Maria Jackson: Difference between revisions

=== Meeting Sarah Jane Smith ===

In [[2008]], Alan and Maria moved to [[Bannerman Road]] in [[Ealing]]. The first night in her new home, Maria made the life-changing discovery about her neighbour, Sarah Jane Smith, whom she saw talking with a [[Star Poet|glowing, winged alien]]. The next day, she and a new friend, [[Kelsey Hooper]], went to the [[Bubble Shock! factory]] where Maria learned she was one of the 2% who didn't drink [[Bubble Shock!]] When Kelsey used her phone, it triggered the [[Bane (Invasion of the Bane)|Bane's]] alarms which awakened their artificially created human child, "the Archetype". Maria escaped the factory with Sarah Jane and the Archetype. On their return to Bannerman Road, Sarah Jane told her to forget everything she had seen and go live her life like a normal person.

=== Adventures with Sarah Jane, Luke and Clyde ===

A week later, Maria and Luke went to their first day at [[Park Vale Comprehensive School]], They met [[Clyde Langer]], who had also just started. Sarah Jane, investigating the [[Coldfire Construction|company]] who built the science block, told Maria and Luke to look around look for something suspicious. Clyde tagged along. They found two of the teachers and a student had disguised themselves as [[Slitheen family|Slitheen]], and the family were using transducers across the world to absorb power from the Sun so they could sell the Earth. Clyde then joined Luke and Maria in the fight against the Slitheen.

While the team were investigating claims of sightings of a ghostly nun at [[Lavender Lawns]], the local nursing home, Chrissie temporarily moved in with Maria and Alan, causing further problems in the family. At Lavender Lawns, an [[Bea Nelson-Stanley|old lady]] gave Luke an ancient [[talisman]], the key to a portal in space and time. The nuns were hiding an age-old creature, a [[Gorgon]]. They kidnapped Luke and Clyde and took the Gorgon and Maria to Sarah Jane's house, where the Gorgon turned her father into stone. Having got what they came for, the nuns and the Gorgon left.

When several people in [[Ealing]], including [[Dana Price|the mother]] of her school mate [[Julie Price|Julie]] started to steal gold Maria helped Sarah Jane to investigate. Together they went to the [[Auriga Clinic]]. There Maria was being injected with gold, while Sarah Jane talked to [[Francis Augur]]. Back at the attic of 13 Bannerman Road Mr Smith scanned Maria's body and told Sarah Jane that the gold would automatically be gone within a few days. That night, however Clyde and Luke saw Maria leaving for the Auriga Clinc. She was in some kind of cataleptic state, not fully aware of her environment, and unable to respond to stimuli. She didn't react when Luke and Clyde were calling her. The following morning Maria seemed to be completely normal and couldn't remember that she had left her house. Sarah Jane later found out that Maria was under the control of the [[Keratin]], who controlled her through the gold injection. The Keratin used Maria to spy on Sarah Jane. Sarah Jane did not want to worry Maria and did not want to let the Keratin know that she had found out about their control of Maria's mind, which could endanger Maria's life. Sarah Jane told Clyde and Luke not to mention the Keratin or Maria's nightly visit of the Auriga Clinic towards Maria. The next night Sarah Jane and Luke followed Maria to the Auriga Clinic. Maria and the other people who were controlled by the Keratin wanted to take away the oceans of the planet [[Earth]] to get the gold of the ocean. The Keratin wanted to use the gold to be able to control the whole universe. Sarah Jane later pressed a patch with lithium citrate on Maria's neck and Maria got free of the Keratin's mind control. The Keratin were killed by [[salt water]] and couldn't invade Earth any longer. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Glittering Storm (audio story)|The Glittering Storm]]'')

Maria, Clyde, Luke, [[Sam (The Thirteenth Stone)|Sam]], [[Bradbury (The Thirteenth Stone)|Mr Bradbury]] and Sarah Jane went on a school trip to the [[Stone Whisperers]]. There the alien [[Ravage]] started to take control of Luke's mind. Maria supported Luke when he fought a mental battle against Ravage and helped Luke expelling Ravage from his mind. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Thirteenth Stone (audio story)|The Thirteenth Stone]]'')

Mr Smith was monitoring a [[K67|meteorite]] that passed a radar blindspot and prepared to send it back. Sarah Jane handed Maria a [[Verron puzzle box|puzzlebox]] a [[Verron soothsayer]] had given her the previous week. [[The Trickster]] had been making a deal with [[Andrea Yates]] in [[1964]] to swap places with her friend. When the deal happened, Maria awoke in [[Andrea Yates' World|a world]] where she never befriended Clyde, Sarah Jane had died in 1964 and Mr Smith was never installed in [[13 Bannerman Road]]'s attic. The Trickster had guided away Maria's various encounters with aliens so that he could feed on the chaos of the meteorite strike.

=== A Sontaran farewell ===

Alan later received a letter inviting him to work in [[America]], at the head office of ''[[CapitolSys Technologies]]''. Maria was distraught at the implications, despite Alan telling her that the decision was not just his to make.

When the plan to deactivate the telescope had failed, all appeared lost until Chrissie burst into the observatory and attacked Kaagh's [[probic vent]] with her high-heeled shoe, allowing Luke to deactivate the telescope. Maria then used the gas to knock out her mother, having Alan take her home and pretend that she had dreamt everything about Kaagh.

=== Life in America ===

In September [[2010]], Maria congratulated Luke, through a social network, on being accepted to the [[University of Oxford]]. He attempted to tell her about the [[Nightmare Man]], but was unable to. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Nightmare Man]]'') Before Luke left he threw two farewell parties. Maria and Alan couldn't come to his farewell party however they sent [[holographic postcard]]s and for Luke it seemed like they were there as well. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Nightmare Man (novelisation)|The Nightmare Man]]'')
