Dawn Breaks

Dawn comes for the unlucky teens

     As dawn arose the next morning the three awoke in astonishment.  Indians real life Indians were staring them in the face.  They made Nick stand up before the Chief he spoke his native language to Nick.  Nick didn't understand what he was saying.  Nick didn't answer. 
     The chief grabbed Nick by the head and dragged him off, the other Indians did the same to Will and Clay. 
     All of them were in a tepee.  The chief offered them food.  The three took and ate the food and ate it. 
     "What are you doing here the Chief", the Chief asked.
     The three kids were shell shocked, they sat there silent. He asked again.  This time
     Nick answered, We're three teenagers that wanted to go camping where no one has gone camping before.  As he went to continue the Chief rose his hand.  Nick was silent.   
The Chief turned to talk with the elders.  They debated whether they should accept the tree teenagers or if they should kill them.  After discussing the topic for about twenty minuets the Chief turned to the kids and told them to follow the elders into the tepee. 
     Twenty minuets later an elder came and pulled Clay out of the tepee.  He took clay to the Chief, so he could be interrogated.  After all of the interrogations were done.  The Chief pulled them together and told them the history of their ancestors. 
     As the teens learned of the history of the Indians and the Canyon, they just stared at each other.  The Chief got up and showed them around the village.  He told the three teens how they have survived this long without being detected.  He told the kids about a couple of other teens that found this place twenty years ago.  The kids were dead silent. 
     "What happened to the kids" Will asked. 
     "That's not important, you'll find out when the time comes" the Chief replied. 
     Nick contemplated whether he should run or not.  The Chief nodded at one of the elders.  The elder walked into a tepee and gathered some of the hunters and warriors. 
     The Chief gave the kids a drink as peace offering.  The kids breathed a sigh of relief and took the drink.  They drank it slowly.  After they got done drinking one by one the kids hit the ground. 
     "Take them to the cave and come get me when they get up." The Chief demanded.
