"Do you really expect me to believe you?! Why would I?" Silver River snapped at Rufus. "Yes, as a matter of fact I do!" He growled back. "You see, these two are my best friends.. Skin color doesn't matter to us!" Rufus said, calming himself. Silver River narrowed her eyes. "Right.." Wolf Claw said. Clearly he was looking for trouble. Silver River glared at him. "I thought I told you to shut the fuck up!" She spat at him. "Go hunting or something!" She ordered. Wolf Claw dipped his head respectively. "Sorry." He grumbled. "I'll just go hunting then.. Come, Tall Beaver. Let's go." Wolf Claw said, beckoning his friend, Tall Beaver. As the two of them grabbed their hunting weapons and walked out of camp. "Ugh! My brother is such a pain in the ass sometimes!" Silver River said, her brown eyes flashing with anger. "Now, where were we? Oh right, state your case, slave." She said, turning to Rufus. "First of all, my name is Rufus, not 'slave'. Secondly, I am telling you the truth! And if they're going to die, then so am I." Rufus said, looking up to face the Chieftess. His gaze locked with hers. "The way you look at me.. I can tell something is important. Maybe even true." Silver River said, circling Rufus. Rufus's eyes glowed with hope. "Yeah..? What might that be?" He asked, hoping for an answer like "you're free" or something else good. Well, he was wrong. Terribly wrong. "I want you to lead the Pine Mountain Tribe with me, as my husband. You seem so courageous, and we need a strong and brave leader. We shall rule over this forest together." Silver River said. Lucy and Wyatt exchanged shocked glances. Well, that escalated quickly.. Wyatt thought. Rufus's eyes widened with shock. "I would like to rule with you, but I'm afraid I cannot. These are my friends, and we belong somewhere else - not here.. And I have a family of my own, Silver River.." He explained calmly. Silver River's eyes flashed with hurt. She surprisingly nodded in agreement. "Very well. Even though I feel as if I'm in love with you and your courage Rufus, I understand what you mean." "I'm sorry, Silver River, but this is the way it must be." He said. She yelled something in her native language. Lucy and Wyatt's hands were untied and they were allowed to stand up. "Please, stay here if you must. I respect your courage, Rufus. And-" Silver River said, but was cut off by her brother, Wolf Claw, and his friend, Tall Beaver. They came running in full speed towards them. Panting heavily, Wolf Claw said something in his language. Silver River's eyes widened in horror and shock. "The hell you mean you were ambushed?!" She asked through narrowed eyes. "By who?!" She demanded. "You see, we were ambushed! By the Shadow Aspen Tribe. They said that the man and woman that warned us about those three told them that we were planning to attack them and try to take their land. Like we'd ever do that!" Wolf Claw replied, clearly pissed at the world. "Assholes! Traitors!" Said Silver River. "We trusted them! We have to fight!" A voice called from the crowd. Murmurs of agreement rose through the crowd. They all began chanting in their language, and Warriors let out their battle cries as they grabbed their weapons and leaped onto their horses. They were going to war.

"I am so sorry I nearly killed you! I feel like shit.. And I should have never doubted your honor.." Silver River apologized to the Time Team. Lucy stood up and brushed herself off. "It's okay. We understand that you were only trying to protect your people." Lucy told her. Wyatt walked over to join Lucy. "We are all overprotective at times." He said with a grin, his arm around Lucy, who was blushing. "Well, you're right about that, Wyatt!" Lucy told him. Silver River chuckled. "Anyways, what are we going to do? Is there anyway we can help? Because we have some experience with horses, so we can fight by your side.." Lucy asked, worried about America's future (In which I am REALLY concerned about right now XD). "Dammit Lucy! No! I refuse to let you go into battle." Wyatt said, making Lucy face him. Lucy just shook her head. "You can't protect me forever, Wyatt. I love you, but I must help these people; and the same goes for you and Rufus.." She told him. Wyatt pulled her into a tight hug. "I never want to lose you, my love. I want to be together. Forever." He said, his head buried in her hair. Lucy pulled away. "So, what do we do, Silver River?" She asked the Chieftess. Silver River looked over to Lucy. Then she pointed to three horses, that surprisingly had saddles on them. "You three, grab your weapons and hop on those horses. We must fight against these opposing forces." She said. Lucy nodded in agreement. "Okay, sounds good. We promise to help you." Rufus said. And now here the trio was, getting on horses in order to help the Native Americans out of a horrible situation. Wyatt looked over at Lucy, concern and worry flooding through him. Once everyone was ready, they galloped off into the distance toward the battle. And the only way to settle everything was to fight.I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! The next part might be Emma and Flynn, but I'm not sure.. Throughout the story, the POV's will probably change. Farvel until next time!
