## Description

Emma is an extremely optimistic, loud, and cheerful girl full of life, whose athletic abilities and extroverted nature contracts directly to Norman's weak physique and Ray's introverted nature. Emma plays the part as an elder sister figure among her younger ones, and always shows unlimited love and care for her fellow foster siblings. When she discovered Conny's corpse and the truth behind Grace Field and Isabella, Emma underwent an emotional change and decided to never cry again and stay steadfast with her beliefs and decisions. Following this event, Emma's desire to escape is fueled by her love for her family; refusing to leave anyone behind since she doesn't want her siblings to suffer the same fate as Conny, showing the compassion, selfless, and altruistic side of her. She is also shown to be very forgiving, as she doesn't think any less of Ray for being the “traitor”, still embraces him as a friend, and sympathizes with him. According to Krone, Emma always thinks of others before herself, so much that she dilutes her chances to save herself by refusing to leave any of her family behind. She is also shown to be impulsive, brave, determined, and dauntless, as she willingly puts herself in harm's way to protect her family and even strangers without any hesitation. Despite being a perfect test-scorer and a very quick learner, Emma is noted to be silly and air-headed. Her goal of saving every orphan from Grace Field House was deemed as impossible, but she still believed she could achieve it, hence being called an airhead by Ray. Additionally, her overt optimism and cheerfulness lead her to sometimes make important decisions by herself, such as cutting off her ear during the escape even though she didn't even mention it in the plan. But she starts relying on her friends and family more after being told to, and comes to learn and pick up knowledge from them. Despite having a very idealistic mindset and somewhat of a naïve personality, Emma is extremely honest, has a very strong will, and refuses to give up no matter what obstacles she faces or how bleak the situation looks. She works hard and succeeds through sheer determination, to the point that Ray notes that defying the impossible is Emma's special trait. Emma cares deeply for her new friends and wants to protect them from being targeted by the demons.

### During the events of The Adventures of Kari & Friends

Emma met Kari and her friends and Digimon when they spotted Emma and Norman looking at a little girl, Conny's corpse. Amy screamed in fear alerting Emma and Norman who told the children to hide as they heard voices. As they hid, Amy began to cry because she was shocked at seeing a child their age as a corpse, Kari attempted to comfort Amy. The demons came and started talking about how they were using children as food. Amy shivered in fear. Gatomon clenched her claws and was prepared to fight if the demons saw and decided to hurt Kari and her friends. Kari and her friends were later shocked to see an human adult supporting the demons. Isabella then heard voices and approached where Kari and her friends were hiding. Emma motioned to Kari and her friends to escape and so they did. Kari and her friends escaped and Kari hugged Amy who was crying because she was scared. Emma and Norman approached the children, noticed their clothing were different from theirs and asked if they were from an orphanage like they were. Kari shook her head no and told Emma that they all had parents. Emma then told Kari that she and her friends were lucky. Kari confronted Emma asking what was going on and why they had seen a child's corpse. Emma told Kari that she wasn't so sure. Norman then chatted with Emma. Emma then turned to Kari and her friends and asked where their families were. Kari told her that their families were in a different world. Kari then introduced herself, her friends, and their Digimon. Emma screamed at seeing the Digimon especially Gatomon whom she called a talking cat. Emma then told Kari and her friends that they would have to live at Grace Field House until their families would come for them. Back at Grace Field House, Emma prepared beds for Kari and her friends. Kari still wanted to know what was going, but Emma didn't answer her. Kari climbed into bed and went to sleep with Gatomon sleeping at the edge to protect her. The next morning, Isabella noticed Kari and her friends and demanded to know what was going on. Emma explained to Isabella that Kari and her friends had families coming for them and remained calm as she talked to her. Isabella then told Kari and her friends that they would have to stay there until their families arrived. Little did they know but the two demons had saw the hiding children and called Isabella telling her that there was an order to ship Kari, Suzie, Ai and Amy out showing that the demons have taken an interest in devouring Kari, Suzie, Ai, and Amy. Emma and her friends overheard and ran to warn Kari and Amy. Kari and Gatomon were training while Amy was hanging out with Suzie and Ai. Isabella appeared and told Kari, Suzie, Ai, and Amy to come with her as their families were waiting for them. Emma and her friends were too late to warn them and followed them. Gatomon, Lopmon, and Impmon were suspicious and secretly followed them. Isabella led Kari, Suzie, Ai, and Amy to the ends of the gate. Kari suddenly realized that their parents were waiting for them, demons were. Kari gave the motion to run and Isabella demanded the children to come back as they couldn't escape their fate. She called to the demons to capture Kari, Suzie, Ai, and Amy, but Angewomon, Antylamon, and Beezlemon came and attacked the demons protecting the children. Emma, Norman, and Ray led Kari, Suzie, Ai, and Amy to safety. Angewomon angrily told the demons that they weren't going to eat her human partner and told them that all four girls had parents and siblings. A demon came at Suzie, but Antylamon swiped her claws at him. Isabella demanded to know what Angewomon, Antylamon, and Beezlemon were and all three chimed that they were Digimon and that they were protectors of Kari and her friends and that they were to protect them until they got home to their families.
