There is also an audio drama of the first chapter by the wonderful CMC13: The audio drama is right here.
Featured on Fimfiction's main page on 6/13/2015 and 6/26/2015!
Also, this story is old. The early chapters are very low quality! You have been warned!!!
This looks so much like a Sly Raccoon Parody.
5598409 I've never played a Sly Racoon game, I know about them but have never played one.
So the plot thickens.

Is that like a soup reference?
5603015 Chicks man.
I'm trying to remember the terms used for each job. I know Rarity would be called "The Face".
I just started to read this and damn, Trixie a detective or law enforcement? I love that idea! So you kind of go ta forty thieves vs Commissioner Gordon thing going here? I like it. I must know, is Trixie a good or crooked cop? If she's a cop at all.
This is going to go horribly wrong. I can feel it.
Oh shit rival thieves! I like your teams for the groups. I think Trixie needs more time in screen so to speak.
5607356 I agree. Trixie has been hard to write because I don't want to write her too much in because if I write her in too much, she'll catch the Rainbooms too quickly. I plan to have Trixie eventually get to them at some point but not yet.
I wonder if trixie hunts each one of them down like in oceans 12 could be in one of the next chapters
5611158 I've never watched oceans 12, sorry.

Eh it happens
Though I would recommend it for a good heist movie along with the rest of the Johnny Ocean trilogy

*dramatic Pinkie gasp*
You NEED to play the Sly Cooper games, or at the very least watch playthroughs on YouTube. IMHO it's one of the best video game series out there. I originally bought my PS2 just to play those games.
Actually, I'm surprised you haven't played any of them, considering how many similarities there are in this story:
Throughout their VERY long history, the Cooper Clan only steals from other criminals. (Well, almost only. At the beginning of the first game, you break into Police HQ to steal Sly Cooper's police file, which contains information on the Fiendish Five, the criminal group who killed Sly's parents and are the antagonists throughout the first game.)
The majority of the heists result in the criminal they steal from getting arrested.
Sly's arch-nemesis (as well as love interest) is Interpol's Inspector Carmelita Fox.
Hold on.
*Drinks water then spits it out*
WHA?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

This is what you needed

5614348 I've watched some of the Cooper games. This idea for the story actually came from the very recent Persona 5 gameplay trailer where the main characters play as Phantom Thieves. Phantom Thieves are a very old style of thief/heist writing. That and when I watched the trailer this story just popped in my head.
5614348 i agree with you and i must say that sly 1, 2, 3 and thieves in time are one of the best games i have ever played
This story definitely needs some cover art.
5642564 I wish but I'm no artist. If someone could get me something I would gladly accept it.
google it
5643093 Well, I didn't find anything I believe fits the story. It's fine.
5643131

I have bad experience with alternate world stories ,but my friend said this one was good and to read it.
5650508 Oh, well thank you for liking the story.
BURN HER. BURN THE FUCKING WITCH DIAMOND TIARA.
5651727 Ya know, witches weren't usually burned at the stake...
But we'll make an exception!
Rainbow Dash the pirate.
Man, I love this story! Keep them chapters comin'!
On your story, you used 9 'Trixie's. 10 With the author's note.
5654865 I don't understand the comment. Is that bad I used Trixie?
You write really fast.
5655948 If I get an idea I try to write it out as fast as I can. I don't want to lose the idea.
Re: Diamond Tiara
Like father like daughter.

Re: the trixie 3rd person thing
This may be a little much but shouldn't trixie's strangeness be linked to a strength and not her being strange.
Just a thought
5657683 I just write her that way, that's all.
Again, not a pirate.
I absolutely love this story!
is it just me or is Rumble the little brother of Thunderlane, as in a colt not a filly
5680039 Yeah, sorry. I changed it. Thank you for telling me.
5680094 no problem
Come on, come on! This is so good, not to mention it gets updated lightning fast!
5682566
MOAR
Indeed
All I have to say is
Yay! More story!
Impressive work!
But look this:
You see the issue here?
And i am glad to help
Awwwwwww yeah! Train heist! Seriously, with an editor and cover art, this could get featured.
I like this story too much
you know i have this straingest feeling that this one is not going trun out the same as the rest.
5689633 I fixed it, you also have a grammar problem: 'But Look this:' part
Thanks.
