The End by Jenn Beach

This is all Ralph's fault. I told him to keep to his side of the island and I would leave him alone. However, I never said anything about not bothering Piggy. It's just so easy to get to him. You should have seen the look on his face when I took his glasses! And then here he comes all high and mighty with his stupid shell trying to tell me that I have to give them back? I don't have to do anything! I'm the chief of this island now. Everyone knows Ralph was a bad leader he couldn't even give them meat so why did they need fire? At least now the beast will have something big and fatty to eat now that Piggy's dead. Too bad those marines came when they did. I mean.. of course I wanted to go home but I was in the middle of the biggest hunt of my life. It sure would have felt good to have gotten Ralph. I had Roger sharpen a stick at both ends...

xhusti 2 post

Chapters 5 and 6This is becoming harder and harder. The other boys arent helping me at all and i feel like everything is on my shoulder. I have to do everything my self and constantly remind the boys i need their assistance but nothing is getting done. They dont want to work on the shelters nor any other important chores such as gathering drinking water, or signaling the fire. On top of all this they are all starting to fear monsters more and more which is effecting the group a lot.The twins made a claim and started signaling the fire which scared the boys even more. When we were on our expeition to find the beast, everyone lost focus and started doing their own thing and completely forgot what they're task was. They barely follow my instructions and its a struggle everyday.
Chapters 9 an 10
Today couldn't get any worse.We acted foolishly and killed one of our good friends Simon. There is nothing that can take that back and we are living in guilt. We followed some of Jack's boys and started going crazy and careless just like them which lead to the crucial act. Jack is overruling and taking over everything. Most of the boys are on his side now and he is taking advantage of being "king."Hes beating boys for no logical reason and is making matters worse. Some of his boys even beat me and Piggy up for no reason and even stole his glasses to benefit them in starting a fire

I GOT HIM! - I finally did it. I finally killed the pig! With our clay paint camouflage, which was my idea, was the best. And now that i finally killed the pig, I go back to find Ralph mad at me and the others for not watching the fire. We were only gone for what..an hour, it's really not that big of a deal. He made us feel horrible about it though. We finally get some meat and all we do is get yelled at for something else. And who does that FATTY think he is anyway, standing up to me like that. When I slapped him and knocked his glasses off his face, boy I showed him. He's always complaining like a little girl i needed to knock some sense into him. Oh and another thing, that kid Ralph, lets just say he's not my favorite person on the island.

I SAW IT! I finally saw the beast that everyone on this island has been talking about. After climbing up that exhausting mountain, Ralph, Roger and I saw this terrifying large ape like creature at the top. OH, and i can't believe the other boys will not take Ralph out of the top of the leadership. I personally think, i should be the leader of the group. I mean i do know a lot more than Ralph and half less scared. So i decided to take off on my own and who ever wanted to follow was more then welcome. Of course I made myself the leader of my own group. The boys of my group killed a pig, which means FOOOOOD! We had a big feast, and I was nice enough to let any of the boys come. Ralph still makes me angry though. We'll see what happens with me and him.

Who does that Ralph think he is, blowing that stupid conch in front of the most beautiful place, Castle Rock. I couldn't help myself, but to fight him, and a fight worth while. Poor FATTY, fell and "killed himself." He deserved it anyway. OH yeaa, and I now have 2 more members of my group. Sam and Eric finally joined after a long torture that they forced themselves to get into. Now my only enemy, the only person I want dead on this island is Ralph. I try to go looking for him and can't find him. I have a brilliant idea of setting the whole jungle on fire so that Ralph would burn either way. But something more exciting happens, WE ARE RESCUED! I can't wait to get home and see my family. I wonder if there is any good food in my house, I'm starved.

The End - Emily C.

It's a shame Piggy had to die. Although, it did teach the others a lesson and he was quite annoyning. I am not excited to be rescued. When the ship appeared, I became lost. My reign of power was short lived. Now, we travel back to civilization. I don't think I will do well in society - because the time spent on this island has changed me. I am no longer Jack Merridew, the lead choir boy. My family will not know who I am and they should fear me. Hopefully, after a while back in the real world, my hunting instincts will diminish and I will be accepted again. But one can only hope.

Faewell to my Paradise-Roshani Shah

Chapter 11 & 12

People will not leave me alone! The point of scurrying away from Ralph and Piggy was to earn my privacy. In turn, what do I get? Castle Rock is mine and I don’t need anyone invading it. I had to fight Ralph as for Piggy well, do I have to discuss that? Whatever happened it happened for the good, lets just put it that way. I took his glasses and they come after me with a conch. I find that really funny. I need it to have my own fire, if they don’t have meat what do they need a fire for anyway? After everything happened Piggy died, what did I say. Everything happened for the best. I recruited the twins and I had the whole place for myself except for one person…Ralph. So hunted him down by sending my boys to burn everything in their way if they had to. Everything was going so smoothly until some naval officer came. Back to civilization already? I was just getting started.

Farewell to MY Paradise

Chapter 11 & 12

People will not leave me alone! The point of scurrying away from Ralph and Piggy was to earn my privacy. In turn, what do I get? People bothering me. Castle Rock is mine! I don’t need anyone invading it. I had to fight Ralph to get off my back as for Piggy well, do I have to discuss that? Whatever happened it happened for the good, lets just put it that way. I took his glasses and they came after me with a Conch. Like I was going to listen to them! I find that really funny. I needed it to have my own fire, if they don’t have meat what do they need a fire for anyway? After everything happened Piggy died, what did I say. Everything happened for the best. I recruited the twins and I had the whole place for myself except for one person…Ralph. So hunted him down by sending my boys to burn everything in their way if they had to. Everything was going so smoothly until some naval officer came. Back to civilization already? I was just getting started.

Ch. 11-12 Jen M.

Haha! Ralph must think he's a big shot, coming over to my camp and trying to gain back his former followers. There's something he doesn't know - they're with me now! Forever! I showed him when I nearly stabbed him with my spear. And he thinks I'm going to let little Piggy have his specs back? That's a joke! Those specs are mine now. We need it for cooking all our meat. And how funny was that when we tied up those dumb twins - they better join my tribe. Then Ralph will really have no one since Piggy's gone. Hahaha bow down to the new chief!

A farewell to Piggy and the conch - Payal Thaker

Chapters 11 & 12
Who does Ralph think he is? He just decided to come to Castle Rock to tell
my boys who's boss? I don't think so. And then he has the guts to ask for Mr. Ass-mar's specs as if I would give them to him. He won't be needing his specs now anyway, thanks to Roger. What great aim Roger had with the rock! Somehow Ralph got away, but at least that conch shell is destroyed. Now I don't have to hear him gaga about so-called civilization and rules. We didn't get him today, but I sure will tomorrow! I'm going to send the entire tribe after him! He's completely alone now. Even Samneric switched over to my side.
. . . But now what? We have been rescued by a naval officer,  but I don't even know how or what to feel. I mean, things will never be the same again.

Total Control

The Last Day unknown to me....
Total Control... its lovely thing... I am the boss... Ralph , what a moron, he realy thought that he was able to rule this island. Especially with Piggy and Simon gone Ralph has NO ONE. He will be so alone and that is when i shall attack and get rid of him forever then it will be all me. I have captured the twins and i know that they will still be faithful to him but i can use that to my advantage. If Ralph gets in touch with them their life will be hell.....
The Way home...
I am in such trouble... I cant believe that we have been rescued. I could never imagine. But I know that i am going to be in trouble especially when that officer started questioning us about how we could let the rules go out the window especially sense were English. O well i will just blame it on Ralph besides i have my tribe to stand up for me....

Ralph and Piggy

Now I am truly chief! Ralph tried to come here and take away my power. But he failed! My guys stood behind me and supported my decisions. And Bravo to Roger with that spectacular throw. That conch bursted into a million little pieces. Now that fat lard Piggy has nothing to hold on. The Ralph and Piggy era is coming to end. My time has now come!!! And I will rule with an iron fist.

I Should've Killed Him Before -Gretchen Stricker

I needed to get that Ralph. Now that that fat-arse is gone. Stupid with his ass-mar couldn’t get out of the way of the boulder. Ralph did, but I wish he hadn’t. He was all alone. All his followers had turned to me. Samaneric were on my side, finally, all it took was a little persuasion. We almost had him. He even set the trees on fire to smoke him out. But then he just had to run. And there just had to be an officer on the beach. The officer was asking all kinds of questions. Now I am going to get into trouble and it will be all Ralph’s fault. I should’ve killed him earlier.

I am king

I love having control and i believe im a much much better leader then Ralph was.. All the litluns and everyone is haveing fun at the feast, they laugh and eat the pig.. Everyone is excited when I order them to do the wild hunting dance when it starts to rain. I believe we will now be better off on teh island with me as a leader and will get out of here safer...

ch 5 and 6
Some of the boys are really slacking at there jobs here on the island.. these assigned jobs are very important and need to get done. i hope that soon the litluns will realize that there is no such this as a monster and will then have better nights of rest instead of crying though-out the night. Goin out with the hunters to try and find this made up monster will keep the litluns quiet for awhile.. I just wonder if there really is a monster out on this island and how are we gunna kill it... During the quest to go find the moster that the litluns said hurt them I notice that the tension between Ralph and I is decresing... the less tension the better for us all


Ch 2 & 3
I really dont like ralph at all... As a leader he is doing fine. I'm taking care of the hunters and we are trying hard to catch meat.. we need practice and we will be good at it. i dont want to be bothered with ralphs problems. yes the huts are important but my job is to get meat not build huts. he needs to get more control over his group of boys. I hope this fire making gets better soon.. because it will help us to be saved by getting attention from a boat or plane. we also can not lose lifes in a fire.. the more boys the better, we need to all become mature fast.. we will survive

I Run The Show! - Ciara Morales

I love the way things are going. All the littluns are all under my power. Its great. Ralph really thinks he can gain control. He's Wrong ! They love me, I'm a lot more fun than he is.  We painted our faces, and ran around like crazy people. We even feasted. They love me and I know they don't want Ralph around, besides he always wants to enforce these stupid rules. Now he listens to fat arse and tries to act like an adult. Like what kinda joke is that? We aren't near adults why should we try to be like them? I amaze myself, we hurt the beast, we all attacked it! It was so cool, I knew we could do it!

My Own Tribe by Jenn Beach

Stupid Ralph. All he cares about is rules, rules, rules. He hides behind his rules as if they're actually going to save him. I should have been the true leader from the start. All of the little warriors see that now and our tribe is going to be fiercer than ever. Ralph is too weak to hunt with us. He screamed like a little girl when I suggested killing a littlun. It's not like they're good for anything anyway. Maybe we didn't catch the boar but you best believe that I will. I have a score to settle now. And I will get my revenge. I'm in charge now and NO ONE will stand in my way. But we sure did have a blast killing the sow. We even cut off her head and put it on a stick as an offering to the beast. I hope that's enough to keep it away... it's seen me now and it really is big, dark and horrible.

Who needs the conch? - Payal Thaker

I almost had that boar. I was so close! Its tusks even grazed my arm! But that didn't stop me; I continued my hunt at night. Ralph was afraid to climb the mountain because it was dark--what a coward! So I challenged him and we climbed up the mountain. When I reached the peak...I saw the beast!

I just couldn't stand it anymore! So I called my own assembly. It's the least I could have done to tell the others what a coward Ralph is and  that he doesn't deserve to be the leader. At first no one joined me, but sooner than later I had my own tribe Now I am the chief and my word is the final word. We will be true hunters and survive. How else would we have hunted that sow down without me taking initiative and leading the way? We even managed to have a good time. Now that's what I call leadership. Later, we left the head of the sow on a stake as an offering to the beast. Hopefully that'll keep it away from us...

Ch 7 + 8

I can't believe I could not act in time to get that boar. His tusk actually cut me. That would be fun if someone pretended to be a pig, like a real hunt, and we all pretended to kill him.
Why wouldn't I hate Ralph? I am the true leader. And he gets scared too easily. Why not go up the mountain now? well it is pretty dark.
I should be chief and I bet everyone else thinks that. Oh... No one else does.
Forget it, I'm off on my own.
Some came back to me. Guess they know they are better off with me.
We killed the mother pig and we'll leave her head for the beast. Hopefully he'll let us be.

My Group My way - Roshani Shah

The only reason Ralph doesn’t like me is because I have the leadership qualities he doesn’t possess. I can speak to Biguns and littluns and I have a group of followers. I am always the one stepping up to the plate. I am the one who wanted to go on top of the mountain to find the beast. Along with finding the beast, I became hungry and wanted to hunt. I finally went my way and made my own group. Diverging from them meant I didn’t have to listen to Piggy or Ralph. I was able to hunt a piglet. I also had fun while doing it as a group of us dressed up and became savages in effort to steal the fire. At least we will not starve to death because we are hunters. I can’t believe that they think I am the bad guy. I even offered to share the meat. Things are a lot better though, since we have split up. (Chapter 7 & 8)

Ch. 7 and 8

NO more Ralph!!! He thinks that he knows whats best... well he is wrong. I am so sick and tired of him. Like today on the mountain, I had to be the leader and go to the top, i had to be the one to find the beats. I also had the idea of killing the boar. I mean you think that Ralph being suck a "leader" he would have suggested it. but nope, all me. But get this... I had my tribe go over to his place on the beach and steal so of his fire because piggy is still with Ralph. I even tried to take the upper road and offered them to come over and have some boar meat tonight...

The Beast - ch 7-8 Jen M.

That game we played with Robert before was so much fun! He was terrified. If only, if only we could have played that with a littlun! It's too bad we didn't kill that boar, but oh well we will next time.
Seeing that beast was crazy. His face was so scary...he looked right at me. When I was all alone up there without Ralph and Roger I thought he was going to hurt me. But I can't let Ralph or anyone else know that I was scared.
I can't believe those other stupid boys didn't want me to be the new chief over Ralph. I mean he's not nearly as brave as me. I'm a hunter for Christ's sake. I went up there on that mountain by myself. Whatever...

I Hate Ralph Sam Kaplan

I don't understand why Ralph loves Piggy so much! Every other word out of Ralph's mouth is Piggy this and Piggy that. Why can't he see Piggy as the lazy sucker he is. Ralph is also such an attention queen. He always wants to be the leader. He won't even let us share the power, even though he should. I know this island better than he ever will. I should be chief.

My Own Tribe -Gretchen Stricker

I am chief, and don’t have to put up with that coward and fatty no more. It was brilliant. Ralph only wants peace, such a coward that he can’t even hunt. But when he tried we saw the monster. The others didn’t want to get rid of the coward so I made my own tribe. Many more people are following me, deserting Ralph. Ha ha ha. We even killed a pig and are going to have a feast to celebrate. We will be nice and invite the other kids to join us, because they don’t have meat. That will show Ralph.

King of the Castle - Emily C.

I am now in charge and no one can tell me what to do. No Ralph that bosses me around, thinking he knows what is best because he is "chief." And, thank goodness, no more Piggy. He just got in the way of everything. Although, his glasses did come in handy.
Oh and my clan and I also killed a pig - a sow to be exact. It was a good chase, but we won in the end. I can't wait to surprise the others. Oh to see the look on their faces when I walk into their camp...it will be priceless.

Get a Grip.. Seriously!- Ciara Morales

I honestly don't see what all of this commotion is a about. There is no such thing as a beast. Everyone's afraid for no reason, how old is everyone. That's ridiculous. My hunting crew and I will get this SO CALLED BEAST. I'm scared of nothing. All I can fear is fear itself. Im so sick of Ralph always defending Piggy's fat arse. Just because he has a good idea once in a blue moon doesn't make him a brilliant person. I'm so in control now, Ralph doesn't even see it. The little'uns know to trust me, I won't let them down. You watch, and learn Ralph.

There Aren't Any Monsters

The littluns need to get control over themselves. They are afraid of a "monster" which I think is totally not real. Everyone is afraid, but they don't always have to be cryin' and whinin' that the "monster" is gonna get them. It hasn't attacked anyone so far so I don't believe it for on second.
To settle the littluns fear I will lead my hunters to kill the beast if there is one cause we are the best hunters around. I couldn't believe that the twins saw the monster and were attacked by it. It was cool that Ralph let me lead the search for the monster and we even found a new place on the island with lots of caves which was cool. It was kind of good that me and Ralph are gettin' along better than we were, we can't be fightin' if we are gonna survive.

A little respect for me -Roshani Shah

I did my part and I should be respected for it. I don't see any other accomplishments around here. I finally proved myself to the boys. I went out with my group of boys and did things my way. After achieving my goals all I get are complaints from Ralph. The fire was important no doubt, but it is even more important to stay alive. That meat symbolized our survival. After all I put myself though Piggy had the courage to talk to me in the way he did. Don't even get me started about him. I put that kid right back in his place and where he belongs with quite a blow right to his face. He never has anything valuable to say because whatever he says gets everyone really mad. He thinks his way is the right way. I can't bear listening to his voice. I have to go celebrate with my boys. I brought the food home tonight and it is my turn to earn a little respect around here.

They want to tell me what repsonsibility is?

My hunters and I fulfilled our responsibility of killing a pig. When we returned with the dead pig, Ralph decides to accost me about the signal fire. Yesterday he complains about me not catching a pig and when I finally did so, he complains about something else. Complaints, complaints, complaints. And he calls himself a leader
Of course Piggy came along to complain about how immature my hunters are. Who is he to lecture us on immaturity and responsibility? So I gave him a light…well, okay, a quite hard slap and his glasses broke. I don’t really feel guilty. Why should I? It’s not like he’s useful for anything.
Anyway, I better get more clay and charcoal so I can camouflage to hunt down another pig.

Chapter 4 - Katie

Maybe something as simple clay face paint can cover up the fears that I have. But what ever it is that helped me kill that pig to day i don't care. I have proven tho Ralph now that i am a man and can Kill. Although once myself and the hunters return, Ralph get mad because we let the fire die; and they saw a ship. You think that Ralph would be happy because maybe some meat in the younger kids diet would help them, and they might not be so sickly. I know that piggy is mad at me for slapping him, but i don't get why he has to act like he does. is it really necessary for him to whine like that?

Sticking the Pig by Jenn Beach

My blood began to rush the moment i heard the first paint patter of hooves scuttling through the creepers. And I wasn't alone this time, I had the entire choir watching, anticipating, just waiting for me to choke again! The sweltering heat felt cold against my skin as my eyes burned with determination and my blood boiled just underneath my pale tortured skin.
We moved in on the little sqealer until we completely had it closed in. No escape. He was mine. The first hit had injured him so I knew that he didn't have a chance. We were going to have meat tonight. My senses went wild as I cut his throat and watched his life flowing out of him in a thick red river. We tied him up and brought him back to the platform. Everyone was going to be so proud of em and my success! They'll lift me up and chant my name! And they'll give me the conch... Stupid Ralph! All he cares about is the fire! What good is a fire if you can't cook anything in it? I guess I should have maybe left a few kids, it would have been nice to have gone home on that ship. But where did Piggy get off giving me lip? I sure put him in his place. I'm getting real sick of those two constantly trying to make me look bad. I should be the real leader. I'm the one who gave them meat!

Chapter 4--Alice

I GOT HIM!

I finally did it. I finally killed the pig! With our clay paint camouflage, which was my idea, was the best. And now that i finally killed the pig, I go back to find Ralph mad at me and the others for not watching the fire. We were only gone for what..an hour, it's really not that big of a deal. He made us feel horrible about it though. We finally get some meat and all we do is get yelled at for something else. And who does that FATTY think he is anyway, standing up to me like that. When I slapped him and knocked his glasses off his face, boy I showed him. He's always complaining like a little girl i needed to knock some sense into him. Oh and another thing, that kid Ralph, lets just say he's not my favorite person on the island.

Piggy Goes Oinkers Emily C.

Okay...I don't want to leave this island. I'm having too much fun toying with Piggy. It's true that I made samaneric come with me to go kill the pig, but only because I saw the ship and wanted the fire to go out.
Piggy really needs to grow up. He didn't help with anything so he doesn't get any meat. Oh goodness the meat. It was a great feeling cutting the pig's throat and having it spew blood all over me.
I want to be in control, so Ralph has to be out of the picture. I have to find a way to get all the younguns to trust me and start following my orders. I need a plan...

Stupid Piggy Sam Kaplan

Why does Piggy feel he can shoot his mouth off whenever he likes? He knows no one likes him. He is just a fat blob who never has anything beneficial to say. He can't even enjoy the fact that my hunters and me went out and killed a boar for all of us. But i guess he cant help but feel for his own kind. He makes me so mad! Hitting him was one of the best things i have done on this island. Not to mention cracking his glasses!! Lets see that Fatty complain about my successes now!!!!!!!

A Lot of Blood Gretchen Stricker

The pigs did not even see us as we surrounded them. It was all my idea to use the clay face paint as camouflage. When we come back, Ralph gets mad at me for taking the twins with me. We finally caught a pig, and gosh was there a lot of blood. We killed the pig and all he can do is be mad I needed those hunters to catch the pig. If it weren’t for me the group wouldn’t have any meat. And then the good-for-nothing fatty had to step in and yell some more. I don’t like that Ralph at all, not one bit.

Jen M. Chapter 4

I felt like a different person behind that mask of makeup...I was unstoppable! There was no way those piggys were gonna see me when I crept up behind them. Boy, when we made that kill - it was exhilerating. To think...we had meat! If only Ralph didn't have to go an ruin it by making me and the hunters feel bad we let the fire go out. I mean, its not our fault, and it was only an hour or so. I mean c'mon. And the nerve Piggy, excuse me, FATTY, had for standing up to me! I showed him when I knocked his glasses off. Man that was funny.

That meat tasted amazing, after so long of just eating fruit, nuts, and fish. Not nearly as amazing as watching the tables turn on Ralph...it seems as if the rest of the boys are starting to follow my lead now and look up to me...

I got a pig! Ch 4

I’m gonna get a pig, I need to get a pig before we are rescued. Oh good! White and red clay. Oh and there is some charcoal. This will be perfect, well maybe if I had some green, but I feel powerful with my new mask.

So I’m gonna go on a hunt, but I need all of my choir to do this. Yes! I cut the pig throat. Everyone is gonna think so highly of me now. Why is everyone so gloom? We have meat to eat now.

So a ship came by, now I feel kinda bad. But hey, I was the one to cut the pigs throat, and they are eating because of me. Damn that fat Piggy, he is so annoying. I’m happy I got to punch and hit him. Everyone thought it was funny when I pretended to be Piggy. Wow, Ralph is really upset about the whole fire thing though. Oh well, he can't ruin my good mood.
