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

Journey To Longneck Island

"Well lets not worry about that" Wayne smiled kicking some water at them.

----

Fours later the station exit the energy tunnel but as it exited two small fighters was heading to the small fleet of ships heading to the planet with the ex-prisoners on board.

Trin notice this and shouts in the Bridge "Exstend our shields around the ships and get all ships to attack the fighers and attack ship at once!" all the ships leave the space station and attacks the fighters from the alien race that Stripetail knew.

seven ships of Dinoton make fire mutliple blasts of phase pulses, the Rainbow Face ship fires large pulse of plasma at the ship and the human ship firsts energy balls and laser beams at the ship.

In a matter of minutes the attack ship is knocked out of control in a flaming wreack smashing into a moon blowing up to pieces.

"Nice Shooting" Stripetail said as they reached the planet. "apperently some creatures don't like your decison Trin". Stripetail and eva got on on a ship and flew into the atmosphere, quickly reaching the surface. Stripetail got out just as the other ships were landing. The former prisoners filed out of the ships, many looked thin and ragged, as his counterpart had. stripetail Spoke up" Congratulations wizards and sorceresses, you are free. Many of you have spent decades in that prison slowly wasting away magically and physically. Many of you were mistreated when you were arrested. That is all going to change. The Tri-Foundation Council has amended the laws surrounding magic. Magic has been made legal up to Level 2 Status. As All of you are Level 2 or lower, that means you will be permitted to use magic." Cheers went up from many of the prisoners. ' The Council has also initiated an investigation into your treatment, and all Dinotons responsible will be dealt with." More Cheers. "The magic community here has been greatly restricted by the anti-magic laws, and nearly all of you are far weaker magically then when you entered prison. But that will change. In order to recover from the long period where magic was illegal, I suggest a Wizard's Council should be held, headed by your most powerful and experienced wizards. This Council will attempt to revitalize the magic community here, recover historical spells and artifacts, and allow all of you to regain your former ranks. Id Anyone interested in being on the council?" A number of wizards and sorceresses came forward, including his Counterpart. He Came up to stripetail and Shook Paws with him. "I can't believe they actually released me. they gave me my staff back and apologized.Thank you so much." He turned towards the others and raised his voice. "alright everyoone I have an announcement to make"

Three Minsters stepped out of the ship all standing there with guards around them but more or less not in front just behind. All three listening to this hoping for the deeds that the ranks lower down done to the life forms.

First I want to thank my counterpart, Lord Stripetail, for convincing the Council to free us from captivity. I will join the Wizard's Council, evemn though my powers are not what they once were. Now many of you have suffered abuse at the hands of the Dinotons. I'll tell you what happened to me. When I was arrested, the Dinotons clubbed me in the stomach repeatedly, punched me in the face and were more or less beating me to death. but then they stopped . I have the scars on my midsection to prove it." he lifted up his shirt and his midsection was indeed crisscrossed with scars. It was not a pretty sight and it was a testiment to the ferocity of the Dinotons. he continued"I was groggy and winded, so I wasn't thinking clearly not could I see clearly. After a while they grabbed me again and dragged me on thier ship. " Stripetail said, rage in his eyes. They then threw me in a small cell and left me there to rot. Ok, so I had violated thier stupid laws 17 times, I could accept that I would be facing some prison time. But at that time, if you practiced magic,you were a target for beatings. Many magical creatures were beaten to death by Dinton guards, one of my friends suffered that fate at the hands of my captors. I witnessed it, it was just before they arrested me. I tried to revive him, but the Guards interfered. Had they not interfered, I would have been able to revive him. I was just below Level 1 Status at that time, an extremely powerful wizard. Yet they refused to let me help him. When I pleaded with them to let me save him, they beat me even harder. I have since learned that the Dinotons responsible are dead. Fortunately for them, because if they were here right now, I'd kill them persionally." he raged. "calm down Stripetail" a sorceress said. "You have survived your ordeals, we can begin to rebuild our lives."

Eva walked up to the counterpart "I've the one that stoped them from causing more pain to you 27 years ago. At that time I was a AI Eva. My name is still Eva but I've now no longer part of the machine. I am alive and will join Lord Stripetail in his dimension, I've got a little left of a energy that not magic based but I can't proform it since it classed to the Tri-Foundation Laws as Top Classifeid. I know little of it. But all I know that it far more powerful then magic itself to the one that able to form this energy. But to you..." Eva looks at the this dimension Stripetail.

"I helped in your freedom with Lord Stripetail but failled in that try to save you 27 years ago..."

"So it was you would distracted the guards? Thank you, they would have likely beat me to a pulp had you not intervened. The energy you're refering to wouldn't be called ZPE, would it? I heard about it in prison, never heard what the letters stood for, From what I heard, it was powerful enough to wipe out the powers of just about any wizard. Prisoners tend to gossip a lot, so I don't know how much stock to put in thier claims. Anyway, this energy is supposed to rival the powers of the sacred scrolls of Aestorica and that of the Wizzin. Personally, I think it's nonsense, only the most skilled wizards could hope to harness that sort of power."

The three was happy and left in their ship to the space station but Trin left inforamtion to Stripetail about the space station staying above the planet for a few weeks as the repair crews start repairing the damaged cities, towns, villages on the planet.

"No Wizard can... it not magic it matter. and it was powerful enough to seal a evil magical being level 1 into stone completely drained from her magic. You see magical beings only can make Ghost Point Energy stay for GPE. It not even as powerful to ZPE, Lord Stripetail had first hand sight of the power of ZPE." Eva said to him seeing it clear to talk about it a bit more but knowing little herself wasn't good enough for her she had little of it left but still had the power to cast one or maybe two ZPE.

Are You sure about that Eva? When I learned magic, I learned that Wizards could use matter magically by drawing the energy from the area around them. So Theoretically, it is possible to create this ZPE. In reality of course, that's a whole other matter. You need powerful spells in order to break down matter into energy, and those spells are known only by a few. In addition, the Dintons destroyed as many spellsbooks as they could get thier paws on, so the knowledge needed to create this Zpe may be forever lost to us." Stripetail said sadly.

"Zero Point Energy isn't magic based. no magical being can make it, only Ghost Point Energy which is matter but weaker then Zero Point Energy." Eva said to him knowing that it not magic based because of the energy is only made by the purest of hearts and clearest of minds.

Stripetail read her mind. "So the only creatures that could create this energy are good-hearted idiots?" he asked." The only way to have a clear mind is not think." He cracked. "That's enough Stripetail." Lord Stripetail said to him. "Eva and I are heading out." Very well then, my friend, but I expect you to attend the Council. Eva can come too if she wants."

Guan listens on to RipRap in facination, while Archer continues watching the dark lands, seeing nothing to cause them worry.

Soon, the group heads to the final post, a ridge above an entrance where most of the herds move in and out of the Great Valley.  Archer kneels and watches out at the canyon, looking for movements, but is unsure of what will be coming if there was movement.

Wayne was looking at the sky thinking of the ZPE that he could do. "Maybe I can use it to open a dimensional rift to Stripetail and Eva..." Wayne thought and looks at Ducky and Ali "Would you two like to come with me to make a surprise visit to Stripetail?" Wayne asked as he changed back to a dinoton putting the jacket and belt on.

Archer looks back at RipRap.  "What?  Of course not.  I've just been busy scouting the area.  Besides, you were having a great conversation with Guan."

Guan nods with a smile.  "That's right.  I never realized how much I learned today about so many things we never thought of here in the Greay Valley."

Archer takes a look back at the canyon and gets up.  "Ok.  We're done with our journey for today.  Now we can head back into the Valley."

"Hey welcome back, I was about to pop by to you using ZPE. looks like you beat me to the punch line" Wayne smile almost laughing

Eva walks up to him "Was you the one that put a level 1 magically being in rock?"

"Erm... yes... I was acting in self defence she came out of no where after I finished teaching students swimming pratice and she appeared and attacked I actted in self defence I swear... that was the first time I saw how powerful ZPE was really is. I throied in it learning to form it with clear thoughts and pourest of heart and then she appeared and that was and only time Used it to that extream" Wayne said to Eva freaked out a bit from the apporach then realised what he did "Oh great here I go... get pushed around by the slightest of things... god I get so nervous..."

----

RipRap walked down with Guan and Archer "Guan would you like to have the image cube of the three planets in my dimension?" RipRap puts his hand out with the cube in his clawed hand

Guan looks at the cube.  "You mean the planets of Earth, Dinoton, and the Rainbow Faces?  Thanks, RipRap."  He takes the cube and presses down, watching the image of the three planets.

Archer looks up ahead.  "I see Stripetail, Wayne, and the others nearby."

"I see them. should go down to them or just head to the water hole for a cooling off, I believe we all haven't eaten much all day and I think I could cook up some Fruit salid." RipRap said to them

"I agree," Guan says.  "I feel kind of hungry myself."

"You two can go on ahead," Archer responds.  "I have a few more things to do back at the sanctuary."
