuck her in bed. Learning he was put down while her father distracted her tore her apart. Dizzy was the only one there when no on else was, they had a special bond.

Satomi was angry at her father for a few days, and refused to talk to him. She kept on demanding for Dizzy. She vowed that she would defeat him one day, it was the least she could do for Dizzy. But since the tragedy she never had the same bond with her father. They talked during her training, but she kept everything short and sweet.

This was ONLY THE BEGINNING of the strain on the father daughter relationship.

Second was her parents. They got into fights more often seeing as her father was never home since he was managing his tennis private club, it was a chain called the Yoshida Tennis Club. There were locations in major cities in the Kanto Region and other major cities in Japan.

Her mother believed her father was cheating on her since he never spent much time with the family. He tried to explain to her, but she would buy it. Soon the fights became about the most petty things. When they couldn't stand it anymore they divorced. They agreed no matter how much they had loved each other it wouldn't work. Katashi kept to himself a few days and just couldn't do anything. Katsumi stayed at her parents.

When they went to court to decide who got what it was agreed. Because Katashi paid for the house he would get the house. Katsumi wanted her children, but Katashi said he at least wanted Satomi. They agreed that Hideaki would go with Katsumi and Satomi with Katashi. They would be allowed to visit their their other parent though.

Satomi was conflicted during his time. She was too confused. She wanted her mother and father with her growing up. She didn't know what to do.

Because of her stored up anger towards her father and his decisions, she let it all out and started discovered her own style.

At first she called it 'Take Down Style'. She used last second tactics and her sharp eyes, along with extreme accuracy, and fast reflexes to play tennis. Her game of tennis is what puts tacticians on edge. They can never find out her full potential, because her game changes all the time, even against the same opponents her next move is always unpredictable. But it soon evolved from that.

That was the second part of her style of tennis was called the 'Speed Play Style'. She liked to call her most powerful move 'Invisible Shot', the ball moved so fast to the point you don't even see the streak of yellow and by the time it already bounced at least once the opponent finally realizes that it was on their side of the court. This move she was told not to use unless in VERY difficult circumstances, because it put too much strain on her arms, since speed and swing is key, meaning pulling a muscle would be quite common when using this.

Of course she toned her other abilities including curve shots, slices, top spins, forehand, and backhand. With her age and height volleys and overheads were difficult.

But it was far from what her actually playing style would be. All her skills would soon merge into one style of tennis 'Assasssin Style'.

By age 9 she started playing against junior high students (middle schoolers) and won. Instead of having matches all the time she thought training would improve her.

Her father was her coach, he had the most brutal training system ever, at least for a nine year old.

By age 10 he signed her up for singles matches against high school and college players. She kept her winning streak, and soon got a public image.

Her public image was a bit different though.

Whenever she played tennis she wore a white face mask to cover her mouth and nose, and her eyes were always covered by her tennis visor.

Her name was unknown, except her father almost said her name in public once. He said 'Tomi-' (her nickname) before he realized his mistake. With that accident she was given the nickname 'Tomi' for public use.

Her life was just a mess from there on.
