The cry of the hunters.

Chapter 12: Cry of the Hunters
Perspective: Piggy

Last night I hid in the thicket, near the ferns where he slept. Samneric gave me some of the meat from their "new tribes" meal. Yes, Samneric were forced to join Jack’s tribe. But they told me that Roger prepared another stick sharpened at both ends for me. But I didn't understandwhat that meant.

They told me that Jack’s tribe were gonna form a cordon and and start marching through the jungle to try to find me. And it happened to! They were chasing All through the jungle! When I got to the beach, I saw a naval officer in white drill and wearing many epaulettes.

Jack and his hunters were chasing me and appeared on the beach with his hunters right after me. Persival tried to introdues himself, but he forgot his name when he was talking to the officer. That is how long we've been stuck on this island.

I realised that I was responsible and started sobbing. The officer, who thought that us british boys would be able to go longer without turning on each other, felt sorry for me. So now on the ride back, he let me sit in the front with him, while all the other boys are crammed in the back.
