Chapter Ten: Confused...
Marta happily walks into her room. "Sly... he is just... perfect! No one complimented me like that!"
The young raccoon lied on her bed, smiling.
"Wow... I can get used to being stuck with him. Now... about what he seen... confuses me..."
Marta couldn't stop thinking about the fact that he mentioned The Panda King, and she couldn't stop asking herself questions.
"How did they know about each other? How did this all happen? Why did they keep telling me that the Cooper Clan was bad?! What did The Coopers do?! No one tells me! Do people just hate me? My parents left me so they didn't care who I ended up with!"
Marta became more and more frustrated.
"Why has this happened to me? Why is it just me that was taught to hate the Coopers?! The people who wrote all the books I read sure didn't mention anything about the 'Evil Coopers'! I was taken by a villager in China after the Panda King was defeated. She was really nice, but never let me outside for it was always so cold. Then the Klaww Gang took me, I was left with some small bird dude. They all treated me like crap. This woman named Neyla however, was nice to me. She told me that Sly Cooper is causing more trouble, and he's after me. That had to be a lie because Sly and I never knew each other. Well I knew him. Anyway, she then gave me to the Paradox family. Big family, and Cyrille was the oldest child. I stayed with the family until Cyrille started with that whole 'Hate Cooper' crap. Then I stayed in his STUPID blimp! And now here I am, LOST YET AGAIN! So I still don't know what's up with all of this... they all tried to keep me from Sly Cooper. Why? Why did Neyla tell me Sly was after me? Is it just because im a raccoon like him? I don't understand. It's just too much questions, too much I don't know..."
Marta yawned.
"This all made me tired. I just had to let it out..."
She rubbed her eyes and slept all night long.
Sly and Marta remained in Egypt, hoping their plan would work. Unfortunately, days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months. Sly wasn't so positive anymore that his plan was going to work. Eventually, Sly and Marta started to face that they were stuck in Ancient Egypt, forever.
*Weird, Marta's life has always revolved around Sly... Sly lost hope by now, seven months after his day leaving Paris. Will Sly forget about Carmelita and start a new life with Marta? Will Marta fall for him, or will Sly fall for her? Let's check up on the fox, see how's she's doing with forgetting Cooper and moving on.*
