Long live the KING

YO, what is up people, it's ya friend, ya pal, ya boy, the KING here baby and I am SO sorry that I haven't been as active lately but I have been busy trying to keep my home tidy while my mom works and my dad, well…he's had four strokes so he had to retire from his job earlier than he planned to and he needs someone to watch out for him AND help my mom out around the house with the dishes, the laundry and picking up after our dog

But at least he's still around which I am thankful to almighty God for that

But the family and me DID have a great day last Saturday when we went to the movies to FINALLY see "Sonic the hedgehog 3" and Keanu Reeves performance as Shadow the hedgehog was SPOT…ON, plus we FINALLY have both Metal Sonic AND Amy Rose in the picture now, but I'm wondering are they gonna stick to the classic formula of Amy being the classic fangirl that we've all known and loved her for so long…or will they try something different, I can't WAIT to find out

Thoughts for later, for today I'm FINALLY back into making Cooper creed stories and this one has been in my mind for a while and NOW…I'm BACK FOR MORE BABY

And I saw a review from "Cooper's creed 3 The Assassin's vault" to that person who posted that review and if he or she is reading this, I understand your reasoning my friend, I…HATED how they ended things in "Sly 4: Thieves in time" that SHITTY ending is JUST WRONG for a classic, beloved character like Sly…well…I'm gonna try my hardest change that in this here story along with some more…noticeable changes here and there

I mean, I think ALL Sly Cooper fans out there can agree that the fourth Sly game while it was about damn TIME that they made it after over a decade of waiting for it…it left a lot and I mean a HELL OF A LOT…to be desired and the ending…don't even get me STARTED on the ending, so I'm gonna do my best to make it more entertaining for you lot but in my own…UNIQUE kind of way…ya'll feel me?

But without delay

I present for your reading pleasure

"Cooper's creed 4 Bonds across time"

Enjoy

Chapter 1 A new beginning

(Sly's P.O.V)

"In case you're late to the party, allow me to refresh your memory…the name is Cooper…Sly Cooper and I'm a thief and an assassin from two long family lines…one thief on my father's side and one assassin on my mother's side, both stretching back hundreds if not thousands of years, I'm the first born from both lines, I used to have a normal life with my three childhood friends Bentley, Murray and the woman who would eventually become my lover, Neyla but then…fate had different plans, an old, sworn enemy of my father's line had come and destroyed my childhood and took my parents from me, a monster by the name of Clockwerk who because of his indomitable hatred for my father's family line of thieves kept himself alive for hundreds of years and was hellbent of erasing my father's blood from the Earth, but thanks to the assassins training from my uncle, Mario, my mom's brother and the help of Bentley and Murray, we tracked down each member of Clockwerk's group, the Fiendish five and avenged what was wronged and I reunited with Neyla after twenty years of being separated, I felt like we were finely safe…but fate proved me wrong, two years had passed since Clockwerk's first defeat but we didn't quite finish the job right, his parts were still intact and if someone had the terrible idea of putting them back together…he could come back and as my luck would have it, someone wanted to try that idea, the Klaww gang, the world's biggest spice-shipping operation led by Arpeggio, while the rest of his gang used them for personal goals, Arpeggio with the help of a deadly mercenary by the name of Slate who aided him in gathering the parts even the one's me and my gang stole wanted to take the body and its immortality for himself but Arpeggio was betrayed by Slate so in the end I had to take down the mechanical nightmare again and this time…permanently, me and my future kids were finally safe from Clockwerk…but at the price of Bentley losing the use of his legs, months had passed since then and an old friend from the past caught my attention, McSweeny an old friend of my mom and uncle, he was like a second uncle to me to, he told me about the inheritance left behind by my assassin ancestors, that they stored it all in the Assassin's vault, hidden away on an island in the North China sea called Lian Yu, it was my birthright to take what was left in the vault…but someone else had beaten me to it, Dr. M, he had set up a fortress on the island and dedicated all his time to cracking open the vault to steal the riches inside of it, though our gang and mine and Neyla's new apprentices were impressive, we were nowhere NEAR the level of talent and skill needed to get at the vault, so we traveled around the world to recruit new members and grow our group into a small army, faces both new and old joined us and eventually, we learned some…horrible truths, Dr. M used to be a member of my uncle and mom's assassin group decades ago and wanted to marry my mom but that was before my dad came into the picture, consumed with overwhelming jealousy and hatred he swore to take what my father took from him and even worse…he wasn't alone…he had someone from our past with him, a white lion by the name of Kion and over the years, M had been filling his head with lies, saying that it was my father's fault that the Fiendish five attacked and destroyed the homestead…and that it was my fault that I took Neyla the girl he loved away from him, me and Neyla fought them in the heart of the Assassin's vault, after defeating them and escaping, we witnessed the final fate of the vault and M and Kion were lost as the mountain that held the vault sank into the sea, it was over and something new came out of this, I found out that Neyla was pregnant with my child or children, either way I would be honored to raise kids with her, so to make it official I asked her to marry me right on the SPOT…everything was falling into place, with the money we collected from the golden dragon statue decorated with all manner of jewelry we took from the vault, we were set for a VERY long time or possibly even for the rest of our lives, everything seemed perfect now…but like the last couple of times, I would NOT have to wait long before fate played ANOTHER hand…and this time…it nearly cost me EVERYTHING that me and my family had fought so hard to keep"

(End of P.O.V) (Three weeks after the Assassin's vault heist) (Paris, France, Paris underground safehouse)

Sly Cooper, the leader of the Cooper gang, fiancée to Neyla and father of the unborn child or children she's currently carrying was currently in the underground Paris hideout, it was two days before his wedding to the love of his life and he had made sure that he had everything, the suits, the written vows, the rings prepared, Neyla and the other females of the group went all NUTS with planning the wedding, so for the day, the husband and wife to be had been living separately to do preparing by themselves with Mario, Bentley, Murray, T'Challa, Zak, Guru, Panda King, Genji, Hanzo, Dimitri and surprisingly the Wong, Nick and even the Black Barron, who thanks to his lawyers, good behavior and full cooperation managed to get permission to attend both Sly's bachelor party and Sly and Neyla's wedding…so long as he was under tracker surveillance of course which he agreed to, all the boys aided Sly in preparing for his wedding while Jasmine, Aria, Helen, Cammy, Shazza, Penelope, Trixie and even Jing King and CARMELITA of all people were helping Neyla to prepare for her wedding, the reason they were living separated was because that it would be bad luck for the groom and bride to be see each other before their wedding day, so Sly was currently having his personal bachelor party, while Sly, Mario, Genji, Hanzo and Wong were throwing knives at a group of targets, Black Barron, Panda King, Dimitri, T'Challa, Nick and Bentley were playing poker and Murray and Zak were playing video games and Guru well he was just enjoying some food that was left over from the great set up the group had

"Alright nephew, try and beat…THIS" Mario said before he threw a knife at one of the many targets they set up, which looked like past members of the Fiendish five like Raleigh, Mz Ruby and Clockwerk and the Klaww gang members, Rajan, Jean Beason and Arpeggio, they didn't put up images of Muggshot and the Contessa because of Trixie and Aria's feelings for those two specific individuals, Mario's knife hit the second highest target, Arpeggio

"Not bad uncle, but" Sly was about to say before he threw his knife and hit the Clockwerk target DEAD center in its left eye

"OOOOOH" Genji and Hanzo exclaimed at once

"My Clockwerk outranks your Arpeggio" Sly said

"You trained your nephew well, Mario" Wong told Sly

"Smart attic" Mario said

"Look who's talking, uncle" Sly replied

"Ha, ha, Touche nephew" Mario replied

"Step aside gentlemen" Wong said before he stepped up and tossed a throwing knife which impacted on Arpeggio's monocle eye

"Damn, Wong you got skills" Genji said

"Yeah, where'd you learn to throw knives" Sly asked

"My father, actually" Wong answered

"Tough upbringing" Mario asked

"Not really, he just asked if I wanted to learn, and I thought it looked cool and…I got good at it" Wong answered

"TRY THIS" Genji said before he tossed a shuriken star and hit Clockwerk in the other eye

"Hmm, I MUST be getting rusty" Mario said

"INCOMING" Hanzo shouted as he threw his throwing knife and hit the Clockwerk target so hard that Sly's knife and Genji's shuriken dropped

"GAAH" Genji exclaimed

"Well, would you look at that" Mario said

"Nice arm, Hanzo" Sly said

"WH…BRO" Genji said

"What" Hanzo asked

"I thought I was the throwing weapon master here" Genji said

"If you spent more time working on your throwing arm than trying to flirt with Shazza then you would do better" Hanzo answered

"Easy for you to say you got a girlfriend now" Genji said

"Jealous" Hanzo asked

"NO" Genji replied quickly before Hanzo gave him a look

"Maybe" Genji muttered, cross his arms

"Is this normal with your group, Sly" Wong asked Sly

"Almost always" Sly answered

"That's normal for a family like ours" Mario added, making Wong chuckle

"Yeah, you get used to it, speaking of family, how have you been with Jing King" Sly asked Wong

"Very well, now that, that AWEFUL Tsao woman is where she belongs for all the misdeeds she has done" Wong answered

"Amen to THAT" Mario said

"So, what about yours and Neyla's child Sly, any ideas what it'll be, a boy, a girl" Wong asked

"Who's to say it's a boy or a girl" Genji asked

"Yeah, for all we know" Hanzo was about to say

"It could be both" Genji and Hanzo said at the same time

"That it could, but me and Neyla both agreed not to reveal the gender and just be…surprised when the baby" Sly was about to say

"Or babies" Genji and Hanzo said at the same time

"Right, we wanted it to be a surprise" Sly said

"Hmm, I understand, not knowing what life might throw at you is one of its more…interesting factors" Wong said

"Speaking of kids, you feel like you and Jing King might wanna cross that bridge when you guys get to it" Genji asked Wong

"Well…we've been talking about it for a bit" Wong said

"And" Mario asked

"While Jing King wants perhaps one or two, I would personally like to have many, keep the Panda King's newly redeemed legacy alive" Wong answered

"I bet master would LOVE to have some grandkids running around" Hanzo said

"Yeah, I can TOTALLY see little panda's running around" Genji added before Sly threw another throwing knife which hit Clockwerk target in-between the eyes and knocked Hanzo's throwing weapon loose and it feel to the ground

"I think that's game, Hanzo" Sly told Hanzo

"Your good, boss…your good" Hanzo said

"Damn right, I am" Sly replied

"Alright chaps, what's your bet" Black Barron asked as he, Panda King, Dimitri, T'Challa, Nick and Bentley were playing poker and were betting money

"Regrettably I am unable to continue betting" Panda King said as he folded

"Ditto to that dude" Dimitri added as he to folded

"I say, T'Challa are you in my boy" Black Barron asked T'Challa

"Yeah, I'm in" T'Challa said as he put more money on the table

"Sorry, I gotta tap out here" Nick added as he dropped his cards and left the table

"I haven't even begun to fight, I raise" Bentley said as he upped his betting money

"I SAY…rather bold one's aren't the lot of you" Black Barron asked

"Well, we ARE the Cooper family, what's your raise, Barron" T'Challa asked

"Hmmm…how about…THIS" Black Barron said as he put something on the table, it was a golden mettle

"OOOOOH, bling, bling" Dimitri said

"The first mettle I EVER won, solid GOLD" Black Barron said

"Was that before or AFTER you started cheating" Bentley asked

"Before, I swear it" Black Barron answered

"I see, so THAT'S where we're going" Bentley said

"Indeed, I am" Black Barron replied

"Well…in that case, I raise…THIS" T'Challa said as he put up his sword

"T'Challa, Sly GAVE you that sword" Bentley said

"Cat boy must be cockier than a proud rooster to bet something like that" Dimitri said

"Hmm, we shall see" Panda King said

"Bentley, you in" T'Challa asked

"How about…THIS" Bentley asked as he put something on the table, it was a flawless, white diamond

"WHOA" Dimitri said

"Thief-net" T'Challa asked

"One of the…few things I managed to hold onto" Bentley said

"Then I feel sorry gents but four of a kind" Black Barron said showing his cads

"Not as bad as THIS, straight flush" Bentley said, showing his cards, the two then looked at T'Challa

"Well, T'Challa, my boy" Black Barron asked, T'Challa then showed his hand, making the other players either go wide-eyed or gasp

"MASTER" T'Challa called out to Sly

"Yeah" Sly asked from across the room

"In the honor of your wedding…a ROYAL…FLUSH" T'Challa said

"You do ME great honor T'Challa" Sly replied before T'Challa collected his winnings

"How did kick-ass cat learn to play cards as good as I DANCE" Dimitri asked

"Lots of practice in-between training sessions and breaks" T'Challa answered

"Well played" Panda King said

"You're looking a little bit nervous over there Murray" Zak told Murray as they played "Sonic riders"

"Oh, you'd like to think that wouldn't you, little bro" Murray replied, Murray was playing with Knuckles and Zak with…who else, Sonic

"COME ON BABY, GOTTA GO FAST" Zak shouted as the two racers made a mad dash for the finish line and

"BOOYAH, SONIC FOR THE WIN" Zak shouted

"DAAH, CRUD" Murray grunted as Zak did a victory dance

"OH, YEAH, OH, OH, OH YEAH, WHOO" Zak shouted in victory

"You did well Murray, that is all one can do…after all…it is not real" Guru told Murray

"I know master but…sometimes I can't stand being on the loosing side forever" Murray said

"Don't take it so hard big guy, your just better at brawling and driving real cars I'm better at video games" Zak said

"I guess" Murray said

"Hmm, I don't know about you chaps but I'm still hungry is there anything left" Black Barron asked

"I too am still hungering for something" Panda King added

"Hey there's an all-night station not far from here, Sly how about you, me and T'Challa make a food and drink run" Nick asked

"Yeah, sounds good to me" Sly said

"I'm in" T'Challa added

"I need something more to eat as well, I'm joining you lot" Wong said

"That's no problem, any requests anyone" Nick asked the others

"BEER" Dimitri called

"Please, we are inebriated enough, perhaps a nice, hot cup of coffee would be nice" Panda King said

"Anything in it, or just regular" Sly asked

"Hmm, some honey would do nicely" Panda King answered

"You got it" Sly replied

"Now he's the smart one, he's trying to spare himself the hangover that morning brings" Black Barron said

"How about some pizza" Genji called

"And some of those bread sticks" Hanzo added

"I figured as much" Nick said

"Does this place serve chicken fried steak" Black Barron asked Nick

"With or without white gravy" Nick asked

"With gravy chap" Black Barron answered

"I'll be sure to get you a big one, Panda King, they got Ramen there, care for some" Nick asked Panda King

"Hmm, now that you mention it, that would be nice" Panda King replied

"Eh, cop brother, grab me a BIG bag of Doritos, would ya" Dimitri asked Nick

"Nacho, Spicy or Cool ranch" Nick asked

"Nacho, cop bro" Dimitri answered

"Fine just…don't call me cop bro, would ya" Nick asked

"That's cool with me" Dmitri replied

"Mario, Bentley, Murray, Zak, Guru anything" Nick asked the other men

"Not me, this will be enough to satisfy me" Guru answered as he kept munching on the leftovers

"Beef jerky and some Ginger ale would be nice" Mario answered

"Two, triple cheeseburgers with a LARGE Mountain Dew" Murray answered

"Some cheese fries and Diet Coke if you please" Bentley answered

"The beast is HUNGRY for peanut butter-filled snicker BARS" Zak said

"That's the LAST think you need tonight, after all you DID hog nearly all the soda pop" T'Challa said

"Yeah, anymore and you're going to vomit city" Nick told Zak

"MEH, still worth it" Zak replied

"We'll be back" Nick told the others

"I'll go get the van" T'Challa said

"HEY, BE CAREFUL WITH MY VAN" Murray called out

"I PROMISE I WILL" T'Challa said before he took off

"I will…make sure he keeps his word" Wong said before he joined T'Challa

"Sly, would you mind stepping to the side for a bit…I gotta ask you something" Nick told Sly

"Yeah, sure" Sly answered as they walked to the side

"So, what's up" Sly asked, Nick then showed him something he had in his pocket

"Well…you know how me and Carm have been…a thing for a while now and…well" Nick tried to say as he showed a small box with a RING in it, Sly's eyes then widened

"Dude…are you THINKING…what I THINK you're THINKING" Sly asked Nick

"I wanna ask Carmelita to marry me" Nick said

"DUDE, MY GOD THAT'S GREAT" Sly said as he hugged Nick and he hugged back

"But are you SURE you wanna make her your iron ball and chain, I mean, no offence against her or your taste in women but um…you know how she can be sometimes" Sly told Nick

"I think that's part of her charm" Nick said

"Yeah, about as charming as a cobra" Sly replied

"I'M SERIOUS HERE" Nick replied

"KIDDING, I'm kidding" Sly replied

"Look, I know she can be a little…much a lot of times, but to me that's a big part of the reason I love her this much, you know she's one of the very few truly GOOD cops in this world that can't be bought, and she's absolutely dedicated to true justice, I've made up my mind…I wanna make her Miss Carmelita Wilds" Nick answered

"Huh, can't lie that has a nice ring to it" Sly said

"And…I was wondering" Nick tried to say

"Wondering what" Sly asked

"If…you wouldn't mind being the best man at my wedding" Nick asked

"Nick…dude, it would be my honor" Sly replied then the horn from the garage was heard

"MASTER, NICK, HURRY UP" T'Challa called

"WE'RE COMING…you SLICK as axel grease fox YOU" Sly told Nick with a playful punch to the shoulder who laughed in return

"Someone tell a funny joke" T'Challa asked

"Tell ya later, for now" Nick said as he put on a pair of shades

"It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago…we got a full tank of gas…a half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and" Nick was about to say before he pulled out another pair of sun glasses and gave em to Sly before he flicked em open and put em on

"We're wearing sunglasses…hit it T'Challa" Sly told T'Challa

"You got it Jake and Elwood" T'Challa replied before he punched it and sped off

(At Carmelita's apartment)

For Neyla's bachelorette party, Carmelita, Jasmine, Aria, Helen, Cammy, Shazza, Penelope, Trixie and Jing King were all at Carmelita's apartment to spend the night as ladies tend to spend it, they had some good food that they ordered from the BEST Italian restaurant in Paris, Cammy and Jasmine managed to talk them into painting nails and toenails even SHAZZA of all people was somehow convinced to paint her nails and toenails, they did their hair, watched some GREAT movies and I'm talking the good, CLASSICS like "Smokey and the bandit", "Brave heart" and the original "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", they had some good drinks on the side to, though they kept the alcohol beverages away from Neyla, you know because of the baby or babies in her belly, the ladies were just basically chilling

"AAAAAAAAAAH…this is the life, huh ladies" Neyla asked as she relaxed on the sofa

"You can say THAT again, sister" Cammy said

"This is nice…very nice" Helen said

"Never would I imagine in a thousand or even MILLION years that I would be having a get-together with a group of criminals" Carmelita said as she was getting her nails painted by Jasmine

"We live in strange times, eh" Jasmine asked

"You got that right"" Carmelita replied

"This movie, I have seen a few of them back in China but I have NEVER seen one so emotional before" Jing King said as they watched Brave heart

"It was one of my dad's favorite movies, he promised that when I was old enough that we would watch it together" Neyla said

"And even better it's based off REAL life events, the story of William Wallis" Aria said

"This William person he has honor worthy of a Samurai" Jing King said

*Yeah, I just wish the ending wasn't so…sad* Carmelita said in her head, she had seem Brave heart plenty of times and it is without a doubt a masterpiece but to her it would have been better if William Wallis didn't die, she kept it quiet because she didn't know if anyone in the room saw the movie before and she didn't wanna spoil it for her friends…that word "friends" made the cop in her shutter a little

"So, Trixie" Aria spoke up

"Yeah" Trixie asked as she was eating some of the takeout Italian

"You and T'Challa have been getting rather close lately, have you" Aria asked, Trixie nearly choked and coughed a couple of times before she caught her breathe

"Wh-WHAT" Trixie asked

"Don't play dumb with us, Trixie, I've seen the way you and T'Challa look at each other…he's into you" Neyla told her

"Yeah, girl, come on spill it" Cammy told Trixie

"Tell you what" Trixie asked

"Do you wanna borrow my glasses" Penelope asked Trixie

"I've NEVER needed those damn things, WHY would I wanna borrow yours" Trixie asked

"Because your obviously blind to the fact that T'Challa has a thing for you" Cammy answered

"Are you" Jasmine asked Trixie

"D…don't be ridiculous, he's just" Trixie was about to say

"Just what" Neyla asked

"Yeah, what ARE you two, you obviously get along really well" Aria said

"We respect each other's as warriors" Trixie answered

"Yeah, she's into him" Carmelita said

"Obviously" Neyla said

"They're definitely a thing" Cammy added

"WE'RE NOT" Trixie nearly shouted

"Who is Trixie having a "thing" with exactly" Jing King asked the other girls

"That would be T'Challa, one of Sly's apprentice's, you meet him when you came to Paris, remember the black panther" Penelope asked

"Oh, yes I remember…so, she and him" Jing King asked

"Well…not officially but, there have been…moments" Shazza said

"Like" Jing King asked

"For one, T'Challa saved Trixie's life back on a job we did in the Caribbean sea's" Cammy answered

"And they had a rather touching moment when they got to know each other's on the Sekhmet…told each other their stories" Aria added

"And there is the occasional stars at each other that they don't think anyone notices" Helen added

"I CAN HEAR YOU LOT" Trixie said

"WE KNOW" Aria, Helen and Cammy said at the same time

"Trixie, relax this is part of being a family, they make you stronger…but they can also drive you NUTS" Neyla said

"Hmm" Trixie muttered as she drank from her drink

"So…are you gonna take T'Challa as your date for the wedding" Penelope asked Trixie

"None of your business" Trixie answered

"Yeah, she's gonna" Aria said

"Definitely" Jasmine said

"Speaking of which, what about you Carmelita" Shazza asked

"Me" Carmelita asked

"Yeah, you and that other cop, Nick" Shazza said, Carmelita then blushed a little

"I don't know what you mean" Carmelita said before she drank some of her drink

"You and he fucked already didn't you" Trixie asked, Carmelita then spat out her drink and coughed

"Wh-WHAT" Cammy asked

"Huh" Helen muttered

"We…we did NOT" Carmelita tried to say

"Girl PLEASE, I worked with Muggshot and his literal horny dog's, I recognize both a lustful eye and the look of a person who's got it on in the bedroom with a hottie…you and Nicky-boy did the deed already, didn't you, DON'T deny it" Trixie said

"Wait…Carm, you and NICK" Neyla was about to say

"Don't you DARE" Carmelita said

"YOU TWO HOOKED UP" Cammy asked

"SERIOUSLY" Jasmine asked

"Did you two REALLY" Shazza asked

"Come on, Carm SPILL IT" Trixie said

"WOULD YOU LOT SHUT IT my love life is NOT important here" Carmelita said

"Oh, so when it's MY love life it's all fun and games but when it's YOURS" Trixie was about to say

"Hey, I'm a COP which mean I got the authority to arrest and the gun to SHOOT your ass" Carmelita told Trixie who pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Carmelita

"And I'm just as much of a badass and crack shot with a gun to" Trixie replied

"WHOA, where did you keep THAT" Cammy asked

"Rule one of being a former member of Muggshot's crew, always come packing heat" Trixie replied

"Ladies, ladies, please this is a time of celebration for Neyla" Jing King said, trying to keep the peace

"Yeah, girls PLEASE, can we just keep the peace, for mine and Sly's wedding" Neyla asked

"Not just yet…I want an honest answer from Carm…did you and Nicky-boy DO IT" Trixie asked Carmelita

"If I answer that will you leave me the hell alone" Carmelita asked

"No promises but if you don't answer I'll just keep pushing for an answer" Trixie replied

"Girl, come ON, share with the class" Cammy said

"You might as well" Shazza said, Carmelita then sighed

"Okay, FINE…fine" Carmelita said

"Then tell it girl" Jasmine said

"Okay, YES…Nick and me…DID share a night together" Carmelita said

"No…WAY" Neyla said

"YOU DID" Jasmine said

"SERIOUSLY" Aria asked

"Shocking" Helen said

"HA, TRIXIE CALLED IT" Cammy said

"Hmm…kind of saw it" Shazza said

"I didn't see it coming" Penelope said

"Now see…was that so hard a thing to do" Trixie asked as she withdrew her gun

"The HARDEST thing I've ever done, you happy now" Carmelita asked

"Very" Trixie answered

"But this is good, you have someone to love, yes" Jing King asked Carmelita

"Tell us EVERYTHING girl, is he nice, does he make you breakfast in bed, does he take you to dinners, NO-NO-NO-NO-NO…tell us how GOOD his performance was in the bed" Cammy asked

"Yes, PLEASE" Jasmine said

"Cammy I'm NOT a gossiping schoolgirl" Carmelita said

"CARM…you haven't had so much as a single person to get close to since…ever…and here we are learning that you feel your THAT close to Nick" Neyla said as she put an arm around Carmelita

"That's GREAT, your finally living life" Neyla told her, Carmelita smiled

"You know, despite being a criminal…you're still the best friend I've had" Carmelita said as she and Neyla hugged and chuckled

"And always will be…despite being on opposite sides of the law and you know…I think if me and Sly do have a girl…I wanna name her after you" Neyla said

"Me" Carmelita asked

"I was thinking Lita Cooper, what do you think" Neyla asked, Carmelita paused before she smiled

"I…would be honored…really I would" Carmelita answered

"Lita Cooper, that's got a nice ring to it" Aria said

"Yeah, I like it" Trixie added

"A fine name but what about boy names…that is if you have a boy instead of a girl" Jing King asked

"I was…think about naming a boy after Sly's father…Connor Jr." Neyla answered as she rubbed her pregnant belly with a warm smile on her face

"Connor…a strong name" Shazza said

"I think Sly would like that very much, in honor of his father" Trixie said making Neyla smile

(Two days later, Saint-Sulpice church)

It was the day that Sly had only been dreaming about since…possibly half his entire life, the day he would marry Neyla, sure he had a crush or as he would put it love for Neyla since they were kids, even before he knew what love WAS, but it wasn't until he reached teenage years did he start thinking about it, being married to Neyla and he honestly liked that idea…he liked that idea VERY much, so much so that sometimes it would be the ONLY thing that he could think about, no he did more than like it he DESIRED that possibility to become a reality, possibly more so than anything else, but he never thought he would get the chance seeing as it had been twenty years since he saw her last after the Fiendish five's attack on the Homestead and though he never said it to Bentley or Murray, in the back of his mind, he was haunted by the thought that she might have already moved on, if not worse…married and had a family with another man…but then he reunited with Neyla and…everything just fell into place like one, big puzzle from that point on, Sly and his gang booked the largest church in Paris, Saint-Sulpice to host the wedding and this is where Sly and Neyla would tie the knot and be husband and wife, bonded together forever more

"Hmm…nice" Sly muttered as he looked at himself in a mirror after putting on the tuxedo that Mario had brought him

"Looking sharp nephew" Mario said

"You should talk, decades later and you still got is uncle" Sly said as he looked at the elder raccoon in his tuxedo

"What, this old thing…I haven't worn it since your mother and father's wedding so many years ago" Mario said

"Come on uncle, once you got it you never lose it" Sly replied before Mario took a look at his nephew

"What" Sly asked

"It's just that…you look so much like your father right now…I just wish that he and your mother" Mario was about to say

"I know uncle…me to, but at least I still have you and the others, as long as I do, I'll be okay, especially Neyla" Sly said, Mario then hugged his nephew and Sly hugged him back

"I honestly don't think I would have turned out like this had you…shared my parent's fate that day" Sly said

"I'm proud of you nephew" Mario said

"Only because I had such a damn good teacher" Sly replied before the two separated

"And an even better uncle" Sly added, Mario smiled

"Your damn right" Mario replied

"Looking good Sly" The voice of Murray spoke up as he and Bentley walked into the room and when I say walk…I MEAN walked, because…BENTLEY IS WALKING, THAT'S RIGHT, the experimental surgery that Bentley talked about before the gang went after the Assassin's vault was a SUCCESS, he has regained the usage of his legs a week ago and while he had to go through and is still going through physical therapy to get strength back in his legs, he's just glad to FINALLY be able to walk again, to FEEL the dirt and grass beneath his feet and in-between his toes once again and he was determined to get back to what he was before he lost the use of his legs

"How do we look" Bentley asked

"Looking snazzy guys, REAL snazzy" Sly answered

"I don't know, I feel so…restricted in this thing" Murray said

"It's for Sly's wedding day Murray" Mario said

"I know sir and I'm wearing it…but I feel like the destructive powers of the Murray are restrained" Murray said

"Once the formal stuff is over you can rip that thing off" Mario told Murray

"How are the legs doing Bentley" Sly asked

"Feeling GREAT…I never thought I would know what this feels like again" Bentley said

"Well enjoy it buddy, you've EARNED it" Murray said

"Not to mention NOW…you can dance with that girlfriend of yours" Sly added

"You KNOW it" Bentley replied, Mario then checked his watch

"Well nephew…it's time" Mario said, Sly nodded before taking one last look in the mirror to make sure things were right about his attire before he breathed in and then out to calm himself

"Alright" Sly said

(With Neyla and the other girls)

As maids of honor Carmelita and Penelope were helping Neyla prepare for her wedding, helping her to get dressed

"Too tight, to lose" Penelope asked Neyla

"No, JUST right" Neyla said as she looked in the mirror

"How's it look" Neyla asked

"Neyla…you're as beautiful as a Sakura blossom tree in full bloom" Jing King said

"Honey, you never look more beautiful" Jasmine said

"Yeah, when Sly sees you in this dress he's eyeballs are gonna pop out like a wine bottle cork" Trixie said

"I wouldn't be surprised if his nose bleeds a little" Shazza added making the girls giggle or chuckle

"By the way Trixie…you look real nice in your dress" Neyla told Trixie who was sporting a lovely, purple dress

"Yeah, T'Challa was right, purple is SO your color girl" Cammy said

"Okay, so ninja boy actually knows a little bit about colors that fit" Trixie said

"And THERE" Penelope said as she and Carmelita finished Neyla's dress

"You look great Neyla" Carmelita said

"Thanks" Neyla said before her smile dimmed a little

"Is something wrong" Carmelita asked

"Cold feet" Aria asked

"No…I just…wish my parents were here to see this" Neyla answered

"They are" Jing King said as she walked up to Neyla

"They will never leave you, no matter what" Jing King told her as she put a comforting hand on her shoulder

"Thank you" Neyla said as she put her hand on Jing King's hand

"Thank you, Jing" Neyla said

"You're welcome" Jing King said

"Neyla…we're here for you now…we are your sem'ya now" Helen said (For those who don't know Sem'ya means "Family" in Russian)

"That, uh Russian for family" Cammy asked

"Yes" Helen answered

"Well…it's time Neyla" Carmelita told her friend, Neyla nodded before she breathed in and then breathed out

"Wish your momma good luck" Neyla whispered to her unborn child or children in her belly

(In the chapel)

Everything was set up, the Cooper gang wasn't expecting many people to be at this wedding, sure there was Mario, Bentley, Murray, Jasmine, Aria, T'Challa, Zak, Helen, Cammy, Guru, Shazza, Penelope, Panda King, Genji, Hanzo, Trixie and of course the visiting guests Carmelita, Nick, Jing King and Black Barron but to people's surprise and even SHOCK…Aria invited her aunt, A.K.A the CONTESSA, as in the one who tried to brainwash Carmelita, held Mario, Nick and Neyla hostage, former member of the Klaww gang and hypnotized Murray into a ragging MADMAN, the gang was SHOCKED at first but to their surprise Aria said she invited her and even MORE shocking…Neyla ALLOWED her to do so and she didn't tell Sly about it, at first he was…understandably angry because of Contessa holding his soon-to-be wife and only living blood relative left on Earth hostage, but Aria insisted that Contessa had been doing extremely well serving out her sentence and she asked for permission to attend Sly and Neyla's wedding after Aria told her about it in one of her letters to her, so with the condition that they place a tracking device on Contessa which she wore at all times and checked in with her handler every two hours then she could attend the wedding, at first Sly was…skeptical at first but seeing as how it was a special day and they he's forgiven someone even worse than the Contessa like the Panda King in the past, he decided to let her attend after all he trusted Neyla and if she believes that she deserves a chance then he should show trust in Neyla, also people that NOBODY were expecting which included a familiar face to Sly in the form of a lizard woman by the name of Lucy that he remembered freeing from Sir Raleigh a few years ago (Remember Lucy from "Cooper's creed and the Fiendish five" that served Raleigh as his maid?) turns out one of Nick's cop friends is brother to Lucy and he heard through a crack in Carmelita's office door that Sly was getting married and they were gonna attend, he came in and confronted them, at first they though he was gonna rat them out, but instead he asked for a small favor to keep their secret, he asked they to let his sister and he to come with them to Sly and Neyla's wedding in order to personally thank Sly for helping his twin sister, Lucy get away from Raleigh and he swore not to rat on em, Nick said Lucy's brother, a jade green-skinned lizard by the name of Lance was a man of his word so he let the two attend and they weren't the only ones, a few of Neyla's buddies from her former law enforcement job showed up, she had been secretly in contact with them, just to let them know she was okay during her time abroad with Sly and the others but overtime they wanted to meet the man who stole Neyla's heart, so she invited them which Sly was shocked but after meeting the four friends of her's, one was a male falcon named Ja-Kal, the second a male cobra named Rath, the fourth a male ram named Armon and the last, a female cat named Nefer-Tina (If you guys know these four names from a 1997 animated TV show, kudos to ya), they were good, honest people and they weren't ANYTHING to mess with, they're military special forces and even though they didn't say which special forces they were, both Sly and Mario could tell from one look that they were the REAL deal, they gave their words that they wouldn't cause trouble, like the Contessa if Neyla decided to put her trust in these people they Sly should have trust in her as well, everyone was in position with Sly standing at the alter with Murray and Bentley standing to Sly's left

"You nervous buddy" Bentley asked Sly

"I…I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous even a little bit" Sly answered

"Don't be, everyone gets a little nervous on their wedding day" Bentley replied

"We're with ya Sly" Murray said

"To the end" Bentley added which made Sly smile

"Thanks brothers" Sly replied

"Oh, Sly…look who it is" Bentley said as Sly looked down the aisle and his eyes widened and jaw dropped at the sight before him, as "Here comes the bride" was played he saw what looked like an angel that came down from the Heaven's above, Neyla was in an absolutely GORGEOUS, pure white wedding dress with Jing King holding the back of Neyla's vail up while Mario walked her down the aisle as if he was her father

*My…GOD…she's an angel…and she's gonna be my wife* Sly said in his mind as he couldn't take his eyes off her and she wasn't the only one, Neyla couldn't take her eyes off Sly who looked so handsome in his tuxedo and slicked up to look as good as possible, she swore he looked like the handsome prince that was turned into a hideous beast but thanks to a princess was transformed back to normal

*WOW, Sly looks like he stepped out of a fairytale…he should fancy himself up like that more often* Neyla said in her mind

"Wow…Neyla's never looked more beautiful" Murray said

"Yeah" Bentley replied before looking at his own girlfriend who stood on the opposite side of the alter along with the other bridesmaid Helen and Cammy and the maid of honor, Carmelita and of course, at the alter about to wed the two was Panda King in traditional, Chinese priest outfit, soon Neyla and Mario came up and it was time

"Who gives this woman to this man" Panda King asked

"I do" Mario answered before he kissed her on the cheek

"Welcome to the family Neyla" Mario told her as she presented Neyla to Sly before joining Bentley and Murray

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today, friends both old and new as well as former foes turned into allies and some even friends in order to bind two people as one and to celebrate the wedding of Sly Cooper and Neyla…if anyone here has any doubts as to why these two should not be joined together in holy matrimony…let him or her speak now…or forever hold your peace" Panda King called out and no one answered Panda King then continued

"Now, the couple would like to say their vows" Panda King said, Neyla and Sly then faced each other before Neyla started

"Sly Cooper, when we played together a little kids on the Homestead, it felt like life back then was a completely different PLANET from where we stand now, but…then fate showed its hand and honestly…I thought I would never see you again, right before it happened you saw me drawing a little love heart with our initials in it in my diary…truth is I liked you and I wanted to tell you that myself…then the whole thing with the Fiendish five happened and I thought you were lost to me, for twenty YEARS, I felt like this huge hole was just BLASTED right through my chest like I got hit by a cannonball, many of my colleagues and cop friends…present company included said I should move on but even when they set me up on dates…I just…didn't have the nerve to even so much as TALK to those guys, in all honestly it felt like if I DID, it would…betray you, betray a feeling that I've had in my heart for a LONG time telling me that you were out there, ALIVE somewhere and when we reunited after so long…I felt my heart being pulled back together after it had been SHATTERED into so many pieces I didn't think I would EVER be able to love anyone ever again…and since then you have been there for me, you never left my side, you stayed with me through hard and good times and when you asked me to marry you, honestly…I wondered why you didn't ask me to marry you after the Fiendish five was beaten on the spot, I would have said yes in a heartbeat if you did, THAT'S just how much I LOVED you, you are the man of my dreams, my one and only soulmate and one of the three BEST thing that has ever happened to me, what we're doing now is the second and the life…or lives growing in my belly right now is the third, I will stay at your side through the good and the bad, no matter what life throws our way…I am YOURS…Sly Cooper and no other man's" Neyla said her vows, now it was Sly's turn before he cleared his throat

"Neyla…when the Homestead and my previous life was so brutally ripped away from me…I felt like my world descended into PURE darkness, had it not been for Mario's guidance and love and the support I had from Murray and Bentley, I probably would have DROWNED in said darkness, I just had SO…MUCH…PAIN and ANGER inside me and over the years I felt as though my anger turned from a flame into a STORM of rage just SWELLING inside of me, so much of it that I felt like I was gonna BURST…but, after I reunited with you…I felt like that anger and pain just…vanished faster than blowing out a candle light, like they were nothing but a cloud of mist in the wind, millions of miles away from me, while there were bad times that followed after we reunited, the good times that YOU brought back into my life FAR outweighed the bad, I love, treasure and adore you with EVERYTHING that I have, my mind, my heart and my soul…no other lady in this world matters to me as much as you do to me, I look forward to the birth of our future child or children, watching our family grow, waking up every morning and falling asleep every night in your embrace, I look forward to our first Halloween as a family as we parade around in our outfits, our first Thanksgiving as a family where we stuff ourselves so full that we fill just as full as the stuffed turkey, our first Christmas as a family as we seat warming ourselves by the fire with a hot cup of coco and listen to the kids say "I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus", our first Valentine's day as a family where I will fall in love with you all over again…as if falling in love with you for the first time, our first Easter as a family where we watch out kid or kids hunt for eggs…and every other waking moment of being a family and even through the harshest of times, I will NEVER EVER regret taking you as my wife, whatever the future has in store for me…I look forward to spending it with you and I can't wait for it" Sly said his vows

"Now…do you, Sly Cooper take Neyla to be your lawful, wedded wife…to have and to hold…for better or for worse…for richer or pour…forsaking all other women, till death do you part" Panda King asked

"I do, now until the end of time" Sly answered

"And do you, Neyla take Sly Cooper to be your lawful, wedded husband…to have and to hold…for better or for worse…for richer or pour…forsaking all other men, till death do you part" Panda King asked

"I do, now and always" Neyla answered

"The rings" Panda King called as both the best man and maid of honor brought the rings

"Neyla…with this ring, I give to you my undying love and my absolute loyalty and commitment to you" Sly said as he slipped Neyla's ring on her ring finger

"Sly…with this ring, I give you my undying love and my absolute loyalty and commitment to you" Neyla said as she slipped Sly's ring on his ring finger

"Then by the power invested in me…I am honored to pronounce you…man…and wife…you may kiss the bride" Panda King said, finally the moment had come where Sly and Neyla both had dreamt about for what seemed like forever, Sly then took the veil off Neyla, revealing her face before the two of them embraced each other in their first kiss of being a married couple now they were forever bonded together to each other, the crowd of guests and their family clapped and cheered for the new husband and wife, after separating the two turned to the crowd of friends and family

"It is with great pleasure that I present to you all for the first time…Mister…and Misses…Sly Cooper" Panda King said as everyone stood and clapped and cheered for the happy couple again the couple themselves felt like nothing could stop em now…or…so they thought, unannounced to them as they danced to music, celebrated, laughed and ate food and drank a toast to the new husband and wife…someone was watching them using a small drone which hovered silently in one of the corners of the chapel

(Unknown location)

As the wedding was going on in a room with several computer monitors, shadowed figures watched what unfolded and studied the members of the Cooper family

"Well, isn't this enough romance to make you wanna vomit" One of the shadowed figures said

"They call THOSE'S ugly excuses for tuxedo's fresh, BOY, they trippin" Another shadowed figure said

"But you have to admit the dresses the ladies wear are rather stylish" Another shadowed figure said

"Eh, I prefer gold to pretty women" Another shadowed figure said

"Says a guy who's either got nothing to impress them with or no amount of money you got can PAY them enough to spend so much as an hour with you, let alone a single night" Another shadowed figure told the last one who pulled out a gun and pointed it at the other figure

"Say that to my FACE, if you dare" The shadow figure holding the gun said before the figure he held the gun against suddenly whistled before barking was heard and then a BUNCH of red eyes came out of the darkness, growling at the figure holding the gun on the one who whistled for them

"You shoot me, they tear you apart limb by painful limb" The whistling figure told the gun-holding figure

"Oh, would you two STOP fighting like spoiled, little CHILDREN" Another one of the figures said making the gun-holding figure and whistling figure back off

"Another time perhaps" The gun-wielding figure told the whistling figure

"Name the time and place two-gun idiot" The whistling figure replied

"How DARE that tiger steal MY MAN away from me, when I get my TALONS ON HER" One of the figures was about to say

"ENOUGH ALREADY" A new voice spoke up as three more figures walked into the room

"The master speaks" The same shadowy figure said as the "master" stepped up

"I did not bring all of you here so you could fight amongst yourselves like a bunch of children arguing over a toy, I brought you here to CHANGE history not just for yourselves but also for the greater good…if any of you have a problem then my brother here will gladly show you the door out" The master said, pointing to one of the figures before said figure slightly unsheathed a sword that was in its holster on his lower back, none of the figures said anything

"Good" The master said before the sword figure sheathed the blade

"Now, you will all get what was promised you, fame, wealth, personal gain and more, but first" The master said before he pressed a button on a wrist device on his left wrist which made several images of the Cooper family appear on the largest of the many screens in front of them

"Study each member of their "family" learn their strengths, weaknesses, tactics…everything you need to know about them to take them down" The master said

"Please, these are CHILDREN" One of the figures said

"They are nothing but useless tumbleweeds in the wind" Another of the figures said

"These "tumbleweeds" have already bested two of us in this room and have overcome even greater odds before and after them…we underestimate them and that leaves us vulnerable to being outsmarted at best and humiliated at WORST, but if you all play your parts right, not only will you get what all of YOU want…but also make sure that Cooper…will never become who he is" The master said

"Then why don't we strike NOW while they're guard is lowered" One of the figures asked

"Because we still need a few more things before our plan can get started…how is our friend doing getting the information we need" The master asked

"Ask her yourself" One of the figures said as another figure was busy at multiple computer's hacking into something

"Please, this security firewall is so outdated it makes a flying car look like a three-wheeled Benz Patent motor car" The hacking figure said as the figure hacked away

"How long before you have what we want" The sword figure asked

"As long as it takes me to get what we all want" The hacking figure answered

"Well WORK…FASTER" One of the figures said

"You wanna give it a try…NO…then unless you got someone else in mind with a two-ten I.Q, back off and let me do my work" The hacker figure said

"SMARTASS" The last figure growled

"Perhaps THIS will speed your process" The master said as he handed something to the hacking, it was a lollipop

"OOOOH" The hacker figure said

"Your favorite flavor, birthday cake" The master said before the hacker figure took it, unwrapped it and put it in their mouth

(Hey…birthday cake is my favorite flavor to)

"MMMMMM…THAT'S the boost I need" The hacker figure said before speeding up

"Why do we need this TEENAGER" One of the figures asked

"This teenager is one of the smartest people in the world and ever since my old master meet his end at the hands of Cooper, she is the ONLY one smart enough to do this, so like she said unless you know someone SMARTER then let her work" Another figure explained

"Relax yourself, everything is going according to plan" The master said

(8:50 P.M that night, Le Royal Monceau hotel)

The most expensive, five-star hotel in ALL of Paris, Le Royal Monceau, with the money the Cooper gang got from the statue they found in the Assassin's vault, they were now celebrating in style as they booked the BIGGEST suit that the hotel had to celebrate, while Mario, Bentley, Murray, T'Challa, Zak, Guru, Panda King, Genji, Hanzo, Dimitri, Carmelita, Jasmine, Aria, Helen, Cammy, Shazza, Penelope, Trixie, Jing King, Lucy, Lance, Ja-Kal, Rath, Armon and Nefer-Tina partied, both the Black Barron and Contessa had to return to their respected homes, they were after all on probation but they did tell their family members that they had a great time, even the Contessa seemed to change a little bit, she was actually polite and nice and even apologized for what she had done in the past, after the two parted with the others, the others partied in the biggest, most expensive suit they had on the very top of the hotel, Sly and Neyla took off for their honeymoon which took them to Hawaii, it was a great afterparty

"I can't believe it, my nephew and Neyla married" Mario said as he, Dimitri and three of the new guys, Lance, Ja-Kal and Rath were playing poker at a poker table

"I never would have thought I would be playing poker with some of the most wanted men on the planet" Rath said

"Me neither, but if Nick says these guys are cool then I trust him…after all Cooper did help with my sister" Lance said

"I know the feeling like I know a dance floor" Dimitri said

"The playing poker with wanted men or the part where Cooper helped you" Ja-Kal asked

"Both" Dimitri answered

"Well, life is just about as predictable as a person with a multiple personality disorder" Ja-Kal said

"True enough, still" Mario said

"Hmm, is something wrong, Mario sir" Rath asked

"No, its just that…seeing my little nephew rise out of the ashes of tragedy to being a man that his father and my sister would be so PROUD of…it makes me" Mario was about to say

"Prouder than a peacock" Ja-Kal asked

"Exactly" Mario replied

"The kids grow fast, no" Dimitri asked

"They certainly do" Ja-Kal replied meanwhile Panda King was playing Mahjong with his son in-law

"It was quite a lovely service, sir" Wong said

"Yes, it was, and it was an honor to play my part in the ceremony" Panda King replied in a tone of voice that told Wong something was…off with his father in-law

"Is something wrong sir" Wong asked

"No just…deep in thought I guess" Panda King answered

"About" Wong asked

"I know he and everyone have forgiven me for what I have done…but…I still wish I could say that to Sly's parents myself" Panda King answered

"I see, you shouldn't continuously hammer yourself down with this" Wong replied

"Harder to do than to say" Panda King replied

"If I may be blunt with you sir" Wong said

"Please" Panda King replied

"You paid your deat and you've already gotten the forgiveness of their son and their now daughter in-law, not to mention Sly's uncle…your heart has been burdened enough, time to stop kicking yourself in the ass and move on…sir" Wong advised

"Hmm…perhaps you are right, though…I feel like it will take some time before I finally forgive myself" Panda King replied

"I know, it takes time for such deep scars to heal, but they will fade eventually" Wong replied, Panda King smiled a little

"Your wise for someone of your young years, my son…thank you" Panda King said

"For my family, anything" Wong answered, meanwhile Zak, Hanzo and Genji were gaming with each other whilst Guru, Murray and Armon were chowing down on a bunch of food that they ordered earlier

"AAAAAAAAAAAH, now this is living, you guys sure know how to throw a party" Armon said

"We know how to party as well as we know how to kick ass" Genji said

"Yep" Hanzo added

"Who knew that Neyla would be marrying someone who can afford a private wedding and the sweetest room in Paris's oldest church and its most expensive hotel, Neyla's new hubby is LOADED" Armon said

"Monetary possessions are merely temporary but the things they can buy are rather nice" Guru said

"Especially when Sly is picking up the tab for everything we order" Genji said

"Well, what's the point of having so much money if you don't SPEND any of it" Genji asked

"MMMMM, you know what this chicken leg could use" Armon asked

"What's that" Murray asked

"Some CHOCOLATE sauce" Armon said

"OOOH YEAH, you're talking MY LANGUAGE" Murray said

"Chocolate sauce" Genji asked

"On a CHICKEN leg" Hanzo asked

"YUCK" Both Hanzo and Genji said at once

"Don't let your guard down boys, your FALLEN behind" Zak said as the three played a round of Sonic riders

"Oh no we're NOT" Genji said as he and Hanzo kept pace with Zak

"Are those two always so competitive" Armon asked Murray and Guru

"Zak's been undefeated in those racing games for a LONG while now and Genji and Hanzo…well, they're looking to take him down a peg or two" Murray replied

"Competition…it'll get you every time" Guru said, meanwhile Carmelita, Shazza, Aria, Helen, Cammy who was GLAD to get out of the dress she was forced into was currently soaking in the large hot tub upstairs alongside Jasmine, Aria, Helen, Cammy, Shazza, Jing King, Lucy and Gwen, however since they didn't bring any swimwear, they went swimming in the nude, good thing there was a covering over the pool area to keep peepers eyes away and the guys were gentlemen enough to not look in they're direction…otherwise, Shazza, Helen and Carmelita would kick their asses

"MMMM, I've always wondered what it would be like to stay in a hotel THIS fancy" Carmelita said

"I can't even remember the last time I've been so relaxed" Shazza added

"You can say that again sister" Nefer-Tina added

"No hot tubs in Australia, I take it" Gwen asked Shazza

"Not unless you found them boiling like lava" Shazza replied

"Definitely NOT a travel destination on my bucket list" Nefer-Tina said

"Though, should we TRULY trust the men to keep their word about not peeping at us…especially with Dimitri in there" Helen asked

"Don't worry, with the other, much more gentlemanly men in there, he'll be reduced to a pair of lizard-skin boots if he tried" Cammy said

"You're referring to your boyfriend" Carmelita asked

"And Nick of course" Cammy replied

"And my brother, don't forget about him" Lucy added

"Yep" Carmelita said

"If I'm not mistaken…we seem to be missing not one but TWO girls in this little group" Jing King said, they soon noticed Trixie wasn't there enjoying the soak with them

"Yeah and I've noticed that T'Challa isn't around either" Jasmine added, the other girls then looked at each other

"They…couldn't be…could they" Penelope asked

"If I were them" Aria was about to say

"YES" Helen and Shazza said at the same time

(In another part of the hotel with T'Challa and Trixie)

The thing that the other girls were thinking that both T'Challa and Trixie were doing with each other…was right as T'Challa SLAMMED Trixie's back to the wall as the two of them viciously made out with each other, both saw each other in their snazzy, tux and dress and they couldn't resist each other…after all, this is often what other people do when they're guests at weddings, secretly sneak away to make out…and sleep with each other, they managed to find an unoccupied part of the hotel and T'Challa secretly booked it for him and Trixie to spend the night together

"You know…this is a REALLY bad idea" T'Challa said

"Then why do I feel your "sword" pocking me in the stomach right now" Trixie asked before she took off her shirt revealing her black bra

"You know what it's my master's wedding night…fuck it" T'Challa said before they started making out again, it wasn't long before their clothes both wedding and undergarments were scattered on the floor and the sounds of muffled moaning was coming out of their room, needless to say it was a WILD night for the both of em

(Meanwhile in Hawaii) (Sorry, no lemons in the first chapter for THIS one)

Sly and Neyla, now Mister and Misses Cooper had a GREAT time in Hawaii, Sly took Neyla dancing, to fancy dinner and enjoyed a nice, soothing couples massage, now they enjoyed a nice, quiet evening as the two laid in their hotel bed in their undergarment whilst watching one of their favorite movies "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead men tell no tales"

"MMMM, I can't think of a more PERFECT honeymoon" Neyla said

"Me neither…Misses Cooper" Sly replied

"OOOOH…say it again" Neyla said as she shivered

"Misses Cooper" Sly repeated himself

"MMMMM, I LOVE the sound of that" Neyla said as she snuggled closer to her husband

"As you should…I still can't believe that it's FINALLY happened, you and me…together forever" Sly said as he looked at his wedding ring

"BELIEVE it tiger" Neyla said as she suddenly got on top of her husband, staggering his hips between her legs

"Your stuck with me…forever" Neyla told him

"Oh, I'm MORE than ready to live with that" Sly replied

"Good…because I got a VERY special wedding gift for you" Neyla told her husband as they now looked face to face with each other, mere inches from touching each other's noses

"Oh…and what is THAT, my queen" Sly asked Neyla then removed her bra

"Hmm…I like what I see already" Sly said

"If you like that" Neyla said before she turned off the light on the nearby nightstand

"Then your gonna LOVE this" Neyla said seductively

"You sure you want this, especially since you're carrying" Sly asked

"I know, but this is what people DO on honeymoons, besides…I know you'll be gentle" Neyla said, Sly couldn't help but chuckle before he swapped spots with his wife and now she was on the bottom whilst he was over her

"Then allow me to treat you like the princess you are" Sly said before the two of them went to making love, not as hard as they USED to but more lovingly, just happy to be in each other's arms and finally together forever, both them and their kid or kids would be together forever…and if someone were to try and take that away from Sly…God have MERCY on them, but he didn't know that moment would come so soon

(The next day, Back in Paris)

As the morning sun was rising over Paris, it was a beautiful morning, soon enough Trixie was waking up from her sleep and she felt very comfortable, soon enough she heard someone walking into the room she was in, she then grabbed her gun from the nightstand and shot up from her laying position and pointed it at whoever came in

"WHOA, WHOA, EASY" The voice of T'Challa called out as Trixie saw T'Challa with a drink carrier with two cups of coffee and a takeout bag

"I…brought us breakfast" T'Challa said

"T'Challa…sweet mother of HELL, you nearly gave me a heart attack" Trixie said, she then noticed he was staring at her

"Whoa" T'Challa muttered, looking at her breasts, Trixie then looked to see she was still naked

"You look even more beautiful in the morning" T'Challa said, Trixie then put her gun back on the nightstand

"You gonna just stand there looking at my breasts all morning or you gonna give me my coffee" Trixie asked

"Well, the former is WAY more attractive" T'Challa said, Trixie then pointed her gun at T'Challa

"Okay, okay, chill" T'Challa said before he walked over to the bed where they had their wild night and sat across from Trixie handing her, her coffee

"Thanks" Trixie said before sipping her coffee

"MMMMM, just what the doctor ordered" Trixie said

"Not to mention a hot egg, cheese and steak biscuit and hashbrown" T'Challa said

"You know it" Trixie replied before they started eating

"So…that was a pretty wild night last night, wasn't it" Trixie asked

"Wild doesn't even describe it" T'Challa replied

"Then…how WOULD you describe it" Trixie asked

"Well…it was without a doubt the BEST feeling I've EVER had I've NEVER been so close to a woman before" T'Challa said

"Wait, so you're telling me that before last night…you were" Trixie was about to say

"Virgin…yeah…I know, sounds funny" T'Challa said

"No…I actually think it's cute" Trixie said as she ruffled T'Challa's hair with her left hand

"And what about you miss badass, I bet you've had plenty of" T'Challa was about to say before Trixie shoved his breakfast biscuit in his mouth

"Don't even FINISH that sentence, despite me being one of them I would sooner drink ACID than roll around in the BED with one of them, I would be SMELLING of rancid breath for WEEKS after words" Trixie said

"MMM, yeah, forget I ever brought it up" T'Challa said after pulling the biscuit out of his mouth

"Already have, but to answer your question…I was one to…before last night" Trixie said

"Well, this is a fine kettle of fish, we were both each other's first times…you know something…I don't regret what we did" T'Challa said

"Even after you said it was a bad idea to start with" Trixie asked, T'Challa then scooted forward, closer to Trixie before he kissed her on the lips, her eyes widened a little before she relaxed

"I regret nothing with you…my battle angel" T'Challa told her, she blushed

"Battle angel" Trixie asked

"What you don't like it" T'Challa asked, Trixie thought about it

"No…I actually like it…Ronin" Trixie said

"Ronin" T'Challa asked

"What, I can't give a nickname to you, but you can give one to me" Trixie asked, T'Challa chuckled

"Of course, you can, I love it" T'Challa replied before they continued eating breakfast

"You know…we should do this again…that is, if your up for it" T'Challa said

"I would like that, it was really nice, but…what are we gonna tell the others" Trixie asked

"Well, I suppose we'll eventually have to tell em that we're "official" now" T'Challa answered

"Oh boy, the other girls are NEVER gonna let me live this down" Trixie replied

"Zak, Genji and Hanzo aren't gonna let me live it down either" T'Challa added

"You know, I can't help but feel like…we've missed something" Trixie said

"You ain't the only one" T'Challa said, after they thought about it for a few seconds it suddenly dawned on them, and both SWORE they could hear the sound of a record scratching in their heads as both spat out their food or drink before looking at each other at the sudden realization

"OH SHIT…I/YOU FORGOT TO PUT ON A CONDOM" T'Challa and Trixie said at once

Oh, SHIT is right (Like Duke Nukem says in his game "Wrap it before you tap it" and do that in real life guys if you ain't ready to be parents yet and make sure they're strong so they don't…break when you're doing your thing)

Well, that'll do it for the first chapter of "Cooper's creed 4 Bonds across time"

I wanted the first chapter to be more focused on Sly and Neyla's wedding along with a little down time…you know, the calm before the storm as for the new characters I presented, I have a plan here for the as many would call them "The weakest villains in the Sly Cooper series"

For what I have planed for these new villains…you'll be surprised

As for now, I appreciate your patience whilst I make my stories

Until the next time my brothers and sisters in fiction, I hope you guys will stay safe out there

NINJA VANISH!
