Fiction
Kiss Players
In the battle for Optimus Prime's body, Kayu was the only Kiss Player in the vicinity who was not incapacitated by Marissa Faireborn's clothes-slicing knife skills. Fused with her Autrooper partner, she was able to briefly stun the resistance commando with a Kremzeek bullet in the back.
When Marissa sliced open Prime's trailer to reveal his corpse, however, Kayu's Autrooper went wild. Ejecting the naked, goop-covered and extremely surprised Kiss Player, it rushed to the fallen Autobot commander and initiated a ParasiTech fusion.
What became of the Autrooper when Prime's half-fused body was reformatted immediately thereafter is unknown. Kayu's fate is also so far unknown, although Shao-Shao Li's experience indicates that the E.D.C. does not have a very good retirement plan.
Trivia
- In Japanese, Kayu's name means "porridge".
