---

The scene opens up to a night time in Paris, France, where a full moon was lit over the quiet streets. But just then, a sneaky shadow (followed by drama music) was seen sneaking out of a place that was a museum with a sack over his shoulders. The figure jumped, used some cane to swing off a lamp's rail line to leap in the air and land on a rooftop. There the body was seen from the light of the moon that helped describe the person. It was an anthropomorphic raccoon, has grey fur with black stripes and mask. His ensemble consists of a blue-elbow-sleeved shirt with a yellow collar, blue boots, blue gloves with yellow cuffs, and a blue peasant's cap. Around his waist is a belt with the buckle shaped in the form of a raccoon symbol, plus it has a gold trim. He wears a red backpack for storing away items, keeping his calling card, and contains his paraglider for stunt usage. He also has on his left thigh, a brown pouch which also stores away a few essential things. He even swung in his hand, a brown staff ending in a golden hook to make himself look…impressive.

"Hi, my name's Sly. Sly Cooper." A narrative voice announced off in telling us who the raccoon thief we see was. "And if you haven't guess it, I'm a thief." The voice stated off while the person in question hids from search lights, after his latest heist.

Now the image shows us a scene with many different raccoons, each one different from the last, but many sporting a cane in hand?

"For you see, I come from a long line of thieves." Sly's narrative voice stated out about his lineage to those seeing this. "I steal from other thieves, thus becoming, a Master Thief, just like my family has done for centuries." He explained from each Cooper family member that went by, each in a different time period in history. "And right now, I was running the family business." We soon see the raccoon of the present moment, Sly Cooper himself from introduction of his narrative ways. "And these, were my members of the Cooper Gang." He ushered off to those in the shadows behind him, stating those that are with the guy.

We focus on the guy to the left that was an anthropomorphic turtle, seem like a small guy to Sly's height, even being confined to a wheelchair. He wears besides his glasses and gloves, a pith helmet and a bulletproof vest, along with a grey button-up shirt underneath his vest. His wheelchair has been modified with robotic arms and boosters.

"This one was Bentley, our Brains of our planning." Sly's narrative voice introduced the turtle that was known as the smart guy of his band. "Whenever we pull off a heist, he's the guy to come up with the planning of jobs. Thanks to having an IQ of at least 140. And while in a wheelchair, he does have a habit of using his tech and gadgets in the field when need be." Sly's voice narrated off stating how Bentley here can function himself in his expertise use on the field.

Then we focus on the guy to the right that was an anthropomorphic hippopotamus, seems the biggest guy within the gang, who's strong, muscular but slightly round hippopotamus. His signature color is magenta, often mistaken for pink. He wears a blue T-shirt that looks a bit too small for him, and a light blue scarf to go with his driver motif and no pants. He dons a maroon mask over his head and matching fighting gloves over his hands when donning his persona in battle. He wears thick rim glasses….although they could also be goggles or perhaps a strange hybrid of the two, as goggles would certainly go with his driver motif.

"This big guy was Murray, the Brawn of our Enforcer list." Sly's narrative voice introduced the hippo, that was qualify for being the strong-man for the team. "With his big muscles and strength, he can plow down any force that gets in his way. Plus, he's also our getaway driver for our van, we managed to make some nice getaways with this guy's driving skills like that of a racer." Sly's voice narrated off in stating how Murray was more of taking on the odds with his muscle strength and never backing down from a challenge.

The scene focuses solely on the gathered group that shined in some spotlight?

"Together, my team and me, have pulled off some great jobs in stealing from other crooks, to big time villains." As Sly's narrated voice spoke, we see the gang going to many areas in stealing and foiling bad guys on the clock. "Plus having our name be spread by Interpol's 'handy' work, was helping our fame grow?" A picture of the Cooper Gang was seen on a wanted picture from the front page news coverage. "And usually where there's Interpol coming down on us, there's another that's never far behind?" Sly's voice narrated off with a sly tone in removing the picture to show us….someone interesting?

The scene now focuses on a lot of siren cars parked around a crime scene, where a 'Cooper calling card' was found, and someone had picked it up. And this person in particular, was an anthropomorphic creature that was a vixen with brownish orange fur & eyes, a mole under her left eye, and waist-length black hair tied in a braid at shoulder level. Her ensemble includes a dark blue midriff-baring bra top that zips in the front, sports a dark blue miniskirt, and a choker which her Interpol badge hangs from. She wears a light brown leather jacket which it's sleeves are rolled up above her elbows & wears yellow gloves. A different style of boots that were brown, and she wears a lone earring on her left ear. She carried a weapon in question, her Shock Pistol, was designed with the sole purpose of discharging ions configured into a projectile used to stun personnel. It's very potent, able to take down criminals as large & durable, though it may take up to multiple shots to subdue them and destroy inanimate objects as large as a police car. This was one person that had beauty, but also a dangerous approach for any that mess with her.

"Inspector Carmelita Fox, she carries a torch for me wherever I go." Sly narrative of his voice in stating who the lovely lady fox was while….going into a different detail of it all? "Course, with her being a cop, and me…being a thief, the torch may get a little hotter under the collar?" The raccoon pointed off in where pictures show Sly dodging and escaping Carmelita's approach to bag the thief at every crime scene he's pulled off. "And where there's smoke, there's fire. And when they're someone shooting a Shock Pistol to roast your fur to cinder, you might wanna stay out of that kitchen?" On that last noted fact, was the fox lady firing explosive shots that total areas where the raccoon thief just barely managed to escape certain 'shock-therapy' work.

The scene now changed to show the image of Sly Cooper and his Gang; Bentley and Murray, looking ready for action.

"For about now, we're about to take on a whole new meaning of 'Duck & Cover' in what was ahead of us?" Sly's narrative voice exclaimed from where the raccoon's eyes shifted from seeing something 'new'…would appear to them. "And with this next new chapter in my life's work as a thief to stop crooked foes from getting what they want, is gonna be put to the test here?" Sly's narrated voice concluded off from tipping his cap, held his cane up high, preparing for the new adventure to sally-forth to him.

Now things go dark from this scene, as everything seemed quiet now? That is until a title screen started to show up above, followed a picture of a creepy cavern with the focus on a case holding a dime, and looming shadowy hands of a figure about to grab the object within the candle lit room?

Sly Cooper & The Gang

'In'

Duck On Detail?

---

The scene now opens up to a more safe haven place, where it was a building that was meant to be….the hideout for Sly Cooper's gang?" As the picture zooms in, we see them doing a little 'get-together' time by the computer with a wide size screen. Nothing much else going on around here, unless you count on this group coming across something that all their focus was in one spot?

"At this moment, my gang and I were at our hideaway, which we're suppose to be just 'hanging' loose after one job in Italy in swiping a Priceless Necklace, dating back to a robbery that happened when Leonardo Da Vinci first became an artist?" Sly narrated his voice in what the gang is suppose to be doing, after coming back form a 'heist' mission. "As Murray tried to chow-down, on some chips, with some dip? I stood near my pal Bentley, as he wanted to show us something?" The image shows the hippo dipping some chips in some ranch dip, all while Sly stood near Bentley working on the computer of his.

And soon we see a chartroom from the computer screen, responding with a black crow icon to a green turtle with glasses (we can guess 'who's' icon that turtle one is)?

"As it just so happens, we were given a challenge by someone who 'heard' of our skills & reputation?" Sly narrated off in stating that the messenger chatting to them online, has heard much about the Cooper Gang. "And offered us a chance to show the entire world, that we're the best thieves to ever live if we can pull off a major heist?" The little words showed up on the chartroom board on the screen in telling this out to the gang reviewing this.

From those looking at this, there was plenty of reactions from that little work of praise.

"Murray & me kinda smiled in feeling flattered that someone recognized 'true' potential when they saw it." Sly's narrative voice stated from where the raccoon & hippo looked to the other, smiling with pride in themselves. "That is, well, if we ever came face to face?" The raccoon narrated off that part since whoever they chatted with, they don't know who or what that person looks like, which is the way on the network.

But while two gang members were finding this nice bits to help boost their motive, only the turtle was focus on a different topic here.

"But Bentley was on a cautious side, cause whoever had a job for us, somehow figured out 'Who' we were on ThiefNet, which meant a big time exposure & traceable leads to where we currently are connected?" Sly's voice of caution stated off in his narration about what's happening here. "So Bentley did some typing to figure out just what kinda 'job' the person had for us?" The turtle was hard at work typing to respond to the new chatter while wanting some info on what assignment the gang is about to get in?

Soon some data was being uploaded on the Cooper Gang's computer that showed a city.

"We got our answer alright? The job was to break into someone with a lot, and we mean…A LOT, of money." Sly narrated off in stating the first part of what the crew was being asked to do. "The place was located in what was called; Duckberg, and the building in question was…Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin." The raccoon's narrated voice responded off in what city they would be heading for, and of what building own by what owner in question?

Soon an image of the building was big, gray, had a golden '$' sign on the front with a red dome and a golden tower on top, as the structure was on top of some hill.

"Bentley went to immediately give me the 411 on what task we were asked to do?" Sly stated off his narrative voice in what the smart turtle was doing next here. "This Money Bin was said to be what houses a large sum of fortune, by the Richest Duck in the World: Scrooge McDuck." He issued off from his narration in who the owner was & of what his standards were.

Soon a digital image of the duck being in question, came up on the screen for the gang to know. He was a slender duck, elderly, white feathers, half bald, gray hair, both orange bill & webbed feet. He wears on himself spectacles, black top hat, blue shirt with red trim, red spats on his feet. No questions to be asked, this was the man, or duck that's said to be the richest in the world, and if not, then who else would look like someone living the rich life from a hard to acquire wealth by working so hard doing it.

"We got a good profile on the guy in question?" Sly's narrated voice stated from where the gang was digging for info on Mr. McDuck's background. "We learn that the title of 'Richest', was no lie? Which thanks to Bentley, pointed out Scrooge's money bin holds 607 tillion, 386 zillion, 947 trillion, 522 billion dollars & 36 cents?" The turtle managed to uncover just 'HOW MUCH' money, the person in question, was keeping in the money bin place. "I gotta say, that made us drop our jaws, or lose our balance in just even 'seeing' such impossible numbers?" As Sly's narrated voice stated that, Murray fell back on his behind, Sly stared with a curious face, and Bentley was just as amazed to see 'all' those numbers. "This duck guy even made sure he purchase the best security system, money can buy to protect his valuables form any thief?" At that mentioned stuff, brought the gang up to being focus and serious again.

Images of past thieves, those called the Beagle Boys, tried to get into the Money Bin to take Scrooge's money, but meant with…'unpleasant' encounters.

"While I was impressed by this, and it even brought back memories of Dr. M. during the Cooper Vault adventure? Which I felt was best left a memory, too many bad run ins?" Sly's voice narrated off with the raccoon thinking back to the time Dr. M fortified an island to break into the Cooper Vault, which in truth, was a really tough adventure for Sly Cooper & the gang.

Now we watch as Bentley was typing faster to bring up some posted articles relating to Scrooge McDuck & his rise to fame, fortune, and wealth.

"When we were done looking through Mr. McDuck's background, we found absolutely no trace, of criminal recordings or anything that said he was bad? Sure, there were a time or two he was accused of a crime, but was proven innocent?" Sly's narrative voice spoke from where we see the raccoon's focus face trying to understand the picture he and his gang were unraveling this mystery of the one they are going after his riches? "He started out by working up the finical ladder from humble immigrant roots. Born in Glasgow, Scotland, he made a living shining boots & was enraged when a ditchdigger paid him with a US dime after he passed out from exhausting labor cleaning the ditchdigger's mud-caked boots. From there, he vowed to be tougher then the toughest, smarter then the smartest, and will make money square. And he kept the dime as a keepsake of his early labors & inspired him to emigrate to the US." Much picture images were showing us the past life Scrooge lived in from his earlier times before becoming rich. "Seeing that, we can tell Mr. McDuck's done well for himself. And the guy has a family to keep him company, and he's just a business duck wanting to make more money, and nothing else about being so selfish that it's criminal?" The next image over the narration, showed what was the rich duck with a group from his mansion, a butler, a maid, a pilot, a gadget-man, and even four kids?

Seeing the image was more then enough to have Sly, Murray, and Bentley tense up in thinking 'They can't pull a heist off a family' kinda thoughts. They maybe thieves, but they don't steal from humble & innocent family fortunes that show now signs of growing roots of evil or whatnot.

"We were just sending a message to our 'mysterious' dealer, to tell him we couldn't take the case." Sly's voice narrated off to say while we see Bentley's image typing on his computer to send a reply message. "We maybe thieves, but we have honor to uphold. Not to mention, my family only steals from other thieves." The narrated statements were heard and being spoken of what even the Cooper Gang here are standing for. "We believe that would settle everything…?" Sly's voice narrated off in what was gonna be the thing to end this deal from ever happening.

Or so it would have seen…?

"Poofruvhmmmm!" Suddenly, smoke clouds erupted from the screen which made Bentley get knock back, Murray to help the turtle up while they & Sly step away. And then the smoke was levitating itself up to project some holographic image of a character they never seen before? She was a slender duck, mid-age perhaps, white feathers, light-violet color eyelashes, black raven style hair, both orange bill & webbed feet. She wears a black dress, red cuffs, and black heels. From what one can guess, she was something of a witch, a bad kind at best.

"But we were wrong?" Sly's narrative voice issued off from when he brought out his cane to be on the defensive here. "Turns out who we were dealing with was some duck sorceress named Magica De Spell?" The image of the new character was revealed before the gang, as she bow in presenting herself. "She told us that we 'must' accept her task of breaking & entering the property of the duck that holds a precious item she wants." While Magica made her serious claim, Sly & his group were not phased or threatened in the slightest of helping this sorcerer. "And that if we refuse, there 'will' be consequences for our actions to play apart in this?" The mistress issued that should the thieves refuse to aid her, a little 'consequence' will be in order.

Soon Magica De Spell swirls her magic clouds to create a strange foam that rumbled like thunder. And soon, the image was display in showing a real shocker, someone was chained by their wrist in a dungeon. And the worst of it all, was that the hostage in question, was Interpol's Inspector Carmelita Fox.

"Through her magic, Magica showed us what was Carmelita Fox, tied up in a dungeon area and unable to escape?" Sly's narrative voice stated what the gang saw was another friend of theirs in trouble. "I couldn't tell you how much I wanted to leap through to save her, but that cloud of illusion, was just that, an illusion." Sly's image form tried to reach for Carmelita, but the puffy cloud of the illusion faded from the reaction, reminding the gang that it was just a magical display of what's happening outside where they are.

Now all eyes were on the witch herself, as she pointed to laugh at the gang's expressions of surprise before calming down to later on, chat with them.

"Magica promised us, that if we do this job, and steal Scrooge McDuck's special item; the guy's Number One Dime, she let Carmelita go." Sly's narrative voice stated in what the gang has to do in order to assure the safe release of Carmelita. "But if we refuse, or fail to meet Magica at a location on a due time limit she's giving us, and she'll just cut ties with the inspector…literally, in a case where if one's use ends, the villain can just dispose of the hostage." From the display screen that was showed, Magica made her left index finger move across her neck, issuing her point about what she do to Carmelita, if the Cooper Gang fail in their task.

Sly looked from Bentley & Murray that they all shared defeated expressions in seeing; they got no way out of this?

"Swallowing my pride, and keeping my gang at bay, and myself, we had no choice….but to make a deal with the devil herself?" Sly's voice narrated while we see him narrowing his serious eyes at Magica, giving a little nod in stating 'okay, we'll do the job' kinda reply. "I enjoy facing tough challenging obstacles, but this maybe one time, where the life of a person I care for, was counting on me to save her?" Sly's narrative voice stated how this wasn't just a simple thief job, a person's life was in peril, and time…was ticking here.

Magica laughed in prideful joy at this before vanishing from sight while everything…went dark.

Now the scene changes to open up somewhere during the daytime, where near a familiar Money Bin, was located on a hill grass spot. From afar was a building where Sly Cooper & his Gang were station while using their Binocucoms to zoom through in watching the area in question. They tried to make out a lot of things that went on, and what they had to be cautious of.

First up was a strange limo that was light-violet, a gold '$' mark on it in front of yellow engine hood, lights, bar underneath, and gold inner tire plates while a spare was on the back. Out of it came what was apparently a butler/chauffeur, who is actually an anthropomorphic dog. His name, is Duckworth, despite having 'Duck' in his name, he looks more like a dog? He is Scrooge McDuck's longtime, no-nonsense butler/chauffeur, and errand boy on occasion. The Cooper Gang got plenty of intel on this guy, nothing 'too' strange about a noble butler character (unless you count crimes where folks assume, the butler did it?).

And second to come out of the vehicle was someone that could be described as a nanny. An obese anthropomorphic duck, gray hair, purple dress with a white apron. She was known as Mrs. Betina Beakley, hired by Scrooge McDuck to be his nanny & mother figure for the children, and as a housemaid. She is a kind, motherly, and sometimes feisty kinda duck if ever to be tangle with. She's often one to be cooking, cleaning & scolding when needed be when Scrooge is in his office. And that's just the tip of any other 'interesting' backgrounds she has that the Cooper Gang could dig up.

And soon running out of the Money Bin was three small & slender ducklings, white feathers and were young triplets. Each wore a baseball cap & shirt with colors for telling the three apart; Red, Blue & Green. They were Huey (the red color clothed duck), Dewey (the blue color clothed duck) & Louie (the green color clothed duck), they are mischievous characters. Huey being the leader of the trio & bravest of the bunch, Dewey being the brains of the trio, and Louie being the nicest of the trio. They are very much know to be the great-grand-nephews of Scrooge McDuck, by the Cooper Gang's intel.

Following behind the boys was apparently someone as a small & slender duckling, white feathers, appears beautiful, wears a pink dress & a pink ribbon around her head. She is known as Webby Vanderquack, who is sweet, caring, innocent, adorable, emotional, and is Scrooge McDuck's adopted grandniece & Mrs. Beakley's granddaughter.

And the last to come out of his building was Scrooge McDuck, who appeared to have some chat with those around him. But it was around here that he called someone to come into the picture.

And we soon had the shot of seeing who just comes strolling in, and by strolling, we mean that literally on….A WHEEL!? Yes, it was some kinda robot suit, mostly white waist, chest, gauntlets, and helmet, black sleeves & metal gloves, with a red springy cord gear connecting to his one tire wheel (balancing himself like a unicycle rider would), a pointed mohawk design off his helmet design with a red mark line going down it to where his light-violet visor covered his eyes. The only other things were a red mark logo on his chest (A 'C' reverse with a upside-down 'V' mix together to make the mark), the buttons & dials on his wrists, and his stomach had like a screen with buttons. Outside, he looked like a robot, but from the white neck to yellow beak, said he was a duck. And hence forth, he was know simply as Gizmo Duck, a well known superhero, and once more; Scrooge's personal bodyguard & chief of security for McDuck Enterprises. This guy's said to be bulletproof, fireproof, and even knuckle-proof, that not many criminals can beat him from his incredible strength and firepower.

At the moment, Scrooge was telling something to Gizmo Duck, before getting in his limo with his family and drove off.

After getting enough intel from their spying stature, did Sly's group decide to come to terms in their next step; planning on breaking in & swiping the prize at hand?

"Okay gang, I've gotten enough detail to figure out what to do about our operation?" Bentley spoke forth in about to instruct his pals on their plan operation here, and what to do after.

"Other then us working for the Bad Guys, it could use a bit of change?" Murray shrug off to remotely state the rhetorical matter of what their career has sunk into.

"Ease up Murray, we're all as tense as it can be right now?" Sly patted his big hippo pal on the shoulder, trying to lighten up the poor guy's situation with their 'new' client of performing this job. "Go ahead Bentley, what'cha got?" The raccoon waved his head to signal his turtle pal to continue where he was about to say.

"Right, here's the let down?" Bentley nods in understanding the message, and begins by showing a few images from his lab top he just uploaded. "The security system here could be on rivaling pair with Fort Hard Knox, maybe just as much as when we once had a world group of thieves on Kaine Island." He exaggerated a bit in stating how tough this case is going to be in breaking into the Money Bin and put it on a comparison note. "As much as we got my brains, Murray's brute strength, and Sly's stealthy agility, we won't last long in there?" The smart turtle shrug off to say how busting into Scrooge's Money Bin, frankly seems almost just about out of their league.

"So then then how 'do' we get in?" Murray asked off in just 'how' they can get in such a fortified building where a large stash of loot is stored, what was the plan?

"Firstly, we need to get into the building, place a bug on the main security's main system computer, so that I can access it to figure out what security we got, and how to watch out for each set trap." Bentley explained out the first part of their business in how to handle the situation. "And the only way to do that, is for me and Murray to go under disguise…as plumbers." He instructed forth in how things are gonna work, the old infiltrate under the alias disguise routine.

"Us! Plumbers?" Murray asked off in being both surprised, and stun in what he'll be going as?

"Yah, I'm left in the dark here as well Bentley? Care to run by that with us again?" Sly scratched the back of his head in not following where the turtle was going with the whole 'plumbers' infiltration plot?

"Sly it's simple, I've recently encounter that the plumbing system is having a weird clogging reaction from time to time? Most likely, from some 'young pranksters' at game." Bentley explained off while rolling his eyes on guessing 'who' caused such a problem to begin with, Scrooge's three nephews, who else would be the mischievous bunch to prank their uncle. "Which is how we can get in, fix the plumbing, and also plant my bug in place." The guy stated a sheer brilliant plan to where they get in, do a little 'fixing', and plant the bug for them to hack the security stuff.

"Okay, so where do I come in?" Sly nods in following along now, and wonders where he'll get to act.

"You don't come in? Not until me and Murray finish the job first and we begin our task around the timing of night." Bentley shook his head 'no' in stating, Sly can't do much of anything for now, and to just hang loose until night time begins to fall.

"Got it, a thief always does better when there are plenty of shadows." Sly smiles to nod in liking what he should do instead, makes perfect sense here.

"The only real tricky part is getting by Scrooge's best guard on the job? The one called Gizmo Duck." Bentley pointed out from where they spotted the duck in the suit. "The guy's a regular walking, or wheeling, arsenal of gadgets, and known superhero in Duckburg." He issued off that what they got is a serious case of fighting someone that's got a lot of gadgets and who knows what else, packed away in that suit?

"Wooh, I don't think we've ever tried tangling with a 'superhero' on a heist before?" Murray spoke off amazed and bewilder to believe they gotta fight off a 'SuperHero', instead of, like maybe a 'Super-Villain', kinda matter of adventure?

"Oh, I don't know? Just another authority of the law, only wearing different clothing." Sly smiled and shrugged off to make a sly joke about not being so afraid to take on the town favorite; Gizmo Duck, if need be.

"This is no laughing matter Sly, Gizmo Duck is one enemy we 'have' to avoid on all cost." Bentley sternly objected the idea of them facing such an adversary this early of their planned heist in working order. "He's not really a bad guy, even kids love him. And if we strive up too much attention to face him, well…I just don't know how our image look around then?" The turtle held his head for fearing the worst in how the gang's image would turn out that they beat up a good guy like that instead of a bad guy.

"Got it, get in, get the dime, and try to get by tight security & avoid the guard. Sounds simple enough." Sly responded off in making the entire explained plan as simple as possible, even made a wise-crack for the fun kicks of it.

"Right? Simple as in us doing something crazy to breaking into the Richest Duck in the World's Money Bin, and just not taking it all with us." Murray pointed out the major difference they were doing that almost sounded complete nonsense. "That, and I wonder how many trips we have to take packing the loot in the van?" The hippo pointed out another state of having a real hard time taking so much money, in one lonely van. It was a tricky problem that could not be done with one vehicle alone.

"Putting all humorist jokes aside, I'm calling this; Operation: Infiltrate & Secure Rich Duck's Prize!" Bentley spoke boldly forth in announcing what they are gonna call this little operation of theirs before beginning it. "You all will know and be brief on what we each have to do. So let's get out there, and do our best." The determine turtle genius excluded that it's time for them to prepare themselves for this task to do the next impossible.

Not just for the riches, but to help rescue a friend in need. May heaven only aid them in this tragic need for the Cooper Gang?

---

Now the scene changes to the front of the Money Bin, as we see Gizmo Duck performing his daily routine in guarding the area of his employee. But just then, a van with a strange plumber's pipe drove up to stop just a few feet away from the suited duck. And out of the van came two strange guys wearing brown company policy suits, one was a big hippo and the other a little turtle in a wheelchair.

"Halt! Identify yourselves." Gizmo Duck issued forth in sounding very serious, as he approached those that came out. "Friend or Foe?" He demanded to know if these were good folks, or robbers here for McDuck's money.

"Wooh, hold on, we're just your standard plumbers?" Murray held up his hands with a tool box he's holding to state what they are.

"Plumbers?" Gizmo Duck asked off puzzled in hearing this right all of a sudden.

"Yes, allow us to introduce ourselves." Bentley spoke in wanting to get some attention focus on him. "I'm Bert, and this is Murf. We're the Bert & Murf Plumbers, as our group is named." He stated off in what Bentley & Murray are going by their undercover names & false company name.

"Yep, when it comes to plumbing, we do a 'bang' up job!" Murray declared off in what they do when it comes to doing pipe work.

"Hmm, strange….I don't recall Mr. McDuck needing to meet with the plumbers?" Gizmo Duck held his chin to ponder this information a bit in finding it…strange?

"Oh, well um…you see…?" Murray slowly spoke to lower his arms, finding it hard to answer such a difficult question?

"We're doing a special for rich folks to help rise our business." Bentley spoke off in stating what he and the hippo are doing for Mr. McDuck. "If we can get the satisfactory of the Richest Duck in the World, to say we did a 'bang up' job, then we'll get lots more clients." He explained that this was to help their enterprise rise up if they do a job for someone really well-known.

"Ugh, yeah! Plus….as a special, we're doing his; Free of charge!" Murray scratched his noggin in how else to simply say, they are doing this job for McDuck, absolutely free.

"Hmmm…well that does sound like what Mr. McDuck would do?" Gizmo Duck rubbed his chin in thinking this over after hearing what these 'plumbers' are wanting to do. "But first, let me clarify your license permits to make sure, you're not just pulling my leg?" He held out his hand in wanting 'proof' that these two, are not trying to scam him.

"You mean the one wheely thing?" Murray pointed off that Gizmo Duck actually had a one leg joint, which was the only thing keeping him up.

"Yes, that." Gizmo Duck responded off in responding to that wise-crack remark.

"Here you go sir, our bullet-board of our list category of our entire license to work on folks plumbing needs." Bentley handed a bullet sheet that was full of their license paperwork, all in black & white, nothing out of the ordinary.

"Hmmm….well everything 'seems' to be in order here?" Gizmo Duck spoke from looking through the pages, his scanner showed all was right, nothing seem like 'fraudery' or what-not to him? "Very well, just head in, take a left turn & you'll find the first restroom. Then take a elevator to the top floor, hang a right and you should spot another restroom by Mr. McDuck's office area." He handed the paper work back while giving directions to these plumbers in where they are suppose to go. "But don't do anything as to approach the giant vault that's next to it. That's where the money of Scrooge McDuck is kept, locked and key. Try to approach it or touch the thing when Mr. McDuck isn't around, and a security system will catch you in the act. Understood." He explained that motion in a serious tone, if these guys get too curious for their own good, the security measures will 'vap' them good.

"Ugh, crystal clear. Daugh, I mean, not that we take a crystal from him or nothing?" Murray responded, but then double check what he spoke and gave a solid salute to the duck suited guy.

"Good, carry on now. And good luck scrubbing those hard to remove stains." Gizmo Duck nods in seeing these guys understood & get the picture, and now they can get down to cleaning the worst spots in the restroom's plumbing system.

The hippo cringed at the thought, but the turtle just elbow him to not say anything as to blow their cover. After the duo moved away from the suited duck, they had a chat while going up to the building in question.

"So how'd you managed to get us those licenses, Bentley? We always read those instruction books, and never went to plumber school for those degree things?" Murray asked a very good question, the Cooper Gang may know about fixing pipes by instruction books, but they never went to get pro-licenses?

"They're forgery Murray, but they're pretty convenient to fool even train professions, so we should be A-Okay from here." Bentley whispered to explain that he made those fake licenses to get them pass the heavy guarding part of the job.

"Well, I guess I'll handle the bottom plumbing while you handy the top section?" Murray shrug off his shoulders in seeing that if they gotta do what they are disguise to do, he'll take the low road, and Bentley gets the high road.

"Yes, and while my robotic arms handle…cleanliness, I'll be able to hack to learn what kinda security Scrooge's compound has for our later objective." Bentley issued off in what he'll be doing in a multitask work in doing some plumbing while getting intel on Scrooge's defense system.

With that safely in mind, the two 'plumbers' make their way inside Scrooge's Money Bin. After entering, it be a while before they get the job done, on more accounts then expected. Some images show the duo performing their jobs, such as Bentley's robotic arms stretching off to use a toilet snake to clean out the pipes while Murray uses a plunger to plunge a toilet, and boy did the big guy do something around there with his awesome strength. Bentley managed to locate Scrooge McDuck's security system, as he press a button on the duck's desk, and brought up a large monitor and controls system were four users can control all the security systems build around the Money Bin. It was tricky, the turtle almost fell off his wheelchair in seeing such top of the line tech, so he worked fast as he could. Around afterwards, did Bentley join up with Murray, they left the building, pass Gizmo Duck when they got in their ride, wave goodbye before getting out of sight.

---

Later on, around night time, was everything quiet, including around the Money Bin with only it's lights focusing on such a marvel structure. Little did anyone know, that a van pulled up behind a corner, hidden from any other viewer's eyes. And out came three shadowy figures approaching the building, all getting ready here; for the Cooper Gang was coming into the town of Duckburg to pull off a heist; Scrooge's Money Bin.

"So guys, how everything go?" Sly asked off as the tip of his tongue in how his gang performed?

"Well, it was a dirty job, but there is no task, that the MURRAY, cannot overcome!" Murray flex his muscles in announcing that he took on the challenge and done the impossible. "Even if that be unclogging a toilet." He motioned off that for him, he did the task of cleaning toilets, no problem.

"Let's try to forget much of that, and return to the mission at hand?" Bentley dryly pointed off in wanting to forget about as much of the plumbers side job to return to their focus at hand. "I've managed to find Scrooge's main security mainframe, I can't manually hack it without tripping off any alarm." The guy clearly exclaimed that even he can't break the system that's money's no-expense to be top knock for even his hacking skills.

"So…" Sly slowly responded in expecting there to be more to this.

"So like I said, I planted a bug to upload some info on the security here, and though it's painfully slow, we're a good 75% of what we need to watch out for when breaking in?" Bentley explained off from bring up his lab top, stating how much data he got on what systems of security to watch out for. "I've already done the first half by allowing us to open the front doors which would be lock after hours." He issued in what he's done to get rid of the alarms from the front doors.

"Then let's get started. Murray, if you please?" Sly nods with a go-getter face before signaling the strong-man in question.

"No sweat! Grrr…." Murray responded to Sly's request before approaching, grabbing, and letting off a growling noise to pull the doors of the Money Bin…open. "Clopfruvhmm…." Suddenly, the hippo managed to open the front doors of the building, first task complete.

The gang slowly prepare to enter, until Bentley spread his robotic arms out.

"Wait, let's try a dummy first." Bentley spoke off that they best test for any kinds of danger, and what better choice then a a test dummy. Then without another moment, the turtle took out a plush bear, and thrown it towards the pass entry when….

"CLRuspvhmm…." Suddenly from within the entry point, the two walls react to…press on the intruder. "Truspvhmm…" Suddenly, as it reverted back into it's original place, it left one flatten up-straight toy?

"HOLLY-MOLY! That could've been Us?" Murray yelped out loud in witnessing the devastation that trap could've put them through.

"And this is just the beginning, guys? Who 'knows' what other sets of traps await us?" Bentley explained out the serious case of them needing to be careful of what 'else' is ahead of them.

"Then guide me while I dodge this here first, pal." Sly stated off to Bentley with a confident grin in seeing where this would go…for him.

Sly had to time this right before Bentley could even say 'when', and then the thief dash on through. "CLRsupvhmm…." And like before, the two wall points squeezed in to crush the target. "TRuspvhmm…" As the walls were reverting back to where they position, Murray & Bentley sign with relief, seeing Sly managed to get across without getting crushed to death.

"See, nothing to…?" Sly shrug off to plainly state that was a no brainer, but...

"Sly, heads up!" Murray shouted from pointing at something he and Bentley had shock eyes in noticing.

And the raccoon went on instinct in sensing something up by his friends reaction, and soon duck down low.

"PRusvhmmm…BAMgruvhmmm!" Without warning, a giant mechanical fist popped out like a spring-jack, and Murray stood before Bentley to shield him by putting his palms against the punch. That force push the hippo back, but luckily did not harm him at all while Bentley sign in relief, as did Sly, that was a close one.

"Few….You almost got sucker punch there, pal?" Murray sign in relief to seeing that was a close one once again, and that Sly managed to not get hit by that trap.

"Not as much as you guys were almost getting the punch line? Good save there, Murray." Sly stood up & away from where he stood with a smile in giving some credit to the hippo's brave deed, which made him blush a bit.

"Sly, there's an off switch for these two traps, do you see them?" Bentley asked off from where Sly was, and hoped the raccoon could find where to turn off these things so the rest can follow.

"I see it." Sly smiled in finding a switch off the side of the wall that was easily spotted. "Flick!/Truspvhmm…" With a flip of a switch, the security system for this floor, was shutting down. "And I've done it." He smiled to state to his friends direction, that he's already completed the task at hand.

Now the gang were upstairs during the passing of the tight security. After passing through the first level of traps, so far, things been okay once they entered another hallway.

"Sniff..sniff…hmmm…something smells good?" Murray sniffed the air, and suddenly picked up the scent of something that smelled really good to lead him in a direction?

"Who be cooking at this hour?" Sly asked off in seeing where the hippo was going, he thought nobody was left in this Money Bin to even cook a late night meal?

"Got me?" Bentley shrug off his shoulders that neither he or Sly know who be making a midnight snack at this hour.

"Over there! Wow, it's a free meal!?" Murray pointed to see in an open room, a freshly made hamburger was there, and right for the picking.

"Wooh! Hold on there big guy, not so fast." Sly came around to grab Murray's arm to use all his might to stop his friend from entering the 'suspicious' room.

"Murray, you may wanna see what happens, when a mouse tries to get the cheese?" Bentley stated to wheel his chair over to the point, where he used his robotic arms to stretch to almost grab the meal when….

"CLAPfruvphmm…" Suddenly, a strangely made mouse-trap sprung forth, and it almost caught the turtle's robotic arm if it didn't retract itself in time.

"Aww man, is there even such a system to use food? Is that legal?" Murray moans to stop his mood to go now which let Sly let go of his friend's arm in seeing he was in the dumps now.

"Maybe for catching hungry criminals on the run that think with their stomachs?" Sly smiled off to make a sly light joke in how someone could use this strange trap for such thieves that love food.

"Focus you two, most of Scrooge's security was meant to keep out thieves, and especially the Beagle Boys. And that trap would catch one that has a strong hungering for food." Bentley stated off towards his friends about the situation and of what they just saw in action. "Anyway, lets go through this path through the emergency stair way." He pointed to a spot where they can take to help them reach their destination.

The gang opened the door that would lead to such stairs, just one problem? Up the emergency rail of stairs, were blow torches that shot flames. If there was such a thing to take these stairs in emergencies, one has to ask, would they survive a fire, or be burn toast?

"Um, you sure the elevator isn't a safer bet?" Murray slowly asked off in thinking, maybe they outta take a different route to go up.

"Knowing our rich adversary, he probably set up the elevator to trap us inside for the authorities to get us by morning?" Bentley shook his head in thinking ahead that using the elevator was a 'no go', and so this was only thing for them; terrific?

"Relax guys, I'll handle this one again, you still follow my lead and wait on my signal." Sly responded to assure his team to not get so stressful, he'll handle this part, and they just follow his lead to get the gang through safely.

And so was the moment that Sly Cooper took the lead, and quickly followed a rhythm of when each torch flares up and how long they stop to prepare another shot. It took some time and patience from the gang to figure that out, but Sly managed to help get Bentley in his wheelchair, to even the slow bulk Murray up the emergency stairs, and that was harder then just going down. After a while, they made it to the top where they found another door, where Bentley recalls, leads to the hallway, as they enter it.

Now the Cooper gang made it to the hallway zone of the very top floor. According to Bentley, just down this hall, is where Scrooge's office is located, and his vault filled with money. Course, the hallway across was flatten squares of light tan & brown colors in a strange pattern.

"Okay Sly, I've cracked the coding on what else is here, and you won't like it?" Bentley stated off in letting Sly know something else that was a mist here. "You have to step on the right spot, or it'll activate another trap." Yep, the smart turtle has gone to state one good, and one bad state.

"And what pray tell, is this suppose to be, if it's a hop-scotch game?" Sly asked off in what his pal was gonna say in seeing the flooring & figure they have to hop across the area.

"I love hop-scotch!" Murray exclaimed off with a smile in knowing this game all too well.

"Just pay attention? Look." Bentley stated off from holding a nickel in his hand, planning another demonstration of 'heat' they gotta watch out for here.

The turtle threw a coin across the floor…where it lands on a tan square, and then…. "CRUSAHFrupvhmm…." Suddenly, a hidden pillar fell from above, and smashed where the target was. As soon as it went back up into it's place, the coin was….flatten to the point it was thin?

"Wooh! That's a game I'm not sure my bulky self can make it through…gulp….without getting flatten to a pancake?" Murray gulped in being a bit nervous that one wrong step, and he'll be crushed by a ceiling pillar?

"Ease up Murray, Bentley said if we step on the 'wrong' path. So we just stay clear of the traps and step on the non-trap ones." Sly patted his big nervous friend to calm his nerves and that they can do this, so long as they watch their step.

"Right, the brown pavements are okay, but step off it and onto the other, and you saw what happen." Bentley pointed out which step square was safe for them, and they just had to step across in a diagonal matter then a straight way.

Now the gang was gonna need some luck here, cause Murray had to be careful of how he stepped, Bentley used his hover function to help the hippo across, and Sly was a natural hop-scotch pro. The hippo had some close callings of falling or stepping on the wrong color square, luckily, Bentley had his robotic arms to support Murray while Sly had his cane help pull Murray towards the right spot. Soon after getting through that scary set of traps, the gang comes across an emerald light beam from the wall that stop any from going further in.

"Careful you guys, these light-beams are sensitive, if we make contact, a loud alarm sound will be trigger to be nearly an earful of pain, & we will be up to our necks with police." Bentley forewarn the gang that if they so much touch those things, a loud noise will not only hurt their ears, but alert the authorities of a break in.

"So…how do we turn them off?" Murray asked off puzzled in how they can get by, he's too big, and Bentley's not one to slip through such tight squeezes?

"Sly will have to maneuver through this. Neither of us could?" Bentley stated off the only candidate left to perform this tricky step of slipping through and not triggering these things, is the raccoon himself.

"Don't worry guys, if there's one thing I'm good at, it's dodging the beams." Sly smiled off to proudly state his claim in being a natural at this sorta thing.

Now the gang gave the one fast member some room to work, as Sly backs up, and then times everything right before….he dashes and times the opening right. Soon Sly managed to get through that tricky state without setting the thing off, an amazing feat few could have accomplish, even the others were impressed.

"Push the red button Sly, that'll turn off the light-beams." Bentley pointed to where Sly was, a red button from a wall was linked to this system cutting them off.

"Already done." Sly stated to push that button, and shut off the light beams, allowing Bentley and Murray to pass through & join their pal.

"Alright, lets keep moving!" Murray cheered to punch his fist in the air, time they continued on.

Now the gang managed to escape that trap, but there was still more.

"Watch it guys! This next trap is a real hammer-brainer." Bentley held up his left hand to cut his pals from moving a step further pass this point in recognizing this next set trap area. "We'll have to run across it before the entire left to right wall sides try hammering us down?" The turtle stated on what to expect of this spot that would be bad for their health.

"Drat! The Murray is fast when on the track, but only when he's in the van?" Murray crunched his fist in seeing he can't win this with his own leg power.

"I knew I should've pack that turbo-booster installment for my wheelchair?" Bentley signed to look at himself, if he installed something to make his wheelchair move faster, that be a life-savor for him.

"Relax guys, I got this." Sly held up his cane to let his crew know, that he'll handle this little task. "Besides, other then my life at stake, I'll just be hammering away here." He smiled off to make a funny joke comment about the situation he's about to endure.

"I don't know what's worst? Being flatten or getting whacked by your joke remark comments?" Bentley remarked off to dryly state in how he took that part in what Sly just said now.

"Good luck, Sly!" Murray held up his right thumb in wishing his buddy the best of luck here.

Now Sly position himself in front of the starting spot of the line, and then…he made a dash for it.

"WHACK-WHACK-WHACKvhmmm…." Suddenly from the walls, robotic hands wielding large slag-mallets appeared and tried to whack the raccoon trying to get pass them. "WHACK-WHACK-WHACKvhmmm…." The mallets kept up the hammer works, but Sly dodged to his left, dodge to his right, and zig-zag through. "WHACK-WHACK-WHACKvhmmm…." Murray and Bentley could barely watch, and soon opened their eyes to have a peek to see…their friend made it to the other side.

In a no holds bound, Sly Cooper managed to escape certain hammer-time, with the mallets.

"Sly, place one of my tiny explosive devices to blow off that fuse-box powering the trap." Bentley pointed to the black fuse-box off the side of the wall, once done, it should help them out here.

"Whatever you say." Sly nods before he reached into his pocket, grab an explosive device Bentley lent him, put the thing on the fuse-box, and set it to go off.

"Bang!" Suddenly, after a few minutes, the grenade blew up, damaging the fuse-box in it's act. And suddenly, the mallets came out, almost like they go out of control, but fell down on the floor.

"Yeah, you did it Sly! Now we can walk in without becoming a pizza platter." Murray declared off with a joyful tone in seeing they managed to get out of there without much worry.

"Only you could think of food when facing a nasty trap in our way, pal." Bentley shook his head in hearing the hippo compare that trap to becoming something edible for eating.

Finally, the gang made it to the vault area from where Scrooge McDuck usually does his office work in his own Money Bin.

"So guys, do I break open the vault?" Murray asked off if they can just go ahead and open the thing, as he cracked his knuckles in about to use his brute force to get the job here done?

"Hang on Murray, let me handle this." Sly held up his hand to signal, that he'll open the vault's safe combination.

"Sly you sure, Mister McDuck must know the combination lock, and I can't figure out what or where to access it from the data banks?" Bentley asked off from scratching his chin to study over his data, unable to figure out how to open this lock, Scrooge must remember it by heart or something to leave it out?

"Just trust me fellas." Sly assured his team that he can do this, as he came up to start turning a dial on the vault. "Click-click-click….Click-click-click…Click-click- click…CLUffruvpmmm…" Suddenly after a few long moments of fiddling around with different combination luck patterns, at that moment, something went off. "Bingo!" Sly responded with a grin, he's crack the combination and now it's finally ready to be plucked.

"Hold on guys! I just decoded something from Scrooge's security?" Bentley stopped his gang from doing anything else here, as there was something he found on his lab top. "According to this info, anyone that opens that vault, will face….Bertha?" He responded off that last sentence with a puzzled expression.

"Bertha? Who's that, some kinda wild animal?" Murray asked off in not following who the being called 'Bertha' was?

"I'm not sure? I can't decode fast enough to figure out just 'what' or 'who' Bertha is?" Bentley shook his head in being unable to figure out more, cause the uploading was not complete, so whatever was behind the vault was the final security to bypass? But he needs time to figure out just what the gang of thieves are about to face?

"Hay no sweat Bentley, we made it this far, didn't we?" Sly shrug off his shoulders to comment that they've been able to make it all the way here, haven't they. "Now all we have to do, is get this Number One Dime, and go." He issued the simple formally, they get in, get the coin, and leave, a simple pattern to follow through with.

"Then let's not waste anymore time, whoever this 'Bertha' is? Will not be able to challenge…The Unstoppable Might Of…The MURRAY!" Murray issued off that they get moving, and flex his muscles to show he can take on whatever this Bertha defense is, be it an animal or otherwise. "Grrrughhh!" Now the hippo grabs the vault and begins to pull it open to the left side after being unlocked.

"No...Wait!" Bentley tried to stop his pals from rushing things, but…to late for that.

At last, the vault was opened, and from such a fantastic view…there was all of Scrooge's money filled about, from a ladder to a diving board to go for a swim. It was all there, the coins, the dollar bills from hundreds to thousands, money sacks, gold bricks, jewels, and just about 'Everything' vastly rich beyond imagining. Why, there was even a big, super heavy metal military projectile range cannon pointed at the vault door, with rope sacks being pulled differently from the opening, and….wait? WHAT WAS HERE AGAIN!? A CANNON!

"Uh-oh! I think I spoke 'too' soon here?" Murray yelped with a surprise look on his face, he might have bitten off more then he could chew here?

"Bertha, Bentley?" Sly pointed off to sarcastically point off to his smart friend, who the 'Bertha' was that they had to deal with last, and was 'she' something.

"Bertha indeed, Sly? Now DUCK!" Bentley replied off to nod in stating, that there would be the Bertha, and shouted off that they duck and cover now.

"Where?" Murray asked off confused by the thought of a duck being around now before the other two members quickly pulled their friend down. And just in time too, before…another trap was triggered?

---

Meanwhile, outside the Money Bin, where all was quiet….

"BOOMGRUFRUVHhmmmm….." Suddenly without warning, a massively loud shot noise was made, and it busted out of the Money Bin. "FRuspvhmm…/BAMGruvhmmm!" The thing was shot across, and luckily, didn't destroy any building tops, but it did land in an opened grass zone, devoted of citizens.

There were lots of lights from other buildings waking up from the sudden noise?

"Hugh?/What?/Eh?" Many sleepers were waking up due to the noise they heard just now.

So make no mistake, if anyone that lives in Duckburg heard this, it means one thing…Scrooge McDuck's special cannon in his Money Bin was triggered? Question remained, who done it?

---

At this moment, inside Scrooge McDuck's Mansion, we see the old rich duck snoozing…or was until the loud cannon shot noise woke him? He was in his night cloths with a night cap, having a nice sleep until an explosion woke him…a familiar one at that. Especially if it's the sound of what one's own defense system goes off as a last resort warning of a breech alert to wake the whole neighborhood.

"Blistering Bagpipes! That sounded like Bertha?" Scrooge spoke off in almost gasping in shock, recognizing the sound his final security defense was suppose to sound like if ever triggered. "Gagzooks! Someone's breeched the final security of me Money Bin?" He gasped again in realizing what this could only mean, and he got out of bed to reach for a phone. "I need to contact Fenton Crackshell and have him get Gizmo Duck on the job." He exclaimed off in what he's gotta do here in order to get his hired guard on the job.

"Drigurguriiiiing…./Clank!" There was a long waiting of a ringing phone, but then someone managed to pick up the other line. "AUuoooh, hello, who's calling? And do you know what time it is to be calling the superhero hour at this hour?" A voice responded off in sounding tired, who be calling the owner of the phone line here to reach him at this hour?

"Who do you think knows your superhero hotline, Fenton? It's me, your boss, Scrooge McDuck!" Scrooge snapped off with a serious stern tone, telling his employee to know it's his boss.

"Oh Mr. McDuck, heh, what's with the early night call? Couldn't sleep?" The one called Fenton responded in recognizing his boss, and tried to make friendly conversation about what's happening here.

"Sleep is beyond our understanding? When someone caused a loud noise from a cannon that can blow up a large portion of land." Scrooge stated out with a serious motion in what happened that no man, or duck, can sleep through unless they are heavy sleepers. "Listen, get into the Gizmo suit, and stop whoever is getting to my money." He issued off in wanting this duck on the other line, to suit up and stop whoever is after his fortune.

"But that's impossible? The only ones that were there were you, your family, me, some plumbers, your secretary…" Fenton responded on the other line that nobody could have gotten in the tight security of Scrooge's Money Bin, except for those he's seen, which...

"Wait, hold on now? What was that last bit?" Scrooge stopped Fenton's sentence to ask a puzzling question on his mind now, something this duck said caught his attention now strangely?

"You're secretary?" Fenton responded in what was the last thing he said that was in the Money Bin?

"No! The first thing you said?" Scrooge shook his head in stating it was the 'before' part of that sentence Fenton spoke of.

"You, your family….?" Fenton replied off the earlier thing he said in his sentence next of who else was near the Money Bin?

"No, no! The one in the middle!" Scrooge shook his head twice in making himself be more clearer in what he's trying to issue here while almost on his last patience with this chatter.

"Me?" Fenton responded puzzled in recalling he was last seen at the Money Bin?

"Ach! I'm talking about them plumbers, you-crackshell?" Scrooge lost his patience and snapped at the duck for missing the simple fact that it was the 'plumbers' he was addressing of the matter. Those are the only ones left that 'he' doesn't recall seeing much at all.

"Oh, you mean the Bert & Murf Plumbers group? They said they do your plumbing, 'free' for an advertisement aid, and you should see how clean the restrooms are." Fenton spoke off in remembering the plumbers, and afterwards, check on what a good job in cleaning the bathrooms they did.

"You dolt! I never asked for any plumbers to visit?" Scrooge snapped at the duck on the other line in stating he did no such thing in hearing plumbers to clean the restrooms, even if his three nephews messed the area up.

"But their paper work was fully completed, there was no denying they weren't frauds?" Fenton responded completely lost, he check the paper work and it was legit? Nothing that was phony, and seem to be in order down to the last page.

"And I'm telling you, as your boss? That they WERE Frauds! I never asked for or sent any plumbers to fix the plumbing? They suckered you to let them in!" Scrooge sternly explained that what Fenton ended up meeting during that moment, was a clever group that fooled even his alias hero counterpart to believing such a story.

"Oh my gosh!? I can't believe it? And here I wanted them to help me and m'ma's plumbing?" Fenton yelped at the news, this was terrible, he was tricked? And he was about to ask those guys that were Bert & Murf to help at his place's plumbing situation, well that idea went, pardon the pun now….down the drain.

"Just get down there, and protect my Money Bin's fortune from getting stolen!" Scrooge sternly stated with a serious expression in wanting this duck to go and protect what's his.

"Right away sir!" Fenton's voice responded in sounding ready to do just that. "Clunk!" There was a hung up noise of the phone's being disconnected just now.

Still worried about the situation, the rich duck decided to also take some action now.

"Duckworth! Wake everyone up, and get the car around! Me Money Bin's been breech? As for who, they'll be sorry when Gizmo Duck shows up!" Scrooge called out pass his door to get his butler to get everything ready, he needs to go check out what's happening to his Money Bin. All while unaware that his best security system that money could buy in the world, was just best'd by the world's greatest thief; Sly Cooper.

---

Back inside the Money Bin.

There was now a made hole at the top, and those still in the building, peeked out from the hole to back in the vault where a smoking fired cannon was.

"That thing just fired off a 62 millimeter shell out of a highly fortified long state cannon launcher?" Bentley exclaimed off from being overly shocked in what they just witnessed, and survived from.

"Man, I never thought I say it, but I hate to have gone toe-to-toe with Bertha now?" Murray spoke off to look at the stunning display that Bertha managed to do here, talk about overkill protection.

"I'm guessing McDuck went a 'little' overboard in that last one?" Sly pitch his fingers in stating how 'little' over the top Scrooge McDuck went in trying to protect his fortune, even other places he's robbed never went so far.

"You mean the cannon, or the naming of it Bertha?" Murray looked to Sly in asking which was overboard first; getting a cannon or naming the cannon Bertha, and any pick is overkill for them.

"Guys, we're in serious trouble! That shot could have woken up almost 'half' to all of Duckburg?" Bentley waved up his arms in bringing their focus on the subject in what they just done and could have alerted an entire city of their heist work?

"Then we better get started, and find that dime?" Sly looked serious in seeing time is crucial now before instructing his gang in what they better do here.

"But Sly, there could be dozens of dimes around here? Which do we pick?" Murray asked off while they climb down a ladder to touch solid coin flooring glow, there's so much of the stuff, where do they go and find one dime particular?

"Just a moment, Scrooge's Number One Dime should be a special material? If I can lock onto the structure signature, I can figure out where it is?" Bentley spoke from holding a scanner device, and was using it to find a special frequency to aid in their search; and it wasn't long till he got something. "Got it! It's six meters to the front, behind that cannon." He pointed to where they had to quickly go to, in order to find their target.

Soon the gang quickly were running to get behind Bertha, and in time to find a pillar stool with a case that held a dime inside. Judging by it's display, no questions ask, this was the dime in question.

"Well, I certainly say, this here break-in is a dime a dozen?" Sly slyly spoke in using his cane to pull the dime case off the pillar to claim it while trying to make a funny joke gag during the hour moment.

"I still can't believe we're passing off a 'golden opportunity' to not take anymore then this?" Murray spoke off from looking around them, all this piles of loot, and they're skipping out of it to take one dime only?

"Other then making multiple trips, and the loud cannon noise, we may not have time?" Bentley dryly pointed to the hippo, they never steal all of this large amount of cash with their van alone, and the authorities will be arriving soon after the loud cannon noise.

"Plus, we're in a setup where we're not stealing from other crooks or thieves, and doing this dirty work for a sorcerer holding Carmelita hostage." Sly pointed off with a stern strict look, while this break-in was an interesting challenge, doing a dirty deed for a villain was not one of Sly's favorite things, there was no honor in there. "But for now, let's just quickly scale the outer walls and get to the van." He pointed out that they best make their escape through the most easily outside part of the building

They were in the agreement there, Sly & the gang were honorable thieves, so they'll just leave Scrooge's coins, dollar bills, gold, diamonds, etc. alone. As the gang ran to the ladder to climb out of the pool of Scrooge's fortune and approach a window of a view from their high view of their surroundings.

---

Now we see the Cooper Gang outside, scaling down the Money Bin with use of grapple ropes and hooks. Sly managed to scale down easily, Bentley used his hover-chair feature to make his wheelchair slowly hover to the ground. As for Murray, the big guy had to be careful from weighing a ton, but he was the last one to get down. The Cooper Gang did it, they broke into Scrooge's Money Bin, a tough job for any thief that's never been able to do it. And just when they were about to make a run to get to their getaway van...

"FREEZE!" A loud bold voice spoke, and from the skies from a copter off his head, was…Gizmo Duck himself. "Don't make another move, or I'll be force to get…nasty!" He issued off a threatening warning if these crooks try anything, he'll get rough with them.

"Yipes! It's Gizmo Duck!" Murray yelped in seeing the superhero before them, this was bad.

"The one and only! And I've figured you out!" Gizmo declared off in stating who he is, before getting to business. "You're not really plumbers, now are you? No, you're sneaky crooks trying to get into Scrooge's Money Bin." He pointed out who these guys were, especially after Scrooge explained it to him about never hiring plumbers to begin with.

"Yeeeah, kinda a late update, don't you think?" Sly slowly responded in stating how that fact is a little late now, even if this duck knows the facts after the loud noise alerted & Scrooge probably tried to figure out stuff in what happened with Gizmo Duck on duty.

"Considering what just happened, I'm just glad we managed it." Bentley shrug off his shoulders that if anyone learn the truth later, it would have been harder during the break in and the security.

"You're in a lot of trouble you know?" Gizmo Duck spoke off in getting the crooks to pay attention here and to avoid anymore embarrassing remarks. "Breaking & Entering, By passing Security Measures, and working as phony plumbers without a license." He was listing out a lot of stuff this group has broken so far that was criminal. "These are some serious laws you've broken." Gizmo Duck pointed out in how much trouble the thieves are in for doing the crimes.

"Oh come on? Is it criminal to clean someone else's toilet?" Murray complained off in stating that cleaning restrooms can't be considered a crime, more like a helpful deed, right?

"Well ugh…no, I guess…technical, there isn't such?" Gizmo rubbed the back of his neck to struggle with himself, especially in finding that one 'tricky' to debate on if being charged of helpfully cleaning toilets was even a bad deed at all. "But never the less! You've done the crime, now return whatever you stole?" He cut to the chase in stating his priority protocol in what needs to be done.

"But as you can see, we don't have anything? No sacks, no jewels, nothing on us?" Sly spoke in trying to 'con' their way out by showing no loads of cash on their hands, so they aren't even stealing all of Scrooge's money.

"Oh really, not a cent?" Gizmo asked off with a glare in trying to see if these guys were liars here or not.

"Well, we have a dime to make a phone call?" Murray stated to show the Number One Dime they had, only without the case in saying they 'do' have a cent and tried to make a bluff excuse with it.

"Murray, really?" Bentley rolled his eyes in seeing what Murray's innocent act tried to do in this situation.

"Dime, what dime?" Gizmo asked off in having his visor scan the dime the hippo held, and discovered something…shocking to himself. "Great Zookini! You didn't steal the Number One Dime of Scrooge McDuck, did you?" Responded off shock to see the dime, and was gasping in shock to not believe the thieves took the precious dime of his employer: Scrooge McDuck.

"Why so glum, it's just one of tenth cent to the rest?" Sly shrug off his shoulders to simply state that all they did was take a coin, nothing wrong or much there to get worried over, unless it was more then a mere dime to begin with.

"Never the less, hang it over!" Gizmo shook his head 'no' while making another demand to the group. "And for that matter, who sent you to get it?" He asked off in wanting details in who would want thieves to break into the Money Bin, only to take a dime?

"Well it was…?" Murray was about to say who sent them to do the deed, if he wasn't cut off just now.

"Sssshh…we were told 'not' to tell anyone under 'extreme', measurements?" Bentley silently warn his hippo friend about Magica De Spell telling them what happens if they tell too much, or else it's 'curtains' for Carmelita Fox.

"Okay, if you won't give up the dime nicely, I'll have to take it from you? Bert & Murf." Gizmo declared off in what he do, as he pointed to the turtle, then the hippo, and finally…the raccoon? "And ugh….um….hmm? Come to think of it, you're not in relationship with the Beagle Boys, so tell me…who are you?" He rubs his chin in not knowing who Sly was, seeing a raccoon was not an everyday thing in Duckberg, or what this band of thieves are, really?

"Well if we're coming into the light? May as well come clean." Sly shrug off his shoulders in seeing it's time they got introduced here. "That's Bentley, the tech genius, Murray, the strong-man, and they're with me…Sly Cooper." He pointed to his teammates, and finally introduced himself to the duck hero here, so now everyone is formally well noted of the other person.

"So you reveal yourselves & your true colors, well now I'm….wait!?" Gizmo was about to reply in who the revealed group with Sly was to him, when suddenly, something caught his attention just now. "Did you just say you're name was…Sly Cooper?" Gizmo pointed to the raccoon in asking for something that almost brought a worry face on the duck hero, something about the name stir his memories now.

"That's me." Sly smiled to reply in that being his name alright, no doubt about it.

"Not 'THE' Sly Cooper?" Gizmo Duck yelped out in shock, as in he can't believe he's actually seeing Sly Cooper before him. "The World's Greatest Thief, the most impossible thief to catch, master of disguises, breaking in impossible security systems, and on Interpol's Wanted list?" He exclaimed out all the stuff that this raccoon was known for, and every bit of it made even 'him' quiver in not believing this for himself. He was challenging the best thief the world has ever acknowledged.

"Wow, we're famous even here?" Murray rub his forehead in feeling kinda happy to know that they are well-known in this place.

"I can pretty much image it." Bentley waved off his left hand to Murray in figuring that even in Duckburg, the folks that live here know about the Cooper Gang, with Sly as the leader.

"Galloping Gagmits! So even the famous thief is here to target the richest duck in the world?" Gizmo Duck responded in surprise in now seeing he has the greatest thief to deal with. "Well, not on Gizmo Duck's watch!" The duck in the suit got into a serious expression mode to be ready to take on such 'Big-Shots' robbing his boss' fortune, even if it's only one dime.

"Normally, I rather avoid you, but we're kinda in a hurry?" Sly stated off in making a point in rather not wanting to deal with this guy.

"Hurry not, for soon you'll be behind bars!" Gizmo declared off with a heroic tone in what he'll do to the Cooper Gang when he's through.

"Not until you can stop…THE MURRAY, pal! And my, Fist Of Flames!" Murray declared off from punching his fist, igniting them into flames and started to swing a few right & left hook shots. And lets say that Gizmo Duck, was duck and covering from almost getting a face full of fist on a blazing heat temperature angle.

"Yipes! Talk about your heated knock outs?" Gizmo Duck yelped to duck away from that heated fist or two or three to so shots, and he needs to figure out to avoid it. "Grusvhmm…Prusshvmm…" Suddenly from the suit, came an extinguisher that spread foam on the hippo's fist, putting out the fire?

"What! My fist were put out…by sudsy foam?" Murray yelped in shock to seeing what just happened to his flaming fist, they got put out by such a stunt?

"You should have been told to never play with fire, little pink hippo. Someone could get burned." Gizmo wave an index finger to scold the hippo about playing with fire, it can be dangerous.

"Ugh, I'm magenta?" Murray pointed out the color difference he is, since most folks confuse by first guesses that he's pink, but he's not actually.

"Oh, sorry, color telling is hard with a visor?" Gizmo yelped to apologize in not really seeing well to tell what color the hippo was?

"Tufruvhmm…" Suddenly, something smack in the back of Gizmo's back helmet cap that protected his neck.

"Wooh, either the mosquitoes are big this year, or someone tried to dart me?" Gizmo Duck rubbed his neck to turn in seeing a dart on the ground, and found the shooter was the turtle.

"Yikes!" Bentley yelped in seeing that plan didn't work, so now he's gone to his next step….with his robotic arms out. "Fruspvhm-Fruspvhm…" Now the turtle was throwing about as much of his grenades off towards the duck hero. "Boom-Boom-Boom-Boomvhmm…." And each grenade went off after a little time pass, and exploded to cover Gizmo Duck.

"Way to go Bentley, you did it! You…" Murray came over to cheer for his pal, and looked at the display which by then… "Did it?" Had the hippo & the turtle confused, from the clearing of the smoke clouds from the explosions earlier, it showed Gizmo Duck was alright, he wasn't even injured?

"Think a few grenades could best me, did you?" Gizmo Duck dusted himself of the mess that covered him while stating this fact of the thieves' attempt.

"Great Shrimp-Puff! This guy's really tough to handle?" Bentley cried out in shock, how can they take down someone that is well protected?

"Surrender now, or…yoink!?" Gizmo almost said, if not for a cane that pulled his tire that made him fall. "Hey!" He looked behind him to see Sly Cooper was the one that tripped up his act to almost go after the others.

"Guys, get the van! I'll hold him off!" Sly instructed his team to get their van ready while he handles things here with Gizmo Duck.

"That's crazy, Sly? You saw what he can do?" Murray spoke off to his pal that him fighting the superhero alone, it's crazy talk.

"Trust me, get going!" Sly assured his pals that he'll be okay, right now, they need the van, asap.

"Come on Murray." Bentley grabbed the hippo's arm to drag Murray off to get away while Sly gave them their chance.

Now it was down to Sly VS. Gizmo Duck, a great thief against a superhero, what kinda outcome can one get out of this?

"You appear to have wanted your cohorts to escape, but they shan't escape me!" Gizmo Duck exclaimed in seeing Sly's plan, but it won't work with him around.

"Not that I have a problem with you? But I've dealt with outwitting & beating other cops on my tail." Sly cross his arms in stating a fact while looking pretty calm during his showdown here.

"Then maybe you should see my grip point!" Gizmo Duck declared off in getting himself ready to snatch the crook where he stands. "Grusvhmmm…" Suddenly, the duck's arms stretched off to apprehend the thief.

"Wooh!" Sly duck down, but one of Gizmo's hands snatched off his cap.

"Drag, only got the cap?" Gizmo cursed his loose hold to miss the raccoon and got only a part of his clothing?

"I have another gander at that cap if I were you?" Sly smirked in pointing something out, as he suddenly pulled out another cap to put on his head.

"Hugh?" Gizmo looked puzzled, but not as much as when he saw the cap he held was….flashing red? "Bep-beep-beep…/BOOMFruvhmmm…." Suddenly, the cap was reacting like a red beeper before exploding that covered the duck's sight. "Cough-cough, exploding caps, where did they make such materials?" Gizmo Duck coughed off to ask where such materials could even be made around here?

"When I use my family's Exploding Hat's Trick, it works." Sly lean on his cane to calmly state it was a technique he got from his family's history of thieves.

"You won't escape this!" Gizmo Duck snapped off with looking determine now at the Cooper. "Poofruvhmm.../Gripvhmm…" Gizmo Duck fired a net, but suddenly on contact, it slip through Sly's body? "What the…" He saw the feature of Sly Cooper's body look like it was…a projection image?

"Yo, ever seen a Decoy, you just did?" Sly spoke from appearing on another side of the field, much to Gizmo Duck's surprise.

"Now I know why you're the best thief? But I'll stop you where you stand." Gizmo declared off to rev up his tire, and charged for the raccoon…or so it would have seen?

"BangBang-Bang-Bang-Bang!/Bam-Bam-Bam-Bamfruvhmm…. " Suddenly, the Cooper Van pulled up near Sly, and started to bring out it's gatling gun to fire off multiple projectiles. Once all the shooting was done, there was smoke covering the area where Gizmo Duck was likely out cold.

"Sly, we made it!" Bentley peeked out from the passenger side to greet his friend with relief that they stopped Gizmo Duck's pursuit of Sly.

"Good to see you guys brought the van around." Sly smiled to see his gang arrived in the nick of time, and with the heavier firepower to boot.

"Did we beat Gizmo Duck with that last shot?" Murray peeked out from the driver seat in wondering, if they managed to beat the superhero with that last stunt.

And as if to answer that question, when the smoke cleared, did the Cooper Gang stare in shocking disbelief? There stood Gizmo Duck, standing on his one wheel, and looking almost unharmed by that much firepower? Guess the suit was tougher to crack they they originally planned?

"Think you can hurt me with one hundred, seventy-two projectiles, eh?" Gizmo Duck challenged forth in stating how the Cooper Gang thought they had him, but they were mistaken.

"What the? He even knows how many times he's been shot at?" Bentley yelped in surprise to stare in wonder of another deed that was hard to perform under such measures. "If I wasn't vaguely impressed by his counting skills, I be more worried now?" The turtle responded that while amazed by such counting works, he's now worried about what happens now.

"Trusvhmmm…/Gripvhmm…" Suddenly, the superhero duck stretched out his arms to grab the getaway van. "Ah-ha! Gotcha!" Gizmo proclaimed in victory in having the criminals in his grip, sorta?

"Floor it Murray!" Bentley cried out for his friend to get them out of here?

"I'm flooring it! I'm flooring it!" Murray responded to giving the van more gas, but they just weren't budging. "But he's got a strong grip?" The hippo issued that no matter how much he tries, Gizmo Duck's grip, and reverse wheel motion, is keeping them from going anywhere with their van's horse-power.

"Guys, keep trying. Bentley, try to use your darts again." Sly instructed his gang to not call it quits, and for the turtle to prepare something.

"But Sly, the only weak point is his neck, and I can't get a vaguely good shot in the back, and with that guy's sharp wits of movement in the front?" Bentley was unsure how to use his darts when the foe knows what he can do, plus he can't get good aim with the duck seeing him.

"Oh, I think I found 'one' breech we can 'definitely' get through, wait for my signal." Sly winked off to his bud in stating he's already got that covered, as he whispered something to them.

Gizmo Duck was pulling the Cooper Van while keeping it from going anywhere.

"Hay Gizmo!" Sly's voice caught the duck hero's attention to turn where Sly was to his left. "Wanna try becoming a bigger hero by catching the Greatest Thief in the World?" Sly crossed his arms to taunt and bring the duck to come take the bait, which is him.

"As much as inviting as that sounds, I'm not falling for the Decoy again!" Gizmo Duck stated out with a stern tone, and soon brought out a bunch of weird gadgets from his suit. "This time, I gotcha!" He issued from his scanners from his visor pointed him to the right direction. "Pruspvhmm…/Bamgruvhmm…." And the suited duck fired off his weird arsenal that collided where Cooper was...

When the smoke cleared, Sly was projecting an electric field around himself that while standing away from that attack.

"What? But I thought I had the real one?" Gizmo Duck yelp in surprise, his scanners can't be malfunctioning, to have not found the real thief from the Decoy stunt?

"You did, but I used a Slow Move, to make your attack not so fast, and added a protected field around me while moving out with a roll to dodge them too." Sly commented with a sly witted smirk in stating how he managed to pull off that maneuver.

"Well I won't miss again!" Gizmo Duck declared out, he lets go of the van, and soon charges himself for the raccoon "You're thieving is over, Cooper! Nothing can stop…." He was announcing his heroic speech patter while coming up to Sly, and….

"Truspvhmmm…." Suddenly, the duck hero stopped, almost like he was...

"Hurry Bentley, that Time Stop move won't hold for long." Sly called over to his friend in the van to take the shot while he did something to freeze Gizmo Duck in his time tracks.

"Steady and…shoot!" Bentley made careful aim with his dart gun, and soon pulled the trigger. "Puufruvhmmm…/Pick!" He fired a dart which hit the tire that was Gizmo's mode of transport.

"Gruspuvhmm…" Suddenly, the time around the duck hero resume from where he last left off.

"Gizmo Duck-WAAAaugh!" Gizmo Duck finished to conclude his speech, but yelped when he fell flat as he was moving. "Gazooks! A flat tire? How?" He put his hands to the ground, stared at the tire which showed it was punctured, but when and how did that happen?

"Let's just say, that move I pulled, stop your time…cold." Sly pointed out to slyly move away from the duck that was on the ground. "And while it was nice hanging with you, we gotta roll off to St. Canard for a delivery." He issued off before quickly trying to pick up the walking pace of his, towards the daze duck.

"What was that?" Gizmo Duck shook his head from watching Sly move, but was mostly curious in what he lastly said…his destination?

"Hurry Sly! I think someone's coming?" Murray called out to Sly that they gotta hurry, he sees someone coming towards them.

"See ya! And here's a little calling card of mine for Scrooge to know." Sly stated to say before pulling out his calling card, and left it near the down Gizmo Duck, just as he rushed off.

Soon the Cooper Van was driving off with Sly Cooper with his crew, as they rush off towards one direction to later on…be out of sight. Gizmo Duck quickly used one of his many gadgets in his suit to patch his tire, and quickly refill it with air to help him regain his balance. Finally, after the police were there, who should also arrive then the limo that Scrooge McDuck rides in, when it stops, he gets out.

"Great Scott! What's happened here, Gizmo?" Scrooge yelped in noticing the area looked a bit messy, explosive covers and tire tracks, everything.

"Sir, I happen to have some good news, and bad news?" Gizmo Duck spoke in having some news he needs to tell his employer.

"Tell me they didn't take ALL me Money? Oh PLEEEASE?" Scrooge pleaded out in horror to ask that whoever did this, didn't take ALL of his money & fortune?

"Okay, they didn't take 'all' your money." Gizmo plainly stated the truthful fact, the thieves did NOT, take ALL of McDuck's money.

"Augh, what a relief? For a second, I feared the worst?" Scrooge signs with a thankful relief, for a second, he expected the worst to be told to him. Unfortunately, that was about to come up now.

"Instead, all they took was your Number One Dime." Gizmo Duck rubbed the back of his neck to sadly say, that what the thieves did get away with…was an important dime of Scrooge McDuck.

"ME NUMBER ONE DIME!" Scrooge snapped out loud in terror in hearing this news, making the suited duck yelp back by the tone he received. "Who stole it Gizmo? Magica? It had to be, she's the only one that wants it? The Beagle Boys would have gone for the rest of me money." The old rich duck stated in knowing those that would come after his fortune, the usual ones want it all, but for one particular dime…was of only one type of foe there.

"No sir, it wasn't the Beagle Boys, or even Magica De Spell. It was someone new, I'm afraid to say." Gizmo shook his head in stating this serious matter, just as McDuck's entire group from his mansion home came over.

"Well then, OUT with it? Who was it?" Scrooge asked off in starting to loose patience, who have done the impossible to breech his most secure money bin & just taken his dime?

"You may not believe it, heck, even 'I', can't believe it myself, but…?" Gizmo Duck proclaimed forth that what he has to tell, is gonna be very hard for anyone to believe, but it's the truth. "The thief that broke into your Money Bin, & best'd your traps, and sadly best'd me was….Sly Cooper." Gizmo sadly stated in 'who' the thief was that has outwitted all of Scrooge's defenses & traps, and taken something from his Money Bin.

Now everyone with McDuck absorbed this info in shocking amazement, there isn't any that hasn't heard of Sly Cooper, or the Cooper Clan that has been going on for generations.

"Cooper? Naaugh, it can't be?" Scrooge responded off in surprise with wide eyes, and tried to push off such a belief, it was too shocking to accept. "The World's Greatest Thief, has broken into me Money Bin, when no other thief has?" He stated off that after everything he's went through to protect his money, one renown thief did the impossible.

"Quacker-roonee? That's something else?" Huey responded in surprise to learn about something like this even happened in their home town.

"Beating Uncle Scrooge's system is no easy pie?" Louie stated in knowing how tough it is to break into a rich duck's security system, like their uncle here.

"Guess that's why he's a great thief?" Dewey shrug off his shoulders in simply thinking that Sly Cooper earn that 'title' name, for a reason alright.

"Oh, this is terrible? My reputation is about to down the drain?" Scrooge held his cheeks to fall on his behind in becoming depressed in what's happened to him now.

"Why's that, Uncle Scrooge?" Webby approached her uncle with an innocent puzzled face, why was Scrooge feeling more down in the dumps then usual?

"Oh Webby-girl? If folks learn that even my best security & best bodyguard couldn't stop the World's Greatest Thief, then what does that make me?" Scrooge shook his head to sadly declare how when word gets out of Sly Cooper getting his attention on his fortune, trouble will start blooming. "Why, I'll be talked about behind me back, people saying that the richest duck, lost out to the best thief, and that thief, taunts me by not bothering to take ALL my fortune, just the rare dime that help me start it all? It's the biggest blow to a rich duck's pride." To Scrooge, while he may have his fortune, having a thief taunt someone that they best'd what they had to offer, and rather then rob him entirely, just take a trinket for a show of proof, and then no one will wanna think highly of a rich duck after that.

"There-there Mr. McDuck, I'm sure we can get back your dime." Mrs. Beakley patted her employer to be motherly in looking on a brighter side, like getting back what was stolen.

"Against the thief that best'd everything I had to stop others, where could I begin?" Scrooge looked to his maid with baffle eyes, not believing it was possible at all now.

"Tis true what Mrs. Beakley says, sir, if we have a clue, then we can figure out where the thief is located." Duckworth motioned off to his employer that if they have a clue to where 'Sly Cooper' took the dime, they can find it & retrieve it.

"Say now, speaking of which? I overheard Sly say he had to make a delivery, he must be referring to the dime? He was probably hired to snatch it?" Gizmo Duck rubbed his chin to ponder a bit in realizing that he 'did' hear Sly say about taking the dime somewhere, and if that's so, then he and his gang must be working with someone that hired them to pull the crime?

"Then whoever is pulling Sly's strings, we'll learn not to pull my own!? Where did he say he go off to?" Scrooge stood up in feeling both angry and determine to find who's the reason that his dime got stolen, and with the best thief the world has come to know….to do the deed.

"St. Canard, Mr. McDuck." Gizmo Duck stated off in notifying the location the Cooper Gang are heading for, even as they speak.

"In that case, we'll have to travel there ourselves." Scrooge exclaimed to himself in seeing they'll have to reach St. Canard quickly now. "Duckworth, contact Launchpad McQuack and have him prepare to hear everything I have to say." The old duck turn to his butler to ready his phone to contact someone 'he' knows, lives in that particular area.

"Right away, sir." Duckworth responded with an up-high response before quickly getting to the limo for the phone.

"Why you wanna call Launchpad now, Uncle Scrooge?" Dewey asked his uncle in why he wants to chat with someone they know now suddenly?

"Because Dewey, he's there at the moment." Scrooge stated off to mention where Launchpad currently is, is in St. Canard, the place the Cooper Gang are heading to.

"Does that mean you want him to help?" Louie asked off next in what their uncle is planning on doing, have Launchpad find the world's best thief.

"Or is it someone else you want?" Huey asked an interesting question, if it's not Launchpad to aid them, is it someone that their friend knows that can help?

"Aye, a bit of both." Scrooge nods in responding to those questions in what he's planning to do. "Launchpad may be thick, but he's with another hero in that area to at least help keep Sly Cooper at bay long enough to stop his delivery to whoever wants me dime." He explained the basic planning he has, get Launchpad to stall with the thief with another hero in the area, until he and those in Duckburg, can arrive to retrieve what's his.

"In that case, I'll go off ahead!" Gizmo issued forth what he'll do while getting his copter from his forehead out to start rotating. "Don't worry everyone, I'll help find Launchpad & St. Canards' protector of the night; Darkwing Duck." Gizmo Duck proclaimed in planning to meet up with the mentioned duo, and aid in stopping the thieves.

"Goodbye, goodbye!" Soon the little ducklings waved farewell, as Gizmo Duck took off to quickly get himself to St. Canard ahead of them.

"Oh brother, if not even my best bodyguard could stop Sly Cooper, the chances Darkwing Duck doing it are a long shot?" Scrooge slap his forehead to moan that if a clever thief like Sly Cooper outdid him, and Gizmo Duck, it'll be a long shot to rely on Darkwing Duck to stop the raccoon, but what other choice is there? "Come along lads, lasses, we got a plane to take. Time is money, especially, MY Own, Money!" Scrooge issued to his nephews & niece to get themselves ready, they got to get going themselves.

Soon everyone was rushing to the limo after Scrooge told the police chief that his Money Bin is alright (for the most), and will have his trusted builders come to fix the blown off parts as soon as he can. And with that and without any unanswered questions to what happened to cause such a commotion, Scrooge got with his family to quickly drive off the scene. For their next destination, and hunting down a thief, is St. Canard, and where that goes….is anyone's guess?
