Heidern, seeing through the ruse, agrees and also takes the rest of the team off duty. During their off time, Ralf enlists them into the King of Fighters tournament to keep them in shape and to rehabilitate the despondent Leona, while they investigate Geese Howard's suspicious involvement in the KOF '96 tournament.

Due to this year's tournament now having Teams of 4 instead of 3, they must enter with a fourth member. Heidern is unable to join due to him dealing with espionage operations at that time, so make up the fourth member, Heidern promotes Whip, a young soldier from the Axe Platoon of the Ikari Warriors, as a member of the Ikari Warriors Team. Ralf, who knows of her whipping skills, initially mistakes her name to be Whippy (, lit. "Whip Girl"). Since then, he continues to call her this as an affectionate nickname.
