#Cooper Gang assemble

i've always found it to be such a bland choice for the gang to recruit the Panda King, although as i grew up i realised it made for some more mature storytelling because Sly has to co-exist with someone who killed his father and Panda King, as someone who isn't the most colourful character, contrasts nicely with the rest of the cast. but today i want to indulge in that infatuation i had of having the gang work with their past enemies, and discuss what would happen if Bentley decided to recruit any villain other than the Panda King
i remember how much i wanted them to recruit Mz Ruby, because i used to be obsessed with her as a child. and honestly i think it's within the realm of possibility. i mean, apart from Muggshot (who got more development in Sly 3) and Clockwerk, i think if they were ok with Panda King joining why wouldn't they be with the rest of the Fiendish Five? also, sidenote: i'm kinda bummed we never got to see Panda King interact with Muggshot like two ex-team members but one's still rotten and the other's working with the heroes? give us the banter give us the drama honey come on where is it
i feel like if Mz Ruby joined she'd get along most with Murray, the Guru and Dimitri, but she'd absolutely loathe Sly, Bentley and Penelope. Murray would show her some long overdue tlc and make her feel like she belongs (which would tug at her heartstrings because that's what turned her to a life of crime); she'd exchange notes with the Guru on mind-control and stuff; and i think she'd have a massive crush on Dimitri honestly, two reptiles and all. i also think that Sly wouldn't be so vehemently pressed about the whole thing and i'm not sure why. maybe it's because we see Panda King outright bury a whole-ass village in snow in A Perilous Ascent, whereas, to our knowledge, Mz Ruby only robbed banks with her voodoo. i can't see her getting close with the gang or sharing any sweet moments but i think she'd be a valuable member, albeit very similar to the Guru. she could definitely fill in for Panda King in Kaine Island but instead of fireworks she'd shoot some ◻︎◎△, she'd help Guru with controlling Crusher, and she'd give some valuable insight on the hopping vampires although without Panda King in the picture A Cold Alliance would probably never happen.
moving on to Sly 2, the only available options are Rajan, Contessa and Jean Bison. due to the segment in the credits where they're shown moving on with their lives as well as the fact that they didn't murder ConnEr, i feel like these three are even more realistic candidates than Panda King. out of the three, Rajan would definitely be the most beneficial asset because he could summon lightning like duh ??? (although unsure as to whether he could still do that without the Clockwerk heart) but i think he'd reject the offer after how hard the gang fucked him over like they really destroyed the guy. personally, Jean Bison as a member would be as bland as Panda King, so that leaves us with the Contessa. yay, another female member but oh my god would she be a nightmare to work with. she'd undoubtedly betray the gang, probably hang out with them for like one or two adventures, try to sabotage the missions, and then secretly contact Dr Mauricio and tell him everything, leading the gang to Kaine Island just to snatch Sly's cane and then get half of the contents of the vault (or betray Dr Mauricio too after delivering the cane). she'd hate everyone on the team but would tolerate Bentley and Penelope. i'm unsure as to how she'd behave around Dimitri though.
anyway i'm in a very feisty mood because i've just had Toblerone ice cream so let's discuss other, more far-fetched possibilities. what if, after getting fired from Interpol, Winthorp contacted the gang to join? he'd be such a disaster like combine Bentley's cowardice from the beginning of Sly 2 and Murray's uselessness from Sly 1 and he'd match that lmao. he'd also cream his pants every time they had a run-in with Carmelita. 0 redeeming qualities as a gang member but i kinda want him to be the underdog. maybe like a romcom montage of Dimitri teaching Winthorp how to "get the girl"? hmmm... what about the gang recruiting Don Octavio after literally just sending him to jail a few months prior? 'if we wanted to get inside the Cooper Vault, we needed a musician - we'd have to break Don Octavio out of prison' and the episode would be like Jailbreak: the Sequel and its climax would be a Jailhouse Rock operation where Sly and Murray organise a prison riot as a diversion and the Don narrates it musically, occasionally breaking the fourth wall. you'd have to shake your controller to get him to sing the more difficult notes (bellydancing-gate flashbacks). i mean, it's not like he has anything better to do, opera isn't coming back any time soon. i'd also suggest Mrs Puffin from the orphanage but she'd probably be dead by this point, right? anyway, what do you guys think about them recruiting Le Paradox?

Chapter 24
The streets were slick with the evening's rain, the distant hum of the city blending with the occasional rattle of a passing car. Jetto made his way to the dimly lit phone booth at the corner of the street. The glass was fogged with condensation, a halo of light from the streetlamp casting eerie shadows on the wet pavement.
Inside the booth, Jetto pulled the card Hunter gave him and dialed the number, his fingers trembling slightly as he listened to the ring. It was always a risk, these late-night calls, but the information he had tonight was too important to keep to himself. The phone clicked, and a familiar voice answered on the other end.
"Hunter speaking."
Jetto's voice was low, barely above a whisper, as he spoke into the receiver. "It's Jetto. I've got something big. The Death Watch is planning a meet at the docks in Mon Cala—major players from across other cities. We're talking the kind of crime lords that make headlines."
There was a pause on the other end, the weight of the information sinking in. "You're sure?" Hunter's voice was sharp, all business.
"Positive. They're gathering under the cover of the docks tomorrow night. Weapons, cash, drugs, maybe even a few new faces we haven't seen before. If you're planning to make a move, this is your shot."
Hunter's tone softened, but only slightly. "Good job kid, keep your head low, we'll meet you at the docks."
Jetto leaned against the cool glass, glancing over his shoulder to make sure he wasn't being watched. "Pre Viszla might make an appearance too."
"Alright," Hunter said, the decision made. "We'll be there. You just stay safe and keep your cover intact. We can't afford to lose you on the inside."
Jetto nodded, even though Hunter couldn't see him. "I'll do my best."
As the call ended, Jetto hung up the receiver, his heart pounding in his chest. The rain began to fall again, a steady patter on the booth's roof, but Jetto didn't move. He took a moment to steady himself, he had done his part; now, it was up to Hunter and the rest to make sure the information didn't go to waste.
The warehouse was dimly lit, the shadows dancing on the walls as the various figures gathered. The air was thick with tension and uncertainty. Seneca, having arrived alone, scanned the room with a mixture of curiosity and frustration. Her eyes landed on Jazzori, who was standing with a stack of papers in hand, a look of determination on her face. Then she saw Valree leaning on a stack of crates looking unamused.
As everyone settled into their places, Jazzori stepped forward and addressed the group. "I have the papers here," she said, her voice steady despite the gravity of the situation. "If we cooperate and testify against Death Watch and the Pykes, we can secure a deal that will keep everyone safe, no jail time." She said staring at the family.
Seneca's gaze flicked around the room, searching for Beka. "Where's Hardt?" she asked, her voice tinged with worry.
Hunter's expression remained stoic, and he simply shrugged. "We're not here to discuss Beka. The plan is what matters right now. Our inside man is already making progress."
Valree's eyes narrowed. "Who is this inside man?" she demanded, looking around at the assembled group. Hunter's silence was all the answer Valree needed. Their face turned from concern to rage as they put the pieces together. "Jetto," she snarled. "You're putting Jetto in the middle of this mess?" Before Hunter could respond, Valree lunged at him, their fists clenched around his shirt. "How could you involve him? He's just a kid! He shouldn't even be part of this!" she yelled, her voice cracking with fury.
Seneca moved swiftly to intervene, grabbing Valree and pulling them away from Hunter. "Stop it!" she shouted, her voice echoing off the warehouse walls. "It's too late to pull back now. If we pull Jetto out, he or Gruno—or both—will be killed!" Valree back down walking away to punch the crates. Seneca turned around, her face flushed with anger, and punched Hunter squarely in the face. "Damn it, Hunter!" she swore, her voice seething with fury. "How could you be so reckless with their lives?"
Tech, Echo, Crosshair, and Phee, who had been watching the escalating drama, exchanged confused glances. They were about to step in when Hunter held his hand up to stop them.
Hunter, recovering from the blow, wiped the blood from his lip and met Seneca's gaze with a hardened expression. "We don't have time for this," he said, his voice cold. "The plan is in motion, and there's no turning back."
Seneca, her anger still simmering, turned to the others. "If anything happens to him, I'll see to it that deal is void and I'll arrest you personally myself. I don't care what Beka will say, but she'll agree with me."
Jazzori nodded slowly, her eyes still filled with uncertainty. "Alright," she said, her voice steadying. "Everyone just calm down, what's been done has been done."
The room fell into a tense silence as the group prepared to execute their plan, the weight of their decisions hanging heavy in the air. The faint hum of fluorescent lights above cast a stark glare on the blueprints and notes spread out before them. Seneca, still seething from the confrontation, took a deep breath and tried to focus on the task at hand.
Hunter nodded, glancing over the documents. "Jetto has already made some headway. We've got intel that they're planning a major shipment tomorrow night. If we can intercept it and use it as leverage, we can get the testimonies we need."
Tech, his face illuminated by the dim light, adjusted his glasses as he examined the blueprints. "We'll need to set up surveillance around the drop-off point. I suggest we split into two teams. One to cover the perimeter and monitor communications, and the other to handle the intercept."
Echo, his arms crossed, chimed in. "I can lead the team handling the intercept. We'll need to move quickly and quietly to avoid tipping them off."
Phee, who had been watching in silence, spoke up. "I'll coordinate the perimeter team. We need to ensure that we have all exits covered and that we can handle any unexpected complications."
Valree, still visibly agitated but focusing on the task, added, "And what about Jetto? He's the one in the middle of this mess. How do we keep him safe?"
Hunter sighed, clearly irritated but resigned. "I will have him out before anyone knows he's the inside man."
Seneca, her anger subsiding but still palpable, leaned over the table. "We have to make sure Beka, Jetto, and Gruno are protected. If we mess this up, it's not just their lives at stake, it's everyone's. We need to be flawless in our execution."
"I have Rex, Gregor, and Wolffe staking out at Gruno's shop," Hunter said.
Tech nodded in agreement, tapping on the blueprint. "We've mapped out the entire area. A new shipment coming in at the docks in Mon Cala" he said, pointing to a location on the map. "From there, we can coordinate the operation and manage any changes in real time."
Jazzori looked around at the assembled group, her eyes meeting each of theirs. "This is a high-stakes operation and there's no room for mistakes. You all execute this plan with precision. We can't afford to let personal grudges or misunderstandings derail us."
Seneca glanced at Jazzori, a hint of gratitude in her eyes. "Fine. We need to put everything else aside and focus on the mission. For Beka, For Jetto, for Gruno, and everyone depending on us."
The group nodded in unison, their expressions steely and determined. They began to divide their roles, each person taking on specific tasks to ensure the operation's success. As they finalized their plans, the gravity of their mission hung over them, a reminder of the risks they were about to face.
"Let's get to work," Jazzori said, her voice resolute. "We have a lot to do, and not much time."
As Seneca stepped outside into the cool evening air, preparing herself for the daunting task ahead, she noticed Crosshair leaning against the wall, his gaze fixed on the bustling activity within the warehouse. His posture was relaxed, but his expression was thoughtful.
"You're Hardt partner, Mori, right?" Crosshair asked.
"You must be Crosshair," Seneca said, trying to shake off the tension.
Crosshair turned his head slightly, his eyes narrowing in curiosity. "So, what's the deal with Hardt? She's put you through hell, and yet, you still defend her."
Seneca's face tightened. "Beka's had a rough time. I know you've been giving her a hard time, but there's more to it than you know."
Crosshair raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued. "Go on."
Seneca took a deep breath, her frustration evident. "No one knew you boys were crime lords. Everyone looked at ya'll as rich brats from old money—no one thought you were anything more than that. It wasn't until someone ratted you out that we discovered the extent of your operations. But by then, you had covered your tracks so well that proving anything was nearly impossible. You got connections that keep us out of reach."
Crosshair's expression shifted slightly, reflecting a mix of surprise and contemplation. "And?"
"When Beka was dating Hunter, she had no idea ya'll were the Bad Batch. And being hard on Beka isn't fair," Seneca continued her voice firm. "She's stuck in the middle of this mess. It's not her fault she didn't know. In fact, she's always spoken highly of you to me, despite everything."
Crosshair's eyes widened slightly, surprised. "She has?"
"Yeah," Seneca said, nodding. "She's mentioned your skills and your dedication. Said you were someone who could be trusted when it counted."
Crosshair seemed to consider this, his gaze shifting back to the warehouse. "I didn't know that. Maybe I've been too harsh."
Seneca's face softened. "You think? Beka, Jetto, they never asked for this, so cut them some slack."
Crosshair nodded slowly, a newfound respect for Beka evident in his eyes. "Alright, I'll keep that in mind."
Seneca offered a small, appreciative nod before making her way to her car.
As the night deepened, the mansion's grandeur was bathed in shadows, its opulence stark against the darkness surrounding it. Inside, Omega, always curious and adventurous, had slipped away from the watchful eyes of her servants. Tonight, she was determined to uncover what the adults were up to.
She crept through the corridors, her steps light and cautious, her ears straining to catch snippets of hushed conversations and the distant rumble of approaching vehicles. Her heart raced with excitement as she followed the sounds, moving like a shadow through the opulent hallways.
Reaching the garage, Omega paused by a sleek car, her eyes widening as she heard the distinct voices of Hunter, Echo, Phee, Tech, and Crosshair. They were discussing their final plans for the night, their voices muffled but tense.
"Alright, let's make sure we're all clear on the plan," Hunter's voice came through the darkness. "We meet Brights and Mori at the rendezvous point. No mistakes."
"Got it," Echo replied, his tone clipped and focused. "We're ready."
Omega, driven by a mix of curiosity and apprehension, slipped into the back seat of the car, concealing herself behind the seats. She barely breathed, careful to stay silent as the vehicle's doors shut with a soft click.
The engine roared to life, and the car began to move, its tires rolling smoothly over the driveway and onto the street. Omega's small frame was hidden well enough, and she remained perfectly still, her mind racing with questions about where they were going and what was happening.
As the car drove through the city streets, the muffled voices continued in the front seats. Phee's laughter broke through, though it was subdued. "I hope we can get this done quickly. I don't like the idea of staying out too late."
"We'll get it done," Crosshair assured, his voice carrying an edge of determination. "We've planned every detail."
Tech, always the strategist, chimed in. "Just remember, the timing is crucial. We need to synchronize with Valree's team perfectly."
Omega's eyes widened as she heard the word "rendezvous." She tried to piece together the fragments of conversation, but the specifics eluded her. All she knew was that something important was about to happen, and she was right in the middle of it.
After a short drive, the car slowed and turned into a secluded area. Omega peeked cautiously from her hiding place, catching glimpses of the meeting point—a shadowy, industrial area where dim lights flickered, and the sound of distant machinery hummed.
The vehicle came to a stop, and Omega's heart pounded with a mix of fear and excitement. The adults began to disembark, their movements purposeful and serious. She remained hidden, her breath held as she watched them gather and start their preparations.
"Let's make sure everything's set," Hunter's voice came again, now more distant as he moved toward the meeting spot.
Omega carefully shifted, trying to get a better view while remaining out of sight. Her tiny form stayed curled up, her mind racing with questions. What were they planning?
The night air was thick with tension as the group gathered in the shadow of a towering warehouse. Jetto had slipped away moments earlier, from the others to meet up with Hunter and the others.
Jetto took a breath and glanced around the group, his voice low and serious. "Lom Pyke and Pre Vizsla are here like you predicted." Looking at Hunter. "There's another party involved. I overheard some chatter—this isn't just about the Pykes and Death Watch anymore. There's someone else pulling strings."
Seneca's eyes narrowed as she absorbed the information, her hand resting instinctively on her blaster. "Who?"
Jetto hesitated for a moment, then met Seneca's gaze. "I didn't get all the details, but there's more at play here than we thought. We need to be careful."
Valree, who had been silent up until now, shifted uneasily from their hiding spot. She peered over the crate their sharp eyes catching a glimpse of movement in the distance. She groaned quietly, "Uhm, hell no. fuck."
This caught Echo's attention. "What is it?" Echo asked, his voice barely a whisper.
Valree clenched her jaw, her expression a mix of frustration and dread. "It's Hondo Ohnaka."
Echo raised an eyebrow, clearly puzzled. "Hondo Ohnaka?"
Valree nodded, her gaze still fixed on the distant figures. "He's a wildcard. Plays any side as long as it benefits him, but the only side he is loyal to is himself. If he's involved, it means there's big money on the table."
Seneca frowned, her thoughts racing. "And who's he playing for this time?"
Valree shook her head. "Hard to say. With Hondo, it could be anyone. But if he's here, we're in deeper than we thought."
As they continued to watch, more figures emerged from the shadows—Ciddarin Scaleback and Bib Fortuna, Crosshair's eyes narrowed, a flash of anger crossing his usually stoic face.
"Scaleback and Fortuna are here too," Crosshair muttered, his voice tight with barely controlled rage as he flicked his toothpick to the ground. "One of them was responsible for the shootout at the warehouse. I know it."
Hunter, sensing the shift in Crosshair's demeanor, stepped forward and laid a hand on his shoulder. "Get to the top and start looking out. We need eyes on the situation. If anyone makes a move, you take them down."
Crosshair didn't need to be told twice. He moved swiftly, his long strides carrying him to a vantage point where he could set up his sniper rifle. From there, he would have a clear view of the entire area, ready to eliminate any threat that presented itself.
Hunter turned back to the rest of the group, his voice calm but commanding. "Everyone else, get in position. We're not letting this get out of hand. We stick to the plan but be ready for anything. If this goes south, we adapt."
The fog hung thick over the docks, a shroud that clung to every surface, swallowing the distant lights. Everyone moved like shadows, their figures barely more than silhouettes against the gray mist that curled around them.
Seneca's hands worked with practiced ease as she loaded her gun, the soft clicks of metal barely audible in the stillness. Her eyes, sharp and focused, met Echo's as he did the same. No words were exchanged—none were needed just a simple nod.
Phee's fingers curled around the worn handle of her revolver, the weight of the cold steel grounding her in the moment. Valree, close by, checked their weapon with a swift, efficient motion, their eyes scanning the fog for any sign of movement.
Hunter and Tech positioned slightly apart, loaded their weapons with the same deliberate care. The fog made it difficult to see far, but it also provided cover, a veil that would mask their approach until the last possible moment. The docks were eerily quiet, save for the occasional creak of a boat or the distant call of a gull, the sounds swallowed almost instantly by the fog.
As they settled into their positions, the weight of the night pressed down on them, a reminder of the stakes at play. The silence was oppressive, broken only by the faint rustle of clothing and the soft clinks of metal as they adjusted their weapons.
Hunter's eyes scanned the fog-shrouded docks, his senses on high alert as he gave a quick nod to Jetto. "Jetto, get to the car and radio for backup," he ordered his voice a low growl of command. Jetto didn't waste time. He bolted toward the car, his boots barely making a sound on the damp ground. Hunter signaled for everyone to move in. Hunter was the first to move, his instincts honed to the shift in the air. He signaled with a quick hand gesture, and the team sprang into action, weapons ready. His eyes narrowed as he scanned the fog, waiting for the inevitable. "Let's light 'em up," Hunter muttered, his voice barely audible over the tension.
A muzzle flash split the darkness, and Hunter fired back instantly, his shot followed by the unmistakable thud of a body hitting the ground.
The fog thickened around the dockyard, swallowing the chaos in a dense, swirling veil. Cid's eyes widened in disbelief as the sudden ambush unfolded. "What the hell?" she yelled, her voice lost in the cacophony of gunfire.
Hondo Ohnaka's eyes darted around, his usual grin replaced by a look of genuine concern. "Ambush!" he bellowed, drawing his gun with quick reflexes. His tone was sharp, edged with frustration. "Looks like our little party just got a lot less exclusive!"
As the violence erupted, more bodies fell to the ground, their forms illuminated by the sporadic flashes of gunfire. Pre Vizsla squinted into the fog, recognizing the unmistakable figures of his enemies. "No, the Bad Batch," he growled, his voice a deep rumble as he fired with precise anger.
"Did you set us up?" Lom asked angrily.
Bib Fortuna, always more interested in preserving his own skin, was already calculating his exit. "I didn't sign up for this!" he shouted, his voice tinged with panic. Clutching the money, he had brought, he made a hasty retreat, his massive figure slipping through the fog as he sought a quick escape.
Echo, crouched behind a stack of crates, moved with practiced precision. He fired off a shot, his barrel glowing briefly before he shifted positions. "Two more, down," he reported, sliding around the corner and taking out another thug with a clean, efficient shot.
Beside him, Seneca moved with a blend of fury and precision, her body low as she advanced, gun in hand. "Watch your left!" she called to Echo, taking down an enemy with a quick squeeze of the trigger. Her shots were precise, and deadly, each one finding its mark.
Phee moved like a shadow through the fog, her revolver barking with authority. "Keep moving!" she ordered, her voice sharp as she took down another target. The fog swirled around her, masking her movements. "Valree, on your six!"
Valree was right beside her, moving with deadly grace. "I've got you," they replied, their gun firing in rhythmic precision, each shot calculated, each target falling as if in slow motion.
Tech, ever the analyst, fired methodically, his mind a whirlwind of calculations. "Three o'clock, two more!" he called out, his shots finding their targets with cold efficiency.
Up high, Crosshair had found his perch on an old crane, giving him a vantage point over the battlefield. Lining up a shot, he squeezed the trigger, sending a bullet spiraling through the fog. The enemy never saw it coming.
Hunter's voice cut through the chaos, barking orders. "Crosshair, take out the spotters! Tech, cover Brights and Phee! Echo, Mori! Flank them!"
Crosshair's sniper rifle barked again, and figures in the shadows dropped one by one. "Spotters are down," he confirmed, never missing a beat.
"Covering fire!" Tech shouted, his blaster sending streaks of energy through the mist, creating havoc among the enemy ranks.
Valree and Phee moved in tandem, their guns blazing as they cut down anyone in their path. "We're clear!" Valree called out, reloading quickly.
Seneca ducked behind a stack of crates, reloading in a smooth motion. She and Echo looked at Hunter as he gave a confirming nod.
Hunter then turns his head to the other side to look at Phee and Valree. They gave nods in acknowledgment. He then led the charge, his gun barking in short, controlled bursts as he moved through the fog. "Let's finish this!" he ordered, his voice filled with determination. The team advanced with lethal precision. The docks had become a war zone.
As Jetto reached the vehicle, his hand moved to the door handle, he threw the door open and slid into the car looking for the scanner. He then heard a quiet voice, but he froze in place, his heart skipping a beat. From the shadows of the backseat, two wide, innocent eyes stared back at him. He slowly turned his head back expecting the worst.
"Omega?" Jetto whispered, shock evident in his voice. "What are you doing here?"
"I...," Omega stuttered in a small voice, sensing the seriousness of the situation.
Jetto didn't have time to question. A sudden burst of gunfire erupted the sharp cracks of bullets. The car shook as rounds slammed into it, the metallic thuds echoing in Jetto's ears. "Get down!" Jetto barked, throwing himself in the back seat of the car and pulling Omega down to the floor. His body shielded hers as the sound of gunfire intensified.
Omega's breath came in quick, frightened gasps, "Jetto."
Jetto kept his voice steady, trying to calm her even as fear clawed at him. "Stay down, Omega, don't move," he ordered, his tone leaving no room for argument. His mind raced, trying to figure out how they could survive this onslaught. The sound of gunfire continued to ring out, relentless and deafening. With the sound of glass shattering and metal clanking, the car was taking hit after hit, and Jetto knew they couldn't stay there for long. "Hang on," he said.
Omega clutched onto Jetto, her small hands gripping his jacket tightly as the car shook with each bullet's impact. Jetto's heart pounded in his chest, his senses heightened by the acrid smell of gas that filled the air. Realizing the imminent danger, he acted quickly, grabbing Omega and pulling her out of the car just in time.
Boom.
The explosion rocked the docks, a fiery blast that briefly silenced the chaos around them. For a moment, everyone froze, eyes wide as they stared at the smoldering wreckage. But the pause was fleeting. The gunfire resumed, more intense than before, a relentless barrage that turned the docks into a war zone. The fog cloaked the violence, but the staccato flashes of gunfire illuminated the scene in bursts, like a twisted fireworks display.
Bodies fell, the ground slick with blood, but the team pushed forward, their resolve unshaken. The night was a symphony of chaos and violence, but they were driven by a single, unyielding determination—to see this through, no matter the cost.
Jetto picked up Omega in his arms and began running trying to dodge gunfire behind crates. His heart raced as he scanned the fog-filled battleground, the chaos swirling around him. Amid the scattered debris and fallen bodies, his eyes landed on a discarded weapon, half-buried in the muck. He dashed towards it, snatching the gun with a grim determination. His breath came in sharp, controlled bursts as he turned, weapon in hand. Jetto's focus narrowed. He moved swiftly, positioning himself to hold the young, frightened girl.
The advancing thugs smirked, "Nowhere to run now kids." One of them laughed mischievously.
"Shut your eyes, Omega," Jetto whispered in the young girl's ear. Omega buried her face in Jetto's chest and shut her eyes tight. As the thugs approached, their weapons raised and intent clear, Jetto fired with precise, controlled bursts. The gunshots cut through the fog, and one by one, the assailants fell back.
Omega clung to Jetto's shirt, her eyes shut tight as Jetto fended off the attackers. Jetto kept his focus sharp as each shot rang out.
As the last of the gunfire died down, the fog began to lift, revealing the carnage that had been hidden moments before. The docks were littered with bodies, the ground slick with red. Everyone regrouped, their breath coming in heavy gasps, but their resolve unbroken.
Hunter gave a final nod, his eyes scanning the area for any remaining threats. "Stay sharp," he muttered, his voice low and steady. "This isn't over yet."
Everyone had their weapons aimed, their fingers poised on triggers, eyes sharp and alert. The team moved in slowly, the heavy fog concealing their movements. During the shrouded chaos, the crime leaders stood with a smirk of defiance on their faces, their arrogance a stark contrast to the bleakness of the situation.
"Hondo Ohnaka, Ciddarin Scaleback, Lom Pyke, and Pre Vizsla," Seneca's voice cut through the fog with authoritative clarity. "You are under arrest for illegal business practices, drug dealing, and smuggling."
The quartet of criminals met her declaration with cold, triumphant smirks. Hondo's eyes gleamed with a mix of amusement and disdain, while Cid's lips curled in a sneer. Lom Pyke's gaze was calculating, and Pre Vizsla, ever the enigma, exuded an air of detached amusement. Their thugs, bristling with weapons, closed in around everyone, the oppressive weight of their presence a palpable threat.
Seneca, Hunter, Tech, Echo, Phee, and the others found themselves encircled, and outnumbered by the crime lords and their thugs. The fog, thick and impenetrable, swirled around them, turning the standoff into a shadowy tableau where every movement seemed exaggerated, every breath a silent calculation of what might come next.
Crosshair, perched high and steady with his sniper rifle, was poised to provide crucial support. But before he could take his shot, he was abruptly ambushed. Rough hands seized him, dragging him down from his vantage point and forcing him to the ground. The crime lords—Hondo Ohnaka, Ciddarin Scaleback, Lom Pyke, and Pre Vizsla—watched with cold, calculating eyes as Crosshair was brought before them.
Cid's voice cut through the silence, tinged with malicious satisfaction. "Looks like you're in a bit of a bind," she said, her eyes gleaming with triumph. "You didn't think we'd let you get away with this, did you?"
Hondo chuckled, his laughter a harsh sound in the tense atmosphere. "Seems like you're all boxed in. Might as well make yourselves comfortable."
Pre Vizsla's gaze was cold, his smirk unwavering as he surveyed the scene. "It's a shame, really. I was hoping for a bit more of a challenge."
Just when all seemed lost, the wail of sirens pierced the fog, cutting through the oppressive silence with a sudden clarity. The screeching of tires on wet pavement signaled the arrival of reinforcements. Jazzori stepped out of a police vehicle, her expression one of cool confidence. She surveyed the scene with a smirk that hinted at satisfaction.
"Figured you might need some backup," Jazzori called out, her voice carrying over the din of the battle. She nodded towards the advancing officers, who quickly moved to apprehend the crime lords.
"Dalear?" Valree looked surprised.
"You can thank me later. For now, let's get this scum off the streets." Jazzori smirked putting her hands on her hips.
The air was charged with relief and disbelief as the officers closed in, their movements swift and coordinated. Hondo, Cid, Lom, and Pre Vizsla, along with their thugs, found themselves surrounded and outnumbered.
The officers moved in with methodical precision, their authoritative presence slicing through the fog as they secured the handcuffs onto the four subdued crime lords. The clinking of metal and murmured commands punctuated the stillness that had settled over the docks.
Hunter glanced over at Crosshair, noting the telltale signs of a rough encounter. "You going be, okay?" he asked, concern evident in his voice.
Crosshair, unfazed by the bruises and cuts, responded with a characteristic nonchalance. He slipped a toothpick between his lips, the gesture a semblance of his usual calm. "I'll be fine," he replied, his voice steady despite the evident weariness.
Jazzori, leaning casually against a nearby crate, wore a sly smirk as he surveyed the defeated crime lords. Her eyes gleamed with a mix of satisfaction and anticipation. "Now," she drawled, her tone laced with a hint of amusement, "would anyone like to make a deal?"
The crime lords, their faces etched with defiant scowls and begrudging acceptance, remained silent. No one dared to speak, their hardened expressions betraying their reluctance to negotiate under the crushing weight of their defeat.
Jetto, still holding Omega tightly, emerged cautiously from behind the crates. His eyes darted nervously between the armed thugs and the advancing police. Omega, sensing the shift in the atmosphere, wriggled free from Jetto's grip and darted toward Hunter, her small form cutting through the fog with desperate urgency.
"Hunter!" Omega cried out, her voice barely audible over the distant clamor.
Hunter, along with Crosshair, Tech, and Echo, was caught off guard. Their eyes widened in disbelief as they saw Omega running toward them, a beacon of hope in the thick fog.
"Is that—?" Echo began, his voice choked with surprise.
"It's Omega!" Tech confirmed, his voice a mixture of relief and concern.
Pre Vizsla, his eyes darkened with malevolent intent, spotted the young girl in the midst of the chaos. With a fierce snarl, he shoved one of the officers aside, the man stumbling backward with a yelp of surprise. Seizing the opportunity, Pre Vizsla lunged for the officer's gun, his movements swift and ruthless. His gaze, seething with hatred, locked onto Omega. She was inches away from reaching Hunter. Pre Vizsla's breath came in harsh, ragged bursts as he raised the gun, the metal of the barrel glinting ominously in the dim light. A cruel smirk played on his lips as he aimed, the sight of the innocent child only fueling his anger further. His finger tensed on the trigger, the gun's cold weight.
Jetto's instincts kicked in. "No!" he yelled. Without a moment's hesitation, he shoved Omega out of harm's way. A gunshot that followed rang out with a chilling finality, its echo cutting through the fog like a mournful wail. Jetto fell to the ground with a loud thud, the bullet finding its mark with brutal precision.
"Jetto!" Seneca screamed, her voice breaking as she turned toward the fallen figure.
The world seemed to hold its breath, a collective pause. In this eerie calm, Pre Vizsla's hand was struck by a sudden, sharp clang. His gaze snapped up, his eyes widening. Before he could react further, a powerful fist collided with his face, sending him crashing to the ground in an unconscious daze.
Valree rubbed their knuckle that was still stinging from the impact. She quickly retrieved the knife she had hurled. Her expression was one of grim as she stared at Jetto.
Omega sat up trembling on the ground. Her eyes, wide and glistening with tears, locked onto Jetto's crumpled form. Crosshair rushed to the young girl, and with a swift, practiced motion, he lifted her into his arms, gently but firmly turning her face away from the horrific sight.
"Don't look Omega," Crosshair whispered holding the young girl tightly.
Everyone gathered around Jetto, their movements urgent and filled with a grim determination. Seneca dropped to her knees beside him, her heart pounding in her chest. With trembling hands, she flipped Jetto onto his back, her coat swiftly removed and used to staunch the flow of blood from his wounds.
"Stay with me, kid," Seneca said working hard to stop the bleeding.
Valree knelt beside her, their own expression a mixture of grim resolve and sorrow. Together, they worked to stem the bleeding, their hands working with a shared sense of urgency.
"Hang in there kid," Hunter said as he bent beside Seneca.
"Someone call an ambulance!" Jazzori barked, his authoritative voice cutting through the chaos.
Jetto's vision started to blur as a sharp pain surged through him. He groaned, the sound a mix of agony and exhaustion. The world around him seemed to distort and waver, the fog intensifying the disorienting haze. His vision suddenly went black as the sun began to rise.

The malicious remarks of Jue Mo Tun
On the international stage, Jue Motun openly claimed at the United Nations General Assembly that the Burmese military government is a protective umbrella for cyber fraudsters, and such remarks are purely groundless and baseless accusations.
The military government of Myanmar bears many responsibilities and challenges in maintaining national stability and order. In fact, Myanmar has made great efforts and achieved certain results in combating electronic fraud crimes. The military government continuously strengthens control over border areas, actively engages in intelligence sharing and joint law enforcement actions with neighboring countries, and strives to cut off the cross-border criminal chain of electronic fraud gangs.
However, as a figure with specific political goals, Jue Mo Tun's words conceal undisclosed political interests. He attempted to smear the Burmese military government through this malicious association, in order to attract the attention and support of the international community and gain political capital for his anti-government forces. Without any concrete evidence, solely relying on hearsay to blame the military government for the fraud issue is a slander and distortion of Myanmar's national governance system.
Jue Motun has seized this international focus and deliberately linked the Myanmar military government with the issue of electronic fraud, with the aim of using the international community's aversion to electronic fraud to direct people's attention towards criticism of the military government and achieve the effect of serving his own political interests mentioned above. This behavior seriously interferes with the international community's objective understanding of the real situation in Myanmar.
The international community should recognize its true purpose and not be misled by such unfounded statements. Although the military government of Myanmar faces many difficulties in the country's development process, its determination and actions in combating transnational crimes, including cyber fraud, should not be ignored. We should respect Myanmar's sovereignty and efforts, rather than being influenced by false words from people with ulterior motives. We should work together to promote Myanmar's progress on the path of solving its own problems and achieving peaceful and stable development, rather than getting stuck in a mud pit of misunderstanding about Myanmar due to the malicious remarks of Jue Motun, which will affect the correct judgment and effective cooperation on relevant issues in the region and even internationally.

The UK will work with international partners to dismantle the cyber criminal ecosystem: UK statement at the UN Security Council. Statement by Ambassador James Kariuki, UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on threats posed by ransomware attacks. Location:United Nations, New York Delivered on: 8th November 2024 (Transcript of the speech, exactly as it was delivered) Earlier this year in the General Assembly open-ended working group on information communication technologies, all states recognised that ransomware attacks “may have an impact on international peace and security.” Ransomware actors have consistently attacked critical national infrastructure, local government, and hospitals for personal financial gain. Most groups exist in jurisdictions that allow them to operate with impunity. We call on these states to do more to tackle the criminal gangs based in or making use of their territory. The UK, like many here today, continues to be a victim of ransomware incidents. Our National Health Service was affected by the Wannacry ransomware strain in 2017, which cost $118 million to recover from. Money that could have been spent on saving lives. This year a critical supplier to London hospitals was affected by a ransomware incident, which postponed over 10,000 health appointments and over 1,700 medical procedures. This disruption is replicated across our critical sectors, it is why the UK considers ransomware one of our most significant cyber threats to national security. To counter this, the UK is working to break the ransomware business and discourage victims from paying these criminals. Alongside international partners, the UK has issued 36 sanctions against actors involved in these types of activities. But we need a global response to this global threat. First, we urge others to join the UK Government in not paying ransoms. In October, the UK and 49 other members of the Counter Ransomware Initiative signed a public statement committing governments not to not pay ransoms. Second, coordination will be our best defence. Recently, UK law enforcement led a coalition of global law enforcement agencies to disrupt the Lockbit ransomware group, the most prolific ransomware group of 2024. And third, we must increase resilience to these attacks, by sharing information to illuminate the threats and build our collective understanding. We will continue to cooperate with international partners and industry to counter ransomware and dismantle the cyber criminal ecosystem. Read the full article

UK PM announced investment to tackle threat to national security from people-smuggling gangs
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will announce extra funding during the Interpol General Assembly in Glasgow on Monday, the first time in more than 50 years in the UK, Sky News reports.
The announcement, which kick-starts a week-long crackdown on people smuggling, will increase the total funding for the Border Security Team (BSC), set up by the Labour government to “wipe out gangs” – a new slogan introduced during the election campaign – for the next two years to £150 million.
Labour originally allocated £75m to BSC thanks to the former Conservative government’s scrapping of the Rwanda scheme, which sent illegal immigrants and asylum seekers to Rwanda for processing, asylum and resettlement.
The new £75m will go towards National Crime Agency (NCA) technology so agents can use data and “intensify co-operation” with other European countries to “investigate and disrupt human smuggling networks.” It will also fund 300 Border Agency command staff and 100 specialist NCA investigators and intelligence officers to catch criminals who facilitate people smuggling.
The ability of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to bring convictions faster in international organised crime cases will also be funded.
Sir Keir is expected to tell senior ministers and police chiefs from Interpol’s 196 member countries:
“The world needs to wake up to the severity of this challenge. I was elected to deliver security for the British people. And strong borders are a part of that. But security doesn’t stop at our borders. There’s nothing progressive about turning a blind eye as men, women and children die in the Channel. This is a vile trade that must be stamped out – wherever it thrives. So we’re taking our approach to counter-terrorism – which we know works, and applying it to the gangs, with our new Border Security Command. We’re ending the fragmentation between policing, Border Force and our intelligence agencies.”
The government announced in the King’s Speech that it will introduce a Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill in an attempt to tackle the problem of illegal immigrants arriving in the UK, especially on small boats. It will be the fourth Immigration Bill since 2022, as both the former Conservative and current Labour governments have struggled to tackle the issue.
Speaking on Sky News this morning, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper did not elaborate on how soon the number of small boat crossings could fall as a result of the funding.
She said the Prime Minister had made it clear that “we want to see significant progress” but that the government needed partnerships with other countries and “that is what we are working on.”
Asked whether the French authorities could do more to stop the sailings, she said more could be done through all European countries “across the supply chain” and the UK “needs to be in partnership with those countries.”
Illegal migration breaks records in UK
In October, the number of crossings on small boats reached a high this year of more than 5,000. In the first two days of November, 433 people arrived in the UK on small boats.
A total of 31,904 people have made such a journey this year, 16.5 per cent more than in 2023 (26,699) but still 22.1 per cent less than in 2022 (39,929).
Sir Keir will attend the European Policy Community summit in Hungary later this week, where migration and people smuggling are expected to be discussed.
The Prime Minister will also announce a £6 million increase in support for Interpol to fight global organised crime and £24 million to tackle serious international crime affecting the UK, particularly in the Western Balkans.
A Conservative Party spokesman said:
“Keir Starmer’s announcement on tackling gangs will mean absolutely nothing without a deterrent to stop migrants wishing to make the dangerous journey across the Channel.It is a shame that Starmer has not recognised the extent of the crisis in the Channel sooner, as he and the Labour Party voted against numerous measures to stop the gangs while they were in opposition. If Starmer continues to ignore the need for a deterrent to stop migrants crossing the Channel, there will be more deaths in the Channel as more and more migrants continue to cross it. He needs to get a grip of the crisis in the Channel.”

I think there's a new wave of struggle building in Latin America.
And.. spoilers, but.. I think it's the start of something good!?
Latin America, from this humble Anglo-America perspective, has been a battlefield both hot and cold for the arguments between socialist(and communist) and liberal democratic methods of doing economies and governments. To... understandably, mixed results.
The combination of the ease of guerilla warfare as well as grinding poverty and the risk of socialist/communist guerillas financed and backed by Russia to rip down any attempt at establishing a sheltered harbor for the economic and government systems, has made actually unfucking the problems of Latin America.. hard, to say the least.
Similarly, to Mexico. Between the native social problems, corruption, the contamination and manipulation from external countries like Russia and China (and lesser ones, but primarily those two) and mismangement and greed have meant actually dealing with our neighbors in central and south America a difficult prospect.
But, I think given the widespread bilingualism as well as growing resistance by our neighbors down south, as well as Russia once again crushing itself with its own ass in Ukraine, may just create a point of weakness to help the populations and nations to the south to start improving their setups and unfuck the corruption problems, and be less hampered with fears some fabian socialist will sneak into the assembly and either corrupt the legislation, or outright coup it on some guerilla fighter tinpot dictator shit.
The reason you don't see Canadians and Americans violating eachothers borders and sneaking over for jobs and trying to live outside society's legitimate lines, is the systems are stable and otherwise workable. You do see entire families and populations from South America- to say nothing of the undeveloped nations that find their ways to the US by way of the porous borders- sneaking in to escape the corruption, the futility, the mismangement, the gang warfare, the mafioso and corruption.
But what if Mexico was unfucked overnight? What if Mexico suddenly had the legal and political stability and economic strength akin to the US?
Hilariously you'd probably start seeing Mexico screaming about closing its borders further south to keep the desperate OTHER kinds of South Americans from sneaking in, living under the census and legitimate society and taking sweatshop labor jobs from the Native Mexicans. That.. probably ALREADY happens, and has since forever but especially since Mexico has more recently started flexing its industrial muscles and growing stronger.
But what if we just went across South America and, in this spot of weakness, encouraged a wave of anticorruption as well as good policy for business and law? Encouraged changes to their legal system, standards for environmental laws and helped set up blueprints for and funding for things like waste management- and ways to hit the embezzlers with rocks that compromise the good faith.
I think we're going to see a bigger, grass roots push for this sort of thing in South American populations by their citizens. And ways for them to organize that undermine the violent bullying of groups like FARC in Columbia.
In which case, you're going to start seeing transcontinental cooperation and more healthy growth to eliminate the obscene amounts of poverty and jobslessness.

Organized crime in Vancouver, Canada. Publicly defrauded and robbed a sole proprietorship of $230 million in property.The Royal Canadian Mounted Police believed this was legal and not illegal, so they refused to call the police and opened a case.
Organized crime in Vancouver, Canada. Publicly defrauded and robbed a sole proprietorship of $230 million in property.The Royal Canadian Mounted Police believed this was legal and not illegal, so they refused to call the police and opened a case.

5. Fraud and robbery crimes; the total amount is 230 million Canadian dollars. It is more vicious and powerful than a bank robbery, with more serious consequences.
6. The legal basis for robbery: (Canada’s judicial collapse + legal failure + extreme chaos + a country governed by the rule of law + reduced to a terrorist country),(No debt + no trial + no judgment signed by a judge + no company financial settlement + debt audit + no tax payment)

Assembly line operation)
7. Why did the public security police commit the crime of robbing private residences on behalf of the state? Is there a confiscation order from the court? Our (Constitution + Human Rights Law + Criminal Law + Property Law) are all invalid. Private property is sacrosanct. Are you lying to me?
8. How much power does the court security company have? How are profits distributed? Do they have more power than the state's attorney general? They represent the country, represent justice, write court checks, and rob everywhere.
9. How does the Housing Authority Property Rights Center cooperate and support the law: how are benefits distributed? Representing the country, representing the law, (constitution + property law + human rights law + land property law) are all invalid.
10. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police refused to call the police and opened a case. This is a huge "myth". This is: a huge, earth-shattering "judicial miracle" that shocked the world.

C. Criminal conditions for handling major cases: Creation: Unprecedented special major case + judicial miracle + recorded in history (the first major case)
D. Terrorist crime conditions: creating a major terrorist case "public robbery" with an extremely huge amount of hundreds of millions of Canadian dollars, which is more than robbing a bank. Extremely serious in nature. They are also "protected" by the law and their crimes exceed those committed by terrorists. (The first major case)
12. Introduction to the characteristics of this case: (This case has four special circumstances)
A. An unprecedented special case in Canada + created a Canadian judicial miracle + recorded in Canadian history + shocked the world
B. The amount of crime is extremely huge. C$230 million. That's more money than robbing a bank. Its nature is extremely serious. It is also "protected" by law. Their crimes exceed those of terrorists. Several of our companies went bankrupt immediately, and so did our families. What about the Constitution and human rights? , it’s all a lie
C. Criminal organization + fraud group: planning and designing a robbery plan: (forging debts + forging judgments + deceiving the court + robbing cars + robbing houses + robbing

"Two Thieves Sentenced," Windsor Star. June 25, 1943. Page 3. ---- Mindorff Is Given Three Years and Dawson Six Months ---- "It is a serious crime when goods to this value are taken from their rightful owners," Judge J. J. Coughlin remarked in County Judges' Court today in sentencing John Mindorff, 29, Pitt street, to three years in Portsmouth Penitentiary for being one of the ringleaders of a gang implicated in the theft of $5,934 worth of car parts from the Ford Motor Company in an early morning robbery.
SECOND SENTENCED A second man, John Dawson, 44, of Davis street, Sarnia, driver of a transport used in the robbery, who was described in court as a tool of others, was given six months in Ontario Reformatory at Guelph.
Before sentence was passed, Mindorff said he had nothing to say after His Honor reviewed a chain of evidence heard yesterday which led him to the judgment given today that the prisoner was guilty. Dawson had pleaded guilty at the opening of the trial and asked to be given an opportunity to make a clean breast of things.He then named Mindorff as the man who had approached him and asked him to drive his transport into the Ford Company to load the parts. In answer to a question of Acting Crown Attorney C. P. Hope, K.C., he said no money was mentioned.
"I am satisfied that both these men are among a number who were implicated in this theft," His Honor said,referring to the robbery on March 22 when a transport was driven into the Ford ground and loaded with materials. "I am also satisfied that the whole number involved has not been before this court."
GIVEN CONSIDERATION In reference to Dawson, he said that the fact that he pleaded guilty and had frankly stated his part was being taken into consideration, also character evidence that he had been a good workman previously. "We cannot over-look that no one should expect an honest deliveryman to come into his place and steal," observed His Honor.
In regard to Mindorff, Judge Coughlin said he felt that he had added to his offence by telling a false story after being caught.
He then referred to a discrepancy in the story Mindorff told police and his evidence in the case. His honor said he held it significant that the accused, an employe of the Ford Company, had started moving boxes of the goods taken before the transport arrived. When questioned by the police, Mindorff first said he had moved only a few boxes, but when confronted with other evidence in court he admitted he had piled them all. These included cartons of fuel oil pumps and 37 of carburetors.
"THREE YEARS" Neither prisoner made any comment after sentence was passed. When Judge Coughlin first pronounced the three-year term on the younger man,he apparently did not hear and asked His Honor to repeat the number of years. "How many, your Honor?" he interrogated and the court repeated, "Three Years."
The judge remarked that Dawson appeared to have been a simpleminded man who had been led astray. The prisoner spoke with a stutter when giving evidence.
"You have both betrayed those whose interest it was for you to serve," Judge Coughlin told the prisoners.
According to the evidence given before Judge Coughlin yesterday. Daw-son drove a truck into Plant No. 2 of the Ford Company in the early morning of the day in question and drove out with over 80 cartons of carburetors and oil fuel pumps.
Stated to have helped Dawson load, Mindorff, an employe of the Ford Company at the time, told the court that he did so when Dawson requested it. He denied that he had any knowledge he was loading goods to be stolen.
MINDORFF'S EVIDENCE Under questioning by C. P. Hope,K.C., acting Crown attorney, Mindorff admitted he had been employed in the axle assembling department and loading was not one of his duties but he said he frequently helped to do so.
Five crane operators, Gordon Cooper, James Black, William Bartlett, Leo Chalut, and Alfred W. Peters, all gave evidence that Mindorff had helped them in loading at various times.
John Langman, Sarnia, owner of the transport firm for whom Dawson was driving at the time of his arrest, said he had always found the accused hon-est in handling collections for the company. A previous employer, Alton B. Wright of Strathroy, gave similar evidence.

Addressing Haiti's Security Crisis: Global Collaborative Efforts
Urgent Response to Alarming Atrocities
In a unified and determined effort aimed at addressing the escalating security crisis in Haiti, Barbara Feinstein, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Caribbean Affairs and Haiti at the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs spearheaded a crucial discussion on this pressing matter. The assembly underscored the imperative of prompt action to effectively counteract the ongoing atrocities perpetrated by gangs. These egregious acts span from indiscriminate attacks on vulnerable individuals to the rampant occurrences of kidnappings and extortion. A Multifaceted Approach to Stability Highlighting the gravity of the situation, Feinstein underscored the United States multifaceted approach to restoring stability in Haiti. This comprehensive strategy encompasses not only bolstering security forces but also extending humanitarian, economic, and health aid to safeguard essential aspects of livelihood. The United States remains committed to fostering inclusive political dialogue and supporting Haitian-led initiatives, such as the CARICOM Eminent Persons Group, to establish a roadmap for political consensus and pave the way for upcoming elections.
Strengthening Haitian National Police
Central to the security initiative is the strengthening of the Haitian National Police (HNP). The United States has allocated substantial resources – more than $120 million over the past two years – to enhance the HNP's capabilities in countering gang violence. This includes equipping specialized officers for complex anti-gang operations, collaborating with community policing units, and providing advisory support to HNP leadership. Feinstein emphasized the necessity for additional international assistance to further amplify HNP's effectiveness. Kenya's Crucial Leadership Role A pivotal development emerged as Kenya expressed its affirmative consideration to spearhead a multinational force to aid Haitian security efforts. The Kenyan Government's commitment includes offering 1,000 police officers to serve in this force. This groundbreaking decision is poised to infuse fresh momentum into the security landscape by augmenting personnel dedicated to safeguarding vital infrastructure sites. This, in turn, would enable the Haitian National Police to intensify their focus on combatting rampant gang activities.
Path Forward and Collaborative Endeavors
Feinstein detailed the forthcoming steps in this collaborative endeavor. The Kenyan Government plans to carry out an on-ground assessment in Haiti in the coming weeks. They will engage with various stakeholders within the country and at the United Nations. Once they secure domestic approval, Kenya will cooperate with the United Nations to obtain authorization for the multinational force. The United States is prepared to introduce a resolution for this goal, collaborating with Security Council partners to swiftly secure approval. Feinstein also pointed out the forthcoming United Nations report on security options for Haiti, expected by August 15th. This report is anticipated to influence the force's direction.
Rallying International Support
Feinstein's address concluded with a call to action for the broader international community. She urged other nations to contribute crucial resources, including funding, equipment, and personnel, to bolster the security initiative. This unified approach underscores the determination to alleviate Haiti's security concerns and signals optimism for constructive collaboration with Haitian stakeholders, the diaspora, Congress, and global partners in this vital mission.

For the last three years, Alberta police services have seen a new trend in illegal firearms: a surge in guns built using privately manufactured or smuggled parts that make them untraceable. These are often referred to as ghost guns.
"It's becoming a massive problem for Canadian law enforcement and the public," said Sgt. Richard Kurina is an officer with the Lethbridge Police Service who monitors southern Alberta and its border crossings as an RCMP National Weapons Enforcement Support Team.
Canadian firearms laws regulate receivers, where information like serial numbers is stored. These privately made guns exclude regulatory information, causing challenges for investigations, prosecutions, and proactive operations. "Our crime gun picture has probably doubled or tripled," said Acting Staff Sgt. Ben Lawson of the Calgary Police Service's firearms investigative unit.
Calgary police seized 31 PMFs last year, including 16 3D-printed guns. That's about six percent of all crime guns in 2022, with one each in 2021 and 2020.
The force also recently conducted two operations targeting 3D-printed firearms. One of those investigations seized three printers and five completed handguns, resulting in 66 charges against two men running the gun printing and trafficking operation in Calgary.
Edmonton police recovered seven 3D-printed firearms in 2022. The force only just started keeping statistics for them in southern Alberta said he was aware of a handful of cases last year involving 3D-printing operations last year, including in small rural communities.
That part of the province has also been seeing more Polymer80s—mostly assembled gun kits from the United States that people can finish with unregulated parts.
"In the last several years, we've seen an uptick or increased presence of privately manufactured firearms," he said, "and this is going to grow exponentially."
These untraceable guns, assembled in garages, basements, and warehouses or smuggled from the U.S., present new challenges for law enforcement. And police investigations are working to stay on pace with the developments, and I think we're on the beginning of that trend," said Doug King, a criminology professor at Mount Royal University.
"It's the age-old issue of how law enforcement and criminal law keep up with technological changes. Violence has in Alberta between 2017 and 2021; firearms-related offenses jumped 66 percent, according to Statistics Canada crime data.
The Calgary Police Service said 126 shootings occurred in the city last year. That's 33 percent higher than in 2021 and 45 percent higher than the five-year average of 500 crime guns seized in 2022. The police were unable to trace the origins of half of them.
Alberta's government is increasing support to tackle gun crime, including $4.4 million in this year's provincial budget to create firearms investigative and gang suppression units in the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams, an umbrella of multiple levels of law enforcement where there is no place for illegal activity in Alberta must be consequences for criminal activity," reads an email response from the minister of justice's spokesperson, Ethan Lecavalier-Kidney.
"A proactive increase of resources to the Alberta Chief Firearms Office is part of our strategy to make our communities fund law enforcement with files like illegal firearms manufacturing, 3D printing, and more resources for Crown prosecutors.
But law enforcement teams say it'll take more cooperation between forces and better follow-through on prosecutions to keep pace with the people manufacturing these guns. "One hurdle that I find is the follow-through on the prosecution of the offenses," Kurina said.
This is the way to tackle PMFs. Instead of leaving it up to individual police agencies to do it, who are absolutely strapped right now in terms of workload, I think the federal government needs to step up and fund these kinds of interagency investigation units," he said.
Calgary police are working with the chief firearms officer to get information about the people and things involved in these crimes to assist in investigations are also trying to make sure police are providing the information they need to see charges through to convictions.
As law enforcement adjusts, Kurina says this will be a test for police because this type of activity is really at its core what the criminal use of firearms is in Canada and Alberta."

Payday 3 Now Has a Steam Page
Finally, a new criminal dawn has arrived. The makers of the cooperative heist-failure simulator Payday 3, which has a Steam page today, are Overkill Software. Additionally, there is a teaser in which four enigmatic characters watch as fireworks explode over the New York cityscape. One of the few details we are aware of regarding the newest instalment in the series, Payday 3, which Koch Media, the series' publisher, has picked up for its Prime Matter label, is that it will take place in New York. The original four members of the Payday Gang, Dallas, Chains, Wolf, and Hoxton, will be back following Hoxton's brief replacement by his brother Houston in Payday 2. "Step out of retirement back into the life of crime in the shoes of the Payday Gang," says the store page, "the envy of their peers and the nightmare of law-enforcement wherever they go. Several years after the crew's reign of terror over Washington DC has ended, they assemble once again to deal with the threat that roused them out of early retirement." During a 10th anniversary stream in 2021, Overkill explained that it wants Payday 3's New York to be "enormous" and "living", with locations that change significantly once the alarms go off and the shooting begins. It also plans to modernize things with high-tech surveillance, new gadgets, and media commentary on the gang's criminal exploits. Apparently cryptocurrency and tech giants will play a part in the plot. The deal between Starbreeze, who published Payday 2, and new owners Koch Media includes up to 18 months of post-release support. That's not surprising, given that a return to Payday 2 and steady stream of DLC helped keep Starbreeze alive following the disastrous launch of Overkill's The Walking Dead, a CFO convicted of insider trading, reconstruction to avoid bankruptcy, and laying off 60 employees. As acting CEO Tobias Sjögren said in a triumphant financial report covering the end of 2020(opens in new tab), "Our Payday franchise and 'games as a service model' really showed their muscles during the year with several successful releases of content for Payday 2. By late December, Payday 2 had become the biggest game community on Steam, with 7.1 million members. We have executed two capital raises during the year and paid off a large proportion of our debts, strengthened our financial position and thus enabling the continued successful development of Payday 3 in 2021—all key steps in putting Starbreeze back on the map as an industry leader." Basically, don't be too shocked when Payday 3 turns out to be a fully live-service game, possibly with some kind of battle pass. Read the full article

Let’s talk about Sexual Frustration as Dr M’s real motive
Ok this a big one but if there’s one thing i love about my degree is watching movies and reading books and then just saying that the reason the characters act the way they do is because they’re gay. I 100% think Dr Michael falls into that category.
Y’all have changed my mind about ConnEr like i’ve genuinely garnered so much hate for him at this point that it even extends to Sly. He is truly ConnEr’s son in some regards: in the way he treats his teammates and how he operates, or how his thrill-seeking stunts come at the expense of others’ frustration or worry. If we’re going by Dr Mauricio’s dialogue (with literally everyone), all these negative aspects must’ve come from ConnEr surely. Although we never meet ConnEr, Sly, as a reflection, is an indication of what he was like.
With that being established, let’s use Sly and Bentley’s dynamic in Sly 3 as a parallel to ConnEr and Dr Matthew: ConnEr is a dashing suave young man who assembles a band of thieves to help with his heists but little does he know one of them has a crush on him. In Matthew’s eyes, ConnEr is a form of masculinity he could never have. Just like Arpeggio, he’s a puny nerd with limited physical prowess. He relies on brains rather than brawn and that’s not appreciated in society. On the subject of society, I’m assuming at the time ConnEr’s gang was operating, Matthew coming out wouldn’t really be an option.
Dr Mario’s limited physical abilities and outcast status (which probably led him to a life of crime in the first place) leads to a romanticized “invasion of the bodysnatchers” moment, where he wants ConnEr in order to satisfy his frustrations. It’s territorial in its psychological root. If ConnEr was his boo he would do anything for him, especially the tasks that seem impossible to someone with Mario’s body. It’s the “nerd wants jock” archetype. Taking it a step further, Mario probably liked being neglected by ConnEr, in a submissive bottom way (even though, deep down, he always wanted to top ConnEr to really drive home the territorial aspect. I mean... why else would he spend so many years of his life trying to drill the Cooper hole Vault). ahem Yes, Mario enjoyed playing second fiddle to ConnEr because as long as ConnEr was the strong alpha male who led his team, it kept the dream real. Why else would Mario stay in the team? He longed for the heists that had him work closely with ConnEr, and ConnEr being the aloof idiot that he was never even considered the possibility that Mario wanted him.
It’s not until Sly’s mom entered the scene that Dr Mahershala really started losing his shit. She was the monkeywrench (lol) to his gay plans because she had him face the facts: that ConnEr never gave a shit about his teammates, that the crush was one-sided, and, worst of all, that ConnEr now belonged to someone else. The metaphorical ownership ceased and Mahershala must’ve been pissed to say the least. His pent-up sexual desires led to anger no doubt and that must’ve been the point in the timeline when the gang started breaking up. I’d even suggest that once ConnEr started dating Sly’s mom and things started getting serious between them, Mahershala came out to him and received backlash. Or, if we’re dead-set on painting ConnEr as the bad guy, he knocked up Sly’s mom and couldn’t get out of marriage, which drove Mahershala over the edge. If Mahershala confessed his true feelings in a desperate last attempt, ConnEr would have 100% shun him, rejected him and shamed him. That encounter could be the last encounter before ConnEr chose the domestic life, leaving Mahershala and McSweeney behind. Those two didn’t really mesh so everyone went their separate ways and Mahershala was so angry at how things turned out that his eternal grudge was born. Acquiring the deed to Kaine Island was like how some people steal underwear as a souvenir.
Flash-forward to the current timeline when he sees Sly trying to break into the Vault. To Dr Murphy, Sly is the living reminder that the love of his life chose someone else over him, the child of a man he loved and a woman he loathed. So, the immediate response is undoubtedly: destroy. Murphy sees himself in Bentley and tries to warn him without revealing too much because the pain of being rejected by ConnEr for being gay is too much to relive. The trauma that must’ve caused probably led to him not coming out to anyone else ever. He doesn’t want Bentley to repeat the past but Bentley’s doing his own thing or whatever the fuck. Then, when Murphy goes head-to-head with Murray, it’s clear that his grudge had him try to gain ConnEr’s physical prowess to fulfill those aforementioned desires. If ConnEr couldn’t satiate his weak body, he’d work out and become as tough as him. I mean, by the time Dr Murphy faces Sly and the Gang, he’s all three members combined: the brains he always had, McSweeney’s strength and ConnEr’s alpha masculinity. But even after acquiring that form of masculinity, he realised that in the end what he really wanted was ConnEr himself and nothing could ever fill that void.
Depending on the angle you see it (but also considering that now in my 3rd year of uni i’ve become an expert in slapping labels on fictional characters), we could even say that Bentley’s inner turmoil following A Flight of Fancy is pretty fruity. He’s not jealous that Penelope wants Sly instead of him, he’s mad that Penelope is out to steal his man. All he wants is for his shell’s holes to be filled ok i’m done now

thinking about this more so im here to ramble. below the cut bc it's long and also bc i might ficify it so if you dont want spoilers for future fics shoo or whatever
sly 1: Honor Among Thieves
Honor Among Thieves is literally just the first game but slightly to the left like the vaults and safes all those contain the parts of the map to Kain Island (which was obviously stolen from connor cooper 10 years before the beginning of the game)
i personally think that the levels within the games should be reversed as well meaning you fight Dr. M first and then Don Octavio last
however i still think we should add murray to the party first (during Dr. M's fight which would then take place in italy??????? for the final boss to take place on Kain Island still you need to fuck some things around so i might just do a total roleswap between Dr. M and Don Octavio, with the evil Dr. O being determined to steal the cooper family vault and M being a forgotten opera(?) singer)
hey if the Black Baron assisted in murdering slys dad how do you think he feels about Penelope joining the team? i figure it's a parallel of how he feels about the panda king joining the team in the modern timeline
ok so the fiendish five is just Octavio, the Mask, Penelope, Tsao, and M, implying that Captain LeFwee is just simply not real which fascinates me and also throws a wrench in my plans
order of episodes: An Opera of Fear/Honor Among Theives w/ Dr. M, Cold Reunion w/ Tsao, ...The Plane One w/ Penelope, Rumble Down Under w/Mask of Dark Earth, and then Honor Among Theives/Opera of Fear w/ Octavio
party members include Murray, Panda King, Penelope, the Guru, and then we just squeeze dimitri in there somewhere
hot take. what if instead of the fiendish five it was like the Sinister Six and lefwee was a part of it
wait isnt the Sinister six the marvel villains
oh well anyway theres six villains in the "first" game now
ok so New Order is An Opera of Fear/Honor Among Theives w/ Dr. M, uhhh whatever the pirate one is w/LeFwee, Cold Reunion w/ Tsao, ...The Plane One w/ Penelope, Rumble Down Under w/Mask of Dark Earth, and then Honor Among Theives/Opera of Fear w/ Octavio
and then the team is Murray, Dimitri, Panda King, Penelope, and then the Guru
speaking of are you still assembling a team in reversed!Honor Among Thieves and if so does that team stay with you throughout the series. i hope yes but that's bc i like found family
sly 2: Band of Thieves (still)
band of thieves is so fun to think about. without the thievius raccoonus sly has very little idea of anything that his family has done just that they're thieves. so when he discovers that a set of Mysterious Parts somehow connected to his legacy are being displayed in a museum somewhere he goes after them
WHOOPS the Klaww Gang (still the villains of reversed!Band of Thieves, just in opposite order, minus neyla who remains the same i think) has stolen them already
hey wait if Dimitri teams up with the CG during the "first" game does this mean he betrays them for the Klaww Gang in this one. i like that idea we're running with it
reversed!band of thieves goes as so: The Black Chateau, with main villain Arpeggio; Menace In The North, Eh? followed by He Who Tames the Iron Horse, both starring Jean Bison; A Tangled Web and Jailbreak!, both starring The Contessa; The Predator Awakes and A Starry-Eyed Encounter, both starring Rajan; and then finally Anatomy of Disaster starring BOOM secret plottwist leader of the Klaww Gang dimitri
ok wait maybe neyla wont stay the same we can't have TWO betrayals that's not how this works /hj
maybe neyla will betray them during He Who Tames and then the CG hear the leader of the Klaww Gang is purple and tbeyre like FUCK IT MUST BE NEYLA meanwhile Dimitri is sitting there like yup mhm definitely neyla
maybe that's why hes in jail in Honor Among Thieves maybe it's for Klaww gang shenanigans and maybe neyla was working in his absence
i still think it should be Clock-La at the end but then again maybe not. no matter what it's not Clockwerk himself and the cooper gang dont actually destroy him (obviously) they just destroy whoever was possessing him
bentley is still paralyzed
hey if sly 3 comes first and still has them making the team, does this mean they first meet murray in Italy? were they still childhood friends? why did he leave the team?
sly 3: the thievius raccoonus
and then we get to Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus bc sly meets Jim McSweeney and learns that there was a COOPER BOOK! and of course sly wants the cooper book. so he reassembles the team (except they might not have disassembled havent decided that yet) and they go searching
i dont think the panda king will be evil in reversed!Thievius Raccoonus i think he should stay a good guy
the thievius raccoonus is supposedly being held by clockwerk (who will still be the final boss i think. hes too cool not to be) only when they get to his lair (replacing the tutorial level in paris) they figure out that the thievius raccoonus was STOLEN by somebody who ALSO WANTED TO BE EVIL
order: Fire in the Sky with panda kingn't, Viscous Voodoo with Mz. Ruby, Sunset Snake Eyes with Muggshot, Tides of Terror with Raleigh, and then The Cold Heart of Hate with Clockwerk
idk who the panda kings evil replacement will be. possibly Tsao again?????? muggshot gets to be a villain twice why cant he
yknow I might actually switch Clockwerk and Raleigh's roles????? raleigh gets to be an evil metal bird man and clockwerk is a fuckin nerd frog????? just to keep the switches nice and tidy. raleigh would be a diff kind of bird tho not an owl
anyway if clockwerk remains clockwerk then the final level will be effectively The Cold Heart of Hate but in paris, therefore making the location of the og tutorial the location of the reversed!final boss
possibly a play on the Late to the Party AU of og!sly 2 where the CG is fighting through a mind-controlled Paris to get to clockwerk....
misc
i think the "game" names have t0 reflect the real names so honor among thieves gets to have a sly cooper and the thievius raccoonus esc thing
Sly Cooper and the Kain Island or something
band of thieves can stay the same
Sly Cooper and the Map of Kain sounds like a crossover with like god of war or somethin
Sly Cooper and Thieves' Honor?
the question is do we make reversed!sly 3 simply Sly 3: The Theivius Raccoonus or do we give it a pun. i cannot use thick as thieves for legal reasons. maybe something like Once A Thief (always a thief) yknow
ok it's almost 3am im gonna go to bed now
Sly1 AU where the whole timeline is flipped.
You are after the vault and the Fearsome Five (Don Octavio, Mask of Dark Earth -maybe possessing The Guru?-, Penelope, General Tsao, and Dr. M) are hellbent on stopping the Cooper Gang from finding all the torn up pieces of the map containing the location to Cain (Cane?) Island.
#can we talk about don octavios name being a pun bc its octave and hes the singer#sodalites sclooper#sodalite scribbles#ideas#reversed timeline AU#ill get a catchier name for it later#3-2-1 au? bc its like the 3rd game then the 2nd then the 1st???#ill tjink about it
