The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Chapter 12-22

Right after Huck got caught by the woman whom he thought he could trick, he ran quickly away and returned to where his little raft was. Then, he heard the bell saying that it was already past midnight, so then he panicked and he woke up Jim and they quickly got left and escaped the small island. When they arrived at Jackson Island, they found out that there were groups of men who are there and they knew that there was also somebody else because they saw Huck's fire camp but they don't know who. So the men were searching while Huck and Jim were hiding. While they were hiding, they saw a guy name Bill who got killed by the gang. They hid in the cave, around some hills, and behind the river rocks because they are afraid of the men which might find them, then kill them because they saw what the witnessed.

After a week had passed by, the gang left and they were safe. They found a big mess that the gang left behind so they took over the important things like some wood, lamps, blankets, clothes, and also a raft. Then they made a plan that they would go to the Ohio River and then sail north and after that, they would get out of all this mess and be free again. Huck and Jim could start a new life there, so they kept on sailing north. They would only sail in the night because they were scared that someone might see them. So during the day, they would either go find some food or sleep the whole day because they needed energy for the night. Sometimes, they experienced thick fog and they couldn't continue so they would take a cat nap, waited for the fog to disappear, then they would continue.

Most of the time when the two were sailing, they got nothing to do so they would talk about the future when they arrived at the free state and become free men. Huck said that he would go work and be a good man while Jim said that he will work very hard and become very rich then he will buy his own wife and house and they will have 2 children and it will be a happy ending. After some time, they saw a house with people inside so they went inside that house and found a man. Inside, there were many people and he made a new friend named Buck and he convinced Huck to live with them. So Huck lived there for about two weeks but after that, Huck found out that the gang that he once met was also there so he tried to avoid them and while Buck and Huck were walking one day, Buck got shot and he died. Huck was very depressed and scared so he ran away with Jim again.

While they ran away, they met many people and most of them were finding a black slave that escaped because there were a price for his head, so now they were escaping all the time and now most of the people were suspecting Jim as the runaway nigger so they tried to catch Jim but a duke came to save them. After that they were serving the duke because they need to payback. But Huck and Jim were fine because they were safe at last. And the duke sent them to the king and they also serve the king. They got to advertise things for the king like the mail boys. They get to make poster and promote plays for the king so that the people could go and see the play. But the people need to pay too.
