Chapter 2: fire on the mountain
Writing from the perspective of: Ralph
I had just came back from our exploring around the mountain. When we arrived I suspected that they hadn't done anything at all but That was ok it was only the first day. "We need to signal the boats in so let's make a fire" I said. The boys cheered loudly at having something to do. I and all the other boys ran up to the mountain in a officious, and ebullience manner. As we reached the peak of the mountain induced all of the people to get to work. We worked fast, and hard and finally had a big pile. I had noticed that piggy decided not to show up, always trying to be to bossy and break all the rules. It wasn't that I didn't like him it was that After we had made the pile we realized all at once that we had no way to start a fire "Anyone got and matches" Jack said "Maybe there's some matches in the plane"Then I saw piggy come up the hill, and at once all the commotion stopped "Piggy's glasses, we can use them to start a fire" Jack jumped on piggy and pinched his specs. jack used the glasses as a magnifying glass to focus the light onto a moldy piece of wood that easily caught on fire. As the flames shot upward the boys and I shouted out in accomplishment. The excitement did not last long among us. We soon saw we would need more smoke and a lot more wood to keep it burning. As the fire leaped out of the pile and into the forest, I knew that we should of been more carful but Jack just accused piggy of everything. "Shut up!" He said. I though this was getting a little out of hand "Just come up to me all errant and then steal my specs!" piggy said. it went on like this for a while. With people yelling at each other and piggy got all mad and though we were acting childish.
