A New Addition to the Hitachiins

When Toshirō's mother dies in a car wreck caused by drunk driving, she's in the danger of being sent to an orphanage. Who knows what would greet her there. Probably nothing good.

So she takes the obvious route, and runs away, joining a circus.

*************************************

Name: Toshirō Griffin

Age: 15

Physical Description: 5'8, has chest length black hair with a dark red streak on one side and has a braided string with a black feather attached to her hair (she usually tucks her hair under a hat or wears it in a ponytail or braid), has pale skin, and dark eyes (she used to wear blue contacts) (she also used to dye her hair the same red as her streak)

Toshirō's father and Mrs. Hitachiin used to be married, but they were blackmailed, and forced to divorce each other.

Toshirō's father remarried to her mother, but died soon after. Toshirō was raised by her mother, but her mother passed away when she was four. She was left alone, with no known relatives.

Mrs. Hitachiin also remarried, moved to Japan, and quickly became a successful fashion designer. However, when she tried to search for the whereabouts of her ex husband, she discovered that he'd also remarried, but passed away. His wife had also passed away, leaving behind a young girl, who, according to official documents was adopted, but moved around quite often. The only item she could use to identify the daughter was a picture of a girl with dark red hair and electric blue eyes.

Toshirō didn't want to be plopped down in some random orphanage, so she ran away. After that, she smashed her contacts and stopped dyeing her hair red, trying to forget. She joined a circus, and was adopted by the ringleader, James Davids, a 33-year old man with silky blond hair and clear blue eyes. She trained under him for all types of circus performances, and excelled in acrobatics and working with the animals. She became best friends with Aaron Davids, her adopted brother. They almost always stayed together.

Toshirō quickly became the top performer, and the circus gained enough wealth and fame to travel around the world. Even to Japan.
