Atari gets caught up in an Autorooper riot.
Synopsis
Atari Hitotonari wakes up one morning, eats her omelet, and goes about her day, same as ever. Over and over again. Is there any point to this? Deflated ever since Kayu Michikusa left, Atari perks up a bit when Ringo Chikuma sends her pictures of Kayu to her mobile phone (as she has none herself), only to find that they're all terrible. Ringo has bullied Kayu just like she is doing to Atari now, it seems. Atari realizes that's why Kayu was hesitant to stop Ringo before.
Autoroopers suddenly run amuck in the Earth Defense Command base, and one of them is Kayu's Ne-02 unit! Seeing that the rabid Autorooper has beaten up everybody in the vicinity, Atari attempts to reason with who she thinks is Kayu inside, only to see Ringo's Ne-01 fire upon the errant Transformer. Atari, in desperation, fuses with her Ne-04 Autorooper, finding her solitude inside him to be warm and comfortable. She removes herself from the world, electing to let Autorooper take care of things. She wakes up from her dream, finding Autorooper's hands drenched with blood and Ringo crying. Atari fears the worst for Kayu...

Notes
- Thankfully for Atari's guilt, Kayu is implied to have survived the ordeal, showing up in Legends Bonus Edition Vol. 19 wrapped in bandages. Kiss Players itself offers no definitive word on her fate.
