Well this is my first LotF fanfic. In case you haven't guessed it is a "girl an the island " This story won't be more than twelve chapters long and I am hoping to update at least once a week. Please fell free to give feedback. I know this chapters short but they will get better. I have combined bits from both the book and the 1990 movie

Two boys walked along the edge of the water, deep in conversation. The first was tall and slender, with fair hair and bright eyes. This was Ralph. The other boy was rather fat and wore huge, thick specs. His name wasn't known, but from the snatches of conversation appeared to be Piggy.
Silently the figure who was watching them crept back into the shadows, intent on staying hidden. It curled into the mass of leaves and vines and slept.
Jeanette was not happy. She had been in a plane crash, was extremely hungry and right as she was starting to drift into sleep, a loud trumpet noise blew. Then came the voices. She crept towards the edge of the forest and peeked between the ferns. It was that boy Piggy and, of course, her loathsome brother.
Now, some may argue that she mustn't really hate Ralph, for she was his sister, but she did. She hated him with every fiber of her being. He thought he was so great just because he went to military school. When ever he came home he would act like he was some great leader and ordered her around. What could she do but obey him? He wasn't cruel to her but he wasn't exactly nice. She was just an "annoying, bratty twin sister".
Suddenly the bushes about ten feet away started to rustle, and a small boy broke through, running towards the sound. In fact, about fifteen boys had already gathered around her brother. A few minutes later a group of around eight or so boys could be seen walking towards the group.
They were different from the others, not just in how they dressed but how they acted. All of them were clothed, head to toe, in black and were walking in two straight lines behind a leader. Jeanette watched intently as the group drew closer and began to note their appearance. The leader was a tall boy who looked to be about a year older than her. His hair was extremely blond and his face was thin and pale, but not in a sickly way. He introduced himself to the group as Jack, and soon the "assembly" continued.
Soon enough the group decided they needed a leader and elected Ralph. Jeanette laughed bitterly to herself as she sat. Of course they would pick Ralph. He seemed to be he natural choice. Jeanette made up her mind that she would stay as far away from the group as possible, unless it was absolutely necessary.
Meanwhile, the boys at the assembly were not aware that they were being watched. Everything in the assembly was going fine and it wasn't until someone mentioned creating a list of names that Ralph's expression turned worried.
"Hey, has anyone seen a girl on the island?" A small crease formed between his eyebrows. " My sister was on the plane, too. Oh no what if something's happened to her!"
"What do we care about some girl?" The question went aound the circle. What good would a girl do? She would probably just whine and complain and ruin the fun.
"Well, if we had a girl, we could make her cook for us, and wash our stuff and watch over the littluns."
"Yea," chimed another boy. "That would be great. We could watch the fire and play and swim and stuff!"
Soon all the boys were cheering. After all, who wouldn't want someone else to do almost everything for you?
Jeanette had heard enough. There was absolutely no way she was going to be some sort of maid for these boys. She could survive on her own. Maybe. She just had to make sure she wasn't caught. With that in mind she slinked back into the jungle to find a suitable place rest.
