POCAHONTAS

In the movie Kocoum is Chief Powahatan's bravest warrior and fought bravely in the battle against the Massawomecks. When Pocahontas is reunited with her father that she had a dream that something exciting is about to happen to which Chief Powahatan says Something exciting is about to happen. Kocoum has asked to seek your hand in marriage. When Pocahontas hears this she tells her father that Kocoum seems so serious for her but her father insists that Kocoum will make a fine husband because he is loyal and strong and will build Pocahontas a good house with sturdy walls and that with him Pocahontas would be safe from harm but Pocahontas believed that her dream was pointing her down another path. When the settlers arrived Kocoum insisted that he lead the warriors to the river and attack them and destroy them the way they destroyed the Massawomecks to which Chief Powahatan said that in that battle they knew how to fight their enemies but the pale visitors were strange to them and he ordered Kocoum to take some men to the river to observe them. When Kocoum arrived at the river they saw the settlers digging up for gold and one of the warriors spoted 30 more of them down by the ridge to which Kocoum replies That makes more than a hundred. Soon the settlers spot the warriors and begins to fire their guns at them. Ratcliffe spots Kocoum's friend Namontack up in a tree and shoots him in the leg and just as one of the settlers named Ben was about to hit Namontack in the leg Kocoum bursted in and pushed Ben out of the way, grabed Namontack up, and ordered the other warriors back to the Village. When Chief Powahatan hears of this he orders Kocoum to send messengers to every village in their nation and they will call on their brothers to help them fight the dangerous settlers(not knowing tht his daughter has made friends with one of them named John Smith). The next day Chief Powahatan sends for Kocoum to watch over Pocahontas amd her friend Nakoma while they gather food for when the warriors arrive but when Kocoum shows up only Nakoma is there and she lies telling Kocoum that she hasn't seen Pocahontas (who snuck off with John Smith into the woods). Kocoum tells Nakoma to tell Pocahontas that she can't keep running off because it's dangerous out there. He also tells Nakoma that Pocahontas listens to her to which Nakoma replies Sure she does. When the warriors arrive and Pocahontas comes back from being in the woods with John Smith Kocoum comes up to her saying Look at them! Now we have enough warriors to destroy those white demons. That night Pocahontas goes to the woods to meet John Smith and Nakoma tells Kocoum because she thinks that Pocahontas is in trouble. When Kocoum spots John Smith and Pocahontas together kissing he becomes enranged and attacks Smith. Pocahontas tries to break up the fight but John Smith's friend Thomas who also secretly followed them into the woods appears and shoots Kocoum killing the warrior. Before he dies Kocoum's hand grabs Pocahontas' necklace tearing it off into peaces. Smith tells Thomas to run and as the warriors arrive they take John Smith and Kocoum's dead body back to the Village. When Kocoum's body is bought back to the village the Warriors tell the Chief that Kocoum went to find Pocahontas out in the woods and that John Smith attacked them. The Chief believes that Smith killed Kocoum and orders that Smith will die at dawn. He also tells Pocahontas that because of her foolishness Kocoum is dead and that she has shamed her father.
