Ron W and the others were still hanging out in the forest, far from the settlement but not too far. Suddenly they saw Thomas running towards the settlement. Concerned, they followed him but missed the conversation that took place between the settlers. This is what they heard instead:
RATCLIFFE:
What can you expect
From filthy little heathens?
Their whole disgusting race is like a curse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin as I said
And worse
SETTLERS:
They're savages! Savages!
Kirsten almost went inside to argue but Ron W stopped her.
"We can't just walk in and change their minds." Ron W whispered.
"Drat." Kirsten muttered, realizing he was right.
RATCLIFFE:
Barely even human
SETTLERS:
Savages! Savages!
RATCLIFFE:
Drive them from our shore!
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
Now we sound the drums of war!
SETTLERS:
They're savages! Savages!
Dirty redskin devils!
Now we sound the drums of war!
"Come on we have to warn the others!" Ron W ordered.
They started running toward the others. Camera flew to the tribes' village to see how the tribe was reacting…
At the village...
Sensing something wrong, Hermione led the others inside the village. She and the others hid behind a hut as the tribe gathered around the fire-pit in the middle of the village.
POWHATAN:
This is what we feared
The pale face is a demon
The only thing they can feel at all is greed
Some of the Superwolf Friends almost went over there to argue but Hermione stopped them.
"Easy, they're only talking about the settlers, not our friends!" She whispered.
KEKATA:
Beneath that milky hide
There's emptiness inside
WARRIORS:
I wonder if they even bleed
They're savages! Savages!
Barely even human
Savages! Savages!
Now even Hermione was insulted. She still didn't let anyone go to argue with the tribe though.
POWHATAN:
Killers at the core
KEKATA:
They're different from us
Which means they can't be trusted
WARRIOR:
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
At that point Hermione saw Harry and John tied up in a hut!
"Come on we have to warn the others!" Hermione ordered. "Especially about John and Harry!"
Hermione's group and Ron W's group both ran for Grandmother Willow's place, the sounds of the war song echoing behind them.
SETTLERS:
Savages! Savages!
BEN:
Let's go kill a few men!
WARRIORS:
Savages! Savages!
RATCLIFFE:
Now it's up to you, men!
SETTLERS & WARRIORS:
Savages! Savages!
Barely even human!
Now we sound the drums of war!
Behind Hermione, Ron W, and the team two fire clouds, one with the image of warriors and the other with the image of settlers, approached each other and formed a large cloud. Just as they entered a clearing near the river where both paths met the cloud erupted a bolt of lightning, illuminating them for just a second until the black of night engulfed them all. Not able to see anything, they cried out in earnest trying to find each other.
"Oh this is ridiculous!" Someone cried out, annoyed. "Camera, light!"
Camera obliged, and now that they all could see Hermione, Ron W and the team turned towards the voice.
"Rip Claw! Boy are we glad to see you." Josefina said happily.
"Boss sent me knowing you'd need fast transportation back." Rip explained.
"Wait, if you guys are here the same time that..." Tintin said. "Oh no, don't tell me both sides are going to war!"
"I'm afraid you're right." George said sadly.
"Wait a minute where's John and Harry?" Haddock asked. "At Grandmother Willow's?"
"Unfortunately no," Hermione said. "They're captured at the village!"
Everyone who didn't know gasped.
"Wait, where're the Eds?" Nazz asked.
"I'll look at the path we were on." Jackie offered.
Lilly zapped up a flashlight for him and he glanced down the path he and the other humans used. He suddenly froze for a minute, then yelled and quickly left the path. A colorful boulder, which was obviously the Eds, hurled down the path and whammed to a stop at the base of some trees.
"What in the world happened to you three?" Rolph asked bitterly.
"Tripped over a rock." The Eds said, dazed from their tumble.
Everyone else groaned.
"Forget it. Come on we have to go warn Pocahontas and Miranda!" Hermione ordered.
Everyone got into Rip and they left for Grandmother Willow's. When they got there, they overheard Pocahontas and Grandmother Willow talking.
"They're going to kill them at sunrise Grandmother Willow." Pocahontas said sadly.
"You have to stop them." Grandmother Willow said.
"I can't."
"Numbuh K9!" Numbuh Three suddenly cried.
She had just seen me lying still in the water.
Everyone else gasped as they saw me. Both Pocahontas and Grandmother Willow dropped their mouths open in shock since they didn't notice me there before. Hermione and Ron W lifted me out of the water and splashed water in my face. I gasped, coughed, and weakly climbed onto the stump.
"Numbuh K9 what happened?" Numbuh One asked, concerned.
I told them what happened since they left, and I also explained that since Superwolf skulls are extra strong the only way we could get knocked out was by magic. That led to only one thought: the Death Eaters had posed themselves as wolf members of the tribe! They must've been the few wolves that we couldn't figure out! The fact that the boulders that knocked me out were missing further proved that.
My friends were shocked about me being knocked out, but I was more concerned about Harry and John.
"They're going to kill him and John at sunrise!" Jackie said.
"We have to stop them!" I ordered.
"I can't." Pocahontas repeated.
"What?" My friends and I cried.
"Child, remember your dream..." Grandmother Willow said.
"I was wrong Grandmother Willow, I followed the wrong path. I feel so lost." Pocahontas said sadly.
Meeko left for a knothole in Grandmother Willow and, after grabbing something, went back to us. He hung down from a vine and handed Pocahontas what he had grabbed...
"The compass." Pocahontas said, looking at it. "The spinning arrow."
"It's the arrow from your dream!" Grandmother Willow said excitedly.
"I was right! It was pointing to him!" Pocahontas said happily.
The arrow started spinning, blown by the wind, and when it stopped it was pointing towards the war.
"It's not too late child!" Grandmother Willow said. "Let the spirits of the earth guide you! You know your path child, now follow it!"
Pocahontas left and so did Hermione, Ron W, and the team and I. We were running instead of riding Rip for the moment.
RATCLIFFE:
This will be the day...
Let's go men!
"They're starting..." I said to myself. "They're starting, move faster!" I yelled to everyone else. We picked up the pace.
POWHATAN:
This will be the morning...
Bring out the prisoner!
Some warriors brought out John and Harry. The two of them struggled but the warriors were too strong.
"I can go faster." James said, leaping into the air and turning into a stag!
"No way!" Jade gasped.
"James is also an unregistered animagus." Sirius explained before turning into his dog form.
SETTLERS & WARRIORS:
We will see them dying in the dust
POCAHONTAS:
I don't know what I can do
Still, I know I've got to try
SETTLERS:
Now we make them pay
POCAHONTAS:
Eagle, help my feet to fly
That line made me wonder what we were doing running.
"Wings wolves!" I ordered.
We three Superwolves flew into the air as the team got into Rip. Except for Sirius and James, they stuck with running.
WARRIORS:
Now without a warning
POCAHONTAS:
Mountain help my heart be great
SETTLERS AND WARRIORS:
Now we leave 'em blood and bone and rust
POCAHONTAS:
Spirits of the earth and sky...
SETTLERS & WARRIORS:
It's them or us
POCAHONTAS:
Please don't let it be too late
SETTLERS AND WARRIORS:
They're just a bunch of
Filthy, stinking
SETTLERS:
Savages!
WARRIORS:
Savages!
SETTLERS:
Demons!
WARRIORS:
Devils!
RATCLIFFE:
Kill them!
WARRIORS:
Savages!
SETTLERS:
Savages!
RATCLIFFE:
What are we waiting for?
SETTELRS & WARRIORS
Destroy their evil race
Until there's not a trace left
POCAHONTAS:
How loud...
SETTLERS AND WARRIORS:
We will sound the drums of war
POCAHONTAS:
...Are the...
SETTLERS AND WARRIORS:
Now we sound the drums of war
POCAHONTAS:
...Drums of war?
SETTLERS AND WARRIORS:
Now we see what comes
Of trying to be chums
POCAHONTAS:
Is the death of all I love
Carried in the drumming of war?
From high up, I spotted the battlefield.
"There they are! Dive! Dive!" I ordered.
The team and other two Superwolves and I did, and as we landed I joined Pocahontas. To our great horror, the one who was going to kill Harry was...
"Dad no! Stop! Stop!" I cried.
Steve had a club raised over Harry's head! Pocahontas and I barreled through the crowd of tribe members, heading for the top of the cliff-like hill where John and Harry were going to be killed.
"Don't!" Pocahontas and I cried as we leapt on top of John and Harry, saving their lives.
Gasping and out of breath from the sudden run, I decided to let Pocahontas speak first.
"If you kill him you'll have to kill me too!" Pocahontas cried.
"Daughter, stand back." Powhatan ordered.
"I won't! I love him father! Look around you, this is where the path of hatred has brought us! This is the path I choose father, what will yours be?"
Powhatan looked at the settlers and warriors. The wind appeared and whirled around him as he thought about his daughter's words. He lifted his club and held it horizontally above his head.
"My daughter speaks with a wisdom beyond her years." He said to the warriors. "We've all come here with anger in our hearts, but she comes here with courage and understanding. If there is to be more killing, it will not start with me. Release him."
A warrior released John, and Pocahontas hugged John.
"Dad how..." I froze as I smelt relief on him instead of anger.
"It's about time, I thought you' be late." Steve said.
"Huh?" I said.
"Huh?" Harry said.
"HUH?" Hermione, Ron W, and most of the team echoed.
"What are you...?" I froze again as Steve released Harry. "You mean you were faking it? All right Mr. Smarty-Tail, what would you have done if I actually was late?"
Steve bent his club and it sproinged back into place as he let go.
"Rubber?" I laughed. "Why you little..."
We all laughed, even Harry. The settlers stared in shock.
"You're the Superwolves?" A settler cried.
See, they heard of us but weren't sure whether we were good or not because of us using magic. That's why Harry and Ron W's identities were kept a secret.
I walked to the edge of the cliff.
"This is wrong!" I said half-angrily half-sternly. "Just because the both of you are different doesn't mean that either of you is evil. Skin color and customs have nothing to do with who you are or who is in the right. As long as you accept others, you're good, no matter where you're from." I then took off my collar; Ratcliffe, Powhatan and the warriors were startled to find out that I'm 'white.' "I'm part Native American by the way, which is the real term for an Indian! But I am also part English and Spanish! If that isn't proof that different worlds can be friends than I don't know what is!" I added.
The other Superwolves and the team now knew why I had acted Native American-ish all this time, and some were actually a little amazed by it.
The Native Americans and settlers lowered their weapons as I spoke, and even looked as if they felt bad about almost killing each other. There was a silence...
"Now's our chance!" Ratcliffe suddenly spoke up. "Fire!"
Geez, wasn't he listening?
"No!" Thomas said.
"What?" Ratcliffe said, shocked.
"They let him go!"
"They don't want to fight!" Ben added. "Besides, that Superwolf is right, this is wrong!"
The settlers didn't know our names very well.
"It's a trick, don't you see?" Ratcliffe cried. "Fire!"
No one did. Ratcliffe at first brandished his sword at them, but he soon became unsettled and dropped his sword.
"Fine! I'll shoot at them myself!" He said, grabbing a gun from a settler.
He aimed the gun at Powhatan, but John intercepted the bullet!
"No!" Thomas, Harry, and Ron W cried.
John fell to the ground and Pocahontas kneeled next to him. Not needing my human form any more, I put my collar back on and growled at Ratcliffe, preparing to attack. I didn't need to.
"John!" Thomas cried. "You shot him!"
"He stepped right...right into it, it's his own fault!" Ratcliffe said sternly...but with a touch of nervousness.
The settlers took turns yelling at Ratcliffe:
"Smith was right all along...!"
"We never should have listened to you...!"
"Get the gun!"
"Traitors!" Ratcliffe cried.
The settlers ambushed him.
"How dare you!" Ratcliffe said angrily.
"Put him in chains..." Thomas ordered.
"I'll see you all hanged for this!" Ratcliffe threatened.
"...And gag him as well!"
During the commotion no one saw Voldemort, who was still in his black wolf form, disappearing for the forest nearby….
