"Wake up! Wake up! We have an emergency here!" called Charlie Brown as he, Thomas and Linus hurried back to the camp, where inside the fort, Peppermint Patty yawned. "What's the emergency here, Chuck?"
"It's Smith!" replied Thomas as he and the boys rushed inside. "They got him!"
"Who got him?" asked Marcie.
"The savages!" answered Linus.
"Savages?!" repeated a shocked Sally.
"They captured him, dragged him off!" panted Charlie Brown.
"Where'd they take him?" asked Ben.
"They headed North!" replied Thomas.
"How many were there?" asked Lon.
"I don't know, at least a dozen." answered Thomas.
"Those dirty dogs." said Pig-Pen. "And I'm not evern referring to myself."
As they talked, Wiggins and Lucy, who overheard the commotion, hurried from their tents to Ratcliffe's, where he quick pulled them inside.
"It's perfect, friends!" he whispered, while blowing out Wiggins's lit candle. "I couldn't have planned this better myself. The gold is as good as mine!"
"We've gotta save him!" said Linus. "He'd do the same for any of us."
"You're right." agreed Schroeder. "We've gotta do something!"
"And so we shall!" said Ratcliffe, who walked up to the crew. "I told you those savages couldn't be trusted. Smith tried to befriend them...and look what they've done to him! But now, I say it's time to rescue our courageous comrade. At daybreak, we attack!"
The crew roared with agreement as Wiggins and Lucy helped put Ratcliffe's armor on him.
RATCLIFFE:
What can you expect
From filthy little heathens
Here's what you get when races are diverse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin as I said and worse
ENGLISHMEN & PEANUTS GANG:
They're savages, savages
RATCLIFFE:
Barely even human
ENGLISHMEN & PEANUTS GANG:
Savages, savages
RATCLIFFE:
Drive them to our shore
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war
ENGLISHMEN:
They're savages, savages
PEANUTS GANG:
Dirty rotten devils
RATCLIFFE, ENGLISHMEN & PEANUTS GANG:
Now we sound the drums of war
At the same time, Powhatan and his warriors were preparing for the upcoming war as John watched from inside his hut.
POWHATAN:
This is what we feared
The paleface is a demon
The only thing they feel at all is greed
KEKATA:
Beneath that milky hide
There's emptiness inside
WARRIORS:
I wonder if they even bleed
They're savages! Savages!
POWHATAN & WARRIORS:
Barely even human
WARRIORS:
Savages, savages
POWHATAN:
Killers at the core
KEKATA:
They're different from us
Which means they can't be trusted
POWHATAN:
We must sound the drums of war
WARRIORS:
They're savages, savages
First, we deal with this one
Then, we sound the drums of war
ALL:
Savages, savages
"Let's give them a fight they'll never forget!" exclaimed Lucy as she handed out clubs to her friends.
ALL:
Savages, savages
RATCLIFFE:
Now it's up to you, men
ALL:
Savages, savages
Barely even human
Now we sound the drums of war
While both sides were preparing for battle, Pocahontas told Grandmother Willow everything.
"They're going to kill him at sunrise, Grandmother Willow." she said.
"You have to stop them." urged Grandmother Willow.
But Pocahontas just said. "I can't."
"Child, remember your dream?" assured Grandmother Willow.
"I was wrong, Grandmother Willow. I followed the wrong path." said Pocahontas. "I feel so lost."
Upon hearing the word "lost," Meeko climbed back up to the top of Grandmother Willow's tree while Snoopy, Woodstock, Flit and Percy comforted Pocahontas.
Then, he slid down one of the vines and handed Pocahontas...
"The compass?"
As she looked closer at it, the needle started to spin.
"Spinning arrow."
"It's the arrow from your dream!" exclaimed Grandmother Willow.
"I was right!" Pocahontas said to her animal friends. "It was pointing to him."
A gentle wind started to blow as the needle spun faster.
Pocahontas, then, turned and saw that it was already...
"Sunrise!"
"It's not too late, child." assured Grandmother Willow. "Let the spirits of the earth guide you!"
Fast as the blowing wind, the needle spun faster and faster...then stopped, pointing at the sunrise.
"You know your path, child." said Grandmother Willow. "Now follow it!"
And Pocahontas did. But she had to hurry...
