Author's Notes:
I recently watched Tom and Huck because one of my favorite actors was in it (Jonathan Taylor Thomas). I really do wish that there would be more fanfics in this category but anyway...this is going to be a book of oneshots including AUs! ;)
1. Jagged Rocks
(based on that scene where Tom nearly drowned but Huck saved him - I don't remember all the correct dialogue from the movie so I'm improvising.)
Tom Sawyer was drowning. After the raft had hit the jagged rock in the middle of the river, it split in two. Destroyed the whole thing practically. He had been thrown into the water and accidentally swallowed some of the water. It was dark and eerie in the water. It was confusing too. Hadn't he just said, "Nothing can stop us now!" to his friends. That was obvious that something COULD stop them from running from home. They always ran away from home at night and always came back. Everyone knew...including Aunt Polly. Aunt Polly was going to kill him...if he survived.
He thrashed in the water, trying to surface but he couldn't. He tried to hold his breath but in a matter of seconds he could not. The wild, rebellious, mischievous boy was going to die.
For the last time, or so he thought, Thomas Sawyer closed his eyes and felt the water drag him down deeper and deeper into the bed of the river.
Minutes later for who knows long, Tom found himself hacking up water. Mud and water was on his face. He was ALIVE! His two friends were completely soaked, begging him to wake up.
"Tom? You okay?" Joe asked as the teen sat up. Tom nodded and got to his feet feeling a little weird at the thought of still being alive.
"I wonder who saved you," Deep down in Tom, he knew it had been his friend.
Huckleberry Finn was back in Hannibal. Tom's heart leaped at the thought of his friend coming back.
Now... All he had to do was face his Aunt Polly and his cousin, Sid. Great.
Do you have any suggestions for me to write? Review please! Hopefully the next one will be much much longer! :) ~VRT
