Days After my Death.
I can't quite remember my death. I was terrified to watch my own punctured body float out to sea, and for the first time I felt pity for myself. The next day I happened to come across Piggy and Ralph. They didn't see me. I forgot for a moment that I was dead. Then as I drifted out into my own thoughts something Ralph said caught my attention.
"Piggy."
"Uh?"
"That was Simon."
"You said that before."
"Piggy."
"Uh?"
"That was murder."
I was murdered! just thought was a bit queer. I needed to know more since I didn't remember what happened to me! Piggy started yelling. Said something about everything being an accident. Ha! how can a murder be an accident. I watched my old friends as they quarreled about the whole scene being an accident or a murder. I would say that I was murdered if I remembered. And Ralph said this.
" You were outside. Outside the circle. You never really came in. Didn't you see what we-what they did? Didn't you see Piggy?"
Soon a flood of memories and pain came back to me. The sounds. Blood everywhere. The faces of the painted savages. It was too much to bear so I drifted away to my special place.
I was still in shock about the fact I was dead and how I died. I still didn't know why I was killed though. I visited Jack's tribe. I wished that I could scare them like they say ghosts can, but I guess not. Those rascals deserve the scare of a life! Jack's tribe in my opinion was chaotic. They are all better off sticking with Ralph. They've all lost their minds! I've been thinking more clearly since I've been dead. I can see who really is the beast. The Lord of the Flies was right. You can't kill the beast. I learnt that the hard way. Then they say that I was the "beast" in disguise! Ha! If they only knew I probably wouldn't be dead now. Jack is a monster for sure. He tied up poor Wilfred. Why can't he be more just like Ralph.
That night I heard Jack, Maurice and Roger discuss something about taking Ralph's fire. I wanted to go tell Ralph, but remembered I couldn't. If only they knew what was coming for them. I followed as the Three savages as fast as I could. I thought ghosts didn't have the living disadvantages of a human but they do. I ran into about five trees! I go to the scene just in time to see Jack dive into the hut. All I could hear was screaming and kicking. Obviously there was some struggling. Then Jack Jumped out of the tent and ran down the beach as fast as he could. The heads of Ralph, Piggy and Samneric popped out of the tent and watched as Jack went away with the fire. Piggy's glasses. This was nonsense, savagery. Now they've all decided to become thieves too! What are the grownups going to think f them if they are ever found? I wish mum was here. Or even father he would have saved me and then I would be safe in their arms at home. What will mum say when she finds out I'm no longer alive?
