Reluctantly the Pioneers went back to their

            leader.

               “It’s obvious which way we should go!” Zak

            shouted. “The shortest way! We’re nearly

            there!”

               Ella took a deep breath.

               “No,” she said. “The Guide is warning us

            about the short-cut. I think it’s saying we may

            never get there if we go that way.”

               The Pioneers thought about this. But Zak

            was impatient.

               “I’m sick and tired of this follow-the-guide

            rubbish,” he shouted. “Just about all of us

            have gone off the path at some point. And

            what happened to us? Nothing! We’re all still

            here. Okay, you may have had a bit of trouble

            getting Flick back. But you got her back.
