Jack's outrage in Lord of the Flies

Writer's picture: It'sMyBlyth It'sMyBlyth

“ Jack’s face disappeared under a blush of mortification”


I can't believe I didn't get to be chief, this is outrageous I'm head leader of the choir boys I am the perfect fit.  Piggy walked by as Jack’s face was still pale white. He mumbled under his breath.

‘So happy you're not chief, no one likes you’.

 I looked at Piggy and said with the deepest voice I possibly could,

‘I beg your pardon.’

Piggy looked at me with great fear in his eye I thought to myself for a second, is it worth it ?

The answer inside my head was yes so I bursted out,

‘Your just happy I'm not chief or your fat pigish like body would be off this island.

Piggy looked frightened and as I lunged at him Ralph mysteriously popped out of nowhere and said:

‘Is there an issue that needs to be resolved?’

I spoke back to him as politely as I possibly could.

‘No sir no issue at all.’

As I stumbled away I thought to myself, that it would be a good idea to get some alone time. I started going up the mountain thinking if I should just jump and end it all, or be the bigger of the two people and try my best to fit in. When I reached the top I sat there looking over the edge an stared into the bright blue water, and the crystal clear sky. With the heat from the sun made me look like I just took a bath in my own sweat. I lay back and went into a deep sleep.  

I dream about being back in my own home with my mother and father, and be the lead singer in the choir boys.  Then it happened the dream turned into a nightmare, all I could see is an image of Ralph saying

‘ just try, just try, just try.’

Seconds after I’m awoke by a great big thud. They have found me I thought, they are going to kill me. I saw Jack walk upon me again. He placed the dry logs and dry leaves on the ground and said.

‘Oh so sorry it seems like I have awoke you.’

I replied

‘Not a problem, it seems like I have been sleeping in a fire pit.’

We both laughed, and from that point on we became the best of friends.
