Lord of The Flies by William Golding #2
Chapter 2 - Fire on The Mountain

I Have Good Ideas Too....
by Piggy

So today this little boy Roger, told all of us that there was a beastie, you know, a snake-like thing. He said he saw it in the woods but nobody really believed him. Anyways nobody knows that we're stuck in this island. Who knows when we'd be rescued! Ralph said that his father was in the navy and he says that the Queen has a big room full of maps and all the islands in the world is drawn there. So there's hope for us and his dad's ship would find us sooner or later. Ralph then decided to make a fire on the mountain so that a ship could notice us by seeing the smoke from the fire. When we decided to make a fire, all of the boys went crazy and were capering around the island. All of the boys were being errant. Once the boys got on the top of the mountain they started to gather dried bark and dried leaves from the tree. They needed to light the fire so the guys wanted to use my specs. I wanted to go away and run, but I was surrounded so I didn't have a chance. Jack snatched the glasses from me and now I could hardly see. My asthma even got me because of the fire.

I then got the conch but Jack got annoyed of me and told me to shut up. Nobody listens to me! Ralph took the conch again. I wanted to say something, but Jack looked at me as if I shouldn't. So I didn't. Anyways, I took the conch and tried to speak; but nobody wanted to listen to me. I lost my temper and tried to tell everyone how I felt.. but since Ralph said fire.. all of the kids goes running off to the mountain. I then told everyone of what I felt; how I was supposed to get everyone's names, since Ralph assigned that to me. They all ran off, so how could I? But then Ralph pinched the conch away from me and didn't want to listen anymore. But like, I have good ideas too.. not just Ralph or Jack! I mean, we should've made shelters by the beach... Why can't people listen to me too?
