Many years later, the two young teenagers have developed a very real home, but hormones and feelings between the two strain their friendship, until Richard, who is still very determined to reach San Francisco, is let down by Emmeline when a ship passes by the island and she does not light the signal fire. Emmeline and Richard, now alone and very scared, move location and rebuild their island home. After maybe a month or two, Paddy gets very drunk off a barrel of rum found on the island when they first arrive, and drowns in the middle of the night. After some time, the three come across an uncharted paradise, where Paddy quickly teaches the children fishing, hunting and building. Paddy, Richard and Emmeline find themselves with no food and no water stuck in the middle of nowhere. In the chaos following, the lifeboats are separated. Rushed to a lifeboat with Paddy Button, the two children escape while their father (and uncle) are on another lifeboat. On a journey to San Francisco, Richard, his father and cousin Emmeline find themselves on a ship about to explode.
