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

Free of being held down, the mule dashed off away from the magpies and into an alley. Jeckle rushed to help Heckle out of the building he'd been thrown into.
"My, she is the stubborn one." He said, climbing over the open window, and taking care not to be hurt by the glass.
Heckle was standing back up mere inches away from the worst of the mess, and Jeckle pulled him up by the arm.
"The others have gone to the saloon." Jeckle said to him. "Shall we join them, old boy?" He asked.
"What do you think?" Heckle replied. The two left and entered the saloon, not realizing that they were walking with their arms linked.
"Hello again!" Jeckle called, joining the rest of the group.

"Well, I'm going to fly around town," Captain Fairchild said as he rolled out of the hangar.

"I

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

When he reached the runway, he lit his engines and soared into the sky.

"Holy s---!" he exclaimed as he flew over Green River. The streets were littered with broken glass and some of the buildings appeared to have been corroded with dip or set on fire.

He sighed as he realized that he would have to burn down the dip contaminated ruins.

He revved up his 30 mm gatling gun and sent some incendiary rounds towards a the half melted remains of a general store.

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

Inside the hotel where Stripetail and the others were staying, the sound of Captain Fairchild flying over the hotel was heard.

A tremendous explosion was heard as Captain Fairchild's incendiary rounds struck their mark.

At the sound of the explosions, the two magpies gave startled yelps. Jeckle jumped into Heckle's arms and they clutched each other tightly.
"Oh, now what?!" Jeckle exclaimed.
Outside, their mule came running down the street, braying loudly.

Stripetail headed outside at the Sound of the explosions As he did he got a good look at the damage in the clear morning light "This town is completely trashed!" he muttered under his breath. "we'll have to hold the events outside of town, hopefully Miss Kitty will be able to point out some good locations.." He saw Fairchild Fly overhead' "Destroy only the areas that are beyond saving. " He said into his communicator. " remember that most of these places are occupied, either by humans or animals.
The rottens headed out of the hotel and looked around ' What in blazes made that loud boom? the Hooded Claw demanded.

"What on earth are they doing to this place?!" Kitty frowned, frustrated. She inspected all the damage.

"Skin off my bones," Belladonna shrugged, enjoying demolition.

' "Explosives, yes. dynamite.. no.. Its rather hard to explain "Stripetail replied " The events are going to be held outside of town. We are going to need to hold four events . kitty, are there places around here suitable for that? " he asked her
-
Those games of yours are going to be the death of Green river! Waul said " not that i don't mind athletic competition, mind you.. but this town is no no shape to the games. besides I heard the mayor shut them down.. "Under duress" stripetail replied.
We need something to cheer everyone up" dixie said, the an idea struck her " kitty1 I just thought up a name for our singing group. How about.. the Cats and the Crows?' Your gentlemen like to sing don't you? she said looking at the magpies " well, we'll need some male parts..

"Perhaps that could work," Kitty replied, turning to Stripetail.

"After this is over, you're gonna fix this place, right?"

"There's a canyon we can use," Tiger suddenly spoke up "some Indian mice think I'm a god, and they'd probably be more than glad to let us use their land to play."

That would work " stripetail mused " take me to them Tiger " so i may converse with them.. Since they think you are a god" he chuckled, "they'll have no trouble believing I'm a fellow god once i show off a few bits of magic.' He said as he began walking after tiger
"The Cats and the Crows hmm " interesting name " waul mused " i'll take it you'll want to use your old haunts eh Kitty. I've kept them as you last saw them, of course how can you call yourself the cats, when one of your members is a dog?
- its called wearing a costume" dixie replied.. " well it will have to be a good one if you are going to fool my guests" waul Replied "Well, might as well go get breakfast ready.. do you want your usual Kitty.. mouse on the roll?

"And make it grilled," Kitty nodded to Waul, entering the saloon.

"I better speak to them before you Stripetail," Tiger said later in the desert, "So they believe me."

"In spite of the false advertisement of our species, that sounds like an excellent idea!" Jeckle said, after climbing out of Heckle's arms.
"Are we ever songbirds!" Heckle grinned enthusiastically.

"I'll call you Stripetail," Tiger explained, "But, you'll have to make up your "backstory"."

Tiger stepped into view of the Indian Mice.

"Believers of the Tiger god!" Tiger announced powerfully, catching all of their attention. "I have returned! And there is someone I'd like you all to meet...." he gestured for Stripetail to appear.

"It's been too long indeed," Tiger nodded, "Millenniums has it been?" He shook Stripetail's paw.

"You know the almighty god of felines and mice? one of the native mice asked Stripetail.

~~~~~~~~~~

"I think they have the right idea," Annabelle said, "Even as an angel, I get hungry..." she went into the saloon.

"I'm taking the menu is more intended for cats?" Annabelle asked the cat waiter who was serving her and Belladonna.

Some of the items included:
Mouseburgers
Spaghetti with Mouse meatballs
Mouse pizza
and many more....

"My loyal subjects," Tiger announced, "My fellow god has a request of you. And as for myself..." he lied down in his trademark "god" position. "I request to be fed."

"Can I get a mouse pizza with the mice still alive?" Belladonna questioned. she liked to see other shivering in fear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tiger grinned as he saw several of the native mice gather food for him, his "buffet line" he mentally nicknamed.

"We'll have to talk with our chief," the mouse speaking to Stripetail replied.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Duke was flying over Green River. When he heard a familiar voice.

"Uncle Dukie!" a young owl calle.d

"Oh merciful heaven no..." the Duke frowned.

"Trust me...they are.." Kitty said to the baron, her mouth watering at the mere thought of mouse burgers.

~~~~~~~~~~

The mice soon returned. "God of the underearth, our chief wishes to fullfill your request, you may use our land."
