Dear diary,
It's getting harder every day to be on this
miserable island, my hair is getting longer by the hour, the days seem to last
forever, I would do anything for a bath, and most of all I miss my parents!
Since time seems to feel as if moving slower on the island and sometimes just
like to look out at the vast expanse of water and just wonder why I seems to
always be against us. Blocking our way of getting home. Home. Now an unfamiliar
word to all of us. Simon say me and lifted my spirits enough to give me enough
courage to get through the day.
That afternoon, Jack and his hunters found
pig dropping and they decide to hunt the pig while they continue to search for
the beast. I think that’s a good idea since we could all use a little fun and
food since we've all been scared out of minds because we spotted the beast.
This was the first time in a while that I was excited to do anything. My first
time hunting, has a nice ring to it. We track the boar on a wild chase and when
we finally find, I throw my spear but it glances of the boar’s snout. I finally
marked my man ship!!! Jack was bleeding, but I didn’t care because I finally
went hunting!
The boys decided to play a dangerous game were
Robert was playing a boar and everyone was trying to kill the boar. They
started to dance, chant and jab at Robert with their spears, I think that at
one point they might've forgotten that it was only a game. They nearly killed
Robert, he didn’t want to be a part of the game anymore that he suggested that
they actually use a boar for the game next time. I don’t even recognize them anymore;
they're becoming animals in the wild. Simon offers to tell Piggy and the
Littluns that they're going to be back late at night. Roger, Jack and I
continue to travel up the mountain but Jack goes ahead of us and climbs the
summit. He told that he had seen monster but Roger and I had to make sure that
he actually did se something. There it was, a terrifying specter, a large
shadowy form with the shape of a giant ape, making a flapping noise in the
breeze. We were all terrified and run down the summit back to the other boys!
Ok… I think I'm starting to believe that there IS something living on the
island with us.
Signed,
Ralph
