Talking Pig

Talking Pig
Chapter 8: Gift for the Darkness
Perspective: Simon

I couldn’t believe it Jack actually left our group and went to go start his own camp. Piggy was extremely excited he became an entire new person. He was actually talking and sharing his own ideas. Piggy wasn’t acting shy and demure anymore. Piggy suggested that we made a fire down on shore. So that we didn’t have to walk all the way up to the fire and that way it was easier to take ca of. Pretty soon some of the boys were leaving because they didn’t like the taboos. Eventually it was left with Ralph, Piggy, Sam n’ Eric, and Me. All the others were acting greedy and demonic.

When Ralph told us to collect fire wood I went out to the forest. I saw Jack and the other boys killing a pig. I saw them bring it to the fire and then they were cutting it up. Jack paunched the pigs stomach it was disgusting. The pig was corpulent and it looked like it was hard to cut. Then they all left to raid the other camp to get fire wood and to recruit other boys to come kill pigs with them.

I went over to the spot where they stuck the pigs head on the stick. I was thinking about how everyone was going crazy. Then the pig head started to talk to me it was the Lord of the Flies. He was saying that the boys were going to kill me if I didn’t leave right then and then he listed the names out. He told me not to put the head on but I was too tempted to so I went ahead and out it on. The Lord of the Flies told me to leave but I didn’t listen so he told me once more that my friends that I trusted this whole time were going to kill me but I stayed I was hypnotized.
