|Personality|

Catherine is a bright, energetic and athletic high-school student. Many male students consider her attractive. She alternates between melancholy and incredible optimism, often unpredictably. Catherine is indeed stubborn and doesn't like to admit her mistakes, usually blaming other people. Also, she gets angry very easily, being an egotistical, irascible and impulsive person. Her behavior is considered eccentric, and she has little interest in her classmates. Though Catherine's personality may be described as overpowering, it's useful to say the least. Catherine has a knack for convincing others to do what she wants.

Catherine shows a little bit of self-centeredness, she is often seen bullying her members into agreeing with her many ridiculous ideas. Catherine has a very competitive personality, and accepts any challenge that she comes across without hesitation, regardless of difficulty or time constraint. Her constant optimism and over-confidence causes others to view her as arrogant. While she is competitive and quite intelligent, her brashness leads to her being unable to make tactical decisions, and she often rushes head first into anything that she considers a worthy challenge. She has impossibly high standards, and won't accept anything less than perfection from herself.

Catherine seems to enjoy being the center of attention. Catherine also does her best to show no signs of weakness, the few times that she shows signs of vulnerability are when she's alone with someone she trusts.

Catherine also has an inferiority complex and a short temper. She is sarcastic, cynical, and prideful, but she is actually a good person inside. Because she is misunderstood, people don't see that she is shy and easily in love with others.

Catherine is the totally fixated with imagination. If this goes unchecked, she may be criticized as being an escapist or an idealist (not that she gives a damn) and run the risk of becoming hurt when they can no longer ignore the reality of a situation. However, Catherine's ability to play make-believe is a coveted asset most adults forsake when they enter the work force and wish they could somehow maintain with an ease comparable to that which they seem to possess. Catherine, under her fake façade, is highly emotive, usually considering relationships with either a romantic partner or friends as they go about the day.

Furthermore, Catherine is a dreamer (explains why she always gets lost in the books she is reading); when she is not thinking in terms of what could be, she is adding some fantastical details to an already pleasant situation in her mind. To her, everything is fascinating and has the possibility of being highly exciting. She never relinquishes their ability to imagine as a child.

At first glance it may seem as though nothing really bothers Catherine but under further scrutiny it will be revealed that she is highly sensitive. She cares deeply about her relationships with others. And although sometimes criticized as traveling through a haze, her attachments to others seem to mean the world to them. Generally, she doesn't like small talk and will often invent stories or offer off-kilter input to keep a conversation interesting.

Catherine retains her modesty (sometimes). She is graceful and "clean", yet chooses to talk to ordinary people. However, her cool and lone demeanor often forces her to hide her personal troubles, even from her friends. Catherine hardly ever opens up her heart, and has difficulty making friends. So she puts on the stubborn and bitch façade. She is clueless as well. She is very good at acting, having acted her way through a number of tough situations, such as getting out of trouble with school teachers.

| Yumeno Hajima Ring Ring | Kyary Pamyu Pamyu |

Until now I’ve made various really good memories

Don’t forget to push the track

From now we own our future

Go buy a ticket to excitement

Goodbye teacher, my friend

Time to go, heart is pounding

Sour candy on my lips

Expectation in the unknown city

Goodbye teacher, my friend

Thank you. Courage, please.

From my room, my dreams are beginning. Ring Ring.

Ring Ring

Walked this road every day

Won’t be able to see you for a while, I think it’ll be lonely

Feel the anxiety and hope of tomorrow

Because saying goodbye will make my dreams come true

Goodbye teacher, my friend

Time to go, heart is pounding

Sour candy on lips

Clenching to fight back tears

Goodbye teacher, my friend

Thank you. Courage, please.

From my room, my dreams are beginning. Ring Ring.

Goodbye teacher, my friend.

Time to go, heart is pounding

Sour candy on lips

Expectation in the unknown city

Goodbye teacher, my friend

Thank you, courage please.

From my room, my dreams are beginning. Ring Ring.

"Do you need anything else?"

Catherine's mother called out while sitting down in an old chair in the small kitchen. Meanwhile, Catherine was scrambling around, trying to make sure she had everything in check before she headed off to the ship to her school. Her dark hair bobbed around in it's ponytail that was tied up with a silk white ribbon. She was wearing a matching white dress that fell down to her knees. It was short-sleeved and plain with small buttons in the middle starting from her neckline going down to her waist. Usually she didn't dress so 'sweetly' but her mother had told her she should at least try and not look scary on the first day. Even though it took awhile, Catherine agreed to wear something nice.

So there she was, sliding around on the shiny wooden floors in her white socks. Her mother had cleaned the woodened floors just the day before, too. If she hadn't, Catherine wouldn't of been able to slide around in her socks since usually the floor at least has something scattered about on it to prevent her from doing just that. Catherine slid from room to room, trying to make sure she had grabbed everything she needed. Her mother just watched her daughter in amusement as she watched Catherine pop in and out of the kitchen door.

Catherine settled down and walked to the kitchen door once again, smoothing her dress out along the way. She had a large black bag slung over her right shoulder. The bag was carrying all her items and belongings she needed...but was quite heavy. It was just a little less then half of Catherine's own weight. Catherine had almost tumbled over to the side when she slung the bag over her shoulder, but remained her posture and quickly stood up straight.

"I had asked if you needed anything--"

"I have everything I need, mom. I'm sure." Catherine interrupted her mother as she stared at her with a blank face, going over the mental note in her mind just to make sure she just did have everything.

"Ok. Do you want me to go with you?" Her mom asked while standing up and walking towards her daughter. Her mother was quite short, shorter then Catherine now. She somehow retained a youthful appearance though, some getting her mistaken as Catherine's older sister.

"Mom, I'm fine. You don't have to come. I just need to stop at the bookstore to grab a couple things and then I'll be off." Catherine denied, insuring her mother she'd be fine. Her mother smiled and nodded her head as she got close up to Catherine and cupped her face in her small hands.

"Ok, hun. I hope you have a great time. I love you." Her mother said softly, reaching in to plant a kiss on Catherine's cheek. Catherine quickly batted her away with her hand and stepped back, trying to get out of the situation.

"Ok, mom. Goodbye. I love you too. I have to get going."
Catherine said, biding her farewell to her mother. Her mother was the only other person she lived with...so she didn't have to say any other goodbyes to anyone. Her mother smiled again and waved goodbye to her daughter as she exited the front door. Her mother wasn't at all scared for Catherine, she just hoped she wouldn't cause any trouble out there.





And there Catherine was, walking down the street of Rhiamon Way. Her flat shoes clicked softly against the ground as she continued struggling with that damn black bag on her shoulder. She huffed and puffed as she struggled to walk the busy street, people every so often bumping into her roughly. She had let her black, white and orange cat, Finn, out of the bag and he was now roaming around behind Catherine. She was keeping Finn inside her bag for awhile, but thought he was only adding to the heavy weight and decided to let him out.

Catherine could finally see the sign to the book shop, which she was pretty sure that Liam guy worked at. She sighed in relief as she approached it. Finally, she could get the thing she needed, and she could rest...

Suddenly, Finn ran up to her and somehow managed to run in between her ankles, causing her to stumble down. The cat got in the way of Catherine's path and turned back to watch Catherine fall with the weight of her bag, not having enough strength to regain her balance this time.

Catherine gasped as she fell, then landed into a pair of strong arms. A man, an older gentleman, had caught her swiftly. She innocently looked up at him, not knowing what to say.

"Whoa. Be a little more careful there, young lady." The man said with a kind smile on his face. Catherine quickly gathered herself together. "Oh, I'm sorry, sir..." She said quietly, but then quickly regretted her words and her face turned into a straight expression. "Thank you." She said, a little more stern then the last. She quickly smoothed out her dress and put her bag comfortably on her shoulder again before turning away from the kind man and walking away towards the book shop again. She didn't even bother to look back at him to see his reaction or expression on his face.

"Damn you, Finn." She cursed at the calico cat that was now walking beside her, loud enough only for the cat to hear. The cat, what looked like to Catherine, had a playful smirk plastered on its tiny face. Catherine glared heavily at the cat before opening the door to the book shop.

Finn ran in ahead of Catherine, almost tripping her over again. Catherine scowled at the cat that was now looking back at her and waiting for her to enter behind himself. "Ever heard of ladies first, stupid cat?" She said stubbornly, again, only for the cat to hear. She didn't even bother to look up and see if she saw any of her friends or anyone that looked familiar was there. She was just so exhausted from the heavy bag on her shoulder....and she also didn't want anyone she knew to see her flustered face from falling earlier.

Catherine's eyes darted in every direction of the small store to see if there was any chair or something she could sit on so she could rest for a split second. Her eyes landed on a small chair off in the corner by some book shelves and she quickly headed over to that chair, Finn following closely behind her. She mumbled something as she plopped down in the comfy chair, letting the heavy bag slide off her shoulder and onto the ground. She buried her face in her hands as she sighed. She could hear some familiar voices talking about the small shop, but she didn't even bother to look up and see if she saw anyone she knew. She knew she needed to hurry up and get the books she needed, but she didn't have the strength right now. Her shoulder was aching and she was already exhausted. Finn jumped up onto Catherine's lap and quickly plopped down on it. She sighed heavily again. Now she knew she wasn't getting up anytime soon because of this stupid cat...

Claudia breathed a sigh of relief. They'd gotten around the group in the doorway, and had avoided conflict. She was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Eric insulted Chloe.
Claudia was very tempted to facepalm, but that was nothing like her. Letting out an audible sigh, she looked her sister in the eyes. "Flavia, stay here while I go and sort this out." She muttered. She doubted she would do as she was told, but it was worth a try. She walked out from behind the bookshelves to see Eric and Chloe in the middle of a shouting match. Vivian, a girl that Claudia didn't know too well, but was familiar with, had crept in too. Claudia sighed and watched as Chloe seemed to 'fight' with herself, and then punched Eric in the jaw. Claudia thought this was strange, the way the girl had used physical violence instead of drawing her wand. Claudia sighed.
A little boy, a first year, from the looks of him, rushed in with his older brother in tow. Claudia seemed to recoil, not physically, but personality wise. He was a lot older than her, and if she recalled correctly, was responsible for bullying Liam. She heard the bright and chipper words of Aurora. Oh great. Flavia seemed extremely happy by this fact, and Claudia made herself not look as her sister tackled her with a hug. Claudia shuffled through the crowd gently to get to Liam, holding a small slip of paper in her hand. "Um, Liam, if it's okay..." Her eyes gazed at the floor, at her feet that seemed to shift her weight and scuff the floor of their own accord. Signs that she wasn't feeling very comfortable. "They're for, um..." She trailed off awkwardly, looking at him in the eyes and pulling a face. A familiar Irish voice rang in her ears, and she turned to see Jim arrive. She smiled slightly before turning back to Liam and sighing again. "Only if it's not too much trouble." She told him.
The door opened once again, and Thomas Decius walked in. In his hands he held something sure to set her sister off. She cringed as her sister squealed rather loudly, obviously rather excited. She muttered a quick "Sorry." to Liam, and an awkward smile. She looked over at the first years.

Flavia wanted to see some action, so she did. Totally ignoring her sister, Flavia followed Claudia out from behind the book case and watched as the blonde girl hit one of the older boys. This wasn't Liam, Liam was with his sister, who Flavia desperately wanted to talk to. She was about to wave at her, when she saw an Asian girl sitting in a chair in a corner, with a cat curled up on her lap. Flavia thought the cat was adorable, a bit like Fizz. She walked until she was a little way away, before asking; "Is it okay to pet him or her?" She smiled at her, and waited until she spoke.
The door opened once more, and in walked Aurora, Flavia's favourite person. With a huge grin on her face, Flavia squealed loudly. "Aurora!!!" She half skipped, half ran over to Aurora, and tackled hugged her. "I missed you!" She looked over and saw her sister shuffling away, with the arrival of more older people, and one first year. She promptly let go of Aurora and introduced herself to the boy. "Hi! I'm Flavia!" She grinned at him happily, feeling very full of energy, perhaps because she was so excited. She almost didn't hear a male voice talking about the broom shop, but she caught the tail end of it, and turned around to see...
Was that an Aether V?!
"That is NO WAY an Aether V." She stated, walking over to it, and examining it carefully. "No way. It is!!" Her voice raised slightly. "Oh my gosh. How did you manage to afford it? It's, like, the newest in the Series!" She walked over to him. "Can I touch it?" She asked, not feeling weird in the slightest. How jealous would her dad be if she said she touched an Aether V?
