Chapter 11


Today is a new day but is no better. We are trying to light a fire but its useless without Piggy's glasses. Piggy suggests that I should hold a meeting. I thought it was silly since there are barely any of us left because the rest of the boys joined Jack's group. So I call for a meeting and the only thing we can do at this point is go to castle rock and try to reason with Jack.

I decide to take the conch because maybe it will remind Jacks followers of my former leadership. Once we get to the entrance of castle rock there are two boys guarding it. I blow the conch shell but the boys tell us too leave and they also start throwing rocks at us. Jack and his hunters come back from the jungle with a pig. As soon as Jack and I saw each other we start fighting immediately. Once we are done Jack tells us too leave the island but I command he gives us back Piggy's glasses. I try to tell Jack how important the signal fire is because it is our only chance of being rescued. Jack does not listen and orders Sam and Eric to be tied up. This made me so mad I just lunged right at Jack.

So Jack and I start fighting again. I can hear Piggy in the background crying and yelling. While Jack and I are fighting we hear a pig roaring sound coming down the mountain. It is a bolder. I dive out of the way of the bolder. But Piggy is hit by the bolder and the conch shell is also destroyed. Jack starts to throw his spear at me and the other boys join in. I escape into the jungle. I am shaken by what has happened to me. I now fear what Jack and his tribe will try to do to me. Will they kill me? I guess I will just have to hide in the jungle from now on...
