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

"Night Chomper." - Cayso replied and then he also returned to the nest. - "What if someday I become someone like Greyclaw?" - Cayso thought to himself, but he quickly shook his head, trying to get that thought out of his mind, he kept on walking until he reached the nest and he layed down, trying to sleep again.

Vayne smiled.
"I miss you too, Larsa.  But thank you.  You're right."
Vayne said, smiling sadly...

As Longtail passed over Arius and Dante he waved back, and then faced Veil again.
"Well...yeah, I beat the bad guy....but I don't know...I still kinda feel like I failed...i did get my friends killed. I don't know what to think anymore..."

Pearl turned over in her sleep as she sighed with a grin on her face.

"You have a point," Veil replied.  The sharptooth flyer wasn't the best at small talk. "Want to go on a late night hunt? Would that cheer you up?" he asked.

"Just watch over the other belly draggers," Larsa said to Vayne. "Just don't let my death be in vain, ok?"

Longtail gave a small smirk...that quickly turned into a full blown smile. A midnight hunt did sound like a good idea, and the prey would most likely be asleep, so he quickly nodded his head and replied.
"Sure, a night hunt sounds like a great idea, so where are we hunting?" he asked with a quiet but cheery voice.

"I saw some longneck around these parts," Veil smiled. "I'm wide awake, let's go for it!"

Misty turned about in her nest, finding a more comfortable spot, yet unfortunately awoke due to rolling onto a loose branch. She looked up to the sky and noticed figures that seemed familiar getting farther away. She shook her head, those guys are gonna be tired tomorrow she thought, then remembered that night hunters were a common thing, even with egg nappers, so maybe it wasn't that unheard of.

She stared at the night circle as she contemplated wither she was too awake now to sleep herself or not.

A SHORT TIME LATER.........

"There's the longnecks," Veil said, pointing to the sleeping prey.

Longtail gave a cocky grin as Veil pointed out their prey.
He then said in a whisper "Oh this is going to be good! Which ones should we take out first? The hatchlings right, they would be the easiest to kill and take back with us right?"

"Correct," Veil replied. "Any maybe we could take some longneck eggs back for Misty, I'm sure she'd appreciate that. Let's go!"

He began swooping down towards the unknowing sleeping longnecks.

Longtail laughed quietly as he dove into the nest of sleeping longnecks and picked up two hatchlings with his talons. And as he turned to see how Veil was doing he wrapped his tail around a single, rather larger than normal egg as well.

He flapped back into the sky, high above the herd as the two hatchlings began to cry and scream when they woke up.

"This...could be a problem!" said Longtail aloud as he looked for Veil in the herd.

"I'll take care of it!" Veil whispered, quickly stabbing the hatchlings with his claws. The other longnecks were unaware of what had happened.

Veil also snatched up a hatchling. "Let's eat these when we get back, ok?"

Longtail gave a grateful smile and turned to head back to the sharptooth sleeping place, being sure to keep a tight hold on the egg he'd stolen.
"This was a lot of fun Veil, thanks for talking me into it!" he said as he picked up speed.

"Don't mention it buddy," Veil replied. "We should drop the egg near Misty's nest."  When they got back to the sharpteeth herds, Veil began digging into the longneck he caught.

In her nest, Misty's sleep story wouldn't be classified as a sleep-scare story (nightmare?) but it would have been quite depressing and discouraging if she was awake and it was real.

Nest after nest as she tried to grab something she was stomped and or threatened away...actually she was use to that being the case in real life too, but having a sleep story about it as well wasn't encouraging either.

Veil took the longneck egg they had caught and put it down near Misty, as he and Longtail continued eating their late night-stack.

When everyone woke up, Rita said "Oh, Longtail and Veil must have caught that egg for your breakfast," the girl sharptooth smiled to her friend

Cayso woke up with the first rays of the Bright Circle as it rose again in the sky. As he began looking to his surrounding, he saw that only his brother was still sleeping, his mother and step-father weren't there - "There may be hunting some food." - The kid said as he yawned and got up. - "I wonder if the others are awake by now." - He thought and began walking towards some rocks that were nearby so he could take a better look of the other herds.

"Morning Cayso, morning Racnar," Tyra waved.  "Yeah, I saw your parents go hunting."

Cayso looked and waved back - "Hello Tyra, how are you?."

Racnar opened his eyes and yawned, slowly getting up, he saluted at Tyra too - "Good morning Tyra. So Mom and Dad are hunting now? that sounds good."

"I'm good.  I'm just happy Kai's alive. I love him, and I'd hate to imagine the world without him. He's awesome," Tyra said.

"Want this egg for breakfast Misty?" Veil asked. "Longtail got it for you on on our late night hunt last night."
