Sly Cooper: Thick as Thieves

Building Steam

(Sly's POV)It didn't feel right!

After I left Mika, I felt unsure. Almost like my heart was yelled at me to head back. But my gut shook and twist in fear if I turned around. I wanted to know! I needed to know! She become a mystery, a mission to figure out. This feeling twisted up and down my body, My toes began to curl. "What am I doing? I have to fix what went wrong with Carmelita, she's my wife...."
I was half way to the van when, I felt the urge to check on Carmelita. "I should, make sure she is alright you never know. Right!? What's the harm?!" I swiftly turned my self into the direction of my home. A mixture of excitement, fear, and guilt settled in a mix pot at the bottom of my soul. Chills ran up my spine, something wasn't right.

Two wrongs don't make a right...

I reached my home, grasped for the keys. When I made an adept to unlock the door I realized it was already open. I started to question creating an alert feeling. I slowly made my way into the door, it was quite.
My ears twitched around to find any sign of my wife. When my ears faced the stairway, I heard noises! I tried to examine what the noises were exactly, as I crept closer toward the stairs. When then my eyes widened and my ears perked, I realized what was going on. Angered, No in raged with the idea. I knew deep down I was being hypocritical, But I didn't go that far.
I reached the bed room door. I was Hesitant to open it, but that urge was so strong I busted threw the door! Fur stood straight up, my fangs were bared as I yelled "CARMELITE! WHAT THE FUCK!" I was ready to leap across the room when the sheets flew up as if the wind took off with them. Her face was unforgettable, she was in such shock her face turned red. I lept across the room grabbing the scumbag, shuffling him into the wall. As my eye sight cleared up from rage, I noticed the man. "DIMITRI!!?..." I should have known, I wasn't the only thief that she'd chased. As I rapped my claws around his slimy, scaly neck Carmelite rang out.
"SLY YOU...YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE HERE! I SHOULD HAVE YOU LOCKED UP FOR THIS!" Her voice shook and shivered. I can smell the fear wafting off them, not to mention other unpleasant scents. Still holding Dimitri, I turned my attention to...to my wife. "Don't you say a word...I have every right to be in MY house! As for this little bitch!" I started to grip tighter and tighter, "This lizard is going from purple to blue if it's the last thing I do!" I had to calm down, I was gonna kill the man, well the little prick. I finely dropped the dirt ball. Watched him gasp for air, as he laid on the floor. I glared at him long and hard, until my eye contact was broken my Carmelite as she swooped in on him. Looming over Dimitri, she repeatedly asked him if he was not okay. I couldn't believe my eyes! "After everything I gave up, after losing myself, AFTER DEALING WITH YOUR ABUSE!...the one night I have to my self....you go nuts...I made a mistake. I owned up to it! BUT YOU CUDDLE UP WITH IT AND NERSE IT?!" I didn't understand, I-I just couldn't comprehend the idea! Maybe I shouldn't have been angry. But this crossed way too many lines! "YEA SLY IM NURSING IT, MAYBE IF YOU GAVE SOMETHING TO NURSE, THIS! WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED!? You think of that?!" She screeched and cried out to me. My jaw dropped, how could she hold that! THAT of all things against me? I shook my head in disbelief, it was all my fault. I created this mess! I hung my head in shame "I apologize for the in convenience of my own body! But that has nothing to do with what's going on here! You got mad at me for earlier, that's fine and dandy! But revenge for a meaningless drunken dance?!" I really didn't mean to say that. it deep down, really did mean something. But I wasn't about to let her win. "Then ACUSE me of something I didn't do! You had the heart to go all out! I hope you can live with that..." I started to walked away leaving the conniving duo to their own. I decided to try and have the last word "maybe...just...maybe you get you're wish with him!" As I slammed the door, I heard Carmelita yell out "Well fine then, at least he don't shoot blanks!" I laughed, thinking of what those babies would look like "ha yea go spawn some fugly mutants! Have fun with that!" I chuckled as she grew silent, at least I kind of made light of things.
I returned back to the van and sat inside. I took a glance at the old photos. Scanning over the wall, I saw the photos of Carmelita and I. Ready to burst into tears I ripped them clean of the wall. The trash was not good enough, I wanted to burn them! Curled up on the cold floor, I pondered about Mika. Was she okay? What was she up to? Was I missing her? Without a second thought I grabbed my things a rushed back to her house! On the way there I played out in my mind how'd she'd great

(Mika's POV)Blushing all shades of red!

I was so sore after all that excitement! I made up my mind and jumped into the tub. "Well a nice bubble bath should calm my nerves...maybe..." I ran the water and poured the soap. As I sat and waited for the tub to fill I randomly grabbed my purse and went threw it. Looking down into the bag of doom I found Sly's number, I started to smile. After some shifting I found a photo, it was so old and cracked. "Where the hell did this come from?" I was so puzzled, I know I have stuffed some weird shit in my purse before but I have never seen this in my life. As I unfolded the photo I notice children standing I front of and old building. Once the photo was half opened I noticed three familiar faces. Was it really?! "Is...is that Sly, Bentley, and Murray?" It was, but started to look long and hard at the photo. My memory started to put the pieces back together slowly. I looked long and hard At building, It was so old I could barely make it out. Then the light bulb got a night brighter. "That's the old orphanage I use to belong to! So does that mean..." Before I could have finished. the other half of it fell off the photo, like it was ripped off. Picking it up, I notice a little raccoon part Marbled fox girl making faces at the camera."is...that...could it be...." I was stunned, that little girl was "ME!" I dropped that photo. "No...no it can't be!" I flipped the photo over after picking it up and placing the pieces together. Back of it wrote.."they will all soon forget!" What the hell was this about? Shaking my head I lowered my self in the tub still holding the picture. Did we already know each other? That does explain why we look familiar!
