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

Droopy answered his phone.  He listened to Valiant giving him a basic rundown of some of the events that had happened in the last town.  "And she had a part of the road coated in the dip.  No one was hurt, just some tires of some vehicles, but the tires were replaced or are going to be." Droopy said, giving him the information on the recent goings on of Gabriel.  "She may strike again in the town we are going to be in next."

"Indeed.  I would guess she may be planning something at the next location.  Who knows when or where she'll strike next.  My guess would be during one of the games or something like that to cause quite a bit of terror." Droopy said.

While Lola wasn't answering, Bugs looked out the window he was closest to and saw all the landmarks rolling by as the bus made its way to its next stop. Of course, he hadn't really expected the games to move from town to town, but he didn't really question it either. He just went with it, like he always did.

"So, Lola? Do you know where we're going?" he asked the female rabbit.

no, I don't really. all I heard was that there would be several different locations, i didn't anything about specific locations.."lola admitted. "but I'm sure it will be lots of fun, as long as that crazy woman Gabriel doesn't mess around..
The Game priogressed with Belladnna and the baron doing the best. The Hooded claw was in third with annabelle being the short stack (having the lowest number of chips left). Looks like you'll soon be out of the game Annabelle. The Hooded Claw grinned.

"You'll see the power of playing fair!" Annabelle asserted.

Belladonna could only smirk at that.

Meanwhile, the Duke of Owls was flying solo to the next stop of the games. "Feels good to exercise the wings," he said to himself.

A small plane rolled into the hangar that Dixie and her friends were staying in. The hangar was well lit but far from homey with bare concrete floors and sheet metal walls. Although there were some borderline raunchy pinups of assorted female (though it was hard to tell) planes pasted on the walls.

"Do you have anyone we can contact regarding these dip attacks?" it asked.

Contact Lord Stripetail ' dixie said "hes the one running the games. Arlene and i were the victims of the one of the dip attacks.. we were separated from our group, which is on its way here for the next stage of the games, along with the Dawgd rottens and Yahooeys."
' Garfield is one of the mascots of the games' Arlene said a note of pride in her voice. ' so how far are we from Greenb River and what is it like?
 We're 20 miles away, and its a old West Town.. literally. it looks like sometimg out of Tombstone or the quick and the dead, said a small plane passing by. ' it looks like they haven't come out of the 19th century..
_ Great so this place is even further removed from the present than the last place was dixie said as she and Arlene looked for a place to spend the night. " Are there any cots or rooms we could use tonight? arlene asked.

"We best be ready for anything." Wally said.  "No telling what she may be up to.  If she'll dip a road who knows what she may do next." He said to Gary.

"I can imagine some rather, nasty ideas.  But we can only be on the alert and do your best to defeat her." Gary said.

"We are from the late 1800s," Miss Kitty pointed out matter of factly.

"What happened along the way Mr. Stripetail?" Sagwa asked the squirrel.

" i mean it paid the bills for a bit then I started the resteraunt.. and well the economy crattered.. and here we are.. but so far we've done pretty well in the games.. a million bucks.. is a million more than we had beforehand Winnie grinned.. as the bus continued down the highway. the smke from the areas where Dip had been burnbed where visible

"Who's Gabriel?" Bugs asked her.

Tigger looked at them from his seat as well. "Yeah, I'd like ta know," he put in. Pooh, in the meantime, was still stuffing his face full of honey.

Captain Fairchild and Lt. Martin landed at the airbase. Both of them were quickly hosed down and refueled by other living vehicles. Granted, there were a fair amount of Humans around as well but they did tasks that the living vehicles were too large to handle.

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

A wiry man followed by a living pickup truck entered the hangar where Dixie and Arlene were located.

The pickup truck opened its tailgate and the man grabbed two sleeping bags.

"Here you go," the pickup truck said. Judging from its gravelly voice, it was a male. "We'll see ya in the morn,"

"Good night," the man said as he placed the two sleeping bags on the floor.

The man and pickup truck exited the hangar.

"Feeling better?" Lt. Martin asked as she rolled into the hangar and took her "bunk" by the rear.

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

"Stripetail, this is Major Lockie. I have two people rescued from the crash in the airbase outside Green River, " Major Lockie said via his built in radio. He was located inside another hangar and his weapons and interior were being cleaned up and reloaded.

Luckily, the plane that had spoken to Dixie and Arlene managed to obtain Stripetail's frequency.

Excellent, you've got them.. good, We'll be passing up to pick them up we'll be there by 2 am at the latest..' Stripetail said.. We'll need to check into our hotels ' The Green Hotel, Red Hotel, Blue Hotel and White Hotel. Hopefully they won't mind the late arrivals.
_
 We're ok thank You" dixie said as she squeezed into her cot. It was lumpy and smelled a bit like someone had been using it while draining oil. ' How did you get invlved with security for these games? Did Stripetail contact you..?"
Arlene  was trying to get into her sleepin bag, without much sucess. finally she gave up and settled on it from the outside..
- fair my dear is not usually a part of this game when you are dealing with characters like me.. The hooded Claw grinned as he tossed i another bet he had two sevens and the first three cards showed a pair of 8s and a 6..the Baron grinned.. he had three 8s...

"We were hired by the town after reports of dip attacks," Lt. Martin said. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to sleep."

The lights in the hangar slowly dimmed as Lt. Martin fell asleep

good night then " dixie said, as the lights in the hangar quickly dimmed. dixie soon realized that she was still wearing her armor, which she quickly deactivated, pitching the room into darkness.
 the scooby bus was the first reach Green River, it rolled into town at 1;30 in the morning.. as it did the carnage wrought by gabrierl and the weasels was made clear even at thisd late hour. houses stood empty, glass and debris scattered the street. ' we can get a better idea of the damage in the morning Stripetail said as they got out in front of the Green Hotel. he climbed back on to wake the young kittens, who had fallen asleep " come on you thre. its time to sign in. we;lll be here for a few days.. and you'll be my gueasts.. he said with a warm smile..

"I guess we should be there soon." Wally said while he was looking out the window at the scenery passing by.

"Yes.  Despite what she tried to do, we'll still arrive and continue the games." Droopy said.

"Wow, really? That's terrible," Bugs said, looking down at the ground.
