First off, I want to thank you guys for all the great reviews and such. I honestly thought that it was ok but not that good, but you guys proved me wrong. Now here is the next chapter you guys wanted.
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Sly Cooper.
Ch.2: The Cooper behind the mask.
Previously:
"Think nothing of it; I think we all want the old Sly back," said Murray. They began to plan what might be the most difficult mission ever.
Now:
The plan was to take place later that night, it was really rather straight forward. The plan was to have Carmelita be placed in fake danger from a hijacked metal wolf. Sly was to come and rescue her and once he beat the wolf, Carmelita was suppose to tell Sly how sorry she was. They decided to go with a simple plan first because it was getting close to the down-fall of the Black Night.
Carmelita was in possession with the wolf. When Bentley gave the signal, the wolf would hold her like it was taking her away. (Oh yeah, she is also tied up, too.) She waited only about three minutes before Bentley gave the signal, and the wolf grabbed her and she let out a scream, not to loud for any normal guard to notice, but enough to let Sly know. No sooner had she screamed, Sly came and destroyed the wolf. That's when the plan started going wrong. After Sly "freed" Carmelita, he was leaving. She yelled after him, "Wait, Sly, I want to talk to you." Sly just waited.
Sly wondered what Carmelita could possibly tell him. With that look in her eyes, he could tell it was serious. "What is it," he said after she didn't speak for a bit. "I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for what I did and that I forgive you for lying. You had your reasons for it and they touched me after reading that letter," she said, hoping to whatever God there was that he would forgive her. "Please give me another chance." "No, I won't," he said. "B-but why?" Carmelita said as tears began to form. Sly only stayed where he was. "You don't get it do you? You think that just saying sorry will do it? Carmelita, I have lost to much as it is and gained only a little back. You already know how my parents died when I was young, how I only a few years back I got what was mine. What you don't know is that you aren't the first girl to catch my eye. I asked all of them out to dinner, but said I was just trash. Each girl was better looking and more caring than the last, but all treated me like garbage." Carmelita was shocked at that. Too think that he went through that as a kid. Oh, but it didn't stop there. "Each time was worse than the other. With each rejection my heart broke more and more. I thought for a while that I was never meant to love anyone but my friends. Only when I became a thief did I find someone who didn't think of me as garbage as a normal person. That someone was you, Carmelita." At that Carmelita was shocked, she was the only one. "But after what you said in the Ice Age, I realized I will never love at all. Of all people, I thought you at least cared a bit about me, or am I still the thieving vermin that you think I am?"
Carmelita was now almost crying. "But now I care too much to lose you now, Sly. I don't think that I could go on if you left me to be by myself. I want to love you but you won't let me do that. I said I was sorry what more do I have to do." She soon realized that were the wrong words to say. Sly snapped around with anger in his eyes. "What you did to me was more than what I did to you. I lied to love you, TO LOVE YOU WITHOUT NEEDING TO BE ARRESTED. WHAT YOU DID WAS FAR WORSE." He was all but screaming at her. "YOU THINK A SIMPLE SORRY WILL FIX IT. I KNOW YOU'RE SMARTER THAN THAT." Carmelita was in shock. She had never heard Sly yell before. "What can I do to have you love me again?" She said as tears were flowing into her fur. "HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSE TO DO THAT?" she screamed.
Sly only looked at her before saying something that totally surprised Carmelita. "I am a kind person; I'll give you a chance to take my heart back. I'll open it one last time, if you can't get it back, you will never have another chance to have me love you." And with that he headed to his usual hiding place to think. Carmelita was more than happy as she ran back to the hide out. She may not have gotten his heart back yet but he gave her a chance. "So, how did it go?" Bentley asked when Carmelita walked in. "He gave me a chance to get him to love me again," she said with a smile. "I guess that's all we could have asked for. Now the rest up to you to finish." Murray said.
Sly was out in the woods, not so far out to get lost, but not close enough to be seen by guards. He was thinking that the deal he made with Carmelita was the best deal he could have given her. He kind of hoped that she would win his heart again; he didn't want the guys to think he gave up on life. Hell, then he would practically have nothing left to live for. He didn't know if she could have felt this way about him. He may not like Carmelita, but he still can't stand to see a woman cry like she was during their talk. He could only wait and see if she could do it.
Well hope you like this chapter. My plan for this story is to make about 4 or 5 chapters before making another story.
Again I don't own Sly Cooper.
Well thanks again for the support.
Uum… check to make sure I didn't take anything. My fingers get sticky from time to time.
