Gamelover41592- Glad to know the wait was worth it!
Okay, so this was something I had laid plans out for a while and it involves four OCs I have planned out. Originally, I was planning to introduce them all in one chapter, but I couldn't get events to flow very well, so the plan was changed. Anyways, let's begin.
"Duncan, this may have been the best idea you ever had!" Murray said in between bites of his pizza. As soon as the gang returned to Paris, they had decided to follow up on Duncan's idea for victory pizza. That would have been good enough, but the big shocker came when Carmelita turned up at the restaurant and joined them.
"How did you find us?" Bentley had asked. He was having a salad because he was allergic to tomatoes.
"A little birdie told me," Carmelita explained while looking right at Duncan and Sly.
"What?" Duncan asked, his mouth still full of pizza. He'd already gone through around five slices and was onto his sixth. "Mom helped us beat Clockwerk!"
"So, Duncan and I felt that she deserved to be included in this little victory dinner," Sly explained a bit more in depth as he placed his arm around Carmelita's shoulders. She thought about shoving him off, but instead just snuggled up to him.
"As long as she doesn't try to arrest any of us," Bentley conceded.
"Yeah!" Murray agreed as he reached for another slice of pizza.
"Relax, I found out that if I don't see you commit a crime or on the way to one, I can't actually arrest you. Plus, Duncan is still off limits in my mind," Carmelita explained as she ruffled Duncan's hair.
"When won't I be off limits?" Duncan asked.
"Never, because I refuse to arrest my own son," Carmelita told him, causing the table to burst into laughter as Duncan faked a pout.
"But I won't get to be a thief if you don't try to arrest me!" Duncan pouted.
"Your father's a thief and I've never been able to put cuffs on him," Carmelita pointed out.
"But you handcuffed my heart," Sly flirted. Duncan smiled, Murray started making a kissing face, and Bentley just rolled his eyes.
"At least you can get a little creative, you should hear some of the stuff from the new recruits that come in, 'I bet your tail smells like heaven,' Ugh!" Carmelita ranted.
"That's just creepy," Bentley said before turning to Sly. "I take it back, you don't have the worst pickup lines I have ever heard,"
"Thank you!" Sly said, exasperated. Everyone laughed. Bentley watched as Duncan grabbed his 10th slice of pizza.
"You are so gonna be sick later," Bentley moaned.
"It'll be worth it!" Duncan declared. Whoever created pizza, that person deserved to be a saint.
"So this was over a spider?" Sly scolded a very embarrassed looking Murray. After dinner(Duncan had stopped around 12 slices), everyone began walking towards the van. Carmelita had walked and Sly had made the offer to take her home. She had agreed. Murray had run ahead to start the van but came back screaming about something horrible inside of it. The rest of the gang had come running over only to find an equally startled spider.
"Hey, do spiders normally have metal on them?" Duncan asked as he looked over the spider, which was currently trapped in a jar. This got the adult's attention.
"Me let explain!" The spider said. (Let me explain!) The gang jumped. If they all knew one thing, spiders of that size shouldn't be able to talk.
"See?!" Murray whined. "That is not a normal spider!"
"Clockwerk made I, but was me thrown out because I hate can't!" (Clockwerk made me, but I was thrown out because I can't hate) The spider explained. Despite the jumbled up way of talking, the family could clearly understand what the spider was saying.
"That still doesn't explain how you ended up in the van," Bentley pointed out.
"After Coopers Clockwerk defeated, me hid van in for life new," The spider said. (After Coopers defeated Clockwerk, me hid in van for new life)
"Can I keep it?" Duncan begged, even putting on his best puppy dog eyes. Bentley refused to budge, but unfortunately for him, Sly and Carmelita were wrapped around Duncan's finger.
"Fine," Carmelita said.
"Two rules, one, you look after him and two, if he tries to kill any of us, we squish him no matter what," Sly added in.
"And he stays out of my room!" Bentley said quickly.
"Deal!" Duncan said as he lifted up the jar, causing the spider to activate a little propeller and fly up to Duncan's shoulder.
"Master new!" The spider cheered. (New master!)
"Hey, do you have a name?" Duncan asked the spider.
"SRF-372!" The spider told him.
"How do you even pronounce that?" Duncan asked, trying to think of a better name. The first three letters gave him an idea. "How does Scruffy sound?"
"Like I it!" Scruffy cheered. (I like it!) Duncan laughed as he took his spot in the van. His parents and uncles were still a little unsure about letting one of Clockwerk's creations so close to their son/nephew, but as long as it made Duncan happy(and didn't attempt murder), they would ignore it for now.
Short chapter is short but this didn't really need to be long. I'm just lazy and that's why this took so long. Anyways, next chapter will see the intro of the next few OCs who will be major characters later on. Oh, and if anyone cares, Scruffy looks like Duncan's original Scruffy(the one from the show), just with cyborg parts covering parts of his body.
