Chapter 11

      Dear Diary,      The next morning, me and the others that remained with me tried to light the fire but it was too cold. It is hopeless without Piggy’s glasses. Plus, Piggy can barely see. I must get them back from Jack and his crew.         I took the conch shell to the Castle Rock, hoping that it would remind Jack’s followers of who was in charge. When we had gotten there we were welcomed by rocks. Within a minute jack was out here face standing 3 feet ahead of me. He told us to leave and I said I'm not leaving without Piggy's glasses.   He then attacks me and were fighting. Jack ordered his hunters to capture Sam and Eric and tie them up. This is what really pissed me off because I did not come here to fight and be capture, so I lunged straight at jack.       We fought again, and piggy was trying to get us all under control. His cries were what got him killed. ...

Dear Diary,      Piggy and I went to the feast so that we would be able to keep some control over events. At the feast, the boys were enjoying themselves laughing and eating the roasted pig. Jack was sitting in a big chair like a throne languidly issuing commands. I don’t know what is going on with Jack. Was he really that jealous of me.        Jack extended an invitation to all of the remaining followers to join his tribe. Most of them accepted, my attempts of trying to persuade them to stay was a failure. What I the world is going through his mind right now?      I t started to rain, an idea came up in mind. How will they shelter themselves from rain. I asked jack how he plans to weather the storm without any shelter. In response, Jack orders his tribe to do its wild hunting dance. A couple minutes goes by and the beast comes. Jack and the others kill it gruesomely it. They were acting like beast themse...

Dear Diary,     The next morning, we brought news about the monster to the other children on the island. The boys were   in a state of confusion as they had begun to drift towards the platform where we held meetings.     Piggy who was not on the mountain the night before was baffled by what we had to say about the monster. The night we had went up we came back down within a minute of seeing the beast. It had sharp claws and teeth big eyes and wings. It scared half of us to death. You had to be there to feel its eerie presence.      Jack goes from telling the others that there is a beast on the mountain to calling me a coward. He is envious of me leading the children and attempts to have me impeached. The other boys refuse to vote me out of power. In doing so, Jack stormed away from the group.

Dear Diary, We were traveling to the mountain. We stopped shortly to eat. I did not eat, instead I sat there and gazed at the ocean. I felt like it was blocking us from getting back to civilization. Like it was keeping us here. Later that afternoon, we found pig droppings. Jack suggested that we should hunt the pig as we continue our search for the beast. I said let's find it quickly so we can continue the search. The other boys agreed and within 5 minutes or so we had found it. A large one too. I readily my stick and threw it at the boar. Sadly it hit its snout. I am very thrilled with his marksmanship nonetheless. Jack held up his bloody arm, he claims the boar grazed with its tusks. The boar escaped, it was fun hunting though. we reenacted the chase with Robert playing as the boar. We danced, chanted, and jabbed at Robert with their spears. Sadly, Robert runs away. I kind of think we could have killed him because he was bleeding. We should really be careful. ...
