Chapter 7: The Meeting
Sly was too scared to go to work the next day. He paced around. He looked at his suits. He tried his new shoes on. After he watched static on his TV for a couple hours, he ate some peanut butter. He finally got the courage to go to work.
He started to walk to work. On the way, Steve drove by and gave Sly some papers.
"Staple these on all of corners and fences." Steve said. They were Wanted posters. With much grief, Sly put them up everywhere. The hardest part came when he was nearly killed trying to put a poster on the stoplight (because "Everyone will see it there!") He nearly fell trying to possum-walk to the light. Why people couldn't see this is unknown.
Then he went to the police station. He sat down in his cubicle.
"Hey, did you hear about the news?" Someone said mockingly.
"What? What news?" Sly asked.
"Oh, you just got a promotion." The familliar voice said again. "Just go to the office."
Sly fainted and bashed his head on his desk.
3 hours later Sly woke up, and forgot where he was.
"Don't you want your "promotion" It's the best thing I've ever heard." With quiet laughing going all around, Sly ran into the office.
"WHAT IS THE PROMOTION? HOW MUCH DO I MAKE? WHAT DO I GET TO DO?" Sly screamed.
"Promotion?" Lieutennant Brown said."There's no promotion. You've been fired."
