Miki Katsuragi
Miki Katsuragi (葛城 美姫 Katsuragi Miki) is a character from GTO: Shonan 14 Days. She is the daughter of a high ranking police official who was placed in the White Swan facility after her mother's death as her father is too much a workaholic to care for her himself. She abuses the special emergency call function her father placed on her phone in order to get his attention.
She is initially the most antagonistic of the White Swan residents to Onizuka, but he keeps trying to get through to her, showing her his "special place" (a tower he used to climb to see the city at night). When Miki runs away, she calls some friends to pick her up but before they arrive she gets in a black van with a guy named Kei, after he rescued her from some harassers. Once she's in the van, she discovers Kei is a kidnapper who has been abducting girls off the street for an illegal underage pornography site. She tries pressing the panic button, but her father ignores it, thinking she's crying wolf. He doesn't commit police forces to rescue her until Onizuka drives to the police building and tells him, with Ayame backing him up.
Onizuka mobilizes hundreds of bikers to look for Miki, but the police waste time trying to arrest them until they make Katsuragi realize that they have the same goal as him. He orders the police to focus on the kidnapping instead of the bikers, and they track down the kidnappers' hideout just in time. After this, Miki is much friendlier to Onizuka.
