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

Scarface was sleeping, but he felt Alis tail on his body. That made him feel warm, comfortable. In sleep he talked: Don¥t worry to much about me, see that you get the nightflowers, with a very silent voice.

Cayso heard what Scarface said and replied - "We will get the nightflowers, but we will not let you in this condition, we are all getting the flowers together." - Cayso then made the same thing Blue-Eye has been doing and grabbed a large leaf and place it over Scarface's neck injury, not making too much pressure.

"We all will get here, you with us." Ali said.

Blue eye nodded.  "Yes and we'll let you have some of the night flower, though it may taste icky to sharpteeth it'll help you." He said.

Scarface breathed slowly now and was in a deep sleep.

Cayso's hands on Scarface's neck allowed him to notice how the grownup Fast-bitter began breathing more calmly, this made Cayso to relax for a bit. - "Now all we need are the others to come back with that moss." - He said to Blue-Eye. Cayso then began looking around, to try to see where are all the others, specially Ecco.

Longtail took a deep breath, and coughed as he said "E-Ev-Everyone...just...try....to...to...r-relax...scar...face...will be okay...he...just needs....the night...flower...w-we must...keep...going..."

Cyrix frowned as he gathered more moss to stop Scarface from bleeding. "Even now...when he's sick and close to losing his own life, and putting others before himself. How blessed am to look after such a caring child."

Mim returned carrying more moss and dropped it near where Scarface lay.  "Lets get started. Who wants to do what?" She asked looking at those present then she looked at the leaves that had been used to stop or slow the blood flow, "Good thinking, using leaves." She said.

We just should stop his bleeding, fast. That we can go on searching for the nightflowers soon enough. I can carry him the way than. So he took some moos and began to put it into his wounds.

"Mim, can you help me to apply some moss on the neck injuries?" - Cayso waited for Mim's reply while still holding the leaf that covers Scarface's neck wounds. - "I agree that Scarface should be carried, so he will not overdo himself, and if Longtail is right, then the sooner we get to the Nightflowers, the sooner we will be able to save his life as well."

Mim nodded "can do." She said and grabbed 2 bits of moss as she settled down near Scarface.  She started working on putting moss on the worst injuries and wounds first.  "I agree, he should be carried.  Maybe the strongest can take turns carrying him so they do not get to tired." She said as she worked.   She worked around and slowly so anyone who had knowledge could also join in as well as working around those who were holding leaves and preventing his wounds from bleeding, working as best as she could with them as well.

"I can help carry him also." Ali's mother said.  

"I hope he'll be ok.  He does seem nice." She said, looking away a bit so she didn't see the wounds.

Diver went to pat one of Ali's legs, "He'll get better, he certainly will, just wait and see."  She said nodding and trying to console Ali and everyone else present so they felt better.

Blue eye kept the pressure on the leaves covering some wounds, lifting them as Mim got to the wounds, after the wounds Cayso was helping with since those were more severe then the ones he had put leaves on.   He looked at Scarface, "You'll be better, you just have to rest a little."

Scarface gave a little groarn. But inside he felt, that the moos did it job. Well, okay. I agree with that, Ecco said. So, if you want to carry him, because you are the strongest of us, than you can. He said to Ali¥s mother.

Littlefoot walked over to Ali. I hope he will be okay soon, he said and looked with a sad look to the ground.

Ducky brought more and more moos, to the others. And Cera and Petrie helped as well.

While still holding parts of the leaf until Mim finishes with Scarface's neck injuries, Cayso listened to what Littlefoot said, he took a look at him, not saying a word. He then looked back at Mim - "It may be a good idea if Ali's mother can carry Scarface, it should be easier for him since he will not overdo himself again.... and I, may do some scouting perhaps together with Hunter, unless Ecco thinks otherwise." - This is not the first time that Cayso travels with Leaf-eaters, and this is not the first time that he has to fight for those Leaf-eaters's and for his own sake, but it is still hard for him to not try to think in everybody else's opinion about him... specially after situations like this one, maybe fearing of the others will try to banish him, since he knows he may not be able to gather the Nightflowers on his own, and with that, to lose his brother.

Cyrix walked over to Onyx and said "Would you care to fly ahead for us and make sure we aren't ambushed by fastbitters or something worse."

The black flyer smiled and said "No problem..." Onyx turned to Ali's mother and repeated what Cyrix had just suggested "I'm going to fly ahead of us and scout out our path. is that okay?"

Ali's mother nodded, "That does sound like a good idea." She said.

"Better then being surprised it certainly is." Diver said.

"Plus we can get some advance notice on what sorts of things are ahead." Mim said.

Cayso took another deep breath before asking the huge Longneck - "Is it possible then if you may help us carry Scarface?, that way we can get the nightflower faster." - If Ali's mother would agree, Cayso was already preparing himself to help Blue-eye to get Scarface over the huge Longneck. He then saw Onyx taking off to do some scouting. - "I just hpe we won't get any more problems now... because I don't know if we are in any shape for more fights."

(ooc: Since Mornai's not given me any indication he'll take his chars back and Ali's mother is being talked to I"ll have her respond)  

Ali's mother nodded, "I can easily carry him.  You fast biters do seem friendly, and you do travel with non sharpteeth.  Do you want to tie him down like I saw you did the young flyer or would one of you rather hold him down?" She asked. She squatted down as low as she could she they could more easily lift the wounded fastbiter onto her back.

Blue-eye was looking over Scarface to see the best way to pick him up and carry him without causing anymore injuries or make the present ones worst.  

Mim walked over and looked down at him studying the problem.  "Maybe if we use our arms so his weight is evenly distributed and slowly lift him.  We would have to slowly work our arms under him." She looked up, "What do you folks think?" Mim asked looking at the others.

"I think what Mim says makes sense, if you need more arms, I can help too." - Cayso began feeling a bit better, he can now feel they are all getting closer to their common goal, and there is no way somebody could stop them now. - "Then let's get Scarface over Ali's mother back... I think it would be best to hold him down instead of tiing him down." - That would be due to the fact that it would requiere much more wines to tie Scarface into Ali's mother back than the required to tie someone like Longtail to Mim's back.

Good idea, Ecco said, and went closer to Scarface to offer his help.

Mim went over to where Scarface was to help also.  "Ok, who's going to help to lift him, and is someone going to ride on Ali's Mother's back to try to keep Scarface from moving around much of falling or sliding off?" She asked.

Diver remained silent, looking around a bit, since she was to small to do any of those things.

Who cares now, Ecco asked. Just let get him as fast as possible on alis mothers back. He was laying his hands under Scarfaces back and looked to the others. Commetn, Cayso, Mim Cyrix, help me to lift him up.
