Lord of the Flies

Chapter 10: The Shell and the Glasses

Perspective: Piggy

Today was an okay day. We just saw and participated in Simon's death. We all got injured during that. I really miss Simon. I am very sorry that I killed him and I really wish that Simon would have been smarter and had not come in at night. They would not think that he was the beast.

I saw Samneric coming out of the forest with a log. I went over and lit the fire so that we can get rescued. I went over to talk to Samneric. They said that they left the party early and so did we and Ralph and I said we left early to. We didn't want to admit that we were part of the group that had killed Simon.

Later that night, Jack came over and tried to steal something. He was fighting us. Samneric kicked one of the people in the nuts. It must of hurt. They were punching and kicking us. It was a good fight and I think that nobody will come back after what we did to them. I then realized that they had tried to steal some fire.
