FRIENDSHIP AND BETRAYAL!
Well in Huck Finn this theme exists.  We see bonds forming with Huck and Jim as they continue their journey.  Before Jim came into the picture, Huck continued life on his own.  He is used to surviving alone and shows that he has tremendous survival skills, particularly when he fakes his own death.  But when the two companions meet on Jackson's Island, Huck shows a feeling of relief.  He realizes he is not alone in his adventure and is glad to have Jim by his side.  This is a prominent time in the book where Huck and Jim establish a friendly relationship.  As Jim and Huck continue their Journey Huck plays a childish joke on Jim.  He finds a dead snake and puts it in Jim's sleeping bag, thinking it'll just give him a good scare.  But Jim evidently gets bitten by a snake who comes to settle in Jim's sleeping bag because it see's its dead companion.  This is an example of betrayal and shows Huck is still immature.  But feeling sorry for Jim, Huck dresses up as a women and goes into town for information rather than Jim.  This show's Huck feels compassion towards Jim and regret for his foolish deed.  This also shows Huck is willing to risk himself and go out of his way to see to Jim's well being.  These qualities demonstrate the feelings Huck feels towards Jim and how he values the friendship and bond they share together.  Huck and Jim continue their adventure, despite the small bit of betrayal that Jim is unaware of.
