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

(ooc: How come Rainbow's calling her Shuttershy?)

"Sorry, I just got lost, Pinkie bounced off ahead and before I knew it, there were other people around....and I think I also got a new job, something called Sector 7-G, in a....Nuclear....Power Plant" Fluttershy was still very confused on the experience she had just been through but in turn, just hugged Rainbow Dash back.
(Sorry, big Typo)

"Yeah, Pinkie Pie can be real fast. I'll take you back to the others. Just try to keep up" Rainbow Dash said flying off as slow as possible so Fluttershy could keep up till they got back to their seats.

"Where's Pinkie Pie"? Dash asked.

"She said something about getting popcorn" Sparkle said rubbing her face where Pinkie Pie had placed her hooves.

Fluttershy just smiled back at Rainbow Dash as she followed her to the seats and also looked around for Pinkie Pie before she looked to Twilight "Sorry for worrying you guys, I didn't mean to....I tried to keep up with Pinkie, but she just took off and left me alone...." her mind was still thinking on her run-in with Mr. Burns and Smithers and what she got out of it.

***

Pinkie in turn, had found the popcorn vendor and popped her head out of the pile of popcorn in order to speak to the vendor, through the glass for that matter "Hiya!"

The vendor looked over to her and groaned "What are you doing in there? And for that matter how did you get in there?" he asked, a bit confused.

"Uh, popcorn, duh" Pinkie Pie replied back, taking a bite of the popcorn she was in.

"It's okay Fluttershy I am just glad that Rainbow Dash found you and that you aren't hurt." Twilight said with a smile to one of her best friends.

Fluttershy just seemed to look to the side for a moment before she just smiled back at Twilight and Rainbow Dash rather sweetly as usual.  Yet, she was still wondering two things, one was on why Pinkie was taking her time with the popcorn, the other, about that job still.

She seemed to then look around rather hessitantly, as if she was trying to seach the crowd for someone "I can't take that Sector 7-G job....I have to tell him that...." she spoke a bit quietly to herself.  To her, right now, that was probabally still going to nag away at her until she would indeed, sort it out.

***

The vendor sighed, a bit annoyingly at Pinkie eating the popcorn "Will you get out of there already!?" he ended up yelling at her.

Pinkie just pouted by that point "Okay, fine...." she replied, giving him, what seemed to be a death glare as she slowly sank into the popcorn.  Her way of exiting the container.

"That has got to be the second most scariest thing I've ever seen" the vendor spoke as he shuddered.

***

Pinkie Pie instead, decided to go and find some other form of food to bring back to Twilight instead, but the question that was on her mind was what.

(ooc: Yes, Pinkie will be going around and annoying the different vendors most likely)

Violet just shrugged lightly "It was indifferent really, kinda....boring if you ask me, I mean, I tried to keep myself entertained with what movie was playing, but it wasn't all that interesting" she ended up with a quick little nervous sounding laugh as well.

"Magic's nothing new to me," the Duke laughed.

It didn't even take long till most of the vendor around had gotten rather ticked off with Pinkie Pie while she in turn, just simply bounded off, leaving each of the vendors infuriated with her antics as it were, while she headed back to where Twilight was last seen.

Lt. Martin flew over the crowd again at a lower speed. She then spotted Rainbow Dash. "Hey, you! Up for a race?" she shouted as she flew by.

"This is going to get interesting," Captain Fairchild said as he flew in slow circles around the stadium. He was interested in watching Lt. Martin race.

"Well, who's gonna get the popcorn?" Major Lockie asked.

Captain Fairchild gave him a strange look. "We don't even eat food like organics. Why the hell would we get popcorn?"

"It's an expression."

Captain Fairchild sighed and continued his slow flying loops.

"Two of you racing each other? How about we make it a bit more interesting" a voice spoke a griffin landed near Lt. Martin "And what I mean by that is that I join in the race as well, after all, I need a good practice race before the big thing starts" Gilda explained as she looked at her claw for a moment "But if you guys don't want to, I'll understand that you'll be too afraid in loosing"

She gave off a grin of sorts towards Rainbow Dash in particular before glancing towards Lt. Martin, awaiting for an answer.

Lt. Martin looped around. "Let's fly!" she said with a smirk.

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

Major Lockie landed in an airfield nearby so he could watch the race between Gilda, Rainbow Dash and Lt. Martin.

Captain Fairchild did the same.

Wally & Gary looked out the window of their bus.  "I remember we use to travel all over the world during the original laff-a-lympics." Wally said, "it was pretty fun, seeing new places."

"Sounds great." Gary said.

"Ready whenever you two loosers are" Gilda answered back as she headed for a starting position.  It already looked like, to the Griffin anyway, that there was no designated racing line, so she decided to do just that, tell both Lt. Martin and Rainbow Dash where they would be racing "It'll be simple, a race to that temple, right around it and back again" she spoke, pointing at the temple with one claw, that was barely seen in the distance "Of course if it's too far...." she added in with a smirk as she readied herself regardless.

***

Pinkie had soon enough returned, appearing right behind Fluttershy "Hi! I'm back again!"

Fluttershy gasped and gave off a weak sounding scream, jumping behind Rainbow Dash as she did so before perking her head out, realizing it was just Pinkie Pie, as she blushed at her little mistake.

Rainbow Dash smiles at Fluttershy before smiling at Gilda. "Nothing is to far for me. You should just be worried about me leaving you two in the dust. But, hey second place isn't so bad especially since you'd be racing the best most fastest flier this side of Cloudesdale. " Rainbow Dash said flying next to Gilda ready to start the race. Gloating and racing were 2 of Rainbow's best things she was good at.

Twilight Sparkle smiles as Pinkie Pie shows up. "Hey, Pinkie I thought you said you were gonna get some popcorn. This should be good" Sparkle said seeing there was about to be a race.

"You're on!" Lt. Martin cried.

She then sped off, the howl of her powerful engine echoed across the stands.

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

Captain Fairchild was sipping some jet fuel. "So who do you think is gonna win?"

Major Lockie chuckled. "Lt. Martin, she can hit Mach two or maybe even beyond. But she's no match for Blackie."

Blackie was a living SR-71 "Blackbird" - and the fastest plane in the airbase. In fact, he once traversed the United States coast to coast in under an hour.

"Your name is Spike too, that is awesome." The Extreme Dinosaurs Spike said.  

"It does make your name easy to remember." The mlp:fim Spike said.

"This authentic Chinese food is great." Chow said, eating some stuff he had gotten from some nearby food vendors.
