Chapter 3
The cloaked raccoon
Disappearing and reappearing made it harder for Sly to follow him since he did not know the lay out of the town. He followed him to close to the edge of the city. The thief walked into a small square building with his little bit of money he had collected. Sly walked up to it and found a small window and peered in to find a small table, food and some coins laying around.
He notice the thief take off his cloak. He was skinny and had a long fluffy ring-tail. He was wearing a long white skirt that high priest wear with a round gold plate around his neck. He look mildly tried as he sat down, he looked straight at Sly. "You there!" Sly froze up. "Stop staring and get in here to explain yourself!" He yelled with annoyance. Watching Sly as he moved into the building. "What right do you have sneaking around Slytunkhamen Cooper II?" He said in a demanding voice.
"My name is Sly Cooper. I followed you here to see where you lived in case you need any help." Sly replied.
"HELP! Help he says, and saying that he is part of the Cooper family. I only know one Cooper around here and that's my father, Slytunkhamen Cooper the first! No one should ever use that name unless they are a true Cooper of our family, or can prove themselves. Even if you were able to follow me here. Speak lowly trespasser or leave now and forget this place." He sneered.
Sly looked at him and realized that he was quite young maybe around 20 or so. " Ok I am Sly Cooper and I am trapped here even through I am from a different time. I am trying to find my way home but I have no idea how to. I am thief also and I am part of this family. I got to might to meet the pharaoh and he gave me this seal, so I am ok with the priest and the head guards. He sent me to find you but I need to find my way home, and I can help you." He said quickly.
"Right, and I am the high priest. Get out of my sight." He replied, lifting his hand and pointed to the door.
"Please let me stay I can help you!" Sly begged to Slytunkhamen.
"With what?" Slytunkhamen yelled.
"With the cooper vault." He said calmly to him in great satisfaction.
Slytunkhamen rose from his sit and went directly to Sly, griping him and pushing him up on to the wall. "How do you know about that, my dad and I only thought of the idea a week ago. I was sure we were alone. How could someone as worthless as you know about such a thing."
"As I said, I am from the future." Sly said, trying to catch a breath as Slytunkhamen put him down.
Quietly examining Sly closer he did seem to have a weird taste in clothing. "Fine but I must see if you are truly not in the league with the pharaoh, he is crooked and seems to only think of himself. He is worried about me stealing his stuff, that why he hired you. To catch me, so you are going to do it for me. Go to the pharaoh house undetected and draw a lay out of the place, to prove you are worthy of the cooper name." Sly nodded in agreement. "You have until dawn, now be gone, and prove your name."
Sly jumped out of the window and got to higher ground. He thought for a few minutes and realized that he had no idea where the house was. He only been around the market and the temple so now he would have to look around the whole place for one house. Its going to be a long night he thought as he made his way over the stone building back to the temple to start his search.
Nice!
Is breaking in to the Pharaoh house legal?
I guess not!
