Carmelita and the Cooper Gang were gathered around Bentley's room in the Cooper Gang hideout. They wee formulating a plan to stop and catch Carmelita's invisible cousins Rodrigo and Diego. Bentley decided to use thermal scanners on each of their binocucoms. That way, the Cooper Gang could easily identify the invisible beings. They didn't know where Rodrigo and Diego would strike next or what member of Carmelita's family could they kill next. Would it be her mother? Her brother Felipe? Her sister Loretta? Or her boss James Barkley of Interpol? It was like a deadly guessing game of who would die next. Carmelita wouldn't allow another family member or acquaintance die ever again.
"So Carmelita, who exactly is Rodrigo and Diego and why are they killing off of your family?" Bentley asked Carmelita.
"Rodrigo and Diego are my cousins." Carmelita said to Bentley. "I decided to live with Rodrigo because he was my cousin and I wanted to comfort him. Eventually, he started to control me and dictate my every move. I felt like a slave to him. He hated me. I couldn't take it anymore. I left Rodrigo. Then a couple of weeks later, I found out that my cousin committed suicide. I believed it at first. Then, when my partner Winthorp died, my cousin write a note that framed me for the crime. I got fired from Interpol. Then, a few days after Winthorp died, me and Sly watched my cousins kill my father with boiling water mixed with sulfuric acid on TV."
"Oh my god!" Bentley said.
"Yes." Carmelita said. "I have a reason to believe that both of my cousins have somehow found a way to turn themselves invisible. They have an invisibility suit. Rodrigo told me that he and his brother designed the invisibility suits. Rodrigo worked for an optics company."
"Why would Rodrigo and Diego use an invisibility suit to mess around with you?" Sly asked Carmelita.
"I don't know, Sly." Carmelita said. "But I'm going to get to the bottom of it."
"Ok." Bentley said. The Cooper Gang and Carmelita formulated a plan to defeat Carmelita's invisible cousins. They decided to use special infrared thermal binoculars that would isolate the heat signatures of normal people. It would only detect invisible heat signatures. It made detecting Rodrigo and Diego a hundred times easier. The Cooper Gang went their separate ways. Sly searched the city for Carmelita's invisible cousins. They could be anywhere. They could strike at any moment and at any time.
Meanwhile, two vulpines were in their car, driving toward their next target: Carmelita's brother Felipe and his son Justin. They wanted to kidnap and brutally beat the crap out of them. Unbeknownst to them however, Felipe had caught wind of what his cousins did to his father. He was prepared for them. The vulpine had bought himself some defensive weapons like a pistol and a Bowie knife. Felipe wanted to be ready just in case Rodrigo or Diego came in. He would be damned if the rest of his family would be killed by his insane fox cousins.
He contacted his mother Theresa and told her about his father's murder by his cousins. His mother was terrified. So, Felipe let the old vixen live with him for the time being. He wanted to protect his mother from Rodrigo and Diego. Rodrigo and his brother Diego drove up to Felipe's apartment. They parked their Ford Explorers in the parking lot. They got out of the car. Both Rodrigo and Diego wore T-shirts. Rodrigo's T-shirt was blue, while Diego's T-shirt was black. They carried their invisibility suits in their backpacks. They waltzed right into the apartment.
The two vulpines went up to the receptionist, who was a female tigress. She had dark orange fur with stripes. She looked up and saw two vulpines standing in front of her.
"How may I help you two?" The receptionist asked the two vulpines.
"My name is Rodrigo Fox and this is my brother Diego Fox." Rodrigo said to the receptionist. "We're here to visit our cousin. His name is Felipe Fox."
The receptionist searched for Felipe's name in the room book. She found it. Felipe's room was located in Room 105. The Receptionist gave the room key to the two vulpines. They walked away from the receptionist. Then, Diego and Rodrigo instantly teleported to the floor in which Felipe's room was located in. They put on their invisibility suits. Once they got done putting their suits on, both Diego and Rodrigo knocked on the door. The door opened and there stood a red furred male fox. This was Felipe Alejandro Fox, Carmelita Fox's brother.
"Hi, Felipe. It's Rodrigo and Diego." the invisible vulpine said. "We want to see you."
Felipe immediately tried to shut the door, but Diego lifted him up by his clavicle and threw him across the room. Felipe landed up against the wall. He fell to the ground. Rodrigo and Diego immediately barged in through the door. A female vixen and a 12 year old fox were in the living room watching a movie. They turned their heads upon hearing footsteps. They saw nobody there. Then a voice said "Boo!" very loud. The vixen and the young fox were terrified. They tried to hide, but Rodrigo grabbed a hold of Theresa and punched her in the face.
The vixen was knocked back by the punch. Felipe knocked Rodrigo upside the head with a bat. Rodrigo was momentarily stunned. Diego sneaked up on the vulpine and tried to stab him in the back with a kitchen knife. The vulpine turned around and dodged the knife attack. He kicked Diego in the chest. The invisible vulpine was knocked into a bookshelf, where a ton of DVDs and CDs fell off of the shelf and to the floor. Felipe reorganized the shelf. Justin was hiding in his bedroom closet. He was scared. But he told himself to stay calm and relax.
The twelve year old fox stayed still in the closet. He was silent as the grave. He didn't want Rodrigo or Diego discovering his whereabouts. Justin wondered if his father was going to be okay.
Felipe tried to fend off his invisible cousins, which was no easy task, since as long as Rodrigo and Diego were invisible, they could be anywhere and do anything they wanted to. Suddenly, a window opened and out came a grey male raccoon wearing blue clothing. He had a yellow and brown cane in his hand. Felipe turned toward the raccoon. He immediately recognized as none other than the notorious thief, Sly Cooper. His sister had told Felipe so much about her trying to arrest Sly that he had come to recognize him. He had only seen Sly a few times during the night time, usually running through the rooftops.
"Sly, what are you doing here?" Felipe asked Sly.
"I'm here to stop Rodrigo and Diego Fox's destructive rampage." Sly said to Felipe. "Your Carmelita's brother, right?"
"How'd you know?" Felipe asked Sly.
"I've seen you with Carmelita a couple of times." Sly said.
"My name is Felipe Fox." the vulpine said to the raccoon.
"How about we defeat your cousins together?" Sly asked Felipe.
"Good idea." Felipe said.
Felipe turned around to see that Rodrigo and Diego had disappeared. They had apparently left the apartment. Felipe searched high and low for his invisible cousins. He couldn't find them. What he foud instead was a note. The note was on the kitchen table. The note said: We have taken your mother hostage in your old childhood home in Spain. If you want to see her alive, We suggest that you and the Cooper Gang along with your sister Carmelita come to Spain and defeat us once and for all. Diego and Rodrigo Fox.
