blog assignment #6

chapter 8 : Fine be that way
huff huff there is a beast up there huff.  It was horrible and scary.  We climbed up and there it was lurching in the dark.  But Ralph ran away like a little coward.  Now everyone was gathered around us.  listening to our amazing story.  Ralph came back"I did run away but so did you".  THis was becoming a enraging conversation.  I ran away when I saw the beast.  I bet you didn't even see the beast and you were already running back to our fort.  I see Ralph weakening.  Now is the time to strike.  I could be leader finally and get this idiot out of the way.  Ok i think that since Ralph is a scardy cat.  I should replace his roll as chief.  This was unexpected I heard no cheering no whispers there was no indication that anyone wanted me as chief.  There was a pause.  Ok raise your hand if you want me to replace Ralph's roll as chief.  WHAT!! no one was raising there hands.  I don't want to play with you anymore this is no fun.  I felt like crying! these idiot want the loser as chief.  Fine i will start my own tribe.  I ran off down by the beach and into the forest.  I left big marks in the sand by pressing my foot down real hard when i stepped.  I did this so if anyone wanted to come to my tribe they could.  
I was spying on them.  I saw everything they were doing.  It seemed as though everyone was happy as to what just happened.  All of a sudden the littleuns and my hunters ran off and scattered in the forest.  I didn't know what was happening.  Could they be hunting?  Looking for me?  Gathering wood?  Soon i saw my hunters burst out of the forest with some wood and they dropped it and started running on my tracks.   Once they got close they spotted me and no longer needed the tracks.  They were tired for they had to run so that Ralph didn't see them leave.  they say for a while and than I said that we will do fine.  You are the best hunters.  They have no one.  So in the meantime should we go hunt?  One said yes and the other shrugged.   take that as a yes.  We were in the forest and all of a sudden I heard a sucking noise.  We approached it.  I stook my head above a bush and there was a sow feeding some piglets.  I pulled back my spear and threw.  Oh no it was a horrible throw.  It only went in an inch and fell out.  By the time I had gotten my spear the hunters were on a hot pursuit with the moma pig.  I caught up and we were throwing spears they all went in but came out.  This time we didn't pick up the spears but just ran after the sow.  I jumped on but it kept running now i was ontop of the pig and i pulled out my knife and started stabbing.  The pig started to slow down and than all of a sudden it got a second wind and started sprinting again.  I quickly spotted its throat and went for the kill.  I slashed twice and the sow fell to the ground.  It was a great victory.  We pulled it back to our spot and gutted the pig.  We realized that we needed fire to cook the pig.  The hunters knew about there fire because they were part of the meeting about fire.  They told me about this fire and I decided to envade the beach and steal the fire.  We got out dead sticks and sneaked.  We finally came upon them and they had lit fires.  On your mark get set GO! We all ran towards the fire and got some on our stick.  Everyone was staring at us in shock.  I turned around and told everyone that there is going to be a feast tonight and whoever wants some can come and be apart of my tribe.  Remember we have the most fun.

Simon
chapter six: beast from water or air?
Uhh what happened?  "Hurry Simon the beastie attacked us" said Samneric.  I wake up and the twins are awakening a couple more people to warn them a beastie has come from the sky in a parachute.  Everyone in the huts in front of me were awake and yawning and stretching there arms.  Some people were just getting out of there huts and others were getting spears to hunt the beastie.  It turned out that Samneric fell asleep on the job and woke up with the beastie close to them or something but they than ran down and told Ralph. 
Ralph decided that they were going to hunt the beastie because i think he was slightly frightened himself.  The hunters had spears but I didn't.  The hunters started walking with there spears and everyone else followed because we were scared.  We left Piggy and the littluns back at the huts.  We were on a whole different side of the island that no one had bin to before.   We came up some weirdly assorted rocks that formed almost a bridge to a castle like thing. We start climbing and Jack spotted a hideout which he thought was cool.  Maybe that's where the beastie lives but it wasn't there at the moment.  I think that the beastie is some human being a sick and vile creature who wasn't friends with anybody before the crash.  I am trying to think about the plane we were on before we crash landed.

chapter seven:No order
Ralph seems like he is not doing so well.  What could i say to cheer him up? This might be hard but I will do my best to make him happy.  I told hi  m that he will make it back.  He seemed reassured because of what he said.  He looked confuse though for a second.  I think he was confused because i told him HE would make it back not WE.  I like this island and I feel in peace here.  I want to stay but as many pro's there are about the island there is more cons.  I thought to myself about this for a while.  Jack wants to hunt.  I don't hunt but i just track them.  All of a sudden someone sees a bore and everyone goes after it throwing there spears and all.  The situation becomes wild and out of control.  Now everyone is on the beach.  Ralph is celebrating because he hit the bore with the spear.  Even though he did not kill it he was cheerful.  I felt him falling away.  Thats how Jack got to be how he is now.  Thinking of Jack where is he? Than a rumble comes from a bush and out pops Jack.  Everyone looked at him and he showed off his hand.  I looked closely and realized there was a bloody wound on his hand.  He started telling a story.  Oh not again.  He kind of tried to drag the attention from Ralph to himself.  He said that he tried to catch it while it was wounded and he almost got it but the tusk cut his skin open.  
After the hunters participate in a wild game where a  boy is in the middle and he is the pig and everyone pretends to kill him.  I felt that each time they played that stupid game they had less order.
Shortly after the game Ralph decides to wait till morning but Jack challenges Ralph and everyone else to go.  Ralph, Jack and Roger went up while we stayed down.  There was little argument but they were getting along.  This isn't good.  The three boy's see something and run down because they are afraid.  They came down and said it was a flappy ape shaped figure.

chapter 5: "Oh no"
3-Piggy

           Ralph is very angry and the littluns were looking at him jeeringly which I am glad I am not one of the foolish hunters or littluns who didn't follow the rules.  I always refilled the coconut shell after I got a drink.  I wasn't a hunter so I had nothing to do with the fire and I always was generous about the whole bathroom thing.  Now Ralph has a harsh tone and I don't like it.  At least it wasn't towards me.  But he could get me for not building the shelters.  I think I should do what Ralph says for now on because he is the only one protecting me from Jack and also he is leader.  
          "We need to keep that fire going!" Ralph exclaimed.  He went on for a little about how we need to be rescued and we cant just live off meat and berries for ever.  This was true even though some of the others thought it was ludicrous.  I think this island was getting to him.  Also the fact that he knows it will be a while before we get saved.  Than there was commotion of the beastie and a little kid said he had a dream and he woke up near the forest.   Ralph asked if anyone had been in the dark at night and Simon raised his hand.  This was a relief.  He also said that the beastie comes out of the water.  Which made the situation harder.  Jack's face looked angry and bored.  He got up and decided he would make up a excuse to get out of the meeting and that was to go "hunt" the beast.  He walked away tempestuously and everyone else followed with decorum.  I think everyone else followed because they are afraid and Jack has courage.  It was just Ralph Simon and I.  Ralph told us he is thinking about not being leader.  I quickly snapped and realized the only thing in the way of of me is Ralph so if Jack becomes leader, because he would be the next person people would follow, he would kill me.  Ralph is also a good leader and Jack only wants meat and doesn't care about anything else.  Simon joined in because we both knew that we were on Jacks bad side so it made sense to keep Ralph as leader.  We were all tired and wanted to go to bed.  As we were falling asleep we could hear a littlun yelling in lamentation and in terror but we didn't do anything.

Blog assignment #3

chapter: 3/4 What is wrong with you!?!

uhh this is so hard.  "I know" said Simon.  Why do these huts keep breaking and where is everyone else? "I don't know but i wish someone would help us, Where will we sleep?"asked Simon.  I don't know but Jack is really taking over my leadership role and making decisions for himself.  " I think the hunters are using there jobs to keep from actually doing real work.  It was time for us to take a rest.  I laid down in the sand and Simon wandered off into the jungle.
Is that a ship? "Oh my god i think it is". exclaimed Piggy ludicrously.  I looked at the ship for around twenty seconds and than realized the smoke wasn't in the air as usual.  I ran up to the fire pit.  It was out.  How could this happen. Who was on fire duty and why were they not there!  We could have been saved!  Simon ran over to us in a very blatant manner when we had gotten back to the beach.  " guess what i cou-" who was on fire duty?I said jeeringly "SamnEric bu-" Why aren't they on fire duty". "Well i used them to help catch a pig! We finally have meat" Jack said.  You let the fire out.  "But we got meat" Jack explained.  There was a ship out there and we could have been rescued but your obession with hunting ruined it.  "Yeah thanks a lot" said Piggy said in belligerence.  Piggy and Jack went at it and than Jack punched him to the ground slapped him in the head and broke his specs.  Than Jack and I yelled at eachother also.  Jack was a effigy of a heartless person.  That was rude.  "I apologize for the fire incedent" Jack said.  "how about we have some meat?" Jack said.  He gave everyone but Piggy meat.  Piggy asked for some but Jack didn't give him any.  Than Simon gave his to Piggy and Jack was infuriated.

Blog assignment #2

Chapter two: "I declare the rules"

OK.  Now that we are all here and you have all quieted down i have some rules.  We need order.  whoever has the conch has the rite to speak.  No one was errant like before.I am the leader and therefore i can interrupt and i can give the conch.  A boy with a mark on his face after being pressure asked for the conch.  He stuttered for a little before saying something.  He than muttered about a beast snake animal or something.  A lot of the boy's were laughing at him along with me and i was wondered if everyone laughing was as scared as i was.  There couldn't be anything on this island like a snake, its impossible what a silly boy.  I tried to get the thought out of my head.  I grabbed back the conch i didn't want anyone getting scared or questioning my athority.
On to the next subject.  How are we going to get rescued.  I wasnt going to give the conch to piggy because he is already negative about the sittuation.  He thinks that no one knows about us and that is not true.  The queen has a map of every island and we shall get saved.  I know! I exclaimed.  We can make a signal fire at the top of the mountain and we shall be found!  All of a sudden I hear cheering FIRE!FIRE! LETS GO MAKE A FIRE! Everyone is running with ebullience except for piggy but i don't want my leader reputaion getting ruined becuase of that fatty. HE was yelling that we can't burn down the island and we need to make a shelter if we are aregoing to be here a while.
When we got to the top of the mountain everyone was helping get wood I knew this would work until i thought about how we were going to light up the fire.  Piggy finally made it up to the top and was complaining.  Once we all had stopped we were thinking about how to start the fire.  All of a suden jack bursted out with a brilliant idea.  "Lets use Pigy's glasses!" I agreed and went to go hold back Piggy while Jack pinched his specs.  I knew Piggy was going to put up a fight.  Once we had the glasses Jack used them as a magnifying glass and used the sun ray to start the fire.  It was so hot we had to turn back.  When we had stopped Piggy was complaining even more about shelters and what not.  I wasnt listening till he started talking about the kid with the mark.  "Where is he !" Piggy exclaimed. I looked around i didn't see him.  This is bad. Someone said they had seen him playing by the fire.  "Look what you have done!"cried Piggy. I was induced by piggyWe all knew what had just happened and i respected Piggy just a little bit more.  "I should have listened to him" I said to myself.  After this loss all the kid's were martyred

chapter 1: where are we?
3=Simond
"What's happening?" "where are we?" "oh finally you have woken up" said Jack. " You fainted again, we were on a plane and i think we were shot down".  "What! I dont remember a thing".  Ok well just get on your uniform we are going to say our matins and than go see if anyone is on this island". We said our prayer and we walked through the forest and out onto a beach.  One of the other four boy's i was with said i looked pallor from fainting.  "we walked for a while and than suddenly we heard a loud low pitch sound and we followed it till we saw a group of boys on the border of the beach.  I was relieved to see someone else on the island.

When we got over to the boy's we started talking.  "I woke up" had I passed out again? I get up and next thing i know i was voted in to go look for food or something.  I had no clue what was going on and i couldn't remember past seeing those boy's on the beach.  Now some fat kid with glasses is arguing with another kid with a weird shell in his hand.  The fight quickly ended and a boy named Ralph, Jack, and I went into the forest.  We were to search the land to find out if it is an island or not. On the way back we found a piglet trapped in some creepers and rite as Jack was going to kill it the piglet ran away.  I think he is scared but i would never say that out loud.  At least we found some other living organism.
