It was a beautiful night in vale city. One of four capital cities on remnant. It was 4:20am in the morning as a shadowy figure is seen running across the rooftops; leaping from one to another. Landing on one rooftop and continue his run until he saw a chimney in his way. Without stopping, the figure whip out a cane; a brown staff but with a golden sharp curve hook at the end of it, which made the whole cane look like a question mark. And smash through the chimney jump off the ledge, like a ninja of the night. He landed on a small platform on the side of a building. Stepping into the light, the unknown figure was actually the famous gentleman thief, sly cooper. The raccoon beastkin's fur was dark grey. He wears a blue elbow long-sleeve shirt with a yellow collar, a blue cap, he also had on grey pant, wearing entirely yellow gloves and silk black boots. On his face was a black domino mask, while on his back was an red backpack. Sly proceeds to sneak along the ledge until reaching the corner, he looked behind the corner and saw his intended target, the vale city police headquarters. Sly manage to leap across and landed first on the VCPHQ light sign, then leap and landed again on PHQ's roof.

Bentley: "sly! Come in! Sly! Do you read me?"

Sly: "yeah. I read you. Loud and...very loud."

Bentley: "sorry. I'm a little nervous. Trying to break into police headquarters does that."

Sly: "get over it, bentley. You're the one safe in the van. I'm the thief here – i've got to steal that file from inspector camrelita fox."

Bentley: "well, count on me to be your eyes and ears, buddy. Got their security system totally scoped. To get inside, you're gonna have to go through that air vent."

Sly: "alright, i'm going in."

then a pink hippo, wearing a blue t-shirt, a white scarf around his neck, and driving goggles, Appear on the side screen.

Murray: "and don't forget you've got me on the wheel, sly. All you got to do is grad the file and get back to the van. We'll do the rest."

Sly: "just keep the engine running, murray. I'll be down in no time."

As soon as that was done, sly put away his Binocucom, hop off the tall platform and proceed to the small water tower. As he approach towards it he then spotted something, on the rims of the tower was blue sparkling lights. Trying to process what he was seeing he then decided to contact bentley.

Sly: "hey bentley, i think i'm seeing things. must be vertigo or something. Can you see those crazy blue lights?

Bentley: "really? i've read about this. master raccoon thieves are able to sense thieving opportunities which manifest themselves as unexplained blue auras. according to my research, all you have to do is get near them and you should be able to perform a super sneaky master thief moves."

Sly: "got it, thanks bentley."

Walking up to the edge, sly starts to sneak along the rim of the water tower until he got to the other side. And then using two large roof antenna he jump across and landed on the spot where the air vent was. Breaking off the cover, sly then proceed inside until he was in the elevator shaft. Looking down, the raccoon thief saw a dozen of yellow laser beams crisscrossed down below,

Bentley: " be extra careful here, sly. Break one of those laser beams and you'll set off the alarms – not to mention you'll be fried to a crisp."

Bentley reply via the comm-links. With this in mind, sly leap down to one platform to the next, carefully avoiding the lasers in the process. He landed on the roof of the elevator and then smashed the siren to deactivate the lasers beams as well as opening the elevator doors. Now roaming police HQ's hallways.

Bentley: "nice job. you're in. inspector camrelita fox's office is behind the red door."

Sly stalks the halls until find the door he be looking for. He tested it to see if he open it but it was not only lock but also not bust.

Bentley: "that door must be super reinforced, sly. Maybe there's a way to get around it."

Sly looked toward the window and open it, and saw more stealth aura along ledge, he went outside to then sneak along the ledge till reaching the window for camrelita's office. Now inside the office, sly spotted the safe in the corner and get on his knee just as bentley pop in via the comm-links.

Bentley: "way to go, sly. This is where inspector camrelita fox stashes all her important files. 1 hacked into the police security mainframe and discovered this vault combo. Try dialing in 9-3-7."

Sly input the code, and with his cane turn the handle, as it spins till it stop and the door opens sly reach out and take the file he be looking for; his own police case file.

Murray: "nice job - you get it! If you come down through the fire escape and head through the parking lot, we'll be waiting in the getaway van."

Sly put the file in his backpack and then take out his calling card and place it inside the vault, As Sly prepared to make his way down through the fire escape, he was caught red-handed by Carmelita, who leaped onto a nearby rooftop. The fox had on an open yellow jacket with a blue bra, on her neck she ware a black necklace with the golden police badge symbol, yellow gloves, blue jean pants, and brown combat boots that reach up to her knees. In her hands is a high-tech red and yellow shock gun courtesy of interpol.
