Dear Diary, Still clenching my old friends glasses jack walked blindly onto the boat as the rest of the hunters followed. I followed after them onto the boat but I was not one of them. I stepped onto the boat facing Jack and the hunters. Samneric walked over to my side of the boat and sat by me. The adult men let us wash off and gave us some haircuts. I looked in the mirror and saw myself for the first time in months. Darker hair and skin I had with cuts and scrapes all about my body. I noticed jack wouldn’t look in the mirror along with some others and I said afraid of what you become. I made sure to speak up any chance I had like my old friend said. Jack said nothing, nothing ever since we got onto the boat and nothing now. I made sure to watch my surroundings. The officers continued to asked what had happened on the island and I told them everything. The rest of the boys were isolated and I was left alone once again. I enjoyed the silence on the boat and looking at myself in

Dear Diary, I can finally see, but I don’t like what I am seeing. Simon and I having a hard time figuring out where we are, but whatever. I see ralph going through some troubles. Jack and his tribe took my glasses, but they are still blind. The boys know what they are doing but it is as if they can't see what they are. I only wish Simon and I were there to go home with them, but I sure do not wish they were with us.

Dear Diary, Yesterday I was attacked by jack and his tribe. Even though it was useless I told ralph to blow the conch. We have to go get my specs I told them. We all went to the castle rock to confront them and to get my specs back. I notice a big rock being guarded by someone, but I could just see the figure.   When we get there ralph tries to talk to jack but he would listen. Then ralph and jack begin to argue   and I tried to stop them but they would stop. All I rember is the rock and I know who let it go. Roger

Dear Diary, Nothing happened yesterday all we did was dance and and have fun. I wasn’t there I was far away and so was ralph. Jack's tribe were the ones who killed Simon. The day passed by fast but the night was still. Voices arose in the darkness calling my name and the next thing I knew I was being attacked. It it was the beast. When the beast went for my glasses I knew it was no beast. It was Jack Meriddew. How will I see and the fire is gone. Jack's tribe took everything.

Dear Diary, After building the fire Ralph and I sat down and watched the fire rise and die. We was watching the waves and decided to go in. Ralph splashed and splashed while forgetting my specs. I watched as the little uns began to disappear, but didn’t say a word. I suggested we should follow, but ralph was a little skeptical. We followed anyways and we had some meat and ralph actually enjoyed my company. I felt Jack's envy, but ignored it. We all danced ate meat and even killed the beast. I wish Simon were there, but he disappeared. hopefully he comes back from where ever he was.

chapter 8

Dear Diary, After waiting in terror for hours, the little uns and I decide to go to sleep. I wake up next morning to see Ralph, Roger, and Jack speaking of the beastie. Jack grabs the conch and speaks freely of his opinions. Jack decides to leave because of Ralphs cowardliness and no one wanted him as leader. I talk to Ralph about the problem and he still feels troubled. I give him some ideas on what to do like maybe building a fire here instead of on the mountain. I feel unsatisfied with ralph. Ralph didn’t speak up to jack. I noticed some of the other kids were cowards also they didn’t want to vote jack as leader, but later that night they wandered off to join him. I don’t think they are thinking clearly. There are so many what if that’s pop into my mind. And and jack got some nerve corrupting   what we had. We are going to have some challenging of leadership and I hope ralph wins. I would be banished if jack became the leader. Tomorrow we will hopefully get things done

chapter 7

Dear diary,   I had one eye and two ears. The eye I could see with stay up into the sky. My two ears stayed alert, Listening for any shifts in the foliage. I kept the little uns near me till sunrise. We all tried to fall asleep, but the horrors of the beastie kept us awake. We sat wondering if the boys were coming back or not. We spent most of the morning eating fruit and drinking water. In the afternoon the sun had pierced through and we sat in our shelters wondering when ralph and the hunters will come back. I managed to keep the little uns calm, but Sam and Eric wilted in their terror.   I'm worried the boys won't come back and I will be stuck with the little uns. ralph and the hunters barely listen to me how am I supposed to get the little uns to listen to me any longer. I don’t even know tomorrow will be like. I won't even be able to see it.
