Deciding to take care of his partner's son, Marky, Kevin entered the King of Fighters: Maximum Mayhem tournament, as he felt that the one responsible would show up. After initially mistaking Terry Bogard for the murderer, Kevin apologizes to Terry but Marky goes missing. With Terry's help, Kevin found Marky peacefully sleeping.
