Lord of the Flies: Post #2

There's a Fire!
Piggy's Journal

I was on the beach for a meeting because a survivor blew the conch. Ralph told us that we were on an island with no adults. I was listening to Ralph and he did not mention what happened and why we were stuck on this island. I could not take it anymore. No one new that we were crashed on a island. All the sudden I screamed out that we were stuck on an island and that we were crashed on an airplane and that we could be on the island for a very long time. Then everyone got scared. All the sudden a little 4 year old with a large mark on his face says there is a snake-like beastie on the island. Ralph and I said that its all a nightmare. The little boy says it was not a dream. We all laughed because he thought the beastie was actually real. Soon after we were all done laughing we were trying to figure out a way to get off this island. Ralph decides that we should build a fire on the tallest hill on the island. Everyone agrees to it. I even agreed to that idea. We then start hustling over to the tallest hill on the island. Me and Ralph were lagging. I was complaining on how childishness are group was and how stupid our group was. We then get near the top of the hill and I was collecting dead tree bark so we could use it for the fire. I induced myself to carry the little boys bark with the blueberry colored face mark. I set my blocks of wood in the middle of the mountain. I was very very tired. Then the whole group set their block of wood on my block of wood. Ralph was figuring out a way to make the wood burn. All the sudden two errant survivors take me not letting me go and they pinch my specs away from me. I am screaming out. "Give me my specs, I cannot see anything without my specs. Give me my specs". Ralph places my specs to the light. So that the glasses will reflect of the light onto the wood. A couple minutes later the wood starts to burn. All the survivors were so ebullience when the fire started going. Ralph then says we had to put some rocks around the fire so it does not spread anywhere and does not catch the whole island on fire. We then got some big rocks and put it around the fire. After we did that I said to all of the boys that we had to act more proficiently if we want the fire to keep on going. I was putting more wood in the fire, but it quickly died down. The surviving boys were riping off tree bark. While the 4 year old boy was capering by the fire. Soon after we were all surprised and shocked and we pretended nothing had happen.÷≥
