First Meeting
"It's been three days," Carmelita said, observing Sly's laying motionless on the cot in his cell. "Why hasn't Cooper awaken yet?" She was talking to a physician.
"I've seen this before," he began. "He sort of created a personel utopia in his mind, like a happy place, and when that otter Unum pumped with that nerve agent, it sent him there. Now he is sort of in a voluntary coma. He could've snapped out of it when the darts wore off, but he chose to stay like that. He can just wake up if he wants to, but he doesn't seem to. Has Cooper had any emotional problems?"
"His parents were murdered before his eyes," Carmelita said. "And it appears that he has a deceased ex-girlfriend."
"Really?" the guy asked. "I've heard about his parents, but I haven't heard of Sly Cooper being in love. Anyway, Upon closer examination, I think he can be snapped out of it. We just need to get him to suppress a memory, something possibly happy but tear jerking at the same time, like maybe memories of that girlfriend."
"But how?"
"Well that Guru guy said he was able to connect people to other peoples' minds, and seeing how you're the specialist on him, I think it's only fair that you use the Guru person to help you flush out those memories."
"Me? In Cooper's mind? I don't even want to know what he thinks about to begin with. Can't we just wait for him to ride this out?"
"Well, we could Inspector, but that could take hours, days, weeks, or even years. Hell, he's likely to not even choose to wake up from this, EVER!"
"Fine," Carmelita sighed. "Like what other thing can I do? Bring in the Guru."
A few minutes later, three guards surrounding a koala appeared and separated.
"All right Guru," Carmelita said in a serious manner. "Your pal Cooper won't wake up for interrogation, so I need you to put inside his mind so I can flush him out of his sleep so I can chew out whatever info I need to put him in Heathrow Prison!"
The Guru replied with some gibberish and led Carmelita to a spot next to Sly's cot. Carmelita folded her legs like the Gur and before she knew it, she was in a room that was filled with images of Sly's memories. She saw one of Sly learning to ride a bike; she also saw one of when Sly paraglide onto Clock-La's back to smack that backstabber Neyla in the face a few times. Then she came across a memory of that volcano. She watched as she saw herself lip lock with Sly for the first time, and couldn't help but blush, only to give herself a mental kick in the head and remind herself why she was here.
'I'm here to find those memories. Not dilly dally, though still, it wouldn't hurt to see what else he has on his mind.'
An evil grin appeared on her face, and she went looking around some more.
'Wow, I never would have thought that Sly was so clean, I mean there is nothing offensive as far as I see.'
Suddenly, she tripped and fell into a memory. It was as if she really was there. She was at Sly's orphanage. She could instantly tell who was who. But no one could see her. She was like a ghost.
"So this where Sly spent much of his childhood, huh?"
She then saw a little ten-year-old Sly, he was just hanging with his friends, Sly was just sitting on a bed twirling his cane. A girl passed by and something fell out of her pocket. Sly turned his head, and went to go pick it up.
"Excuse me, you dropped something," he said, catching up to the girl. She turned around to see that she was a fox.
"Thank you," she said.
"I'm Sly," Sly said.
"I'm Angelica, nice to meet you."
A few minutes later, Sly returned to his friends.
"Sly, you're a regular lady's man," Bentley said.
The memory ended, and Carmelita found herself back where she was just before she tripped.
"Amazing, I would never of thought that Sly was so cute back then…what the…now I'm calling him cute, oh jeez, I really need a vacation."
She then continued on, looking for another memory.
