Ah, the Mark Twain novel Tom Sawyer?
As I recall Huckleberry Finn does not play a part in that episode so his whereabouts are not relevant or even mentioned. He wasn't in the cave; unlike the unfortunate native (Injun Joe, wasn't he?).
Tom fought with the new boy, Huckleberry Finn, because Huck insulted Tom's crush, Becky Thatcher. Tom felt the need to stand up for Becky's honor and defend her against Huck's disrespect.
Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, Becky Thatcher, Aunt Polly, and Joe Harper.
Tom and Becky get lost in the caves after wandering off from the rest of the group during a school picnic. They enter the caves for an adventure and end up getting separated from the rest of the group, leading to them getting lost deep inside the cave complex.
Tom is trying to protect Huck by taking the blame for their tardiness. He cares for Huck and doesn't want him to get in trouble. Tom also enjoys the mischievous nature of their conversations, so admitting that they were talking adds an element of excitement to the situation.
In Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," Becky Thatcher and Tom Sawyer are brought back together when they find themselves lost in the caves. Together, they work to find their way out, which strengthens their bond and rekindles their friendship.
The rising action of "Tom Sawyer" includes Tom tricking his friends into whitewashing the fence for him, witnessing Injun Joe's murder of Dr. Robinson, and getting lost in the caves with Becky Thatcher. These events build tension and lead to the climax of the story.
No, Becky and Tom did not get married.
The town discovered that Tom and Becky were missing
Tom Huck was born in 1971.
Jim: just as he was about to be executed, the townspeople realize that Miss Watson freed him (in her will) when she died 2 months earlier. Huck: the dead man found on the island earlier in the book was Huck's father; he takes his money and goes on adventures out west. Tom: his leg was shot, so that eventually recovers; he then settles down eventually.
Tom Sawyer's best friend other than Huck is Joe Harper. Joe is a classmate of Tom's and is an important character in the novel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain.
