Chapter 6
Next they heard a scream. It was coming from the colony. Then they saw a fire start blazing. They got up and ran toward Jamestown and heard yelling and gunshots. Michael knew what was happening. Indians were attacking.
"We have to help!" Yelled Helen shaking him. Michael looked at her and nodded and they ran into town. When they got there almost everything was on fire. They saw dead bodies of English men and Indians everywhere. At that moment he saw an Indian riding a horse bear back and taking a shot at one of the men.
"Since when do they have guns?!" Michael yelled. Then they saw a huge man run up to them. It was Jacob.
"Helen, go back to the house! Go inside and lock the doors! Quickly!" he yelled as Helen ran to the house. It was then when Michael realized that Mary and Lilly were alone. He ran as fast as he could toward the house and on the way a large Indian man threw him to the ground. Michael tried to push him off of him as he tried to scalp him alive and ended up cutting his cheek.
Michael then took the knife and stabbed the man in the stomach, pushed him off of him, ran to the house and burst the door open. When he looked inside he saw a tall Indian man with black eyes who looked like he could be their chief. He was holding Mary. Lily was at the other side of the room with another Indian man.
"Michael! Mary's dead! They killed her!" Lilly sobbed. Michael looked up at the man who was holding lifeless Mary. Then the man took out a knife and scalped her, dropping her dead body to the floor.
Michael stood shocked unable to move and Lilly screamed. Then the other man started taking Lilly outside of the house and right before Michael was about to run after her he felt a sharp pain in his head, fell down and everything went black.
When he woke up the massacre was over and Lilly was gone.
