Abby thought for longer.

               “That message at the start though...”

               “The Guide?”

               “Yes. It said to stay on the path. I’m going to

            try that. They can ignore the chimp swiping

            their water supply. They’ve still got another

            container and small bottles. Perhaps that will

            be enough.”

               Jay wasn’t sure.

               “It’s too risky.”

               “It might be even more risky not to follow

            The Guide,” said Abby. “They might find a

            new water supply – a stream or something.

            They’ll be able to refill their small bottles that

            way. Yes, I’ll take a chance on that.”

               Jay didn’t like the idea of taking a chance

            with anything. He liked to feel sure about

            things.
