Two raccoon brothers walked along the path, clearly getting cold looks from other residents but they don't care. "Come on, Lifty!" The one with the hat called out to their younger brother and Lifty groaned, "As long there's a nearby cafe then I'm stopping for a break." Shifty sighed while holding the bridge of his snout, "Fine fine." He went to take his wallet out but they felt someone was trying to take it, as someone who is a kleptomaniac as an orphaned child, they knew his opponents' attempts. He quickly turned around and grabbed their wrist tightly, he caught the glimpse of their failed pickpocket thief; it's a female purple raccoon with short spiky hair at the back of her head, a checkered red with white lines collared shirt, skinny jeans that has rips on the knee area, military looking boots and she's quite short compared to the twins. "Why are you trying to steal my wallet..?" Shifty asked in a cold voice and the female quiver anxiously, "Hey Shift, think you should let her go. She's shaking like a leaf-" The older twin sighed then let her go, "Listen, if you wanna pickpocket without getting caught; don't be slow." He gave her some money and she took it.
When the twins are about to go, she suddenly follow them. Lifty noticed, "Hey, why are you following us? Go home." She stopped and fiddled with the money, "I...I h-have nowhere t-t-to go..I just c-came from S-S-Scotland to g-get a-a-a job here but, t-that obviously w-w-won't happen..h-heh." The brothers looked at each other, they also don't have a job or a tower of money. They're thieves who just pickpocket or steal goods from people. Plus, their lifestyle is kinda poor.
"Well, you can stay with us." The younger twin spoke first and Shifty looked at him, "But our landlord won't be happy to see..a stranger in her apartment block." Lifty shakes his head, "We'll just ask if it's okay or not. Also, it's the only block that can accept us poor raccoons." The raccoon in fedora sighed and nodded then looked at the female, "What's your name?" She's still fiddled with the money in paw, "Dana. M-My name's D-Dana."
The raccoons stole a cow, again for the fifth time. Lumpy chased after them, "Hey, get back with my cow!!" They finally reached their hot-air balloon and dumped the cow into it before getting in. The purple one pulled the rope that is attached to the hook and they set off, Lumpy cursed under his breathe and noticed that the rope is gradually getting off the ground and tried to get it. That was the part where he died, again. The raccoons laughed while the female mocked over his dead body, no obstacles are ahead so they landed their transportation on the ground with no problems and tried to carry the cow out.
They went to the butcher shop while guiding the cow there and waited on the round table. "Shift, I'm bored now." Lifty tugged his brother's sleeve while giving a bored expression, "Already? Jeez, you always get bored easily." Lifty shrugged then noticed Dana struggling not to sleep, she must have been tired after stealing the cow adventure, even though they don't even walked the whole way. He patted her head and let her sleep on his shoulder for a while and Shifty took out their fedora then ruffled his own fur hair and redo his low ponytail, it's quite messy in their opinion. Lifty is the only one with well-mannered hair because he silk it back with hair lotion, Dana on the other hand, has poof hair and she rarely ties it.
Their order arrived and Dana paid to the cashier with cash and the raccoons walked out to eat at their poor yet homey apartment.
