Fire On The Mountain

Simon's Journal

After everyone had settled down, everyone started fighting about all sorts of different things. Ralph wanted to use the conch as some kind of a microphone, so whoever had the conch got to speak. Usually i would agree with something like this, but then i started to think. What if some boys are not as well known as the other boys, and never get a chance to speak. Then piggy starts yelling about how we are never going to be found because no one knows we ever crashed. First of all, we are going to get rescued because if a plain goes missing, people will go searching for it. I feel like piggy is just to stressful and should relax a little. After all those crazy arguments were over, a little boy started talking about how he saw a snake like monster crawling around. Although everybody knows that this story is fake of course, everyone seemed to actually listen to what the little boy had to say. We all started thinking about how we are actually going to get rescued because nobody knows our exact location, so we decided to make a fire. We found some wood that was scraped by the plain by the top of a mountain, so we decided to use it. At first the fire was burning very well, but there was no smoke. So we put in some green wood, hoping it would ignite and create smoke. We knew we couldn't have all of us watch the fire, so we split up into groups. The groups were pretty good and were containing the fire, until one group was to lazy to actually watch the fire. They let the fire get out of control and burnt down many trees.
