Flo continued eating her chips and drinking her water. Once both the bag and water bottle are empty, she put them in a plastic bag that was balled up at her feet.
"I always knew these plastic bags from grocery stores would come in handy in the car," she said, and she got out a napkin from her cooler bag to wipe her fingers clean. "We can't leave any pieces of trash lying around."
About an hour had passed, and Tony saw that his car is running low on gas.
"We're low on gas," said Tony. "We still have enough to get to the nearest gas station."

Balance looked at Melanie and smiled. "Shane and Blake are pretty much going to the Aquarium to look at fish, Shawn and I are planning to have a brother and sisterly bond." She replied to her. "Training can really be hard work, so what better way than to have a vacation."

"Yeah I guess, we just go for walks on the beach, work and than the gym with a dinner together in the evening" Melanie said to Cecilia, Shawn and Balance as Raine nodded and smiled.

"I guess we have the whole day planned out now when we arrive at Lake Tahoe." Cecilia grinned to both Balance and Melanie. "Though, I think I could ditch my sandals and walk barefoot. What about you Balance?" she then asked, playfully nudging her.
Shadow then turned around and looked out the window, seeing all the places they were passing by. Normally, being on the road for a long time would make him sleepy, but he was excited for this trip, he had to stay awake, not to mention the car floor mats felt nice beneath his bare feet. To keep himself from becoming bored, he decided to start a conversation with Nemo. "So Nemo, when we arrive at Lake Tahoe, what's the first thing you want to do that comes to mind?" he asked.

Saturn burrowed herself in her hoodie, finding herself getting drowsy. She placed her Coke can in the cupholder next to the carseats, opening her bag of chips and taking a pawful, munching away as she tried to stay awake to watch her movie. Appette checked the GPS once more, and then their gas meter, noticing that it was on the lower side.
"We might need to stop for gas soon, Saff." Appette stated, and Saturn responded with a slight nod. "Hey," Appette observed, adjusting her rearview, "maybe if we stop, we can meet up with the other pups that we're going on the road trip with! That sounds pretty fun, doesn't it?" Saturn shrugged slightly, shifting her paws and struggling to keep herself from falling asleep. Appette shrugged, slightly disappointed that her observations were being fallen on deaf ears, and continued to keep going.

About a couple of minutes later, Tony spotted a nearby gas station.
"Here we are," he said, and he parked his car next to a set of pumps after reaching the gas station.
"It's good that we're stopping here for a moment," Flo said as she opened the door on her side of the car and got out, "and it's not just to get gas, but it's also to get up and get out so we can stretch, say hello to our friends, or even use the restroom."
As Flo and Tony were both out of the car, they closed their doors, and Tony picked out a pump and used it to fill his car up with gas.

Balance nodded in agreement. "That we do." She agreed she heard Cecilia ask a question and felt her playfully nudge her(Balance). "I don't mind ditching my shoes to walk barefoot across the soft batches of grass feeling the earth between my toes." She replied to Cecilia.
"That's interesting, Melanie, I do like working out in the gym." Shawn agreed with Melanie.

" That's cool Shawn, so how far are we from Lake Tahoe ? " Melanie asked everyone.
" Don't know text Flo or Tony and ask them." Raine said to Melanie.
So she did that and then she said to Cecilia and Balance " hey these are our kids Amy the one who looks like me, Stephanie who is the one with the glasses, the big one is Chloe she is a gym freak and Eric who loves soccer, so there they are and 4 more on the way in 12 months ".
Raine said to Shawn " are you enjoying the movie? Watch this attack Thunderbolt does here".

(Belchic asked to still be skipped, so this means that it's been over 24 hours without Shadow's turn. Now, it's Paws's turn.)

The silver Honda stopped off at the same gas station that Tony's Camry was parked. Appette got out, picking out a pump to fill their car with. Saturn got out as well, pulling off her hoodie to reveal her red T-shirt underneath, and stretched her arms and legs, her tail wagging. "It feels good to take a break for a little bit!" she said, parting her jaws in a huge yawn. She spotted Flo and Tony by the Camry and waved over to them, smiling.

Flo got out her phone again as soon as she heard that she got another message. It was from Melanie, and she started texting the following response:
"At this point, it's about a drive of a little less than three hours from here to Lake Tahoe. Right now, we've stopped to get some gas for Tony's car. You and the rest of the group should wait for us at the gas station, and we'll all get back on the road together once we're done."
Once the message was sent, Flo put her phone away and went over to meet Saturn and Appette.
"Hi, Saturn!" she said. "Hi, Appette!"

"Yes, I'm enjoying it." Shawn replied to Raine, He saw Thunderbolt's attack. "Awesome."
