Thief Training on the First Heist
After having breakfast with the gang back at the hideout, Sly decided to take the girls on a little clothes shopping an as they are walking together through the street heading to the clothing store to buy some new style for them while Sly is wearing a red coat with a matching hat and dark blue pants.
"Alright girls consider this your first test of being a thief. Make sure you're prepare to take what you can get, and no one spots you." Sly said under the brown mustache.
"Okay, I just have one question: why are you covering yourself like that, are you shy?" Scorpia asked.
"Not shy, really. Let just say I'm very well-known of what I'm good at." Sly grinned.
Catra saw a part of a newspaper a man is reading seeing a picture of Sly on it with the article saying, "Sly Cooper still on the lose!" and watch a few television screens in a store's window showing imagines of Sly stealing things from places he has been to.
"Yeah, I'm starting to see that." Catra said.
Soon, they search the clothing store stopping at the front door.
"Okay, you all remember what to do?" Sly asked.
"You will go in and distract the manager with some fabric questions while we take a quick look around to find any clothing we may like. Our time limit is ten minutes and we must leave with the clothing items we have pick out not a second more, and make sure no one see us taking them." Entrapta explained the plan they went over earlier.
"Good, now get in there and steal." Sly said as he goes in first the girls come in a little after.
Sly walks to the counter to speak to the manager, leading him away from the register. Sly carefully turn his head toward Catra giving her a wink before turning back to the store manager as he starts to go on about how Italy make their own clothing style.
"Oh, this looks nice, and so does this one. Oh, so many to chose from." Scorpia looked around trying to pick which clothes to get though she is having a hard time to decide.
"Hmm, what would look good on a girl of science?" Entrapta asked herself, looking at the t-shirts and little pants.
Catra is looking at the cool-looking shirts and trying to see if there is one that would suit her the most until her eyes caught on one dark red shirt that looks like an alien cat with red transparent spiked up mane and red eyes with an angry growl look.
"Bingo." Catra smiled.
Walking up to the shirt and was about to grab the shirt when another hand reaches out to get the shirt touch her hand.
"Oh, sorry, did you want the shirt?" The girl asked.
The girl looks about the same age as Catra, being anthro fox with blonde fur and her hair tied into a high ponytail, bluebell eyes, and narrow brown eyebrows. She wears a white shirt with a golden bird-like, brown-green pants, and red shoes. She appears to be missing a tooth in the middle.
"Maybe, I never really been on clothes shopping much." Catra said, nervous of talking to another kid around her age.
"Oh, well, I think this shirt looks great on you. Here." The girl handed Catra the alien cat shirt.
"Really, but didn't you want this?" Catra asked.
"It's fine, I don't think it would good on me anyway. I think I like this one." The girl picked out another t-shirt with a unicorn that has rainbow color wings.
"Cool, I guess we both got what we want. I'm Catra." Catra introduced herself.
"Hi, I'm Adora Fox." Adora greeted.
"Pssh! Catra." Entrapta whispered getting the cat girl's attention and tap her wrist telling her that their time is almost up.
"Oh, huh, hey, I have to get going really soon, so how about you… go try on that shirt in the changing room." Catra suggested, quick thinking of a way to get her newest friend distracted for a bit.
"Okay, I hope my auntie will get me this shirt." Adora walked into the changing room.
Catra took the opportunity the quickly sneak her way to back her friends and Sly, carefully removing the price tag off, grabbing a pair of shorts too, and hiding behind some of the clothing as she reaches to the exit and ran out the door heading to the alleyway where they said to meet up.
"Hmm, no alarm going off, nobody spotted you leaving with the clothes, and manage to think of way to get away from someone who saw you. Good work." Sly smiled, giving the girls a thumb up.
"Wow, I was really nervous when that lady talked to me, I didn't know what to say and I just told her that if this place got a bathroom. Glad I got away when I got the chance." Scorpia said, feeling a little scared.
"I had no trouble hiding the clothes I picked out in my hair." Entrapta showed the clothes she got.
"It was a little easy for me, I think I also made a new friend." Catra smiled a little.
"Great, I also got some clothes for you as well, now let's head back to the hideout." Sly said and they walk away heading back to the train cart hideout.
(Nighttime)
The Cooper Gang and three little girls are in the Cooper Van driving into a parking lot as Bentley is going over some things on his computer.
"So, are you finally going to tell us what we're going to do?" Catra asked, wearing a dark red shirt and shorts.
"We're here because I need to get a casefile from the police station." Sly revealed.
"The police station, I though you guys only steal from criminals?" Scorpia confused, wearing a black shirt with a scorpion picture on it and blue pants.
"Plus, that place security system isn't much." Entrapta pointed out, wearing a white-purple shirt with a breaker filled with green chemicals and green bubbles coming out, violet pants too.
"Normally, we avoid the police as much as possible, but we're doing this for Sly because that casefile contains information about the ones who killed Sly's father and stole the pages from the Thievius Raccoonus.
"I see, and it would appear the police have also been looking into this since they have a casefile on them as well." Entrapta figured.
"Yep, but Sly wants to deal with the Fiendish Five himself to get back the pages and avenge his father." Bentley explained.
"Whoa, sounds very deep." Scorpia commented.
"Yeah, but we're here to help Sly get his family heirloom and teach those big meanies a lesson they'll never forget." Murray determined, flexing his muscles a bit.
"And for the first time, our Cooper Gang have gotten bigger with our three new daughters." Sly announced.
Catra, Entrapta, and Scorpia all had their eyes widen of shock upon hearing the one word with a plural at the end of that word.
"What… what did you just call us?" Catra asked, wanting to make sure she heard that right.
"You heard, from this day forth no longer are you girls alone in the world. You have us, your fathers and you will also be training to become a team of thieves too." Bentley said proudly.
"WE GOT A NEW FAMILY!" Scorpia screamed cheerfully as she jumps at Murray hugging each other.
"Oh dear, my teargases are coming and overflowing, my heart is beating 1.09 seconds faster." Entrapta sobbed as tears of joy comes out of her eyes.
"You're… you're not fooling us, right?" Catra asked again, sobbing as well.
"No fooling, we are a family now." Sly hugged Catra much to her shock and quickly return the embrace.
The moment lasted for a few minutes for the girls to sink in the new feeling of getting a family together.
"Catra, ready for your next thief training?" Sly asked with a smirk.
"Bring it on!" Catra excited.
"Okay, let's go." Sly nodded and the two jumps out of the van, climbing up a ladder to the rooftop of a building.
"Our goal is to reach the police station, be careful with your step." Sly warned as he remembers how things went for him starting to run on rooftops.
"Please, I jump through treetops in a daily basis." Catra bragged as she starts running.
"Heh, definitely like me when I was her age." Sly whispered to himself and run after Catra.
They make their way from one roof to another, and Sly use his cane to smash the chemmy away as they jump and lean their backs against the wall while standing on a narrow edge.
"Did you really have to destroy that chemmy?" Catra asked.
"Just want to show you how strong the Cooper cane is." Sly said.
They tiptoe their way to the end where Sly is the police station sign and look back at Catra.
"Okay, we're gonna jump on that sign to hop over to the station." Sly informed.
"Okay." Catra nodded.
She hops on Sly's back and he jump to the top of the "Le Police" sign to hop toward the police station's rooftop.
"Now, it's time to show you the Binocucom." Sly said holding his Binocucom out.
"The what?" Catra confused.
Instead of telling her, Sly put the Binocucom over one eye and shove Catra in for her other eye seeing two little screens as Bentley appears on the left one.
"Sly! Come in! Sly! Do you read me?" Bentley shouted worry.
"Yeah, I read you. Loud and… very loud." Sly groaned a little from the shouting.
"Sorry, I'm a little nervous. Trying break into police headquarters does that." Bentley admitted.
"Whoa, it's like a phone and a telescope at the same time!" Catra amazed of this device.
"Yeah, Bentley made it himself and it's been one of our most important tools. Anyway, we'll be heading for the office of Inspector Carmelita to get the casefile." Sly explained.
"Well, count on me to be your eyes and ears, you two. I decided to let Entrapta hack into their security system which she successfully did and found that to get inside, you're gonna have to go through that air vent." Bentley informed as the Binocucom zooms to the air vent.
"Got it." Sly nodded.
"And don't forget you got me at the wheel, Sly. All you two got to do is grab the file and get back to the van. We'll do the rest." Murray said.
"Oh, and see if you can get a souvenir." Scorpia asked.
"I'll try, you guys just sit tightly." Catra said.
They made their way to the little water tower, but Catra start seeing some blue lights and she can tell that Sly can see them too.
"Hey Bentley, I think we're seeing things. Must be vertigo or something? Can you see those crazy blue lights?" Sly asked.
"Really? I read about this; master raccoon thieves are able to sense the thieving opportunities which manifest themselves as unexplainable blue auras." Bentley explained.
"According to the research note dad-wow, that felt strange in a good way-let me read, you just have to stand very close-next to them and you'll be able to perform a super sneaky master thief move." Entrapta added.
"Okay, thanks." Sly thanked.
Sly and Catra make their way to the air vent going inside and jump down while avoid the security lasers that could set off the alarm if they touch them, then they run through the empty hallway reaching Inspector Fox's red door. Catra check the nob and it wouldn't open.
"It's lock." Catra informed.
"It appears that door must be reinforced, maybe there's a way to get around it." Bentley said.
"On it." Sly said seeing an open window.
Catra look back at the hallway and she gasp seeing Adora here, she quickly to the edge with her newly adopted dad.
"Dad, the girl I met at the clothing shop is here and coming this way." Catra warned.
"Uh, must be a "take your kids to work day" today. Distract her while I get the casefile." Sly instructed.
Catra jump in front of Adora spooking her a bit.
"Catra?" Adora shocked.
"Hey, Adora, right? You here to see what the police here do too?" Catra asked, hoping to keep her at bay.
"You could say that, my aunt is an Interpol Inspect here and I was just heading into her office to wait for her." Adora explained.
"Her office? As in the red door behind me?" Catra asked, pointing her thumb at the red door.
"Yep." Adora answered.
"…Is your aunt by any chance a woman name Carmelita Fox?" Catra asked again.
"Yeah, she's a great officer who kicks bad guys butt into next week! Although, there is this one guy she could never seem to catch, something about a "ringtail" guy." Adora mentioned.
Catra instantly knew that she is talking about Sly and apparently this Inspector Fox has been on the chase to arrest him too.
"Want to come inside, I have the key to her office. She gave in case she isn't here." Adora showed the key which made Catra's fur stand on edge.
"Come on, let's go in." Adora said.
"No, wait!" Catra stand in the way with her arms spread out.
"What? Is something wrong?" Adora confused.
"I just thought… maybe we could walk together." Catra said nervous.
"But it's nighttime, and I don't even feel like walking." Adora assured.
"Really, because you… look like your legs could use the workout." Catra shrugged.
Adora didn't buy it for a bit, something was definitely up with this girl probably bad and maybe she wants a friend to comfort her though she'll need get Catra out of the way first.
"Okay, I guess we could-look, a mouse!" Adora pointed at the hallway.
"Where!" Catra reacted like any cat would trying to look for the mouse while Adora unlocks the door.
"Sorry, but I think you and I could" Adora stopped her sentence when she sees a raccoon man holding a file in his hand about to step out of the window.
"What… who are you and why are taking things from my aunt?" Adora asked.
"Oh, well." Catra sighed and jump on Adora's head to jump at Sly who quickly caught her and climb out of the window.
"Hey, wait!" Adora demanded, shock to see Catra willing going with this man with a ringtail.
"Wait, ringtail? Oh, no!" Adora realized who that man is.
"That could've gone better." Catra muttered.
"Yeah, didn't expect to meet her niece." Sly said.
"Criminal!" A woman's voice shouted.
"And speaking of her." Sly and Catra look up seeing a woman jumping down on a sign.
This is Inspector Carmelita Fox. She's a fox with brownish-orange fur, a beauty mark under her left eye, and thick, wavy blue hair with bangs tied in a braid by a gold hairband. Her outfit includes a dark blue midriff-baring top that zips in the front, form-fitting dark blue pants, and a choker from which her INTERPOL badge hangs. She wears a light brown leather jacket and yellow gloves. She wears a golden hoop piercing on the top of her left ear. Carmelita wears long dark-brown or black combat boots with steel toes with a yellow police star on each one.
"You filthy raccoon! I've caught you red-handed!" Carmelita stated.
"Ahh, Carmelita, I haven't seen you since I gave you the slip in Bonbay." Sly greeted flirtly.
Catra look at Carmelita then suddenly getting a weird yet calm mind about her, this woman who is an officer of the law seems like a mother-figure that Catra never thought of.
"Which reminds me, you need to return the Fire Stone of India to its rightful owners." Carmelita demanded.
"Are you signal?" Catra asked.
"What, who is that girl? You gone stealing kids now?" Carmelita assumed.
"No, nothing like that. She just came to me, literally, and now she is a proud daughter of the Coopers." Sly revealed.
"Daughter?! Since when did you…?" Carmelita shocked.
"Sorry to cut our chat short, but I came here to pick up this case file. I think you had it for long enough." Sly said before jumping down near the parking lot.
"Get back here!" Carmelita started shooting her shock-pistol at Sly hoping to stop him without hurting the little girl.
But it was no use as Sly and Catra hurry into the Cooper Van as Murray drove off to their dangerous and thieving adventure.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
I made this new chapter because I just finished watching the entire fifth and final season of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, it was awesome and almost lead me to tears. I heard that Netflix loved it so much that they're asking for a sixth season or something like that, hope it's true but if not then that's okay.
And thus, the adventure of finding the Fiendish Five has begun! Hope you like how I made Adora appear in the story being the niece of Carmelita Fox and meeting Catra too, though just to be clear they are NOT going to be lovers in their story. Just sister-like friends, but they'll be little enemies to each other at first before that, and it would seem Catra may have already found herself a mother as well.
KO comment, favorite, and follow through of how this story will go!
