This Story is about Ace, a Master Ninja and Master Thief dog.

Just another night on the job.

It was a simple job, go to Mesa city, take down Muggshot, and go home. But fate had other plans for me. My name is Ace, and I am the best at infiltration and fighting, so I was chosen for the job. I had gotten to Muggshot's hideout when I realized that to get in without being noticed by the guards, I would have to climb up the side of the building. When I reached the top, I proceeded to climb the giant fire hydrant and find a way in. After a while, I found a small window just big enough for me to fit through. I cut the window out, slipped in, and put it back into its frame. Then I silently dropped into the shadows and used my favorite trick of scaring the enemy.

"Muggshot, your reign of terror ends tonight." I said "What, who's there?" Said Muggshot. "Show yourself!" He said."Oh yeah, well what if I don't?" I replied.

"Then I'll pound you till you won't be able to recognize yourself!" Said Muggshot.

"How can you do that if you can't even see me?" I said while silently pulling out my swords.

"Like this!" He said, pulling out his guns and shooting everything he could. I avoided his blasts while slowly making my way around the room until I was right behind him. I jumped at him and yelled, "Surprise!" unfortunately; Muggshot turned around and grabbed me before I could bring down my swords.

"Hahaha. Now, say Goodnight."

He brought his giant fist down onto my head and I remembered no more.

1 month later

I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. Then I realized that I had failed. I had lost to Muggshot. My days as a master thief were over. How could I continue on with my former life when I had taken down much better opponents than Muggshot with my bare paws?

"I see you're finally awake." said a voice behind me.

I turned around and saw Dr. James McBark, the Expert Technician of the McBark thieving clan.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"Muggshot did exactly what he said he would," he said, gesturing towards a mirror on the wall, "we did the best we could to fix you, but I'm afraid you'll be this way for the rest of your life."

I swallowed. Fix? I didn't want to look, but I also wanted to at the same time, so I walked over to the mirror, looked, and gasped. My right eye was a perfect circle and was red, while my other eye looked the same as it was. My tail was ended with the head of a mace, and everything except my head, arms, legs, and tail was metal.

"What happened to me?"

"Muggshot ripped you apart, then threw you off the building, luckily, we managed to catch you, but not all of you was still able to function. But gladly, your days as a master thief aren't over."

I found a new hope. I could still continue with my life!

"So, anything else I should now about, Doc.?"

"Oh yes, well, we created an ionic fusion cannon, which comes out of your back. It works about the same way as lifting your arm. You just think about using it, and it comes out of your back and comes over your shoulder. Then your bionic eye becomes like a scope, you just center the desired target in the plus shape that appears in the center of your eye, and think of it firing, and it will. Of course it's like lifting your arm, so you hardly have to think about it."

"Cool, can I go do target practice?" I asked.

"Of course." He replied.

I didn't miss a single target, even the moving ones. I was ready. It was time to get my revenge on Muggshot. I suited up in my awesome new black armor, (all I could see of myself was my eyes) and set off for Mesa City. Upon arriving, I found that people had come back, and it was once again really busy. I went up to where Muggshot's hideout was, and found that someone had removed the giant fire hydrant from the top. I overheard some of the people talking about someone named Sly Cooper, a master thief who had supposedly driven Muggshot out of town. I decided to go and find this Sly Cooper. Maybe he wouldn't mind if I joined up with him. After all, a master thief needs a good crew.
