The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Littlefoot closed his eyes trying to stop his world from spinning,In in time he completely collapsed. With his head underwater he blacked out,he wasn't ready for all this action yet.

Taro was looking over at him. "LITTLEFOOT!" he cried, running forward and pulling him completely out of the water.

Lily quickly swam to sure. "Taro! Something's wrong with him!"

"I can see that!" Taro answered.

Grandpa rushed over to them. "What happened?!" he exclaimed.

"He said there was an injury that felt like it was tearing him apart," Lily explained.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Taro asked.

"He... asked me.. not to..." Lily said quietly.

"Crud," Taro muttered, but to his surprise he looked behind him and saw the healer fast biter from earlier.

The fast biter walked up to Littlefoot and Lily pointed to the wound he was complaining about.

"Something bad happened back at the Shadowlands," said Taro after the fast biter snarled at him. Both of them looked very worried.

"Is it serious?" Nahla asked getting out of the water.

"I think it might be," Taro said quietly as the fast biter ran off to find something he knew would help.

Nahla pointed to Littlefoot's mouth "Is that normal?".

A few drops of blood dripped from Littlefoot's mouth,something was wrong.

"Oh no..." Grandpa cried, starting to panic.

HURRY UP YOU... THING!" Taro roared to the other fast biter who had long disappeared. He soon came back with a variety of plants for Littlefoot and immediately set to work, inspecting the wound Lily had told him about.

"I'm... not too sure..." said Taro. The fast biter growled something at him. "Actually, dad... get the kids out of here. Apparently this is something they really don't want to see."

"What's he going to do?" Grandpa questioned, now even more worried. "He's not going to eat him, is he?"

Taro sighed at the common stereotype that all carnivores were out to eat everyone's children, or grandchildren in this case. "No... he's going to clean that wound out because it's got a lot of gunk in it. After that he's going to try and close it so it heals quicker," he explained.

"Oh..." Grandpa shuddered at the thought, and picked the two young females up to get them away.

The fast biter used a treestar to get the visible gunk out. The treestar was covered in that and blood. The carnivore rolled Littlefoot over so more light got into the wound so he could see into it more clearly.

"Shoot," he growled quietly.

"What's wrong?" Taro asked, starting to panic.

"The wound is mostly clean but it's already caused an infection throughout the body," the fast biter answered. He cleaned out any remaining gunk with his tongue now which made Taro feel queasy but it was quicker and more effective. He then quickly rubbed some juice from a pink treesweet which would stop anything else spreading and rubbed it within the wound, before going to find something else.

"Feeling better?" Grandma asked, smiling at her.

The fast biter came back with some narrow vine and a short but straight stick with a sharp end. Taro shuddered when he saw it, remembering having the have that thing going into his body when he was first found after that sharptooth attack.

The fast biter carefully punctured a hole in the stick and thread the vine through it before setting to work. He managed to make quite a clean job of closing the wound up, and just licked any blood off the young longneck. When he was done he took a few steps back and sighed.

"I'm afraid there's not much else I can do until he wakes up," he admitted. "When he does I'll mix up a few of those treesweets which will help kill off the infection and give it to him."

"Your father and the children went to find Taro," Grandma explained. "He went on one of his little guilt trips again."
