"Wake up! Shake a leg!" Ben called out while Thomas, Charlie Brown & Linus marveled at the New World.

"It's...incredible!" exclaimed Charlie Brown.

"And it's all ours." added Linus.

"I've never seen anything like it." said Thomas.

"It can look like Ratcliffe's knickers, for all I care!" said Ben.

"Yeah, just as long as we get off this stinking boat." added Peppermint Patty as she and Marcie lowered the rope ladder, which John climbed down, saying. "Well, let's go, then. We didn't come all this way just to look at it."


As John and his selected crew, which included Charlie Brown, Linus, Thomas, Peppermint Patty, Marcie, Ben & Lon and Snoopy & Woodstock, rowed past the towering trees and towards the shore, Pocahontas, along with Meeko and Flit, watched them land in a safe distance.

Soon afterwards, they all pulled the Susan Constant closer to the shore.

"Keep it taut, lads. Keep it taut!" said Ben

"Steady, steady." said Marcie.

"OK, that's good enough!" said Peppermint Patty.

"All right now, tie her off." instructed Lon.

Far in the back, Charlie Brown held out the end of the rope

"Hey, John, will you tie up this...end?" he asked, then realized that John wasn't there.

Linus and Thomas took notice as well and found John climbing up a tall pine tree.

"John? What are you doing up there?" Thomas called out.

"Getting a better look!" John called back as he climbed up the top.

Not knowing that Pocahontas was watching him from behind a bush, John stared out into the lush wilderness.

Meanwhile, Meeko crept over to where he was, despite Pocahontas's best efforts to grab a hold of him.

Flit tried to stop Meeko by holding onto his tail, only to be flung back towards the bush, while Meeko bumped into Snoopy, who, along with Woodstock, followed John up the tree.

"Hey!" exlcaimed John as he quick pulled out his knife from inside his boot, only to see Meeko on top of Snoopy, chuckling nervously.

From where she was hiding, Pocahontas gasped, thinking he was going to harm her little raccoon friend.

But John just knelt down and stuck his knife back into his boot.

"Well," he said. "You're a strange-looking fellow. You hungry?"

He pulled out something from his satchel and held it out to Meeko. "Here you go. It's a biscuit. It's food. Well, sort of."

Meeko stared at John for a moment, then snatched the biscuit from his hand and munched on it.

"You like it, eh?" said John, who pulled out another biscuit from his satchel. "Well, try eating it for four months straight."

Inside her bush, Pocahontas smiled with relief. This man wasn't going to hurt Meeko. In fact, he seemed kind.

Meeko looked back and pointed at his biscuit.

"You got a friend back there?" asked John, who, along with Snoopy and Woodstock, walked towards the bush, where Pocahontas leaned as far as she could.

Just before they could take a look inside, Flit burst out of the bush.

"Hey, what, what, watch out!" exclaimed John as he tried to swat the little hummingbird away, with a little help from Snoopy and Woodstock, not realizing Meeko was helping himself to the biscuits that fell out of this satchel. "No…get that…look out!"

"John, you better get down here!" Thomas called out. "The Governor's coming ashore!"

"All right, all right, I'm leaving." John said to Flit, then climbed down the tree with Snoopy and Woodstock in tow while Meeko helped himself to the biscuit crumbs.

But that wasn't enough to please him. He wanted more biscuits.


Back at the village, the tribe gathered together to discuss the strangers that had come to their land.

"Did you see their skin?" asked a villager. "Pale and sickly."

"They have hair on their faces like dogs." added another.

"My brothers," said Powhatan as he held out his hand, silencing the room. "We must learn more about these visitors. Kekata, what do you see?"

Kekata stood up, chanted and poured a handful of powder into the fire, which spewed a cloud of smoke that took shape.

"These are not men like us..." he examined. "...but strange beasts with bodies that shine like the sun and weapons that spout fire and thunder.

"They prowl the earth like ravenous wolves consuming everything in their path." added Kekata as the smoke changed into the shape of wolves, who loomed all over the room, startling everyone but Kocoum, who said to...

"Great Powhatan, I will lead our warriors to the river and attack. We will destroy these invaders the way we destroyed the Massawomecks."

As the smoke wolf loomed towards Powhatan brushed it away with his hand, while staring at Kocoum, to whom he replied. "In that battle, Kocoum, we knew how to fight our enemy. But these pale visitors are strange to us. Take some men to the river to observe them. Let us hope they do not intend to stay."
