Disclaimer: Howdy! I'm back. I know I'm slow at updates but now I promise to try harder to be more punctual about it. I've got two Star Wars type deals in mind. One for Star Fox and one for Yu Yu Hakusho. If I'm lucky, they'll be started in the next couple days. As for Sly Cooper, I'm gonna wait until the next game is released before I do anymore fics with him as the MAIN character. He might be a kinda side character in a few.





Final Chapter:

MISSION COMPLETE

Sly and Carmelita drove to the dock and found a large oil tanker waiting with a car ramp for them. Sly drove up it and made a slight jump as he boarded. They parked the car and were greeted by M, Q, Bentley and Murray.

"Murray, how'd you get here?" Sly asked happily.

"They got me." Murray replied as he took a bit e out of his hotdog.

"He could b in danger now that Mitzurugi knows who you are." M stated.

"Mitzurugi, he not dismantling nukes, he's stockpiling them to help him conquer the world." Carmelita explained.

"He's also making new weapons for his private army. Some sort of laser gun. Jet packs too!" Sly added.

"My goodness!" M replied.

"That's quite a story there Sly." Bentley said.

"Luckily, we know where his base of operations is. His private island in the Pacific, of the coast of Japan." Q explained.

"Looks like the only way to stop him is to kill him." Sly said as he pounded his fist into his palm.

"What about the arsenal? With his last breath, he can still launch em" Carmelita stated.

"If you can kill him, we'll send in NATO forces." M said.

"So, if we infiltrate his base and eliminate him, you'll disarm the nuclear warheads?" Sly asked.

"Looks like we've got a plan." Carmelita stated excitedly.

"Now listen you two, you will have only 2 hours to kill Mitzurugi once your there. By then we'll have arrived with a small army." Q told them.

"We'll carry this out tomorrow at 5:00 sharp." Be ready by then.

Sly and Carmelita went to shower and go to sleep. Q and M contacted NATO while Bentley and Murray, well, mostly Bentley, got there infiltration gear ready.

When Sly and Carmelita where in bed that night, Sly remembered one very, very important detail.

"Hey, tomorrow's the day before New Years Eve!" Sly exclaimed.

"Sly, are date isn't until New Years Eve exactly." Carmelita replied as she rolled on top of him.

"Well, were in Japan, second, to make the celebration in Paris, we better wrap this mission up quick." Sly laughed.

"Getting cocky ain't ya?" Carmelita smiled.

"Hey, were an unstoppable team, ain't we? Sly chuckled.

"We are." She replied as she snuggled up to him and fell asleep.

The next morning, Sly and Carmelita suited up and were taken to their V12, which was on a ramp set to go overboard. They were a mile from the beaches of Mitzurugi's island.

"Ah, just the two agents I wanted to see. You'll use the V12 to get there." Q told them.

"Were driving there?" Carmelita asked sarcastically.

"Yep." Sly replied as he got in the drivers side.

"Remember, you've only 2 hours to get the job done or Mitzurugi will escape.

"Got it." The two 00 agents replied.

Sly started the car and drove off the ramp into the ocean. Once in the water, the wheels became were tucked into the car and fins replaced them. A propellor popped out of the back of the V12 and they headed to the island underwater.

About 10 minutes into the voyage, they encountered a small patrol sub. It launched a torpedo at them, but they launched on at the torpedo and the two torpedoes collided and blew up halfway between the two subs. Then the enemy sub began to retreat through an underwater canyon. Sly and Carmelita pursued it. Unfortunately, in the canyon, there were mines. Sly was able to swerve around the mines, into they followed the sub into a cave. Sly got to close to one and it went off. The cave started to cave in behind them. The enemy sub tried to escape at full speed. Sly followed it at full speed. Soon, they exited through a large door that had Mitzurugi's company symbol on it. Outside the cave's exit was a large submarine dock with 3 nuclear submarines in dock.

"M, Mitzurugi's got nuclear subs in an underwater base." Sly radioed in.

"He could do serious damage with those. Use your V12's remote bombs to destroy them and the base." M ordered.

"Were on it." Carmelita replied.

"We've got company." Sly observed as he pointed toward 3 patrol subs. He maneuvered the car while he dropped 13 bombs around the base and avoided torpedoes. Then, he headed toward the island after he destroyed the 3 enemy subs. Once he was on the beach, he detonated the bombs. A large wave spewed up out of the sea. Then he used a remote control to activate the car's invisible camouflage. The two agents snuck through the forest taking out patrols until they came to a small warehouse. In the ware house, there was a large ventilator shaft grate in the floor.

"Looks like his base is underground."Carmelita smiled.

"Lets use this shaft to sneak in." Sly said as he removed the grate and jumped in.

"You first." Carmelita smiled.

They crawled through the ventilation system until they found a hatch that dropped into the security room. They jumped out and quickly shot the guards with their silenced pistols.

"Hey Sly, I think this computer console controls the security lasers and cameras." Carmelita told him quietly.

"Good, see if you can deactivate them." Sly replied.

Carmelita opened the panel underneath the console and cut all the wires. Outside in the many extensive hallways of the base.

"Good work." Now, Check videos that the cameras took before you shut 'em down." Sly commanded.

"Okay." Carmelita replied

Carmelita pressed a button and watched a couple videos.

"Mitzurugi is in area E-7. Were in E-5." Carmelita told him.

"Alright, arm your gun and lets get their and eliminate this bastard." Sly commanded. He started to get up and leave, but Carmelita caught his shoulder.

"Sly, if we don't get out of this, I want you to know that I love you." She said.

Sly looked at her for a tenderly for a moment. He kissed her.

"I love you to. Were gonna get out of this together, don't worry. I ain't about to pass up our first real date." Sly replied.

"Lets go." Carmelita commanded.

The pair made it to the entrance of area E-7 without being detected. Their were only 30 guards. They managed to kill them all.

"Easy." Sly told Carmelita.

"Too easy." Carmelita replied. Then she ran up to the thick doors opening mechanism. The hot-wired the door to open.. Inside stood Mitzurugi pointing a pistol at them. At is side with his new laser gun was Muggshot and along with the two were 10 guards with sub-machine guns.

"Drop the guns...NOW!" Mitzurugi commanded.

Sly and Carmelita did as they were told. The guards took them to another room. A bridge overlooking a deep underground chasm. They stopped on the outside of the door on the other end, still on the bridge. Mitzurugi went inside with the two agent. Inside there was a huge control room.

"Mr. Cooper, Ms. Fox, this is where I'll conquer the world." Mitzurugi laughed. "And you will be here to watch as my plan succeeds and your efforts fail."

"We'll stop you." Sly grunted. Mitzurugi punched his face and began to laugh.

"Fool! How do you plan to do it? I have ten guards on the bridge. Blocking you and I have Muggshot here with me." Mitzurugi laughed. As he laughed, Sly noticed that beside him was the bridge extension controls. In a split second, he pushed the button and the bridge dropped the 10 guards into the bottomless pit, screaming all the way. Then Sly pushed another button and the whole room began to shower in sparks.

"Self-destruct activated. Base set to explode in 10 minutes" Said a computerized voice over the intercom.

"Damn, these sparks are keeping me from the off switch!" Mitzurugi complained.

"Muggshot grabbed Carmelita and two laser guns. Mitzurugi grabbed two jet-packs and he tossed one to Muggshot. He blasted off through a hole in the ceiling and toward the surface. Muggshot punched Carmelita and tossed her toward Sly. As he had it halfway on, Carmelita shoved a sparking wire in his face. As it touched his skin, he was shocked to death.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Screamed Muggshot as he collapsed in a dead heap.

"Carmelita, can you find some way to stop this self-destruct sequence without hurting yourself?" Sly screamed over the crackling wires and the falling debris.

"Sly, take Muggshot's gun and shoot that green button over there." Carmelita commanded.

Sly took Muggshot's pistol and shot the green button and waited for a few seconds.

"Self-destruct sequence, stopped." The computerized voice stated.

"We did it, Carm! Sly yelled as he hugged her. A red laser blast singed his tail and in an instant, Mitzurugi flew by and grabbed Carmelita and flew back up the hole in the ceiling.

"Sly!" Carmelita screamed.

"Carmelita!" Sly screamed. "Mitzurugi, you bastard!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You'll never catch me, 007!" Mitzurugi hollered back at Sly.

Sly grabbed the spare jet-pack and Muggshot's laser rifle. He took off after Mitzurugi. On the surface, Mitzurugi sat Carmelita on a boulder and bound her hands and feet.

"Sly won't let you get away." Carmelita smarted-off.

"He ruined my plans, I'll kill him. And then I'll kill you." Mitzurugi laughed madly. At that moment Sly flew out of the hole and landed on the ground.

"Nice of you to join us." Mitzurugi taunted him.

"Let her go." Sly commanded angrily.

"Kill me, and you can have her." Mitzurugi laughed as he took off into the air. He fired two lasers at Sly. One took out his jet-pack and the other missed.

"Damn, now he has the aerial advantage." Sly thought to himself.

"Sly, be careful!" Carmelita screamed.

"DIE!!" Mitzurugi cried as he bombarded lasers at Sly. Sly jumped, rolled, and ran to avoid all twenty beams of red laser. Then Mitzurugi's gun overheated.

"What in blazes?!" Mitzurugi asked himself as he inspected his gun. Sly saw his opening and fired two blue beams. One took out Mitzurugi's gun and the other took out his jet pack. He fell 30 feet and hit the ground. Sly walked up to inspect his body. To his surprise, Mitzurugi attacked him. They fought until they got to the edge of the hole in the ground. It was 100 feet to the control rooms floor. Mitzurugi had Sly down and kicked him in the hole.

"SLY!!! NO!!!" Carmelita cried with tears in her eyes. Then Sly grabbed the edge of the pit.

"Still clinging to life, eh?" Mitzurugi laughed maniacally. Then he felt Sly grab his ankle and pull him into the pit.

"No, just taking yours." Sly chuckled.

"NO! Damn you Cooper. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH" Mitzurugi cried as he fell to the bottom.

"Take that, you bastard." Sly thought to himself. He climbed out of the hole and untied Carmelita.

"Sly, you're the best." Carmelita cried as she hugged him tightly.

"Yeah, but I think I'm done being a 00." Sly laughed.

"How 'bout being a police inspector with me?" Carmelita smiled.

"Sounds great." Sly muttered as he kissed her.

At that point, hundreds of NATO troops stormed the beach.

"I'm sorry to hear that, 007." M said as she walked up behind him.

"Sly, thank you for being good to your gadgets. Oh yeah, and you've been great. Good luck in life" Q said as he walked by.

"Sly, it's time to get things back to normal." Bentley stated as he and Murray walked up.

"Yeah, it is." Sly replied.

"007, I mean, Sly, Carmelita, be happy. We'll make sure there's never another man like Mitzurugi." M assured them.

The next evening in Paris on New Years Eve, Sly and Carmelita were sitting on top of the Police station. In the distance, the sky was lit up by fireworks of every color. The Eiffel Tower stood in the foreground of the fireworks. Then the biggest firework of the night lit up the whole sky. And loudspeakers all over the city announced "Happy New Year".

"Happy New Year indeed." Sly said as he and Carmelita said cheers with two glasses wine.

"Yeah Sly, it's gonna be a happy new year." Carmelita said as they tapped their glasses of champagne together. Then they leaned across their seats and kissed a loving kiss. Fireworks continued to light up the sky. They seemed to kiss forever, in a deep, loving, embrace.
