Blog 10- The Last One (Samneric's Perspective)

Piggy has no glasses. We have no fire. They stole it. They stole out fire. We don't know how we are going to be able to be rescued if we don't have fire. If they would have just asked we would have given them fire. We would have willingly given it to them. But instead, they stole it! Those savages stole our fire! And they stole poor Piggy's glasses!

Ralph called an assembly which only we, Piggy, Ralph, and a few littluns attended. He said that we would go to talk to Jack about the specks. Piggy said he would talk to him and tell Jack that he HAD to give them back because it is the right thing to do. But Jack won't care whats right. We went to castle rock and began to cross over a very thin little bridge of rocks. Then we heard a voice which sounded like Roger.

"Halt! Who goes there?"

Ralph yelled up at him, "You can see who I am! Stop being silly!"

He told us that he wasn't supposed to let us in; Chief's orders. Ralph began blowing the conch. He said he was calling an assembly. Roger picked up a stone and threw it at us, but he missed. Then Jack and a few hunters came out of the jungle. We were trapped. Jack's crew was on either side of us all. Ralph started yelling at Jack, calling him a thief. That got Jack angry and they began swinging their spears at each other like swords. Piggy reminded Ralph what we came there for, and Ralph stopped swinging his spear. He told Jack, "You have to give them back! Piggy can't see with out them! You aren't playing the game--"

Jack yelled to his group to grab us and tie us up. They did as they were told. The anger escalated until Ralph got angry and yelled, "You're a beast and a swine and a bloody, bloody thief!"

Then he ran and charged at Jack with his spear. We were scared. Jack charged too and they fought with their spears. Then Piggy got up and tried talking to the savages, but they all just laughed at him. He continued to talk even through their laughter. He just talked and talked and talked and held up the conch... until Roger pushed all his weight on the lever. The huge rock came crashing down the cliff and sent Piggy and the conch flying over the cliff. Piggy flew off the cliff and down 40 feet until he landed with a crash on the rocks below. His head split open and stuff started pouring out and turned red. We were so scared at that point. The crashing waves came and washed what was left of Piggy out to sea. Then Jack threw his spear at Ralph and pinned him in his ribs. Ralph stumbled and then began to run. He ran as fast as he could. When he was out of sight Jack came to us and questioned us asking what we meant by coming with spears. We told him thats not the way, but he wouldn't listen. Then Roger took up the questioning; or we should say beating.

We were forced to join Jack and the savages. Now we were forced to be savages too.
