Interactions with Native Americans after capture

I became friends with the Indians and went back to their homeland.. Pocahontas helps the settlers by bringing them food. She's such a good person. The settlers were eating in gluttony. The Indians and myself exchanged goods. I gave them a compass. The Indians are so nice. The people of Jamestown were in shock and felt doleful for the loss of me. Six weeks later, I return to Jamestown. The Indians in admiration, brought me greatly and safely back home. They give me presents. #YAY

Framing of Smith

While on the journey,  Me and my men are at sea.  We are soon hit with bow and arrows by Indians. The Indians wanted to frame me for the death of two others. #Confused I never killed anyone! Thankfully the beautiful Pocahontas steps in and puts her head on mine. She begs for a entreaty. #ThankGoodness Then the Indians stopped. They instantly became my friend. I was happy because I didn't do anything wrong.
 

Pocahontas Saved My Life

  Dear People Back Home,
  Today I gave the Indians a compass and it's like they have never seen anything more exciting. Eventually though, they tied me up to a tree and prepared to shoot me with their hand made bow and arrows. The king stopped them though. They pampered me after that. Having me wash my hands and drying them with feathers instead of a towel. #confusing Before I knew it two of the biggest men grabbed me and dropped me to the ground where they planned on beating me to death with rocks and clubs. Preparing myself for what was coming next I feel two, soft hands on my head and my head in a lap. Pocahontas, the kings daughter, with nothing protecting me. Looking down at me with her beautiful big brown eyes and high cheek bones. Her long black hair tickling my face with all the beads and feathers in it. I knew I was safe when she gave me a reassuring smile.


The Capturing

  Dearest Homestead People,
   My men and I have been captured by the Indians.They are trying to accuse me of killing the two men in the woods! We sent them out one morning and they never came back. Some say that the men were eaten by a wolf. Others say it was a bear. I believe that the Indians were the ones to go out in the woods and kill them and then they captured me. It is hard to tell if they look up to me or not. The Indians are strange people. There is no better way to explain them other than over worked out Italians. They have mocha colored skin and long black hair. They are ripped. With every move they make you can see the muscles move in their arms, legs and chest. They tried doing magic on me and they cheered that they had me as a prisoner. Eventually they started to trust me and almost admire me. I am nervous to see what is ensued.

Arrival to 'Merica

  Dear People of The Homestead,
  Today marks the 10th day that we have been on the ship. There are very few of us even able to stand because we are green with sickness and weakened by the extremity of the heat. It is as if we are on a diet, losing so much weight so fast. We were only planning on being out on the water for 2 months. Faster than we knew it those two months turned into 5 months. #painful #homesick
