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

"Shakila, I sent one of those hotel people to tell you that I had some information on Dragonstorm things and all that sort of stuff" the young feline told them back from outside before waiting for a response.

"Come in," Spc. Crota said, opening the door.

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

Alfred looked at the bag. "We ordered a crab cake sandwich with some fries and a broiled tilapia sandwich with fries," he said over the phone.

A waiter bought another bag to the table. Alfred opened it. "And a broiled soft-shell crab sandwich. See you in a bit!" he added, hanging up the phone.

Shakila walks into the room and places her laptop onto the table before turning to Spc. Corta "Okay, Aimee told me to meet everyone here and I thought that I should also tell you what I had found out" she motioned to her laptop with what she had open "I've got quiet a few files on there which I borrowed from my boss, something tells me that he's part of this somehow, as there has been some saved files that mention a Lab 101 along with Dragonstorm as well as Gabriel woman as well, the one that Aimee wanted to know about...."

She placed her paper bag upon the table as well and pulled out another piece of sushi and took a bite out of it.

"Wait, isn't Lab 101 supposed to be somewhere near here?" Spc. Crota asked.

"It is; I remember James talking about it before. We'd better tell him once he and his friends return from the city," Neville said.

"In any case, make yourself at home."

Sgt. Masters got off the couch and slithered into the bathroom. A few minutes later, he returned and coiled back up on the couch. "Hans! Werner! Have you found anything else?" he asked.

"Oh, don't you worry about that, I already have my own room here....it is rather nice" Shakila told him with a small purr as she turned back to her laptop again "What is Lab 101 anyway? And....what exactly are these Dragonstorm things? As you could say, I am getting rather curious about it all"

Alfred, Dr. Zanasiu, Cobalt Leader, Dr. Bailey and the two Cobalt soldiers had finished their meals.

"Would you like some dessert?" the Ferret waiter asked.

"No thanks," Alfred replied.

Dr. Zanasiu shook his head.

"I'm full," Zachary replied.

"Not really," Cobalt Leader replied.

"I'll have a chocolate cake," the female Cobalt soldier said.

"I'll take a mango pudding," the Mongoose Cobalt soldier said.

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

"Dragonstorm is an underground project that was discovered during the Pelvanida Attack - which I assume you've heard about," Neville replied with a yawn.  "We were tasked with taking down Dragonstorm but as you can see, they have managed to escape," he added.

"Oh, if you're coming with us, you may want to take a weapon," Spc. Crota said.

A few minutes later, the waiter returned with the requested desserts.

The Mongoose dug into his mango pudding only to grimace.

"Is it that bad?" Cobalt Leader asked with a laugh.

"The pudding tastes like s---!" he whispered.

The female Cobalt soldier tried the chocolate cake. "It's okay," she said.

"A weapon? No offence, but I'm more of a computer kind of girl, not a fighter" Shakila told him back, looking back to her computer "Never used a weapon before anyway, but like I had said, I'm more a computer kind of girl"

The Mongoose Cobalt soldier choked down the rest of his mango pudding.

The female Cobalt soldier ate the rest of her cake.

"Check please," Alfred said.

The waiter came over and handed him the check.

"So how do you guys want to split this up?" Alfred asked.

(OOC - Noname loaned Cpl. Stern to me for a week only.)
(OOC - Is Aimee heading to Neptune's Bounty?)

Cpl. Stern followed Aimee down the streets of Lincoln City. He glanced around at the throngs of people, keeping an eye out for trouble. He kept a hand near his sidearm in case anyone tried something funny.

He thought about Shakila. Even though she helped get information; he still wasn't entirely sure if he could trust her.

(OOC: Ah, sweet as, as for Aimee, I would say that she would be heading towards Neptune's Bounty.....which incidently, reminds me of a place in the game BioShock :lol: )

Aimee continued to walk down the street, as she too was thinking about Shakila, but mainly, of what she had shown her, especially in regards to Gabriel that she has also been in contact with another lab other than the one that she had come from.  However, she was still a bit distressed that she could not find any information on Kain at all, it was almost as if he hadn't existed in any sort of documents at all.

She looked over to Stern, but yet, kept quiet at the moment as she continued to walk onwards still, not even sure on where the restaraunt was herself, but she just wanted to walk regardless.

Alfred looked at the bill. "It comes out to roughly 290 dollars with tip," he said.

"And with." He counted everyone up. "7 people. If we split it equally, everyone has to pay $37.14," he said, writing down the calculations on a napkin.

Dr. Zanasiu, Zachary, Alfred, Dr. Bailey, the two Cobalt soldiers and Cobalt Leader paid their share as well.

The waiter took the payment and left them all some mints.

Dr. Zanasiu ate one of the mints and picked up the food.

Dr. Bailey pocketed the rest of the mints.

"So what do you want to do now? Walk around the city or go back?" Zachary asked.

"We could always walk around the city with Aimee, Cpl. Stern and Dr. Landon," Dr. Bailey said.

"Speaking of which, where are they?" Alfred asked.

"Guess we should wait for them then," Alfred said. He sat on a bench outside the restraunt and breathed in the cool sea air.

"Hey anybody want some mints?" Dr. Bailey asked, taking them out of his pocket.

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

Cpl. Stern noticed Neptune's Bounty in the distance. "Aimee, there's that resturaunt, Neptune's Bounty," he said.

"On a side note, looks like we've got some stuff to discuss with Dr. Zanasiu," he added as they strolled down the streets of Lincoln City.
