Powers
- U-Go Girl could teleport herself and others (in a radius of five feet) across the globe, although, this process was physically draining, and she was dependent on a stimulant to keep her energy high enough to continually teleport the team. Unfortunately, overuse of the stimulant throws off her power's ability to "aim" her jumps. She often fell asleep after multiple teleports. The longer the jump the more she must rest. Edie also has light blue skin, which she appeared to have in childhood, well before her initial power manifestation.

History
Born and raised in a small midwestern town, Edie often felt like a stranger in the presence of her own father. Restless and eager for bigger, better things, she became pregnant by a young drifter when she was fifteen. Edie confessed to her parents when she could no longer hide the signs, and soon discovered the truth about her own parentage: she herself was the daughter of an anonymous drifter whom her mother slept with, and the man who raised her as her father was unable to have children. Instead of disowning Edie, her parents formed an elaborate lie to protect her. She was pulled out of school under the ruse of an illness, and her mother began putting a pillow under her dress to pretend that she was pregnant. Thus, when the child was born she would be raised as Edie's sister rather than her daughter. Edie's power of teleportation fully manifested when she first looked at her daughter's face and felt a powerful urge to "get away." She appeared atop the Hollywood sign in Los Angeles.
A few years later, Edie returned to Los Angeles to make her fortune. She struggled as a waitress and an actress until she became smitten with X-Force leader Zeitgeist and decided to try out for the team. She perfected her "aim" with her teleportation and came up with the codename "Tele- Girl"; she became U-Go Girl after she accidentally flashed a crowd during her team tryout and someone screamed, "You go, girl!"
U-Go Girl participated in the New York mission for X-Force, that resulted in all but her, Anarchist, and Doop dying. It was revealed that she was having an affair with Zeitgeist and held his upper torso as he died. Following the deaths of most of her original teammates, U-Go Girl was hoping to be named leader, as she had seniority, only to find out that Orphan had been appointed instead. Later, Orphan and U- Go Girl developed a mutual attraction.
Orphan convinced U-Go Girl to face the ghosts of her pasts and reunite with her young daughter, Katie. Katie still believed that Edie was merely her faraway big sister, and Edie's mother discouraged Edie's intentions. Noting the dangerousness of X-Force's missions, Mrs. Sawyer believed that it would be wrong for Edie to disrupt Katie's life, especially if she were ever to be killed during a mission. Edie reluctantly agreed, but took her "little sister" on several quick teleportation trips around the world so that she would have happy memories of her.
On their mission to fight the shapeshifting, mutated convicts called the Bush Rangers, U-Go Girl, Orphan and Anarchist got trapped on a spaceship that was drifting into deep space, with only a two-person lifeboat available. They rolled dice to see who would die, and Anarchist lost (on purpose, using his acidic sweat to affect the outcome of the die). U-Go Girl and the Orphan arrived back at X-Force's ship and overrode the controls, allowing them to save the Anarchist. Unfortunately, U-Go Girl was then killed when a Bush Ranger, posing as new X-Force team mate Spike, shot a bone spur into her stomach. After she died the remainder of the team wrapped her body in a shroud and sent it into space.
