Six Days Later: A Talk With Sly
Karlia was tending to her new house guest. He had been sleeping ever since she found him. The young rabbit re-moistened the towel on his forehead. The raccoon stirred, he was waking up. Karlia quickly jumped off the side of his bed. Sly sat up, he looked around at his surroundings.
"Where am I?" He asked the amber furred rabbit in front of him. Karlia just starred at him with her blue eyes. "Excuse me," Sly began again but the rabbit was in a state of shock. She thought back to the hours after they brought him to her grandmother's cottage...
"Curious." The older rabbit said holding a bullet she had just pulled out of the injured raccoon. "This bullet didn't pierce the skin as far as it seemed." Karlia crawled next to her grandmother.
"How could that be?" She looked Sly over. Her grandmother was right! The bullet only went through half the distance that a first glance would make you believe.
"I don't do not know, young one." The eight-teen year old pouted at the comment.
"Ugh!" Sly yelped. He was having a seizure of some sorts. The older rabbit rushed over to him. She held him down so he wouldn't hurt him self. A minute later it was all over, the raccoon had calmed down. "Bleck!" A mess of his last meal came up. Karlia's grand mother cleaned the vomit off of him with a sponge. The little rabbit turned her head in disgust. As her grand mother cleaned the sponge off in the kitchen Karlia looked Sly over just to make sure no vomit had got in his cut.
"Huh?" She gasped in her sweet voice. At the edge of his lips she saw a small, computer-chip like pill. With out a moment hesitation Karlia picked it up. She studied it for a moment. The pill was clear and looked like the inside of a computer. Not knowing what it was she called her grandmother back into the room. "Look, I found this." She held it up.
The older rabbit snatched it out of her hands. "Did he puke it up!" She shouted at her granddaughter. The rabbit nodded. "This is called a stasis pill and it slows the user's breathing down until it looks and sounds like his heart has stopped beating."
"Huh!" Karlia gasped. "Why do you think he swallowed it?" She was now the curious one.
"I do not no that either, but neither will this raccoon when he wakes up." Karlia stood silence in suspense. "You see Karlia, this little capsule also erases the users memory." The younger rabbit was appalled.
"Who would do such a thing to them selves!" She felt very strong about the subject. "Our memories are one of the most precious things we have." She looked back at the sleeping Sly. "Who ever he is he must have had a very good and valid reason for doing such a thing."
Sly reached over to the rabbit in front of him. He tapped her on the shoulder, knocking her out of her trance.
"What?" Karlia finally saw that Sly was awake. "Oh, um, hello." She said very shyly. The little rabbit felt embarrassed by her actions. "My name is Karlia." She introduced her self.
Sly reached out his left hand. "Hi, my is... My name is..." Sly couldn't put his finger on it. He searched his thoughts but couldn't remember anything about him self. "Do you know who I am?" He asked the amber rabbit.
"Unfortunately I do not." She told him. Sly looked determined for something.
"Where am I?" He asked her again. "And how did I get here?" Sly was hoping for the best.
"You are in my grandmother's cottage. We brought you here after I found you unconscious in the woods." She felt a pang of failure. "I do not know how you ended up there but you were in pretty bad shape but luckily my grandmothers a Wiccan." She said the last four words with great pride.
Sly knew what that meant. The older rabbit used plants and such to make medicines to heal people.
Bently and Murry were in their new apartment. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Both of them had nothing of their own. They had had one of Murry's racing buddies hook them up with the place. Murry and Bently didn't have to pay any rent until they had a job to support them selves. Bently had an interview that day at a local software company, he didn't know what position he was applying for but he felt confident that he could get any job he wanted. After all, he is a genius. As for Murry, Murry already had a job. He would wear the big hot dog suit out in front of 'Hot & Dogs.' They weren't to thrilled with their new life but they knew they had to take what they could get.
"Um, excuse me for asking but the night I found you," She didn't know if she should tell him. "Um, you called me Carmelita." Sly's ears perked up.
"That name seems familiar but I don't see a face with that name." Sly now added another question to his never ending list. 'Who is Carmelita.'
"And In the dark I'll feel the light! I'll be loved! I'll be loved! I'll be loved! I'll kiss the sky." A jumpy fox sang as she danced her way to the kitchen. She was getting ready to go out and celebrate her new out-look on life when the phone rang. "Hello, this is Carmelita Fox." She answered the phone.
"Um, yes hello Carm. " It was Reese, one of her friends down at Interpol.
Carmelita couldn't believe that anyone from her old job would be calling her, even if it was one of her friend. "Oh, hi Reese, hows it going?" She made a conversation.
"Carmelita listen, I thought I'd tell you this before anyone else from the office did." Carmelita could her the seriousness in her voice.
"What is it are you all right?" She was now concerned for her friend.
"No, I'm good. but listen. You see as Sly Cooper was being taken away." She stayed far away from saying 'morgue' to Carmelita. Reese always knew Carmelita liked Sly Cooper even if Carmelita didn't know it herself. "The ambulance had an accident and now they can't find his body." Reese was very upfront with the subject.
Carmelita couldn't believe it. She dropped the phone. The fox's happy, joyful mood was replaced with feeling she couldn't describe.
"Hello Carm are you there, Hello!" Reese didn't get an answer.
Ugh! I was having problems with this site. Did anyone else have a problem using their account yesterday or today. This is the third time I have written this chapter so I'm sorry if it seemed a little rushed and a little gross.
