Time to continue. Should I make a Spotify playlist for each chapter? Pls let me know.

Too Far.

As Sly made his way through ever treacherous criminal syndicate territory. The ever so, nostalgic park from the night prior was a bustle with other students. All with a nervous bustle about them. Glancing over his shoulder Sly saw a tag where, The Cooper Gang, should be only to see it crossed out in red paint with, The Klaww Gang, Tagged under it. Disheartened, Sly, continued his cautious stroll through the park. Finally reaching the end of the high danger zone, Sly was made aware of the sound of shots coming from the direction of his home. Disregarding the noise as just some random drive-by Sly returned to his confident pace, still erratic from the beautiful Miss Fox's agreement to hang out the next day. The thought of her just made his heart beat go out of whack. He'd start to blush and the smile that he got would look stupid if you were to ask him. Slys giddiness was replaced by the sound of police cars and ambulances parked outside of his house.

"Sorry kid but you've got the worst luck for parents." Police constable Barkley said, patting Sly on the back. "It was a drive-by done by what witnesses described as the spice cartel specifics. Unclear motive. And poor Linda and John here, were executed after receiving the initial shot wounds. Witnesses say it was a tiger. That's all I can say about that. Sorry."
"I didn't ask but, thank you anyway." Sly replied knowing exactly who it was. Even though Linda and John had adopted him for the money bonus, they were good to Sly.
"Everything goes to you." Barkley told him. "The property, the rundown Ute in the shed, their cash in the bank. All their possessions."
Sly although adopted was the only child. Which meant that they had someone to pass it all onto.

"I want them cremated and their blood relatives notified as soon as possible." Sly said, straight to the point. Sly went into the house. His room, always messy but still tidy to him was riddled with holes. Rajan was serious about killing him. Packing all his possessions and his Fathers cane in a bag. With a change of clothes, Sly said goodbye to his old, new, home. Thankful of John and Linda's sacrifice but also generosity. Skateboard underfoot, Sly set off back to Carmelitas house.

As Sly, the most charming boy she had ever met and had just been too blind to see. Walked off to his hideaway, Carmelita checked her letter box before walking up her driveway. Her whole family was home. Her brothers and his friend's scooters were sprawled all over her driveway. But they were out without them for some reason and luckily were still on holiday. She heard her dad from across the house start a ridiculous argument with her mother about her for some reason. Slipping away to her room unnoticed, Carmelitas mood dropped to the point where she'd just had enough. Back to how it was for the past 5 months. Tears streaming down her face with, Mayday Parade's Miserable At Best, playing on her phone. Unfeeling she pulled up her sleeve, unattached the razor blade from her pencil sharpener and paused. What would sly say if he saw the cuts? Should she do it? Nobody cared if she had before but, he seems to. Unsure, her thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the window. Looking over her shoulder to have her heart skip a beat for what felt like two whole minutes.

Sly snuck up the drive way. Leaving his skateboard with the scooters. Climbing the fence, avoiding the very audible argument between two foxes about Carmelita. So, he decided to slip around the back. Checking the windows, window one… nope. Window two? Bingo.
Sly knocked. Carmelita turned around and stared in disbelief. Coming up to the window and unlocking it for him.
"Hey, sorry I came over." Sly said as he was climbing through the window. "I just didn't know where else to go and… WHAT THE FUCK?" Sly noticed the sleeve rolled up, the razor on the floor and the tears on her face. "What were you about to do Carmelita?" Sly said, concerned.
"What do you think?" She replied. "It's not like anyone cares about me."
"Why the hell do you think I'm reacting the way I am?" Sly said, wanting to comfort her. "My Dad hates me."
"My parents are dead and when I got home, I discovered that there was a poor assassination attempt on my life by a certain tiger that we both know. And now I have no family to call my own." Sly said calmly.
"What?"
"Rajan did a drive-by on my house."
"No way…"
"Yeah just ask the Cops."
"That's crazy, are you okay?"
"I'm pissed off that the dad of my girlfriend hates her and makes her want to cut herself."
"I'm not your girlfriend."
"Oh… Sorry… Slip of the tongue."
"Was it?"
"Yeah, anyway… do you want to get out of here?"
"Well I'd be in trouble with my parents, Moms really nice and I don't want to leave her with him in there."
"Oh, that's understandable."
"Yeah… I'll be out in about 30 minutes."
"Oh okay."
"Actually, go back out and I'll introduce you."

"Oh… Okay then."

Sly clambered out the window, and scurried over the fence again. The yelling stopped and then the gate opened revealing an angry faced fox.
"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?!" He yelled into Slys face. The pungent scent of beer mixed with Midori wafted out of the drunkard's mouth.
"I'm Sly, Sly Cooper." Sly replied, trying not to anger Carmelitas father any further.
"Cooper? Like the thieving rat cooper gang?"
Sly clenched his fists, straightened his back.
"Look you Beer gutted cunt, I will throw you down your hallway if you ever speak to me like that again."
"Ha, I'd like to see you try you fucking rat."
Carmelitas father straightened himself up, standing above Sly. Attempting to intimidate him with his sheer mass. Sly wasn't frightened in the least, sparring with Murray was much more intimidating. The towering Fox smirked.
"So? You going to"-
*CRACK*
Sly had broken his jaw with a swift right jab.
*CRACK* *CRACK* *CRUNCH*
Sly broke his shoulder plate and collar bone with a hold. And shattered his ribcage with a shin kick.
Collapsed in a heap of pain Carmelitas father was left moaning.
"Oh, I see you met my dad." Carmelita said. "What did you do?"

"Oh, I squared up to him, like he was asking me to."
"Wow… Alright then."
