"Idiots." Carmelita thought as she walked through the corridors of the police office."They didn't think I could get done selling nasty cookies and all that other stuff, but I did.And now those thieves will be locked up forever!" She was softly laughing by now, overjoyed her plan worked.She walked to the cell Sly Cooper was in. He was still knocked out by the shock from her pistol, with a little help from some traquilizer darts.He was starting to slowly wake up.
"Uhhhhhh...where am I?" he asked, groggily."Carmelita? What is this place?"
"You're in jail, ringtail."Carmelita said, confidently.
"Nice rhyme." Sly replied smugly."Wait, I shouldn't be here, you should! After all, you destoyed the orphanage."
"Not any more, Sly." Carmelita began." After I sold those...'treats',I got some skilled builders to rebuild your little orphanage. Amazing workers, the Amish. Now You'll be here for a LONG time." She walked away.
"Well I'm not planning on staying here for a 'LONG' time,I gotta think of a way out of this place." Sly thought."But how?" Sly looked around the cell. There was a cheap bed on one side, a window in the back, and a toilet on the other side. Sly looked out the window. He could see the ground. His window was only about 8 feet off the ground.The windows were barred so Sly couldn't escape through there. He looked under the bed. Sure enough there was a gaping hole.
"Wow," Sly thought."What a cheap prison." He went into the hole. He emerged at the other end.He was in the gas station.
"Whoa," the cashier said."Where'd you come from?"
"From that hole over there."Sly responded.
"Oh...good luck with that."the cashier said."Why does everyone have to copy me?"
Sly dashed outside."Now I gotta find Bentley and Murray." he thought as he crossed the street.Suddenly a blue van hit him.Two figures walked out.
"Great job Bentley!" Murray yelled."That's two people you hit this month. TWO! TWO! STRIKE TWO!"
"Wait, it's Sly!" Bentley replied.
"That's even worse." Murray said."That's like, strike three."
Sly got up slowly, clutching his gut.
"Oh there you are." he said.
"Sly I-I'm sorry. I-I didn't know it was you." Bentley said quietly.
"It's okay. I feel fine. My back kind of hurts a little but-" Sly said as Murray grabbed him and cracked his back.
"Thanks Murray. Let's go." Sly said as he began to walk around the back of the van. Suddenly it slammed into him and he fell over. Murray ran around to the back of the van.
"STRIKE THREE! THREE! THAT'S THREE IN A ROW BENTLEY!" Murray screamed as Sly slipped into unconsciousness yet again.
Sly started to wake up again.He looked around.He was back at the hideout.
"Murray! Murray!" Bentley screamed."SLY"S AWAKE AGAIN!
Sly stood up."Nice driving Bentley." he said.
"Shut up!" Bentley yelled as he walked up to Sly. "Well, we didn't get our orphanage saved, but at least we got a new one built."
"And we got Carmelita to have a bake sale." Sly added.
"Hey, guys, let's remember one more thing for old time's sake. How about the time we went to the lake?" Murray suggested.
It was the time he,Bentley and Murray went to Lake Funtime for "fun".
"Sly." Betnley whispered as the children sat down in the auditorium."I forgot my water-wings. I can't swim without them.What am I going to do?"
"No sweat,Bentley." Sly said."I can't swim either.Besides,no one is forcing you to swim."
Ms. Puffin walked on the stage in front of the children.
"I AM FORCING ALL OF YOU TO SWIM AT LAKE FUNTIME."she growled at the children."If you DON'T,I will transfer you to the streets." She was serious.
"Thanks a lot,Sly." Bentley said,sweating heavily yet again.
"I-I-how-and-h-how-w-was-it-and, but, how could, sorry." Sly said,nervously.
All the kids ran to the boat waiting on the river near the orphanage. It was one of those old steamboats.
"Now, if you kids somehow fall off the boat and can't swim, we won't come back for you." Ms. Puffin said. Once again, she was serious.
The boat started to move towards the lake. It would take about and hour to get there.
"I'm bored." Murray complained.
"Murray we've only been moving for a minute." Bentley corrected.
"GAH! I wanna get off! Murray yelled.
"Uh-huh-huh. You guys are stupid." Bernard said laughing as usual.
"Yeah, heh-heh-heh, you guys are,like,uh...stupid.Heh-heh-heh.Yeah cool." Frankie snickered from behind.
"I thought you two morons were expelled for calling Mrs. Rye stupid." Sly said.
"Sly, you can't get expelled from an orphanage." Bentley added.
"Yeah, butt-muncher. What the bed-wetting turtle said." Frankie replied.
"STOP BRINGING THAT UP!" Bentley cried.
"Uhhhh...hey bed wetter, stop bed-wetting the bed like Frankie.Huh-huh-huh-huh."Bernard said. "Maybe Pokey has something to say." Bernard said as he and Frankie started to poke Murray.
"Stop it!" Murray yelled. "I'm getting really angry!
"I'm, like, angry at you." Bernard said.
"Yeah..like the time me and Bernard were watching TV and you know... " Frankie mumbled.
The boat started to pass a construction site.Murray started to get angry.
"Check it out Frankie."Bernard said."Pokey's getting, uh, mad."
"Heh-heh.You know I like it when they get mad." Frankie snickered.
"Dangit Frankie! What the heck are you talking about? Who the heck is "they?" And who cares? Just shut up!" Bernard yelled.
Murray picked up both Frankie and Bernard at the same time.
"Uhhhh, down Pokey! Uh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh" Benard laughed as he threw them to the construction yard across the river.
Sly could hear one of the construction workers say:"You boys want a job?"
"Well, we don't have to deal with those idiots anymore." Sly said as the boat docked at a port. The kids ran out as Ms. Puffin waited for them.
"Like I SAID before...WE WILL LEAVE YOU BEHIND IF YOU DON'T MAKE IT BACK IN TIME!" she screeched as the kids ran away. Sly, Bentley, and Murray looked for something to do.
"Hey guys," Joshy said as he aproached them. "I brought my fishing pole. Wanna help me fish?"
"No thanks, Joshy, you have fun with, with that." Bentley said.
"Fine, its your loss." he replied as he walked onto the flimsy dock. When he got to the edge, the dock collapsed and Joshy fell into the lake.
"Well, what should we do?" Sly asked to his friends.
"Well, we could go on a hike with the rest of the group."
"No, no. With Ms. Puffin as the group leader, just no." Murray said.
"Hey, look! A boat! We could ride it across the lake!" Sly said as he found a boat.
"How are we going to steer a boat, let alone get it to start?" Bentley said.
"It will be pretty easy if the keys are still in the ignition, which they are." Murray responded.
They all got into the boat. Sly turned the keys and slammed his foot down.Instantly the boat started to move.
"We're moving!" Bentley yelled. The boat went about five feet and sunk. The current carried the three to the shore where Ms. Puffin was waiting for them.
"Did you three just sink MY SUMMER BOAT?" she asked and shrieked at the same time.
"Well," Sly started." You see Ms. Puffin, 'sink' is a little too harsh to-"
"Yep, we sunk your boat." Murray inturpted.
"In that case, I have a little assignment for the three of you..." Ms. Puffin said as she led them off to the other side of the lake.
"See all this garbage?" she said, while pointing to a garbage-filled beach.
"Yeah, that's a lot of trash." Murray said.
"Enjoy picking it up while the other children and myself go on a glass-bottom boat." she said as she walked away.
"Thanks a lot Murray." Bentley muttered.
"You're welcome." he said, not noticing Bentley was angry.
After hours of picking up candy wrappers, cans, and other random garbage, Sly,Bentley and Murray finally finished cleaning up the beach except for a piece of driftwood.The glass-bottom boat was nearing the beach they were at.
"Before we got to the jelly-fish section," Ms. Puffin began on a megaphone."You'll notice to your left, next to the racoon and the turtle, is a beached whale."
"Where?" Murray asked." I don't see no beached whale."
"You mean 'I don't see any beached whales around." Bentley corrected.
"Besides, she was talking about you, big guy." Sly informed Murray.
"GGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR! I GOT ANGRY ONCE ALREADY TODAY!" Murray screamed. He picked up a large log.
"DON'T MESS WITH MURRAY!" Murray yelled as he threw the log at the boat. It went right through the glass.Sly and Murray roared with laughter as the jellyfish in the lake stung Ms. Puffin and the other students.Bentley on the other hand was stricken with fear.
"Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray,Murray," Bentley whispered.
"Check it out Murray. You really scared Bentley." Sly noticed.
"WOW! AWESOME!" Murray yelled.
"Ha! You didn't get out of that trance for two days." Sly said.
"That was not funny Sly!" Bentley said.
"Yeah it was." Murray added.
"Well the Happy got torn down, but we got a new orphanage." Sly said, changing the subject.
"Happy?" Murray asked.
"Now I can tell you about our new mission." Bentley began."But we're going to need our OTHER gang members..."
"Other?"
"Murrray, just shut up." Sly said.
