NATIVE AMERICAN
The warriors are here!
[Pocahontas arrives.]
NAKOMA
Pocahontas, are you crazy? What were you doing with that—
KOCOUM
There you are!
POCAHONTAS
Kocoum!
KOCOUM
Look at them. Now we have enough warriors to destroy those white demons!
POWHATAN
Now that we are joined by our brothers, we will defeat this enemy.
[Pocahontas runs to her father.]
POCAHONTAS
Father, I need to speak with you.
POWHATAN
Not now, my daughter. The council is gathering.
POCAHONTAS
We don’t have to fight them! There must be a better way.
Talon: You must listen to us Powhatan
Thundara: We are telling the truth
POWHATAN
Sometimes our paths are chosen for us.
POCAHONTAS
But maybe we should try talking to them.
POWHATAN
They do not want to talk.
POCAHONTAS
But if one of them did want to talk, you would listen to him, wouldn’t you?
POWHATAN
Pocahontas—
POCAHONTAS
Wouldn’t you?
POWHATAN
Of course I would. But it is not that simple. Nothing is simple anymore.
Talon: We better tell the others
[Cut to: Exterior, Jamestown, sunset.]
JOHN SMITH
Easy, Thomas. It’s me.
THOMAS
Oh, John! I could’ve killed you!
JOHN SMITH
Not aiming like that, you couldn’t. Keep both eyes open when you shoot. You’ll see twice as well.
BEN
Smith! There ya are!
LON
We were looking all over for you.
RATCLIFFE
Smith! Where have you been?
JOHN SMITH
I was out scouting the terrain, sir.
RATCLIFFE
Excellent. Then you must know the Indians’ whereabouts. We’ll need that information for the battle.
JOHN SMITH
What battle?
RATCLIFFE
We will eliminate these savages once and for all.
JOHN SMITH
No! You can’t do that!
RATCLIFFE
Oh? Can’t I?
JOHN SMITH
Look, we don’t have to fight them.
THOMAS
John, what’s gotten into you?
JOHN SMITH
I met one of them.
BEN
You what?
THOMAS
A savage?
JOHN SMITH
They’re not savages, they can help us. They know the land, they know how to navigate the rivers. And, look! It’s food!
LON
What is it?
JOHN SMITH
It’s better than hardtack and gruel, that’s for sure.
WIGGINS
I like gruel.
RATCLIFFE
They don’t want to feed us, you ninnies! They want to kill us! All of us! They’ve got our gold, and they’ll do anything to keep it!
JOHN SMITH
But there is no gold!
BEN
No… gold?
RATCLIFFE
And I suppose your little Indian friend told you this.
JOHN SMITH
Yes.
RATCLIFFE
Lies! Lies, all of it! Murderous thieves, there’s no room for their kind in civilised society.
JOHN SMITH
But this is their land!
RATCLIFFE
This is my land! I make the laws here. And I say anyone so much as looks at an Indian without killing him on sight, will be tried for treason and hanged.
[Cut to: Exterior, Powhatan village, night.]
NAKOMA
Pocahontas!
POCAHONTAS
Nakoma!
NAKOMA
Don’t go out there. I lied for you once, don’t ask me to do it again.
POCAHONTAS
I have to do this.
NAKOMA
He’s one of them!
POCAHONTAS
You don’t know him.
Atticus: He is different
Article: Talon it's almost time for the baby
Talon: Stay here in the village
Thundara: Come on guys
NAKOMA
You go out there, you’ll be turning your back on your own people.
POCAHONTAS
I’m trying to help my people.
Shade: Yeah
NAKOMA
Pocahontas, please… You’re my best friend, I don’t want you to get hurt.
POCAHONTAS
I won’t, I know what I’m doing.
NAKOMA
Pocahontas, no!
[Cut to: Exterior, Jamestown settlement, night.]
BEN
… Ratcliffe wouldn’t take us halfway around the world for nothing.
LON
But what if Smith is right? What if there is no gold?
ENGLISHMAN
If you ask me, Ratcliffe’s been lying to us since we left London.
BEN
Listen to you, you bunch of idiots. Those savages didn’t attack us for nothing, they’re hiding something.
LON
If they do have the gold, I reckon we’ll have to fight them.
[Thomas follows John to the edge of the settlement.]
THOMAS
[Gasp.]
RATCLIFFE
Follow him.
THOMAS
Yes, Governor.
RATCLIFFE
I want to know where he’s sneaking off to.
THOMAS
Yes, sir.
RATCLIFFE
And if you happen to see any Indians, shoot them. Oh, and Thomas? You’ve been a slipshod sailor and a poor excuse for a soldier. Don’t disappoint me again.
[Cut to: Interior, Kocoum’s tent.]
NAKOMA
Kocoum?
KOCOUM
What is it?
NAKOMA
It’s the adventure team
KOCOUM
What’s wrong? Are they all right?
NAKOMA
I think she’s in trouble.
[Cut to: Exterior, Grandmother Willow’s glen, night.]
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
The earth is trembling, child. What’s happened?
POCAHONTAS
The warriors are here!
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas!
Thundara: It's the truth
POCAHONTAS
John!
JOHN SMITH
Listen to me. My men are planning to attack your people. You’ve got to warn them.
POCAHONTAS
Maybe it’s not too late to stop this. You have to come with me and talk to my father.
Talon: Powhatan won't even listen to me
Thundara: This is bad guys
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas, talking isn’t going to do any good. I already tried talking to my men but everything about this land has them spooked.
[Percy enters.]
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
That’s the strangest creature I’ve ever seen!
[Percy chases Meeko.]
JOHN SMITH
Percy! Easy, Percy, come here!
POCAHONTAS
Meeko, come back!
JOHN SMITH
You see what I mean? Once two sides want to fight, nothing can stop them.
POCAHONTAS
Come, come here!
JOHN SMITH
It’s all right, he’s a friend. Bad, bad dog! Sit!
POCAHONTAS
What are you doing? Meeko!
JOHN SMITH
Percy, get back here! Stop that!
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
All right, that’s enough! It’s enough to make your sap boil. Now then, there’s something I want to show you. Look. [Touches a vine to the river surface.]
POCAHONTAS
The ripples.
JOHN SMITH
What about them?
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
So small at first, then look how they grow. But someone has to start them.
Talon: She is right
Atticus: Yeah
JOHN SMITH
They’re not going to listen to us.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Young man, sometimes the right path is not the easiest one. Don’t you see, only when the fighting stops can you can be together.
JOHN SMITH
All right, let’s go talk to your father.
[Pocahontas and John embrace, then kiss. Kocoum and Thomas are watching.]
KOCOUM
[War cry.]
POCAHONTAS
[Gasp.]
[Kocoum attacks John.Thundara tried to stop him but he was stabbed in the shoulder in pain]
POCAHONTAS
Kocoum, no! Kocoum! Leave him alone! [Gasps.] Kocoum, stop!
Talon: Cut it out Kocoum!!!
[Thomas loads his gun.]
THOMAS (v.o.)
Both eyes open!
[Thomas shoots. Kocoum falls.]
POCAHONTAS
[Gasp.]
JOHN SMITH
Thomas!
THOMAS
Is he…?
POCAHONTAS
You killed him!
THOMAS
I thought that—
POCAHONTAS
Get away from him!
Talon: It will be alright
Atticus: Quick we must not be seen here
Talon: Back to the village
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas, it won’t help! He was only—
POCAHONTAS
He killed him!
NATIVE AMERICAN WARRIORS
[Shouting.]
JOHN SMITH
Thomas, get out of here. Get out of here!
[Thomas exits. John is captured.]
[Cut to: Exterior, Powhatan village, night.]
POWHATAN
Who did this?
NATIVE AMERICAN WARRIOR
Pocahontas was out in the woods. Kocoum went to find her and this white man attacked them.
POWHATAN
Your weapons are strong. But now our anger is stronger. At sunrise he will be the first to die!
POCAHONTAS
But father!
POWHATAN
I told you to stay in the village. You disobeyed me. You have shamed your father!
POCAHONTAS
I was only trying to help.
POWHATAN
Because of your foolishness, Kocoum is dead! Take him away. [Exits.]
Article: What happened to Thundara
Talon: Kocoum accidently stabbed him deep
POCAHONTAS
Kocoum was just coming to protect me.
Shade: I think I know who the snitch is
Talon: Who
Shade: Nakoma
NAKOMA
Pocahontas, I sent Kocoum after you. I was worried about you. I thought I was doing the right thing.
POCAHONTAS
All of this happened because of me… And now I’ll never see John Smith again.
NAKOMA
Come with me.
[Cut to: Exterior, the prison tent, Powhatan village.]
NAKOMA
Pocahontas wants to look into the eyes of the man who killed Kocoum.
NATIVE AMERICAN WARRIOR
Be quick.
[Pocahontas enters tent.]
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas!
POCAHONTAS
I’m so sorry.
JOHN SMITH
For what, this? I’ve gotten out of worse scrapes than this. Can’t think of any right now, but…
POCAHONTAS
It would’ve been better if we’d never met, none of this would’ve happened.
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas, look at me. I’d rather die tomorrow than live a hundred years without knowing you.
If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
If I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I’d find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I’m so grateful to you
I’d have lived my whole life through
Lost forever, if I never knew you
POCAHONTAS
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we’d make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they’d leave us were these whispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right
For if I never knew you
JOHN SMITH
There’s no moment I regret
POCAHONTAS
If I never knew this love
JOHN SMITH
Since the moment that we met
POCAHONTAS
I would have no inkling of
JOHN SMITH
If our time has gone too fast
POCAHONTAS
How precious life can be
JOHN SMITH
I’ve lived at last
[Nakoma looks into tent.]
NAKOMA
Pocahontas?
POCAHONTAS
I can’t leave you.
JOHN SMITH
You never will. No matter what happens to me, I’ll always be with you. Forever.
[Pocahontas exits.]
JOHN SMITH
And I’m so grateful to you
I’d have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
[Cut to: Exterior, night.]
POCAHONTAS
Never knowing why
[Images of John and Pocahontas in the river.]
POCAHONTAS & JOHN SMITH
Lost forever
If I never knew you
Talon: How is he Article
Article: Thundara dislodged his shoulder
Talon: Is there anything we can do
Article: I'm putting his arm in a sling
Atticus: I cleaned the wound
Talon: I have a bad feeling about what happened
