What now?
That was the question Sara was asking herself
So far she had worked hard in hope of satisfying Uncle Muscle's demands for her family information while looking a little bit herself on the sidelines
But now, she didn't have a motivation
Her two brothers were missing without any kind of information of their whereabouts and Jess was in a place she couldn't go
She could ask a hero to take her to jess, but she believed uncle Muscle's warning that she would probably be taken to an orphanage
And she couldn't ask Uncle Muscle to ask on her behalf since he just told her the heroes didn't like him
She had no info on her missing brothers, and had no way of contacting her sister, so all she could do was think her hardest on the sofa
It is there where she suddenly remembered something
Missing and disappearances
In her extensive research on that day incident, she also searched for clues on the hood guys and found some interesting stuff
There were a lot of known facts like they made a living by the selling of unique drugs, all of them having low-level powers, the teams were a mixture of cyborgs and powered, and they would kill themself if they were capture
But besides the known facts, there were a couple of rumors going around
The most common one was that the group was a suicidal group of low level powered. It was known that there were ranks since there were some that were more protected than others so there was a hierarchy in the group, helping the theory of a cult
Besides the most commonly accepted cult theory, there were some other interesting theories including one that interested Sara
They kidnapped children
Of course, most people didn't believe that theory since the hood guys were practically the boogie man after the factory incident and there were a lot of nasty rumors about them
Like they catch low levels powered and brainwashed them, or that they produce all the drug circulating the streets, that they murder normal people for fun, etc
But for Sara, that already believed they were the incarnation of evil, she believed it
Not only did she believed it, after considering what Uncle Muscle said about them disappearing after the factory incident and how nobody found them yet, she started suspecting they were kidnaped by them
Or more like, she wanted to believe they were kidnapped by them
They were there, they kidnapped children, they were the reason of everything bad that happened to her and that both her brothers disappeared after everything that happened
She even remember that they were there and suddenly they were gone, helping root on her mind the theory that they were kidnapped
So the moment she started following that train of thought, she went from suspecting that it might be true to being completely and absolutely sure it was their doing
Who else would it be?
Which took her to one obvious conclusion, she must find them and see what they did with her brothers
Since she was so sure of their guilt, finding them equals finding her brothers
But that is where the problems started

How could she find them?
They were wanted by the heroes and authorities, and the group hadn't been cached yet
How could a 6 years old kid do what heroes couldn't?
On the other hand, she didn't want to catch them, she just wanted information on them
And wasn't Uncle Muscle an expert on finding information? or, at least, that was what he bragged all the time
Sadly, when Sara asked about the hood guys, he could tell it was for revenge and never told her anything about them, so asking him was pointless
Even if she tried, she suspected that all she would get was some yelling and a warning to not even try
If asking about them wouldn't work, what other option did she have? Simple, follow his example
When she realized that asking him wouldn't work, she went for plan B, how would Uncle Muscle find them
She already spent a year working for him, and the first thing she noticed is that he rarely left home to search for information
Instead, he had other people do it for him
She never knew what the information was about, but she knew he got it from the people she meets in her deliveries and probably a lot more she didn't know
Those guys were his informants(well some of the guys she met maybe be competitors or buyers) that funded the information for him
If she wanted to imitate Uncle Muscle, she needed her own informants since asking Uncle muscle informant would lead to them telling Uncle Muscle
She didn't want Uncle muscle to find out since she would be scolded and stopped, so her best option would be to find Informant of her own
But how?
She didn't know how to get informants since Uncle Muscle never told her, and even if she found them, she doubted they would do it for free
She stayed on the couch who knows how long on thinking how to solve this problem when she suddenly realized she was starving
She took the food from the bag and heated on the microwave like usual, and thought while waiting how lucky she was of having something warm to eat
If it was her of the past, she would have done anything for something warm to eat
And that is when a flash of inspiration came
No one wanted a warm or tasty food more than a homeless person
She had free warm food and even money, but for her of the past and any slum kid, It was a luxury they would do anything to have
Since she had the extra money Uncle Muscle gave her, plus saving, she could afford to spend some with other slum kids like her
Slum kids were easy to please, satisfied with cheap stuff, would do almost anything for a little of food, knew more than what it looked like and since she used to be like them, knew what they would like the most
They were the perfect source of information for her
And she wouldn't hesitate to use them to find her family
Besides, she would be helping people like her in the process
It was the perfect plan
Absolutely
Right?
What could go wrong?
