//------------------------------// // Straight to the Top // Story: Equestria Ninja Girls: The Thievius Raccoonus // by RainbowRaptorDash1 //------------------------------// As Carmelita spoke with the spirit, Sly and the Beauty Trio were tracking the last Treasure Key. "Alright, here we go!" Sly said. "Let’s do this!" Rarity agreed as she, Sly, Karai and Adagio went into the next around and steered clear of the guard dog, before making it to a window that had a treasure key in it. "The key’s under there!" Karai informed as Rarity tried to use her Diamond Shields like buzzsaws to cut through, only to not even make a scratch. "Not good." Rarity noticed. "Forget it guys. You’ll need something super-heavy, like that big wrecking ball up there." Bentley informed. "That can work. And we get a bit of workout along the way. Right, Adagio?" Karai asked as she poked Adagio's belly. "Still on about me and the chili dogs?" Adagio responded. "No, you look fine, Dagi. Like a watermelon." Sly teased as Adagio was unfazed by that. "Watermelon? Ha! That’s nothing." Adagio quipped with a laugh, catching Sly, Rarity and Karai completely off guard before the three snapped themselves out of it as Sly spotted the specific amount of guards with his Binoc-U-com. "Twelve guards, no way to sneak around, and no venom grenades. Like this will be hard." Sly informed. The guards were minding their own business when Karai wrapped around one. "Gotcha!" Karai quipped as two thugs rushed to help, only for Rarity and Adagio to perform the X-Strike move. "Hey boys, care to guess who's who?" Sly asked. "Huh?" Another thug asked as he looked and saw two Sly Coopers, before smashing the wrong one. "You lose... consciousness." Sly quipped as he swung the spear end his cane hard, knocking the thug out cold. "Come on, lose consciousness!" Karai hissed as the thug coiled up by he lost consciousness and Karai lunged at another. "And you’re next!" "Hey, what's going on over there?!" A thug asked. "HELP!" Another thug yelled before he lost consciousness as two thugs went to investigate and found seven Karais. "Can you find out who’s me?" The Karais mocked as the thugs remained confused until Karai spat her venom at their eyes. "My eyes!" The thugs screamed as Karai drew her sword and went to town on them, leaving them knocked out. "That's seven." Karai counted. "Who wants to play?" Sly asked as he drew his sais before a thug charged at Sly, but he didn't even flinch. "What the?!" The thug asked before he fell unconscious as the real Sly stood behind him after doing a neck chop. "I am seriously good looking."Sly quipped as thug number 9 charged at him, but Rarity intercepted. "I don’t think so." Rarity tsked before she gave a kick right between the thug's legs. "Momma…" The thug whimpered in a high-pitched tone before he fell down with his hands and tail between his legs. "What are you idiots doing?!" Muggshot's voice roared. "Boss, we got..." The thug started to say, but was interrupted. "Never mind that! The cop is in the casino." Muggshot shouted. "Yes, sir!" The thug responded as he and the last two conscious thugs ran off, not knowing Adagio tricked them. "The bigger the muscles, the smaller the brain." Adagio quipped in Muggshot's voice. "Now THAT is golden!" Sly agreed. "Got the code?" Adagio asked in Muggshot's voice. "Yep." Sly answered. "You’d need an IQ of at least 140 to figure this one out. Dial in 4-6-8." Bentley informed as Sly inputted the code and opened the vault before grabbing the page in it. "Who's the next ancestor?" Karai asked. "Actually, you found the blueprints for Muggshot’s additions to Mesa City. With these files, I’ll be able to help you find all of his goods, in case you wanna steal them." Bentley explained. "No book pages?" Karai added. "I’m afraid not." Bentley answered. "That would've been nice to have an hour ago." Adagio responded in Muggshot's voice. "At least we’ll do some looting after lunch." Sly said. "And we're getting close to Muggshot." Rarity noted. "Yeah. Because this is the last treasure key." Karai agreed as the group broke the glass with the wrecking ball and grabbed the key. "Next stop, Muggshot." Adagio declared. "Which means our next stop is the elevator." Sly agreed. "Let's get going." Karai said. "Here here." Rarity agreed as she, Sly, Karai and Adagio started heading back to unlock the lever to open the elevator.
