Archer woke up from the darkness in a cold dank hut. He lay there trying to figure out if he was dreaming or where the heck he was. He didn�t have answers for these questions, but he did know that his head was pounding and his back felt very stiff. He lay there trying to figure things out, then all of a sudden, he remembers�

He remembers running�He remembers the tree branches swatting him in the face as he ran into trees and bushes�.Then he remembers the sensation of free fall�.The he remembers Eliza�

Archer immediately sits up with a shout, which caught the attention of a girl he did not know.

�Oh hey, you finally woke up. I was beginning to worry you weren�t going to pull through�� said the stranger.

�ELIZA!! IS SHE OK?!?!?,� yelled Archer.

�Oh don�t worry Archer, she�s fine. She wasn�t as beat up as you were, and she has you to thank for that, you held on to her so tight that you took most of the force of the fall with you back, luckily you didn�t get seriously injured.�

�Wait, wait, wait, who the heck are you and how do you know my name?�

�Oh I�m sorry how rude of me, my name is Aislinn, tribe leader of the Ferals. Currently you�re in our tribe base, located about 10 miles from your camp. Eliza told me everything when she came through. Don�t worry about anything, just relax and get some sleep. We fellow forest tribes have to look out for each other you know.� Said Aislinn.

Archer thought to himself. He didn�t know that there was a tribe near their base in the forest. He knew of other tribes in the forest but he didn�t know bout this one. Well his tribe never ventured that far from their base. He was amazed that He and Eliza traveled that far. The tribe must be worried about them. He has to let them know what�s going on.

Aislinn reading his face perfectly said, �Oh don�t worry bout your tribe. Eliza sent her hawk, Conner, and informed them of the situation. In fact a couple of your best hunters are on their way now. Timm and Jenna if I�m not mistaken��

Ok well that�s settled, thought Archer but�, �Where�s Eliza?� asked Archer

Just then Eliza comes walking in the hut with a bucket of fresh water, which of course she dropped when she saw that Archer was up.

�Archie!!!�

She Ran toward Archer and gave him a hug, which surprised him, Eliza�s not one to do these kind of things. His thinking was cut short, because Eliza had a strong hold off him, and he was in pain.

�Ow, ow, not so hard �liza. I�m dying here you know.�

�Oh sorry. Just happy your ok, I was worrying bout you, you dolt!�

Eliza sat herself next to Archer, and began examining his head wound. Everything seems to be in good condition she thought.

�Oh nice of you to call me a dolt, thank you very much. Ow that hurts��

�Sorry. Aislinn and her tribe saved us, Arch. They found us in the forest passed out. If it wasn�t for her we would be..� Eliza didn�t finish the sentence; she just kept on examining his wounds.

�Thank you very much Aislinn, we owe you our lives. We are forever in your debt, OW!, Is there anything we can do, OW!, just say it�.� Said Arch.

�Oh don�t be silly, like I said before, us forest tribes have to look out for each other. But there is one thing I ask of you.�

Eliza whispered in Archer�s ear, �They were after that thing too, Archie�

�You see Eliza told me of your expert marksmanship with your bow, Archer, and it would be a great help to us if you would accompany��

Archer finished her sentence, �I would be glad to help you find that beast.�

�Thank you Archer. We will leave when you are healthy enough, so rest up��

�I�m fine, besides my best hunters should be here soon, we can head out tomorrow if you want, Aislinn.�

�Ok then, I will inform my tribe of our plan. You two have a good night.�

Aislinn left the hut. Eliza was done examining his wounds, the two looked at each other and smiled and embraced.

�I was so worried bout you, Archie.�

�Me too, �liza. Me too.� Responded Archie. They both got up and walked out of the hut, to watch Aislinn inform her tribe of the current situation.
