Mary Walker

"Know what it's like to wake up and not know where you are or where you've been or what you said to whom? Do you know what it's like to wake up hungry because some other part of you didn't bother to eat because she wanted to paint pretty pictures instead?"

- Mary Walker to Joy Meachum

Mary Walker is a private investigator, mercenary and former special ops soldier with the United States Army who had been diagnosed with, which manifest mainly into two distinct personalities, the naïve Mary and the ruthless Walker. Walker was recruited by Joy Meachum along with Davos in investigate and capture Danny Rand, however her Mary persona befriended Rand and insisted upon helping him. Walker's struggles with her identity eventually led her to discovering a third mysterious persona while also choosing to betray and attempting to assassinate Davos who she had just deemed to be far to dangerous to be allowed to live.

Captured in Sokovia
While serving with the United States Army, Sergeant Walker and her squad were stationed out in Sokovia where they were eventually captured by the Sokovian Armed Forces. Walker and the surviving members of her squad were locked in a Sokovian prison where Walker was tortured and raped repeatedly by the Sokovian military, while also being forced to watch her squad members being executed before her eyes. This experience caused Walker terrible emotional distress, however she refused to allow herself to die in that prison, despite the torture and sexual abuse. As a result she created a split personality in an attempt to cope with the trauma. Her personality Mary was triggered by the falling rain.

Eventually Walker was removed from her cell and became aware that the Sokovian military were preparing to execute her. Unlocking a different personality within her mind, Walker broke free and armed herself with Twin Machetes, which she used to slaughter the soldiers until she was the only person left standing. Walker was eventually discovered by the United States Armed Forces, although she had no memory of how the men around her had died. As a result of her ordeal, Walker was diagnosed with and given a medical discharge from the army.

New Assignment and Adjustments
Following her diagnosis, Walker moved to New York City where she worked as a private investigator and mercenary. Walker was eventually hired by Joy Meachum to investigate and study Danny Rand, with the eventually goal being capture him with the aid of Davos. Walker switched between different personalities who all tried to take control over her. Using medications, streaming water or rain Mary would have control but when more anxious Walker would take control, Walker would leave notes behind to communicate with Mary but Mary never responded back.

Meeting Danny Rand
"How do you two know each other?" "Oh, we... we just ran into each other the other day. Mary's new in town, so I gave her directions." "Yeah, I was all turned around. That's twice now he's gone out of his way to be sweet."

- Colleen Wing, Danny Rand and Mary Walker

When controlled by Mary she ran into Danny Rand while he was working for Royal Al Moving, and had a friendly talk with him, claiming to have only recently moved to New York City. Mary's personality liked Rand and was not aware that Walker was investigating him. With both personalities having opposing stances towards Rand she became conflicted which resulted in Mary eventually sending the pictures of her surveillance to Rand, letting him know he was being investigated, and informing him that it was Walker who was following him, not explaining who exactly Walker was.

Confronted by Davos and Joy
"I get it. You guys wanna know the job's not blown, and I'm asking you to take it on faith." "Faith is not a commodity that I trade in anymore." "And I'm not sitting here with my hand on a Bible. I've spent the last 60 days tracking Danny Rand. I know where he sleeps, how he eats, how he thinks and how he fights. And I also know that there are not many people in this world who can handle that thing his fist does."

- Mary Walker and Joy Meachum

In her Apartment, Walker was confronted by Davos and Joy Meachum who had found out Danny Rand had received the pictures of her surveillance on him. As Davos tried to force her to answer she threatened him with her Twin Machetes. Meachum managed to calm the situation down and Davos left the building. Meachum talked about her personal issues and then noticed a medical description that explained the identity disorder Walker was suffering from. Walker became enraged and seized Meachum in a chokehold while screaming at her how much she was suffering from Mary taking control of her and not knowing what Mary did. She calmed down and she and Meachum agreed she would perform her end of the deal.

Capture of Danny Rand
"Can you manage it today?" "Yes. Probably. I can take the necessary precautions." "I need you to look me in the eye and tell me that you can pull this off. If you can do that, then I will leave. And I will take it on faith."

- Joy Meachum and Mary Walker

Walker ambushed Danny Rand in the subway and attacked him. Having studied his fighting style she was able to systematically defeat him in a one sided fight. She injected him with a sedative and then knocked him out and dragged him away. Delivering Rand to Davos she witnessed the ritual that Davos used to drain blood from him and take the Iron Fist for himself. Walker listened to music as she tried to ignore Rand's suffering during the ritual.

A New Job Offer
"I need protection. At least until I figure out an exit plan." "I can take your money, run protection, but it's a Band-Aid. If this guy Davos decides he wants to hurt you, all bets are off. And if you don't want to run, you need to eliminate the threat." "Eliminate is a word with connotations." "No, it isn't. It's just what it sounds like. You can look over your shoulder day and night forever, or you can hire me to make the problem go away."

Apprehended by Misty Knight
"Enough! There are a couple of ways this could go. There's no time for a flesh wound, so I will put the bullet between your eyes."

Attack on Davos
"What are you really doing here, Walker?" "We have a problem. I'm here to take care of it." "You're gonna kill him. That's not part of the deal." "You're in no condition to stop me." "Let me talk to him. Try and reach him." "Your friend Ward was right. He won't listen. He's too far gone. I can't be tied to this, and neither can Joy."

A Message from Mary
"Your friend Joy came round and she said she wanted you to protect her. Which made me remember all the times that you have protected me. Back in Green Bay. In Sokovia. You got us out of that hole, so thank you for that. I, uh... I do not wanna keep trading one dark place for another. What if we can get help? Isn't it worth trying? I, uh, I know that you're the strong one, so I surrender. I trust you. Shit. If, when I wake up, I'm in Arizona, then so be it. But I hope that you choose another way."

- Mary to Walker

While sitting at a table within the Apartment, Mary stationed her phone on the table and prepares a video message to Walker. She expressed appreciation for the rescue during the imprisonment in Sokovia and granted full authority over her well-being before ending the recording and sleeping for the night.

Upon awakening, Walker took notice of the sticky note left by Mary, prompting her to view the video message. She repeated a clip in which Mary mentioned being rescued and was taken aback. She visited Paul Edmonds for answers to the missing memory.

A Deal with Ward Meachum
"There's a part in my military history that's been redacted. I need to find out what's under the black." "Mmm. Even if I wanted to help you, and I don't, I can't pull non-redacted DOJ files." "You can't, but you can pay someone who can."
