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

"Move the grenades and firearms inside the castle." Strut said. Zachary lifted the crate of grenades and went over to the castle.

Dr. Kerzach, Mr. Bigmouth and Dr. Zanasiu grabbed their weapons and followed Zachary.

Rime had the detonator box out but it was not connected.

Rime, Strut and Deimos still had their weapons strapped across their backs.

"And lose dinner?" Sparx laughed. "Not on your life."

"Maybe you should try using the armor again?" Spyro suggested. "Maybe it's adjusted itself to you."

Wataru turned and disappeared into the dragon's mouth. She exhaled loudly as the group got closer, warning them not to cause any trouble when they got inside.

"Spyro and I won't have any problem sleeping on the ground," Cynder said.

"Well, the armor will get better," Spyro assured. "Scooby and Dixie said theirs were uncomfortable at first, but it's fine now."

"You have to say 'armor up' to activate the armor," Cynder turned to face the two aliens.

Zachary carried the crate of grenades into the dragon's mouth. Dr. Zanasiu, Strut and Dr. Kerzach were carrying the firearms. They too followed Zachary in the dragon's mouth.

"Nani, you'll need to drive the car at least 200 meters from the cafe." Rime shouted. The detonator box and garbage bag of mithril were at his side.

"I will be going over the procedure for demolitions. Pay attention. Once everything of value has been removed; we will evacuate everyone to 200 meters away and behind some rocks. That includes the car. Once everyone has been  evacuated. Rime, Strut and I will double check the cafe to make sure no one is left behind. Once that is done, Rime and Strut will connect the detonator box and initiate the countdown. The charges will be set off at the end of the countdown."

When they reached the end of the tunnel that was the dragon's neck, they found themselves in a regal entrance hall, illuminated by the torches which hung on the wall. Wataru pushed the large wooden door open and led them down the hall into a large room with a table at the far side, in front of a fire place. The werewolf and Frankenstein monster were sitting at the table in their human forms and playing chess. The fishman monster stood near a large window with massive curtains and was staring out of it.

"Welcome to Castle Doran," the werewolf chuckled sinisterly.

"You can sent that stuff down in the corner," Wataru said to the group.

-----------------------------

"You can also use magic with the rings," Cynder added, hoping that would thrill the aliens and make up for the let down that the armor had given them.

"Just focus and say whatever you want to happen," Spyro said. He raised his front paw and pointed it at a pocket of empty space. "Fire."

A tongue of flames shot from his ring traveling a few feet before it burned out.

" Angel looked at spyro with Curiousity. Her armor was in a light pink color, while Stitch's was bright blue, the hemlets they were wearing were smaller than those of the four other team members, but that was largely due to thier size in general.. Stitch and Angel were the smallest of the six of them..

' Merlin looked at him. "Leave that to me, my friend. I need to get back in the habit of using magic again.." He chuckled a knowing chuckle..

"Which means I wouldn't have lasted twenty minutes in there either," Sparx chuckled nervously. He glanced over at Spyro, who gave the dragonly a very cold glare. "Right, I think I'll go get myself some mithril. Can't leave here empty handed."

"This place is nice." Dr. Zanasiu said.

"We can enjoy this place later." Zachary replied, placing his crate of grenades in the corner farthest from the fireplace. "Right now, we've got to help pack."

Dr. Kerzach, Dr. Zanasiu and Strut set their weapons in the same corner.

They then left Castle Doran. Strut was standing guard over the car and 2 backpacks of Mithril near it.

Dr. Zanasiu grabbed 2 fist sized pieces of mithril lying on the ground and stuck them into his pockets. "Get as much of this weird metal as you can carry." He then grabbed 2 marble sized mithril fragments and stuck them in his pockets.

Mr. Bigmouth was stuffing as much mithril as he could fit inside his leaf pouch.

Dr. Kerzach pulled out a soda can sized piece of mithril from underneath the burnt remains of a table. He stuffed it into his lab coat and started looking for more.  

Rime then entered the cafe. "I've got about 200+ pounds of mithril. We'll keep half of it and use the rest to help rebuild the cafe." he whispered to Dr. Zanasiu.

Rime then turned to everyone else. "I assume that Deimos has briefed you all on what we will be doing once the cafe has been stripped down."

"Time to clear out?" Ducky asked as she dropped the last of the mithril she had into the hat.

"Me think so." Petrie said.

"It does indeed sound like it is time."  The Tourist said looking at the others present.  Ducky offered his hat to him.  He put the hat on the ground, the bottom facing upward so none of the mithril would fall out.  He then quickly took his index and thumb and held the front, his other hand holding the hat so it would not fall, ran it around the hat, thus temporarily closing the storage area and put the hat on his head, well down so it would not come off in any wind.    Shall we all be off?" he said standing up.
