After the defeat of Clockwerk in sly 1
I saw the large metallic owl plummet into the violent bubbling lava. The menace crashed into the lava with a thud. I genuinely felt proud … proud I had rid myself and all future coopers of my clan's greatest nemesis. I remembered all five of my triumphs, from defeating Mugshot in Mesa city to the Panda King in China. I realised I couldn't have done this alone. Without Bentley or Murray I probably wouldn't have even found the fiendish five in the first place. Without Bentleys brain there was no way I could've broken into any of the fiendish fives so called impenetrable fortresses. Not only that though he'd shown himself to be a loyal friend one I couldn't do without. Also how could you speak of loyalty without mentioning Murray? He had been really scared at times, yet he'd conquered those fears to back me up all the way. I felt extremely privileged to have two incredible friends, no not friends, brothers. The lava in front of me was bubbling slowly and the separate parts of Clockwerk were slowly sinking. I slightly chuckled thinking it would be difficult for Interpol to fish them out. How unfortunate for them.
I knew I needed to be about of here soon. I just wanted one last look at Clockwerk broken and beaten. I clenched my fist tightly suppressing my anger towards him. I hoped my father would be proud of me for ridding Clockwerk from the Cooper line. I hoped he'd be proud of me, now a master thief. I took one last look before slowly turning away. It was like shaking a monkey off my back, like I had finally become a true Cooper. My personal moment of triumph however was short lived when I heard the shout
"Freeze Cooper" in a soothing yet fiery Latin accent. I turned around to see Inspector Carmelita Fox pointing her shock pistol at my shocked form. I mentally cursed myself for standing around for so long. The start of me being a master thief had not started as well as I was hoping if I was honest. I sighed,
"You going to cuff me Inspector" I asked dejectedly. She stopped for a moment looking like she was having a personal mental battle with herself.
"Not yet Cooper I owe you a ten second head start" she told me. I raised an eyebrow but she simply nodded before closing her eyes.
"10" hmmm what should id do. I quickly glanced around taking in everything around me. The team van was down a pathway behind her. I prepared to run for it although
"9" how unstylish would that be, I thought about what the thevious racoonus would say
"8" I could climb down the rock face, away from the lava of course
"7" however a distraction would be a more preferable option
"6" but what to use we were on top of a volcano after all. But that's when it hit me
"5" I relaxed, it was so simple
"4" I simply stand here for a moment
"3" then I stroll up to her with a swagger
"2"I wait for her to open her eyes to see why I hadn't scampered off
"1" then I cup her face and kiss her. It was the perfect plan I thought. All I had to do was cuff her to the rail with her own cuffs. I felt her freeze with shock … funny I got her to freeze. I lingered a moment longer, why not I was enjoying it before subtlety removing the cuffs from her hand a silently attaching her wrist to the cold hard railing. I then swiftly moved away glancing back once to see her love struck gaze turn into one of anger and bitterness. As I dashed down the mountain I heard her scream many curses, such foul language I thought impossible to come from such beauty. The team van quickly came into view with a beaming Bentley and Murray waiting for me. I high fived them as we jumped into the van and drove off narrowly missing police cars, sirens ablazing flying down the road probably hoping to catch me. The three of us laughed. This was going to be fun.
