Chapter 3: RV Shopping
Later that day, the group was down at an RV purchasing lot, looking for an RV to use in the trip. Because Gantu was worried that he wouldn't be able to go with the rest of the group because of his size, he was going to be strapped onto the roof of the RV they chose so he would be able to go with them and not fall off. Currently, they were looking at an orange and brown RV, and Tommy, Chuckie, and Woody were relaxing in three recliners that were lined up next to each other while enjoying the RV's air-conditioning unit.
"Sweet!" Tommy said.
Meanwhile, Phil, Lil, and Darwin were exploring the rest of the RV. Darwin looked inside the refrigerator's freezer, while Phil and Lil looked around at other things.
"Guys, the bathroom has a spa tub!" Kimi called out excitedly from the RV bathroom.
Woody pressed the button on the A/C unit to make it cooler.
"You know, I'm finally starting to understand the pioneer spirit, like in Woody's Roundup." Woody said.
Phil turned around and looked up at a selection of buttons.
"I wonder what this does." Phil said.
He pressed one of the buttons, and the area that Tommy, Chuckie, and Woody were in expanded out, almost hitting Gantu, who was looking at the RV outside with Peter, Didi, and Charlotte. Cabinets then opened up, revealing different machinery to work a TV, a bed slid down out of a wall, a fireplace in the bathroom lit up, a microwave turned on, and a hatch in the arm of Chuckie's recliner opened up and a soda popped out and flew over to Phil, who caught it with his left hand.
"Whoa!" Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil, Kimi, Woody, and Darwin said in amazement.
Meanwhile, Dil, Angelica, and Buzz were towards the front of the RV. Dil was checking out the RV cameras, while Angelica and Buzz relaxed. He saw Susie, Charlotte, and Merida looking at the front of the RV, then Peter, Didi, Charlotte, and Gantu looking at the side of the RV, and then Betty, Kira, and Lucy looking at the back of the RV.
"Check it out! We can see where we're going, and where we've been at the same time! I've been training myself to do that for a whole year!" Dil said excitedly.
He then attempted to look both in front of himself and behind himself at the same time, but all he did in accomplishing was becoming cross-eyed, which he wasn't able to undo.
"Uh, Angelica? Buzz?" Dil asked.
Angelica and Buzz both reached over and slapped him on the side of the head, returning his eyes to normal.
"Thanks." Dil said.
"No problem, Dil." Buzz said. He then frowned and said "You know, Angelica, I'm kind of surprised you wanted to come on this trip, since Susie is getting so much national attention, and your basically still... nobody.".
Angelica frowned.
"Please, Lightyear. Susie is my friend, and I'd feel terrible if something awful prevented her from performing in the parade." Angelica said.
She then noticed that Susie, Charlotte, and Merida were no longer looking at the front of the RV. She smirked and shoved open the RV door, thinking it was Susie, but when she pulled back the door, she found Charlotte laying on the ground in a dazed heap. Angelica gasped as the others ran over to see what was going on.
"But I thought you were..." Angelica started to say.
She looked over and noticed Peter and Susie glaring at her. She sighed and slumped down.
"Never mind." Angelica said.
Betty helped Charlotte up.
"Okay, show's over. Let's get rolling. We have an early start tomorrow, and I mean early." Betty said.
