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

LBT: A Life-saving Journey

Ecco rubbed his head as he looked at Cayso and Diver. Well, if you say so, then maybe it¥s good indeed that I didn¥t know him. But to come to another point: We remained here quite for a too long time and should continue our way back to your brother.

OCC: This is important, please take a look in the roleplay discussion thread. Thank you ;-)

"I wonder how long till Longtail gets back." Ali wondered aloud.

"I am wondering the same thing..." - Cayso said. - "... and Ecco is right, we should get moving, at least, I should get moving. But it doesn't feel right, no idea why."

Mim looks at Cayso, "Any idea why you are feeling those things or what it may mean?"

Cayso looked up at Mim. - "I don't know... maybe I have never considered the idea of leaving someone behind as a good idea. Due to my past experiences."

Mim nods, "We can wait a while, and I'm sure anyway Cyrix would prefer we wait anyway." Mim said.

I think so, Ecco said. But if you want to go, I could go with you. I wouldn¥t mind. Sure, the fact to be in a big group with such a big longneck is saver. But if you really want to go now, feel free, I¥d follow your steps.

"I understand your point Ecco and thank you, but at least I want to make sure they are fine before we go back to my herd." - Cayso said, still seated in the grass.

Ecco nodded. Alright kid. You have a good heart mate, he said as he laid a hand on his shoulder. But remember that you have to follow your own goals as well. Ecco gave a little smile and stepped over to Cyrix. Do you think it will take them much longer to come back?

Cyrix shook his head at Ecco and replied, "I doubt it...in fact I'm willing to bet the only reason they are taking this long at all is that Longtail is hunting something...not to eat mind you, but just for the fun of it. Even a half sharptooth has to hunt." He then faced Ecco.
"But if you need to get to your brother then you may go, and we'll catch up as soon as we can. I don't want you to worry about us. You're brothers health is just as important as ours." he said with a warm smile.

Longtail was moving so slow that he was afraid even the smallest breath would give him away to the mother fast biter. He set the dead carcass down next to her and immediately tip toed away from the cave and the female fastbiter.

"So what do you want to do?" Diver asked looking at Cayso & Ecco.

I dunno, Ecco said as he lifted his shoulders. It¥s up to Cayso. He turned his head to face his friend. Do what your heart tells you, he said with a low voice. It will be the right.

Swiftclaw was some steps behind Longtail, he saw the kid Flyer delivering the prey and fleeing and he thought for a bit - "I really should do the same, a female with hatchlings to protect can be very fierce." - After that, the Fast-biter kept on walking as quick and silently as he could and left the prey next to the other one, close enough for the Fast-biter mother to notice them when she awakes. After some more seconds, he reached Longtail - "She really looks dangerous don't you think? I hope I'll be able to have a mate like her." - He then began walking deeper in the forest. - "We should go now Longtail, your hunting skills are exceptional, but your friends must be sick-worried about you."

Cayso looked at Cyrix and Ecco - "I say... I'll wait just a bit more, after that I'll return to my herd. Ecco, you can remain here if you wish mate, I'm sure you'll have a good time if you go to the Great Valley."

Mim nodded, "Waiting a bit longer should not hurt." She said.

"You are right... " - Cayso said, bowing to the Raibowface. He is still asking himself if it is a good idea to wait some more, but it may be too dangerous to go away by himself. He sat down again, to wait for Longtail and Swiftclaw to return.

No way bro. You won¥t get rid of me so easy, Ecco said and cuckled. Remember as we met? I promised you that I¥ll never leave you. And I won¥t leave you now either. Especially in this hard situation of your bro. So, just let¥s wait for the others now and then go to bring the nightflowers to your brother.

"Thank you mate, and you are right!." - Cayso said smiling. - "We are really close to complete this journey." - The kid stood up again, taking a deep breathe as he did so.

Longtail smiled at the compliment from Ecco and flapped his wings as he replied, "Yeah, we should go. Besides...I do not want to be here when that momma fastbiter wakes up."

~~~~

Cyrix smiled as he turned around.
"Don't worry Longtail will be here in a moment or two...even he knows it's not wise to make us wait too long."

Darkness chuckled.
"Are you sure he's not doing anything stupid...some hatchlings get ideas that they can do anything...when given the chance."

"Mim nods, "Let's hope so." She said. "And it would be safer for us to travel as 1 group instead of as 2 groups." Mim said.

"That certainly does sound true." Diver said.

"Yah, I can understand that." Ali said.
