Kino and Juana knew that they had to get away from the town
but someone had made a hole in the bottom of their canoe, so they couldn't go by sea. When they went back to their house they found it in flames. That day, they hid in Kino's brother's house. When night came, Juana and Kino started to walk towards the mountains. They carried the baby with them. Kino was still determined to sell the pearl and kept making plans about the future. During the day, they found a place to hide. They were resting when they saw that three hunters were following them. They hid and stayed very quiet until the hunters had gone past. Then they ran to the mountains. High in the mountains, they found a stream and a waterfall. They drank water and then decided to hide in one of the caves under the waterfall.
