The raccoon, still denying his pain, stormed out his office. It was probably due to his angry mood that he didn't see the person walking past him.
"Oomph!" Both grunted out as they collided. Sly felt a rain of papers and metal objects fall over him.
"Oh I'm so sorry." Sly said, grabbing the papers and did his best to ignore the damn urge to take the metal things. All because of his damn past.
He knew his birth family's past, but he was not a thief. He was a police officer.
He was not a Cooper. He was a Fox.
Shaking the thoughts him his head, he managed to grab the rest of the papers, some of which were still falling down. "Here I think I got them all." He turned his head to the person who was padding the floor. "Thanks, but I need my glasses-"
"These glasses?" Sly saw the shiny object out of the corner of his eye and plucked the glasses up.
"Oh, thank you." Short person quickly placed them on and then blinked at the raccoon. "While I doubt we have meet before, you do seem familiar." He frowned, and snapped his fingers. "Inspector Sylvester-"
"Yup" Sly answered with a grin.
"Cooper." The turtle finished his sentence and then noticed the hurt look. "Oh crap, I'm sorry sir. I didn't know-"
"It's alright." Sly lied, winching as being called Cooper did hurt. It was not who he was, and he hated when people believed he was faking his whole life in order to get back at the Fiendish Five and steal their loot. If he was ever going to get his revenge, he was going to do by the book.
And get his family book back. That was the only other thing he would keep from the Cooper family.
"I'm really sorry about sir. I didn't see you, I mean, I wasn't-"
"Please stop." Sly raised his paw, stopping the turtle. "It was my fault." He stood up and helped the turtle as well. Grabbing the metal pieces, he passed it to the turtle. "Well, I hope you have a good day Mr. Turtle." He turned and walked out of the corridor.
"Thank you Mr. Fox." The turtle followed him, struggling to keep pace. "And thanks for helping with papers and my other stuff."
"Not a problem, and please call me by name. Mr. Fox is my dad." Sly laughed, something he rarely did on his birthday. He followed the turtle, obviously a shy person, and Sly saw he was making the turtle's day.
"Alright Sylvester." The turtle turned around another corridor and into the high tech part of the station. "Well, I need to get back to work as well."
"Actually, I've been told to take off the day off." Sly rubbed his neck, and sighed.
The turtle pondered that, and he quickly came to the answer. "I'm sorry." He said, rubbing his neck as well. "Well, I do hope you have an easy day Sylvester."
"Thank you Mr. Turtle." Sly was glad he had ran into this kind person. "And please call me Sly, everyone does it.
"Ok Sy-Sly." The turtle blushed, and then called back before he entered his room. "And mine is Bentley."
Well, if anyone that Turtle was Bentley, you were right! And soon we shall start the adventure at the same fanfic website, same fanfic story.
