Mariko is born to Hiromi and Kurama. After promising the dying Hiromi that he will keep their daughter alive, Kurama makes a deal with Chief Kakuzawa for this purpose, but Kurama is kept away. Mariko is locked in a specialized vault due to her powerful vectors. Her only known human contact is through Saito, who proclaims herself to be the little girl's foster mother. The births of Diclonius twins to Number 3's mother confirms that parents are the source of this mutation, and leads Kurama and the younger Kakuzawa to conclude that an original infecting party may exist.
