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

Sgt. Masters heard Shakila and shot the offending soldier several times, killing him.

Dr. Zanasiu crawled over to the dead soldier and took his shotgun. He checked the magazine. It was full.

He shot a Dragonstorm soldier who tried to pick off Neville as he was reloading.

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

Alfred shot another Dragonstorm soldier that tried to cross the street.

(OOC: Oh noes! You killed him! XD)

Shakila gasped a bit as the human soldier fell down dead in front of her, breathing a tad heavily, still realizing that she was still alive, but of course, that didn't stop as another soldier decided to offer assitance to at least either caputre or kill the feline.

"Oh, you have got to be kidding me...." she muttered as she turned and took off into the building that was still under construction, followed by said soldier, whom picked up the dead soldier's rifle and took the bullets from it before he too entered the building.

Shakila rushed through the building, having no idea on what to do....until she saw something that could work, a nailgun, picking it up along with a bunch of nails and stayed quiet.

The soldier walked past the room that Shakila was hiding in as Shakila stepped out quietly as she placed the nailgun to the soldier's neck, pulling the trigger at least twice or so, nails going into the soldier's neck, yet, it caused Shakila to stumble back a bit from the force of the nailgin, not used to using one herself.

"Uh, I..." Shelton was at a loss of what to say.

One of the soldiers withdrew a lock pick and pulled Shelton's arms out from his shirt. "Let's get you uncuffed."

Everyone was silent when they saw Shelton wasn't wearing handcuffs.

"Simpson..." asked the leader cooly. "Why aren't you cuffed?"

Shelton looked from his wrists to the leader and back. "Er..."

The leader punched him across the face. "Dammit, Simpson, I want an answer!" He grabbed Shelton by the collar and shook him. "Half of my men died saving you! Some of those men I've been friends with for years! You worked with some of them!"

Shelton tried to get to his feet, but a soldier kicked him down.

The leader drew his pistol and pointed it at Shelton's head. "How much did they pay you to switch over, Simpson? Did they have to ask twice?"

Shelton held his hand up. "I'm sorry! I warned you not to try and rescue me!"

"Well, I wish I'd listened to you." The leader clicked the safety off.

Stern saw that yet another furred female was in trouble. He didn't know this one, but if she was anything like Aimee, he would have to save her from Dragonstorm as well.

"Great, just what I need" He thought, and soon, his thoughts turned to action as he raced to put himself in between Shakila and the line of fire.

Shakila was now rather proud with herself with what she had done, deciding for now, to keep the nailgun on her as she just hid out in the building for the time being, only having a very rough idea on how a nailgun actually worked.

Aimee continued throw a few more bricks, one striking and killing one soldier with a lucky shot as it sruck his neck, since Aimee wasn't quiet aiming for anywhere in particular, just hoping that she would actually be able to kill some of the soldiers around.

Alfred, Dr. Zanasiu, Neville, Hans and Cobalt Squad opened fire, cutting down the remaining Dragonstorm operatives.

"That's the last of them," Spc. Crota said, holstering his pistol.

"Yeah, but I'm out of ammo," Alfred said.

"Well, shall we see what's in this truck?" Zachary said, getting out of the ditch.

Dr. Bailey and Dr. Zanasiu followed him.

Shakila remained hidden still, even after the gunfire had stopped, not really trusting anything yet and wanted to play it safe by just hiding still.

Aimee just stayed by the pile of what was left, of bricks as she looked around "Where do you suppose Shakila is? I mean, she was over there last time I believe" she told whoever was listning as she motioned over to the other construction site.

Corporal Stern ran over to Aimee, eager to see if she was alright. A quick glance revealed that she was fine.

"Aimee! Thank goodness you are- why did you do something so stupid?!" Stern went from relief to anger at her stupid move in under five seconds. "You could easily have been killed, you know. We can't keep bailing you out every time, girl."

Stern was correct in saying this. Aimee had been saved by him, although she was far from helpless.

Aimee just retaliated with a quick little snort, looking at Stern for a moment or so "A simple thanks would've surficed...." she grumbled, looking to him once more before looking past him "If you'll excuse me, I'm going to get Shakila back...." she then told him as she walked past him, heading towards the other construction site.

Meanwhile, Jayden had finally returned to the group, having a quick look around as he rubbed his temples "Okay....what just happened here? Dead bodies and all?" he decided to ask anyone in listning range to him "I've already had enough trouble before, covering up what had happened in the hospital as it is"

Shelton was still on the ground, shaking when they got to him. "Damn it, he was right," he stammered to no one in particular. "I betrayed them, I never thought of it as betrayal, but I did. And now I a bunch of them just died for me." He got to his knees. "I know they're the enemy, but they trusted me!" He winced as he forced himself to his feet. "I deserved to get shot. He had every right to shoot me."

Jayden just groaned slightly as he then walked over to Shelton, crouching down "Okay, what are you actually talking about? What guys? Because I am at a bit of a loss as to what had happened in the time that I was gone"

Meanwhile, Aimee entered the building, only to have Shakila step out with the nailgun aimed at the vulpine.

"Whoa, easy there, it's only me" Aimee told her.

Shakila gave off a sigh of relief as she lowered the nailgun down "So glad it was you and not one of those guys from the truck"

Aimee just chuckled slightly "Yeah, I know the feeling to see a familiar face again, come on, everyone's waiting" she told her as she walked off.

Shakila looked at the nailgun before throwing it down onto the ground and following Aimee off to meet back up with the others.

Zachary heard what Shelton was saying. "F--- them!" he said.

"Jayden, we were ambushed by some Dragonstorm operatives. Of course, with the truck here, maybe we can make it look like a traffic accident," Alfred said.

"I'm going into the truck," Cobalt Leader said. He smashed the window of the cab with his pistol and unlocked it.

Stern went over to Aimee and Shakila. He didn't think he had seen the feline before.

"Excuse me, are you an acquaintance of Aimee's? I'm Corporal Stern, a...friend and ally of her's. I suppose that you are with us in the battle against Dragonstorm, although you will have to be equipped with a better weapon than a nail gun in order to have a chance of victory." He was somewhat skeptical, but polite towards Shakila.

"I'm not much of a fighter, I got lucky with that thing" Shakila replied back to Stern "I'm more of a computer person, you know, hacking and what have you....call me Shakila"

Jayden looked over to Alfred "Dragonstorm? Can't say I've actually heard of the name still, I mean, even FBI has no information on these Dragonstorm people" he spoke as she stood back up again, yet, still keeping an eye on Shelton as well.

Shelton smiled at Zachary's answer. "That's probably the best answer anyone could've given." He straightened up and shook his head. "There's nobody in the truck. At least I don't think so. If there is, they aren't responding to hails."

Annoyed, Deathwind stopped his wings long enough to grab another door and toss at the nets...and then stepped by the intertwining nets and used his wings to quickly close the distance between him and the Omega Squad, his stinger exposed for the kill...

----------

In both areas, Crimson Squad began to recover from the attack, wondering what had happened...

"I found a map!" Cobalt Leader said, jumping down from the cab.

"Let me guess, that leads to Lab 101?" Dr. Zanasiu said.

Cobalt Leader looked at it. "That or another logging camp," he said. he then stuffed the map in his pocket.

"The mall's just down this road," Zachary said.

The group then headed down the sidewalk to Culeston Mall.

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

Omega Squad's powered exoskeletons gave their legs enough strength to propel themselves backwards a good distance, avoiding Deathwind's stinger.

The soldiers with the net launchers fired again.

Jayden looked over to Shelton "Dr. Landon's right, you do not know that, now...you have to pull yourself together if you are acually going to survive against these Dragonstorm people, I know their kind, well....terrorist anyway, and that's what they seem to be, just terrorists, and terrorist usually do not let up for anything"
