Later that night we now find all the Cooper gang with the exception of Carmelita all at the coffee-house ,waiting for their competition to arrive as each one of the Cooper gang just lay sit around doing their own thing.

This included Sly reading another section of the Theivious Raccoonus, Bentley and Penelope working on a top-secret project together ,Guru peacefully meditating, Panda king making another firework rocket, Dimitri admiring himself in a hand mirror, and Murray eating part of his lunch taken with him from that afternoon with Katrina, while they waited for the Gargon gang.

Suddenly the gang encounter a police car coming up to where they where at, and when it pulled over ,out of the car was a familiar badger that Sly thought that he would never see again, that being Interpol's one and only Sargeant Barkley ,who was promoted during the Cooper gangs adventures in Spain.

"Well well looky who we have here ,and to think I wasnt going to see any of you guys again, but was I wrong " Barkley said as he got a look at the Cooper gang all standing outside the coffee-house ,as Barkley then asks the Cooper gang " and what are you all doing around here loitering out of an old coffee-house anyway ?" ,only for the whole gang to reply "nothing imparticular."

Barkley who didn't catch on to what they where doing, then asks them "well why don't you guys go home ,and save yourselves the trouble of letting me bust your hides " ,Penelope then answered for them saying "well if we where ,the probability of us staying home and not gaining real life experience over the hard-working people around us, would possibly be a 99.91 chance ,and we dont want that" confusing officer Barkley more ,as he scratches his head in confusion.

Then returning back into reality, Barkley then replies back "wait a minute nice try girly, there is no way that excuse will work with me, even if I don't know what it means ,and don't think I'm stupid enough to not know your planning something, I've got my eyes on all of you" as he gives a mean glare to the Cooper gang ,before returning to his car saying "now if you don't mind ,I'm needed for a robbery to prevent ,and when I come back I don't want to see any of your faces here again got it?" as he drives away afterwards.

"Well that was rude, he didn't even say goodbye" says Penelope, as the Cooper gang all stare at the police car as it drives away ,only for Bentley to tell her"let him go Penelope ,he isnt worth it" then Panda king steps in to say "but still ,he shall return and when he views us still remaining on this spot, what shall we do then when he sees we did not do as he told us to?"

Hearing this that's when Sly answers the Panda King, by saying "just leave him to me pal, I have a way of talking my way out of the eyes of the law " ,however there is when Dimitri then asks Sly "and how do you plan to do that bro, that copper looks like he's got eyes on the back of his head", only for Sly to answer him saying " easy ,cops these days believe everything in newspapers about us ,so I suggest we give those guys those kinds of stories ,and they'll be off our back in no time."

Not satisfied with this idea ,Dimitri then decided to test it out saying "OK prove it ,if its such a hot idea then say that I was sergeant Barkley ,and I caught you here in the middle of the street ,and say "hey you give me one good reason why I shouldnt bring you in?", what would you do?" as he acts like sergeant Barkley ,conking Sly on the head afterwards.

To answer this Sly then begins to sing about why ,explaining to the fake Barkley singing:
Dear kindly sergeant Barkley,
You gotta understand,
It's just our bringing upke,
That gets us out of hand,
Our mothers all are junkies,
Our fathers all are drunks,
Golly Moses,
Naturally were punks.

Then the gang follows up to Sly's singing with the exception of Dimitri as they sang:
Gee officer Barkley were very upset,
We never had the love that every child oughta get,
We aint no delinquents were misunderstood,
Deep down inside us there is good.

Followed by Sly repeating:
There is good!

Finally all but Dimitri sang together singing:
There is good ,there is good,
There is untapped good,
Like inside the worst of is good.

After hearing this Dimitri as Barkley comments on this, saying in a teary voice saying "that's a touching good story" ,only for Sly to ruin it by saying "why don't we tell it to the world", only for Dimitri to conk him again then say "just tell it to the judge" ,hearing this Murray then was given the role as judge ,as he was then dragged in front of Sly ,given a rolled up newspaper to use as a gabble, and a wooden box going up making it resemble a podium.

When the scene was set ,Sly who stands in front of Murray acting like a judge, sings another excuse singing:
Dear kindly judge your honor,
My parents treat me rough,
With all their marijuana,
They wont give me a puff,
They didn't wanna have me,
But somehow I was had,
Leaping lizards,
That's why I'm so bad.

Hearing this story Murray as the judge then sings to Dimitri Barkley:
Right! Officer Barkley your really a square,
This boy don't need a judge, he needs an analyst care,
It's just his neurosis that oughta be curbed,
He's psychologically disturbed!

Followed by Sly repeating:
I'm Disturbed!

Then his gang with exception of Dimitri sings:

Were disturbed,were disturbed,
Were the most disturbed,
Like were psychologically disturbed.

By the end of the verse, the judge begins to announce "order, order in the opinion of the court, this child id deprived on account that he doesn't have a normal home", and Sly then messes up again, saying"hey I'm deprived on the count that I'm deprived!", only for Murray the smack the back of his head with a rolled up newspaper,before suggesting "so lets take him to a head shrinker."

Then that's when Bentley was chosen to be the next victim of Sly's excuses, as he applies a fake mustache to his face ,and takes out a pen and paper as he begins to listen to Sly singing:
My daddy beats my mommy,
My mommy clobbers me,
My grandpa is a commie,
My grandma pushes tea,
My sister wears a mustache,
My brother wears a dress,
Goodness Gracious,
That's why I'm a mess.

Afterwards then turns to Dimitri as he sings in a German accent:
Yes officer Barkley he shouldnt be here,
This boy don't need a couch ,he needs a useful career
Society's played him a terrible trick,
Und sociologically he's sick.

Then Sly repeats:
I'm sick!

Next the gang but Dimitri them begin to sing:
We are sick ,we are sick
We are sick, sick, sick,
Like were sociologically sick.

After the verse was done, Bentley the fake headshrinker says "In my opinion ve do not need to shrink his head at all, juvenile delinquencies are clearly social diseises"then once again ,Sly screws it up by saying "hey I got a social disease!" ,only for Bentley to bonk him on the head ,then suggest "so ve take him to a social vorker."

Penelope was then the last person to be chosen to take the role as a social worker ,as Sly stands in front of her ,and begins to harass her playfully while Penelope tries move his hands away from her ,he sings:
Dear kindly social worker,
They tell me get a job,
Like be a soda jerker,
Which means I'd be a slob,
It's not Im anti social,
I'm only anti work,
Gloriosky,
That's why I'm a jerk!

Not baring to stand it anymore ,Penelope then pushes Sly away from her and sings:
Eep officer Barkley you done it again,
This boy don't need a job ,he needs a year in the pen,
It aint just the question of misunderstood,
Deep down inside him he's no good!

Sly once again then repeats:
I'm no good!

Followed by all of Sly's gang except Dimitri singing:
Were no good were no good,
Were no earthly good,
Like the best of us is no dang good.

After the verse was done ,each cooper gang member Sly met in order from Bentley-Dimitri begin to drag Sly around like a rag doll, as the knock him on the head, while they each describe what the trouble with Sly is singing:
Bentley:The trouble is he's lazy!
Murray:The trouble is he drinks!
Guru:(The trouble is he's crazy!)
Penelope:The trouble is he stinks!
Panda King:The trouble is he's growing!
Dimitri:The trouble is he's grown!
All:Barkley we've got troubles of our own!

Afterwards they all stand in front of Dimitri on their knees singing:
Officer Barkley were down on our knees

Then Sly sings the reason to Dimitri singing:
Cause no one wants a fella with a social disease.

Then finally they then sing one more verse before knocking Dimitri on the head singing:
Officer Barkley what are we to do? ,Gee officer Barkley...(Bonk) drop you!

After the song ended, Dimitri who then got back on his feet, was impressed with excuses he made up mainly working out for him, before he adds in "I have nothing else to say ,you got it bro" then from behind ,we hear a voice say "oh he got it, but does he have a will ,after we finish with him?" only for Sly to turn around ,to see that Tony and his gang where standing in front of him.

"How long where you guys standing there?" Sly asks the feline leader ,only for him to reply back "just to the part where you guys where laughing at the knocked over lizard, now come on let's get this war council started,were wasting time" as his gang and Slys enter the coffee-house ,and Sly who was the last to enter, says to him "whats the hurry, we can go all night if we have to" before entering.

Now that the Gargon gang finally arrive we now get on with the war council which will begin on the next chapter in the meantime will you please review this one and tell me what you think of it I promise in the next chapter it will begin
