Things where looking pretty grim for poor Sly ,because now he had no family ,no home ,and now after Carmelita moved away to Paris thanks to her father, Sly now has lost the only girl he loved to play with.

"Don't be sad little guy" Alan said trying to cheer the little racoon up ,"things aren't all bad ,when we get to the orphanage I promise your life will change for the better just you wait."

However though Sly did not believe it would get better even if Alan says it would ,because his parents are gone of course, but this did not stop Alan from trying to cheer up poor little Sly.

And about another hour later, they finally came to the orphanage, Alan then said to him "here it is my dear boy your new home ,and again I promise you will thank me for doing this for you."

Then they both came to the front of the door ,and Alan then knocks on the door waiting for someone to arrive and answer it ,and who would do so other than a sweet woman ,who was an old owl with white hair tied in a bun, and when she noticed Alan at the door, she says to him in a gentle voice "why hello Mrs. Henrietta Puffins at your service my good man."

"Hmm hmm why hello Mrs. Puffin, I was wondering if you can do me a little favor?"Alan asks the very sweet owl ,as she replies kindly "anything kind person and I'll do it from the kindness of my heart."

Alan after hearing this says to her "you see this little raccoon was separated from his family, by a group of criminals after their home got ransacked " ,then Mrs. Puffins fills in the rest saying "and you saw this poor young man alone ,and brought him here ,where my loving home is a shelter where all lost little children are cared for here" ,to this Alan then replies "exactly."

"Well don't you worry Sly here is in good hands" Mrs. Puffin stated to Alan, as she took Sly under her wing ,and escorted the young racoon inside, and the only thing for Sly to do now, was to wave back to Alan goodbye before the kind owl closed the doors.

And as they began to walk through the main halls ,Mrs. Puffin then escorts young Sly to the cafeteria to get acquainted with the other children while she makes supper ,but when Sly enters the cafeteria however ,he was surprised to see how many children there where ,and since he didn't know any of them Sly began to be so nervous ,that he didn't know what else to do but stand in front of the doors.

That is until a voice from one of the tables shouted to him "hey stripes with the stick!",when Sly turned to see what it was ,it turned out to be an elephant like kid with an orange t-shirt and a crown like hat ,who said to him "are you gonna stand there all day like a coat rack ,or are you gonna sit somewhere?"

Sly with no other choice decides to go sit at a vacant table where only just a few people were seated ,and seated himself at the far side of the table where no one was presently sitting ,or so he thought when he sat down.

Just when it felt like Sly was gonna live here the rest of his life alone with people he didn't know another orphan who came out of the doors Sly had just came out of was a little turtle in his pajamas and glasses that have been drawn on in permanent marker and just when he came in a sea of laughter towards him approached.

"Looks like 4 eyes Bentley formed into 6 eyes" the elephant kid from before said ,making fun of what he drew on Bentley's glasses, which happened to be an extra pair of eyes, one for each eye, as Bentley replied to the jerk saying "very funny Derek, it'll take me weeks to clean this off my glasses."

Derek the elephant kid then answers back to the little turtle, saying "here let me help you there eggshell head!" ,before he blasted him with water from his trunk, drowning the poor turtle ,seeing this Derek then asks "whats wrong I thought all turtles love water, man what a dork afraid of water some turtle," as he is joined by the other orphans at laughing at him afterwards .

After seeing the turtle suffer ,a large hippo like orphan child who was sitting across from Derek ,said to him "come on Derek lay off him ,he's only a kid come on lets-" however before he could finish talking, Derek interrupts him saying "why do you always have to butt in Murray, don't tell me you've gone soft on me because of him?"

This made the Hippo mad when he heard him say such a thing ,reply back "you better take that back about me hose nose ,because I can break you in two" not caring for what he said however, he replies "yeah you try to do that ,while I give 6 eyes spit ball eyes to go with the other six he has."

But right when Derek was about to shoot the first one from his trunk, Murray gets in front of him and grabs him by the trunk, also causing him to swallow the spit ball through the trunk, this made Murray tell it to him again, hoping he will listen saying" I said lay off the turtle or else!"

"Or else what pink gut?" Derek interrupts again, and after asking this, a voice from behind the two answers Derek saying "or you'll have to deal with me!", and when they turned around to see who said it ,which turned out to be little Sly who came to Bentleys rescue, after seeing what Derek put him and Murray through ,he couldn't stand to watch someone do such a thing to people like him.

Derek who was angered by this said "oh look now you speak, well that doesn't change anything for me, whats a small guy like you going to do with big bad me?" ,that's when Sly answers him saying "this!", then uses his cane to grab the tip of his trunk ,spin him around, and then drop him onto the ground so hard that Derek began to see stars.

After he took care of Derek, Sly then approaches the wet Bentley ,and says to him "are you OK kid, here let me help you ,Bentley was it?" as he cleans him up with a napkin, Bentley then replies to him "yes thank you that was nice of you, you don't know how long it's been since someone stood up that pachyderm jerk", as Sly cleans off the water from him.

"Think nothing of it, I'm sure you would do the same for me" Sly said ,before turning to Murray to say "oh by the way you where great too", only for Murray to answer him saying "thanks my names Murray ,nice to meet you ,you must be the new guy I've heard about Slyvester Cooper", Sly then replies to him "people call me Sly ,hi Murray ,hi Bentley it was nice meeting you two now I've got to go back to my seat bye."

However before Sly could go back to the table he was sitting at before, Murray stops him in his tracks by asking "can we join you?" hearing this Sly asks "you want to s-s-sit with me?" after turning around nervously toward him.

"Sure we do, I mean if you don't mind that is?"Bentley answers for Murray, and to this Sly replies in a sheepish voice "well uh heh ok, sure I mean there's plenty of room for 3" making the other 2 sit in chairs that werent taken, while Sly sits back into his original seat,and soon the three where beginning to know something about one another until lunch was ready.

And that's when the three began to become a crew, and gotten to know each other allot better ,after a few years Sly and his gang grew and grew ,until they where full-grown men ,and during those years they began a thieving business,and after their cookie jar heist they decided what their first heist will be and that is revealed in the first Sly game.

Sorry if this was a bit rushed I couldn't think up a better ending but I promise the last chapter will be better than this and in the meantime please review but please no bad comments
