Two months have passed since Yukiko picked up Salem from the hospital. At first, Akari was against letting Salem live with Yukiko and her Husband Sora. But when that set off the already short fuse of Yukiko and she began to threaten her with the police and also said that if she wanted to see Salem she should get her drug problem under control.
Was it a bad idea to take away a child from her parents without their consent or approval of the court? Yes, yes it was. But Yukiko didn't care, the pictures she was shown by Nagato were enough for her.
After Sora came back from his business trip and heard what happened he again went to Akari's house and explained to her that they would only look after Salem as long as Akari would not prove that she bettered herself.
Salem soon began to train the katana in a small dojo consisting only of her and get master. She liked the feeling when she entered a trance when repeating the movements and also the adrenaline pumping through her veins when she fought the other members of the s
Another two years later and Akari stood in front of Yukiko's house and this time sue was the one threatening with a court case this time for kidnapping Salem.
So Salem began living with her mother again, Akari tried to be the best mother she could be, and the constant fear, of the guy who raped her coming back and potentially doing it again being gone worked wonders.
She woke up very early to make breakfast for Salem and a lunchbox for her school, what she didn't know was that Salem would throw it into the next trashcan she found.
Not out of any strong feelings towards her mother but simply because it didn't taste good. Salem could not describe the taste but it tasted horrible. That, however, was not the fault of her mother. Salem found that she could not enjoy normal food and only nearly raw beef or food drenched in blood tasted somewhat good but even she only got down so many bites until she could not force herself to eat. So she didn't eat anything big except once or twice a month when she took raw beef out of the fridge before her mom had time to cook it.
That changed another half a year later, Salem now 10 years old had enough and decided that she needed some of the delicious meat she had 3 years before. She could still remember the taste well, not that she could ever forget anything.
Salem decided to look for possible ways of obtaining human flesh. She made contact with an information broker under a false identity and only called him through a telephone booth so nothing could be traced to her.
All the spy movies and information on the net helped her with coming up with that. The phone number was infamous because the information broker was known to be or be in contact with villains but the heroes and police never got any hard evidence. The longest he was in jail was around a month and that already stretched the legal limit to its maximum.
She asked him to find her a job that paid with human body parts or with slaves or whatever had some human meat as a payment. She had to tell him the things her Quirk was able to do roughly so no details.
Salem at some found out that she had a "mystical" Quirk, at least that's what she calls it. It meant that her Quirk had an unnatural ability. She discovered it when she was with her mother. Her mother got a dog for herself when she quit drugs and alcohol. Salem was bored and tried to trap the dog with her webs but when the webs connected to its head it felt like her fingers where the webs connected went into a tight fleshy tunnel, and not the good way.
Salem wished for the feeling to go away, the feeling didn't go away, but the dog who was not completely bound walked away until the strings cut into its hide.
As Salem saw this she forgot about the feeling coming from her fingers and focused on the dog. She wished for him to go left and that he did the golden retriever shot to the left and if Salem didn't desire him to stop the strings would have cut into his flesh or Salem would go flying.
That day Salem found another ability of her Quirk. As far as she tested she could control minds as long as her webs were connected to the target's head. She also could permanently reconstruct the mind of animals at the least but that took time and often repeated commands.
And a month later the information broker had a job for her. A customer of his was searching for someone, who could permanently recondition the mind of someone and would pay with a human body.
At first, she was hesitant to accept this job but after she went hungry for another week, she decided to take the job. She got the location of an apartment and was told that the instructions of the person, which she would recondition the mind, had to follow after she was done with the person.
