History
Karen (as Cure Aqua) had appeared in Kelly's dreams ever since she was a child, usually getting defeated.

Meeting Kelly
At the start of PC5R12, Karen (then known as "the mysterious girl") watched Kelly score many goals, but when Kelly saw her, Karen walked off, and left Kelly wondering.

She is next seen walking in a garden at dusk, where the Cures confront her. When Kelly recognises her, she hugs her straight away, which leaves Karen stunned. When Kelly explained everything, Karen smiles and hugs Kelly back, and looked as if she was about to cry.

However, the six girl were soon attacked by a new villain named Bash, but after the Cures transformed, they were almost defeated! Karen then shouted out words of encouragement to Cure Sapphire, and Cure Sapphire then realised how much Karen cared about her. Using her attack, Cure Sapphire managed to defeat the Kowaina that Bash had summoned. Afterwards, Karen and Kelly had a tearful reunion.
