You look up at Starr again. Starr is still looking at you! You had better say something!
"It's important!"
"Yeah?" Starr still looks pretty upset! "Important to who?"
"Me!"
What? Starr has a strange expression on her face? It seems like she's thinking about what you said!
Starr nods and says "Alright. I just don't like my partner keeping secrets from me. You didn't steal it from someone, did you?"
What? Starr is asking if you stole the cutécaptor? You don't know what to say!
Starr opens her mouth but suddenly Auroara says "If Volito has enough energy, we should keep moving."
Starr glances at Auroara and nods. "You're right." Starr starts to walk back up the hill away from the pond toward the car and looks back over her shoulder at you. "We can talk about... whatever that is later."
Everyone else starts walking back toward the car. You put the cutécaptor back in your jacket pocket as run up the hill after them as quickly as you can!
You climb into the car next to Tamounda and Starr drives it back down the road toward Leadport. After a while you can see <span class="mu-r">a huge metal bridge</span> in the distance! It looks like there are a lot of strange human buildings around here.
What? You just noticed Starr is looking around and the car is slowing down? She stops the car near a human man and rolls down her window and shouts "Hey, where can we get some gas around here?"
"Out-of-towners, huh? First time in Leadport?" The human man leans down and looks at you and the other mons! "You girls mon trainers?"
You can't help <span class="mu-r">your cheeks</span> turning red!
Starr glances at you and Auroara and says "Uh, yeah."
The human man stands back up and says "If all you're looking for is gas, there's a <span class="mu-r">gas station</span> right over there, but security gets pretty tight after you cross the bridge so don't plan on taking all those mons any further into the city unless you have <span class="mu-r">a mon permit</span>."
"A mon permit?" Starr glances at you and then looks back at the man and asks "How much is that?"
"<span class="mu-r">100 coins per mon</span>. No permit, no mons."
"Alright, thanks." Starr rolls her window back up and drives toward the gas station. "You heard him. Looks like we're gonna have to drive the entire way to Bronze Valley."
When you get to the gas station Starr reaches into her pocket and pulls out a sack of coins and says "I'll pay for this tank of gas, and you can pay for the next one. Deal?"
You're nodding your head!
After Starr buys a tank of gas she starts driving back away from the bridge but after you go past the pond she turns the car and starts driving toward the sun.
