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

"We're heading to a new hotel," Spc. Crota replied. He was squeezed next to Shelton and the side of the truck's bed.

Without any further incident the two vehicles headed back to the hospital. The SWAT team had already cleared the building and it was now starting to become dusk.

Alfred and Neville parked their vehicles and got out.

Zachary got out of Neville's car, opened the Dragonstorm van and got into the driver's seat.

PFC Reynolds, Dr. Bailey and Dr. Zanasiu got into the van as welll.

"Do you guys wish to ride the van instead?" Alfred asked.

"Yeah, I'm feeling kind of uncomfortable being squeezed between Cobalt Leader, Shelton and Cpl. Stern," Spc. Crota said.

He then slithered over the seated passengers with and lowered himself to the ground using his hands and body.

Sgt. Masters did the same.

Jayden got out of the vehicle as well "Okay, I'll follow you lot to the hospital as well, as I don't really want to have to leave my car here by itself" he walked over to where he parked his car last and waited by it to see what the others would do.

Shakila however, decided to stay where she was for the time being, as she didn't mind sitting by Shelton, since he seems to be good to talk to about her interests as well, as it did seem like to her, they went along rather well.

"So, what are we doing here at the hospital again?" Aimee decided to ask the group, not too sure what was happening at the moment.

"We left the van here," Spc. Crota said. "We'll need to take that van back so we can transport all of us."

"Should we ditch the van? I mean, what if it contains a tracking device?" Cobalt Leader said.

"Shelton, does the van have a tracking device?"  Sgt. Masters asked.

"Ah, so a hotel first, then I take it we'll also be heading to the mall as well?" Shakila decided to ask the group.

"I agree actually, mall still sounds like a good idea as well" Jayden added on from his car, that was since he hadn't gotten in yet, as he was still waiting for the others to leave first.

"No," said Shelton. "It's just a van. DS teams were considered trusted members of Dragonstorm, enough that we could get away with a lot of things normal Dragonstorm personnel couldn't."

He stretched. "I'm kinda feeling comfy right where I am." He almost dozed off, then shook his head. "I can't fall asleep," he said to Shakila. "I did that last time we headed towards a hotel, and missed my opportunity to give my announcement to the whole group. If I doze off, wake me up."

"Oh, don't worry, I'll wake you up" Shakila told Shelton with a bit of a smile as well, leaning back up against the back of he seat again, looking to Shelton once again.

Jayden walked back over to the group and turned to Dr. Landon "That might not be such a good idea as of yet, police would probabally still be around, getting the crime scene all sorted out and salvaging things while they're around wont be any good, they'll stop you from doing so, that, and all your items there would now be classed as evidence, yo know, working with anything to help solve the crime on their hands"

"So how did you get involved in all of this anyway?" Shelton asked Shakila. "Are you from Culeston?"

"Well, believe it or not, I actually had a small job, a receptionist at a local newspaper company, Aimee and Stern there came in asking for information, and you know how it is, a boring job, so I decided to have a look through records on whatever I could find....knowing that I would also get fired from that job as well, and may I say that that job isn't all that great" Shakila begun, pausing for a moment before continuing on "Anyway, after all that had happened, and before I knew it, I was dragged into all of this, and I have to say, good thing too in a way, sort of livens up everything some more"

Deathwind had gone into a chemical testing lab, and the superweapon found out some lazy scientist has left a lot of test tubes and chemical containers out in the open...

Vic, Tank, & Erin crept back the same way they came to the stair well, climbing up to where bodies & blood littered the turnoff on the next level...

"So, are we going to get moving? Dragonstorm isn't gonna wait for us, you know!" Stern was still with the others on the truck, waiting to see some action. Of course, coming in from a firefight and heading to another was not the idea most men had of warfare.

"Yeah, I was fired too, but my boss also pulled strings to have me deported to Austria, so you know, it could be worse." Shelton sighed. "You never know what's going to happen. Take this whole Dragonstorm thing; it's really gotten out of hand. Sometimes I look back and wonder how it got this bad."

"Yeah, I know what you mean" Shakila gave off a bit of a smile to Shelton "But hey, you shouldn't really look to the past, past is the past, you've got to look to the future is all, I mean, you can't change the past, but the future is always changing and only you can control your own future"

"Okay, everyone who wants to get in the van, get in!" Zachary said, starting up the engine.

"Anybody know where else we can shop?" Dr. Bailey asked.

"We could just go raid the wrecked Culeston Mall," Dr. Zanasiu pointed.

"We may have smashed several laws but let's have some decency."

"I say we raid the destroyed mall" said Shelton. "The Starbucks on the first floor always left the back door unlocked, and we could steal lattes, I know where all the 'secret' coffee recipes are. I'm seriously half asleep here. Plus there'll be no lines for the Discovery Store, which is practically unheard of."

"I'm already in enough trouble as it is with the FBI by the sounds of it, and I don't think raiding a mall will help me on that part" Shakila spoke up next, folding her arms as well "Although, I do need a new laptop, backpack, clothes, and a cellphone as well...." she honestly, wasn't too sure herself with what to actually do.

Aimee looked at the mall, but shook her head "I don't need anything else for myself at the moment, so I can stay here while you guys raid the mall if you wish"

Jayden gave off a sigh "You know, doing such a thing might not be such a good idea, like Dr. Bailey had said here, you've already broken enough laws as it is and raiding a mall wont help the cause in this case"

"All right..." sighed Shelton. "I guess when you're still a respected member of society you have more of a reputation to live up to. I just hope the hotel has complimentary coffee."

Stern exited the truck and walked over to the car. He knocked on the window, where Aimee was. "Is there room in there for one more? I can't get any straight answers from anyone in the truck."

The Corporal also suspected that Aimee would need his protection again, and possibly Shakila. These girls had a tendency to get into deadly danger.
