Clare goes to a co-ed Catholic school, where she is officially classified as weird by many there. She has one good friend - made during Clare rescuing said friend from the school bullies. Clare has had a lousy childhood and the one stability she had was her martial arts. This comes in handy in a few short months in Clare's life where, having knifed a pervert in his car and possibly getting away with it, (except for the cop who seems to know too much and happens to be the step father of Clare's crush).
