Sky Smith Sky Smith was created by Miss Myers , a member of a Fleshkind race , as a bio - weapon intended to exterminate the Metalkind . She was later adopted by Sarah Jane Smith . She was similar to Sarah Jane ' s son Luke in that while she had the physical appearance of a pre - teen , she was actually a " newborn " . Biography . Creation . The Fleshkind and Metalkind had been at war for centuries before " Sky " was born . Sky was created by Miss Myers ( essentially her mother ) as a superweapon that could destroy every single Metalkind across the entire universe . She had to be primed to detonate , which involved her being in vicinity of at least one Metalkind ; she would then explode , inevitably ending her life . ( TV : " Sky " ) Meeting Sarah Jane . Before this could happen however , she was taken to Earth by the Shopkeeper and Captain and dropped off at Sarah Jane ' s house where the Shopkeeper believed she would be safest . She began to blow out all of the electricity in Bannerman Road and Sarah Jane named her Sky because it seemed like she had " fallen out of it " . While Sarah Jane was busy looking for where she came from , Sky was taken care of by Clyde until a member of Metalkind arrived . She found baby Sky outside her doorstep . Sky was captured by her " mother " and brought to the power plant , where the Metalkind approached her and triggered her prime transformation into a preadolescent . Being taken from the plant , Sky was brought back to Bannerman Road , where Mr Smith told her that she was a bomb meant to destroy the Metalkind and that only Miss Myers could defuse the explosion she was genetically programmed for . As Miss Myers was bringing Metalkind to earth in an attempt to force Sarah Jane to give her up , Sky decided to fulfil her destiny and go to the Metalkind world before Miss Myers could succeed . Luckily however , Clyde Langer and Rani Chandra prevented the Metalkind from appearing and the lone Metalkind teleported himself and Miss Myers away from Earth back to the war . Due to the discharge of energy when the portal was closed , Sky ' s bomb status was wiped and she was brought back to Bannerman Road , where she was introduced as Sarah Jane ' s new daughter to the Chandras . ( TV : " Sky " ) Part of the gang . Sky met the Shopkeeper and the Captain again in Sarah Jane ' s attic , where they confirmed that they were the ones who had dropped her off at Sarah Jane ' s . Sky wanted to stay with Sarah Jane and the Shopkeeper agreed before they teleported away . " Sky Smith " had become Sarah Jane ' s daughter . ( TV : " Sky ) " Less than a month later , Sky was enrolled in Park Vale Comprehensive School . While she and Sarah Jane were being interviewed by Haresh Chandra , it began to rain fish . Due to her non - human nature , Sky was the only person who did not fall victim to the curse put on Clyde by Hetocumtek . She confronted Sarah Jane , Rani and Carla Langer and deduce d that Hetocumtek was using Clyde ' s name to escape from his totem pole . After consulting Mr Smith for advice , she urged Sarah Jane and Rani to break the curse on themselves by saying Clyde ' s name and remembering what he meant to them . They found Clyde and took him back to Bannerman Road where Mr Smith teleported the totem pole into the attic . Clyde defeated Hetocumtek by shouting his name at the totem pole ; the curse was lifted and the totem pole destroyed . ( TV : " The Curse of Clyde Langer " ) As one of the top three journalists in the United Kingdom , Sarah Jane was invited to the rehearsal of the launch of the SerfBoard by Joseph Serf . She took with her both Sky and Luke , who had just come back from university . She met her old editor Lionel , and continued to amiably reject his romantic advances . Luke and Sky both noticed something was wrong with Mr Serf when he " glitched " . Sarah Jane found out through Mr Smith that the real Serf had died in a skiing accident in 2007 . She organised an interview with the hologram Serf but his associate John Harrison stayed with them . Sarah Jane made numerous attempts to expose Serf and finally did so as she resisted his attempt to hypnotise her . Harrison drew an alien weapon and threatened Sarah Jane . Serf was being controlled by Skullion slaves of Harrison ; Luke and Sky had discovered this and took control of Serf to distract Harrison . Harrison wanted to hypnotise the entire planet via Serf so he could make billions in profit when everyone bought the SerfBoard . He then took Sarah Jane ' s sonic lipstick and locked her in a room with a cleaner and Luke and Sky in another . Another prisoner with Sarah Jane was Adriana Petrescu , a cleaner who wanted to help the Skullions . They manage to escape and free Luke and Sky who had used K9 ' s whistle to alert Clyde and Rani via Mr Smith to get the pen Harrison was using to torture the Skullions . Clyde and Rani arrived at the launch in disguise and managed to retrieve Harrison ' s pen . Luke and Sky took control of Serf whilst Sarah Jane and Adriana took the Skullions to the roof of the building . Mr Smith had alerted the Skullion species to send a spaceship to Earth to pick up the Skullions . Harrison took his pen back and began to kill the Skullions , but Luke and Sky used Serf to hypnotise the audience at the launch to destroy Harrison ' s pen , which they did . He told Clyde and Rani to go to the roof where a Skullion spaceship appeared and took the freed Skullions home . Harrison had also been beamed up by the Skullion spaceship , where Luke hoped that the Skullions would put him to work . Sarah Jane gave Adriana a card for U . N . I . T , offering to facilitate getting her a good job there . Sarah Jane and her gang then returned home . Sky was treated to a picture of herself drawn by Clyde and hung up by Luke . She then embraced her brother . ( TV : " The Man Who Never Was " ) Sky went along , Sarah Jane , Clyde and Rani to an antiques auction . Sarah Jane bought the head of the Difference Golem Adam . Then they tried to find the body of Adam at Holcote House . Since the metal body was difficult to find Sky used her electric power to find Adam ' s body . After body and head were put together Sky activated Adam with her electric power . Later the part of Adam which contained Adam ' s consciousness was brought back to the future . ( AUDIO : " Children of Steel " ) Sky helped to convince the Veritas that Sarah Jane ' s lies to keep the existence of aliens hidden from humans were only made to protect the humans . ( AUDIO : " Judgement Day " ) Later life . Sarah Jane and her gang continued to have adventures , defend Earth and save countless lives . ( AUDIO : " Children of Steel " , " Judgement Day " ) Statues were raised in their honour and they left behind a legacy that lasted forever . ( PROSE : " The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith " , TV : " The Man Who Never Was " ) Personality . Upon her transformation or " priming " , Sky knew nothing of the world . In this regard , she was very similar to Sarah Jane ' s first adoptive child , Luke — a similarity Rani noted early on . Because of her naïveté , Sky asked many questions , wanting to know more about Earth , which she loved . ( TV : " Sky " , " The Curse of Clyde Langer " ) Sky enjoyed Clyde ' s jokes more than Sarah Jane and Rani did , and was very joyful . She could also be quite defiant and very brave , however . Shortly after her birth , she ignored the Bannerman Road gang ' s protests when she was willing to die in order to save Earth — and specifically , to save Sarah Jane , with whom she had quickly developed a bond . ( TV : " Sky " ) She later defied protests by Sarah and Rani that they didn ' t want to hear about Clyde again , as she was the only person immune to the curse on Clyde ' s name . ( TV : " The Curse of Clyde Langer " ) Sky was nervous about meeting Luke in person and was initially jealous of him , but quickly she grew to love her brother as he did her . Unlike Luke , she did not call Sarah Jane " Mum " . ( TV : " The Man Who Never Was " ) She also liked " Toy Story " . ( TV : " The Man Who Never Was " ) Abilities . Sky was created as a bomb to wipe the entire Metalkind species from existence . Miss Myers compared the girl ' s power to the fury of a supernova . Sky could make electrical devices activate , malfunction or explode by laughing or crying . She exuded an orange aura and could shoot powerful electrical pulses from her hands . These powers were apparently nullified after she absorbed the energy of a power station , though some of her influence over electrical devices remained , albeit more controlled . ( TV : " Sky " ) She was immune to the effects of the curse placed on Clyde Langer due to her not being human . ( TV : " The Curse of Clyde Langer " ) She also was sensitive to power fluctuations , and like Luke was able to view the glitch that revealed Joseph Serf as being a hologram . ( TV : " The Man Who Never Was " ) Behind the scenes . In the intended final story for series 5 , " The Battle for Bannerman Road " , Sky would have been revealed as a " child of the Trickster " who had been given to Sarah Jane as part of the Trickster ' s scheme to conquer Earth with chaos . She , herself , would have become like the Trickster . Russell T Davies noted an interest in the horror of the Trickster ' s mouth and lack of eyes on a child . ( DWMSE 32 )
