A/N: This is the next chapter. Guru and the rest are in this chapter. This is the story that was supposed to come before Jingle Blues. That's where Carmelita get's the idea to find Sylvia.
Snow had seen the whole thing, from her booth; she didn't want to get to close to them. She had also heard what Sly had said to Carmelita. 'I wish Luke would talk to me like that, I wish Luke was here,' she thought. She got up to throw away her Cappuccino and saw Sly stand up with Carmelita right beside him. Snow took out her phone and quickly dialed Bentley's number.
"C'mon, c'mon, pick up your phone," she said, "YES!" she had heard the line click, someone had picked up. "Itehthie?" "Guru! I'm bloody glad I got you! Put Bentley on the line," Snow said hastily. "Mocomo chimao ko?" "No I don't want you to bloody up Bentley! It's just a British expression. Put Bentley on the line, PLEASE!"

"Guru, who's on the phone?" Penelope asked. "Mocomo, iota, ko," Guru said. "You mean someone who wants to kill Bentley is on the phone? Guru may I have the phone," Guru gave Penelope the phone and went to find Murray and the Panda King. "'Ello?" the voice at the end of the line asked, "Is anyone there, It's Snow! Penelope? Murray? GURU! I WILL KILL THAT FUZZY LITTLE BEAR, RAT THING!"
"Snow? Oh it's only you! Guru said that it was someone trying to kill Bentley!" said Penelope, "What do you need?" "I need to tell you that Sly and Carmelita are…" Snow stopped.
Just then Bentley rolled in. "Penelope is that Sly? He's turned his binocucom off and I can't reach him." "I'm sorry Bentley but its Snow," Penelope said. Bentley paused and rubbed his chin, "Well, I need to ask Snow some things," Penelope handed the phone to the turtle, "Ahh, Snow how is the mission going?"

She didn't know what to tell the little turtle, so she lied, "Uhh, good for the most part, but Sly's being a big git," She hated lying to the turtle. She felt bad for him, 'Time to tell the truth,' she thought. "That's not the truth Bentley; well the part about Sly being a git is true…" She was cut off. "Snow I know you have a British accent and all but can you speak English and not British!" he yelled.
"Ok Bentley, I'll try speaking without my accent. Ok eh, I really don't know were to start," she said. "The beginning would be a good place to try," said Bentley, he was irritated, better not try and cross him either. "Ok then the beginning it is. Well when I made my way to the Coffee Shoppe in East London it had begun to rain. I stopped at the window at the Shoppe and saw Sly get up. I though he was just going to get a drink or something. But he went over to Miss Fox's table. I knew what he was doing, but I wasn't sure if he knew what HE was doing. He said some nice things to her. They left the Coffee Shoppe after that. I don't know were he is," Snow was getting ready for one of the biggest blow ups from Bentley of all time. She got her wish. "HOW COULD YOU LET HIM LEAVE WITH HER! HE COULD BE IN JAIL OR DEAD! SNOW! FIND HIM NOW!" The line went dead. 'Great now I have to play Sly's keeper,' she thought.

"And over there, is Big Ben," she said. Sly was amazed. He had never seen the sights in the day, "It looks so much better in the light," he said, "I bet you knew that I've never seen anything but the inside of my hideout during the day."
"I knew that," Carmelita looked at the little bistro over on the corner, "Hey Sly?" "Yeah…" "Never mind," she said. Just then it began pour down rain. "C'mon," Sly shouted, "Let's get out of the rain!" He grabbed her hand and made a motion towards the bistro. "Are you afraid of a little water, Sly," Carmelita asked. "Yes, deathly actually," said Sly.
"Rain is nothing to be afraid of. I think of rain quite calming really," Carmelita said. She looked at the sky and then back at Sly, "What was your Childhood like? I know it's completely of topic but I just want to know what it was like."
"I lived with my parents and my sister until Clockwerk and his goons came on my eight birthday and killed my parents. No he didn't kill them he had his goons slaughter them while my three year old sister and I watched from a closet. Then he tore apart the Thievius Raccoonus and gave it to his goons. Then the police took Sylvia away from me and I never saw her again. I landed in Happy Campers Orphanage, it wasn't all bad, and I met Bentley and Murray there. It was more like they met me. We had our own little gang. We had fun. But then when I was eighteen they told Murray and I to leave. Bentley had left two years before that. So we had to find Bentley, after Murray and I found him I had to go get the pages to the Thievius Raccoonus. That's when I met you," Sly stopped, "Yeah that's basically it."
"You've had a hard life and I haven't made it any better," Carmelita was shocked, she knew the story about Sly Cooper form reading his file at Interpol, but she had never heard it like that. "It's not your fault Carmelita. If it's anyone's it's Clockwerk's."

"Oh that big arse, Sly your sooooo in for it when I get my hands on your scrawny raccoon neck! He won't know what hit him. The little…" Snow's ear's twitched, "LUKE!" She turned around and jumped on him. "I'm glad to see you too Snow Bunny!" See Luke was a chief at Interpol and he had been trying to bust the local KLAWW gang. He had been gone for so many months Snow had given up on him. "Luke, I'm on a mission," Snow declared. "Eh, that's great! Who you working for?" Luke asked. Luke never liked his wife working in shady alleys and backstreet thieves.
"Oh, you'd like him. His name is Bentley, he's a turtle and he's smarter than Chief Rob!" She said while running down Buckingham Palace Street. Luke tried to keep up. 'Damn that woman can run fast,' he thought. Finally he had caught up with Snow but she only stopped to see two people. "Snow, What cha' looking at," Luke said while looking at the couple parked at one of the outside tables at the nearest restaurant, which happened to be a great Italian restaurant. "I'm looking at Sly Cooper and Carmelita Montoya Fox, ex -Inspector of your department. What did you do?" she looked at him while putting down the binoculars. "Me! I should be asking you what you've done. You now run with thieves. I know about your family's thieving line and all but why do you have to be one?"
"It's just something I'm good at, and I'm not really a thief, I'm an agent," Snow sighed, "I could never be a thief. I was a police officer." Luke lifted her chin to have her looking in to his eyes "Just remember I love you no matter what you do," Luke said.

A/N: Another chapter down. I know Guru and Penelope were in it. But not Murray, Panda King, and Dimiti. Actually I don't know why I didn't put Dimiti in this. He's my favorite to write for! Luke and I closed up this time -squeals- Thank you for all the kind reviews! –Waves-
Until next time,
Snow
