Meanwhile, Chrissie moves in with her and her dad , but succeeds only in causing further problems in the family. Back at Lavender Lawns, an old lady gives Luke an ancient talisman, which is really the key to a portal in space and time. They find that a group of nuns are hiding an age-old creature, the Gorgon. When Sarah Jane refuses to give the talisman to the nuns, they kidnap Luke and Clyde and take the Gorgon and Maria to Sarah Jane's house where the Gorgon turns her father into stone,Having got what they came for, the nuns and Gorgon left. Luke and Clyde escape from their entrapment via a secret passage. Mr Smith tells Maria and Sarah that Alan is retrievable until 16:00. Luke and Clyde see the Gorgon stumble, but are unable to prevent the talisman beginning the process of joining the Gorgon Homeworld with Earth. The Gorgon - a parasite inside the Abbess - chooses Sarah Jane as its next host. Chatting with Bea reveals that the talisman can revert those turned to stone. Clyde distracts the nuns long enough that Luke grabs the talisman, disconnecting the portal. However, Sarah Jane and both boys are recaptured and locked in another room, though Sarah Jane is soon taken and tied next to the portal. Luke and Clyde escape again and join Sarah Jane just as the Gorgon begins to transfer itself, but Maria arrives and uses a mirror to revert the transfer and turn the Gorgon - and Abbess - to stone, freeing the nuns of mind-control. Maria disconnects the talisman and the portal shuts down forever. The talisman brings her father back to flesh-and-blood and Chrissie leaves, reuniting with Ivan.([[SJA]]: ''[[Eye of the Gorgon]]'') Maria help defeat the Uvodni and discover why children where missing all over the country because the were taken by H2o Scoop at Combat 3000 and she leaves Earth for the very first time and sees Earth on the Uvodni Warship in space with Sarah Jane.([[SJA]]: ''[[Warriors of Kudlak ]]'')
| | After a number of other adventures, Maria helped Sarah Jane after [[the Trickster]] made it so that she had never existed. In this reality, Luke also did not exist and she barely knew Clyde Langer. With the original timeline restored, however, Maria's father stumbled in on the existence of Sarah Jane's activities. Alan told Maria that they were moving away, concerned for his daughter, but Alan recanted and decided to stay in their old home when Maria convinced him that not all aliens were evil.

| | Some time later, she was helping aliens hide from the [[United States of America|American government]]. ([[SJA]]: ''[[The Mad Woman in the Attic]]'') |
| One day Sarah Jane and Alan had picked up Maria , Luke and Clyde and stopped off in a park where Clyde practises his skateboarding. Alan, disapointed at what he sees, attempts to teach Clyde, by sshowing off his own skills. Maria, desperate to get her dad away from the skate park takes several photos of everyone. When taking one of Sarah Jane something odd happens. Back in Sarah's attic, Sarah Jane tells Maria, Luke about a meteorite on course with Earth, but reassures them that Mr Smith will be able to deflect it away the following day. After telling Luke to go make some tea Sarah Jane tells Maria she is the one person she trusts best and gives her an alien puzzle box, that was given to her by a Verron Soothsayer who they helped fly home the previously week , who told her to give it to the person she trusts the most and just to 'remember' She attempts to open it that night in bed, but after becoming disappointed that she is barely getting anywhere she falls asleep holding it, as a mysterious cloaked figure approaches Sarah Jane's house. He holds out a hand and the lights in Sarah's house go out and her car disappears. Meanwhile the puzzle block glows blue in Maria's hand. The next day, after telling her dad if she was going to Sarah Jane's and realising her dad does not know (or at least can not remember) anybody named Sarah Jane Maria begins to get seriously freaked out. She crosses the road and finds some strange woman in Sarah's house who apparently knows her.
| |
| | |
| | |
| After checking the photos from before and finding Sarah Jane is not in them, rather the strange woman, Andrea Yates, Maria finds that Sarah Jane, Luke and Mr. Smith have all disappeared, and she alone remembers them. A woman named Andrea Yates is living in Sarah Jane's house as if she always has. Maria searches her contacts and finds Sarah Jane, Luke and Clydes' numbers have all vanished. She warns everybody about the impending meteor, but no one will listen, Clyde doesn't even know her very well. After claiming to her dad she was lying about a woman called Sarah Jane she decides to go investigating. She finds a newspaper article from 1964[[File:SJA107-0002.jpg|thumb|left|Maria in1964]] stating that a thirteen-year-old Sarah Jane Smith drowned after falling from a pier, where she was playing with her friend, Andrea Yates. As Maria watches, the names of the deceased and the survivor switch, though a bemused Alan claims he saw nothing. When Maria confronts Andrea, she becomes very angry, shouting at her. "I'm gonna work out how time got changed, I'm gonna find Sarah Jane, and NOTHING is gonna stop me!!!" Andrea throws her out and the panic stricken woman rushes to her attic and finds a second puzzle box.
| |
| | |
| The cloaked figure appears and reminds Andrea of himself and what she agreed. She can't bear her memory and begs him to help her. He offers to make Maria disappear. Andrea dreads the thought of knowing she would have erased Maria, but the figure promises she will forget, as the whole World will. After Andrea accepts, he dispatches a Graske, who chases Maria then drops the puzzle box. Maria comes to a dead end under a tunnel, and despite her attempts to dodge the gun, Graske shoots a clip attached to a cord at Maria, and the clip catches on to her breast pocket. The Graske telephotos Maria away just after Alan picks up the first . When Chrissie comes round he discovers his ex-wife cannot remember their daughter. Meanwhile Maria escapes from the Graske and finds herself on a beach promenade near two girls. She grabs a newspaper and sees the date, knowing July 13th 1964 to be the day of the accident. When Maria asks the two girls where she is, they introduce themselves as Andrea Yates and Sarah Jane Smith.Maria got capture by the Graske again she was sent to Limbo which she met Sarah Jane again happy to see each other Sarah tells her what was the alien Maria tells what kind of Person Andera is. Meanwhile Alan jack son capture the Grake and got Maria back anf toget they stop the Trickster and everyone was back to stop the meteorite ([[SJA]]: ''[[Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?]]'')

| [[File:SJA201-0033.jpg|thumb|left|Sarah Jane and Maria looking at the night sky]]Sarah Jane and her where discussing the things they did the creatures they seen together since Maria's arrival in Bannerman Road. They watch the night sky as they look forward to many more discoveries.At a radio telescope used by the Tycho Project's search for alien life, in rural Goblin's Copse, Lucy Skinner and her astronomer dad, Professor Nicholas Skinner, are observing the night sky when they spot strange lights floating about. Professor Skinner investigates, but goes missing. Lucy investigates, and is promptly captured herself.The following day, Luke and Clyde play a strategy game using Mr Smith, in order to learn about battle strategies. Sarah Jane interrupts as she had heard reports of the strange lights the previous night. Despite Mr Smith's assurances that strange lights rarely herald alien activity, decides to pursue the story. While Maria and her Dad discuss the large change that is about to happen in their lives, and Alan tells Maria that the decision is not just his to make. Sarah Jane, Clyde, Luke and Maria head to the countryside to investigate. They arrive at Goblin's Copse, and discuss the size of space, while being watched by something. Inside, the team finds Lucy, who tells them that her dad is still missing. Luke and Clyde look outside for the Professor, after being warned to stay away from the woods. As the boys begin to search the woods, the creature watching them becomes invisible.While Lucy sleeps, Sarah Jane manages to learn the truth from Maria. Alan has been offered a job in America, at the head office of his firm. Maria is ambivalent about the news; happy for her dad, but sad that she must leave her friends behind.At his house, Alan discusses the job with Chrissie and about how it will change Maria's life more than his.

| [[File:SJA202-0288.jpg|left|thumb|Maria, Luke and Cylde at the Sontaran spacepod]]When Lucy wakes up, Sarah Jane persuades her to recall the events of the previous night. Professor Skinner appears, though he seems strangely detached and unemotional. He orders Sarah Jane and Maria to leave immediately, which they do. Lucy makes him some coffee and he approaches her strangely.
| |
| Luke calls Sarah Jane, and when she and Maria arrive, he and Clyde show them the object. When the cloaking field is disabled and Sarah Jane immediately recognises the ship as Sontaran. Its Sontaran occupant, Commander Kaagh appears behind them, armed.
| |
| When Maria tricks Kaagh, the group manage to escape, splitting up, with Kaagh chasing them. Sarah Jane and Clyde attempt to reason with Professor Skinner. They discover that he is under mind control by the Sontaran. Outside the Observatory, Luke and Maria crawl into a vent that pierces into the building.
| |
| Maria and Luke watch from the vent, while Kaagh and Sarah Jane talk. He reveals he was badly wounded when the Doctor defeated the Sontaran army. The only survivor of the botched invasion, he has vowed revenge on Earth for his peoples' humiliation. He reveals his plan to use the Tycho radio telescope to take control of Earth's satellites, and steer them to crash into nuclear stockpiles on Earth, triggering nuclear annihilation.Clyde protests, so Kaagh says he will experiment on him. Sarah Jane steps in front of Clyde, denying Kaagh, who pulls out his gun and shoots her. Kaagh shoots Sarah Jane, who sprawls, unconscious, on the floor. He then boasts to Clyde that she will be taken to Sontar as a prize, and he will be hailed as a hero instead of a laughingstock and perhaps even given a more honourable epithet, such as "Kaagh the Avenger".Luke and Maria are hidden in a nearby vent, watching the scene unfold. They catch Clyde's attention and motion for him to join them. Luke, Maria, and Clyde provoke Kaagh into chasing them through the observatory's corridors and service tunnels; the teens escape into the forest and block Kaagh from getting out. They run to Kaagh's shuttle, Maria descides to tell Luke about America and luke feeling really upset because she has always been there for her from the very star but she said ''none that matters if we don't stop Kaagh '' he continues with the alien chemicals stored inside to synthesise a knockout gas that will incapacitate the Sontaran. But then Luke sets off the intruder alarm, and knowing that it will bring Kaagh, Cyde sets off to distract him.[[File:SJA202-0384.jpg|left|thumb|Maria telling Luke about America]]
| |
| | |
| Sarah Jane activates her new invention; just as she expected, Skinner soon appears to search for it. Sarah Jane and Lucy sneak out, locking Skinner in the room, and try to figure out a way to disarm the satellites. They let Clyde in through the same door Luke, Maria and Clyde escaped through earlier, just in time to save him from Kaagh, who they lock out. Kaagh enters through the the main door, breaks down the door to the room Skinner was locked in, and expresses his rage at him.Maria, not sure that Luke will be able to synthesise the gas in time, decides to ask Mr Smith for more information on defeating Sontarans. As Mr Smith is still in Ealing, she calls her dad and asks him to contact the computer. Alan does so, unaware that he has been followed into Sarah Jane's attic by his ex-wife Chrissie. Chrissie demands to know what is going on; Alan quickly brings her up to speed on Sarah Jane's alien hunting and Maria's role as her assistant. Chrissie realizes he is telling the truth as his lip twitches when he is lying. Maria's parents, fearful for her safety, decide to join their daughter at Goblin's Copse.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Sarah Jane, Maria, Clyde, Luke and Lucy all meet up. Sarah Jane takes Luke and Lucy with her to try and deactivate the transmitter, while Maria and Clyde go and try to find the switch that will move the transmitter away from the satellites. However Kaagh and Skinner get there first and capture them.
| |
| Luke tries to break into the observatory's main computers, eventually succeeding when he realises that Sontarans, who have three fingers on each hand, probably use base six mathematics. But Kaagh appears and reveals that Lucy is a sleeper agent, activates the mind-control chip he had implanted in her, and instructs her to re-activate the transmitter. He threatened Maria's life if Sarah Jane tries to stop him. All appears lost--until Chrissie bursts into the observatory [[File:SJA202-0853.jpg|right|thumb|Sarah Jane saying Goodbye to Maria ]]and attacks Kaagh's probic vent with her high-heeled shoe, incapacitating him more effectively than Luke's knockout gas was able to. The transmitter is de-activated, this time for good. Kaagh is escorted back to his ship and ordered to return to Sontar, which he is only too glad to do; he is humiliated that he was defeated by "half-forms" (children) and a woman. Sarah Jane is relieved, even if she is not entirely convinced that the Sontaran is gone for good.
| |
| | |
| Six weeks later, Maria came up to the attic to say goodbye to Mr.Smith and have one last look before she leaves and says her last goodbye to Sarah Jane and Sarah Jane apologies for her reaction when she told her about America because for the for time she found a family and so fast she was losing it and losing the daughter she always wanted Maria asked her will come visit her and she reply ''of course I will'' While getting in taxi there say their goodbyes to Sarah Jane, Luke, and Clyde, as they leave for their new life in America. As they go away in the taxi, Chrissie whispers to Sarah Jane that she was not entirely ignorant of her daughter's alien-hunting hobby.

Profile
Adventures with Sarah Jane , Luke and Clyde
When Maria was thirteen, her parents Alan and Chrissie Jackson divorced. Alan and Maria moved to 12 Bannerman Road (as referenced several times in the first series but changed to 36 Bannerman Road in the second series) in Ealing. The first night Maria made the life-changing discovery about her neighbour, Sarah Jane Smith, when she witnessed her conversing with a glowing winged alien. The very next day, she and a new friend from the neighourhood went to the Bubble Shock! factory, encountered other, unfriendly aliens and with Sarah Jane, Kelsey and a young artificial Human, Luke (at that time known only as "the Archetype"), banded together to defeat the Bane invasion. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane) One week later the now fourteen year old Maria met the "cool" Clyde Langer at school (Park Vale Comprehensive School), who joined with the others. (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen)
After a number of other adventures, Maria helped Sarah Jane after the Trickster made it so that she had never existed. In this reality, Luke also did not exist and she barely knew Clyde Langer. With the original timeline restored, however, Maria's father stumbled in on the existence of Sarah Jane's activities. Alan told Maria that they were moving away, concerned for his daughter, but Alan recanted and decided to stay in their old home when Maria convinced him that not all aliens were evil. (SJA: The Lost Boy)
During the Dalek theft of Earth, Maria was staying in Cornwall with her father. (DW: The Stolen Earth)
When Alan got a new job offer in America, Maria and Alan made the decision that he should accept the offer.They then moved to Washington, D.C. (SJA: The Last Sontaran) She still stayed in contact with Luke via email. (SJA:
Maria helped to find information on the Berserker to help Luke and Rani
The Day of the Clown) She and her dad also helped to find information on the Berserker. (SJA: The Mark of the Berserker)
Some time later, she was helping aliens hide from the American government. (SJA: The Mad Woman in the Attic)
Soon after she was invited to Sarah Jane's wedding but could not attend because she was taking exams. (SJA: The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith)
Alternate Realities
If Donna Noble had turned right for a job interview instead of turning left, Maria would have investigated the Royal Hope Hospital with Sarah Jane, Clyde and Luke. Since, as it was moved to the moon, the oxygen ran out it caused every one in the hospital, including Maria, to die of suffocation. (DW: Turn Left)
The Trickster's World
In The Trickster's World, Maria Jackson was erased from time by Krislok and then sent to Limbo. Because she was protected from the Trickster by the Verron soothsayer puzzle box, she was the only person who knew about the meteorite that was heading towards the Earth.
Personality
Maria had a patient, tolerant, and inquisitive personality. The divorce of her parents made her somewhat moody, and she was much less worldly-wise and trendy than Clyde though she was also braver and more sensitive. Clearly, Maria looked up to Sarah Jane, and Sarah Jane trusted her more than anyone in the world. (SJA: Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?)
Key Life Events
Behind the scenes
- Although Maria technically left the series in The Last Sontaran, each story for the remainder of Series 2 included some on-screen reference to her, with Maria herself making a cameo in The Mark of the Berserker. Maria was again referenced several times in Series 3, though she did not appear.
- Revenge of the Slitheen places Maria's birthday sometime in the last week of August as she had to be fourteen before the 1st of September to be in year 10 with Luke and Clyde. (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen)
