Hi! Hyena king here! This is pretty self-explanatory, so I won't bore you with the details. So, without further ado, here's chapter 2!

Here's how it went. Twilight took Bentley back to the van, (Turns out, he's just as good in the van as inside.) And together they monitored what was going on in the museum, often giving fake messages to the guards to reassure that a heist was not currently happening.

Speaking of the guards, they were surprised when a rainbow colored blur suddenly knocked over several exhibits. Rainbow Dash then flew away, the guards chasing after her, yelling and telling her to freeze. Sly, Thunder and Lightning, along with Applejack, quickly made their way through the now deserted hallway. Applejack was taken along because they need her strength to help carry the Clockwerk parts.

Sasha, on the other hand, was being tended to by Rarity and Pinkie. After Sasha had given them something to give Murray, They all decided that Sasha would be better off were she was at. So, Rarity and Pinkie had decided to babysit her, which led to Sasha and Rarity trying out different Egyptian outfits, and Pinkie bouncing around everywhere, Sasha even gave her some Egyptian styled desserts and the recipes for them which made Pinkie very happy. As for Fluttershy...Twilight volunteered her to stay in the van, which the yellow pegasus had more than accepted.

The quartet in question was currently scaling the ropes, three of them using the skills they learned from the Thievius Raccoonus, Applejack with some assistance from Lightning. Soon, they were at the Rendezvous point, which Murray had still not arrived yet. They were considering leaving without him when the hippo came crashing through the glass ceiling.

"Greetings, citizens. I hope you weren't harmed by my meteoropic entrance." He said as he recovered from his landing.

"No, Murray. We kept at a safe distance.' Sly insisted, as Applejack and Thunder were with him. "Though I wouldn't say the same for Lightning."

The white pegasus was currently crushed under Murray's feet. The hippo looked down, and then grabbed Lightning in a bear hug. "I missed you guys! Why didn't you tell me you were here, I would've gotten some pizza!"

Lightning's only response was a choked gurgle.

After an almost tearful reunion,(Tearful on Murray's part) they got back to work. Murray, using Sasha's gift, which were a pair of gloves that were said to increase strength almost a hundred fold, lifted a security gate for the crew. The gloves worked, as Murray had practically lifted the darn thing of it's hinges.

After that, Murray destroyed a block that was blocking the entrance to the Clockwerk exhibits via rope.

"Solid work, Murray. You're in the zone." Sly said when all was said and done.

"My hulking frame is too much for that puny rope." Murray said proudly. 'You guys go ahead and unlock the doors from the inside. I'll be waiting in the hallway to help you carry out the Clockwerk parts."

"If it's all the same to you guys, I think I'll wait with Murray." Applejack said, "I'll leave all that jumpin' and crawlin' to you."

"Alright, be careful." Thunder said.

"Yeah, wouldn't want to lose my best cowpony friend!" Lightning said which for some reason brought a blush from Applejack.

The trio went back in action, crawling across that rope like they owned it. They quickly entered the exhibit, only to find that the Clockwerk parts were missing.

"I don't get it Sly." Bentley commented. "The Clockwerk parts should be right here."

"It's a setup!" Twilight's voice suddenly said.

"Yeah, we need to pull the plug on this operation!" Bentley agreed.

Before the trio could move, the sarcophaguses placed there opened up to reveal...Inspector Carmelita Fox! And a purple tiger person.

"Freeze Cooper! And freak cohorts!" Carmelita said, pulling out her shock pistol.

"Inspector Fox...As beautiful and unpredictable as ever." Sly said with a grin.

"No! Snap out of it!" Thunder said as he stopped Lightning from going to Carmelita.

"Whereas you crooks are so predictable." Carmelita responded with an annoyed look. "You always return to the scene of the crime."

"Crime? I haven't stolen anything...yet." Sarcasm aside, Sly genuinely had no idea what Carmelita was talking about.

"Oh really?" Carmelita asked. "Then who made off last night with the Clockwerk parts? You've got the motive."

'Someone already stole the parts?" Sly was baffled.

"In our defense, we just got back here a few minutes ago." Thunder pointed out. Carmelita ignored him.

"Don't play dumb with me!" Carmelita aimed her gun at them, ready to shoot. The tiger, who had been quite during this exchange, suddenly spoke up.

"It might not have been him, Carmelita. The method of entry and guard casualties point this to being a Klaww Gang job."

"The Klaww Gang?" All three, even Lightning, of the trio said.

Carmelita turned to her partner angrily. "Constable Neyla, I allowed you to sit in on this stakeout as a favor to the Contessa...I really don't need any help!"

"Oh, I think you might. Just look at the facts."

"Facts!? Sly Cooper and his freak show friends are right here! I caught them red-handed!"

"I,m just saying there are other criminals in the world other than-"

"Sly Cooper! After him!"

Sly Cooper, with Thunder dragging along Lightning, ran up the stairs and through the museum, Carmelita tailing behind. Murray and Applejack met up with them.

"Wait up Sly!" Murray cried as he hobbled along.

"What happened to him?" Applejack asked Thunder about Lightning.

"Old flames." Was his response. At that moment, Lightning raised his head and shouted. 'I'll see you later, my darling!" Which caused Applejack to bonk him on the head for some reason.

They continued running, under fire from Carmelita. They met up with Rarity and Pinkie, who ran with them while carrying Sasha. As he chase continued, A bucket of white sticky stuff, (The nature of which I'm letting you guess.) Fell on Carmelita, courtesy of Sasha. They then split up, Murray, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie and Sasha heading back to the van while the trio ran for it. Carmelita chased them onto a balcony, as Police cars were gathering outside the museum.

They ran across the rooftops, Carmelita still on their tail. After a few seconds of this, they reached a back alley where they jumped into the van,(Which still looked like an armored assault vehicle.) And took off, leaving Carmelita in the dust.

"I'll find you, Cooper!" Carmelita cried the fox still as feisty as ever. Before the van pulled fully away, Sasha poked a hand out, waved it, then pulled her hand back in. No sooner had she done this, Carmelita's pants turned to cotton seeds, which blew away with a slight breeze, revealing a blue thong. Carmelita quickly covered herself, her anger vibrating through the night as she heard Sasha, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash's laughter ringing in the process.

There you go. Before you say anything, I rated this T for a reason. Hope you enjoyed this second installment. R&R PLEASE!
