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

Insane Cafe 3: The Curse of the Haunted Hotel

The Tourist shrugged since the desk was not manned, "Must be full or busy.  Come on." The Tourist said and let the group minus Velma outside, He paused at the door to turn to Velma, "if anything unusual happens give us a call and I'll move the tardis to your location, just use the emergency sequence." He said.  Sara put up the umbrella spell and the group went out to the tardis.  

"I wonder if I should move it.  Maybe to the top of the hotel as an extra penthouse or something." The Tourist said to himself.

"How about as a wardrobe or something in Velma's room." Ian suggested.  

"Hmm, that is an idea." The Tourist said.  "I'll give her call once we're back inside the tardis."

Mikoto walked down the steps for what seemed like the hundredth time that night. He hated to rely on someone else for anything. He spotted the Tourist's group, leaving the hotel and followed them out.

"Excuse me, I was wondering if you would lend your assistance to me," Mikoto said.

The group paused and looked at Mikoto.  The Tourist spoke up raising an eyebrow, "And what sort of assistance are you in need of?" The Tourist asked curious.

Cynder stayed quiet, not wishing to make the situation any worse. She turned and headed into the bathroom. Spyro was scrubbing himself off in the tub.

"That didn't sound very good," Spyro said, glancing up at her and frowning as he saw the tears on her.

"Well, we worked it out, I think..." she rubbed her face off.

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

"I just need a few parts and some tools..." Mikoto said. "And I can pay you if you'll accept yen."

Stripetail stepped forward. "It will take some time to adjust to things Scooby, but things have a way of working themselves out.. AND.. some of your new teammates just arrived.."He smiled.

Dixie went over anf sat down on the bed. Tears began dripping down her face.  Scooby's reaction had been far worse  that she had expected, and what made it worse was that he seemed to blame Cynder for it instead of her, she had been the one who had beeen curious about kissing, when they had first kissed,  the one who had first started the tongue-kissing,  and she had been the first to admit her growing feelings for the other. Cynder had been slower to come around, like a pupil learning from a teacher. But, as she reflected, there wa s relief there as well. Scooby now knew, and he had not broken off the engagement. He had even allowed them to go out on a date tommorow. True,, she wouldhave to pay penance tonight, but it would be worth it.
 Why should we have a sense of humor anbbout you trying to scare us half to death, Bulk said to B.'g. Then the door to thier room opened of its own accord, and as the three of them turned to look, the woman in white, the PIe-throwing ghost, appeared. 'Look, more guests to have fun with" She cackled in a voice that was thin and whispery, but full of mischief and malice. " i hope you enjoy blueberry, its my favorite" She cackled, as she threw ghostly pies at the three of them. Bulk and skull screamed in terror as they were struck in the face.

B.G. blinked in confusion as the pie plate slid off his face, leaving it covered in blue berry. He licked a bit of the sticky substance off his face. "Mmm, delicious!"

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

"Well, I'm almost finished here, than I'll go out and see what the damage is," Spyro sighed as he scrubbed off the last bit of mud. He leapt out of the tub and shook himself off.

Cynder leapt over to Spyro and wrapped her front legs and wings around him. Spyro returned the hug and the two of them headed out of the room.

Bulk and skull collaspsed in a heap. blueberry pie tricking downbthier faces. The gjhost laughed wickedly and vanished..
 Agumon rushed out of the room as he heard Bluk and Skull scream. "What's going on here/" He said alous, As stripetail came out. "Hello Agumon, I've been expecting you.." Stripetail smiled. the digimon turned at his name  A ring glowed in Stripetail's hand and shot out of it racing over and hooking itself onto Agumon's right claw. "What's this?' Agumon said looking at the ring, which glowed and then faded revealing a face with his outline now on it , in his yellow color. "You are now part of a team Agumon, a very special one, charged with finding out what is happening in this hotel." stripetail said. "Come over to room 416, and and meet some other members of your team..'
_
"Er.. can I bring Tai?" Agumon asked. "Sure, And Agumina as well.."

Deimos still had his pistol out in a ready stance. "Nick, should we arm ourselves and search for the killer? Both Kerzach, Ms. Swimmer, Mr. Bigmouth and I have weaponry."

Rime looked at Shaggy. "Shaggy, we need you go back to your mansion and bring our weaponry, no grenades but bring some ammo too."

_
Guys its a monsoon out there, and I am in no mood to get myself soaked again.. If you snuck weapons in , fine you can use them, but i'm not getting into any trouble with the ownership...Shaggy said. " Go up to Stripetail's room, if he's here.

"Sure, whatever you feel is fair." The tourist said,  "Mind if I scan it to see which parts you may need.  You may have missed a few things." The Tourist said.  


Seeing Veemon didn't feel like talking Velma shrugged and went up the stairs to her room.

Deimos looked at Briggins. "If he is not there, then what?"

Zachary went up to room 300 and knocked on the door. "Stripetail, we found 2 bodies in the downstairs closet."

Mr. Bigmouth and Ms. Swimmer ran to the 3rd floor closet and retrieved their weapons.

Rime and Dr. Zanasiu retrieved their armor from the 1st floor closet and put it on.

"Great, I'm totally unarmed." Dr. Zanasiu grumbled, as he was putting on his armor.

"Stay by someone who is armed. Even Zachary." Rime replied.

"Zachary?! He has no weapons."

Rime shook his head. "His extreme strength is his weapon. Being a Clydesdale automatically makes him at least 7 times stronger than even the strongest Human."

(OOC - The strength of Zachary comes from one of my Furry works (toned down for this RP - in that work, a fit draft Horse could be 20 times stronger than even the strongest Human). The line is verbatim from that work.)

"I've made this device before, so I'm sure I can handle it myself," Mikoto said. "It's just a simple contraption for draining the energy build-up of my suit."

He held up his arm, showing the white device strapped to his wrist.

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

"Don't you guys like blueberry?" B.G. asked, looking down at Bulk and Skull. He licked the blueberry off his face and then leaned down and licked at Skull's face like a dog.

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

"Apology accepted," Cynder said. "And I'm sorry we didn't say anything sooner."

"Well, I'm not," Spyro said. "If you had said something back when Dixie and Scooby's relationship was just starting, before they'd built up their trust in each other, things could have been worse."

The Tourist nods, "As long as you are sure.  & if your suit builds up dangerous levels of power maybe you should have that seen to.  Sounds like it may be a design flaw." He said thinking half to himself, "should be easy enough to redesign or modify.  Do you have a list of the parts you need?" He asked.  

Sara wasn't sure about the person but she'd not really met him so she'd wait to see what his actions said about what sort of person he was.  The others were somewhat mixed but remained in the background a bit behind the Tourist as they had been before.

"It's the prototype of another type of suit, so yes, it is flawed..." he hated admitting that there was one area where the Abarangers were superior to him. "But I have not been able to discover any way to permanently correct the problem with it. I don't have a list, but I can make you one."

He wasn't about to hand the Dino Minder over to him, the device hadn't left his wrist ever since the day he had found it... and if someone were to analyze it, they would be sure to find out just how dangerous it was and be suspicous of him for using it.

The Tourist nodded, "Field testing it I guess.  Make sure to get a list of the noticed flaws so the engineers and builders and look it over and make sure the next model doesn't have them.  And take your time to make the list, no hurry.  If you hurry you may make a mistake and forget something." The Tourist said smiling in a friendly way.

"Exactly," Mikoto smirked, it was quite convient for him to let the Tourist believe that for the moment. "Unfortunately, I'm cut off from the rest of my comrades at the moment, or I would have gone to them for help."

"Where are they?  Maybe you can get to them or someone can give you a lift." The Tourist suggested.
