Kai is one of the three, later six main protagonists in The Hollow along with his friends Adam and Mira. He has the superpower of pyrokinesis and is skilled in the field of engineering. He and Vanessa are the youngest main characters. Physical Appearance Kai is a scrawny, pale-skinned little teenage boy with reddish-brown hair and black eyes. He has a thin neck and thick eyebrows. He wears a white shirt with mid-length navy blue sleeves and a blue zero on the back. He also wears light blue jeans and brown boots. Kai's real-life form is very similar to his animated counterpart; they have the same physique and clothing. Personality Kai is generally portrayed as an immature and socially awkward character that others often find odd or annoying. He is impulsive and doesn't usually think before acting, which either results in him hurting himself, or causing nuisance or trouble to those around him. Kai was also shown to be insecure about his value to his team, especially after Adam and Mira discovered their powers, though he seems to have gotten over it after discovering his pyrokinesis. Despite being more of a comic relief character, Kai proved himself to be very useful to his friends and has shown bravery numerous times. Kai occasionally says weird things or misuses terms, which, combined with his sometimes poor decisions can make him seem rather unintelligent. This, however, is not the case, and Kai showed that he's quite crafty. Unfortunately, he can be very gullible, which is a trait Vanessa took advantage of in season 1. In the earliest episodes, Kai was more selfish and almost left his friends on a few occasions, but the more they spent time together, the more Kai became caring. He even showed compassion, as can be seen when he supported Vanessa and even defended her in front of the rest of the cast. History Kai and his friends, Adam and Mira, entered a competition for a virtual reality game called The Hollow. Like his friends, Kai has no memories of the real world when he wakes up inside the game. Kai is a friend of Mira's younger brother and was only on the team because Reeve left, meaning that he was filling an opening. Throughout the Series In "The Room," Adam, Kai and Mira wake up in a room with no memories of who they are. The only items with them are small slips of paper with their names on them and a typewriter. To escape, they use the typewriter to type "help", which causes four bricks to move forward and act as ledges leading to a vent. As the room begins filling up with green smoke, they make their way up to and through the vent, eventually winding up at an exit that leads to a forest. Mira discovers that she was able to translate an owl's hoots. After escaping the underground bunker, the trio continue to walk through the forest, ending up at an electrified fence. They search for a switch to deactivate it and soon find an abandoned cabin. Inside, there are science equipment, a satchel they take, and three cages seemingly torn apart by their ex-captives. Shortly after, they encounter three "Devil Dogs" that begin to chase them. Running towards the fence, they see the deactivation switch for the fence and use keys found in the satchel to make their escape. Not far from the fenced area, they are trapped at the edge of a cliff with the creatures quickly digging their way under the fence. The three meet someone who they call the "Weird Guy". After they ask for help with a "please", he creates a portal in which they fall through. On the other side, just before passing out, Adam blearily sees two figures speaking in a foreign language while looking down at the trio. In "The Desert," the trio wake up in a town of anthropomorphic bulls. Mira attempts to talk to them, being able to understand them, but they call her a witch. They are tied in a large chamber belonging to a giant bull named Toros. They eventually escape and head down the tunnels under the chamber. Seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, against Kai's warnings and cautiousness, they introduce themselves to an overly cheery woman they meet at the end. She offers them food, but after a mention of not trusting her, she transforms into a soul-eating witch. The trio knock her out but another witch comes along, and attacks them. After fighting off a third witch, they trek through the desert, and become dehydrated and tired. Eventually three figures on horses come and pick them up. In "Apocalypse," the three figures bring the trio to a ship crash site. Adam identifies them as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse; Plague, Famine, War, and Death. They find out that Death's horse is really sick, and after being fed, Mira is able to understand the horse. To heal him, they call for the Weird Guy and he teleports Mira back to the lab in the forest to get medicine. She narrowly escapes the Devil Dogs, and comes back with a vial. Meanwhile, Kai is able to fix up a ship and gets it to work. After healing Death's horse, they take off in the ship. After making it above the water, Adam accidentally kicks something and the ship begins plummeting into the water. They eject their seats, but Mira's seat belt is stuck. She continues to sink down as she loses consciousness. Adam and Kai are unable to swim far enough, and are forced to go to the surface. Kai blames Adam and angrily leaves. At the end of the episode, Mira is seen lodged against a rock, opening her eyes. In "The Lighthouse," Adam theorizes that they are in a parallel universe. He also learns more about his strength when he accidentally pushes Kai. During their argument, Mira arrives. She explains that she is able to breathe underwater and can swim like a mermaid. The trio then continue walking and see a lighthouse. They then find out that it is inhabited by a cyclops. In hopes of using the lighthouse to signal for help, they must find a new light bulb as the one there is broken. With Mira's swimming skill and the help of an octopus, they are able to retrieve a new light bulb from an abandoned submarine. When they fix the lighthouse's light, they signal SOS, but only the Weird Guy shows up. Kai asks for help, despite Adam and Mira's protests. They are teleported into the sky and land on a talking tree. The tree tells them about how she lost her arm (a branch) and the trio go after the one who stole it, Akuma. Akuma had turned the arm into a powerful, dangerous weapon called the Ishibo. Upon arriving in his floating temple, the doors and windows close, locking them in and making everything go dark. In "Ishibo," the trio is captured by Akuma, and Adam winds up having to fight their best warrior. Adam, with incredible strength, defeats the warrior, and Akuma's minions run away in terror. Akuma, with the Ishibo, challenges Adam in a fight. Adam barely wins as Akuma drops the Ishibo and falls off the floating piece of land. Just when Adam reaches to pick up the Ishibo, three other super-powered teens appear. They take the Ishibo and leave using their superpowers: either speed, flight, or telekinesis. After the strange teens' departure, Akuma's minions come stampeding back. They call for help, and the Weird Guy teleports them to a spaceship. They soon find out that the ship was taken over by an alien, but also has a teleporter they could use. They teleport themselves and appear in a run-down theme park inhabited by Benjamin and Benjamini, who love having fun. Kai fixes one of their rides, and tries it out with Benjamini, while Adam and Mira learn that the three other kids also came by the theme park. Suddenly, the ride catches on fire, and begins collapsing. In "Undead," Kai discovers his pyrokinetic abilities, using them to save himself and Benjimini. The friends, trying to locate the other three kids, wander in a spooky town and are reacquainted with them. Vanessa claims the Weird Guy stole the Ishibo and banished them to the town. Forming an uneasy truce, Vanessa uses her feminine wiles to take advantage of Kai's obvious infatuation with her. Almost falling to death while Vanessa tried to fly Kai towards the moon, Adam and Mira fall into a pit after Kai unintentionally sets of a gravestone mechanism during a zombie invasion. Vanessa tries to convince Kai to join her team, while Adam and Mira encounter a mysterious old man. In "The Riddle," separated from Kai and the others, Mira and Adam found an old man underground and must solve his riddle. When Adam notice's Dave glitch, he theorizes that they are all in a virtual world. Disbelieving this, Mira kisses Adam, and he kindly, yet awkwardly, rejects her affections. Finding the Ironwood Tree again, she tosses them a great distance to the Northern Tundra. After Mira save's a polar bear's cub from drowning under the ice, the bear's escort them to the Ice Palace. Warning them it isn't safe, Adam and Mira venture inside the palace, and finds Kai, Vanessa, Reeve, and Skeet frozen in ice. Kai thaws himself out with his powers of fire, and the three of them battle an ice monster. In "Ice," after battling an ice monster, Adam, Kai and Mira weigh their choice to help the other kids. Against Adam's warnings, Kai thaws out the other three kids, and Reeve uses his telekinetic powers to attack Adam from behind with the Ishibo. After they betray them, Mira and Kai, along with a seriously wounded Adam, end up stranded on a small iceberg. Drifting out into the middle of the sea, Mira takes Adam to find land, leaving Kai on the thawing iceberg. When a trio of sharks spot Kai, Mira arrives on the back of whale and rescues him. The three make it to dry land, and Mira and Kai see the whale glitch. Afterwards, the orbital shuttle from space comes crashing on the beach and Adam's theory that they are in a virtual reality game is confirmed by the Weird Guy who warns them that the glitches they have seen are a sign that the game's code is corrupted and is on the verge of crashing, and that they must quickly escape the game. In "Cocoon," Mira, Kai, and Adam are taken hostage by a tribe of hybrid spider-people. Racing against the clock, Mira and Kai try to save Adam from dying. Kai offers to replace the Spider Leader's lost limbs in exchange for assistance. The Spider Leader uses his venom to heal Adam and the trio escape into the wilderness. The three friends encounter their rival team, and manage to retrieve the Ishibo back. In "Colrath," as the digital world around them crashes, Adam, Mira and Kai find and dodge their old enemies in order to get the Ishibo and return it to the tree. After returning the Ishibo to the Iron Tree, she enables them to enter a region where they must fight a dragon. After the dragon's defeat, they enter a portal in the building that was being guarded by the dragon. Once through the portal, they wind up in the same room they started in, except for the fact that there was a green button. They press it, and exit the game, waking up in a VR tournament where they are greeted by the Weird Guy (revealed to be the show's host) and cheered by the live audience for winning the game, "The Hollow." However, as the rival team wakes up, Kai notices the eye of one of them slightly glitching. In "Home," Kai looks in the mirror and screams upon seeing himself as digital. His butler, Davis, comes in with his ringing phone, but Kai just starts screaming again. After he finishes screaming, Davis offers him some tea to relax. He declines and says he just wants answers. He asks if he's dead or it's a dream. Davis doesn't know what The Hollow is, even though he had previously always told Kai he played too much. Davis easily answers his questions and then tells him he missed a call from Mira. He calls Mira back, but she doesn't answer because she's riding her scooter through the rain. Kai sticks his head out the window into the rain. When he pulls back in, Davis quickly cleans him up just as the weather clears up as quickly as it started. He decides he needs to find Adam and Mira. He asks Davis to prepare his ride and bring him the tea. Kai rides an electric unicycle around town and realizes everything's the same, but digital. As he attempts to enter a donut shop, he runs into Gretchen Aguilar and apologizes to her. He knows her because she's famous for the fastest victory in the history of The Hollow. She says he has the wrong Gretchen and leaves. It starts to storm again for a minute, before stopping again. Kai thinks he's in a dream and enters the donut shop. As he leaves the shop, he notices Mira riding past and calls out to her. She goes back to him and they both note the weird things happening. Just then, Adam comes around a corner, still running from the bullies. Mira follows them on the scooter and has Adam get on. Kai follows them on his unicycle. Kai throws the box of donuts behind him and the bullies stop to fight over them. Kai suggests going to his place to make a plan. Adam and Mira are awed by his large house, including a helicopter and a statue of himself. He leads them to a gazebo, where Davis brings them tea. They take a moment to look at Kai's neighbor Kevin, who lives in a bubble, before talking about what's going on in the world. They have all their memories until they hit the button and jumped in the portal, then nothing until they woke up at home. Mira thinks something's gone wrong. No one in that world knows anything about The Hollow. That would make sense inside The Hollow, but his parents knew things about his only his real parents would know, something that wouldn't happen in The Hollow. Kai thinks they're still in the game, in a level two. Adam wonders if that's why he saw the bullies just as they remembered them, with the same fear. Then he got away with his powers. Kai is surprised to learn they still have their powers and immediately tests them out, burning a hole in the bush Davis was trimming. They think the world has brought their fears to life: Adam's bullies, Mira's doll that came from an aunt, but Kai claims nothing has scared him. They decide they need to find Weirdy. Then they hear a bird calling. It's Mabel, the giant chicken who terrorized Kai's nightmares. Mabel pecks the head off Kai's statue and follows them around the yard and then through the neighborhood. They hide in a bush to escape her and then enter a building and talk about how their fears have come to life. They wonder why this has happened. Mabel then breaks through the ceiling. Mira tries to reason with her and learns Mabel is just following orders. And she hates Kai. They run away again and have to dodge lightning strikes as Mabel follows them. Adam sees his bullies approaching from one side as Mabel and the doll block the other two ways. In "Hollow Games," The fears get closer until a large lightning strike knocks them all to the ground. They quickly get back up and continue their taunting. Mira stands up to Adam's bullies for him, while Adam takes on Mabel and Kai goes after the doll. They struggle with that plan and Adam ends up pinned under Mabel's foot. Kai jumps to his rescue, throwing fire at Mabel and burning her neck. She then charges Mabel and he ignites his fists, saying he's not afraid of her. As he says this, she disintegrates. Mira then faces the doll herself, saying it's not real. Adam finally tells the bullies he doesn't care what they think of him. With that solved, they decide to get out of the storm only for it to clear. In Kai's room, Kai maintains his belief they're in a dream. Adam starts looking for clues on how to beat the game. Kai apologizes for getting in between them in the game, but they tell him they're not dating and Adam is gay. Mira suddenly remembers that she kissed Adam and apologizes to him. They wonder if the glitch caused this. Kai tries calling Weirdy for help, but gets no response, making him believe he's right that it's a dream. Adam just thinks the rules are different for a new level. Mira wants to go to the studio to look for Weirdy, but opens the door to find Davis, who says it's late and Kai's friends should go home. They reluctantly leave, agreeing to meeting at the donut shop at 8 AM. In the morning, Adam waits outside the donut shop, angry. Kai comes up to him, upset because it's not a dream. Kai's new theory is that it's aliens. They leave to go find Mira. They go to Mira's house and talk to Miles. They ask him to get Mira, but learn from one of her dads that she said she was staying over at Adam's house. Adam tries to cover for Mira. Miles is surprised to learn Kai's hanging out with Mira. Adam and Kai leave and head toward Hollow Games Studio, which is where Adam thinks she is. They try to go inside, but a security guard stops them. She doesn't know what The Hollow is either and tells them they're trespassing. Kai starts a fire to distract the guard while they find a way in. They find Mira's scooter propped up against a wall. Inside, they notice their picture missing from the wall of tournament winners. They deduce that the tournament hasn't ended yet. They enter the studio, which is empty. Adam finds a file cabinet in a ransacked room. While he and Kai are in there, the room shakes and things fall. They hear static noises and start to walk toward the server room when floating robots see them. Kai uses his powers to destroy them, but another set finds them quickly. They hide in a room and barricade the door, but they cut through. Kai notices a portal and wants to go through it before the robots get through the door. They jump through together. In "The Return," Kai and Adam land after falling thorough the portal. They spot Colrath's castle, so Kai proposes finding Mira and winning the game. Adam calls out for help, but Weirdy doesn't appear, frustrating him. Adam wonders why this has happened, but Kai just wants to play the game. They reach the castle and realize it's not Colrath's. Adam calls out to Mira, but gets no response. Kai tries to open the castle doors, but only succeeds in breaking some rock off it. They enter the castle and Kai uses fire to light their way. An unseen force taunts them and then a gnome appears. They placate her with some of Kai's blood and ask her about Mira. She gives them a clue to look for water without fish before disappearing. Kai finds some puddles, but they aren't portals. Kai asks why they asked him to be on their team in the first place. Adam reveals that they had an opening because Reeve had been on their team, but they couldn't get along. Kai then spots a well and realizes it's the answer to their riddle. They both jump inside and the current takes them out to a waterfall. They end up washed up on a beach. When they wake up, they find themselves surrounded by talking mutant birds. Their conversation is interrupted when a volcano erupts. They think a nearby figure tied to a pole with a mask on is Mira, but it turns out to be Skeet instead. Cherufe breaks out of the volcano and comes to them. Adam works to free Skeet as Kai throws fire at Cherufe unsuccessfully. Once Skeet is free, they run away. Skeet runs at super speed to get away, leaning Adam and Kai to fend for themselves. Kai finds a boat and Skeet runs ahead and starts paddling it out. They realize Cherufe turns to stone when he hits the water. Adam starts rowing them and asks Skeet about how he ended up there. His story is similar to theirs. He thinks Adam and Mira kicked Reeve off their team, but Adam says he left on his own. Adam rows into the nighttime. Skeet tells him he's worried about Mira, too, because they've known each other since preschool. They realize they're being pulled into something and Adam can't paddle hard enough to keep them out. They spot another team, also fleeing from danger. One team member uses a sonic scream to drive their enemy away, but gets zapped when she tries to do it to another. They spot Weirdy and call out to him, but he doesn't hear them. Kai, Adam, and Skeet all abandon the boat as it approaches the reactors. Weirdy tells the two remaining team members they they've lost because their teammate was zapped. He makes them both disappear before disappearing himself. Adam finds their satchel, which had medicine and a map, but the map starts erasing when they look at it. Skeet suggests they just need to lose the game on purpose in order to go home, but Adam and Kai don't want to. Skeet tries to sacrifice himself, but is stopped by Adam, who pulls him to safety. The craft attacking them lands and several robots exit and start chasing them. They are delighted to hear Mira calling to them, but then the robots find them and fire their weapons. In "Puzzled," Kai tries to create a fire wall to keep the robots back, but they just walk through it. Kai, Adam, and Skeet then run to the doorway where they see Mira and fall through it, into a room where there are objects floating in the sky. The team is happy to be reunited. Mira shows them they can walk down the sides of the walls and they follow her through a maze of rooms. Still thinking losing is the solution, Skeet jumps off a ledge, but is quickly thrown back onto solid ground. Skeet promises not to try that again and they set off to find The Weird Guy. They reach the place where Mira stopped and figure out the puzzle she couldn't solve. The path forward leads to a floating castle, which is empty except a note that says wrong turn. The ground beneath them crumbles and Kai has to rescue Skeet to keep him from continuing to drop. They're set up with a new puzzle to solve, a giant cube they must move to make the Hollow Games logo before the tower beneath them crumbles. They go through a portal on the cube just as the tower collapses. They end up in a game show hosted by Akuma, asking them to choose a portal. Kai impulsively chooses door one. After Akuma reveals door two, Mira realizes they have better odds if they switch to door three. Behind that door is Katsuro. They race to door one as Katsuro comes thorough door three, but find it locked. Adam fights Katsuro and knocks him out. They then jump through a portal. As they try to figure out where to go, they remember they have a map. They're surprised to find it blank. Adam thinks they're not players in the game and says they need to find The Weird Guy. They see a flashing light in the distance and decide to go there. On the way, Adam slips in some slime. Skeet jumps on the slime and slides along the path with the others following him. When they stop, they realize a hill has moved. It continues to move closer to the and they learn it's a large snail, the source of the slime. They fight the snail and Skeet is injured. He runs away when a man calls out to him and they give Skeet the medicine. It doesn't work and they realize Skeet has lost. He doesn't pixelate and Mira starts crying. In "Alchemy," they have buried Skeet. They talk about his death and try to reassure Mira as they walk. They reach Chateau Carcolh, where lights are flashing from the upstairs. Kai knocks on the door and the snail jumps off the roof down toward them. As he grabs them, a man opens the door and tells the snail to let them go. The man invites them inside for a meal and they agree. As they walk inside, the man grabs a hair off Adam's head, which he tucks into a paper. Inside, he introduces himself as Jules Voulcan and shows off a few of his inventions. He shows them to bedrooms, where he has clothes for them. Once they're dressed, they sit down to dinner, where he takes one of Kai's hairs from the cap he's wearing and one of Mira's directly from her head. Adam asks Jules about Weirdy, but he says they'll talk later. They're surprised to see Reeve and Vanessa serving their meal, but acting as robots. Adam chases Jules as Kai and Mira try to wake Vanessa and Reeve up. Adam finds a room with a bunch of boxes on the wall with keys in them. He tries to turn the key that says Reeve, but gets shocked. Adam finds Jules, who says he'll explain everything. He pushes a button, causing Vanessa and Reeve to levitate and start to fight Mira and Kai. Mira's able to reverse the spell that has turned animals to stone and they help subdue Vanessa. They run away and find Adam, but he attacks them. Kai sees Jules and knocks into him, making him drop a vial of green liquid labelled Adam. It shatters on the floor and breaks the spell. They subdue Jules, but end up getting attacked by Louie. They barricade themselves in the room and Kai turns Reeve's key with difficult, retrieving the bottle and shattering it. Then he looks for Vanessa. He can't find her key, so he uses a pickle fork to open her box and shatter the vial. Adam then uses salt to force Louie to retract. They go back to the dining room and find Reeve and Vanessa missing. They attack the trio again, but Adam, Kai, and Mira explain what happened. The same thing happened to them. Mira tells them Skeet's dead. They realize Louie is under a spell and they need to break it. Jules wakes up and puts Vanessa and Reeve under another spell, forcing Mira to go by herself. She's trapped by Louie, but Adam and Kai come to her aid. Jules attacks Vanessa and Reeve, then the others. Just as Louie is ready to eat them, Reeve breaks the vial, releasing Louie from his spell. Louie grabs Jules and takes him into the woods. Adam finds a poster advertising Weirdy at a jazz club. In "Dead End," the five have decided to stick together. They argue about where to go to find the club until Mira finds a metro stop. They board the subway train, where they are haunted by apparitions lining the trains. They realize they died in a metro crash. They look for ways to stop the train. Kai gets help from Vanessa and they're able to stop the train. The ghosts leave the train, finally freed. The group then exits the station and they find the jazz club. They run into another trio who are unaware they're in a game. They tell the trio they just have to finish the game, but the other trio starts to fight them. Kai is surprised to find that one of the players also has fire powers, which shouldn't be allowed. One of the other players takes the key from around Adam's neck and they take it with them as they leave. Vanessa starts to apologize, but before she can say why, Kai hears music form inside. They enter to find that everyone is a skeleton. Death is the bartender, but doesn't remember them. Mira shows him the poster and he tells them the show is starting soon. Weirdy takes the stage. They try to approach him, but are stopped and he starts to perform. They make several attempts to get to him, but are thwarted each time. Finally, Weirdy notices them and says they don't belong there. He then sends them through a portal. They land on a platform. Mira is in the center and the other four are each on a corner. They are balanced precariously. Reeve and Adam argue over what to do and Mira starts to panic. In "Unbalanced," Adam and Reeve quickly start to argue over who should make a decision about what to do. Vanessa starts to panic over their arguing and flies off. Kai follows her. Back on the platform, Mira decides to leave them to their fight. They end up tipping the platform and all three of them fall off. Vanessa catches Mira, but Reeve and Adam fall into water. Reeve pulls Adam out after finding him face down in the water. They end up surrounded by a sea monster, who jumps out of the water and eats him entierly and alive along with his both female companions. A ship then comes by, telling Reeve to swim to them. The monster swims to an underground cave, where she regurgitates Mira, Vanessa and him. Mira tells Kai that the monster only saved them from her stomach to eat them back at midnight (if not before). In the cave, the notice something carved into the rock and Mira thinks it might be a puzzle to solve. Kai and Mira notice that something seems to be wrong with Vanessa, but she brushes off their concerns. She says she's trying to be part of their team. When Tursas suddenly wakes and comes closer to them staring at them greedily, he and his both female companions get a common fright, but instead of chewing them like little treats, as she intends to do, she just dives into the water. Mira follows Tursas. Once she's gone, Vanessa confesses she knew it was a game from the start, but Kai doesn't believe her. She then says they're stuck in The Hollow because of her. In "Fang," Kai questions what Vanessa meant with what she said and she admits that she cheated in the first game. She wore special contact lenses that blocked the memory inhibiters, so she remembered everything, including the fact that it was a game. She thinks the lens caused the glitch. That's why she blames herself. Kai says he can keep it between them if she wants, but he encourages her to be honest with the others. With the group reunited, Kai covers for Vanessa. Mira then takes Tursas' fang and puts it into the empty spot. Then she and Adam pull both at the same time, but nothing happens. Vanessa prepares to confess, but just then, a cave opens up and they enter. They emerge from the base of a tree. They notice some winged creatures carrying what looks like Weirdy's scarf. They chase the winged creatures until they're stopped by a troll. Kai tries to fly over him, but is stopped. The troll wants a goat. Adam wants to get him one, but Mira is opposed. They decide to make a fake goat with veggies and bring it to the troll. He accepts it and says it's for Malthezor, who pops up out of the water, knocks the goat off into the water, and eats the troll. They are then able to cross the bridge and follow the winged creatures. Vanessa flies and sees the winged creatures taunting Weirdy up ahead. They run to Weirdy and ask him for answers. He prepares to send them away again, but they manage to get his scarf back and leverage it to get answers. He tries to send them through a portal anyway, but Mira stops him by revealing she knows his real name, proving they're real. He confesses that the company has made digital clones of all the players, using all the data in their brains to make exact digital replicas of their lives. Something must have gone wrong to make them retain their memories. He assures them Skeet is fine and living his life like normal. He admits that he doesn't know how to help them. Vanessa thinks she might know. He would have to take Hollow Life offline. He tells them he'll try, but they need to survive the game. The other team in the game is approaching the final level and if they finish, it'll end the game and they'll disappear. Weirdy disappears, leaving them to figure out how to survive the game. They remember how well the other team worked together just a large explosion in the distance reveals that the other team learned how to use the weapon. In "Fire," Kai and Vanessa watch as the current team clear a path toward victory. Kai tries to convince Vanessa to come clean to the others, but she doesn't believe they could forgive her if they knew. Once the group is back together, Vanessa confesses the truth to the others, who don't take the news as well as Kai. Vanessa goes off on her own as they continue on the path. They easily face Rumpelstiltskin and then start to wonder where Vanessa is. They go to look for her and find their surroundings engulfed in green fire. Kai learns he has no control over the green flames, so they work to lead the animals out. Mira becomes trapped with the three little pigs, while Adam and Reeve work together to redirect the river to put out the fire. This makes Reeve and Adam realize they valued the world they're in, which is why they fought to save it. As they walk, Weirdy comes to them and tells them there's been trouble taking "Hollow Life" offline. He also tells them the game team has made it to the final level. He tells them to keep the team from winning until he can fix it. He also tells them Vanessa went with the game team and she's slowing them down. In "Race," Kai, Mira, Adam, and Reeve enter the final level. Kai tries to call out to Vanessa, but Mira quiets him, reminding him the other players are there, too. They come across a large pyramid and Kai finds what looks like a door, which has the same design as the key the team took from Adam. Adam and Kai try to open it, but then give up. Just as they do, the door opens and a monkey in an elevator asks if they're going down. They enter the elevator, where they hear Weirdy say he's started the transfer, but he needs more time. They need to hold off the other team a little longer. They can't win, but they also can't lose because either way will end the game. They approach a man at a desk, who quizzes them on their past quests before giving them a key. Just then, the other team bursts through the wall in a car before rushing back out. They climb into their own car and drive after the game team. They catch up, but the game team attacks them and they end up flipped over. Weirdy comes over the radio to tell them to hurry up because he needs more time. They see some motorcyclists and think that might help slow the game team down. They're able to right the car and Mira knocks one of the creatures of a motorcyclist and climbs on herself. She uses that to lure them off a cliff, then has Reeve pull her back into the car. Then they notice the game team has almost reached the end. Adam explains to the game team what they've been through and asks them to wait so they can be saved. Nisha refuses to believe them and pulls the weapon on them. Just then, the waste pile starts to collapse and then a monster, Olym, emerges from the rubble. Nisha fires at him, but it doesn't work. Mira, Kai, Adam, and Reeve work to keep the game team from winning the boss battle. When Iris falls off a cliff, Vanessa catches her and returns her to safety. Nisha fires again and hits Olym, but it doesn't defeat him. Mira stops her from firing it again and tosses the weapon to Vanessa. The team continues to battle not letting them beat Olym with not letting them lose. They realize that the weapon fits into Olym's back, which they believe is the way to win. Reeve tries to stop Iris from putting it in, but he's not strong enough and she puts it in, which results in a large explosion. They all hide behind Iris, who pulls a large sheet to block the blast. The game team takes off for the portal and the others realize chasing the game team is futile. Just then, Weirdy appears on a television screen to tell them he's ready to take the game offline, but they have to enter a portal. Vanessa and Kai carry Reeve and they race to get to their portal before the game team gets to theirs. They end up jumping through at the same time. When they wake up, they realize they're home. Later, the team gathers at Mira's house for a cookout. Vanessa is missing Skeet, but Kai consoles her that he real Skeet is with the real Vanessa. They toast to their new lives. Relationships Adam Kai and Adam are close friends and teammates. At first, their relationship is somewhat tense. Kai feels intimidated by Adam, and his insecurities frequently lead him to disagree with or belittle Adam, which often causes arguments. Despite his insecurities, Kai usually turns to Adam for safety when he feels most frightened. A the end of "Apocalypse," Kai blames Adam for Mira's death and tries to separate from him permanently. He recants this when he and Adam discover Mira is alive and apologizes for blaming him. Kai is jealous of Adam's powers until he discovers his own in "Ishibo." This discovery allows for a healthier dynamic between the two that isn't permeated by jealousy and competition. In "Ice," Reeve attacks Adam, leaving him comatose and hypothermic on the brink of death. From this point forward, it is clear that Kai cares about Adam very deeply. In the following episode, Kai builds a pair of prosthetic legs for the leader of the mutant spiders, and in return, the leader heals Adam and Kai saves Adam's life. In "Home," Kai invites his teammates to his house, and they see that he is exceedingly rich. He expresses his gratitude to them for treating him normally and accepting him into their team. Mira Kai and Mira are friends and teammates. Kai develops a crush on Mira very quickly after meeting her, but her feelings are never reciprocated. Nevertheless, they always remain solid friends. In "Apocalypse" Kai is bereaved by Mira's apparent death, and when he sees her again in the following episode, he gives her an awkwardly long hug. In "Cocoon," while they are imprisoned in the Spider Village separated from Adam, who is dying, Mira and Kai make a promise that they will always have each other. They remain friends in Season 2. Before the events of The Hollow, Mira's brother Miles was more Kai's friend than she was. She is a possible love interest for the future Vanessa In "Undead," Kai is instantly infatuated with Vanessa upon meeting her. She notices this and takes advantage of it. She manipulates him in the hopes that he will help her team win the game. Kai does not realize she is using him until she explicitly tells him and drops him from a great height in "Ice." This marks the end of his crush on her. In Season 2, he is angry with her until she expresses regret for her past actions. Kai forgives her, and they continue as friends. He encourages her to confess her mistakes to their other friends and defends her to them in her absence. Reeve Kai and Reeve have a contentious relationship in Season 1. When Vanessa invites Kai to join her team, Reeve opposes the idea, and Kai agrees to it mostly to spite him. In "The Riddle," Kai and Reeve share a tense disagreement about which of them would win in a fight, and Reeve tries to crush him with a large cactus. Skeet Despite being on the rival team, Skeet genuinely likes Kai for his sense of humor. Skeet is also very impressed by Kai's powers of pyrokinesis. The two fight each other in the Battle for the Ishibo. Davis Davis is Kai's family butler. In "Home," it is implied that Kai's parents are neglectful and that Davis takes a parental role for Kai in their absence. Powers and Abilities Powers Pyrokinesis: Kai can generate and manipulate heat and flame. The fires he generates begin as flames emanating from his own body. Once his flames ignite, he controls their size, shape, and intensity with great precision and can mentally manipulate his fire's movements. His flames are hot enough to burn zombies to ash.[2] Kai can also manipulate existing flames, dousing them, or controlling their movements. With concentration, he can generate heat without open flames.[2] Fire/Heat Immunity: Kai is able to withstand the effects of his own flames and other sources of extreme heat without harm. For example in "The Room," he touches an electric fence with his bare hands and is left unscathed. Pyrokinetic Flight: After much practice, Kai learns to propel himself through the air using fire in a manner similar to a rocket. He uses this as a limited approximation of flight for extended periods of time. While his top flight speed is unknown, he is fast enough to keep out of Colrath's grasp.[3] Abilities Engineering Knowledge: Kai is a technical wiz and has extensive knowledge of advanced engineering. He uses this knowledge to repair a crashed spaceship with spare parts in the scrapyard,[4] repair a teleporter in space[5], and craft two prosthetic mutant spider legs out of wood and vines.[6] Weaknesses Fire Extinguishing: Kai’s flame can be extinguished by smothering materials, such as water, slime, and spider silk. His powers of pyrokinesis are also diminished when his hands are too wet.[7] Green Flames: Kai has no effect on the green flames caused by Voulcan's weapon. Motion Sickness: Kai suffers from a substantial case of motion sickness.[8][9] Trivia Kai was confirmed to be 14 years old by Josh Mepham on Twitter.[1] In Season 1, Kai is the last player to discover his superpower.
