Why is there more than one version of Pocahontas?
Because the real story is never told. Many people have taken the story by Smith and turned it into cartoons and movies. He never met her and lied in a book he wrote after she died. She was held hostage by the colonists for 4 years and became a Christian changing her name to Rebecca. When John Rolfe came to Jamestown with his tobacco seeds he also married Pocahontas and they left for England. She had a baby boy there and died about age 19. Her grave is in England. Her real story is so much better than the silly legend told about her.
How did Pocahontas become a leader?
Pocahontas was never a leader, in any form: these myths are formed from fanciful (and outright non-truthful) legends built up around cartoons (Like Disney's production of Pocahontas) and such. Pocahontas was just a widowed woman that married a widowed 'white man,' was baptized to the Church of England, and was taken before the Queen of England to "prove these savages could be domesticated."
What question might Pocahontas and john smith asked each other to learn more about there cultures?
Let's get the story of these two clear. Pocahontas didn't have a relationship with Smith. She was taken hostage by the colonist and held for 4 years. In the 4 years she became a Christian and changed her name to Rebecca. She married John Rolfe and left for England with him. There, she had a baby boy and died. She is buried there. Smith made up the story about his relationship with her in a book several years after her death. He was a adventurer, lied, and did everything he could to make his part in Jamestown greater than it really was. His stay in Jamestown was only about 6 month before he had to go home due to burns he got from gunpowder sprinkled on him while he slept. As far as questions she might ask him why he lied about her and why was she taken hostage. Smith for his part cared little about her culture.
