Captain Marissa Faireborn was stationed at the EDCs base on Mars when a call for aid came through from Autobot communications officer Blaster. Marissa had been tracking an Autobot shuttle which had come under attack by Galvatron and the Decepticons in the vicinity of Jupiter, and Blaster requested that she provide back up to the stricken craft. Marissa deployed immediately, but before she could make it onto the scene, the shuttle was destroyed by a cosmic storm, and its occupantsBlurr, Wheelie and the new transforming cog for Metroplex that they were couriering to Earthwere blasted to the planets moon Io. Tracking their trajectories, Marissa set course for the moon, Five Faces of Darkness, Part 3 and arrived to witness the two Autobots being terrorized by a swarm of the moons native lightpoles. Blurr was able to clear the swarm with cog in hand, and the militaristic Marissa set her ship down and instructed him to come aboard. Unwilling to leave Wheelie behind, the speedy Autobot raced back into the heart of the swarm in order to save his friend, an action that Marissa seemed unable to comprehend, deeming her digital wristwatch capable of better decisions. Nonetheless, she disembarked her ship and entered the fray herself with a jet pack, firing at the lightpoles with a null ray blaster. Marissa was able to thin the swarm out enough for Blurr and Wheelie to get clear, but before they could get aboard her ship, several of the lightpoles transformed into their missile forms and fell upon the craft, blowing it up. Marissa quickly took stock of the situation and stopped Blurr from panicking so they could examine the wreckage and see if the ships radio was still working. Five Faces of Darkness, Part 4 The radio was, indeed, still functional, and Marissa used it to contact Blaster on Earth as the trio were again set upon by the lightpoles. Blaster tried to assuage her fears by assuring her that Sky Lynx was on his way, but Marissa didnt even know who or what that was, so it didnt raise her spirits much. Soon after, the powerful Sky Lynx arrived on Io and blasted the lightpoles to bits, but before Marissa, Wheelie and Blurr could board his cargo pod, they were set upon by the newest Decepticon warriors, the Predacons. Marissa could do little in the battle that ensued, but was at least able to escape injury, nimbly vaulting over Rampage as he charged at her. After Sky Lynx had successfully dispatched the Predacons, the team headed for Earth at top speed, and successfully delivered the transforming cog in time for Metroplex to transform and fend off an attack by Trypticon. Soon after, Marissa stood beside her allies and watched as Rodimus Prime addressed the Autobot forces on their concurrent victory over the Quintessons. Five Faces of Darkness, Part 5. As 2. 00. 6 settled in, Marissa was aboard the EDCs space station in orbit above Earth when an unexpected EDC shuttle started an approach. Marissa demanded an identification from the shuttles pilot, and was overjoyed to discover that was it was actually her father, come to visit. As the shuttle touched down in the landing bay, Marissa boarded quickly and embraced her father, but before she could lead him off the ship, its doors shut behind her and it quickly took off again. The shuttle was, in actuality, a disguised Quintesson vessel, and her father was nothing more than a solid hologram which abruptly transformed into a monstrous shape and attacked her. With a few quick martial arts kicks and chops, Marissa had downed the simulation, and then discovered she was not the Quintesson scientists only captive Ultra Magnus, Cyclonus, and Wreck Gar had also been abducted to participate in the Quintessons experiments. Knocked out by a submission field, Marissa was to be the Quintessons first examination subject, but Wreck Gar was able to deactivate the submission device, allowing her to overpower the feeble Quintesson scientist. Chaos ensued when the ship passed through an electron storm, and Marissa used the fighting as a cover to reach the ships controls, intending to plot a course back to Earth. Unfortunately, the ship was now caught in the gravity of a black hole, and Marissa had to stop everyone from fighting so they could work together to assess the situation. The Quintesson scientist attempted to flee aboard the ships lone working escape pod, but Ultra Magnus hauled him from the pod and attempted to send Marissa to safety in his place. Unfortunately, interference from the Quintessons guard delayed Marissa from boarding, and the whole ship was sucked through the black hole, into a negative universe. Only through finally putting aside their differences and working together, were Marissa, the Transformers and the Quintessons able to repair the ship and return to their universe of origin, where Sky Lynx soon arrived to take Marissa, Wreck Gar and Ultra Magnus home. The Killing Jar. The inspiration for Kiss Players. Marissa was engaging in a bout of regular target practise at an EDC gun range on Earth, trying out level 3 in her pursuit of a challenge. After blasting a target of Cyclonus, she was suddenly struck by a wave of chronal energy released into the universe by a malfunctioning Quintesson Time Window. The energy caused Marissa to regress into a crying infant, much to the shock of the EDC trooper on watch at the time. Luckily, the Autobots, working with the Quintessons, were able to shut down and destroy the time window, undoing the effects of the chronal energy. Forever Is a Long Time Coming. Teamed with the Technobots as part of a science unit, Marissa and her Autobot allies were called into action to rescue smuggler free trader Dirk Manus when his ship, the Lazy Sue was attacked by the Terrorcons. A mutual attraction between Marissa and Manus sprang up immediately, but Marissa did not trust the trader entirely when he claimed that he had found a Quintesson base on the moon of Titan. As Computron, the Technobots supported investigation of his claims, but until the Lazy Sue could be repaired, Marissa resolved not to let Manus out of her sight, leading to a romantic evening of dinner and dancing. This did not win Marissa over entirely, however, and she soon confirmed her suspicions when she tracked Manus back out into the desert where he had crashed, and discovered that he was actually attempting to transport a highly experimental molecular recreator to the Quintessons. Marissa attempted to arrest Manus, but he pulled a concealed weapon on her and shot the blaster from her hand before overpowering her in a struggle, knocking her out and tying her up. She was not found until the next morning, by Afterburner and Noseconethe rest of the Technobots had already departed for Titan with Manus.
