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

Everyone goes to sleep and Eva left looking at the rain falling just 28 meters from the backpack and she starts to hum quickly to keep herself entertained as she looked at the corner of her eye at the sleeping lord.

" Good Morning Littlefoot.' Ali said softly. She looked around and saw  that she and Littlefoot were the only ones besides Eva who were awake. She went over towards Lord Stripetail. She touched him and felt pain flare through her foot. "Owww' She yelled waking Stripetail up. " Not a good idea ali," Stripetail said looking out the cave enterance. It Had stopped raining and he looked at his wrist " Time reamining 5 days 20 hours 5 minutes 00 seconds 4 minutes 59 seconds 58 seconds...' That was refreshing ." He Said As He streached.

I'm sorry Ali, but My centuries of magic use have created a natural barrier around myself, to protect me when I'm sleeping. Even though you weren't trying to hurt me, It still protected me. Your pain should subside shortly."

Eva looks back outside "Feeling that I have I don't quite understand... my systems can't seem to find matching answers..." Eva quietly said to herself.

"Is she alrght? she looks like she lost, do you think it could do with her feelings?" Littlefoot asked Stripetail

Most likely Littlefoot. She has become less and less like a computer and miore and more like a living creature. Living creatures need sleep, food, water, air, and love. Love is the strangest of these needs, when you are in love, it is like you are in pain when you are not with your beloved."

"Oh I see... is that why she been looking at you before I went to see then when I woke up? I think she haven't took her eyes off you since you started sleeping till now" Littlefoot said and went to Ali before Stripetail could reply leaving him looking at Eva.

Eva walks near the exit of the cave and her arm fades and she pulls back looking at the pack "30 meters..." she muttered "can't even walk freely for a range of my choice..." Eva walks back and sits on a rock "Touch and feel... something that my holo programs and data banks wasn't propare for... I guess that my systems are more like life then computerized data. I've becoming something that any AI couldn't do before me..." Eva said to herself unaware Stripetail listening in

' Is that so?' Stripetail cast a strange look at Eva and then walked over to Littlefoot. " That very well could be the case. It is said that children can see things adults cannot." He thought. " It's possible Littlefoot. Now go play with your girlfriend." he smirked.

Littlefoot shys a bit before going to Ali to have some fun with her in the cave to look deeper in it.

"Don't go to far in the cave. there a saying that means a warning. 'deeper you go the lost your soul is' that means a maze of tunnels that you could get lost in" Eva warns them

"We won't we will just go to that water hole" Littlefoot replied and heads there with Ali. Eva looks at Stripetail "Never heard a worrying AI... well I am now get feelings that I can't seem to understand half of them... would you be able to help me out? Stripetail?"

"Right... here is one that I can't get rid off... I get a strange feeling that I have no idea what it is... but it comes around when I'm looking at you..." Eva said unsure with the feelings you feels.

" It could be any number of feelings Eva, from concern to care, even to love." Stripetail looked at her with a sad smile on his face." I believe what you are feeling is love, Eva. Don't you feel the same way  towards Grant?"

"I don't seem to have any strange feelings for him... only a feeling to help him out in anyway possible..." Eva said looking at him "If this feeling of love is causing you pain... I'm sorry..." Eva looks away feeling like she caused pain in him feeling guilt

So You merely care for him then?' Stripetail said. " I see. These feelings of yours do pose a quandry for me. On one paw, i have not been in love for milennia, and I still mourn the loss of Snowpaw. But on the other paw, she would want be to be happy...' he trailed off.

As RipRap had said, the storm had moved to the side of the Valley, but it still managed to drop some rain in one section of the land, and the wind continued to blow pretty strong.  Thankfully it was a false alarm.

Archer watches on from his sanctuary.  Since after his encounter with RipRap, he hadn't seen the Dinoton since.  Perhaps he already left to find his partner somewhere in the Mysterious Beyond.  But because he is still too new at this, he can never be sure of anything.

"that is true..." Eva looks at him "Snowpaw... did you say, that name appeared in my data banks... my creator when I first came online was talking to thin air saying Snowpaw a few times... does that mean anything to you?" Eva asked him.

----

Sten looks outside the cave then looks at his device "RipRap coming" He muttered to himself.

"I think I could show you the image file..." Eva said and put a hand out a holo video appeared of the creator of her talking as she first came online.

"It done as you requested Snowpaw... could I ask why that I build such a AI that could expand in such a way that be more unquie to any that ever been built?" the creator asked with the image showing no one there in front of him. Like he was talking to himself.
