Journal Entry 1
Piggy

I am angry beyond resoning, I trip over a massive tree root, I felt rage toward jack how he had embarased me in front of all the hunters, as I take my specs off to clean the remaning lense I start to lamement. As I stand in the forest I hear the conch being blown, so furious i march toward the beach.

At the beach, Ralph say that they have not done anything that they said that they would do they dont do any work at building shelters, they do not gather drinking water, they ignore the signal fire, and they do not even use the toilet area. He reminds us of the importance of the signal fire, and then we say that there are no beasties in the island, i second that.

One of the littluns speaks up and claims that he has actually seen a beast. When the others press him and ask where it could hide during the daytime, he suggests that it might come up from the ocean at night. Suddenly, Jack proclaims that if there is a beast, he and his hunters will hunt it down and kill it. Jack torments me and then he runs away Eventually, only Ralph, me, and Simon are left. In the distance, the hunters who have followed Jack dance and chant.

Piggy urges Ralph to blow the conch shell and summon the boys back to the group, but Ralph is afraid that the summons will go ignored and that any vestige of order will then disintegrate. He tells Piggy and Simon that he might relinquish leadership of the group, but his friends reassure him that the boys need his guidance. As the group drifts off to sleep, the sound of a littlun crying echoes along the beach.
