LOTF: Chapter 1

Chapter Title: Sound Of the Shell

Perspective: Piggy

Any name but that name

My plane just crashed and I find myself all alone in this island. The first thing I noticed about the island is that there are fronds here and the forest had many intricacies. I was incredulous that I was actually alive after that. I keep walking until I found this guy. I asked his name and he answered with Ralph I waited for him to ask me my name in return but he just stood up and walked away. Then he started running so I ran with him. Now that im brreathing hard im telling him I can't run because I have asthma and he says something about Ass-mar. Then I said if there are more kids we need to know all there names. Since he didn't ask for my name I just say I don't care what they call me, as long as they don't call me that they use to at school. I told him what they use to call me and he just starts to laugh. I told him not to tell the others but he kept on laughing.

Then after that we just walked along the beach. Until we came upon a shell. Ralph picked it up and I told him to be careful. All he said was shut up. Then he told me that he would use it to call the others if there any others. So then he just blew into the shell like a trumpet. Nothing happened in a while then some kids started to appear out of nowhere.

After a while this thing came out of the forest. I was specious on how loud he can blow the shell. Kids were wearing all black with hambone frills and they wore hats with a silver badge on it. Except one. One was wearing a hat but instead of a silver badge it was golden. It seemed like he was the precentor. He asked if there any grownups. Ralph said no thats why we have a meeting.

Merridew complained on why his name has to be Jack and he also told me to shut up but he added a fatty at the end. Ralph stood up for me and said hes not fatty. I gained a little respect for him when he said that. Then he said its Piggy. All therespect I gained for him was just lost and more after he said that. Then we voted for chief. Not a surpise that it ended up being Ralph. Then Jack, Ralph, and Simon headed off to see if this really was an island. They told me I can't come even though I was with Ralph the longest and I was there when he found the conch. I was just humiliated after that. But I'll show them.
