Considering this is your AU of Sly 1, he wouldn't really fit into the plot. However, there can be a spin-off based on my arc where Sly and Ray learn about each other. They can have a foolish sibling, responsible sibling dynamic in which Ray--despite being a few minutes younger than Sly--is the responsible twin and Sly is the foolish one.
Ray will also remain a cop working black-ops duty during his time with the American feds, but I had an idea he would become a Robin Hood when off the clock if he were added to your story.
Yeah. With the rich being corrupt aristocrats, politicians, and law enforcement officers who pillage the funding of government organizations, charities, and hospitals designed to help the poor and needy. Ray would be an anonymous thief committing the acts, so he will mainly move at night.
His mystery heists will be all over the news, to the point it will catch the Cooper Gang's attention. Carmelita is now a new member after getting fired from Interpol, and she too is curious about the new thief.
The information he hears has him curious and the feats this new thief is pulling off impresses him. Whoever this new guy or girl is has balls or nerves of steel to be robbing the government itself.
And that's when the whole gang becomes baffled at the sound of the news reporting every sick or less fortunate person in America experiencing a sudden boost in income and medical funding. That can't be a coincidence.
And that's when Bentley muses aloud that whoever is taking it a step further and going this big must have some knowledge of how America's system works, otherwise the country's economy can risk falling apart at the seams.
The snarky remark has a couple glares aimed at him from the Guru and Penelope, but he ignores them and continues watching the news. As the broadcast wraps up, the news anchor calls the new thief "Robin", which is obviously short for Robin Hood, the thief from the famed children's fairytale.
Penelope also speaks up about how she's read that story too and she finds it a little touching how the mystery thief seems to be following what Robin did in the original book.
And of course, Sly gets a flirtatious look on his face and is about to say something lecherous when Bentley, already knowing what's coming, tells them to get a room...and don't be so loud this time!
Cue the questions. Murray asks where will they look if they start investigating. And Bentley answers they will obviously start in the U.S. of course, since this is where Robin is pinpointed at.
Then the Panda King asks if they should really be investigating him. Everything he is doing is for the people and it is not affecting their operations.
Bentley answers honestly and says if it were up to him, he would leave Robin alone since what he's doing is with good intentions. However, they all know how Sly is. Now that he's got an eye on this thief, he won't stop until he finds out their identity, if only to size up a potential rival just in case he's a threat.
Penelope also adds her input and says they could accidentally turn Robin into their enemy if they meddle too much in his business or approach his turf the wrong way.
The Panda King tells Bentley to consider his choices wisely for they could be putting themselves and their resources at risk if they choose to pursue Robin.
Unlike Sly, who has a harder time listening to other people, Bentley is considering the Panda King's words as he types on his laptop. He says he'll save some notes for now, but if Sly starts pushing for them to investigate, there's nothing he can really do.
Penelope gags, the Panda King chants a Buddhist prayer, Murray goes outside to get a snack with the Guru joining him, Dimitri puts his earbuds on to block out the noise, and Bentley decides to head outside to the library.
If he's going to have any luck tracking Robin, then the first thing he needs to do is look up the source material, which is the original Robin Hood book, along with any modern retellings of the story.
Bentley looks at her in surprise, wondering when she followed him outside, but she waves it off and says she'll explain later. Right now, being anywhere else is better than at the safe house right now.
The couple is unaware the hideout is quiet and half empty as they have sex with each other like their lives depend on it. Sly is growling and hissing in pleasure with each thrust he drives into Carmelita who's grunting and moaning beneath him.
She also starts calling him "Baby" again and even squeezes her breasts to make more milk come out and squirter into his mouth. Sly's tail starts wagging like a dog's on top of her.
And Sly hasn't stopped to catch his breath once. His friends meanwhile are continuing to do their own things while he's busying himself expelling energy--both physically and sexually--with Carmelita.
So he prepares to deal with the raccoon like a stern father would a rebellious child and steps back into the safehouse. He doesn't bother knocking as he pries the door open to Sly's room, walks over to the bed, grabs Sly by the scruff of his neck and literally pull him off Carmelita.
She may be a fox, but even her strength can't compare to that of a panda bear's so she wisely chose to comply to the Panda King's silent command. Meanwhile, Sly is struggling in his grip and he yowls at Panda King to let him go. His claws are even out as he rakes them on the bear's wrist, trying to force him to let go.
His grip doesn't relent as he keeps Sly dangling off the floor with one arm, still holding on to his scruff. He chastens Sly and tells him to quiet down. The time for his little dates with the vixen have long since expired and he's running everyone thin of patience, especially Bentley--who has been working hard to keep their team in order.
And to that, the Panda King retorts he does when Sly's personal desires are interfering with the feelings and priorities of his friends. For weeks now, everyone has been trying to help him plan for the Kaine Island heist to get him into his family's ancient treasure vault. For weeks, they have put aside their own needs, their own wants, and their own time to get better gear, brainstorm ideas, and get access to better resources needed for this big job. A few of them--primarily Bentley--have even lost sleep using their energy to work on all of it, and not once he has ever thanked them or even considered the state of their well-being through the process. Not once he has he bothered to listen to anything they have to say. All any of them want is for him to pay attention but he never does. Instead he's been rewarding them by throwing all their help back in their faces through Carmelita
And to that, Panda King tells him if he really means it, then he needs to stop being selfish and use the head on his shoulders more. Focus more on important priorities that will help him get his house in order, instead of thinking with just his hormones.
Much to his surprise, the Panda actually answers and says he's become like a son to him, and he's talking to him like this because he doesn't want him to fall into a pit with nothing to show for himself.
Then Carmelita comes over and helps Sly, to which he says that after this last session, they will put it off for a good while until they get the Cooper Vault.
It took him a good minute to figure it out, but now he understands what the Panda King means. Without another word, he retrieves some fresh clothes from his room and goes to take a shower.
The same is true for her as well as she also takes a good bath, this time deciding to put on more modest clothes once she's clean and dry. Carmelita also changed the bedsheets and cleaned up Sly's room to spare the gang from the smell of their earlier lovemaking.
And now with them focused, they are now motivated to help Bentley with their newfound side project while working on the Cooper Vault heist: The discovery of Robin. Who is this new thief and could he or she possibly help them?
So they proceed to listen. Sly and Carmelita may not have completely done away with their open relationship, but they were now more focused than ever. And it took one of Sly's (formerly) most hated enemies to set him straight.
Which is the reason he just snapped him out of his lovesickness with Carmelita. Basically his formal speech to Sly was his style of saying "Get your sh*t together, man!"
And if Ray does enter the picture, I wonder how Bentley will figure out what state he's in as Robin?
The Panda King and Sly started off as enemies and the latter wanted the former dead, but it was due to Jing King that he is still alive and he left alive since she got in his way.
Not sure. Maybe California? New York? Any place with rich people, really.
I was thinking Florida. It's a good state where more than a few aristocrats and politicians have vacation homes or even homes they rent. Plus Florida is like the tenth richest state on U.S. soil.
As Robin, Ray has his own version of the Cooper Gang: His childhood friends Maya and Tahj, Leila--his girlfriend, and two former military dogfighting cats who man a jet.
Yep, them. I gave Ray a motorcycle. Sly's gang has a van. Why not a jet for Ray's gang? They have a ground vehicle too but they use the jet for aerial based escapades.
