Whip's past is as shrouded in mystery as the young woman herself. She only
remembers that she was looking for her brother, and the only name in her mind
was NESTS, so that is where she heads to. She has always worked for the NESTS
cartel as an assassin, expert in the use of firearms, and of course, her weapon
of choice ever since she began her life of fighting: her whip, Uddodou. Whip,
actually named Muchiko, never learned to do anything else, and it becomes
troublesome for her. However, during her stance in the cartel, she meets a
troubled young man, who at the same time, seems to act nicely around Whip: he
called himself only Krizalid.
Whip is confessed that Krizalid is the most advanced Kyo Kusanagi clone to date, and that he is destined to make the NESTS cartel the reigning order of the world. However, Whip just can't imagine Krizalid as a world destroyer. They passed a lot of time together, up until the point that Krizalid considered her to be just like a sister. Whip knows the truth, but refuses to shatter the precious dream of Krizalid. Soon enough, Krizalid is doned with his battle suit, and he begins to change for the worst. During that period of time is when Whip finds out a shocking truth about Krizalid...and her lost brother. Soon enough, Krizalid becomes obssessed in dominating the world, and pays little to no attention to Whip's warnings. Seeing how his dear friend had become mad of power, Whip realizes she has nothing to do in the NESTS cartel anymore. She leaves one night, and wanders around for awhile, before she hears about a mercenary agency named Ikari Warriors. Whip goes to the main Ikari base, and reports to commander Heidern. She would like to recruit herself in the Ikari Warriors. After seeing a display of her skills, Heidern deems her worthy of such honor, and soon enough, Whip raises her rank up to where few had reached before.... Whip is introduced to the main members of the Ikari Warriors: lieutenant Ralf, field leader. Clark, most important man. And Leona, another rookie in the Ikari lines. Whip and Leona soon find a lot in common. Both having personal conflicts that they don't want to share with anyone but themselves. They also were haunted by ghosts of the past. But in order to resolve their problems, they should first try to depend on others. Whip gets to go along with the unit quite well, as Heidern assigns Whip her first important mission: investigate the evil host of the next King of Fighters tournament. Somehow, Whip knew what was coming for them. The familiar settings brings back some memories to Whip. She can't believe how much her friend has changed, and much less trying to activate the Kyo clones worldwide. Whip slowly guides her companions to the underground base, hoping Krizalid would reconsider sooner or later. As they near the base, Whip contacts Heidern, and summons the extermination squad. However, as soon as she does so, the whole base begins to crumble down. Whip urges her partners to flee as soon as possible. Leona vida for Whip to come with them. But Whip's mind is decided: she would face her past no matter what! Whip slowly enters the main facility. Among the havoc, Whip sees a body underneath a rock in agony. It was Krizalid, severly battered up. Krizalid calls out for his sister, but Whip demands him to stop calling her that. All his past memories were just infused to him by the NESTS cartel, and that he was nothing more than an advanced clone of K', the ultimate Kyo clone. Krizalid curses his destiny, as Whip bids him farewell for the last time. "Thanks for the good memories", Whip silently whispers as she exits the base. Outside, Whip is awaited by her commander and by her friends. Heidern demands an explanation. Whip simply salutes, and says she had to say goodbye to an old friend. Having said that, tears freely flow out of Whip's eyes. She knows Krizalid would be happier whereever he would be.... But Whip has finally found her desired answer to her prayers: since Krizalid was K's clone, then K' must be her brother! The memories of K' were implanted into Krizalid's mind, so it must be true. Filled with joy, Whip has dedicated herself to find K' on her own, but since K' was a fugitive, the Ikari Warriors had set a manhunt the likes that were never seen before. Worried for her brother and for the future actions of NESTS, Whip is the most decided member of the Ikari Warriors squad to enter the next King of Fighters tournament. But before anything else, Whip records a video, as if foretelling the outcome of this competition.... Growing concerned about her brother's fate, Whip arrives at Southtown, where the final battle (and surely, the NESTS cartel) is located. Whip scouts the area, to no avail. Suddenly, she receives orders from Ralf to hurry over to an abandoned factory in the industrial zone of Southtown, since he has lost contact with commander Heidern. While Leona, Ralf, and Clark go to assist Heidern, Whip takes an alternate route. After cruising a dark room, Whip finds a battered man on the ground, with a small, grey box. Whip is certain she has met him before, and it is true: it was Zero, one of the main NESTS agents. Zero opens the box to reveal an optic disk, knowing that Whip would come for it. Whip doesn't fully understand, but she takes the disk with her, knowing that it was the project data for this year. Heidern begins to contact her, but Whip ignores his commands. Whip then hurries from the exploding city.... Once outside, Whip looks over a precious meteor shower in the sky. It has been a long time ever since she saw such an amazing show. Suddenly, a more happier sight appears in front of Whip: it's K', who has managed to barely survive the explosion! He is accompanied by Maxima, but is a bit dumbfounded by the appearance of Whip. Once his memory returns, K' rips his special glove from his hand, and this time, he does not burn out of control. This means that he has controlled his power! K' and Whip smile at each other, but reunion time should wait for a better time. Whip leads her newfound brother and Maxima out of the burning ashes of Southtown...towards a new life. As a way to make up for her absence in K's life, Whip joins K' in his quest for revenge against NESTS. Thanks to the information located in the optic disk that Zero gave her, Whip could locate several NESTS bases around the world. K' was resolved in destroying them all, searching for the missing ends of his past, but when they arrive at these locations, they are mysteriously empty. Almost as if NESTS knew they were coming. Place after place, not even a single NESTS agent could be found. Whip didn't understand what was going on, until they finally stumble upon someone who was also following the footsteps of NESTS: the lethal Hizoku ninja, Lin. Whip and the others manage to catch on Lin, but Whip knows better than anyone else what Lin is after: the traitor to the Hizoku clan, Ron, who also happens to be an active member of the NESTS cartel. Lin is amused that Whip knows so much, and Whip makes him an offer: to team up with them for the next King of Fighters tournament to finally defeat NESTS! Since NESTS was going public during this tournament, it would be their chance to find out what they're planning. Lin accepts, and Whip previews a mortal battle ahead. For the first time ever, Whip enters the tournament without the help of his former partners, the Ikari Warriors, who she now has to fight against. But Whip is confident that she will resolve her brother's missing past if she gets to NESTS...and quite possibly even hers. Whip and the others, after winning several matches, are summoned to attend to the final match, which would take place in a blimp in flight. Whip knows something is definetly wrong, especially when the blimp takes off, gains speed, and sheds its' disguise: a rocket ship! But that's not the least of surprises...a familiar man steps up to challenge Whip and her comrades. It's Zero, but he is actually the real Zero, while the Zero that was defeated last year was merely a clone. Whip is surprised by this scheme, and suddenly, a clone of Krizalid and Ron himself appear by Zero's side! Zero predicts that a carnage will ensue, but they are going to be the victims now! Whip now stands by her brother's side to fend off the attack of Zero.... Whip and Maxima fight to fend off Krizalid and Zero's pet lion, while K' deals with Zero and Lin fulfills his destiny by fighting Ron. Whip and the others are victorious in the end as K' thrusts Zero to the ground. Zero honorably accepts defeat, and as he speaks, the ship begins to shake, and all of a sudden it begins to explode! Confused in the mayhem, Zero hurries them to exit the ship towards their destiny, which might not be nice, but will define a lot of things in their life. Zero bids the strong warriors farewell, as Whip is moved by Zero's honor. Whip hurries with K' and the others to the place where the ship docked...which turns out to be a space station! Whip knows for sure that this must be the main base for NESTS, as she locates a throne room where several ominous figures wait for them.... An eerie voice, claiming to be Igniz, the CEO of NESTS, greets the fighters. Whip notices that there is an old man sitting in the throne, and two tall figures standing next to him: a cloaked blond man and a female secretary. Whip assumes that the old man is Igniz as he keeps talking trash to K' and his comrades. K' gets cocky and talks back some more smack. Igniz claims that he will grant K' back his memories, so K' can fight him at full strength and without a doubt in his mind. In a moment, K' recovers from his amnesia, and the tall blonde man grabs the old man's head, and disintegrates him! He is actually Igniz, who has turned against his own president. Even though he was just a lackey, Whip knows that Igniz has more power than what they can actually see about him...which is proved right soon after when Igniz begins to pummel K' and the others around with incredible ease. Igniz' power is indeed fearful and awesome! It takes help from Kyo and the others to finally aid K' in defeating Igniz after a long, twisted battle for life and death. With his delusional divine dreams crumbled, Igniz slowly walks his way up to where some pillars are located. But before he places his hands on it and sends the space station crumbling down, Igniz claims that even Whip herself is a clone, and now that she has shunned the existence of a human god among them, she would never know her true past! The following events for Whip are totally passed by: she never even paid attention to the space base falling down to sea, and escaping from certain death. Whip regroups with Diana and Kula, former NESTS agents, to find out certain details of NESTS that could lead them to knowing what is left of them, but most of all, Whip wants to know if there is some evidence that can lead her to her own mysterious past. Whip is happy that K' has recovered his memory, but she knows that her own quest for self-encounter has just begun. Whip is quite enigmatic and silent for a young woman of her age, but is comprehensible once you realize that she didn't pass too much with the rest of society. Despite being surrounded by violence and death, Whip secretly desires true happiness one day. It hurts her to see what Krizalid had turned into, for she knows that Krizalid is not truly evil. She finds new hopes in her friends Ralf, Clark, and Leona. A family, that Whip never enjoyed of and keeps looking for, and one that she hopes Krizalid may find one day.
