DL-Lion: Yes it is in the time line of sly 2 but is an AU in the time line.
Shark: I am back!
To anyone I missed I am very sorry but know that you have my deepest thanks for taking the time to read this! And now on with the story if you reach the end hit the blue button and make me happy!
Sly had heard the rabbit introduce herself as Alice. She was model tall and wore a red business suit which brought out her red eyes. Her black hair and ears were placed in a pony tail with the ends curled. She sat across form Neyla not caring that Neyla was looking over a file with her feet on the desk ignoring her. Sly listened intently.
"My employer heard about you through a mutual contact and was told where to find you; my employer is hopeful for you to enter his employment." Neyla did not look up at Alice but just flipped the page in the folder.
"My employer is willing to pay you twenty million pounds to do a trial job for him, once complete and if he likes your skills he will negotiate whatever price you will see fit to work for him. To top it off he is going to pay you additional five million at this moment if you agree to do the trial job." Alice picked up a black brief case that was resting by her feet and placed it on the desk and opened it, inside was neat rows of British pounds waiting to be spent. Neyla looked up and smiled.
"I am sorry I only play for sport." Alice smiled as well.
"I assure you stealing the onyx phoenix of Helter will be one hell of a sport." Alice placed a folder on the desk and Neyla took it and began to look it over.
"The home of Damon Loki; state of the art security, round the clock guards, several computer check points as well as scanners every fifteen minutes…this man spares no expense. " Neyla said going over the major details of the file.
Sly was intrigued as he listened. Neyla tossed back the file.
"Sorry not interested." She went back to reading the cooper file.
"May I inquire as to why you will not be taking the job?" Alice said placing the folder in the brief case and closing it.
"You may but I don't have to give an answer, now if you excuse me I have official police work to get to." Neyla's tone made it quite clear the conversation was over. Alice stood and pulled a card from her jacket pocket.
"If for some reason you might change your mind please call and do remember there is a timeframe for what my employer wants. Good day Constable." Alice stressed the last word with a smirk and left shutting the door behind her. Neyla stood and walked toward the window and began to think about the offer. Sly saw his moment.
"Hey cutie." Sly said and gave Neyla a quick kiss on the nose, Neyla jumped back with her hand on her whip. Once she realized it was Sly who was now sitting on the sill and smiling devilishly she relaxed and laughed.
"I must say Cooper you do live dangerously, coming here." Neyla sat back at her desk and once again picked up the file.
"Course I would expect nothing less." She tossed it in the trash. "What can I do for you?"
Sly took a seat in the chair in front of the desk. "How about giving me my cut of the goods?"
Neyla shrugged. "Sorry mate the cash is gone."
"How can you go through three million in less then forty eight hours." Sly asked not at all mad.
"Well you have to spend money to make money. Three million bought me all I needed to pull a job tomorrow night; this time take is around eight million."
"So instead of one point five million I now get four." Sly Said now sitting up straight, Neyla smiled coyly.
"Normally I would throw you in jail but you timing could not be more impeccable Sly." Neyla stood up and went back to the window.
"How's that?" Sly asked rising to join her.
"I'll tell you if you prove you can be a good boy." Neyla said tail moving side to side lazily.
"As if you're such a good girl Neyla." Sly said nonchalant. "All right all play along what's the job?" Sly asked.
"Well tomorrow night is the policeman's ball and it is taking place at the Louvre museum. While I myself have all the access codes hidden layouts of the place I need a distraction from head of security Carmelita, so you're it." She turned to Sly smirking.
"She's working on a day off?" Sly asked amazed.
"Ol' Ironsides never takes a day off. A matter of fact she is expecting you to rob them for the thrill that night so you being there is the welcome distraction I need. Do a good job and I'll tell you how you can help me with my next big job." Neyla finished going back to her seat.
"Will I get paid this time?" Sly said one foot out the window cane at the ready.
"I suppose if I didn't some little turtle might go emailing my secret hobby wouldn't he." Her tone was causal and Sly nodded.
"If that is what you think. See you tonight then say around sixish?" Neyla's Emerald eyes glowed and Sly blew a kiss and jumped out the window.
Sly waited till he and the gang were back at the safe house before telling them what had been discussed between himself and Neyla so as not to cause Murry to crash and to be a safe distance from Bentley.
"That is it Sly I am having you locked up in the nut house!" Bentley was typing so hard Sly was trying to figure out why the keyboard had yet to break under the furious turtle's typing.
"I hate to get involved in theses spats but Bentley has a point Sly, Neyla is the kind of person who can't be trusted."
"Guys I know she has her bad points but she is on the inside and not to mention she has a person who is willing to help her out in stealing so very pricy goods."
"You mean you steal the goods and she sends you to prison and keeps the cash." Bentley growled still typing forcibly.
"No Bentley some woman, who by the way was very attractive has a boss that has plans for the job and is offering a high pay for the onyx phoenix of Helter…even you know that is a high risk job for even us, but with the Intel they have it will be a snap." Sly tossed a chip in the air and caught it in his mouth.
"Are you sure she won't turn you in after you help her?" Murry asked from the kitchen table.
"How can you be entertaining this?" Bentley asked turning his attention to Murry.
"Well…Sly usually has good plans and he has a good judge of character. " Murry said in his defense.
"Fine two against one but when Neyla screws you over do not expect me to send you care -packages in prison Sly." Bentley said now pulling up blue prints of the Louvre museum and looking for very fast escape routes.
"Don't worry Bentley chances are you'll be in the same cell as me." Sly clapped his friend on the back and Bentley frowned and mumbled something better left unsaid.
