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

"I see this as a ulimate punishment, he really tick me off when he said Wizzin Pet... I was called that a few times before when I was friends with the Stripetail I knew and I just saw red at them and try to mega flare them for calling me it. But Stripetail suggested turning them into pet dragons instend the one I knew so I did when i was called it" Bahumut gave out his reason "Make them lose all memiors and their soul washed away replaced by a simple minded little pet dragon." Bahumut told him

"7 including this one. They are most likely found in parts of this planet which people in familes keep very quiet and do not speak of it outside their families." Bahumut simple answered him

"Seriously there isn't many begged for their lives and in exchange they will work for me for 10 years and under my teachings I changed their ways and became that of a evenly good and that why there is only 7 that been turned to pet little dragons a life time curse that I could reverse but I don't bother cause they couldn't be changed so this was the only acceptable punishment, wash them with new life their owns lost and forgotton forever and replace by a tiny pet dragon that loyal to its owner" Bahumut spoke looking at the little dragon in Lurna's claw hand as she pat it gentle on the head then put Whitey back in the cage.

You are too easy on them. I would not be as merciful in a similar situation"incanur said, a shadow of anger on his voice. 'Do you wish to go back to the wizzin, Incanur? Then you have to be kinder...' Snowpaw said.

"Sometimes you think they can't change but in fact they can, you've just have to give then a time limit that good for them and for you. Which would help come up with a final conculsion that makes a final choose but sometimes actions is needed to be taken just like this little dragon, I saw that he would never want to change and that he would try to get back at Stripetail another way which could of destoryed Stripetail or even the foundation of the Wizzins." Bahumut told him calmly

"and while my child keeps a eye on you, if she reports back that you haven't changed to the degree that promising, I would personally deal with the matter and believe me there is a chance that my action would be the one right there. And no matter what others say I will take action, my choose is final when I made it." Bahumut spoke with a darken tone his eyes glowing red for a second which made incanur fall backwards and push himself away from Bahumut seeing the Dragon had shined a fearing look into him which never seen before. "When my friend the Stripetail I know returns to the living in your own dimension he will tell you the say thing I have said, he knows my powers go deeper then anything you seen, you've only seen the surface." Bahumut gave a warning to incanur.

He looks to Stripetail the eyes back to normal "I give him 1 year, by the end of the tourument, if he don't improve by then, I will deal with it myself" Bahumut told him his voice this time only heard by Stripetail who could see that Bahumut was very serious about this which in a time of a year could be enough if incanur willing to try to change.

Lurna watched and knew her own fathers powers are far greater even he uses power unlike the wizzins powers the wizzin couldn't understand. since it falls into a different area of magic and non-magical terms unlike anything they seen before. she just thought one thing 'Underesitmating my father would be a very foolish mistake' she thought to herself looking at Whitey in the cage.

"He must change by himself Bahumut. He is very set in his ways, and he will not be cowed into changing, no matter what you do, or I do for that matter"Stripetail replied softly. "If you are looking for rapid change, you will be disappointed. He has been this way for hundreds of millions of years, he has a good side, but it is mixed with a stern and unforgiving demeanor.That is simply how he is."

"I see, I gather some things take longer. But Stripetail this is one warning if he steps over the line 3 times then thats it. I will only give him 3 chances no more no less. He might not make any thing happen that cross that line for many many years. so in that way he will know there is a fair warning to what the line he should not cross" Bahumut stats to Stripetail "Do you agree to those terms? 3 strikes then his out?"

Very well. But he must do 3 inexusable things, by my standards." Stripetail replied. "After all, i am his boss, as well as his brother. Now Icanur has mentally indicated to me that he wishes to talk with you, privately." He said to Behumut.

"Very well, 3 inexusable things by your standards I accept" Bahumut creates a scroll and hands it to Stripetail "this will bind the agreement, every Inexusable thing by your standards will appear on this scroll" Bahumut blows a little flare hits the corner and a symbol appears with a dragon looking like Bahumut on it "Once you've signed it the agreement is complete." Bahumut said to him and turn to Icanur walking over to him.

"You wish to talk to me?" Bahumut said to Icanur

Yes' Incunur said. "I will change at my leisure bahumut, not because of any threats you utter. I am grateful for your daughter's friendship, she has been a good friend, a true friend. But you have no right to threaten me. You are a child compared to me, I have seen many more ages than you have. I have seen little need to drastically change who i am. Rather it is the world around me that has changed so much" he motioned to the surrounding area and sighed. "The way I am has served me well for ages Bahumut, if that makes me appear cold and unfeeling, it is because I have seen so much. I have become detached from mortal feeling, because i have been immortal so long."

Bahumut nods looking at him "mortals gave me my life, you shouldn't treat mortals harshly. they outnumber immortals by unlimit numbers, they continue to grow and push on, one die after the other bring a continuing line of progress behind it. they might of slip back a few times in their generations but you've seen what this Federation is. They was able to do something that you couldn't do, they are mostly mortal only a very tiny few are immortal and to keep with progress they change their names, their own appearances so the form they once was is a memior and they are able to start fresh keeping into the time of life." Bahumut speaks to Icanur then turns to the opening

"You might think this weak or even foolish but I believe in the mortals, they are more powerful then a immortal can ever be, they can work without magic change to the winds that change. grow and die they know it comes and fear it not." Bahumut spoke out as Stripetail now listen to Bahumut. "the sun is born then dies so will this system in time, but the humans will live, they are the most remarkable beings, such imagitation, such invertion, so many new ideas feeling their minds. Some mind be power made but overall it the small mortals that make a differences. They are the priceless treasure that immortals will never understand... we stuck in one point in time, our age fixed in one point. Only those immortals that change their names and appearances changing who they are to fit in with normal mortal life has a true understanding to the nature of humans. the nature of a mortal life and why it the holy grawl of all" Bahumut said looking into the sun light as the sun lowers.

Q had showed up to listen and he whispers "your right, a simple human mortal life can't be understood by a immortal, us Qs are still wondering how they progress in some much that we lose track in what they do" Q then vanishes before anyone notices

Stripetail unferstood what Bahumut was saying: In order to maintain power(and relevance) immortals had to adopt mortal behavior, and accept that mortals played a vital role in the comtinuance of the cosmos.
_
"If they are so important, then why do we still exist. The federation has shown great intolerance to immortalkind" Incanur replied. "No, just your ignorance. You believed that by attacking the federation plabnets you were stopping the Borg.THe real threat was the extremists who nearly brought Dinoton to its knees. They were able to recruit more members because of your stupidity." stripetail replied coldly. "You needed to be brought down a few pegs brother. Your attitude, which had served you well in the past, did not in this instance. Your harsh feelings became your Achilles heel, your refusal to change left you out of the loop. I was very reluctant to change myself, but I was shown the consequences of failing to change. That is what you need, to be shown the result of being stubborn. " He pulled out the signed scroll. "You will be given 3 chances Incanur, if you blow all 3 you will be stripped of your immortality and powers forever, and sentenvced to live out your mortal years in prison." Incanur looked at his brother and then the scroll. "Any action by you that crosses the line will be recorded here" Stripetail said pointing to the blank scroll."are we clear?' Incanur nodded.

"Let me show you all something" Bahumut made a small symbol and a beam of light appeared and showed a image it was Incanur's own counterpart "From what I read in one of my books that one of the last dragons staying here wrote that he fell in 899AD the forgotten part of history the blank page as I call it. He went to Britian seeing that it was weakened and darken by fear and choas he took advantage of the mortal fear. since 619AD he ruled them till one came from over seas with a army, Edward the Conquer as the Bristish Isles know of him" Bahumut said to them as they watched

"A massive battle became and at the end of 899AD Incanur was stuck down by Edward the Conquer with the Sword of Enlighting light. As Edward the Conquer called it. Incanur died instantly his body falling to the ground, the body was buried under the stone where the sword sits in." Bahumut said and it showed a Church with the sword in the stone in present day. the words say

'here lays the unknown dark ruler of England, bring fear to all. the sword forever protecting England from the even of Magic, may no one believe in magic again. The Sword of Enlighting Light protect the people of England.'

the image disappears "all dimensions would have counterparts but me, I am created from hope of magic to live in this relam and put out a spell that stops counterparts of me being created making me one and only Bahumut King of the Dragons" Bahumut stats.

Stripetail hears this and now understand why there was no name of Bahumut in his dimension or any other his been in.

I see, so if anything happens to you, there would be no other Bahumuts to take your place. And that is why I have never heard of you before" Stripetaiol nodded.

"yes, I am the only Bahumut, the ones that saw this saw that there should be only one of me in one relam so they used a magic that only in this book at the last page, it called 'Ziclaic Jutyia Makical'" Bahumut said and stats the name "don't ask me why they called it that, but that the name of the spell it a musical magical spell that requires 400 magical beings to sing out the spell with the music. they managed to get everyone together they needed when I was hatched and casted the spell with a scuess. It classed as the most powerful magical spell to be casted in recorded magical history in this dimension and this spell is only unqiue to this dimension as I can tell from the look on your face" Bahumut said to Stripetail who went over to the book but as he try to pull up the cover he was staring to lift it only a inch then lets go.

"Heavy?" Bahumut chuckles

Yes it is.. very heavy. " Stripetail replied "Let me use my staff. The crysatal glowed and the stone cover flipped over with a loud thud. "Wow. that was... unexpected"Striptail said as Snowpaw tried to toucjh the first page as she did she was thrown bacvkwards and the book slammed shut and returned to the bookshelf. "apparently only you can open it, without being thrown backwards" Stripetail said to Bahumut, who was smiling .

"Yes it protected by magic that only allows me or anyone that born from me can touch and open it. they have to be strong and will the power of non-magic and magic such as me and Lurna." Bahumut said chuckling still.

Lurna went to it and picked it up struggling a little and put the book down and opens it she put a claw hand on the page then close it up again "As you seen from Lurna showing you, nothing happened." Bahumut said to him "many of these books have been placed under the same spell, which has magic and non-magical elements such as singing. it took 259 magical beings to cast the spell that over these books, what one couldn't do 259 of them could do, creating a magic that not even a wizzin can break, it magic more define then anything that was around" Bahumut said to him.

"Father can I show them the spell teleport swich song?" Lurna asked

"Yes" Bahumut smirked. Stripetail, Snowpaw and Incanur looked at them

Lurna sings out some words and then in a second they found they was switched around in different places in the room, where each was standing now in different points just like that without a flash and a blink it just happening. "Nicely done. that usally helps if someone attacks with a magical beam just swich them with you and they get hit by their own attack" Bahumut said with a grin

"Thanks father" Lurna smiled Stripetail try to say the words but he couldn't get the words out of his mouth. "Won't work, you need to be a dragon, since we have longer tounges cause of our snouts" Lurna said pointing to hers

In our dimension we don't classify singing as non-magical" Stripetail replied. The brand of magic, which is  known as Artiscus magic, includes instruments, singing, and dancing. We have some very skilled practictioners of the craft as well" He smiled.
