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

Encourage by Haeso making it, Katuksi tried and succeeded at the same. She smirked, "See, we're just awesome".

"Hey now, memebers of this troop have to be nice" Elliott said, "um, you two can be behind Miko...I guess".


Namita giggled, "We'll I don't think they're likely to instill the Dawn Patrol anytime soon" she said, she and Miko and experienced the Dawn Patrol earlier this morning when they arrived, if only she'd realized it had been Hathi she would have found it funnier.
Haeso lined up behind Miko. He was glad that he had made friends with Elliot and the rest of his "Troop"

Katuksi took up her spot behind Haeso.

"Alright Troops, let's move out...again" Elliott said, "Uh, we'll go...this way" he chose a direction and started them off marching that way.

Since he kept to whatever the back was, Ranjan now found he had Katuksi's tail to play with and giggled as he tugged it.

"Watch it kid" she said, giving him a just slightly annoyed rather than truely upset look. Ranjan giggled again but did stop...for the moment.

Haeso bit his lip trying not to laugh as Ranjan pulled at Katuski's tail.

"I thought laughing was against marching rules" Kauksi guessed half kidding as she saw Haeso hiding a laugh,

"So's talking" Elliott answered, "but...we're a kiddie troop so it's ok". There was enough not talking in his pop's real troop, Elliott decided, so here he would just drop that rule.

"So is being a little stick in the mud who can't take a joke." Haeso said playfully to katuksi.

"Then let's add hitting to my list of wrongs" Katuksi gave Haeso a playful slap. Elliott sighed and Miko rolled his eyes.

Ranjan giggled and, thinking he'd just complete the game, next gave Katuksi a playful hit.

Haeso playfully growled. "I'll get you back later for that" Haeso said playfully to her.  "Haeso couldn't hold in his laugh when Ranjan gave her a playful hit too. "I love this kid all ready" Haeso laughed. Katuksi was such a great friend and Haeso was having a fun time just messin with her.

Katuksi just leveled a playful glare at Haeso, "Oh sure, the boys stick together" she joked.

"So, besides chasing that man cub, what had you been up to since I last saw you?" Allison asked Khan curiously.

"Well, not much else here" Khan admitted, "but I was gone for a bit, sort of setting up a reputation and space in other jungles too, just because I'm that good" he smiled, "perhaps when you're up for extensive travel I should show you those spots too".

"And you'll show those jungles your new queen," Allison smiled affectionally, kissing Khan.

"Oh, don't give me that. The only reason I'm siding with him is because he's hilarious" Haeso said giving Katuksi a playful nudge.

Katuksi just giggled.

Elliott shook his head, his troop was so not like his Pop's, but then they were kids so nothing said they had to be mature and ridged soldiers right this very minute.

"Of course" Khan smiled after returning the kiss, "be happy to, and I know they'll be that more inclined to listen to me if they know they have to answer to you too".

~~~~

"So I'd ask what you've been up to Louie, but it seems like it's probably quite a story" Namita smiled.

"Yeah...I left my palace, mainly cause Baloo destroyed it...." Louie laughed, "But now I've been just traveling the jungle."

~~~~~~~~~~

"And the jungle's new prince and princess," Allison continued. "I'm hoping for 1 boy and 1 girl."

"Yes" Namita laughed, "I heard about the parties".

~~~~

"Nice and even huh?" Khan smirked. He had to admit he didn't know alot about girls, but then figured that's where Allison would probably come in with that motherly sense and all.

~~~~

As they walked on, the kids caught the tail end of this talk. "Palace?" Miko asked.

"Oh yeah" Mowgli said, "King Louie's old place that Baloo and some of the others use for a dance place or something".

"Sounds neat" Miko had to admit.

"Yeah, but I don't think they'd tolerate a bunch of kids hanging out, I only got in last time 'cause Baloo was there" Mowgli said.

"Well they've gotta be gone sometime, maybe we could look at it when the other adults aren't there, you know since abandoned monkey palaces aren't seen in every jungle".

To an extend they could be, but Katuksi didn't know this.

"A palace? No way! That sounds way past cool we have got to check this place out" Haeso said getting all excited about seeing it.

"Ok, ok, but we'd have to make sure the adults are all gone" Mowgli said, "I don't know If I'm suppose to be giving out the location".

"Aw if there's any trouble we'll just run them off" Katuksi grinned.

"Alright then Mowgli, you lead the way, since you know the way" Elliott said, letting the man-cub get infront of him. "But if my Pop comes by, dart back behind me so it still looks like I'm leading" he whispered. Mowgli nodded, "Right".

"And when the cubs are born, we'll teach them everything about ruling the jungle," Allison added.

"With a bit of help, of course" Shere Khan smiled, "since my families known about that stuff for generations, having held the rule for generations". Truth be told he wasn't sure how far back it spanned, but he guessed it was probably a very long line, and that's what his mother had told him.

"This may seem cub-bish," Allison began, "But could you tell me a story?"
