Hey everyone,
So, in a weird way, you can consider this one the inspiration source for Parental Intervention. Only instead of parents, it will be someone else who will get Carmelita and Sly together and it will take place at a different time. Instead of this all happening before Sly 3, will this plan take place about a month after Sly 4 ends.
Hope you enjoy,

Plan 04
Jason Fox
Sly's POV
It's been a month since me and my team tried and succeeded in getting into the Cooper Vault, a Vault that has been part of my family's legacy since 1300 Before Christ. Unfortunately did this event have some nasty after-effects.
First of all did my fight with the owner of the island the Vault was build on, a mad scientist named Dr. M who had been friends with my father in his day, cause for the vault to collapse, making me lose everything my family had collected over the generations. Second, did I leave my whole team behind to start living a lie.
Still the lie itself has an up and downside to it. The up side of it is that I now have a chance with the woman of my dreams. The down side is that I have to enter a personal hell – the Interpol Headquarters – and fake to enjoy myself there, while seeing all those mercenaries and other law-enforcers only make me feel like running far, far away.
Still, fearing for my freedom and safety is more than worth it, seeing I can finally have a chance with the woman of my heart and dreams. Said woman and I have just left the Opera House of Paris and pretending as if this place does not remind me of the first time Carmelita and I met was quite difficult, but I pulled it off.
I was also able to send a quick wink at my best friend, Bentley the brains of my team, who had been watching me and Carmelita on the Opera House's balcony from the roof of the building across the street and I really hope he sees this as a sign that I still have my full memory and that he, I and Murray are still a team – and a family.
Then suddenly my musings are interrupted by a male voice with an Italian-Latino accent, who shouts: "There you are!" And to my shock a brown-furred fox with beige fur growing over his face, down his neck and front, which is hidden under an Interpol Uniform walks over, an arm high in the air and a huge smile on his face.
Recognizing the fox for my brother in all but blood, my shock deepens when Carmelita, the girl of my dreams and my partner for the last month, shouts: "Jason!" And while the male fox had been looking at me at first, does he now see my partner – which is quite curious as she was standing in between us – and shout: "Carmelita!"
The fox runs over and hugs my partner, shocking me as he happily asks: "How's my little sister doing?" And instantly I decide that I have to stop letting Carmelita believe that I have amnesia and that I believe myself to be a Constable working for Interpol along with the world famous Inspector Carmelita Montoya Fox as my partner.
My partner then says: "I'm great. It's so brilliant to see you. What are you doing here?" And Jason further strengthens my decision as he says: "I'm here for him of course!" Carmelita looks shocked and Jason laughs as he looks at me and while his words hurt me deeply, does says: "Little Syl! How's my little Coon doing?"
The male fox happily hugs me as he asks this and I suppress the need to firmly hug him back and cry the tears of joy at reuniting with my long lost brother that are threatening to spill. Instead of that do I smile at the male fox while hating myself, do I tell him in a professional voice: "Life's been very good, thank you."
Then Carmelita asks: "Do you know each other?" And Jason answers: "Sure we do. Syl here is the Little Raccoon I told you all about. The one who lived three houses down from where Auntie Adriel and Uncle Albert raised me." My partner looks shocked while I gulp down the pain of reliving that happiness and then sighs as she says:
"Jason, I have some bad news for you. There was a fight between myself Sly and a mad monkey about a month ago and – well – Sly has." But I interrupt her, not wanting to lie to my brother – or wanting to continue a lie to him that his own sister started – and say: "Had." The two foxes look at me shocked and Carmelita asks:
"Had? You had Amnesia? When did you get your memory back?" And while Jason asks: "Memory back?" And while I feel as if my relationship with the woman of my dreams is already ripping at the seams, do I gulp, gather together my Cooper Courage and with a low voice say: "Since you said your full name."
Already I can see the shock of my beloved vixen changing into anger and cringe as she asks: "Since I said my full name? You mean since that fight in the cave? Why did you –?" But then Jason stands between us and with his hands on Carmelita's shoulders does he say: "Carmelita, easy! Don't lose your temper."
He then turns to me and with a harsh voice that shows his disappointment, he says: "Explain." That one word hurts more than any raving I know Carmelita wants to throw at me and I sigh as I say: "When I took the attack Dr. M aimed at Carmelita, back in the Cooper Vault's Inner Sanctum, it made me hit my head.
That did cause Amnesia, but when Carmelita said her full name, my whole memory came back. The myriad of it confused and dazed me, so I asked who I was. When she called me her partner, I remembered wanting to work out our professional differences. The cave was crumbling, so I took the chance and accepted the lie."
Well done, Sly
So yeah, Jason is my inspiration for Parental Intervention and the whole reason I wrote the summary for that story the way I did. I do love stories where you hear about family relations, but stories that have two characters and only hear of the family of one always makes me want to dive into the headcanon of the other.
Did I do well,
