Benefit of the Doubt

Juan went to town on Sly's stuff, searching for anything that could be used against him. He dug through his bags, but to no avail. But then he pulled out a laptop.

"JUAN!" Maria yelled, seeing her husband rummaging through Sly's stuff. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!"

"Maria, he's a thieving 'coon!" Juan said. "I'll prove it to you. He has an active account on Thief Net, THIEF NET WOMAN!"

Maria pulled out a piece of paper and looked at it. "Oh yeah look at this!"

Juan looked at it. It said:

Captain Cooper, you have been assigned to monitor activity on Thief Net with the intentions of determining which criminals for Interpol to be using its resources on as well as determining the current and future whereabouts of these criminals including the remaining members of the Cooper Gang (No relation to you keep in mind). You are to assume the identity of a criminal by means of an active account on Thief Net.

"Son of a bitch!" Juan said. "Damn! I thought I had him. Fine Maria, I'll give him the benefit of a doubt, but mark my words, I'll be watching him."

"Man, that is FINE on you girl!" Eliza said, as Carmelita came out of her dressing room. "You sure you can afford that? Cause the tag says six hundred euros!"

"Oh, I know I can pay for this," Carmelita said, going back into the dressing room. She then came back out in her normal cloths. "And I definitely know that Sly's gonna like this!" She said as she paid for it.

"Yo bro, long time no seeing," Dimitri said as he greeted Sly in his office. "Like the bling, looks like an engage…wait! You sly Cooper you! Who you shinin'?"

"Just someone you'll know, just that you didn't get on the right path with her," Sly said. "A certain Carmelita Fox!"

"WHAT?" Dimitri yelped, falling backwards in his chair. "You hitchin' up to that loco babe who bust'in me twice? Ruined me? Well good for, our pals are here too at the moment."

Dimitri motioned Sly to follow him to the concert hall. The nightclub was pretty much like the one in Paris, except this time it wasn't there for the purpose of getting the city to induce large amounts of illegal spice. The place had café type area with bars, a disco area, which made up most of the building, a stage for short plays, and a concert hall for bands. Sly was led into the concert hall, where up on stage was the rest of the gang.

"I thought I said that there's no heist," Sly said, getting up on stage.

"Relax Sly," said someone new. "We're here to help grease the wheels with your future father-in-law"

"Tanner, good to see you," Sly said.

Tanner was an inside man for the Cooper gang. He was kept secret from even Sly himself. Tanner proved to be a valuable asset in the past by helping Sly take down the Krakow Brothers and a rogue Interpol officer named McBride.

"They here to make you greasy sweet to your soon be father," Dimitri said.

"Do you still play?" Tanner said, tossing a guitar to Sly.

"You bet I do," Sly said.

An hour later, everyone squeezed back into the Lotus.

"Your not driving again is you?" Julio wined in a shocked expression.

"I sure am boy!" Sly said in a southern accent; a smile on his face.
