The danger was that, with the bullying, the girl might be inclined to see things in terms of ‘us’ against ‘them’.
That sounds accurate. There’s been a lot of back and forth on who’s us and who’s them, but that has been a strong trait of Taylor’s since the beginning.
Her interactions with the heroes thus far certainly hadn’t put them in the ‘us’ category. This might also explain why she had gravitated back towards the Undersiders, even after the chaos Colin had sown by revealing her intentions for joining the group.
That and some other motives.
The various cameras around the city were out-of-order or lacking power, the schools were not operational, and there was no telling if the girl would even be active in her civilian identity. Assuming this was not some fantastic coincidence.
Good luck, I guess.
Dragon knew she would have to be patient. Even with Dragon’s full resources turned to the task, she would not find the girl in seconds as she might in another time or place. She set background processes to ensure the hunt continued steadily, instead.
Sounds like a good idea.
She would be ready to act the instant the girl resurfaced.
But how exactly? Gonna show up on random screens by the street, or something? TVs in shop windows, that kind of thing?
Or maybe she’ll come flying in a small agent vehicle…
Neither of these are particularly subtle tactics. 😛
