Lionwing adventures of Pocahontas part 5

As the team was watching Thundara's ear's went up
Thundara: Oh no Talon we better go
Talon: Of course
JOHN SMITH
What is it?
POCAHONTAS
The drums. They mean trouble. I shouldn’t be here.
JOHN SMITH
I want to see you again.
POCAHONTAS
I can’t.
JOHN SMITH
Please, don’t leave.
POCAHONTAS
I’m sorry. I have to go.
Atticus: There must be trouble
[Cut to: Exterior, Jamestown, dark rainy day.]
BEN
All right! This one’s ready to hoist!
LON
Two on each side. Ready now, push! Watch it, it’s slipping!
BEN
Come on, lads, it’s only a little picket fence.
LON
Steady, steady!
BEN
There you go!
THOMAS
That’ll keep everything out, eh, John? Something wrong, John?
JOHN SMITH
What?
THOMAS
You’ve been awfully quiet the last few days.
LON
Oh, he’s just mad that he missed all the action.
THOMAS
Ah, don’t worry, John. You’ll get your chance to deal with the Indians.
LON
Yeah, we’ll take care of them like that we did last time, eh mates?
We shot ourselves an injun
Or maybe two or three
BEN
All right, you howling nutter, get to work!
LON
Come on, Ben. It’s just a little fun.
BEN
Oh sure, we’re having loads of fun. Right, look at us. No gold, no food, while Ratcliffe sits up in his tent all day happy as a clam.
[Cut to: Interior, Ratcliffe’s tent.]
RATCLIFFE
I’m doomed! I should be wallowing in riches right now and I haven’t seen so much as a speck! It’s got to be here somewhere. Where could it be? I’ve mined the forests and the hills and swamps, and nothing! Why can’t I find it? What am I overlooking?
WIGGINS
Ah!
RATCLIFFE
[Gasp.]
WIGGINS
I… I… I made it myself.
RATCLIFFE
Take that silly… Of course, the Indians! Wiggins, why do you think those insolent heathens attacked us?
WIGGINS
Because we invaded their land and cut down their trees and dug up their earth?
RATCLIFFE
It’s the gold! They have it and they don’t want us to take it from them. Well, I’ll just have to take it by force then, won’t I?
[Cut to: Exterior, Jamestown settlement.]
RATCLIFFE
You there! Where’s Captain Smith?
LON
Well, he’s… gone!
BEN
Aye, your singing must have scared him off.
RATCLIFFE
Well, then go get him, for heaven’s sake!
LON
What if we run into the Indians?
RATCLIFFE
That’s what guns are for, now arm yourselves and get moving!
[Cut to: Exterior, Powhatan corn field, day.]
POWHATAN
Pocahontas! You should be inside the village.
Talon: Article are you to worry me and the baby
Atticus: Your five months due Article
Article: Don't worry you two
POCAHONTAS
We’ll be all right.
NAKOMA
We’re gathering food for when the warriors arrive.
POWHATAN
Don’t go far. Now is not the time to be running off.
Shade: He means it
POCAHONTAS
Yes, father.
POWHATAN
When I see you wear that necklace, you look just like your mother.
POCAHONTAS
I miss her.
POWHATAN
But she is still with us. Whenever the wind blows through the trees, I feel her presence. Our people looked to her for wisdom and strength. Someday, they will look to you as well.
POCAHONTAS
I would be honoured by that.
POWHATAN
You shouldn’t be out here alone. I’ll send for Kocoum. [Exits.]
NAKOMA
All right, what is it?
POCAHONTAS
What?
NAKOMA
You’re hiding something.
POCAHONTAS
I’m not hiding anything.
Shade: You have been acting strangely Pocahontas
Talon: Don't worry Shade
NAKOMA
Pocahontas, you can tell me, I promise I won’t tell anyone —
[John Smith enters.]
NAKOMA
[Gasp.] Pocahontas, look! It’s one of them! I’m going to get— [Pocahontas covers her mouth.]
POCAHONTAS
What are you doing here?
NAKOMA
Mmm?!
JOHN SMITH
I had to see you again.
Atticus: He will get us busted
NAKOMA
Mmm!
KOCOUM
Pocahontas!
NAKOMA
Mmm!
KOCOUM
Pocahontas!
POCAHONTAS
Please, don’t say anything. Quick, this way.
NAKOMA
But—
[Pocahontas and John exit.]
KOCOUM
Nakoma, where is Pocahontas?
NAKOMA
I… I haven’t seen her.
KOCOUM
Pocahontas can’t keep running off. It’s dangerous out there. Tell her that. She listens to you.
NAKOMA
Huh, sure she does.
[Cut to: Exterior, Grandmother Willow’s glen, day.]
JOHN SMITH
This place is incredible! And to think, we came all this way just to dig it up for gold.
Thundara: That was close
POCAHONTAS
Gold?
JOHN SMITH
Hey, Meeko.
POCAHONTAS
What’s gold?
JOHN SMITH
You know, it’s… It’s yellow, comes out of the ground, it’s really valuable.
POCAHONTAS
Oh, here, we’ve lots of it. [Takes out an ear of corn.] Gold.
JOHN SMITH
No… Gold is this. [Takes out a gold coin.]
POCAHONTAS
Hmm, there’s nothing like that around here.
JOHN SMITH
No gold?
POCAHONTAS
Not that I’ve seen.
JOHN SMITH
[Laughs.] All this way for nothing. Those boys are in for a big surprise.
POCAHONTAS
Will they leave?
JOHN SMITH
Some of them might.
POCAHONTAS
Will you go home?
JOHN SMITH
Well, it’s not like I have much of a home to go back to. I’ve never really belonged anywhere.
POCAHONTAS
You could belong here.
WIND SPIRIT
Ay ay ay na ay ay na…
JOHN SMITH
What was that?
POCAHONTAS
Did you see something?
JOHN SMITH
No… No, I just, uh… I… I didn’t see anything. Did I?
POCAHONTAS
Look again.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Let it break upon you
Like a wave upon the sand
Hello, John Smith.
JOHN SMITH
Pocahontas, the tree is talking to me.
POCAHONTAS
Then you should talk back.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Don’t be frightened, young man. My bark is worse than my bite.
POCAHONTAS
Say something.
JOHN SMITH
What do you say to a tree?
POCAHONTAS
Anything you want.
JOHN SMITH
So, uh…
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Come closer, John Smith. He has a good soul. And he’s handsome, too.
JOHN SMITH
Oh, I like her.
POCAHONTAS
I knew you would.
BEN (off-screen)
Smith! Smith! Where are ya, mate?
Talon: Hide
JOHN SMITH
We can’t let them see us.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Quick, over here.
LON
This place gives me the creeps. Savages could be hiding anywhere.
BEN
Aye, well, if you spot one, don’t ask questions. Just shoot.
[Grandmother Willow trips them.]
Talon: *whispered* that's got to hurt
BEN & LON
Oh!
BEN
Watch your feet, you big oaf!
LON
It wasn’t me, it was the tree.
BEN
Oh of course, the tree just felt like lifting its roots and… Let’s get out of here. Run!
LON
But what about Smith?
BEN
He’s a big lad, he can take care of himself.
[Lon and Ben exit.]
JOHN SMITH
I’m glad you’re on our side.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
There’s still some snap in these old vines.
JOHN SMITH
I better get back before they send the whole camp out after me.
POCAHONTAS
When will I see you again?
JOHN SMITH
Meet me tonight, right here. [Exits.]
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Well, I haven’t had this much excitement in 200 years.
POCAHONTAS
What am I doing? I shouldn’t be seeing him again. I mean, I want to see him again—
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Who wouldn’t? I want to see him again.
POCAHONTAS
But still, something inside is telling me it’s the right thing.
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Perhaps it’s your dream.
Thundara: Maybe it is
POCAHONTAS
My dream? Do you think he’s the one the spinning arrow was pointing to?
GRANDMOTHER WILLOW
Mm-hmm
