'''Cain''' (カイン ''Kain'') is a former resident of the planet [[Feminia]]. He is not a girl. After the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]] destroyed his homeworld, he moved to planet [[Zone (planet)|Zone]] to live and work with the [[Autobot|Autobots]]. He is best "friends" with an [[Earth]] boy named [[Akira Serikawa|Akira]] and has a talking pet bunny-bird named [[Emusa]].

:''Voice actor:'' [[Eiko Yamada]] (Japanese)

By god, what horror. A poor boy, whose home has been lost. His people, his very world, devastated by the Decepticons. It is only thanks to his friendship with the Autobots that he could possibly find joy.

Cain, rescued by [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]], and transported in [[Galaxy Shuttle]], found himself on Zone, surrounded by technology and robots. Not that he minded, even if his pet [[Emusa|rabbit-thingie]] did. This, it turned out, was still no safe haven. When the Decepticons attacked Zone, Cain was forced to leave that planet, joining the Autobots in pursuit of the Decepticons.

This took them to the planet Earth where Cain met a new friend, a young boy named Akira. He helped the Autobots to rescue Akira, and when the fighting was over admired the... beautiful scenery. What a wonderful world Earth was—almost as beautiful as Cain's lost home. {{storylink|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!}} {{storylink|Zone (manga)|Transformers: Zone}}

{{note|The single Zone manga story was basically a shortened retelling of the OAV episode, but came out three months before it did.}}

Later, Cain, Akira and Emusa were present on the Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]] when [[Metrotitan (Zone)|Metrotitan]] attacked the "Zone City" stationed there in defense of the planet. As Metrotitan obliterated both the base and [[Galaxy Shuttle]], the three escaped the destruction in [[Rabbicrater]]. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|''Zone'' story page #8}}

Returning to Earth, the three felt the effects of Metrotitan's new weapon, the "Freeze Beam Gun". [[Road Fire]] made short work of Metrotitan, ending this threat. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|''Zone'' story page #9}}

[[Violen Jiger]] himself then came to Earth, intent on stealing the Zodiac. He plowed through the Powered Masters to grab the Galaxy Rocket, both obtaining the Zodiac and abducting Emusa, Cain, Akira and Moonradar in the process. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|''Zone'' story page #10}}

The Powered Masters followed Violen Jiger to the mysterious [[Tenth Planet]], where Violen Jiger split into three insect monsters. Roadfire defended the Galaxy Rocket from Lenja, saving the captives inside. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|''Zone'' story page #11}}

After the Powered Masters defeated Violen Jiger's final form with their Zodiac-fueled Rainbow Powered Attack (... no, really), sunlight returned to the Tenth Planet. The Zodiac rainbow remained in the sky, causing the world to sprout greenery and flowers. Though Cain, Akira, Emusa and the Transformers all came from different worlds, they realized they'd need all their strength and each other's help to make this new world a peaceful one. As Cain and Akira ran through a field of flowers together, holding each other's hands, Emusa placed one in Akira's hair. {{storylink|Zone (story page)|''Zone'' story page #12}}

==Notes==
[[Image:Earlycainakiraemusa.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Don't ask what his power level is.]]
* Cain's name is written with the katakana used to render the name of the biblical Cain, hence the spelling used on this wiki.
* It is strongly implied that Cain and Akira are romantically attracted to one another. So yes, that would make them gay.
* Cain and his ''Zone'' chums went through some notable redesigning before they made it to the small screen. As illustrated at right, Cain was originally golden-haired and had a scarf. Also, dressed like [[wikipedia:Pegasus Seiya|Pegasus Seiya]].

Emusa

[[Image:ZoneEmusaCloseup.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Iiiii seeeee yoooou.]]
'''Emusa''' (エムサ, ''e-mu-sa'') is an extraterrestrial animal that resembles a pink raccoon-tailed rabbit with small wings. Despite their size in proportion to his (?) body, these wings allow Emusa to fly. He is also capable of speech and of compacting into a smaller, more puffball-esque shape, apparently by wrapping his tail around himself.

He acts as a pet to the humanoid alien [[Cain]]. His species may (or may not) have been native to Cain's planet of [[Feminia]]; if it ''was'' native, then its status following Feminia's obliteration doesn't look too good.

He's great with barbecue sauce and grilled mushrooms on side.

==Fiction==
===''Zone'' comic and story pages===
Along with Cain, Emusa was a survivor of the planet Feminia, which had been destroyed by [[Decepticon|Decepticons]]. They both ended up on [[Zone (planet)|planet Zone]].

One day, Emusa and Cain were riding around in [[Moonradar]] on the surface of Zone, passing by [[Glasspit]]'s [[Gasoline Base]] as they went. Unfortunately for them, [[Violen Jiger]]'s Generals [[Abominus]], [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Overlord (Masterforce)|Overlord]] picked that moment to attack; having already stolen the planet's special [[Energon Z]], they decided to take advantage of [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]]'s absence and cause havoc on the world. Emusa and Cain were shot at while riding, so Moonradar made tracks to the [[Rocket Base]], which transformed to retaliate.

[[Image:EmusaManga.jpg|left|200px|thumb|Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me.]]
The Generals fled, taking the Energon Z with them. Emusa and Cain accompanied Moonradar, the [[Super Car Patrol Team]] and the [[Battle Patrol Team]] aboard the Galaxy Rocket, which chased after the Generals until it was cocooned up in mid-space by [[Scorponok (G1)|BlackZarak]]. Fortunately, they were all rescued by the [[Jet Patrol Team]], and continued on their way to Earth.

Arriving on Earth, the rocket's manipulator claw saved the young, flower-picking [[Akira Serikawa|Akira]] from the path of [[Predaking]] and brought him aboard, where Emusa and Cain greeted him. After the rocket landed and transformed into a mini-base, Akira, Cain and Emusa cheered on the Battle Patrol Team and the Super Car Patrol Team as they drove to attack Generals [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]], Predaking and [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]] (although this went really REALLY badly).

After all the fighting was over, Emusa sat on Cain's shoulder and winked at Akira, who, having been invited to Zone, had put some flowers into a little vase for a gift. {{storylink|Zone (manga)|Zone (manga)}}

{{note|The single'' Zone ''manga story was basically a shortened retelling of the OAV episode, but came out three months before it did. Emusa's design was different in the manga, and his ability to speak is in question.}}

Later, Cain, Akira and Emusa were present on the Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]] when [[Metrotitan (G1)|Metrotitan]] attacked the "Zone City" stationed there in defense of the planet.

===''Zone'' OAV===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Yumi Tōma]]

Emusa was present with Cain when planet Feminia was attacked by the [[Nine Great Demon Generals|Demon Generals]] [[Abominus]], [[Overlord (Masterforce)|Overlord]], and [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]]. The Generals actually flew over them during their assault, and the wake of their destruction sent the pair flying. Soon the entire planet was suffering upheavals, and Emusa could only flap nearby as Cain held on to an upended patch of grass that was slowly sinking into a raging inferno.

[[Image:ZoneEmusaFullbody.jpg|left|200px|thumb|It's like Bright Heart Raccoon had a one-night stand with a cabbit.]]
Thankfully, the pair were saved by [[Star Saber (G1)|Victory Saber]], who handed them up to [[Holi]] aboard the overhead [[Galaxy Shuttle]]. While they were able to evacuate to outer space, Victory Saber was not so lucky, and Emusa watched as Cain grew angry over the apparent destruction of both his planet and his savior.

Presumably having no where else to go, Emusa and Cain went to live on [[Zone (planet)|planet Zone]], a machine-world populated primarily by [[Micromaster|Micro Transformers]]. This caused Emusa much annoyance; he complained that there wasn't a single flower on the entire planet! He then wondered if this made their companion [[Moonradar]] lonely, too, and Moonradar's statement to the negative sent Emusa into a rant, saying that as a living creature, he wanted to be around flowers and nature, not metal. Moonradar then pointed out that Transformers were living creatures, too, and Cain scolded Emusa for his comments, which the chastised Emusa could only weakly protest to.

Following an invasion of Zone by the Demon Generals, Emusa went with Cain aboard the Galaxy Rocket in an attempt to get Zone's [[Energon Z]] back. The ship was snared by [[Scorponok (G1)|BlackZarak]] in an electric net in an attempt to destroy them, sending shocks to everyone aboard, but they were soon rescued by the [[Jet Patrol Team]] and on their way to the Generals' next target: [[Earth]]!

Cain and Emusa next greeted [[Akira Serikawa|Akira]] when he was brought aboard the Galaxy Rocket by [[Whisper (Zone)|Whisper]]. The pair told Akira how impressed they were by Earth's beauty, with the gleeful Emusa hopping up and down on Cain's shoulder, elated by the abundance of nature. With Cain and Akira, Emusa witnessed the arrival of the [[Powered Masters]] [[Dai Atlas]] and [[Sonic Bomber]], saw Akira's subsequent shocked reaction that the Generals were after the [[Zodiac]], and Dai Atlas' use of same to allow himself and Sonic Bomber to enter "Zone Mode".

[[Image:ZoneEmusaPuffball.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Tiny pink powder puff.]]
After the defeat of the Generals, the heroes gathered and discussed the nature of the Zodiac, and Emusa invited Akira to come to Zone with them. Akira agreed, and presented the pair with a flower from his backpack; Emusa swooned and called it beautiful.

Returning to Zone, a ceremony was held to appoint Dai Atlas as the new Supreme Commander of the Autobots. The flying Emusa struggled to bring Dai Atlas a huge bouquet of Earth flowers, but lost his grip on it, sending the petals raining down on the laughing boys and nearby Autobots as the crowd cheered on Dai Atlas' name. {{storylink|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!|Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!}}

==Trivia==
* For years, the North American [[fandom]] did not know Emusa's name, so referred to him as the "Zone Bunny".

Emusa

:''Emusa is an [[alien]] animal in the [[Zone]] portion of the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:emusa.jpg|thumb|right|250px|AAAAAAAAAAAAA]]

'''Emusa''' (エムサ, ''e-mu-sa'') is an extraterrestrial animal that resembles a pink raccoon-tailed rabbit with small wings. Despite their size in proportion to his (?) body, these wings allow Emusa to fly. He is also capable of speech, and talks in the third person.

He acts as a pet to the humanoid alien [[Cain]]. His species may (or may not) have been native to Cain's planet of [[Feminia]]; if it ''was'' native, then its status following Feminia's obliteration doesn't look too good.

He is sometimes referred to as the "Zone Bunny" by the ''Transformers'' fandom.

He's great with barbecue sauce.

==Animated continuity==

:''Voice Actress:'' [[Yumi Tōma]]

Emusa was present with Cain when planet Feminia was attacked by the Demon-Generals [[Abominus]], [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]], and [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]]. The pair were in grave danger, but were saved by [[Star Saber (G1)|Victory Saber]], which allowed them to reach [[Galaxy Shuttle]] in time to evacuate the planet. Victory Saber was not quite as fortunate - he was caught in the blast of Feminia's destruction, which Emusa and Cain witnessed from space.

Presumably having no where else to go, Emusa and Cain went to live on [[Zone (planet)|planet Z]] ("Zone"), a machine-world populated primarily by [[Micromaster|Micro Transformers]]. This caused Emusa much aggravation; he complained that, as a living creature, he wanted to be around flowers and nature, not metal. [[Moonradar]] then pointed out that Transformers were living creatures, too.

===''Zone'' manga===
[[Image:EmusaManga.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me.]]

Along with Cain, Emusa was a survivor of the destroyed planet Feminia. They both ended up on planet Z.

One day, Emusa and Cain were riding around in Moonradar on the surface of Z, passing by [[Glasspit]]'s [[Gasoline Base]] as they went. Unfortunately for them, [[Violen Jygar]]'s Generals [[Abominus]], [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]], [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Overlord]] picked that moment to attack, apparently as part of a plot to steal the planet's special [[Energon Z]] (which they already had in their possession). Emusa and Cain were shot at while riding, causing Moonradar to make tracks to the [[Rocket Base]], which then transformed to retaliate.

The Generals fled, taking the Energon Z with them. Emusa and Cain accompanied Moonradar and the [[Super Car Patrol Team]] aboard Rocket Base's rocket, which chased after the Generals until it was cocooned up in mid-space by [[Black Zarak]]. Fortunately, they were all rescued by the [[Jet Patrol Team]], and continued on their way to Earth.

Arriving on Earth, the rocket's manipulator claw saved the young, flower-picking [[Akira]] from the path of [[Predaking]] and brought him aboard, where Emusa and Cain greeted him. After the rocket landed and transformed into a mini-base, Akira, Cain and Emusa cheered on the [[Battle Patrol Team]] and the Super Car Patrol Team as they drove to attack Generals [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]], Predaking and [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]] (although this went really REALLY badly).

After all the fighting was over, Emusa winked at Akira from Cain's shoulder after he had put some flowers into a little vase.

{{note|The single'' Zone ''manga story was basically a shortened retelling of the OAV episode. Emusa's design was altered for the manga, and his ability to speak is in question. He still appeared to be sapient, however, as he had a thought balloon.}}
