Personality: Sakura is an upbeat, fun loving punk. You'll often find her riding a skateboard, running around arcades, and getting into all sorts of trouble with her friends. The kindhearted girl loves to uplift people's moods, and make people laugh. She cares for her friends, and hates seeing them pushed around. If someone decides to bully those close to Sakura, they can expect to be bullied right back! She has quite the competitive streak, and loves getting into fights with girls close to her age. Being so young, she can be quite naive, impressionable, and immature. When exhausted, she's prone to whine and complain a lot, though she means no disrespect to anyone by it. She idolizes her friend and mentor, Skylar Jones, and wants to be just like her some day.
Backstory: Sakura Tanahashi was born to a happy family of three. She has very positive memories of her early childhood. The good was not to last however, as when she was five, her mother passed away from Cancer, leaving her and her father behind. Her father, unable to cope with the loss of his wife, turned to drugs and alcohol, growing neglectful and distant. Sakura was left to fend for herself, her life an empty husk of what it once was. Over the years, she grew into a hot tempered, rebellious delinquent.It seemed every other week she was getting in trouble for stealing and vandalism, and getting into fights. She was an angry, angry kid without a role model. But one day when she was seventeen, she was being chased down the street by a store employee after making a run for it with a stolen handheld game system. Naturally fast on her feet, it would've seemed that she would be able to easily outrun the man, but as she got cocky, someone else's foot tripped her, sending her tumbling to the ground. The worker caught up to her and thanked the stranger, before demanding that Sakura return what she'd stolen. Grumbling, Sakura reached into her pockets to pull out the game, only to find that it was gone, much to her confusion. Shocked, the stranger shamed the employee for harassing a teen girl and accusing her of stealing, sending him walking back awkwardly to the store where he worked. As Sakura got back to her feet, the stranger wore a sly grin, handing the stolen game system back to her, after having snatched it from her pocket as she fell.
The stranger was a young woman named Skylar Jones, and the two became fast friends. Sakura already thought she was cool at first, but when she found out she was a pro wrestler, she was even more impressed! As they hung out more and more, Sakura grew to greatly look up to Skylar, wanting to grow up just like her. Skylar adored Sakura, and hoping to set her on the right path, took her under her wing. She advised that once she was out of High School, she signed up with LAW's Young Lioness program as her trainee. Sakura, having no other plans for after High School, jumped at the chance to train under Skylar. As High School ended, and she finally turned eight-teen, she rushed to get a room in the Young Lioness dorms, and train for her future as a pro wrestler!
