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

Windy smiled down at Rita, "Well then it's a pleasure to met you" she said.

She and Shane then both frowned a bit in curiosity and even Misty turned a little confused. Was there a reason beyond what she knew for her being here?

"Why, yes, of course" Windy said after a bit, "Why...did you?".

~~~~

Twiz nodded as well, "I was gonna ask Longtail if he'd teach me to swim as well as he can" the little flyer said, "it probably would help if I could fly and swim".

"Good luck Twiz, swimming can be difficult at first, but the idea is not to give up." - Cayso said to Twiz.

"When you learn... you'll get better chances for the future." - Racnar added, he then looked at Sky and asked - "Do you... know how to swim, Sky?".

Soul smiled at Windy and her mate as she said, "Well your daughter missed you was one of the reasons I brought her here, but the other....was to offer you a journey, back to where our herd now resides. Would you like to join us...and keep your daughter company? I would hope you would...she would miss you terribly."

~~~~

Longtail stood up out of the water and smiled at Greg, "Now that was fun!" he commented as he began to wash the blood out of his scales.
He then turned to Twiz and asked, "I'm sorry Twiz, did you want something?"

Sky smiled a bit to Racnar's question.
"Not very well, but...yes I can swim to catch fish. I suppose I could use a little more practice though."  she said aloud.

Twiz smiled at the encouragement, "Thanks guys". He then turned to Longtail, "Oh...I uh...was just wondering if maybe...you could teach me to swim too so that I could...then swim and fly since it sounds neat to be able to do both" he said with a smile.

~~~~

"Well...I thought my asking to see my parents was the only reason" Misty told Rita, "but Miss Soul makes it sound like there's another one too".

and there was! At Soul's words, Misty just looked stunned yet then slowly turned to her parents. Windy and Shane looked to eachother.

"That...that's possible?!" Shane asked, "I thought the rules on this kind of thing were pretty clear".

"Well, if we could" Windy went on, "then..." she glanced down to Misty and smiled, "of course we'd liked to".

"Yeah, very much so" Shane nodded.

"So are you bringing them back to life?" Rita asked excited.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Thanks for the lessons mom," Greg said.

Racnar looked at Sky - "If you are hungry, maybe we can... try and catch some fishes... for you to eat."

Cayso took a quick glance at his brother and smiled as he thinks. - "Sky is a very pretty Fast-bitter, Racnar is lucky and he needs all the happy moments he can get."

Sky smiled at the offer.
"Sure...I'd like that. Thank you Racnar." she said with a happy tone in her voice.

Dil smiled and nuzzled her son.
"I'm happy to help dear."

Ichy smiled as well.
"I'm proud too Greg. You still need a little practice, but you are definitely a natural!"

Longtail grinned broadly as he said "With pleasure! It indeed does help that you will be able to hunt on different levels."

~~~~

Soul smiled at Misty and Myra.
"As soon as Windy and Shane step outside this oasis...they will be as alive and real as me and my son Longtail."

"That's great!" cheered Rita.

~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'll join you next time you guys hunt," Chomper said, "And I'm sure my parents will gladly come too."

Racnar stood up and offerend his hand to Sky - "If you want, we can go get some fishes now..."

"Do you have some special prey in mind Chomper?" - Cayso asked.

"I'm thinking about that," Chomper said to Cayso. "My absolute favorite prey are flyers, but those are hard to catch."

"What about swimmers?" suggested Rory. "They aren't around this time of day," replied Myra.

"Spiketail perhaps?" suggested Greg.

Chomper smiled. "Yeah, that sounds good to me. What do you guys want?"

"Right now I don't feel picky, so any prey will be just fine." - Cayso said as he stood up with a jump.

Longtail turned and said, "Yeah! Spiketail sounds really...really good right now!" he then began to lick his beak in anticipation of the meal to come.

Darkscale nodded and replied,
"I'm up for a good hunt! So long as the Spiketails don't get the chance to fight back, those tails of theirs is supposed to hurt if you get hit by one."

Cloud giggled.
"Oh you worry too much big bro. just relax and let you feelings guide you."

Darkscale scoffed.
"Passafist."

Longtail laughed outloud at his brother and sister.
"Just get ready to go hunting you two. Geez...I still have a hard time believing I'm related to you three."

Sky smiled and nodded.
"Yes Racnar...that would be very nice indeed." she then stood up and turned to face Racnar for a moment. "If your chest starts to hurt just let me know...I'll make sure you get rested and are strong enough again before we continue...okay?" she asked wanting to make sure Racnar stayed well.

"I am ready to try some hunting too. And you shouldn't be too surprised Longtail, I bet we can all see how similar are your sibling from you." - Cayso said while grinning, and then he said to Darkscale - "There may be worse things than been hitted by a Spiketail's tail, like to be squished by a Longneck."

Racnar heard what Sky said, but he couldn't avoid blushing as he began thinking - "Oh wow, this is the first time my heart jumps this much... but it doesn't hurt me at all." - the kid took a little breathe before replying to Sky - "Don't worry, I'll let you know if something happens... thanks."

Twiz grinned, "Oh thanks Longtail!" he said happily before the other flyer had even begun teaching him. "Don't worry, I'm sure I'll pick it up easily and not be to annoying of a student".

He'd been about to get worried, like he always was, when the hunting of flyers was mentioned in just that he'd have to keep an eye out if he ever did meet back up with his father again it wasn't in one of his friend's hunts, but as they changed the subject to spiketails everything seemed to be ok.

~~~~

"Really? It's that easy?" Misty asked, "Then...how come everyone doesn't just...not be dead?".

"I'm sort of surprised we'd be allowed to do this" Windy chuckled a bit, "I mean, I would think someone somewhere would have a problem with this, though I don't know why".

"But isn't it great?" Rita asked. "You'll have your mom and dad again!" But then Rita remembered something. "Um...Ms. Soul," she said, getting slightly sad, "Could we find my mom too?"

"That...might be why" Shane admitted with a smile, "before you know it everyone will want in on this".

"Oh but we have to find Rita's parents too so she can be happy like me" Misty said.

"They have to be around here somewhere" Rita said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, just for a joke, Greg asked his mom "How did Longtail taste?" he asked jokingly.

Soul flapped her wings as she took to the sky and looked around for Rita's mother.
"I assumed this would be easier than this, but with so many former spirits here...it might be harder than I thought...to find...oh...wait!" She stopped her sentence in mid flight as she flew down and smiled. "Well, well, I thought I'd never find you!" She spoke as she finally found Rita's mother in the massive crowd.

~~~~~

Dil looked at Greg for a moment before she began laughing aloud as she answered,
"He tasted....really good!" At this point Dil was laughing hard enough that she rolled onto her back trying to stop her laughing fit.

Longtail then frowned as he began to look around as if someone were missing.
Just then however Longtail felt a strong push on his back, strong enough that it forced him into the water face first.
'well...looks like she found me first!' Longtail thought with a scowl. As he stood up he could hear laughter coming from the shore and sure enough upon turning to face where the laughter was coming from he could see Pearl sitting where he was standing moments ago.

Pearl couldn't help but laugh at Longtails face.
"miss me?" she asked innocently as if nothing had happened.

"Aw, the love flyers are back," Chomper smiled.

"Oour daughter likes to fight, doesn't she?" Diamond asked Gem.
