Zorro gave Jaime a science lesson. Showing him the ingredients for the Indian remedies and ensuring Jaime could identify them correctly, he then broadened the lesson to include tracking skills. He dared the child to track Zorro back to wherever he had ridden from.
Jaime glanced at him. "You want me to find your hideout?"
"You won't be that clever, de la Vega, I assure you."
Zorro rode behind his son, watching him track the hoof-prints in the dust.
The moment Jaime looked past the obvious blurring of the tracks and focussed on the true tracks, Zorro felt slightly threatened.
