During this time, Butch came to be a colleague and partner to her father in the Secret Service. One day, the pair were on a mission protecting the President when both were shot and killed by terrorists. Their deaths devastated Mary who was said to had never smiled again after the incident.
Mary's former lover, Butch, and her father have worked together as fellow colleagues in the secret service, and her cousin, Kevin Rian, was an officer.

The leather jacket she wears is a keepsake given to her as a gift from Butch. Having been taught by her former lover how to fight, she becomes a freelancer. Mary Ryan uses the codename 'Blue Mary' to honor the late Butch, named after her late boyfriend's favorite drink from the favorite bar he visited, a cocktail. By extension, Mary often drinks the 'Blue Mary' cocktail during vacations, particularly while at resorts and beaches.
Mary was commissioned to investigate the rumors of the Jin Scrolls in South Town. During her investigation, she ran into Terry Bogard, who was also in search of the scrolls, and fought. Realizing the two could work together to solve this mystery, the two would become good friends. After realizing the Scrolls' connection to the two Jin brothers, she went to her employers wondering why they didn't mention this information to her, implying that the one who hired her was Geese Howard. Mary entered the upcoming King of Fighters tournament to help Terry settle scores with Geese Howard. Sometime after the Maximum Mayhem tournament, Mary approached Terry discussing over the whereabouts of Rock Howard and the rumors that persist around him regarding the rise of Second South Town as a city state. She offered Terry a ride by to the Pao Pao Cafe, to gloss over the current case she was working on.

However, Freeman ambushes them and attempt to kill her first before he will did the same to Marky.
