Miko was sitting outside her high school sketching Arcee who was parked in motorcycle mode. She received a phone call from her host parents, but decided to ignore it. When Jack rode off on Arcee, so she decided to follow the motorcycle because it was the coolest ever. She caught up to Jack in an ally. She overheard his conversation with Arcee, who had transformed. Arcee was asking Jack to go back with her to Autobot headquarters for his own safety. When Jack hesitated, Miko encouraged him to go.
Since Miko now also knew about the Autobots, Arcee took both of the humans back to headquarters. When Ratchet was surprised to see three humans, Arcee jokingly explained that the youngsters had multiplied. Miko introduced herself to Bulkhead and asked a barrage of questions. Bulkhead stood at a loss for words. Optimus Prime arrived and explained about "autonomous robotic organisms" and the Transformer civil war. Darkness Rising, Part 1
Ratchet picked up Cliffjumper's signal. He believed it was a computer system error, since Cliffjumper had previously went offline. Prime went to investigate anyway, and Miko offered to help. Prime told the humans to remain with Ratchet, to both Miko and Ratchet's dismay. When the humans had to return home, Prime assigned Bulkhead to watch over Miko. Darkness Rising, Part 2
Notes
- During the Transformers: Prime presentation at San Diego Comic-Con 2010, Miko was given the surname "Tezuka", likely an early name for the character. [1] With the surname change, the franchise was sadly robbed of having a priestess of Astro Boy.
