15 years later
"When can I take off the blindfold mom" the joyful fox said as he was sitting down on the couch.
"Soon scout".
"Hey mom".
"Yes scout".
"Do you think I can make it on my own as a master thief then having a team like dad did".
"I think you can do it, but scout, you need to remember that your father couldn't accomplish some of the things he did by himself, he had a team that was always there for him whenever he needed them, and if you go solo like you plan to, you won't have that help like your father did".
"Yeah I know that, but remember some of the other copper's from the past use to go solo".
"That is true".
"Besides I prefer to this on my own".
"Why do you want to go solo anyway scout".
"A few reasons".
"Can I hear them".
"Sure thing, the first reason why I'm going solo, is so I won't risk my teammates in danger you know, if I were to ever have a team, reason two, I want to prove that I'm the greatest master thief of them all, and I don't want any other people getting credit for what I did, and yes I know that sounds like I'm self centered, but I'm not, I just think if I didn't do it on my own, then I don't deserve to steal it, like I said that's just me, the third reason why I want to go solo is becauseā¦.well I just want to" scout said as he chuckled about the last part.
Carmelita smiled and petted scout's head "Even if you go solo, you know your father and I are going to be watching closely to make sure nothing happens to you".
Scout smiled "yeah I know that".
As the conversation ended, footsteps could be heard coming closer to the room where scout and carmelita were in, the door opened as sly, murray and bentley entered the room.
"Your late" carmelita said a little annoyed.
"Sorry honey, we had to do some fixing on the van before we came here". Sly said as he made a silly look.
Sly then grin as he held scout's gift in his hand.
"Sorry to keep you waiting son".
"It's fine dad".
"So you ready for your gift".
"I've been waiting for years dad".
Sly smiled "I know, well scout go ahead and take the blindfold off".
Without wasting any time, scout took off the blindfold from his eyes, everyone smiled as they saw the look on scout's face as he was shocked and happy from his gift.
"So I assume you like it" carmelita said.
"I love it" scout said as he got off the couch and grabbed his new and very own cane from sly's hand.
Scout's cane was something special, his cane was a metal staff with hooks on both end of the staff that looked the same as sly.
"This is incredible dad, thank you" scout said as he hugged sly.
"Sly chuckled, don't just thank me son, thank your uncle bentley, he's the one who made it for you.
"Thank you uncle" scout said as rushed toward bentley, picking him up from his wheelchair, giving him a bear hug.
"It was nothing scout, now can you please but me down".
Scout chuckled, "my bad, but I have question uncle, how did you know I wanted my own cane and not my dad's.
"That would be me" carmelita said as she walked towards scout.
"Mom" scout said surprise "how did you know".
Carmelita smiled "it was about a few months ago when I was by myself cleaning your room, that your was suppose to do before you went to practice with your dad on combat" she said as she flicked her finger at her son's head.
"Sorry" scout said with a silly smile.
"Anyways, as I was cleaning your room, I decided to open closet to see if any of your clothes needed to be wash, as I was looking, I notice a folded paper was sticking out of one your jeans, so I took it out and opened it and saw a drawing of a cane that had title on the paper saying (my dream cane) on it".
Scout face was red little as he felt embarrassed.
"I don't know why you're so red scout, the cane on the picture looks awesome" murray said as he held the drawing of the cane in his hand.
"Thanks uncle murray".
"I half to say, it does look pretty cool" scout said as he chuckled.
"Oh and by the way son, your cane can do that thing you written from the back of the drawing you made" sly said.
"No way you're serious" scout said in disbelief.
Scout looked at his staff and back to everyone.
"You really mean it".
Sly laugh from his son's reaction "give it a shot and see for yourself".
As scout looked back at his cane, he clicked a secret button on the middle of the staff causing the cane to split in half turning the cane into two batons.
"This is incredible" scout said as he was doing some tricks with his new cane in the air.
"Mom, dad, uncle bentley and murray, thank you guys for everything, for raising me, for being my family and my friends, without you all, I don't know where I would be if I have never met you dad".
Sly and carmelita both walked towards scout together and all three of them got into a circle and began to hug one and other.
"Don't think about that son, what matters is that you're here with us now, and me, your mom and your uncle's couldn't ask for anything more than to just have you in our lives, I want you to remember that my son".
"I know dad" scout said as the three of them broke from the hug.
"And scout I want to let you know that I will always be here for you anytime you need me, my most handsome boy in the world" carmelita said as she kissed scout on the cheek.
"MOM" scout said blushing from embarrassment again, "I'm seventeen years old now".
Carmelita started to laugh "I'm sorry scout, my most handsome man".
"Hey I thought I was your handsome man" sly said pretending to be hurt.
"Ringtail you became second ever since you introduce me to our son".
"Oh my dear Carmelita, those words you said to me are like a thousand needles poking my heart" sly said as he pretending to be hurt.
Carmelita rolled her eyes, she then grabbed sly and gave him a quick kiss on the lips, "feel better now".
Sly grin "yes I do".
"Good cause there still one more gift for scout" carmelita said.
"Really" scout said confuse.
"Sly then walked to scout and whisper to him".
"Me and your mom saw another drawing that you made, and we thought you might wanted to see it in real life".
"No way it can't be" scout said in disbelief.
"Scout go upstairs to your room it's in your closet" carmelita said as she wanted to see scout in his gift.
Scout nodded and ran upstairs to his room and opened his closet.
He grin as he took his gift off the hanger and began to change.
"Not bad" scout said to himself as he looked at himself in the mirror "okay this and my cane, is the best gift in the world" scout said to himself as we was wearing his thieving attire
Scout attire was a black long sleeve shirt with a light leather jacket that resembles carmelita, accept his was orange, he also had on pair of black cargo pants with a belt that resembles sly's, accept instead of yellow, his was a silver color, on scout's neck was a collar that had tag that was shape like the cooper logo, accept the color of the cooper logo was orange and black matching scout's fur instead of the original blue and white, scout also had some black running shoes on, to match his cargo pants as well.
After putting on his thieving attire, scout then walked back down into main room, where everyone cheer and whistle at scout as everyone loved his look.
"Wow son, you look almost as good as me" sly said jokingly, which resulted him getting a slap on the back of the head from carmelita
"Owww, I was kidding".
"You look amazing scout" carmelita said.
"So son, you ready to become the new master thief" sly said as he grin.
Scout looked at everyone, and grin just like his dad while having the eyes of determination like his mom.
"I've been ready my whole life dad".
"Good to hear son, but let's not think about thieving for now, let's just celebrate today and have a good time".
"Agree, now who wants to get some cake" carmelita said as she left the room and into the kitchen.
"Oh, the murray would love to have some cake" murray said as he ran towards to kitchen.
"murray save some cake for me to" bentley said as he rolled his way into the kitchen.
Sly began laugh at his friends as he made his way to the kitchen.
As everyone went into kitchen for some cake, scout stood there for a moment, smiling as he looked at his cane, because starting tomorrow, a new master thief is coming and Interpol will have their hands full once again.
Like I said before, thank you everyone for reading this story.
And I hope to see you all again when I make more sly cooper stories in the future.
